He doesnt also play the bassline, i see many elements missing or played WRONG, he played them wrong so it will be easier to sing. He also doesnt focus on his voice, and you can hear many pitch mistakes, it's pretty obvious its hard for him, but he still does it. Props to him for that, but i feel he should've still praticed a bit more
@@danieldoyle6333 Not quite. I can hear it, but he simply doesnt play the bass line. You can even see his thumb doesnt go back up to the C string. He plays the first low bass notes, but the fact that he doesnt implement the open C between transition notes means that the bassline just doesnt exist. Atleast not the proper one.
When you think youre making good progress using the proper technique for this song then you see this kid and now you have to sell your guitars and move to wales to live in the mountains.
I don’t even care how he sounds just the fact he can open his mouth while playing this song is amazing. And he still sounds good while singing. Awesome job man.
As a guitar player this song has been a work in progress for years and I've seen a lot of people cover it. This kid's technique honestly is the best I've seen.
Check out Leo Eymard's version of Neon in the Cifra Club channel, they have a video teaching how to play the song and I honestyly think Leo plays the song even better than Jhon Mayer, technically saying, of course.
This is one song that is almost impossible to cover and do it perfectly. You didn’t do it perfectly but you did it damn well, and sang it at the same time. Good job man.
I love how the good covers off this always involve the groove he does live before the actual song. Also nice having giant hands. Mine are unfortunately too small to thumb the 5 and 10 frets and all others where he does that crazy postion
The fact that he picked it the same way as John mayar was amazing only using thumb and index. This is one of the hardest songs to learn on guitar let alone sing too but this man nailed it!!
this is by far the best cover ive een of this song i think that you did a great job balacing the vocals and guitar an improvised perfectly when you made a mistake to the point where it is almost unnoticeable. all around great job!!
It is always refreshing watching and listening to you. This is another example of your eagerness to learn as much as you can . Keep up the fine work, Will
You just immediately gain the respect from a guitarists when you play this song and can't belive that we have a very similar voice this is my first time to meet
Crazy to think Mayer came up with this lick when he was 20 yrs old. Props on actually learning the picking pattern, 95% of the videos out there neglect this.
sweg i started learning this song yesterday but I tried that thumb tehnique and its it pretty easy for me. Guess I have long fingers because it wasnt any effort at all
i have always thought that it was only John Mayer who could play and sing this insanely difficult rare jewel----Mr Will Trotman Iam glad you proved me wrong...!!
Hi Will, I know time has past and your older now but this is very slick so thanks, I've just turned 65 and am about to take this one on, why ? because music isn't age related, the funny thing about JM is [ as you will know ] that what you do with you're right and is the key ...I've had a few goes but I need a guitar left in the correct tuning at all times or it won't happen, cheers.🙃
You should play it again to show us some improvement! !
Been thinking about doing this! May happen in the near future
This cannot be improved, simple as that
@Knox Pittman you should watch cifraclub cover
@@jac_roberts6683 that’s what I’m saying!! Maybe some mic’d up vocals with compression to even everything out and it’ll sound insane!
@@WillTrotmanMusic do it man it will be awesome
Just a real guitar player knows how difficult this song is.
Funky Pai de Família Cat um Br aqui hu3hu3hu3hu3
Funky Pai de Família Cat but is true
You’re very right!
Funky Pai de Família Cat to do it good and efficient is near damn impossible 😂
fr tho
How can you even sing playing this song!?!?
A lot of practise man ... A LOT !! ;)
He doesnt also play the bassline, i see many elements missing or played WRONG, he played them wrong so it will be easier to sing.

VeozYT he plays the bassline it’s just not easy to hear

VeozYT now I see what your saying, your right

Matthew Pearce wats wrong with wales bud we are the fooken best
Luca Mihail I’m form Cardiff bud
True
@@jameshenry7286 Ooft edgy patter
Matthew Pearce this made me laugh
I don’t even care how he sounds just the fact he can open his mouth while playing this song is amazing. And he still sounds good while singing. Awesome job man.

Muscular memory
@Bruce Ramassar He didnt get the technique down, he doesnt even know the bassline
@Bruce Ramassar Yeah its not bad, but the bass line is off and that ruins the whole song if you have a good ear
@@nazywajmniev true though there is some elements of bass missing but other than that this kid is fucking killing it

You did the whole intro from the Nokia gig, that's awesome
Missing “good evening” lol
That moment when you find out that Andy stoped playing with his toys to play guitar
HottestBurrito109 oh shiiiiiiiit
🤣LOL
So... are the guitars alive too?:0
Whoa...
I got so hyped when he started singing along with it. What a legend
Missing "good evening" but 9/10
10/10 his technique is amazing
Shadow.x it was a joke
9 out of 10 tempo is too fast but
I'm also a lil bit jeleous
all he needed was "good evening"
I didn't think this video could get any better. Then he started to sing.
Underrated comment.
Your slap technique is amazing. Impressed me so much to learn this song !
Thank you! Just made a tutorial on the technique for the song actually. Check it out if you're interested.
My man woke up and said! Alright imma show off today . Bro you killed it . Respect.
We all know what it takes to play this song. That singing is what made this for me. Kudos.
I know it’s 4 years old, but this is absolutely amazing! To play it perfectly and sing amazingly is beyond my talent 👍
bro this man really be singing over this cover while doing the thumb finger thing John does props to you my man
What a fabulous cover of a nigh-on impossible song to play, let alone play & sing. I salute you with both hands, Sir.
The only guy after John Mayer with that ultra flexible thumb ! Bro I use the other fingers but that was ✨
wow. one of the best neon covers.
dam Kid, u play just like him with this ridiculous amazing thumb tecnic. I respect you
Technique*
Oh my God man. When you started singing my eyes almost popped out of my head!
Keep going, you are awesome!
Oi your thumb dude, how is that possible?
More seriously it's the greatest cover of this song I found, congrats !
Thanks for sharing with us this performance. It is so good, magic and intimate that I feel lucky to have the opportunity to watch this.
The fact that you can sing while playing this song correctly is absolutely incredible
Shit was already difficult enough and my man starts singing… respect
This is one song that is almost impossible to cover and do it perfectly. You didn’t do it perfectly but you did it damn well, and sang it at the same time. Good job man.
dude. props ive been learning this song all summer. your pretty good
was impressed by the playing, but then the singing came in too and i was blown away, incredible amounts of talent bro
this entire video left me speechless! Great job bro you blessed my ears 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Even using only two fingers like it was originally played. This must've taken ages to be able to play the song this well and accurately. Good job
AMAZING!
The guitar slapping thumb technique sounds incredibly similar to john’s and I know how hard it is to play it.
I dont think thats johns thing but us it??
I dislocated my thumb just watching
I love how the good covers off this always involve the groove he does live before the actual song. Also nice having giant hands. Mine are unfortunately too small to thumb the 5 and 10 frets and all others where he does that crazy postion
I was impressed as fuck and then he STARTED SINGING IT. Jfc man props to you for being an actual legend
Wow. Mind blown. To master that picking pattern and sing at the same time - jeez
The fact that he picked it the same way as John mayar was amazing only using thumb and index. This is one of the hardest songs to learn on guitar let alone sing too but this man nailed it!!
wonderful！
And the lad sang! Real hats off to this man!
You legend. What a tough song... great job!!!
New York , New York !!!! Awesome performance bro !!!
this is by far the best cover ive een of this song i think that you did a great job balacing the vocals and guitar an improvised perfectly when you made a mistake to the point where it is almost unnoticeable. all around great job!!
This is fucking amazing!
This is hands down the best Neon cover on the internet. Probably off the internet too. Good job man.
AMAZING! YOU GOT EVERY RIFF AND YOU SANG WITH IT TOO!! Excellent!!
Playing this song is an achievement by itself. I can't imagine writing something like this.
Damn man, amazing. I was impressed with the guitar playing but then you started singing it too. Respect. ✊
It is always refreshing watching and listening to you. This is another example of your eagerness to learn as much as you can . Keep up the fine work, Will
Your strumming is awesome, seriously
i actually watch this a lot to remind me of where i need to be with my guitar playing
Five years ago I was dreaming of playing this song, Today the same is happening.
You just immediately gain the respect from a guitarists when you play this song and can't belive that we have a very similar voice this is my first time to meet
What a voice!
Was loving this. Didn't expect the vocals took it up another level. Very talented young man
i really didn't expect you to sing... that's impressive
Woww hahahaha simply amazing. I thought Only John could Sing and play It at the same time. Great performance
Wow... I thought this one was un-coverable. Nice job doing the Live from LA version. Absolutely crazy.
im from Brazil,you abilities are awesome,great!
By the time he started singing, i hit the like button and subscribed
Everything is accurate the slap and two finger picking while singing, man 👏🥺 well done I’m not jealous ...maybe a little ok a lot 😂
This is the best cover of Neon I have ever seen!!
You are so good and you nailed it. Singing along to these crazy codes hahaha thats a real talent
Crazy to think Mayer came up with this lick when he was 20 yrs old. Props on actually learning the picking pattern, 95% of the videos out there neglect this.
you missed the "good evening" hahaha jokes apart, you nailed it bro, AWESOME
Gotta be the most talented cover I’ve seen on here
The G-string just snapped on my guitar, saying stuff that im done playing. Nice job dude
This shit is good. One of the few covers that actually does justice to the intro. Other guys just do a cheap way of it. Congrats
Da******** Slayedd this joint dog!!!!!!!! Smh! Too Fire!!!
this is so raw and cool.
Holy shit you have this technique DOWN
Wow this is the best cover of this song. Idk how you play it so well and sing on top of it. Really great playing and singing here
Cool
Amazing
Awesome
I wonder if music is win saw this ahaha, this guy is able to the thumb thing
sweg i started learning this song yesterday but I tried that thumb tehnique and its it pretty easy for me. Guess I have long fingers because it wasnt any effort at all
I thought the same thing 😂
@@wilsonfisk6156 so true😅
the thumb thing is pretty easy. I'm only 13 and I can do it while playing the song. But my thumbs are pretty weird so makes sense i guess...
When he started singing I fell in love
How, on Earth, can anyone give this performance a "thumbs down"?
Will, a GREAT performance!
That transition was so cleannnn
seriously nailed that on guitar!
My gosh, you are awesome! You're a legend if you play one John Mayer's songs this great! Keeeeeeep itttttt uuuuuuuppp man! Kudos
Dam bro, that was great, this song is so hard to play
That is an incredibly difficult song to play, let alone sing and play at the same time.. Great job
Amazing. Your skill is light years away!
Dude! NEON defines what I want to be as a guitar player. And it's a long way for me. Respect for your effort. And great voice.
Everyone just emphasized on ur guitar’s technique and it’s definitely really impressive! But I love ur voice very much as well!
Great cover! Such a ridiculously hard song to play, absolutely amazing!
i have always thought that it was only John Mayer who could play and sing this insanely difficult rare jewel----Mr Will Trotman Iam glad you proved me wrong...!!
This is really good. But it's amazing how John transcends what even REALLY good guitarists can do with his songs. Incredible.
We've gotta get you to John
Now that's how the percussion played correctly. I see many covers of this song, but they can't do the continuous tapping like you did... Cheers, mate!
Beyond beautiful 🎈😊
This is so perfect ! Congratulations 👏👏👏
Damn that's clean, hell yeah man.

This is amazing! I know how difficult this is to play and you make it look so easy!
You killed it dude! Love this piece from Live in LA. Doing John justice 🤘🏼
Wow! That was impressive! This has to be the best cover up here in YT, keep up the good work.
Fucking killed it mate. Such a hard song to play. And to sing it too
Holy crap…… that’s all I gotta say man ! Truly amazing
I am thoroughly impressed 🎉
Killing it !!
DUDE come on you are the best! how can you play this song omg
Awesome bro I am learning too applaud to you...
