Thou hast...the STAR POWER!!! Edit: Dude I noticed this. In some of the solos you were a bit behind so we could hear both the backing track and you at the same time but it was slightly off, and it was trippy. But, the amount that it was off never wavered or changed at all. That means you played it perfectly in time. Great job man.
I'm not going to lie... that was amazing! Most players that go for covers of this song have trouble figuring out all the funny sounding parts or the sliding and tapping, so improvise or emulate to the best of their ability. You, my friend from Thailand, have figured everything out and played the most ACCURATE cover of this song I've ever seen.
Most of dragonforce's songs were written by sam, including this one and many other songs like mswgo, fury ots, valley oftd, heroes oot, etc but i still prefer herman lol
I'm pretty sure I commented on this post like 9 or so years ago when I was a teen, but was going through my liked posts and came across this again. This is still probably one of the BEST technical covers on youtube. Hope you're still playing man!
+iRrawrrr im pretty sure herman can play it clean when he sits down. theres a big difference between playing sitting down in a bedroom and playing live standing up while fooling around to pump the crowd. Thats why guitarists in a band are always encouraged to practice a song standing up. if you practice a song this hard sitting down and play live standing you'll sound very bad.
This might be the best fire and flames cover I have ever seen on the internet. The solo part sounds even cleaner than the original LIVE performance. Kudos to you my friend :D
6:33 saw the expression in your face! . I do that too. getting done that solo in guitar hero and real guitar is like getting done the hardest level in a game you ever did in your life and finally beat it. love that feeling.
The best part about this cover is seeing you having such a good time playing that song. That's what it's about, man! Amazing skills! Keep doing what you're doing. :)
She wasn't. That's just an ignorant thing of you to say that. The video was clipped, but the video wasn't sped up at all. It just looked a bit out of sync. Besides, she didn't even touch the camera, it was her amazing teacher.
I can feel your passion, your style, your energy when you played this song. I think is one of the best covers of Through the flames and fires on UA-cam. Congratulacions! You are the beast, bro!!!!!
Most accurate cover so far!! What kind of sorcery is that? To be 100% it could be used some octave pedal in some notes of the solos, just that. Great video, it's great to see good stuff on UA-cam! Congratulations
I find it awesome that every once in a while he looks up at the camera with that grin. Its not even a "I'm badass huh?" look, but more of a humble and appreciative "that was badass huh?" look. Excellent work!
George Riley ROFL i wasn't disagreeing with you since its your opinion and i'm not sure cuz i have to check again but yeeea xD (possessed as shit had me kinda dying knowing how she leaned forward a few times)
How can he not have more likes? That was soooooo great! He is really awesome gosh! I play the electric guitar but can never manage to learn all this song. Loved the cover!
they are assholes, or at least the old singer was, and they canceled alot of shows they promised to play since they were to drunk. they have been booed off stage several times as well as they were way to drunk. there is only one guy who can play like a god when he is drunk, and that's Dave Mustaine of Megadeth lol
You are really awesome bro, keep rockin! :D Such a shame that the Tina S cover (which is horrible.....) has 13 million views and you have "only" one million... I think your cover is the best on youtube! :D
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAT????? I'm not racist mate. If you didn't get the joke. Come on. Be a little more... Open Minded... And you will probably understand.
O C'mon, dont talk about openminded mind.Your tiny little heart beats with jealousy because of your foolish attitude of being a white...shame on U. if u are openminded you will see equally regardless of Asians, Europeans, Westerns. STUPID U...
Holy Shit, mate. First of all, i'm not racist, and also, i'm not an idiot. I'm not trying to troll anyone here, and i bet you aren't too. I'm not saying something like "WHITE GUYS ARE BETTER". i'm just trying to say that i Admire the Asiatics because usual countries at Asia are hardened for the younger people. They study a lot more and do things a lot more often than here in America, or Europe, or Africa. And also, everyone knows that Asiatics rocks at almost everything they are dedicated to.
Why don't people Just stop complaining about guitar hero and enjoy the vid? I mean, I play the real guitar as well but I can't play guitar hero for shit on expert..they both require different ways of playing: 1 is a controller with constantly changing notes on only 5 buttons, and the other keeps all notes the same way but Has more "buttons", which you can memorize. There is no "easier" or "harder" in this case, it's Just what way of playing you're used too. (slash can't play guitar hero, but we all know what slash can do) So stop complaining and actually compliment this guy for what he's doing here :) Good job, keep playing like that and become a legend!
You are amazing man!!! You play so flawlessly and you play like you are having so much fun. And this is one of the hardest songs to play in guitar. Wish u had more likes and views.
BlackSkiesProductions Agreed. I can play this easy but good God, the stamina needed to play this at 200 BPM for 8 minutes. The guitar work is absolutely incredible though. If you want insane drums for speed, check out Shadow of Intent. If you want drums for technicality, I recommend Periphery.
Scalpel the thing is lee is playing mostly on concerts so pressure plays a huge role on his performance. If u notice lee plays the guitar while doing all sorts of tricks like throwing the guitar up in the air (there's a term for it which i forget), licking the guitar..yeah for real he did that, etc. Btw nong is definitely a good guitarist no doubt bout that but i think lee is better bcuz he's more energetic and entertaining.
The only way to beat another Asian is with another Asian
+Hashed Prod. Asianception
I'm Mexican, I will try to beat both Asians
hahaha.. epic comment..
+Alexander Ramone You will fail.
+LovableWierdo howd you know? I gave up last month, I'll try again someday. lol
I just love how many times this guy would flawlessly pull off some bad ass shit and then just look up at the camera like "yeah bitch, i just did that"
Colin Kwasnik this whole song is badass what are you talking about it being parts ? Lol 😂
2:03 that smile, he knows he's killin it
I love his smiles after every fast melody :D thumbs up man.
He knows he's that good :)
Yea it certainly shows that he enjoys his playing, much better than people who have the same look the entire time.
Damien Sullivan yeah super sic
same
Oh now I get it, Herman Li cut his hair, right?
haha lol
Nong Li \m/
lmao
ahahahahhahahha THIS has me in stitches!
Burak Okuroğlu that's what I said
Well, if Dragonforce ever needs a replacement...
Tzeentch Of course nong can play it. But can he create it ?
Adam Abdelfattah Too much Asian
SSJ Broly Well herman can create it but he cant play it lol...
I thought that too but it’s one thing to play dragonforce songs, and another to create dragonforce songs.
Or a third guitarist
My beer can do this! Hold me!
hahah xD
Wtf Hahaha xD
brilliant!:'D
you made my night XD
GravelsNotAFood your comment (and your username) literally just made my day.
Where so many have tried and failed, thou hast acquired success!!! Thou art Nong from Thailand! Thou hast the power!
ZerO pure class 👌
Chris Tenders legend of nong: guitar of time
Thou hast...the STAR POWER!!!
Edit: Dude I noticed this. In some of the solos you were a bit behind so we could hear both the backing track and you at the same time but it was slightly off, and it was trippy. But, the amount that it was off never wavered or changed at all. That means you played it perfectly in time. Great job man.
I tell you.. I'm really fucking impressed... I've never seen someone play it as well as you man, good work!!
Nathan Johnstone
They called her Tina S
Tina S sucks lmao, doesnt even play the song properly, also it's in different takes so yeah.
Answering Doubt he said he's not seen anybody else play it as well, not can somebody name another person to have covered this song to a lesser degree
ITS FAKE. HE NEVER PRESSED THE ORANGE BUTTON
LMAO
Haha
+Dank Memes Holy fuck, man I've been down upon myself for weeks; I can honestly say that your comment has made my fucking day lol.
Hey man. Your welcome. its what im here for
I appreciate that for real. Honest to everything I just wish for one night of sleep, you know?
I'm not going to lie... that was amazing! Most players that go for covers of this song have trouble figuring out all the funny sounding parts or the sliding and tapping, so improvise or emulate to the best of their ability.
You, my friend from Thailand, have figured everything out and played the most ACCURATE cover of this song I've ever seen.
Ikr? So many people do covers and lose the authenticity of songs but this is so damn accurate im awe struck.
Ralph Galvez is because its the guitar dragonforce uses
IKR this is so accurate especially at the beginning part where he whammys a harmonics before the verse and you see no one else doing that
its one take and thats the magic too.
dude wtf....why aren't there flames...that has to be higher than a 30 note streak
Lol
I think it’s 26 but I’m probably wrong
Didn't he fc?
The smile at 2:03 "I'm a fucking legend"
"Herman Li difficulty level, who could ever compete with his epic riffs?"
Send in the one they call Nog, he's our only hope.
Nong*
Most of dragonforce's songs were written by sam, including this one and many other songs like mswgo, fury ots, valley oftd, heroes oot, etc but i still prefer herman lol
I think the only reason this comment got so many likes is because you spelled "Nog" instead of Nong.
I'm pretty sure I commented on this post like 9 or so years ago when I was a teen, but was going through my liked posts and came across this again. This is still probably one of the BEST technical covers on youtube. Hope you're still playing man!
Saying "That was awesome" is an understatement
You sir have earned a subscriber really nice keep doing your thing
Fucking agreed
Geez I agreed
พี่คือ ความภาคภูมิใจของคนไทย!!!! ชอบมากครับ
:)
+Nong Solo What tuning?
+iRrawrrr im pretty sure herman can play it clean when he sits down. theres a big difference between playing sitting down in a bedroom and playing live standing up while fooling around to pump the crowd. Thats why guitarists in a band are always encouraged to practice a song standing up. if you practice a song this hard sitting down and play live standing you'll sound very bad.
+Rerisez Nomerzy Hi What?
Dude he just turn those guitar solos into Nong Solos
Ba-dum tss...
get out of hereeee
doing all the parts of multiple guitarists... talent at it's finest.
This might be the best fire and flames cover I have ever seen on the internet. The solo part sounds even cleaner than the original LIVE performance. Kudos to you my friend :D
6:33 saw the expression in your face! . I do that too. getting done that solo in guitar hero and real guitar is like getting done the hardest level in a game you ever did in your life and finally beat it. love that feeling.

Added you to my "list of idols" :D
;)
That's awesome~
Saizo me too :D
The best cover I've seen and I've seen a few
This dude genuinely looked like he was having fun. 👍🏽
Junior 5277 ya unlike Tina who just played the song this guy looked like he was having a blast
Still the best cover of this song so far. You are really talented.
DUDE! I can't even play the start of the song, and you are shredding harder than herman li!
wow. this is the most accurate Guitar cover of this song iv ever seen.
+Quina Cridone She's sloppy with her F chord.
She was 15.
+Quina Cridone
Nope, mind is still steadfast.
she was cheating aswell
She wasn't. That's just an ignorant thing of you to say that. The video was clipped, but the video wasn't sped up at all. It just looked a bit out of sync. Besides, she didn't even touch the camera, it was her amazing teacher.
of course it's by nong, you don't see people named jim smith playing like this
lol
+Rafy Martinez (Eatinpancakes) Sam Totman
+SkillerSteve028 It's a real shame that he's mostly overlooked. Sure, Herman is great, but Sam has some of the best parts in the solo.
Steve Vai.
+No Body (Eatinpancakes) thats the funniest thing I've ever heard
You're absolutely amazing man. Those facial expressions are funny, looks like no challenge to you. You're an inspiration.
To have the ability, skill, patience, and time to learn and play all those notes is truly incredible.
Joel Brown these Asians man.
Just say to be perfect aka asain
but can you play smoke on the water
Jesus haha
why not, he play trough the fire and flames
Rattling bee I think you missed the joke
Are you my dad? You are equally original. Take that as a compliment if you wish.
Was this a The Doo reference
I can feel your passion, your style, your energy when you played this song. I think is one of the best covers of Through the flames and fires on UA-cam. Congratulacions! You are the beast, bro!!!!!
Most accurate cover so far!! What kind of sorcery is that? To be 100% it could be used some octave pedal in some notes of the solos, just that.
Great video, it's great to see good stuff on UA-cam! Congratulations
Two words: Wow.
Good work, buddy!
That's one word!
hahahaha!
+Blitz Gaming no shit Sherlock
SAVAGE
Jim Quantrell thats totally 2 words
I find it awesome that every once in a while he looks up at the camera with that grin. Its not even a "I'm badass huh?" look, but more of a humble and appreciative "that was badass huh?" look. Excellent work!
5:53-6:03 is so satisfying to listen to for some reason
But can he FC on expert!?!?
Caaethil probably not which is pretty ironic
Lions isn't the chart on guitar hero both guitars and the synth?
Larry Stotlemyer i believe so
lol
Larry Stotlemyer the synth parts are easier than the guitar ones lol
He does it so fluid and effortlessly, making it look easy. Very, very, very well done my friend.
Obviously, it has to be an Asian
+Fabian Schleiden tina.s (15) rocks the guitar like a boss shes french and did a much better cover
+Natsu Dragneel it was edited and sped up
George Riley if u think so
Natsu Dragneel oh come on you can tell just watch how fast her body is moving she is either sped up or possessed as shit
George Riley ROFL i wasn't disagreeing with you since its your opinion and i'm not sure cuz i have to check again but yeeea xD (possessed as shit had me kinda dying knowing how she leaned forward a few times)
How can he not have more likes? That was soooooo great! He is really awesome gosh! I play the electric guitar but can never manage to learn all this song. Loved the cover!
Awesome :D
Maybe because you're more of a rhythm guitarist?
Milan Jamer Or maybe cause she's a gurl. LOL that was racist.
halohunter63 I'm a guy and I'm a rhythm guitarist.
+halohunter63 you mean sexist?
Almost 2019 and no one is able to beat this cover

Dude why are asians always so good at everything
except driving
+Redd yup, us Asians can do everything! Except drive without getting lost or crashing every 5 minutes
bringoutthelegos thank you for joining the banter and not being a dick
+Redd lol its kinda true, but everyone in my country uses motorcycles (sorry my english is bad)
Ryan Tran nah your english is fine, also what country?
I never thought this could be covered on guitar with this amount of skill, this was amazing man.
His smile just like that he said "i did it Li" xD
U rock bro!Im a bassist and not that much into metal but this is AWESOME!🎸
Well done man! That smile on your face when you finished the solo, you deserved it!
This cover was so god damn amazing that I honestly thought it was fake, and wouldn't be surprised if someone told me it was.
As a guitarist, I think this isn't fake. You can hear some tone difference between the backtrack and the guitar sound.( sorry if there's any mistake)
Pedreiro Elegante Yeah, I noticed that a little bit. No mistakes by the way
you should make your guitar louder
You're*
well that wasn't very nice
+Owen Jackson You're* an idiot
+TimmonRF you know..that was a good save but...no one likes people who correct other people
MattStormage agree
No overplaying, no 500 cuts, just sitting there ripping through TTFAF flawlessly in a single take. This is the definitive guitar cover.
Better playing than the boys from the band live, great work chinito.
great work chinito jaja
Joer con los chinos lo hacen todo bien XD
ajajaja chinito tenia que ser
could anyone explain to me all this hate for the band? ive seen alot of their videos with really hatefull comments towards the band and, why is that?
they are assholes, or at least the old singer was, and they canceled alot of shows they promised to play since they were to drunk. they have been booed off stage several times as well as they were way to drunk. there is only one guy who can play like a god when he is drunk, and that's Dave Mustaine of Megadeth lol
Herman just cut his hair
Best cover I've seen. Absolutely amazing man, nice job! I've no idea how this video has any thumbs down! Sick!
*INTENSE HEADBANGING*
5:23 literally spent the whole song thinking if he would do it XDD
I thought there was no one else that can do this solo...and there you are.RESPECT BRO,YOU ROCK!
He looks so happy when playing. Could't help but smile (:
Holy shit o.o
Best cover on UA-cam so far
I love how happy he looks throughout the video, you can tell he worked on this alot
But ¿Can you play Smoke on the Water?
+Ricky Hdz Mancha hahahahahahahahaha
+Ricky Hdz Mancha wtf?
+Ricky Hdz Mancha Same gag as Officail MV haha
+N7Cross I don't know what is Official MV but i think i saw that joke on 9gag
Lol
YOU
GOD
to this day still the Cleanest and Most Faithful Guitar cover of the song on UA-cam.
congratulations man, nice work!!!!!! the best cover on this music
I love how you look happy when you're playing. Awesome :)
Easily the best cover in UA-cam. It deserves millions more view
Man, Cover very good, just like I enjoyed! (Sorry for English, I do not speak the language, I'm using Google Translator).
:)
Pq toda merda de brasileiro sempre tem que deixar claro que não sabe falar inglês e dizer que está usando google tradutor?
Doctorstein yes I do
When i make that comment, i didn't know how to write in english.
_pedrohom at this moment you also can not speak english :D *made
You are really awesome bro, keep rockin! :D Such a shame that the Tina S cover (which is horrible.....) has 13 million views and you have "only" one million... I think your cover is the best on youtube! :D
Porterfishlens hahahhaha
lmao imagine bashing a 15 year old(in the cover vid) guitarist that is probably a million times better than what you are best at
Esse cara deve ser uma das pessoas mais felizes e satisfeitas do mundo, tocar Through the Fire and Flames com perfeição? fala serio.
Shit, he plays this so much better than Herman Li.
Compared to herman li, I can not.
Nong Solo Not true, he can't play live. At least this song he can't.
Yes he can. Look up the more recent Concerts
+Nong Solo I just started playing guitar, how long do you think before I can shred like this LOL for real though
lol, i've been playing guitar for about a year and a half and i still can't do anything near this XD
Better cover than Tina S imo.
BRIAN REARTES Tina still killed it though
Blasphemous...
Didn't realize Tina was at a contest.
True, because its one take too
Tina S is sped up
This is incredible. I haven't seen anyone nail this anywhere close to what you did.
Ridiculously good
This needs millions more views
I like this guy.
Everytime he did what seems to be the hardest past, he smiled as if saying "Too easy."
FUCKING ASIATICS!! THEY ALWAYS HAVE TO HUMILIATE US LIKE THAT?!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAT?????
I'm not racist mate. If you didn't get the joke. Come on. Be a little more... Open Minded... And you will probably understand.
O C'mon, dont talk about openminded mind.Your tiny little heart beats with jealousy because of your foolish attitude of being a white...shame on U. if u are openminded you will see equally regardless of Asians, Europeans, Westerns. STUPID U...

So stop complaining and actually compliment this guy for what he's doing here :)
Good job, keep playing like that and become a legend!
You are amazing man!!! You play so flawlessly and you play like you are having so much fun. And this is one of the hardest songs to play in guitar. Wish u had more likes and views.
Please train me in the ways of the shredding
Two words:

eh no...
Lol agreed
agreed, I can imagine that hahahahaha
lol hahah
love it when he smiles to the camera after nailing something hard , nice work bro
I don’t know what’s harder to execute in this song....
Guitar or drums...
Oakley Slate As a drummer, I think this is decently difficult. Not insane, but definitely not easy.
BlackSkiesProductions Agreed. I can play this easy but good God, the stamina needed to play this at 200 BPM for 8 minutes. The guitar work is absolutely incredible though. If you want insane drums for speed, check out Shadow of Intent. If you want drums for technicality, I recommend Periphery.
Gage Henning alr cool thanks!
Oakley Slate and for a complete Wtf try fleshgod apocalypse
Cedric Rucker I did... that’s a fast song! But it’s very strange
PLAYSTATION! PLAYSTATION! BR's will understand.
Also, good execution! :)
This time it was not , you won a game of life! kkkkkk
Fr4nk7h3D4rk5old13r kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk This coment had a HUE BR level over 8000.
Andrews Viana Game of life is still good for you, you won a quebra cabeça
Josemassari kkkkkkkkkkkk
kkkkkkkkkkkkk parece msm ele!
My favorite thing about this is that it looks like he's having fun. Excellent playing ofc.
Thats pretty impressive, but can he juggle water?
EvilEquilibrium lol
EvilEquilibrium if Jesus can walk on water
can he swim on land?
Mike Hawk you can do things all through Jesus Christ
EvilEquilibrium can u bounce pass a glass of water
Easily, in water bottles😂😂
His face when he knows he nailed the solo! Good job!
Holy fucking shit!!! This sounds just like the studio version! The best cover of this song I have seen so far. Keep rocking dude. :)
million times better than Tina s
I agree but she is still very young but it was still really good for a 15 year old. I'm pretty sure she can play it a lot better now.
Actually Tins S vid is montage.
plus he's asian..... so that's already an advantage
Also this doesn't look sped up like the tina s video
+Tiki Miner hahaha lol
อย่างเทพเลยคับ
😄🎸🎸
The best cover of this sound on UA-cam without "angels", no fake perfect✊🏻
DAMN!
Li himself didn't play it that clean...like ever :D
Actually what you are hearing is the original song. Except for the easy parts.
+DerpPlays lets see you play it then. Always that one douche like you
You know I was joking right.
I was playing fun of the people that do stuff like that.
Scalpel the thing is lee is playing mostly on concerts so pressure plays a huge role on his performance. If u notice lee plays the guitar while doing all sorts of tricks like throwing the guitar up in the air (there's a term for it which i forget), licking the guitar..yeah for real he did that, etc. Btw nong is definitely a good guitarist no doubt bout that but i think lee is better bcuz he's more energetic and entertaining.
Sovereign Policy “stage presence” is the word you’re looking for.
When you play this song you look like an awesome anime character...
Proof positive it is not impossible to play this song as previously thought..Absolutely Awesome job!
What is the song in the intro man?
my spirit will go on
Darude - Sandstorm
Dragonforce my spirit will go one this song its very nice
Darude-Sandstorm
That"s epic dude. That you still remember that song! :> XD
Sell your soul to the devil or something?
Goofy Goof HAHA
+Goofy Goof actually the devil oferred his own soul to him to learn how to play fast like him but he didn't accept. :D
+Luke Elmendorf Idk man there are a lot of techniques used in this song and the tempo is obviously the biggest challenge
+Luke Elmendorf yea
No escaping from hell basically.
Dude,this just sound frickin awesome,don't stop practising,never stop rock on
best cover i found, nice job nong
1:07 he knows he is killin it hahaha
I think I'm probably about half the views on this video. This is pretty much the best cover of any song ever..
