Once the drums are removed , it really shows how INSANE their drummer is. The drummer wrote such a perfect part as not to overwhelm the song, rather blend right in.
Was hoping they'd officially release something like this after hearing Tim's unplugged playthrough, but this really went above and beyond any expectations-the lush piano and strings are really fantastic and bring a whole new dimension to the track.
Man I want Polyphia to do the soundtrack for Bayoneta 3 so bad with these overlaying instruments based on if you’re in combat or not. It just keeps reminding of it for some reason 😅
never thought Id see bayonetta mentioned under a polyphia song.. and I didnt expect it to be such a great idea not sure the world could handle how hot that game would be though
Need an entire acoustic album with more piano. Maybe get clay to try his best to do intricate rhythms on a cajon. Something to get the whole band behind an acoustic album cause this is amazing
Playing with rods should be enough to tone down the drums a bit. Slightly different technique but you get a much different tone out of the drums and it would fit this style really nicely, I think!
this was the first thing i listened to this morning. i regret nothing. THE PIANO, incredible. heavenly arrangement. grooved hard even without the drums. much love
The NYC show earlier this month(august 2022) was so goddamn hype. Opened up a pit for g.o.a.t. everyone singing along to Euphoria and Champagne and the floor shaking beneath you cause everyone was jumping. Thanks a ton fellas for everything you do.
As great as this sounds, I still catch myself yearning for the drums to kick in. I think this just confirms my personal thought that its the drums that really makes the original so amazing.
Okay so UA-cam, you know I like Polyphia, I've listened to playing god like 50 times, I've even watched tonnes of covers by other people... yet you never in the last YEAR thought to show me the OFFICIAL acoustic cover that is on the actual official Polyphia channel? What kind of stupid algorithm do you have running there?
I woke up in the middle of the night because of a lightning storm, decided to hop onto yt for some reason and found this compilation had been uploaded less than 5 minutes prior to that (I've been playing the 3 tracks on repeat ever since). Even god knows what's up, lmao
Don't get me wrong, the original sounded absolutely amazing...but this...this sounded different. It just drew a lot more detail. It sounds more *_heavenly_*
EXACTLY what I was thinking. It sounds biblical even. Like the magnum opus of Lucifer while he was still the angel of music and light (I'm not religious btw)
Love both, but the beauty details really shine. Love the visual. Oh yes reminded me of Paco, Al and John on steroids. Elegant gypsy influenced but top shelf 30 years later. Innovative guitar techniques with very tasty chords with virtuosic flares. Spiced with piano runs and voicings adding to the heavenly image.
This is so different than the original with what I'm presuming is an upright bass instead of an electric bass + effects. I love both! This doesn't drop as hard but allows more detail to be hard. Well done!
I ABSOLUTElY love this version of the song but I really wish the piano was louder because it's such a beautiful addition to this song. It would sparkle more imo. But still what an amazing rendition! ♥♥
This is my favorite version! As a recent music discovery for me I am late to the game but OMFG this is brilliant!! I NEVER say this but, I can listen to this on loop, ALL DAMN DAY!! It sticks in my head, and I smile!
i was on my spotify when polyphia G.O.A.T played through my random songs. i grabbed my phone immediately to click favorites so i can search up this band soon as i get home from work. Ive been a fan ever since i discovered polyphia. you guys are going to be big and its happening already. :)
Special thanks to Summer Swee-Singh for lending her beautiful piano playing to this version.

You played well!
Most underrated comment 🤪

so true
Both Clays are amazing and don;t get as much focus as they deserve.
yeah. missing the beat.
@@JohnnyChronic18 the drummer clay is definetly getting his due recognition with his work in this album
@@zaimchin har har thanks dad
This acoustic version deserves a live playthrough, with the pianist and all, where the piano sound is a bit louder in the mix
i swear the piano shouldve been louder and it sounds like an epiano and not a real piano.
@@Pi22aPino oh it’s real, and it’s spectacular
I’d listen to that
Yall crazy the mix is solid af.
you hear nuances you didnt notice with the original that really brings out the preciseness in the music. love it THANK YOU POLYPHIA
precision
@@jawaring4367 thank you so much. i almost lost my mind.
it's been a long while since english class
I want the piano tabs
Well "Preciseness" is in fact a word in English, it is another synonym of "Precision", you're alright haha.
Was hoping they'd officially release something like this after hearing Tim's unplugged playthrough, but this really went above and beyond any expectations-the lush piano and strings are really fantastic and bring a whole new dimension to the track.
I was thinking exactly this
@@odjsjaks yeah… no.
Was hoping, too, but this isn't anything close to the unplugged version.
Unplugged band version with acoustic bass and percussion kit plus piano.
@@odjsjaks You might want to get that earwax out of your ear and listen to it again. What the f are you talking about.
@@odjsjaks Tell me what's wrong? I'll listen.
That piano is so beautiful and it just fits perfectly
@Atichon N. because he’s cultured, just accept it.
Dude got good taste
Damn dude do you comment full time
If you see him everywhere, you are also everywhere.
- A wise man
Bro is even with the guitar communiyt
Man I want Polyphia to do the soundtrack for Bayoneta 3 so bad with these overlaying instruments based on if you’re in combat or not. It just keeps reminding of it for some reason 😅
THAT WOULD BE SO SICKKKKKK
I don't play Bayonetta but this would totally fit it to a T
never thought Id see bayonetta mentioned under a polyphia song.. and I didnt expect it to be such a great idea
not sure the world could handle how hot that game would be though
Totally agree, the fast melody is so align with the fast pace of the gameplay
And the melodies or effects for Witch Time in Polyphia style
Piano goes hard 🔥
No cap🔥
Ong 🔥
Fr 🔥
shouldve been louder
💜🥹🙏🏽🎹😭🥰
This is what I imagined music should sound like in scifi or future movies. A touch of classical, a touch of today and something alien. Love it.
Totalmente de acuerdo

Need an entire acoustic album with more piano. Maybe get clay to try his best to do intricate rhythms on a cajon. Something to get the whole band behind an acoustic album cause this is amazing
Aw man I’d feel bad for Aeschliman’s hands
Playing with rods should be enough to tone down the drums a bit. Slightly different technique but you get a much different tone out of the drums and it would fit this style really nicely, I think!
@@wantonsonor actually, it would be dope to hear Aeschliman on some congas or something
YAS! Someone else who heard the need for a Cajon in this mix. It synergizes so well w the mariachi licks going off.
Or he could use his standard kit without any electronic pads because a drum kit is an acoustic instrument
This is good but this makes me appreciate the drums and the bass even more
D&B version when
this was the first thing i listened to this morning. i regret nothing. THE PIANO, incredible. heavenly arrangement. grooved hard even without the drums. much love

I was there! It’s was sick
I was there too! It was fucking nuts!
was there too. wish i was forward enough in the crowd to mosh
How the fuck did they sing it?
@@yme3345 My thoughts exactly lol
As great as this sounds, I still catch myself yearning for the drums to kick in. I think this just confirms my personal thought that its the drums that really makes the original so amazing.
was thinking the exact same thing. the drums make it imho
As much as I like the drums, the piano fits the vibes for this specific song more for me. But that's just me.
Same I feel like it needs more of that bass. I like the piano but I think the original is so much better
Oh wow the piano being so prominent is exactly what I needed in this song, beautiful
I feel trully blessed to have discovered this band.
But I love the drums for this song so much.
Needs more Clays.
Everyone does
As awesome as this is, I really miss the drums and bass.
if you don't understand the music is best for you to just shut up
@rohanpogii lmao
It sounds so sophisticated with just the guitar, piano, and strings
Okay so UA-cam, you know I like Polyphia, I've listened to playing god like 50 times, I've even watched tonnes of covers by other people... yet you never in the last YEAR thought to show me the OFFICIAL acoustic cover that is on the actual official Polyphia channel?

Wow, the piano adds so much.
this song is actually a musical masterpiece, like historical 👀
1:17 fav part
Honestly love all the playing god content
Because I am only used to hearing the non-acoustic version of it, I was genuinly waiting for the drums to come in...
The piano is just.... *chef's kiss*
The piano is absolutely gorgeous. I feel like I’m levitating when I listen to this
piano fits so well omg
I woke up in the middle of the night because of a lightning storm, decided to hop onto yt for some reason and found this compilation had been uploaded less than 5 minutes prior to that (I've been playing the 3 tracks on repeat ever since). Even god knows what's up, lmao
Wish I’d found this about 4 months earlier. This has a more serene version with Summer’s piano, love this so FREAKIN’ much.
I cannot in Good Conscience Listen to this Song without Drums on it. I HEAR IT IN MY HEAD AND ITS DRIVING ME MAD when I listen to this version.
2:40 normally i hate delay effect but this is the best delay sound that i have ever heard, it fits perfectly on rhythm
Omg the piano blew me away!!! It’s so good!!
🥹🙏🏽💜
The editing on this is insane, your producer deserves a high five haha
they have like 5 producers on this song imao
@@nourel-deenayman3943 imao = in my ass off?
Make summer an official polyphia member already . She deserved it
at least release an album featuring her(acoustic remakes or/and new songs)
Don't get me wrong, the original sounded absolutely amazing...but this...this sounded different. It just drew a lot more detail. It sounds more *_heavenly_*
EXACTLY what I was thinking. It sounds biblical even. Like the magnum opus of Lucifer while he was still the angel of music and light (I'm not religious btw)
Such a deep dive into little intricacies that went unnoticed and have come forward. And that piano is Sick. And i cant even play human.
went to the chicago show and it was a sick loved the interaction they gave the crowd cant wait to go on another future tour.
Ngl I like this better than the original bc of how much emphasis is put on the sheer guitar work
I like this song so much🥰
Love both, but the beauty details really shine. Love the visual. Oh yes reminded me of Paco, Al and John on steroids. Elegant gypsy influenced but top shelf 30 years later. Innovative guitar techniques with very tasty chords with virtuosic flares. Spiced with piano runs and voicings adding to the heavenly image.
It's so awesome they released this for free, like nobody ever does that. What legends
Wdym, all their music is free on their channel
the gods are benevolent
@@Ronaldo-pq3gk normally you'd pay for backing tracks and stuff
@@who_cares__ this isnt a backing track though
@@who_cares__ bro they don't have a vocalist l0l
This is so different than the original with what I'm presuming is an upright bass instead of an electric bass + effects. I love both! This doesn't drop as hard but allows more detail to be hard. Well done!
1:37 fav part, insane creativity
That was awesome. They just keep giving us fans these little love letters. 😍 Much respect and love from Flint, Michigan!!
the paino parts sound gorgeous
👍👍👍Way better than original version. Love.👍👍👍
If there was a guitar track battle this would surely be a diss track.. This dwarfs every other piece out there.
What I needed, thanks a lot
I ABSOLUTElY love this version of the song but I really wish the piano was louder because it's such a beautiful addition to this song. It would sparkle more imo. But still what an amazing rendition! ♥♥
Piano makes a huge difference!!! 🔥 🔥
This is insane, please make an acoustic album😭🙏🏻
Very brilliant and fresh stuff, love it, we need more music like this :)
Beautiful, god tier
Love the piano
This just might be my favorite Polyphia Track
loving these different renditions. Acoustic and beat versions are thumbs up! Keep them coming boys!
This is my favorite version! As a recent music discovery for me I am late to the game but OMFG this is brilliant!! I NEVER say this but, I can listen to this on loop, ALL DAMN DAY!! It sticks in my head, and I smile!
This is amazing… never fails to amaze me the skill within Polyphia
yoo some of that piano stuff ive never heard before is so sick, especially in the jazz section.
no way that was there in the OG... seriously?
Wow I really love the part at the end where the piano is suddenly clearly recognizable!
instantly knew the piano was Summer. She’s so talented
Omg this is so sweet, tysm 🥹💜
ok but somehow, literally everything about this video is beautiful
Awesome!
The piano is a masterpiece with the guitar
i was on my spotify when polyphia G.O.A.T played through my random songs. i grabbed my phone immediately to click favorites so i can search up this band soon as i get home from work. Ive been a fan ever since i discovered polyphia. you guys are going to be big and its happening already. :)
Summer Keys~ Sounding So Fine~
the piano is lit🔥
Insane level of creativity
What's that extra note at 0:16 ? Bass line doing a half step sliding back up?
Three gifts in the form of uploads from Polyphia. It’s a good day.
Wee want more of this, this polyphia's acoustic version is the best !!!!!
Can't wait for the instrumental version!
Doesn’t matter how many times I hear this track I always have one thought… Tim Henson was made in a lab he’s that good
This version of Playing God is amazing and the artwork is so beautiful! I can't wait for the album 🖤🔥
Polyphia being Epic as usual. Keep being amazing, nothing but good things are in your futures. \m/\m/
The art though, holy shit
Why is this actually so pretty Help. Oh yeah I’m seeing y’all in 2 weeks I’m so excited 💃💃
The piano was a nice touch.
Omg I like this version the best. The piano 😍😍😍
Raged at a video game 3 minutes ago now I have the biggest smile on my face thanks guys
Love the piano
kinda my discovery of the year
How is this even better....I love it so much.
This band is so awesome. Playing God has to be my most favorite from them
The perfect combination of beauty and technicality.
This is the most beautiful sounding thing I’ve heard
Thanks for the 2 extra songs at the end if the chicago concert!
Ana-Log-cabin-syrup-simmered in sol Estas of def-thomes echos.
The taste is full; The sound profound.
Okay well now I need to learn the piano part 😍
IT ONLY GOT SPICIER!!!! 🔥🔥🔥
NOW DO AN ENTIRE ALBUM WITH HER!!
PLEASE MOREE ACOUSTIC SONGS!! I can't stop listening
This is beautiful
Gonna see these guys tonight and I’m so excited I could cry
Nice
New polyphia slaps
Great cover, you guys have potential. Thanks for the great show in New York! Flawless playing
1:24 the piano here is so beautiful
Tysm 🙏🏽💜🎹🥹
I love how soundcloud-era the second half of this song is. I wonder of Polyphia listens to a lot of future bass
I so thankful I'm alive during the time this band came out
honestly better than the original, and that says something. favorite part is still that riff in the beginning
Piano 🔥
The piano makes me COOM 😳😩
Subs on this vid going hard all the way. Absolute unit of a song.
Such a beautiful piece
