Songs Intermediate Players Should be able to Play 

Whoa.

You remind me alot of Davie504

Playing with bugs is more fun than playing sting's solo catalog, and isn't pretentious at all.

These look easy but they are deceptively challenging.

Rude

I've been a begginer for about 10 years now

😂😂😂same here

​@@philippebaillargeon5204 That hits kinda diffrent 😭🤧

Do I have to pull my socks up to my knees to play these riffs?

You could probably play it, just not as clean

Plays Arpeggios From Hell

*_plays playing god_*

That’s actually a really easy song.

​@@PowerfulBaconlol.Then record yourself playing it

I can’t even play that song on guitar hero😂

Idk if I just have a weird sense of what hard or not but I never had any difficulty learning or playing that song

He even played an easier version

He also played Thunderstruck the wrong way

man I tried playing snow its quite easy

to being a good guitarist and hardly makes a living. Typical narcissist wants everyone to think he’s always been great. And with all honesty his playing is nothing special whatsoever. He can hit the right notes, but plays them shitty and sloppy and without any soul

I got a fair few floyd songs down. Im not the best at solos hard time with that one

Yeah, it's hardest one here

Indeed! Dude has so much inflection and emotion! Really makes every song and solo sing! Love it! 😁👌🏻 one of my favorite pink floyd songs! Another favorite is a song called marooned on the division bell album! No lyrics at all, just all sweet passionate, emotional, and beautiful guitar through the whole thing! Piano too! Such a masterpiece! 😁👍🏻

I was gonna say. Notes are easy. The feeling and touch are a next level.

Was about to say playing the notes in that solo aren’t hard but hit each one exactly right is hard af Gilmores bends are ridiculous

Yeah, that's pushin it Comfortably numb as well, damn if that ain't a hard solo Thunderstruck riff is just tipping toes in shredding territory, though it's not as difficult as one might think Shape of you is fair game, just a few fancy chords with fingerstyle

​@@yobrethrenyeah exactly. The hardest part about the Comfortably Numb solo is nailing the tone and the emotion of Gilmours playing. He has a very unique style.

i think he is saying that mechanically those songs are intermediate. there are classic pieces that are 8000x harder than any rock song even with fast tapping, bending and arpeggios. there is also bossa nova songs with 70 insane chords in just one songs with different rhythms for the right hand.

Its easy

@@catsexual3412 That sounds hilariously exhausting.

I mean if you put enough practice to it you can play thunderstruck as an intermediate player. Hell I still call myself a beginner but I can sorta play it

​@@Itzz_Ace Every beginner is able to learn Thunderstruck. Takes some time in the beginning, but it's really not too hard. An Intermediate player should be able to play thunderstruck, without any problems.

its literally just pull offs i learned it in a month of learning guitar

@@who3033 In the acc recorded song you can hear the individual notes being picked individually so it's not just pull-offs

@@Itzz_Ace it’s quite obvious that he’s pulling off the strings dude. What makes you think he’s picking every note?

He played Thunderstruck wrong as well. Every note is picked.

​@@christianlarson4201 he got the notes right at least, for SomH he got like nothing right

​@@UGCP744brandon likes to act like he's above everyone despite making constant mistakes

He didn’t. He said if you’re intermediate you should be able to play the songs. He didn’t say that if you could play them then you’re intermediate.

@@lllULTIMATEMASTERlll dont crush his dreams man :(

@@lllULTIMATEMASTERlll damn bro you’re mad dumb to not realize what he’s saying.

@@lllULTIMATEMASTERlll let bro have his moment

@@lllULTIMATEMASTERlll 🤓🤓🤓

Yeah, pulling off the open B note instead of alternate picking it is tecnically cheating. It is a good song/exercise for someone whos struggling with hand sync when alt picking

Seeing as angus young plays it with hammer ons and pull offs live i wouldnt call it wrong, just not how he does it in the studio version

@@luznis139 still for a guy to offer guitar courses and says you should be able to play these songs it’s a bit funny to play it the easy way

​@@luznis139I thought he played it live with tapping so he could smoke while he's playing, but smoking was prohibited in the studio

@@luznis139 I’ve seen AC/DC live plenty of times, and watched pretty much every live recording of Thunderstruck, and never once seen (or heard) him tap it! The only version where you can see him tapping is the music video, but even then, you can clearly hear that the recording is all picked

still easy as fuck

Its muting time

cant stop is not that hard just mute with one finger behind the notes like youre playing a barre chord and use the other fingers for melody - easy asf that way

Mute with index only and play all low notes with it too, and then use your middle and pinky for the high notes, the song becomes way easier, Frusciante’s way just provides extra difficulty with no real reward

Brandemonium

really not the hardest riff. a lot of metal would put it to shame

@@swagmoneybuge yes the riff itself is easy but good once you learn it, but playing it perfectly, without mistake, for over 3 minutes long in the song, is what makes it difficult

​@@man_in_black7665 yea that's why it's put in intermediate and not beginner

this guys pretty good at guitar, doubt he would have a problem

Lil late on this but recently got into guitar again but i can do snow fine but only slow not fast and its been like 2 weeks lol 😅 and i usually learn fast

I am very pro grass

Love grass

69 Likes? NOICE!! 🦗☘️🌱⛳

Grass is my fav 🌱

Yeah I like emo and indie more

fax

No. It's crap. All the RHCP songs are 🐩💩

thats the joke

Fax it requires great pickslanting technique and a lot of stamina to play it

Same with Comfortably Numb. I guess they're 'easy' to learn the notes but to do it effectively with good technique is advanced as.

Whats wrong with that?

💀💀💀

The higher the socks the downer the foo

Where else are you gonna store all your picks

LOL!

I assume JuiceWRLD sampled it

No shit he sampled it lmao

Lmao really

@@circumcizednun1814 Paul Davids did a whole video on it.

"that guy" is Dominic Miller and he can play it like the original. He just plays a different inversion of one of the chords to make it slightly more comfortable to play. Its not harder or easier, just less of a stretch for a single chord

bro thats not even true

Also this guy played it wrong

Juice world sampled it from them If you're not joking

​@@Rainetarrant67no sting clearly copied juice world

bro played shape of my heart, the message and lucid dreams at the same time and thought we wouldn't notice

@@user-cj4fu8qq9b facts

@@straight-outta-jutta facts, cant believe some of these idiots, gosh.

He played the 5th chord wrong

And he still got it wrong. The C# goes up half a step to a D the second time.

Imo, the full solo is the most difficult compared to the others, Thunderstruck is easy, Snow not bad, but Gilmour, matching his expressive playing is challenging.

​@@sirTANKhunterindeed! Dude has so much inflection and emotion! Really makes every song and solo sing! Love it! 😁👌🏻

to being a good guitarist and hardly makes a living. Typical narcissist wants everyone to think he’s always been great. And with all honesty his playing is nothing special whatsoever. He can hit the right notes, but plays them shitty and sloppy and without any soul

You're joking right?

Aw bless your fragile little ego

I mean like roger has nothing to do with the solo

@@yohaielia7 frfr

@@yohaielia7 i think they said that because the other songs are labeled with the band rather than just the guitarist

Ur supposed to pick it

@@serenedarkness6257 thats how he plays it in the recording but live he does pull offs/ hammer ons

@@gillzemach5721 I think you're confusing "live" with the official music video where he plays it one handed. He plays it correctly by picking when actually playing live.

@@marw9541 you are absolutely right, just had one guy tell me that he played it that way live and never checked it, I now see that I shouldve checked it

How about no thunderstruck at all

bro don't take a tiktok seriously

True words

hes saying u should be able to play them. not that u know how to play them.

@@idk9637 ohhhh..... Okay i see. I get it.

What kind of songs do you play? I kinda thought every guitar player had at least tried to play snow or thunderstruck lol

It's fun to practice with tho, i always play it before the actual... Play??? English is not my best friend, sorry.

Real

mfs like this are what's wrong with the music industry. when intermediate "musicians" get a platform and tell others they're not good enough 🤣 yet they can't even get a gig irl

​@@md167 this guy's whole persona is "if you can't do this you're shit" I mean there are other guitarists who sell courses too like Scott but he's way ahead of this guy in terms of both comedy and skills

Great question cause Gilmour stuff is very easy to get good enough but very hard to get to sound like the record.

How to tell everyone that you are too young without saying anything about your age:

​@@69hunter55 honestly im the same though, that song was huuuuge and it played so often. such a vibe

If you want to play it like on the record, it is not simple. because he uses a pick instead of hammer on/pull offs

Then you don’t love what you are playing lol

Me too!!!

It's actually a pretty difficult song if you want to play it cleanly. I would definitely put it in the advanced category just for the technique and stamina it requires.

@@Elemy69 yeah I can play it pretty decently for about a minute and then my hand dies the quality drops and I give up and play something else

Agree bro. Been playing for 16 years and am currently working on snow. It’s taken me weeks to get it up to .75x speed. My biggest struggle was forcing myself to alternate pick it rather than economy pick it

My beginner ass trying things out of its league and failing miserably: :D

Agree. Snow is the one I would place like half a tier up

How clean can they play snow tho in reality

@@marcusstrymon693 you just need some more practice

Why not

None of these songs are particularly difficult. I’d say Californiacation might be the hardest cause of chord shapes.

Snow*

@@Skvm californication is easy

Same as Stairway and Bo-rap. They're iconic solos that aren't too difficult.

True lol as a self taught comfortably numb and shape of my heart were literally the first two songs I tried to learn 😂. Btw I'm trash if you are wondering

What do you play? How much are you earning? I'm thinking of becoming a pro, but mom is against it and says that I end up in a noname bar playing same popsongs and making no money

You need the experience of doing it for awhile, and then you will realise if it is for you or not. Best of luck☘️❤️☘️

I stopped playing professionally I prefer working at other things but I do miss it sometimes. Not ever gig you do is good.

Exactly lol the challenge is the endurance with that one

I may be late but for you I can only say one thing: Tony Iommy Style😎😎😎

Real

I think he was just joking

Boomer bends haha nice
