    Hi all!
    So it's been a good while since I've done a pop tune and this guy has been stuck in my head ever since I saw a bunch of requests for it on some older videos, so I figured I'd give it a shot. I love working with acapellas because it kind of knocks on the idea of "what if there was a metal band backing the vocalist instead" sorta thing. Thanks for everything! It means the world. You ALWAYS rock my casbah!
    Best to ya

    I just love how happy he looks when he plays. he doesn't seem cocky or anything, just happy to be fuckin' shredding. Keep on keepin' on, Eric.

    Here you see a hardcore metal guy headbanging on a metal cover he made for a pop song. And you'll still have people arguing which kind of music is the best. The one that makes you happy is. Cheers Erick, YOU rock.

  • @eugenejoh9204
    @eugenejoh9204 5 років тому +2

    I don't think people understand how difficult that transition into the first hook from 0:38 - 0:43 really is. You need to build a progression, hit the high note, sustain it, then transition back into the rhythm guitar chords without missing a single beat or holding the high note longer than the singer does. This is more than a cover where someone just assigns chords to a song's melody it's an actual re-imagining of the song with customized transitions for each part. This guy's musicality is off the charts.

    Chandelier is one of the most emotional songs I've heard in years... Combine it with the video, backstory, and a bit of my own experience, and it's a hauntingly powerful and beautiful song. Your version kicked ass and it's why I absolutely love your music. If I could like it 100 times I would.
