Queensrÿche: I Don't Believe In Love/Waiting For 22 (Cover)

- Hey guys!
So, my latest endeavour is to cover the entire Operation Mindcrime, all guitar parts, the full shebang! Here's I Don't Believe In Love followed by Waiting For 22 - some beautiful guitar work on these tracks, I hope I've done it justice - slide isn't exactly my forte!
I recorded all the guitar parts over the original track using my Axe Fx 2 and Logic X. I put the video together using iMovie. All parts were figured out by ear, I do NOT have tab so don't ask!
I claim no ownership to the original material, this is a non profit series of videos for your enjoyment only. If you haven't already got this album, go and buy it NOW!
Please feel free to like, comment and SHARE! I've put a lot of work into this, so it'll be nice for it to be seen by as many as possible! \m/
Cheers!
Awesome playing. Operation Mindcrime is one of the best albums ever !!!
83Mike17 Thank you! I agree!
It may be THE best! I like other bands better but when it comes to a single Album this is my fave!!!!
I was a freshman In college and this album blew me way
No, it's not "one" of the best. Its THE best.
Waiting for 22 is so hauntingly beautiful
That whole album is filled with great guitar work. I still listen to Queensryche to this day. Great job man.
You're not wrong there! Thanks for watching dude \m/
Alex Ward I actually watch a lot. Ive seen you cover this album probably 10 - 15 times over. That was a hell of a duo of guitarists there. This work was masterfully written.
Alex Ward I have another album for you to work on next man. I promise if you haven't heard this one you will want to do it. If youre interested in knowing which album comment back.
+Neil Simon Thanks so much for checking it out so much! I might not be able to tackle another album soon, but I'm always happy to check out new stuff and listen to great music so hit me! \m/
Gretchen Goes To Nebraska-Kings X. What are you up to professionally right now? What bands have you played with?
Absolutely awesome! This my favorite QR song and you nailed it!
+TwinTurboRamAir Thank you!
Technically great. One of the best covers I've seen of this song.
This is my favourite so far (They're all bloody brilliant, of course), but the version of Waiting For 22 is spectacular! 🤘🏼🥇
Great job Alex. I love the production work as well. I thought I knew this tune inside out, as a huge fan and novice player. Your video opened up my eyes and ears to some subtle rhythmic and melodic activity blended into the superbly layered guitar work. Thanks
A true masterpiece album. Still hold up 32 yrs later. Your guitar tone and cover is spot on..brilliant!
Thank you so much! Yeah it's just the best collection of music!
@@powerslave88 These covers are SICK!!.. i'm a drummer but you inspired me to get OMC a try on my ESP ltd M1000 deluxe.
There are not enough likes to press.... Like the song wasn't chilling enough. Wow! I am really impressed! Kudos!
That Tele/JP duet just sounded amazing. I don't even know what are these 2 dislikes doing here^^ Another song I should definitely learn ;)
bibana06 Thank you!
Man, this is well done. Great job.
Thank you! I'm glad you like it :)
I’ve been playing this Cd constantly lately. Also Queen of the rhyche I never get sick of it. Great job Alex.
Kerri Braddock Haha play it loud! Thanks for checking my vids out dude!
Beautiful playing sir! An AWESOME album the the Ryche...
Great job man! The sounds of the guitars are the same of the album. My compliments! Everybody would appreciate public tabs.
DeGarmo would be amazed by this guy! Fantastic Alex!
Sir, watching you play this nearly flawlessly, is truly a blessing to my eyes and ears. This stuff was the soundtrack to my life, in my earlier years. This is goose bump inducing stuff, here. Thank you so much !!!!!!!!!!
Stunning performance, the pinch harmonics at 2:50 are the icing on the cake 🙌
Thank you so much! Those make the song I think!
Outstanding playing on the separate parts. Tones and phrasing are totally killer. Love your Ryche covers brother. 🤘🏻😃🎼
One competent guitarist. Great work man.
This is so cool to watch, Operation Mindblown was a success.
Dang!! Awesome playing.. best cover from mind crime ive seen so far
Just rocking performance man 🤘🤘🤘!!
Next - Another Rainy Night. Killer. I've been playing hair guitar since I was 15 in 1985. All of you young guys playing this old classic metal would have LOVED being an 80s teen. Everything was kickass then.
Spot on!!!! I wish you could replace the kid Queensryche has now. He is a sloppy mess. Excellent job!!! Always love to watch and hear a great guitarist.
Absolutely phenomenal!
Thank you!
Shit the bed. You had me within 10 secs. One of my favourite albums, never even thought to see if someone could do it justice on guitar....
That reply got me to the solo...Game over......
Thank you so much! So glad you enjoyed! 🤘
Nice!
Cheers Mark! Love all your output and gear vids, they're very much appreciated! Glad you liked my cover :)
God I love Queensryche! Great cover Alex.
I keep coming back to this video from time to time. Great playing and a great study. These last tracks of Operation Mindcrime are still utterly captivating after 30 years, and one of my best memories of the early 90's. This was Chris DeGarmo's crowning achievement. Thanks for the videos.
Darryl Webb Thank you so much Darryl! That really is so nice to read, and I completely agree with you! Thank you for watching, your support is greatly appreciated! 🤘🤘
Very beautiful album, very beautiful cover, thank you
Amazing. Excellent! Great camera work as well.
Aww yes the one I was waiting for! :)
+JackPecker911 It was inevitable!
+Alex Ward Indeed :)
Nailed the tele tone! I think the Majesty is a bit high tech for the humbucker part though but the playing is nearly flawless! Weakest was the slide though but we're nitpicking here!
Excellent! I saw them twice in NC, got to meet the whole band. Still have a pic of Geoff Tate & myself
I gotta hand it to ya, that is best cover ever👍 very nice work. I'm impressed beyond reason 👊
Wow thanks so much!
Very beautiful thanks you
Love these Mindcrime covers! You really nail the rhythm subtlties that, unless your really looking for them, one might otherwise miss. Great job man!!
njmetfan Thanks man! Yeah QR are full of subtleties that make me tick!
bad ass man. rock on...please
Couldn't be more perfect! Awesome!
Queensryche is awesome! You are awesome!
Great job!!!
Rob Magrath Thank you!
coming back to your vids to relearn some of the best music written! You're impeccable. thanks man!!!!
I know this album by heart, every note. you didn't miss a single note. Fantastic. Very smooth playing
That was AWESOME!!!
Sounds so good 🤘
Fantastic playing... thanks for going through my favourite Ryche album
+Martin Harrington Thanks so much Martin, it is absolutely my pleasure to play these phenomenal tunes \m/ - I'm glad you're enjoying it!
Did you see that Chris DeGarmo is playing on this daughters songs... he's keeping a low profile in the songs :(
+Martin Harrington Yep, I've got a copy myself, love it! Chris's style just ticks every box for me, no matter it acoustic, grunge, metal - his stamp is always there and its probably my biggest inspiration musically.
Fantastic
El mejor cover sin duda , y el solo fue lo máximo ,ufff!!! Saludos 👍.
Well done. So good
Very very nice man, mad props
Outstanding!
Brilliant!!!
I keep coming back to these videos, and just in awe everytime I , I also play guitar so
I'm trying to check out the differences, also have seen both Geoff tates operation mind crime band and queensryhce in the last 4 years with my son, probably 6 different times, and just
can not get enough
I just stumbled across this trying to learn waiting for 22. Simply magnificent! Wonderful job! You make it look easy but my fat fingers say otherwise! Lol- nice job.
Thank you so much! I'm no slide player so that's a huge compliment- good luck with learning it! You'll get it \m/
Hey Alex very nice work man! I´m gonna be playing with Geoff Tate in August/Brazil Great videos covering Operation Mind Crime \m/
Dallton Santos Wow very cool! Well, I'd appreciate a view from him that's for sure haha! Thanks for the compliments \m/
Haha He certainly would be proud of that! \m/
Your very good! Smooth chops and spot on...great work man!
this is the best album of all time. great job its helping me learn these songs

Nice one Steve, cheers!
excellent execution. well done!
+JCRS Thank you!
Hey Alex,
AMAZING!!
+Mark Love Nice one Mark!
+Alex Ward Hey Alex, I was wondering if you have any plans to to cover any other complete Queensryche albums? Love your work, Bro!!
+Mark Love I'm certainly toying with the idea. If it would be any, it would probably be Rage or Empire. But it probably won't be any time soon - stay tuned I guess! Haha!
+Alex Ward Hey Alex, Any album you do with Degarmo would be superb!! I really miss Chris in the band. He was the melody maker of Queensryche. Thanks, Bro!!
Fantastic cover mate!
Thanks so much!
So frickin' awesome!!! No words for how good you are!!!
Perfect!!
Perfect man..
well done!
Wow this is awesome \m/

Μichalis V Thanks! I think! Haha!

Exactly--- fuk them
DUDE....you are amazing! Are you still playing? OMG
drmax Thanks for watching and for the support! I certainly am
Wow.
Nice
Damn....you're good!!
Ben Phillips Thanks Ben!
Funny enough, I see you have 1988 subscribers at that moment. A great number, if you get what I refer to ^^
Any chance of getting the presets? Great job man 👍🏽
Damn your good bro🙏🏼
All ya videos.
Tone spot on. What are u playing through?
Hi Alex, This is some amazing stuff. Do you still think the Axe Fx is the the best way to go for recording and playing live to get the Queensryche tone? What is the maroon solidbody your playing?
5:23omg
pretty awesome Alex!!!! what country do you live in?
What did you use for the cleans? It sounds pretty much spot on
What amp and cab blocks did you use ?
Stephen Banville Thanks for watching man! Good question, it was def a Friedman HBE for the rhythm and lead, and it was a Marshall 4x12 from Cab Pack 20 by ML Soundlab, most likely captured with 57 - i'm not near my fractal at the mo so hard to be more specific! Hope that helps and thanks again \m/
Awesome Alex !! Thanks for the quick reply. The guitar tones were amazing!! The HBE is my goto...I'm going to look into cab pack 20.
Stephen Banville No probs! Yeah I haven't even scratched the surface with that cab pack - there are so many options of cabs and how their micd- it's certainly value for money! I stumbled across one I love and I use it for everything
In order see if playing I have hear no vocals
Awesome cover!
Outstanding!
Thank you!
Fantastic
Superb
