this is my versos of while my guitar gently weeps an all instrumental version I hope you enjoy it and please subscribe to my channel give this video a big thumbs up and I will see you on the next one
I’m 74 years old and have been watching Taj for 2 years, I am so sad that I will miss the best years of this magnificent guitarists life. He gives me so much pleasure to listen to the greatest ever, especially when I’ve been lucky to have seen all that we all thought the best. Go get em Taj prove me right, I know you can.
Well I'm going to be 60 and I can tell you right now I'm hanging around long enough to see this boy in action. I'm going to make it a point to do so LOL because he's too good to freaking miss. I just can't believe what I see with this child who plays better than most seasoned guitarists he is comfortable with his guitar as someone else had put it he is at one with it and that is the truth. His expressions only show that it's coming from deep from within his soul. Genuine. He never looks at the guitar. He just knows, it it's natural to him. He will be the next Jimi Hendrix, he will be the next slash, he will Be. I will continue watching this boy until I can no longer. The Joy listening to him play the songs that I actually grew up to and adored. He's doing it even better it's amazing to see this kid put out how my guitar gently weeps. That's so hard, I'm just amazed. I've made a playlist and will be sharing it shortly of nothing but Taj. I want him to be seen in the United States as much as possible. This kid's going to be something he sings he writes he plays his guitar and he's alil over 11 years of age. Bless him, keep him safe and away from all that rock and roll can give but the negative give. I know his daddy is watching him and keeping him grounded and hopefully this will be enough. You go taj, you got the United States behind you honey. Australia is not big enough for you 💯🥰
The coolest thing about Taj’s videos is that someday when he is revered as a rock God worldwide,we will all be able to look back at these videos and know that we were there when this young man’s journey began towards his ultimate destiny👉🎸🎤👏
Ditto on the 68. I've seen most of the 'gods', I've seen bedroom jammers as good as most well known players, but I've never struck any body as young that can emote through the instrument as Taj does. Never mind his dexterity.......I hope that he finds some peer players that can push him as hard as he will push them in the future.
@@triffidgrower i also am 68....first Jimmy...then Stevie ray... now this kid... the future of music is looking good with this kid leading the way... rock on Taj
Well I have not walked the earth as long as you old farts but I have been around for 63 years and in my opinion the kid is good but also at the age where most kids like one thing one minute and something else the next and I just hope he stays with the guitar as he certainly has the fingers for it.
Hi Taj I'm 13 years old and I've been practicing guitar seriously for around three years, and I can play most popular rock songs now but the feelings you have in your fingers are second to none. I wish you an amazing glorious music career. I aspire to be you.
201 thumbs down? Haters. This kid is absolutely amazing and has a ton of talent. Taj could jump on stage right now and play lead guitar for probably just about any band out there. Kid is absolutely genius on the guitar and I look forward to watching him for many years to come God willing. You keep it up Taj, stay true to yourself and stay away from drugs and alcohol buddy cause they will only take away all the things you love and that mean anything to you, they absolutely bring bring anything good into your life I promise. Rock on Taj, the world will be watching 🤘
Used to hang out with a killer guitar player in the 60s and 70s. Rolling stone asked him how do you know if you’re good. He said if old black men hold their heads and moan.you are good. Without thinking my head was in my hands and I was groaning. I’m not black but I am 76 so maybe it still works. Omg Taj. Thank you
I agree with you on this except the god part. This EXTREMELY talented boy put the time, work, effort, passion, & pure love of the music & guitar into being this good, this quickly. He deserves ALL the credit for that.I do love watching him play.
@@elvirasparks6609 Mam...I just ment that he's our gift from God. He's a very special gift to us...from our Creator... I only hope that he stays away from the sex,booze, and drugs. His parents are great.. and he's very grounded. He makes most of today's 20 year olds... look and talk like 5 year olds. Thank God... for blessing us with Taj.
sorry, I personally know many musicians who are exceptionally talented, AND I don't know ONE who hasn't spent YEARS perfecting their craft.... personally I KNOW it took me half his lifetime just to put calluses on my fingertips....and if you don't know what that means you have no place to criticize others comments, what I'm trying to say is Taj IS extremely talented, hard work and dedication, ABSOLUTELY!! but he has MORE then that, and you are a fool if you can't hear it!!!$$ just sayin.....
I greatly admire Taj , I swear my jaw drops every time I listen to him play. I get goose bumps for pete's sake! Amazing doesn't begin to describe his talent. I have to say I also greatly admire the support, guidance, and time is father (and family) do to keep him grounded, humble and kind. Kudos to the whole family!!!
This song was one of my father in laws favorite little brother.. he was a lefty like Hendrix, love to play all the time. Your skills are second to none my man. Keep pickin and I’ll always be listenin.. love you kid. Soul like I’ve never seen
Been following this kid for a few years now...the most truly gifted player I've ever witnessed. And I'm 66yrs old...Stay true yourself and your music young man. Never take it for granted...and never sell out to the highest bidder❤️
On what possible basis can people watch this child improvise on this beautiful and famously loved song, to make it his own interpretation, and give this jaw dropping accomplishment a thumbs down?
Taj, when you play I'm captured by what you reveal(I call it "soul streaming").To me all that passion is released from your soul and positive vibes flow, streaming from your fingertips. Taj you will touch many souls in this life!
Love the facial expressions that Taj Farrant is showing because it means he's really getting into playing the song, I'd rather have Taj Farrant doing that than have him looking like a faceless robot without no expression, keep up the amazing work Taj as While my Guitar Gently Weeps is not the easiest song to master and you young man have MASTERED IT 👍🙏👏🎸
Yes you can tell he gets into his guitar playing I wish my father was still alive he would love to see this boy play he was in a band and he encouraged all young people to play
@@firecrakka Amen! I believe George Carlin said it best: "It's not enough to know what notes to play, but you have to know *WHY* they *NEED* to be played."
The first time I listened to this, I had my eyes closed and just felt it. The emotional expression is incredible. Watching and listening the next several times is surreal. Such a gifted old soul in this young child!
Each time I hear him play it brings tears to my eyes, as I’m watching greatness unfold right in from of me. Taj is one with the music, pouring from his soul. It is beautiful to see and unbelievable to hear.
Love that this young man is so skilled with the guitar that he is free to let his personality shine too. And in interviews he seems like a great kid. Stay positive, Taj
Hendrix Harrison & Stevie Ray would have all loved this kid 😎 I hope that he keeps going for many many years 😁 he just keeps getting better and better 😎
I'm so happy you did this song! I've been waiting for you to do this one! A year ago and I'm still playing it all the time! One of my favorites. Rock on🎶🤘stay you!
I just commented....he's like an old soul. (SRV🤔) But seriously....this kid is his own man!! He knows who he is, and I love how hes introducing himself to the world, and I'm grateful that a friend posted him on Facebook today, because that's where I found him!!! #fanforever
Knowing that blues and classic rock is in such beyond-good 10 year-old hands gives me an immense amount of hope in the midst of these hope-destroying times. Stay safe and stay alive, young maestro!!!
OMG... Taj... This is AMAZING!! This song has been a favorite of mine forever and I've heard many legendary guitarists perform it. Eric Clapton was always a favorite but I've gotta tell you I now have a new favorite version of this song! Truly incredible and awe inspiring young man. Thanks so very much for sharing it with us.
I am so glad I witnessed this legend coming into his own. Cannot wait until he gets the confidence to start belting out words. He has so much to say and I will be there every song of the way. Taj I'm a fan for LIFE! You let the music flow.
Insane! Absolutely insane! And Taj, play the way you want to and don't ever listen to anyone telling you how or why it should be done another way. Be yourself always. I've been playing for years and can clearly see Taj has more talent in his little finger than I have overall. Gives me the shit's really. Rock on Taj!!! 😉
Hi from America.. in my 70s have seen many live bands over the years.. as we all can see you are one of the greats in your music.. many years ahead we will be enjoying your music.. keep it up.. God bless..from this American grsndma
You’ve got the talent and a whole lot of innocents. Stay humble. Listen to your family. Music biz, has a lot of evil people with Bad influences. Stay true to yourself and craft as you grow. Looking forward to your success.
He is amazing, I wish he could slow down time but continue his trip and the incredible talent he has been given, my brother would have really liked this guy
Bradha Taj. Do you have any idea how blessed and fortunate you are to have found your passion and its outlet to fully express it to the world?… and the value you’re creating to the world for us to enjoy? This is a magical gift at any age. It’s so beautiful to see that you have found your miracle of creative expression so early in your life’s journey. I’d say embrace it and be grateful, but I believe you have. Thank you Taj for sharing your passion and your authentic self… keeppin’ it real ! You are an inspiration and an example of how imagination, love and vision can manifest anything …any reality …any world someone desires to experience. Shaka Bradha 🌈🤙
Taj Farrant ✝️, has a GOD GIVEN TALENT 🙌 🙏 👌 👏 😍 Seen him live in Saint Augustine, Florida USA 🇺🇸 and he, his family and band mates' are BRILLIANT 👏 ❤❤❤❤💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥
I an just Amazed at what i am hearing here, A total Gifted Person, , Eric Clapton could not play this when he was 11 Years Old, rock on Buddy, Cousin Figel
I was so excited when this came up. Prince took this song to a whole other level in that live performance. And I knew Taj could hold his own with Prince and any song he has done is right there with him.
I'm completely blown away. I'm one of his biggest fan I've never seen or heard a kid his age play like that. It's a gift and it's rare. It takes most years to be this good. He is absolutely amazing in a way that is so much more. You keep rocking Taj I watch you every night and never get tired of you. A No# 1 entertainer also
I wish I was young again to see you grow up and watch you play, I will be 61 tomorrow but I watch you everyday. Thank You for sharing your gift with us all, Rock On Taj!!!!!!!
I was laying in bed half asleep but left my phone on to RU-vid and this video came on. I was thinking to myself that this was an amazing rendition. Then I saw who was playing it. Impressive
It says 209 people gave a thumbs down to this video, I am in fucking awe that anyone could not have given it a thumbs up... This child is the next 'ONE' ! HE IS A MASTERPIECE 😎
Taj your amazing. Stevie Ray is very proud. When I first saw you play, it inspired me to buy a guitar and an amp. Gave it to my grandson and wished him LUCK. You sir are truly blessed.
I totally see where your goin but I would like to point out that stevie ray played a totally different style of guitar and eric clapton actually wrote this song and played lead on the record version.
And that little dude is how you make not only your guitar but your captive audience weep!! I literally had tears running down my face. George would be proud as hell at what you just did there and I'm so glad I got to listen to it. Thank you little buddy, shred on and always be you!
Not only are you technically sound, but you can bend a note more flawlessly than most players three times your age. Would still love to see you do Tender Surrender by Steve Vai. I personally think it's a much better song technically, than "For The Love Of God". And honestly dude, you could play a blues "original" daily and I'd be a happy camper. 🤘🤘🤘
Spectacular...Taj’s playing has the guitar gift of the century and he’s powerful, beautiful and extraordinary in conveying the message. This young ‘old sole’ has unbelievable talent.
Been following you for a couple of yrs now. You always truly blow my old mind. I'm 63 and have been lucky enough to get too hear some of the greatest. Lil Dude I put you right up there with them. I'm glad I have been allowed to hear you now, you make my old heart soar. Rock on lil man !
i am having a hard time processing what i just seen in this video Taj is very young and already one of the most accomplished guitarist i ever seen and i have a feeling that we aint seen nothing yet i will be watching
