It makes me feel better that it's not his first time listening to it and after listening countless times I can't play any part of it, yeah I'll just continue to listen
actually it makes the song easier as it's not difficult for an experienced guitar player to incorporate and it helps him stay in rhythm. it would only be difficult if you've never done it before.
@davidsantiago7808 im a beginner guitarist but have been singing playing piano and doing digital production for few years and its way easier to sing and play by slappin

@@bnjabravo "not even an aboslute pitch guy can play the exact same digitation at that speed" - an absolute pitch guy can hear every note no problem just like you can hear English(or your native language) at any speed even like 2x.

It is still playing by ear, because he didn't look at any tabs (probably even before).
He is definitely godlike at guitar. But there's no way this is the first time he has played or listened to the song. Some songs are pretty easy to just pick up and mimic after a first listen, but this insane proggy shit is just impossible to transpose via ear on your first listen. This only applies to the main intro riff. The other riffs that he's playing after could very well be transposed after a first listen because it's much simpler.
@@maximooze3196 There's just no way you're able to listen to a riff like this once and transpose it instantly with 0 error. Everything is correct, down from the augmented chords to the weird syncopated notation and random arpeggios. You can hear the parts that he's playing for the first time in this video, being the sections after the main riff. How do you hear it's the first time he played it? Because he does alot of mistakes and plays it wrong. He knows what scale the song is in though so he can improvise the skill in 4/4 instead. But the main riff which is, probably 5 times harder and more complex he plays pretty much flawlessly. It's really telling.
@@henrikswanstrom9218 Its harmonically straightforward and the melody is completely diatonic. I was able to guess the chords first try when I played just based on music theory and experience AND I don't have good chops. It's seems realistic this guy could get this far on one listen .
ok, so I think is the most musical genius moment I have ever seen. He listens to that insane minute long part of the song and plays it from memory!!!??? I can't express how impressed I am, you are one of the most talented people I have ever watched.
He didn’t learn it on the spot. This is him revisiting it. He’s read and learned it through the official music sheet. But he hasn’t played it very long. I think he practiced it a few times and kinda stopped. Very impressive still
@@joshuawinters6591 not the official sheet, fingering is different from the original song, so likely he just learned by ear which is not surprising if he had enough time
I been following him for years...and I stopped watching all his videos because he is too good. But its hilarious how good he is to just pick up a difficult song like this in no time. Sungha is the the best fingerstyle guitarist
I'm actually learning a lot watching how you piece this together. I take it you're finding a chord and adding embellishments to it as you go, much more quickly than most people I'd admit but I can see what's going on. Cool to see you add your own techniques with the chord embellishments, wish I can come up with ideas that quick on the fly.

People don’t understand how hard the outro is. You think the main riff is hard until you actually sit and learn it. Then you realize that the outro is what makes that song such a right of passage for players.
I don’t think this is his first time listen to the song. He said at 0:25, “I haven’t play the song but the intro”. So he already listen to the song already because he knows how to play the intro.

@@UtkarshShrivastava-pf9vk Yes, really. He's said it earlier himself in the stream. He's tried/practiced it about a month and some change prior. Not to denounce him or anything. I'm just saying he didn't exactly go in unaware of chords. This is him coming back to it
So....this is amazing, and one thing I'm sure he's doing is watching their playing in the video. If you're at this level of fingerstyle guitar, just watching someone's hands is like 75% of the job of learning the song.
For those who say "OMG how talented" or "pure talent," the truth is that it takes years of grinding and playing every day for at least 2 hours.... the only talent in playing a musical instrument is hearing, and the ability to differentiate notes - and even that takes time -
i knew there was a reason i used to watch all his stuff back like 10-12 years ago..... used to try to play some of his versions of sungha's stuff. crazy to hear it for like 30 seconds and get that close to perfect....

I just watched 3 other very good guitar players and teachers being stumped by Henson's amazing playing, and also seen how Playing God is arguably called the most difficult guitar riff. And then Sungha listens to the intro ONCE and picks out like 90-95% of the intro just like that; like it was the easiest song ever. I have not been surprised and mind-blown this much since I saw Dimash for the first time. To think you were that 11 year old boy I had the fortune to meet, and now you are here basically in God mode!
i remember when he posted one of his first videos while we were in elementary music school everyone went crazy in class 15 years later he is as crazy as ever
I've been listening to Sungha's covers for YEARS and not until 10/16/2023 did I know the dude can speak English, and very well. I assume when you can completely master the guitar, leasrning english must be a walk in the park.

I just watched 3 other very good guitar players and teachers being stumped by Henson's amazing playing, and also seen how Playing God is arguably called the most difficult guitar riff.
And then Sungha listens to the intro ONCE and picks out like 90-95% of the intro just like that; like it was the easiest song ever.
I have not been surprised and mind-blown this much since I saw Dimash for the first time.
To think you were that 11 year old boy I had the fortune to meet, and now you are here basically in God mode!
Bro is teaching his music teacher
😭😅🤣🤣
Sungha jung unlocked god mod a long long time ago, playing a track so difficult after listening to it for a few seconds, wont shock me.
Playing the song with the acoustic twist sounds incredibly funky 👍
he is literally a genius
Everyone has a wall where no amount of practice can overcome it. This mans wall is further out than most and that is what we call talent.
Incredible stuff my guy
This man including the slaps too
Tim Henson and Sungha Jung are so alike. It's like one is the evil version and the other is the good version.
Sungha Jung is top tier villain
Ichika Nito is the antihero
Sungha is on another level bro
Kent Nishimura *laughs in fingerstyle*
I would watch this anime
Heaven vs Hell Shredders
prodigy guys are really amazing, plus experience, practice and talent. damn. 🔥
your just too good,i love too watch you and polyphia collab
They - You can't play Tim henson (Polyphia God) Sungha Jung - Hold my beer let me grab my guitar...🔥
i like your name
The intro riff alone took me like an hour non stop of practice to get it smooth
U must be really good at guitar
i remember when he posted one of his first videos while we were in elementary music school everyone went crazy in class 15 years later he is as crazy as ever
I have watched so many videos of musicians trying to figure out this song. This made my jaw drop.
Sungha is an OG UA-camr agreeed?
everyone else just wants river flows in you
that dude who kept spamming "play river flows in you" that's like spamming "play smoke on the water" in tim henson's chat lol
I've been listening to Sungha's covers for YEARS and not until 10/16/2023 did I know the dude can speak English, and very well. I assume when you can completely master the guitar, leasrning english must be a walk in the park.
He ain’t playing god, he’s a god
sungha just build diff. no cap 👑
First time I read "Sungha Jung" and "tries" in a same sentence…
Witnessing talent like this is a joy...
When this is all you do, and you're as skilled and dedicated as Sungha Jung it's not going to be that difficult to pick up a song.
not gonna doubt. this kid was eating acoustic guitar since birth
Damn you're a genius! hats off you make me want to practice more
How can that be possible? so much talent and hard work of course. impressive.
sungha jung needs to be featured in Polyphia.. or at least with Tim Henson
People saying "I want his talent" or "how talented you've been born", just make me laugh so hard. Idiots.
