in the same sense that Tommy Emmanuel is incredible. Nathaniel is one of most amazing self accompanying performers i’ve ever witnessed. With that being said, musicianship isn’t about facility, it’s a modern thing that everyone watches music, but the platform of music is one of listening. If you take away the amazement at his dexterity or facility the music itself isn’t that incredible. Also when I see him or Tommy play in a band it’s pretty vanilla. Most people would still rather listen to an old legend who can barely walk than one of these guys on electric. That’s because they don’t write. They cover and arrange other peoples music. But once you get past facility and being amazed by someone’s physical skills, what matters is the music. And he’s never created something or a style that players use or copy. I would say a Guthrie Govan, Greg Koch or Tim Henson are much better. Nathaniel is amazing, but when you start talking in superlatives, it needs to be mentioned…Clapton and EVH are gods not because of their ability but because every single guitarist in the world uses their facility that they invented. Most don’t even realize that’s where their licks are from. And beyond that Freddi King is pretty much what all of us who are playing rock n roll are playing. Superlatives are for people who influence and change the game, that’s just my opinion. Another way of looking at it is. Professional musicians don’t judge other musicians on their dexterity because they can ALL play like that. They just would rather play with other people than arrange 9 instruments onto one guitar…
Oh wow. Great guitar and amazing guitarist. His technique spans quite a few generations of style and delivery. I've never heard him before but he sure got my attention.
Just insanely great. Clearly, Nathaniel is wildly talented - but it also takes a lot of work and thought to work out an arrangement like that, no matter how talented you are. And that bit where he snapped his fingers with his right hand while his left worked the fingerboard? Wow.
If anyone ever needed a dictionary meaning of "next level" they just need watch this. There are so many technically brilliant guitarists on UA-cam these days but Nathaniel has just demonstrated to me what it is all about....................Actual bloody music!
I stumbled across this guy about 2 HOUR'S ago!! OMG he has got to be one of the most amazing musicians on the planet!! Along side Matteo Mancuso!!. It's now midnight I have to sleep.
Feel the same way brother,came across this fella only the other day has totally blown my mind & instead of making one feel inadequate he has the opposite effect really inspiring making me want to become a better guitarist.. Probably the best guitarist I've ever heard
I have just discovered Nathaniel. I have been playing guitar since 13, and now 70, I never get bored watching such talent, so effortless and did not miss a beat. Just subscribed and looking forward to searching your history. Dave
UA-cam should finally fix those bugs - there is 4,5 thousands instead of 4,5 billions likes and 117 thousand of views instead of 117 billion. Come on, this is the best performance I've ever seen!!!! Magnificent!!!!
Pffffft obviously didn’t watch the other UA-camrs who have to pull a face like the guitar strings are wired to the mains when you play tutorial. So much fun to watch!
It's funny because when you hear the original version you think it's just straight ahead and not too complex but this version definitely amps up the complexity level.
Wow! Nathan this is my favorite video of yours. That bass line and rhythm shuffle are outstanding. Please post some tabs on this. I’d love to knock myself out on it with your pro assist. What an exceptional piece. If you had a patreon page with this on there I would sign up pronto. Just fantastic!
It might be about 50 times i watch this video and listen to that wonderfull playing because of those f#ck!ng insomnias here in France. I need this guitar absolutely, assorted of the fingers, brain, neurones and hears of the incredible Nathaniel who pretnd he is britsih. So one day, when in Europe, please do come over the channel and give a concert in France, especially here in Nantes !

Nathaniel must be one of the world's best. He deserves wider recognition.
I totally agree. He has to be one of the greatest players.

He's really good... Still gotta go with Tuck Andress as one of the greatest.
Out of sight! I have no compliment worthy of that kind of playing. Absolutely unreal… well done!!
Wow, thank you!
Superbly put.
Fully agree. Outstanding!
Nathaniel is just amazing! Please… somebody put a band around him and give him a record deal!
This guy among the worlds best guitarist. He needs to be celebrated and honored!
Hes not a brain dead influencer or has breasts so hes sht out of luck on youtube
Good lord.!!!! It doesn't even look like he's trying hard.!!! Just incredible !!!
Thanks for watching!!
That tempo is insanely good for all that complexity
Huh. There must be something wrong with my guitar.
My guitar won't do that either. Think it needs an upgrade.
Mine kinda does it but it won't do it in front if someone else
Same as mine, lose nut behind the strings
Yeah, but i LOVE seeing him do it. I mean just wow.
It’s you
Oh wow. Great guitar and amazing guitarist. His technique spans quite a few generations of style and delivery. I've never heard him before but he sure got my attention.
Dude plays the whole band (including the singer!) while looking like he was playing Wonderwall.
How this doesn't have a gazillion views is beyond me.
Why this doesn't have millions of views is beyond me.
Almost there! lol not really but thank you!
Just insanely great. Clearly, Nathaniel is wildly talented - but it also takes a lot of work and thought to work out an arrangement like that, no matter how talented you are. And that bit where he snapped his fingers with his right hand while his left worked the fingerboard? Wow.
Thank you for watching!! More on the way!
That fingerboard bit?...😮
If anyone ever needed a dictionary meaning of "next level" they just need watch this. There are so many technically brilliant guitarists on UA-cam these days but Nathaniel has just demonstrated to me what it is all about....................Actual bloody music!
Amen!
It is just unfair that one person is so talented.
That’s is CRAZY good. We play that in our live set, and never with that nuance and articulation.
Bravo!
Wow, thanks!
The finger snapping while finger tapping the melody was a nice touch.
My jaw dropped after the first few notes and stayed dropped all the way through 2:15!
Anyone who has never tried to play the guitar has no idea how incredibly talented this guy is!
If I had a tenth of his talent then I would consider myself a pretty good guitarist. The blokes an absolute legend.
Thanks for watching!!
If I had 1/10th of his talent, I would be considered exceptionally good. This guy is off the chain!!
If I had a tenth of 1 % of his talent then I would considder myself a happy guitarplayer..for my ears only😁
Best use of a middle pickup I’ve ever heard
This guy is a genius!!!
Thanks for watching!!
I stumbled across this guy about 2 HOUR'S ago!! OMG he has got to be one of the most amazing musicians on the planet!! Along side Matteo Mancuso!!. It's now midnight I have to sleep.
Sweet baby Jesus! That was incredible!
I thought I'd seen and heard it all. Damn it, this guy's talent is out of this world!
Feel the same way brother,came across this fella only the other day has totally blown my mind & instead of making one feel inadequate he has the opposite effect really inspiring making me want to become a better guitarist..
Probably the best guitarist I've ever heard
Outstanding Nathan, you also have the enviable skill of not looking like you are trying!
Thanks for watching!!
No words to describe your playing Nathaniel. They must love you around the camp fire.... and anywhere else
He's just unreal. In the very best way. And what a sound!
He's out of this world insane. Thanks for the cover
Effortless . The best cover ive ever heard of that song . Absolutely brilliant !

He’s a LEGEND!! He does this easier than I can eat a sandwich!!
I have just discovered Nathaniel. I have been playing guitar since 13, and now 70, I never get bored watching such talent, so effortless and did not miss a beat. Just subscribed and looking forward to searching your history. Dave

How does this not have more views than it does this should have millions yet only has 26k so sad
We Agree lol!
Thanks for watching!!

UA-cam should finally fix those bugs - there is 4,5 thousands instead of 4,5 billions likes and 117 thousand of views instead of 117 billion. Come on, this is the best performance I've ever seen!!!! Magnificent!!!!
Wow! What a GREAT arrangement! Awesome playing, and I love the finger snapping while fretting notes with the left hand. Clever!
Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching!!
He makes a very complicated task looks very easy! You're the best Nathaniel!
This guy makes it look effortless. What a player!
That is a crazy little thing called talent! You’re an amazing player.
Far out, that's brilliant ❤❤❤😊
My band plays this tune! What a great arrangement! Thanks for sharing!

Pffffft obviously didn’t watch the other UA-camrs who have to pull a face like the guitar strings are wired to the mains when you play tutorial.
So much fun to watch!
Too much fun! Wonderful playing!

I come back and watch this sometimes and am always blown away. What a talent.
Nathaniel's playing is always so awesome!
Absolutely great playing and arrangement! It's fascinating to see all the parts of this complex tune played on one guitar. Thanks 👍😎
It's funny because when you hear the original version you think it's just straight ahead and not too complex but this version definitely amps up the complexity level.
😮 amazing
Really captured the essence of the song. Wow!
Thank you!!
