Dooder that was frickin awesome! What a great tune for the Stick.....played with great feel too Boaz.....prolly my fave Isaak tune. Loved the tremolo...

Managed quite well I would say! I like your style on this one, 2 hand DE-pendence as opposed to IN-dependence, very innovative work. Your use of fx is well done also. I like the soft vibe given off by the tune.
This is a keeper!

Awesome! I love this song; well done! You play the melody side two-handed like I do (other way around--I'm playing somewhat like you, since you've been doing it longer!)--I was feeling a bit self-conscious about it, and watching you play, I had an epiphany! I just need a looper, and do the bass line and then I can play the melody over it! (Sorry, just thinking aloud--let's talk about you!)

You make this look really easy, yet a nice full sound. Like Jayessker said, this looks very stealable!

Very good choice for a song--I bet this would be well-received by almost any audience, from rock to jazz to maybe-country. Thanks for sharing!

Great effort Boaz. I like how you split up the melody to play with both hands. I guess down the road we all know you will be able to do it with one hand when you want to. I also liked that you kept what represents the vocal melody in the original register for the most part. That will be a challenge later on if you attempt to accompany the melody with the bass. Also, good sense of time. I get the feeling that even if the drums weren't there, your playing would still be rock solid.


If no one else says it, I think you could pull that bent note just a fraction higher and it would sound just as I remember C. Isaac singing it. But that would be mere icing on the wicked cake.

Mike

Very impressive! 8-)
I'd certainly like to learn how to play this tune.

Thank you all for your kind words
I'm not really into pop music but the stick pulled me into that :)
This one is an exception for me-always liked this song.

Kevin, if you asked about this tremolo about half way through
It is actually Boss rt-20 rotating speaker (Leslie) simulator
