The violins in this song added a whole new dimension to it. I was privileged to see them do it live on this tour. It literally almost made me cry it was so beautiful.
Of all his live shows, this one is my favorite. It's elegantly produced, not over stated and every member's talents are showcased so well. It's a masterpiece.
By far the most beautiful melody and most breathtaking guitar solo I've ever heard in my 50 years of living and 38 years of playing. Still, there are parts in this solo that haunt me as to how Steve came up with them. I could sit and drill this man with questions for days. About music, guitar, and life. He is THE BAR.
He never ceases to amaze me. I've heard this song a thousand times, on cassettes, CDs, TV and tons of videos, and it never gets old! This is the first one I've seen with the violinist though. It's just phenomenal! I like the one with the orchestra, as well.
The crowd doesn't move much....they just want to absorb each note and pay attention. One of the reasons I love Steve Vai is his simplicity as a human being.
At 3:55 he just goes OFF and displays why he is known as one of the best. The way he moves from his whammy hits to keeping the same rhythm as he moves up the neck is amazing. The flourishes afterwards can only be accomplished by the long fingers he displays during this powerful crescendo.
Started playing guitar back in 2011 my mom had this song as a ringtone on her cell phone and in 2013 we saw that Steve Vai is touring and had a concert in my country we rushed to buy tickets that was my very first concert that I went to I was like 11 years old at the time And I fell in love with Vai’s music and his guitar the JEM I am now 21 years old and a proud owner of an Ibanez JEM Steve vai’s signature guitar My favorite part about in this masterpiece is 4:45 still gives me goosebumps till this day
My ears heard it, my eyes saw it, but i still cant describe it. Is this what it sounds like when angels sing?! I thank you- all of you- for using the gift of immense talent that God has given you to lift our spirits!
Steve doesn't play the guitar he is the guitar it's like it becomes an extension of himself the guitar allows him to express the language of music through his heart and soul. Steve is a guitar God
My favorite part is the look on his face, when he realizes how magnificent each note he's hitting sounds, because its just so unique to what anyone has done on guitar before
An easy SV method. His vibrato is accomplished by using his finger to draw dime-sized circles. Not just wiggling up/down or left/right. It's why he has such a signature vibrato. Keep going man and repost in time. Rooting for you.
Should be "For the love of Steve"! Gotta love him for his play and for his featuring new artist and let 'em stand in the light. Great player, great man, period!
"Everyone knows this song too well...we're gonna do this instead!" Mr. Vai (and company) Thanks for the enjoyment, the inspiration and the autograph and selfie at NaMM!
Steve Vai makes me feel like I can fly around freely...no wings attached ..like in a dream..this song is so inspirational through its rythm..the beat and the melody....pure music..thx Steve!!
This is such a beautiful song. it takes me places. My BF could play this so beautifully, I always wanted him to play it for me. RIP Jessie Lee Monroe 🎶🎵🎼🎸🎤😢💔💖💔💖💔
People Steve Vai called the future of guitar: Plini of the band Plini Tosin Abasi of Animals as Leaders Tim Henson of Polyphia All guitarists of Periphery Seriously, check them out. They're not like Vai live, but damn do they make your face melt in astonishment and cry out in beauty just the same when it comes to the studio. Especially Plini and Abasi... Sometimes your brain just can't process how they performed a certain passage or wrote a certain melody... It's powerful stuff.
This woman makes me feel a peace that I cant explain. Shes beauty and the way she plays... Isnt about "wish" her, but I only wants to listen to this music and see her to feel this transcendental peace
Steve Vai and Joe Satriani are the DaVincis and Einsteins of our time. It's an amazing time for music, it has been since these guys started their careers. I'm so glad to have witnessed their Awh and inspiring excellence and significance. Bravo!
Quando ouvi essa música pela primeira vez não conseguia mais parar de escutar Uma verdadeira inspiração divina…segundo reza lenda ele fez jejum de 4 dias antes de compor essa música 🎵
Essa lenda é fake kkk ele já disse como compôs em um vídeo, ele sentia essa música em sua mente e aos poucos ele foi passando para a guitarra esses sons e melodias até que saiu essa obra prima! Ele diz isso no vídeo que ele ensina a tocar essa musica
Back in 2011, on a new year night..me and my friend are wishing each other happy new year. And we played this song ,as the song to welcome the new Year 2011. But sadly after a few months. My friend left the Earth. This song always bring back the memories. And yes. Its his fav musical piece too. I miss you Erich. 1994 to 2011
Not a big fan of his style of music, but he is incredible at what he does and is one of the most unique and original guitarists ever. His technique is incredible, an In a day when all the shredders kind of sound the same, Steve does not. When you hear Vai, you KNOW it's Vai.
Every time I listen to this, I fell some kind of goosebumps shocks swiping through my body. I believe even for Vai this song is like a spiritual experience.
The guitar is literally singing......
im high af and thinking the same
สุดยอดมากครับพมชอบที่สุด
On a masterclass Steve vai said he originaly sang the solo part in his head while he was playing the chords parts
maybe, steve love this song from 70's rock band from philippines. listen the chorus part of this song

5:18 We all just gonna ignore her shredding a freaking violin and harmonizing with Steve Vai at the same time
That girl is super amazing
Super amazing🤩
Lol, as a fan of a few japanese metal bands i see and hear those violin and guitar shredding/harmonies most of the time
@@christiangabo6430 - she sure can play as well!!!
I couldn’t ignore how hot she was though….
4:15 steve himself cant believe how awesome he is
Great observation there XD
Also 4:08 He looks like his mortal body can't handle his god-like abilities...
Giiggle q
HAhahaha 4:23 - "OMG, did you see that? Oh, my God, look what I did again! Man, what am I doing?!"
You idiot he was turning into super saiyan 3.
i got chills when that violin started playing
Then look at this, you'll love it: ua-cam.com/video/l5AQvPCPjwc/v-deo.html
True.it feels like they are making love when Steve starts to join the melody with her.
shes beautiful
Do tell...😂
Beautiful and playing with passion ❤️
Watched this an unbelivable amount of times, Steve is the best living guitarist without a doubt
He's so good that he makes me sick lol
Agreed
see the difference? no one is with his fucking cellphone, that's what i call a good audience
That was in 2007 .___.
.....
the audience is listening.
no, they slept!
Red Head 😂😂😂
This video shows that how crazy steve vai is for music. I love you steve vai and thanks for your priceless music. The world loves you.
Fun fact: The fan isnt plugged in, his hair is just naturally that majestic whenever he plays

จริงที่สุด
after all these years,
this song still gives me that "journey of the lost soul" feel.
He dosen't 'play' the guitar. He extracts the pure essence of music out of it.
Steve Vai gets so connected with his music......i can feel it...legend!!
My goodness no one can beat this guy. I guess, he's amazing.😎😆😉

Still, there are parts in this solo that haunt me as to how Steve came up with them. I could sit and drill this man with questions for days. About music, guitar, and life.
He is THE BAR.
I heard that Steve fasted for several days to create this song. Surely this song was spiritually inspired.
He never ceases to amaze me. I've heard this song a thousand times, on cassettes, CDs, TV and tons of videos, and it never gets old! This is the first one I've seen with the violinist though. It's just phenomenal! I like the one with the orchestra, as well.

I think there's more than a couple who think they're having flashbacks from the Zappa days.
This is not just masterful playing, that guitar was fucked 6 ways from Sunday. She walked like a cowboy afterwards.
I think the guitar is dead now from that serious rape near the end
***** No kidding, Vai is an absolute monster, with every note having feels for decades.
some say the guitar cried for 20 weeks before it was playable once again..
People say Steve fingered a girl 17 years ago. She's still having orgasms to this day.
At 3:55 he just goes OFF and displays why he is known as one of the best. The way he moves from his whammy hits to keeping the same rhythm as he moves up the neck is amazing. The flourishes afterwards can only be accomplished by the long fingers he displays during this powerful crescendo.
"the long fingers he displays during this powerful crescendo," your weird bro🤣
@@antsinyourpants4095 Some of the best players of music have good LONG fingers. It IS weird, but his fingers ARE long.

Steve Vai is definitely the one of the best guitarists of his generation, and possibly all time.
In what reality ? This is possibly the most horrible sound to ever come out of an amplifier
@@AcousticOlli Never said he couldn't play he obviously can play the sound is very important and it is horrible
@@mauro100
Didn't say he's the best....
Joe satriani and Eddie van Halen invented the tapping technique well Eddie van Halen did it first . Everybody else just copied Eddie .
Bruh Steve Vai is not an EVH clone…
Brazil loves you Steve. God loves you, Jesus loves you, the world loves you! Awesome, thank you!
Amém 🙌 2021, june.
steve dosent make songs, he composes masterpieces. and the lady playing the violin..... just respect to all the members here 🤘
Vai, his Magic Carpet, Flo, the violinist; it all fits together. What a great performance.
I love how the fretless bassist feels the octave so much. this truly is the greatest example of musical "Feel" you can find out there.
I hope the guitar Steve used is over 18 years old.
+Alex Mercer Lol
+Alex Mercer it must be over 30 :)
+serdar senturk U haven't figured out :) he should wrote 18+ :D
+Various Things you must come from saudi arabia
Mercy !
I mean really.....how much better can he make this song? So great!!
I cant believe who i discover this today.
Omg tons of tears fall.
Honestly Vai’s playing can almost bring a tear to my eye it’s so beautiful
wow did she just shred on a violin? for the love of god!
Shred guitar was inspired by old orchestral music.
Who's name that girl?
Mary Simpson@@mufidilhamputrawisuda4479
Uns dos solos de guitarra mais lindo que ouvi na minha opinião.
Steve Vai é um mito.🇧🇷🎸
My ears heard it, my eyes saw it, but i still cant describe it. Is this what it sounds like when angels sing?! I thank you- all of you- for using the gift of immense talent that God has given you to lift our spirits!
6:40 How I start up my car
Update : Now I've got an electric start car
omfg dude I was crying at that
L!
You made me laugh so loud in the library, I almost got kicked out. I spent 2 hours holding back a grin.

Lmao 😂
Felipe Martinez spinning' ta get it started
Steve Vai, you touch my soul with joy. May God always Bless you!
HARI,KRISHNA
Steve, himself =is music...
Him makes the guitar really cry.
Steve doesn't play the guitar he is the guitar it's like it becomes an extension of himself the guitar allows him to express the language of music through his heart and soul. Steve is a guitar God
@@robertescobar535
No body like him.
My favorite part is the look on his face, when he realizes how magnificent each note he's hitting sounds, because its just so unique to what anyone has done on guitar before
that Fernandes sustainer doing it's job in the end haha... gotta love it
An easy SV method. His vibrato is accomplished by using his finger to draw dime-sized circles. Not just wiggling up/down or left/right. It's why he has such a signature vibrato. Keep going man and repost in time. Rooting for you.
That's epic dude gotta try that. Great observation man
I watch steve vai video at least once a month to remind me what it looks like see someone a human with god skills.
4:01 will forever be my favorite part
Should be "For the love of Steve"!
Gotta love him for his play and for his featuring new artist and let 'em stand in the light. Great player, great man, period!
My tears keep falling whenever i listen to this song. Amazing Performance!
That intro where the violin started gave me goosebumps. This song never fails to amaze me every time i hear it.
I agree, I have listen to this song a billion times. It really take me up to the heavens. And the violin also brought tears of joy.
La mejor versión q he escuchado en los últimos 10 años, una melodía espléndida....suave....fuerte....estremecedor.
This is the only artist who can make me cry without doing anything. Amazing
I could listen to this for days and days. One of the most beautiful instrumental songs ever written or played.
One of the most beautiful pieces ever written ... ever!!!
For the love of god. Very beautiful song... Great Steve Vai. So good... Thank you.
"Everyone knows this song too well...we're gonna do this instead!" Mr. Vai (and company) Thanks for the enjoyment, the inspiration and the autograph and selfie at NaMM!
this is a very very very beautiful piece of music.
Best rendition of this amazing song I have ever heard.
2023 - Still the best song, best guitarist, best year. God Bless.
Maybe not the #1 best, but for sure up there 100%
I love how he seems to re arrange this song every tour...I NEVER hear the same version..and i always enjoy the most recent best
Não tenho palavras.... simplesmente magnifico...
Such a beautiful piece of art
Steve Vai makes me feel like I can fly around freely...no wings attached ..like in a dream..this song is so inspirational through its rythm..the beat and the melody....pure music..thx Steve!!
So much passion, feeling and absolute love for his instrument.. It's truly inspiring!
2:29 that face tho, he had a good time
I was fortunate to see Steve live in NJ, love you man . .this song is my meditation and prayer
The duel with the violin ...literal goosebumps!!
This is such a beautiful song. it takes me places. My BF could play this so beautifully, I always wanted him to play it for me. RIP Jessie Lee Monroe 🎶🎵🎼🎸🎤😢💔💖💔💖💔
This man is greatest musician I've ever laid eyes on and this song is the most beautiful creation in the entire universe I don't care if you disagree.
People Steve Vai called the future of guitar:
Plini of the band Plini
Tosin Abasi of Animals as Leaders
Tim Henson of Polyphia
All guitarists of Periphery
Seriously, check them out. They're not like Vai live, but damn do they make your face melt in astonishment and cry out in beauty just the same when it comes to the studio.

Best guitar instrumental of all time
Probably his best composition, sublime ☘
Extraordinary powerful and soulful... Steve's guitar says more than words
My Favorite Steve Vai song. So much emotion in it for me.AWESOME!!!
Quando ouvi essa música pela primeira vez não conseguia mais parar de escutar Uma verdadeira inspiração divina…segundo reza lenda ele fez jejum de 4 dias antes de compor essa música 🎵

Even in 2020 Steve Vai and his music is fantastic I have been listening to him for a long while
His music will still be fantastic in 3020
Best rock guitarist I’ve ever seen
when she started playing the intro, that is where my heart melted❤💕❤💖
Um dos melhores solos que vi na vida
"the ham is always cooking with me brother... Always cooking!" -Steve Vai
Love it till this day OMG! Steve is just the living legend ❤💓👌
Best version ever.

what emotion ride this is...
That was Incredible!!!
The more I listen to this Live Version of FTLOG the better It feels ! It has become a tree of love everbearing fruit in my head.
When you've run out of 2 foot lengths of log........FTLOG
Love how his hair flies at 2:07. You can feel the power of this music :D
correct
My favorite Vai song. Next to whispering a prayer and tender surrender.
Back in 2011, on a new year night..me and my friend are wishing each other happy new year. And we played this song ,as the song to welcome the new Year 2011. But sadly after a few months.
My friend left the Earth.
This song always bring back the memories.
And yes. Its his fav musical piece too.
I miss you Erich.
1994 to 2011
The man! Satch and u man oh man! Nothing better! What a gr8 rendition! Love the violins and the back ground sitar!
Not a big fan of his style of music, but he is incredible at what he does and is one of the most unique and original guitarists ever. His technique is incredible, an In a day when all the shredders kind of sound the same, Steve does not. When you hear Vai, you KNOW it's Vai.
No doubt this piece means alot to Steve.
A truly incredible musician. He hasn't lost any of his technique or ability with age...just amazing.
Thank you
Steve alone himself is enough for that stage.
ohhh man when the violinist matches vais guitar causes a harmony and sounds like a laser beam
Every time I listen to this, I fell some kind of goosebumps shocks swiping through my body. I believe even for Vai this song is like a spiritual experience.
It’s just so beautiful every time I hear it.
