Shelter - Porter Robinson & Madeon - Fingerstyle Guitar Cover 

too good

I love this!!

This is awesome man. Stoked you covered this song.

Things that could make a man cry: 1. Onions 2. Mom taking away your PS4 3. This song

*PLAY THIS AT MY FUNERAL CAUSE ITS SO GOD DANG PRETTY*

I just wanna say thank you sooo much for the music and the tabs!! In exactly 2 hours I'll play that song at my high school show so wish me good luck!..... also, you're a god at guitar, you are just so amazing, don't stop

Beautiful. I still haven't heard the original cause I know I'll cry.

I could never find the right way to tell you Have you noticed I've been gone? 'Cause I left behind the home that you made me But I will carry it along And it's a long way forward, so trust in me I'll give them shelter, like you've done for me And I know, I'm not alone, you'll be watching over us Until you're gone When I'm older, I'll be silent beside you I know words won't be enough And they won't need to know the names on our faces But they will carry on for us And it's a long way forward, so trust in me I'll give them shelter, like you've done for me And I know, I'm not alone, you'll be watching over us Until you're gone Oh it's a long way forward, trust in me I'll give them shelter, like you've done for me And I know, I'm not alone, you'll be watching over us Until

I could never find the right way to tell you...🎵 how good this is bro!

The time i first watched the official shelter video, my chest tightened and i cried a bit. This cover brings all those feelings back... damn... you are too good at this.. T_T

now this is MUSICK (crying)

[Instrumentals] [Verse 1] I could never find the right way to tell you Have you noticed I've been gone? 'Cause I left behind the home that you made me But I will carry it along [Chorus] And it's a long way forward, so trust in me I'll give them shelter, like you've done for me And I know, I'm not alone, you'll be watching over us Until you're gone [Instrumentals] [Verse 2] When I'm older, I'll be silent beside you I know words won't be enough And they won't need to know our names or our faces But they will carry on for us [Chorus] And it's a long way forward, so trust in me I'll give them shelter, like you've done for me And I know, I'm not alone, you'll be watching over us Until you're gone

I just wanna say, this song and more specifically this cover got me back into guitar. 3 years ago when this came out I was just going into college and didn't have much money. I broke down and bought a cheap guitar and started playing and now I can play most of Eddie's songs and have been buying, learning and watching his covers since. Thank you for reigniting my passion for playing. I will always be a fan, keep it up!!!

Oh my god... this is one of my favorite songs and I was wondering if anyone had played a guitar version, but I wasn't expecting something like that! Beautiful. Very beautiful.

Great! I'm planning to play this song with my guitar at my school's talent show X3

Me: I can do that too with my guitar! 2 minutes later Doctor: So where did this all start?

bloody brilliant, love it so much. Shelter quickly became one of my favourite songs, so I really appreciate this arrangement. keep it up!!

This brings back nearly all the feels I had when years ago I listened to/watched Shelter for the 1st time

this is beauty this is art this is sparta

no way, I finally found something can be stuck in my head.. (crying)

Those natural harmonics at the end were sick never stop playing eddie ^^

I always come back and listen to this song whenever I'm sad and feeling down, and it always gives me hope to continue what's life to offer me. I'll be walking and face all what's in front me

those strings look so trippy haha

for anyone learning this song, this has greatly helped me on both my guitars. tune the B on the low E string a little flat. it just sounds much better! :)

YES! You finally made a cover of Shelter :'D And it's the full song! You made my day Eddie :')

That double string tapping is pretty cool lmao

What a great Christmas Present for us all, thank you, Eddie.

I lost someone along the way ,and this song makes me feel the motions.Of everything we went through as people and how things are said and done .I play because it's creating it makes me feel so good inside.

Awesome! I'll defenetly learn this song.

U just made me cry of memory of the people that I care about that past away... Thank you...

WOW! I wish I could play guitar, this is so perfectly performed! Awesome job man!

I was feeling depressed and your music just changed my mood ... I can’t thank you enough

Just for doing this song, you got my patreon subscription. Super good work!

Anyone else sing the song in their head?

IS IT JUST ME OR JUST THIS MUSIC GIVES ME A GOOD VIBES THAT I IMAGINE THAT IM DANCING IN MY MIND AND WHEN IM TIRED AND NEEDED TO GET SOME SLEEP I GO TO BED AND LISTEN TO THIS COVER OF SHELTER AND WEAR HEADPHONES WHEN SLEEPING?💕

hearing this and knowing the story makes my eyes sweaty

This makes me want to start playing. 10/10 man.

Me every ~6months: "oh no I'm crying to Porter Robinson again"

the animation for shelter blew me away, hats off to a1 pictures and crunchyroll. it was and still is so moving a1 pictures have come a long way in their animation

Eddie, your talent is unquestionable. :) I read a comment below from a guy who wrote that would like to see more percussion in your arrangements. What do you think? Clauss :)

Love the harmonics bit at the end, that was a nice surprise!

I clicked on this so fast! XD SUCH A GOOD COVER!! :D

Imagine you're listening to this in a bar in a rainy day 💖💕 nostalgic feels 👌💓

there are bowed strings in the background at some places -- there was also a reversed cymbal before the last chorus

This song makes me feel so good...and your version does exactly that: it makes me feel so good inside.

Love this song, this was amazing

I watched this video during quarantine and i saw my old guitar that i bought when i was in my High school, at first i dont want to play guitar because i know how then i was scrolling RU-vid when i saw this video then i got the urge to play and learn guitar so during the first week of quarantine i practice my self to play and learn guitar after a while i got the hang of it. And now i can play finger style om guitar's just like you, I know i'm late to say this but i want to thank you for opening my eyes and giving me the urge/hope to play guitar again. If it wasn't for this video i wouldn't play my guitar ❤

Oh look *youtube algorithm* brought me here again. *cries in the corner*

I love this song, and this cover is so soothing. I also love watching the way the strings vibrate. There's something mesmerizing about it.

the anime music video killed me, thanks for killing me a second time. Also, love the artificial harmonics, I've been practicing those

2019.. its been years since this came out yet i still cry

"What were the old ones like?" "You would loved them Maria, cities of shining glass and twinkling stars " "That sounds beautiful" "They even knew the gods of the skies, and could send shooting stars across the sky by their command" "They must have been wonderful" Story: *IMPACT 350*

Finally a version where I can't cry because of the melody and the video

0:41 strings are dancing to his wonderful playing lol :D

By far my most favourite of your work

Great job Eddie! This is a really cool cover :)

This past 2 years of watching your vids has been amazing, i learnt allot by watching you vids so thx

So good I'm getting goosebumps

owww the feels just came rushing back. Reminds me how I almost did not cry to the video

"It's a long way forward so trust in me. I'll give them shelter like you've done for me. And I know I'm not alone, you'll be watching over us until you're gone"

yes! i can finally listen to this again! it was taken down because of copyright before. i'm planning to learn guitar now after listening to your covers and this is one of the songs i'm planning to learn. thanks for inspiring me to start playing guitar!

Shelter?!?!?? Me: it has be years since I heard this song.. *CRIES IN NOSTALGIA AND REMEMBERING THE VIDEO.*

This is honestly amazing. It's so relaxing and makes me feel better whenever I listen to it. Thank you for this incredible cover.

Is this open tuning? This just made me want to pickup my guitar again. Great video!

Jeez ... I just can't stop listening to this. You've got some serious fucking talent dude. Keep up the great work.

Posted 2 years ago but bump this beauty.

The angelic harmonics at the end brought light into my dark broken soul

Sounds like someone cutting onions again.

Totally in love with this rendition. Love the shots that show the way the strings vibrate 😍

Omg, I'm subscribing. This is amazing!

I don't know how many versions of this song I've heard, but this one is by far my favorite.

THE VIDEO ITS BACK!!! Thanks Eddie

Well damm This video launched my music taste from anime music and 80s stuff And 2 days ago I went to see porter Robinson live and I now have a completely different outlook on life It's amazing how small things completely change your life

Tell me I'm not the only one who sang along......Srsly

The movement of the strings really look beautiful❤❤😍 And this fingerstyle sound sooo damn good😍

One million views - brilliant!

The view from the case up the fretboard is really cool to look at with the relation between the string's frequency and the camera's FPS.

This is so beautiful, I honestly cried listening to this. I love this so much! ❤

This is honestly the best cover I've heard of Shelter ever (even over the ones that use vocals) I just want to keep listening on repeat 😂😂 great job

Hello, I'd like to tell you that this is my favourite arrangement of the instrumental to this song. I'd also like to ask you: Would you allow me to use this arrangement as an instrumental to my singing cover of Shelter? I wanted to record the cover in my native (Polish) with the lyrics I translated myself for at least half a year now but I didn't have the courage to ask you the aforementioned question. I would, of course, credit you and the former creators of the song. Have a good day~ ^^

It's beautiful!

*this my depression song luv it*

I've always been amazed by your skill ever since I started playing guitar. 3 years later I still am, and hearing this played flawlessly was an emotional experience for me. Keep up the good work, and I hope to see much more later.

Hello! Your cover is amazing! It's so peaceful that I listen to it when I work! I know next to nothing about guitars, so what does fingerstyle mean? Is that how to refer to when you don't use a pick?

Those harmonics at the end of the song were fucking gorgeous, dude. Masterful

i wish this this anime is a series or movie =~= Doesnt matter how long ill wait it!!

Jeez, man. It's been a while since I've heard this song. First heard it and I cried like a baby. Nostalgia!

i already cried on the frist

having the video as the bgm while reading the comment section really sets the mood

If you've got the word "van" in your name, you're gonna be talented. No questions.

man i really love this beautiful song, when i'm a guitarist i want to be like you Eddie van der Meer.

i'm crying because this is my ex's fav song and the memories of us will coming back

Love the harmonics at the end~

music literary talks. me:i get you men 😊 2019

I'm absolutely in love with this cover. I can't even put into words how beautiful this is.

I'm not crying , you are 😭

This is one of my favourite songs and this is probably the best way it could have been covered.

1:03 The strings turned into noodles from that much crying

Wow, can't express my feeling just wow.

Your pinky is literally as long as my middle finger
