Hey everyone! For this year's addition to the Christmas tab playlist, I decided to create a rock instrumental version of "All I want for Christmas is You"! My goal was to reimagine the vocals melodies on lead guitar, and just add a rock twist to the whole song overall. LEADS I did my best to capture the nuance of the vocal inflections. Although, I may have taken some creative liberties with the note rhythms and choices to better a guitar-focused arrangement. There is some added a chorus effect on all of the leads, inspired by Mariah’s double-tracked vocals. INTRO At the beginning, you'll hear some harmonics - I went 12 frets higher and used my right hand to gently lay on the strings while plucking with my thumb. If anyone knows the exact name for this technique, please share! I thought it was fitting, considering the original uses chimes. RHYTHM The drums and bass stay pretty true to the original track, but I added some power chord chugging for a little extra energy. ENDING The studio version fades out, so I drew inspiration from some of the live performances I found to give it a proper finish. Feel free to share your thoughts and your own interpretations! Merry Rockin’ Christmas! 🎄🎶🤘
That was surprisingly...Awesome. I had no idea what to expect seeing "Mariah Carey" in the title. This is up there with getting some Gary Ho Ho Hoey for Christmas.
Awesome version... Any chance you could do Van Halen- Dancing in the streets? I haven't been able to find a decent video on this one. Also, dialing in the delay/sweep echo effect he's using. Thanks Boss. Love your content! Happy Holidays
hey man love the work. but i was wondering if you could please do a backing track for this cover, so that we could play along with the track, especially for buskers such as myself. Cheers, keep it up!

So beautiful. Congratulations. What about My Love of Paul Mccartney. Its song is amazing and i believe that your fingerstyle version will be wonderful.

Where can I request tabs for you to do?
I enjoyed this arrangement WAY more than I should have. Nicely done!!
If I'm not wrong its called artificial harmonics
Jesus loves you
What does the small numbers mean? That you just hold it without plucking the note?
I'm not even a Mariah Carey fan, but you simply can't skip what art Mr. Tabs made out of this song.
Agreed
When Slash records in the same studio as Mariah Carey :
Most underrated comment I’ve ever seen legit
What then?
So accurate lol
You say that because of the guitar? Tone? Or playing?
@@luissiu3984 I think both
You make this song bearable
You're just saying that because the words are absolutely ridiculous.
Yeah lol😂
nah its still a catchy christmas song despite being overplayed
this song is a banger bro wym
No way , I asked you for this song and you did it , NO WAYYYY
Nice
Ikr
MR TABS IS THE GOAT, DO YOU GUYS AGREE?
