#PhilCollins #intheairtonight #SoloAcousticGuitar
That's just crazy interpretation. I'm a drummer, I had my doubts when I received a notification that Kent had selected this. Phil's music is most impactful with strong percussion - after all, he is an accomplished drummer himself. Mind blowing how Kent just gets it to work on an acoustic guitar. So impressive!
I just came across Kent's YT site and love all his covers But.. being a lifelong drummer, this one is beyond understanding. His ending is exactly how Phil sings it live.. Not on the recorded release. It's really impressive.
Yeah im a drummer as well I was like No Way 😂.
Once upon a time, long long ago, in a land far far away, some of us who are musicians THOUGHT we had talent ... then this. I've been playing JUST the drum part to this song since it came out in the 80s. Three DECADES later you decide to play the lead, the harmony and the bass parts AT THE SAME TIME, on ONE instrument AND throw in the drum part ... making it ALL sound better than anything I could ever dream of playing. Jealous? Me? You're damn right I'm jealous. Kent, you're amazing. Please don't EVER stop creating. You are a gift to humanity.
Great comment

Masterful arrangement
lol i remember hahah. so powerful .
I've been waiting for this moment, for all my life.
Lol 🤩👍
😂
Lol
Without a doubt ill give you
Oh lord ………
He has truly becomed one of the best guitarists in the world.
Such perfection. Incredible Mr. Nishimura.
Deep respect
I agree
Alexandr Misko
But this guy is definitely top 5
It looks like his guitar is tuned to the key of A with melodic drone notes. I don't know why he wouldn't just tune strings without using capo on 2nd fret. Either way, Bravo!
Check out Mr. Tommy Emmanuel ua-cam.com/video/ENJuNCkPfx0/v-deo.html
@@zukipower9960 Fingerstylists, Bluegrass players exploits Capo, Varied Tunings, Reverbs for easy chord porgressions, continuity, transitions & playability. Barre chords are inevitabale when you're constantly in Standard Tuning & will greatly affect the smooth sound, continuity & playability of a Fingerstyle/Bluegrass player & has caused a lot of nightmare for these genres that's why these options are a saving grace. Mr. Emmanuel honed his expertise in Standard Tuning first, same as a Classical Player, then the rest of these tweaks & options followed suit. That's why he's the best.
@@fernandosanrafael5897 Sure, there are several ways to tune a guitar and throw on a capo. Very versatile and melodic instrument, that's why I love it so much. It's amazingly appeasing to the ears and if you can also play it, it's amazingly appeasing to the soul.
This is the closest thing I've ever heard to a guitar actually speaking. You can almost hear Phil's word and intonation. Perfectly done! :-)
I can hear Phil Collins is humming along this with a smile on his face.
U r hearing voices
"Your hearing could be better", would make more sense, I feel.
@@bigphatty5298 *you're
2:55 - He even but the flaming echo in - this guy is from another planet!
Right? To me that's one of the most impressive parts! It's amazing
We may be witnessing the greatest acoustic guitarist ever ❤
What kind of heartless sod would give this very talented boy a thumbs down(shaking my head). Seriously? Well done Kent.
Those dislikes are from people who trashed their guitars after realizing their incompetence!
Yeah, take it easy on those people. They even quit playing with their thumbs the day they heard this.
Somebody who's about to jump off a ledge...
Send compassionate thoughts……we rise by lifting others. Love to all
That drop for the drums was flawless.
What’s really amazing is that he captures the feel of this song. He’s not using a drum kit he’s not using a lead singer with an incredibly powerful vocal but he is somehow captures the essence of this song. Great job
You certainly mentioned about the most important points on Kent's performances and his original arrangement.
Well said
That what this man us all about. He captures the feel of each song he does! Amazing talent!
being the best fingerstyle guitarist here in UA-cam is an understatement, this kid is the best in the world. Hands down!
I listened to the hundred of guitarists for 40 years. I have to say You are Best! Simply Genius! Every note is just perfect.
The bass lines after the "drum fill" are outstanding!
I couldn't believe when I saw the title. How in the world could any solo guitarist take on this song?! I was really wondering how you could interpret the peak drumming part, and you really nailed it! Well done young man! It was incredibly satisfying to hear your version. Congrats to you!
Song choice, arrangement, and execution. Complex rhythm, multiple parts, getting the details of little things like effects or style choices from the original in while still totally making it your own, and taking us on the journey through the song with masterful attention to dynamics and arc. Leaving us wondering how you’re gonna handle some complicated piece of it, and then blowing us away when you do. You never miss. Stay humble with all that talent, Kent. Cheers from the US.

..usually without multi-tracking, in one take w/o edits or post... and _never_ 'showy' - it's all about the piece, the faithfulness of interpretation and technical precision. One of a kind eh..
Well said!
no need for words. All is said
well said.
silent chords and melodies he plays silently, emphasizes where its needed etc. Unreal guy. Precise yet emotional. A+ 5/5
The outro is out of this world!
I've never even been able to get my head around the drum beat, never mind this. Such talent.
The greatest acoustic guitarist around today. Absolutely outstanding.
An incredible arrangement masterfully performed. Simply inspiring!
@@tasinbaneir4231 What are you on about? I don’t think you realize who you’re responding to. He certainly has experience in that field.
What What in the Butt has 72M views, views are not an indication of quality.
What kind of heartless sod would give this very talented boy a thumbs down(shaking my head). Seriously? Well done Kent.
Holy... This is simply glorious!! I can only dream of having this natural skill!! And a thumbs up from maple is the highest endorsement!!
The Best Fingerstyle ever agree
The magic of Kent's virtuoso is he can transfer the note every word falls in, in the lyrics, with no fillers, i.e., all the words of the lyrics being played in their notes in the melody to his instrument.
And he doesn't do this by single string picking or plucking but is using full chords with his alternate tuning. Now add to that the bass line, the riffs, and the percussion, and we can see his full talent on display.
Just awesome.
Yes, His percussion skills are really good too. He seems to like conga drums too Because I remembered since he was small he likes to hang out with his conga friend. He really adapted the skills required for this. what an amazing kid.
Wow! This is four parts played at the same time! Perc, bass, chords, melody. So many amazing guitarists on YT. This young man is definitely one of them!
It's also easy to forget that this dude is nailing this, flawlessly - one take - no edits - straight up. Legend.
It's one of most impressive facts of his videos imho
And all at the age of 17!!
how do you know its one take?
@@mingimoiaspioon3786 Watch it again. There are no edits. It's all one shot.
@@therealdoug1000 one take doesn't mean one shot LOL
I've been playing guitar for 20 years, and I'm quite competent in both technical playing and music theory. That being said, playing rhythm AND playing lead always blows my mind. Freaks of nature and I'm always in awe
You’ve added another layer to the mood of Phil’s song. Hearing it played like this on an acoustical is life changing.
this is such an insane song choice. Kent's creativity never fails to inspire.
I was so amazed by this performance I almost forgot to smash this little blue thumb !
Haha,,thanks for the reminder. ...did exactly the same
Perfect timing from start to finish. Kent has a ticking metronome for a heart! ❤️ Just awesome talent! Thanks Kent.
夢見た感じ
どこまでも突っ走って行ってほしい
応援しています
Brother, you just made my arrangement of this song look like a fool... I still can't comprehend how amazing you are!
I love both. You all differences make me so happy!
You sir, are brilliant, intentionally or otherwise.
You pay Kent a sincere and self-effacing compliment full of humility, while simultaneously driving views for your own channel.
😁
And I must disagree. Your arrangement is good; this arrangement is just GREAT, so yours suffers in comparison.
I couldn't hope to achieve either anytime in the foreseeable future, as I haven't nearly the dedication to the craft that either of you do.
Which is to say, virtually none, as I am not even a guitarist, but simply a guy who can "play a little guitar".
I spend the first few hour s with our new born and he is raising his eyebrows in awe listening to this.
Great parents!
I'm laughing out loud to myself in disbelief at this, Incredible bud!
I might be able to play the low E string of this arrangement after a couple weeks of practice. I can't comprehend hitting every single note, let alone without muffling it, picking every string at the exact correct time, and then adding freaking percussion on top of it. Crazy talented!
One of the best performances I've ever experienced.
Easily one of the best in the world and definitely my favorite on UA-cam
All of his covers are amazing! No duds!
Wow! All of Kent’s arrangements are incredible but this may take the cake. I can’t imagine the synapse that has to be firing in his head to pull off this beat while playing. Great job!
Cool fact: probably his brain isn't doing any work. All the synapses come from the "spine" ( I'm Brazilian and English isn't my main language, so idk the correct term).
Thanks Kent, you made me rediscover this song.
Top shelf performance
That guitar 🎸needed a smoke after that fine playing
You are simply pure genius. PERIOD! And when I heard the baseline part towards the end, I went to heaven. Wow!
Freaking incredible. Knowing someone with talent like that is out there in the world gives me hope. Great job, young sir.
What a talent, and the hard work behind this performance. Hats off...
Master class is in session.
It is both inspirational and mind-blowing when next-level artists perform. Sit back and take it all in. It is a gift for all of us.
7 month later, still lost for words
ひたひたと迫りくる哀切な夜の調べからエンディングまでの高揚感がたまらなくて素晴らしいっちゃ😊パーカッションにも音色がありリズムをとることだけでなくギターの調べと一体となっていけるという発見をさせてくれる短く感じてしまう4分38秒に大感動😍余韻も半端なく感じさせてしまう終わり方に鳥肌立ってしまう！ブラボー🤣
Very talented musician
I have listened to this over 20 times thank you it is great and the last 2 minutes just build to a great end. With the percussion. Just masterfully done. Can’t remember the last time I was so enthralled by a remake. 🍻 cheers.
Wow ..... the satisfaction of getting to the end without hitting one wrong note .... incredible
Unbelievable!!!
Bruh I was getting so hyped waiting for that duhduh duhduh duhduh duhduh duh duh
Haha same here and of course, he nailed it!
ME TOOO
me 2 jajaja
You "did that!" Excellent ❤ enjoyed !
this is legendary. No one like Kent
Try Naudo for size...
💯✅
@@nervotica7991 Not even close
I love Kent. But there is another one from Indonesia you can check out. Alip BaTa. Not trying to compare whos better. They are both awesome... 👍

Man...your tone is brilliant. It's perfect.
So, keeping perfect rhythm on the percussion while playing. The background percussion on the original is a loop. Also, the ending is more in line with the live version. This is FANTASTIC! Such skill and as always, your respect for the original feel of the material is second to none.
i cant even fathom it. My jaw dropped and mind blew up... I've been subbed for two years now, and you still manage to stupefy me
Beautiful man this deserves much more views
The 26 people that thumbs down this are not human nor do they have a heart or soul!! This was simply amazing!! Pure talent!
What i find very interesting about his playing, is how he can manage to incorporate the same feeling of the original song. It's all about timing, lightness on the right hand and high level o technique skills. In the world of stell guitar fingerstyle you no match for others. Keep up the good work, greetings from Brazil.
He has done this time and again.
That is absolutely tremendous. It was great all the way through but I was still not expecting what you did at the crescendo. My jaw just dropped.
Making my Thursday better already.
Mine too!!! Albeit a month later, on a Thursday.
I gotta see this live, this is literally a masterpiece cover of the original
I've been waiting for Kent to play this on my life
Not sure how you don't have millions of subscribers yet, not every ear is as perceptive. The control and absolute patience of your techniques inspire me.
Never in my life have I heard such delight come from a guitar... the mind is connected .. incredible! ❤️🎼... and the song choices this man honors.. man o man
You handled THE MOMENT even better than I expected, and I expected you to handle it well. Good stuff, man.
相変わらず天才です。技術だけでも天才なのに叙情的で素晴らし過ぎ…。間違いなく世界最高峰。
Amazing performance. One can truly appreciate how the the whole piece is able to "breathe" and truly come off as organic.
すごい。。。😳💓
言葉が出てこないくらいすごい！！😳😳😳
…just amazing!!!🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻💓💓💓
Unlike other channels that have millions of subs, I'm pretty confident every one of these 200K+ subscribers are for the right right reason. Absolutely incredible.
When a musician conveys and creates emotional feeling in the listener he has become a master at his craft! No need to explain just enjoy the experience!!!
In the air tonight has become canon....a part of the force
As a long-time musician, you're so freaking good it almost makes me angry... almost. Every time you put out a new video I'm simultaneously awed & inspired. As always, great job & I can't wait to see what you come up with next.
The amount of effort that is required to produce this is amazing, yet Kent makes it seem effort less.
Indeed and making the complex seem effortless is the hallmark of true skill and talent.
You are so very blessed with an incredible talent. You have mastered the art of playing the guitar. Wow!
Your thumb/hand rhythm is subtle, complex, and aurally ‘delicious’. Melody & chord choices are excellent, as I’ve come to expect.
The attinence to the original is amazing, even in the vocal part. Incredible.
I really have a huge admiration for this guy here. You are playing the guitar in the most melodious way possible and it captures our hearts. Much love from Philippines. :)
Oh my good grief. That was actually unbelievable, you could be one of the best players on the planet Kent
The one and only, the one man band. Give it up for KENT NISHIMURA!!!
3:10 that build-up and pay-off was awsome!
Great arrangement, masterful execution, pleasurable listening!
Kent Nishimura is my Netflix series burn
Very creative indeed!
This is breathtakingly beautiful.
Very 👍 good! Especially the built up (the groovy part starts at 3:16)! Subscribed!!
Greatest acoustical rendition " EVER"
👌
There are no words
Technically WAW
Only comment I can make is HOW can you do that
Fantastic seen others play in the same style sort of but Kent what a talent you have.
Love it
Thanks for including the tuning, Kent - that way I can correctly tune my guitar, and realize that I still suck.
Joke aside - breathless! I've kept a loose eye on you over time, and you never disappoint. This was next level stuff.
I found another way to be mesmerized by this cover once again, this time to a different level by putting on my headphones..... the details are impossible to describe. take a bow Kent
Kent, you are such an inspiration. Very, very impressed with your interpretation of those masterpieces. Your skill on the instrument is immense and is clearly evidence of hours and hours of intense work. Fantastic stuff. 👏👏👏👏👏👏
I have no idea how he does these arrangements. Absolutely incredible.
I may be wrong but it seems Kent's arrangement is heavily inspired by Phil Collins' performance of this song at the 1986 Eric Clapton & Friends concert in Birmingham. Such a great choice and stylistic arrangement, mad respect
I love how these fine MUSICIAN'S, turn one instrument into two! BRAVO KENT AWESOME ACOUSTIC COVER!!!
3 , bass, drum, rhythm,leed, sorry 4
This dude plays like he has 3 brains in his head... not understanding how he can do all that at one time.. I can barely walk and chew gum at the save time without overthinking it .....WOW
insane arrangement of a truly insane song
Kent deserves million subs and views👍👏👏
The silence at the end is breathtaking. Bravo. Loved every moment.
Awesome Kent. Love it!
This guy deserves millions of likes. What a talent
One of my most listened-to songs ever. You, young man, did a brilliant work of it. Well done.
