Shape Of My Heart（Sting) - Kent Nishimura - Acoustic Fingerstyle Guitar 

Sounds killer in my headphones!

that was f.... amaizing!!!

Cmon Sting - leave this a comment… isn’t he amazing…❤

That part on 3:41 - 3:44 - those overtones are genius - pure gold.

When you realize this guy is only 19 years old but already a legend.

The most perfect fingerstyle guitarist on youtube

This man is literally a master at his craft… As a guitar player, he is truly inspiring. Keep doing what you do Kent! Cheers from the USA

What is better than a Kent Nishimura video? A video with more than one Kent Nishimura in it.

ありがとう ！！！ Arigatō! ! ! Merci !!! Thanks !!!!!

I wouldn’t have thought this even possible . To play the melody line over that complicated guitar part without a hitch. Absolutely incredible!

best cover ever.

Awesome arrangement man.

3:43 the best overtone i heard anyone play while playing the whole song as a soloist

This song is a masterpiece and he’s a genius.

There are not enough words to describe how beautifully this was done.

My mind refuses to accept this is possible

Sting needs to see and hear this

Who keeps coming back to this? More incredible each time. Headphones essential ❤

Sounds so rich. This is gold.

Damn! He is doing harmony, melody...and percussion😲

Flawless like velvet.

Mesmerizing. True beauty.

Yes I think he is already playing guitar legend

Kent, you are an impressive young man. While many men, young and old, waste their time on booze, drugs, video games, worthless women…you have developed an obvious god-given talent. I know this song, and you are better than Sting’s accompaniment. It’s not close! Amazing. Well done. Please keep it up.

He is an awesome guitarist in Japan！

Wow, just wow! Speachless and not worhty to comment even 🤔🙄 God Bless you man!

Kent you are really a very cool guitarist and in your covers you use a lot of complex but very beautiful guitar playing techniques. I'm not a professional guitarist, but I graduated from music school 28 years ago on bass guitar, acoustic and electric guitar and have been playing guitar and learning new playing techniques all these years. I learned one important playing technique from you: for example, when you move from the 3rd to the 7th fret, you don’t slide along the strings, but raise your fingers a little, above the strings and switch to another fret, so you don’t hear this unpleasant gnashing of the strings. Kent, I listened to your covers on RU-vid many times and I understood why your music sounds beautiful, and flows like a musical river smoothly and constantly, there are no extra sounds and this is especially noticeable when you play some kind of lyrical music. I am convinced that you studied a lot and diligently, and brought your playing technique to the ideal. Once again, you still young, but very cool and talented young guitarist. Develop your talent further and delight our ears with new melodies.

I can hear music beyond guitar in his playing

Beautiful,and perfectly and played with feeling,,,,lovely to listen to,,,,,,,,,❤

Light into the world❤

ついに来た。。。🤣 この曲は、古い思い出に新しい思い出が重なって聴くたびにジーンとくるので、普段は敢えて聴かないようにしているのです（笑） でも、、、 やっぱりケント君のアレンジは最高ですね✨ Stingの声のイメージのまま、原曲と変わらない印象…って言うか、アコギバージョンでの完成された１曲で、その完成形が、ありえないくらい素晴らしいです🙌🏻 マンゴーギターの音もほんとに優しくて好き💕 いつかStingと共演して欲しいなぁ〜😆🙌🏻💕

Goosebumps every time

Wow! I’m speechless!

Out of this world

Kent is my favorite guitarist on RU-vid now

Great

I want to thank you. I was looking for the perfect version of this instrumental to use for a slideshow at my grandfathers wake. Thank you so much.

Floats uprightly and keeps us all sailing

Une bête technique, un sens musical hors norme, et un toucher de folie...

Incredible. I hope Sting hears and sees this, soon. You are a gift to us, Kent. Thanks for your work and sharing.

This! Blew me away

You are blessed to create such beauty on a rainy day

A guitar that beautiful deserves to be played by a master. And it was.

Kent nishimura is solely responsible for the expansion of my listening catalogue in the past three years since I have found him, he is a generational talent, and we are lucky to have free access to such quality. Cheers Kent!

That left hand knows just where it needs to be, but that right hand is creating some beautiful artwork. That's what it looks like when you're perfectly comfortable with the instrument. It's a beautiful thing.

Wow so beautiful…

チャンネルの存在を知って色々遡って見てるけど、見るたび演奏に驚いてしかもこれ18歳の演奏と知り脳内で何かが分泌されるのを感じる程衝撃を覚えてる。自分のギターに申し訳なくなってきた。。

スティングに発見されますように

I've just discovered you today thanks to RU-vid algorithm and i can't believe your song selection and God-given talent. I am blown away and loving every second of every song. I can't wait to hear more of you forever!

just amazing.. just amazing..

OUTSTANDING! You do Sting & Dominic Miller proud!

Flawless. Jaw drops.

Wow... Just... Wow! and the shaker! Ha! Didn't expect that!

I love Kent playing. Other fingertype guitarists ususally try to flex, Kent allow original melody shine.

Amazing! Amazing!!! Absolutely AMAZING!!

ギター１本で演奏しているのに多重録音したと錯覚するほど音の厚みが素晴らしい。 最高です。

Best acoustic artist for me !!!

I bet sting would have chills listening to this. Awesome!

i can hear 2 guitars , a bass and beatbox.. legendary skill.. superb talent.. a true Master

Fingerstyle world ask for mercy this guy its just amazing ❤❤

Holy what the DAMN

Even the guitars are happy to spent their entire lives with you.

Thank You

absolutely killer nice

Finger ballet! Mesmerising!

The percussion is really amazing , you can hear the shaker

this is better than the original in my opinion. super smooth. amazing job as always

I'm scared of asking for tabs, this is just too much... Absolutely brillant!

Playing 2 guitar parts, different melodies, at once. This is insanely difficult and impressive. Wow!

As impossible as it sounds, Kent's playing keeps getting better. The recording and tone on this tune are just incredible.

You see another Kent Nishimura video upload, you just sit back, listen, and prepare to be mesmerised. Extraordinary talent

thanks kent...make my day happy today

これはすごいぞ オリジナルを喰いそうな勢いですね。 聞き入ってしまいました

No matter which song he playin, when he enter with main melody line after intro I must pause the video because I'm stunned so much I must take a deep breath.

Best cover this song on RU-vid 👏👏👏👏

flawless...

神童すぎる。

THANK YOU FOR EXISTING! YOU ARE A TRUE GENIUS.

As a song selection, u can’t go wrong with Sting… daunting and challenging though. Thanks for sharing your talent

supersupersupersuper

simply perfect

Kent, your selection of songs is as impeccable as your playing.. I always jump on your videos, and you've NEVER let me down. Keep on being amazing! Thanks so much!

Thank you kent. Listening with eyes closed expresses so much more than words ever could, in that space you merged and became the music you were playing, a most wonderful gift to your 'self' and to the listeners. Again, Thank you ...

Kent, somewhere along the way, you've become a master. So grateful.

Your playing is ridiculously clean, way beyond the studio recording standard!

Kent, you are a legend of legends. Everything you play is absolutely perfect.

Stunningly beautiful.

Juz 1 word... 'LEGEND'

スティングの声が聴こえて来た。 いつもナイスな選曲と素晴らしい演奏ありがとう。

Sting has never sung so beautifully

Kent has no qualms about adding a second guitar if he thinks it will make his rendition better. As a fan, I would already be happy with just the one guitar. But for him the song comes first so he made it two. Fantastic! You are such a gem, sir.

Sting should see this.

カッコイイ‼️

For when are you comming to play in Spain?? ( Mallorca pleaseee) u r incredible 😮👏👏👏👏

Sounds good.

I continue to be amazed (and entertained) by Kent’s mastery of the guitar. Good job and thanks.

Just wow 😳 A legendary song played with such skill and talent 👏🏻

🤍🤎💚“Shape Of My Heart"💚🤎🤍 He deals the cards as a meditation And those he plays never suspect He doesn't play for the money he wins He doesn't play for respect He deals the cards to find the answer The sacred geometry of chance [Studio version:] The hidden law of a probable outcome [Live version:] The hidden laws of a probable outcome The numbers lead a dance I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier I know that the clubs are weapons of war I know that diamonds mean money for this art But that's not the shape of my heart He may play the Jack of diamonds He may lay the Queen of spades He may conceal a King in his hand While the memory of it fades I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier I know that the clubs are weapons of war I know that diamonds mean money for this art But that's not the shape of my heart That's not the shape, the shape of my heart And if I told you that I loved you You'd maybe think there's something wrong I'm not a man of too many faces The mask I wear is one But those who speak know nothing And find out to their cost Like those who curse their luck in too many places And those who fear are lost I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier I know that the clubs are weapons of war I know that diamonds mean money for this art But that's not the shape of my heart That's not the shape of my heart That's not the shape, the shape of my heart

Amazing Kent! My suggestion is America’s Ventura Highway

I can hear Sting singing! Wow!
