No one does acoustic guitar cover arrangements like Kent Nishimura - he does all the parts with symphonic purity. Bravo Kent! You are a legend already, at your young age.
This is the most incredible display of musicianship I’ve ever seen. This guys has to be one of the best acoustic guitar players in the world. Hands down.
just listened with my audio headphones.. dam... the bass and the depth and the different dimensions he is playing.. beyond words. The thing better than Kent Nishimura on speakers, is listening KN with the Headphones + amp.
I've heard something about needing 10,00 hours to truly become a master in something.... Kent you are a master. I can't even estimate how many hours you have put into even one of your arrangements. Your skill, talent, hard work, and dedication is truly remarkable.
This song has been covered by many wonderful solo artists, and Kent has done a fantastic service to this tune with his arrangement, I think we can all agree on that… I would love to believe John is humble enough to realize how much talent has tried to replicate his timeless melody, cause after all, can you imagine being the man that wrote and produced this first?! And then seeing guys like this pay real homage… Awesome, and fantastic Kent!
i think i saw about 20 arrangements of this song, from top youtubers to amateurs but this one is by far the best executed, the choice of tuning along with Kent incredible skills makes this the best arrangement.
Ken, I’ve seen John Mayer do this live. John is most amazing live. John should get you to come up on stage an perform this with him and his band sometime. You are a master!!! Thanks for your wonderful renditions.
I'm just spamming the comments at this point for the algorithm. Learning this song is highly recommended. I've only just begun but the opening part alone is sooooooooooo incredibly satisfying to play. The hand movements feel so f-ing good. I keep giggling to myself saying "kent you absolute monster!"
@@HooksBill maybe he is talking about the arrangement package.soundwise,when you compare those two it feels like somethings missing like every other..kent is just amazing at that.never getting out of beat even while tapping or making harmonics.like an actual one man band.others dont have that or comes close i think
All the above mentioned artists are exceptional, but they have a tendency to be 'gimmicky'. With Mr. Nishimura there is a tremendous amount of emotional content as well as exceptional technical skill.
This might be the fullest and most beautifully rich guitar sounds I’ve ever heard! Coupled with your amazing playing, this is just gorgeous beyond words.
Been playing Kent Nishimura for my tomota plants this year. I have deviated in no way for the last 5 years with the exception of playing Kent's music and I'm happy to report they are more plentiful and delicious than ever!
So much going on harmoniously at the same time! Such a beautiful piece! You are a musical master! Thank you for sharing your beautiful gift with this world. ❤
I watched this before on my laptop and phone but it wasn't until I viewed this on my big screen, quality-speaker-equipped PC that I realized how many little notes he plays inbetween that got completely lost on my other devices. This guy plays even more detailed than I imagined.
I could strum out a chord and it wouldn’t sustain as long as the notes this guy is plucking. Jesus christ dude, how can it sound that good? So resonant, and lasting for what seems to be a freaking eternity. Bravo.
He is too good and listening to him playing can make your come to peace with your soul. Truly talented his guitar playing skill are so extraordinary. Brother keep playing cause it's a gift God has blessed you with.
Amazing talent! His ability to seemlessly move from one tuning to another across his broad catalogue boggles my mind. I'd be curious to see a real time mapping of his brain as he plays, sunglasses likely required.
This was recommended to me, and on first glance I thought "Nice, I'm gonna learn it". Then I read the Name Kent Nishimura and it was clear that this would never happen. Beautiful beyond words, Kent.
I’m simply blown away by your talent. I don’t know how I just discovered you about 6 months ago. I have stopped listening to many other musicians after listening to your arrangements . You are truly a blessing to this world. ❤
Wowzers, had been introduced by youtube's algorithm to your wonderful masterclass playing last year when I had covid.. had been listening to you ever since that time in my hospital room to now in my dining area with a cup of morning coffee.. you sir, the Kentshin Nishihimura of guitar, never cease to amaze me and countless people all over the world with your playing. I am a 34 year old guitarist, and I want to be like you when I grow up huehue. More power and God bless you sir.
Ladies and gentlemen, burn your instruments🔥
😂😂
🤣
Facts!!! 😂😂
I've watched your version of these song.
No one does acoustic guitar cover arrangements like Kent Nishimura - he does all the parts with symphonic purity. Bravo Kent! You are a legend already, at your young age.
He is remarkable, such a talent, each pluck of the strings precise, and hits the mark, this young man should be touring
Absolutely a top world class guitar player. For this song the cover by Mike Dawes is also stunning (personally I prefer it, but it's just my taste)
I agree.
Absolutely legendary
He’s absolutely incredible and still so young.
This kid deserves more views.
I don’t think I will find a better cover than this one.
My goodness. The counterpoint in 0:53. So smooth you almost miss it.
This is the most incredible display of musicianship I’ve ever seen. This guys has to be one of the best acoustic guitar players in the world. Hands down.
Takes the #1 spot as my favourite fingerstyle cover of all time
You need to listen to more Nishimura
Ditto... Sunga Jung used to top my list but not anymore.
I agree, he plays beautifully simple
@@joshfoster8038 me too 😅
Josh Foster, me too. Now I find Sungha quite plain compared to Kent.
I could hear every single essentials of the original from his playing... Love how he respects the originals...
Impossible to get tired of hearing this song or Kent's playing for that matter. Masterful!
No-one nails it like this guy
Genius, and perfect with soul. The best!
Captured the very essence of this song. So beautiful.

💯
Incredible as always. Someone get this in front of John. He is great and gracious to his fans, I’m sure he’ll love this rendition.
He's keeping that mother f-ing bass groove while doin the melody, which I rarely hear from other covers. Definitely my favorite ❤️
Kent captures the essence of the song and you can feel it through your heart.
I've heard something about needing 10,00 hours to truly become a master in something.... Kent you are a master. I can't even estimate how many hours you have put into even one of your arrangements. Your skill, talent, hard work, and dedication is truly remarkable.
This was highly unexpected! But already from watching the first few seconds, it sounds perfect!!
I just can't get enough of Kent Nishimura's arrangements after discovering his channel 2 weeks ago. He's too good!
As someone with sleep issues, trust me when I say, his music helps me get a proper night's rest

Check out mike dawes' arrangement if you love this then I'm sure you'll love his arrangement too.
@@vci0us045 I do love Mike dawes' arrangement but Kent killed this one hands down the best there is not just with this song.
@@carluisss I'm being a bit biased but I personally love mike dawes arrangment more.
@@vci0us045 I agree, and it should be borne in mind that this video is double-tracked with a backing beat added.
@@vci0us045Dawes is great. It comes down to taste which you like better. To me Kent is my favorite acoustic player

Arrangements, phrasing, feel, and execution. Beautifully done, bravo 👏👏
Just like all your videos, I just shake my head and say, "wow." You are amazing.

What tuning is it in?
super impressive - elegant simplicity, no fancy trickery, just darn good guitar playing... blown away by this arrangement.
ギターとアレンジが変わって、より重厚でカッコよくなってますね〜✨
どの曲もそうなんですが、ケント君のギターは心地よくて、ずーっと聴いていたくなるんです💕☺️
Kent, the lengend kent...
Kent nishimura > GOAT 🐐
In my opinion kent is better of marcin, luca, alexandr, mike, etc.
you said it damn right bruh
Not sure about being better than Mike, but it is your opinion. He's definitely very good and in the top 10.

@@_Kapitantutan nice name, brad! LOL!
It's so better to hear with headphones especially the bass.
Dude you are an international treasure…it’s so damn good that it brings me to tears 😂
This is the the cleanest cover of this song I've heard, I love it 😍
This might be the fullest and most beautifully rich guitar sounds I’ve ever heard! Coupled with your amazing playing, this is just gorgeous beyond words.
I can hear every detail of the song!
Capturing the very essence from the live at Nokia theatre performance, this is a masterpiece in itself!
I couldn't even imagine arranging this song in this way. Mindblowing
Kept the arrangement full and thick, this is crazy!
Can't get enough of this song and these great versions
My day wont be complete without listening to Kent playing. You are the best Kent!
I reeeeaally want the tabs for this! Please upload! And let me spend the next 20 years trying to learn it to no avail!
This is unbelievable..it's like each of your fingers have a brain of its own! I love this arrangement!
Wow what a beautiful song. Have listened to it twenty times. Absolutely one of the best if not the best guitar players in the world.
Even better than the first time you released it. Thank you Kent.
最高じゃん、ケントさん。
the audio quality!😭❤
Been playing Kent Nishimura for my tomota plants this year. I have deviated in no way for the last 5 years with the exception of playing Kent's music and I'm happy to report they are more plentiful and delicious than ever!
The purity. Such an inspirational performance and arrangement!
He played differently. His virtuosity on guitar is amazing.
So. Much. Soul. in this performance. Kent your playing is incredible.
So much going on harmoniously at the same time! Such a beautiful piece! You are a musical master! Thank you for sharing your beautiful gift with this world. ❤
БОЖЕСТВЕННО!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love the way you play, I can feel your passion!!
I cried when my son was born when my father in-law died, I cried when my dog died and ffs his playing makes me cry tears if pure joy
You do realize this is NOT a love song, right? This is “our relationship is coming apart and ending” song, right?
After a short time of watching the technique, I felt compelled to close my eyes and soak in the tonal magnificence of this arrangement. Pure.
この曲いつやるんだろうなぁってずっと待ってました!最高です
Cant tell you how glad l am to be here. Your playing is magnificent. And greatly appreciated world wide. Even here in alabama.
Oh my god… it sounds like three guitars playing at the same time… this is legendary stuff
Please this is the cover I didn't know I needed 🥺🥺🥺
Just close your eyes and listen to this perfection
*Yesssss*
最高…♪😭♥️

This is my favorite Kent
The way he plays makes the guitar sing the song itself all together,. amazing kent!
Wow! Just wow!
Right now I see that no one makes arrangements like this other than Kent.
We love you Kent Nishimura
Epic!!
this is insane. the level of detail in your arrangements always blows me away. amazing work
I always get goosebumps listening to him.
kent deserve 1M subs, best guitarist
I love every single video. Thank you! I just wish I could have shared these with my dad. He'd have LOVED it all.
THIS IS SO FUCKING RELAXING! Kent always making his covers into next level, so freakin perfect
I ❤️ this. So glad you chose this song. Beautiful arrangement!!

Beautiful beyond words, Kent.
John would be very pleased, probably impressed! Neon, that would just be crazy.
Your playing and arrangements are unbelievable. I thank you for your existence !
John Mayer should see this...he'll be impressed... absolutely amazing...
He’s full of himself, he’s just think it wasn’t as good as his version and not say anything
My one and only idol kent nishimura!!
I’m simply blown away by your talent. I don’t know how I just discovered you about 6 months ago. I have stopped listening to many other musicians after listening to your arrangements . You are truly a blessing to this world. ❤

The best fingerstyle guitarist to be honest
PERFECT!!! BRAVO.
Absolutely brilliant
This is the best version I've ever seen on UA-cam.
This is insane!!! He played with perfect bass, lead, rhythm, and percussion.
The fact that someone is capable of arranging this makes me truely happy. Thank you, Kent!
I love this song. You played it so well
In before John shares this on his Insta/Tiktok!
TBH this is the best cover I've heard
WOW KENT . I LOVE THIS .HIS MÚSIC IS WONDERFULL. THANKS KENT NISIMURA.🏆🙏❤👏👏👏❤🥉👏🙋🏽♂️

Absolutely love this. Thanks for covering JM.
We are not worthy!! 🤘🤘 so beautifully perfect!
原曲へのリスペクトを持ちながら、自分の感性で飾り気なくストレートに表現するその姿勢が後半の三重奏に結実🤣😍ブラボーで素晴らしい!ケント🤩むしろ部屋を飛び出して、風のそよぎまで感じさせる悲しみが天空まで突き抜けるような感覚をおぼえてしまう!すごいですっちゃ😅
