    Added an easter egg to a specific live version of this song, 10 points to whoever links it!
    This was an absolute monster of a song, I mean read the description, you can tell I was losing my mind a bit haha - also brought back my intro, do you guys dig it or?...
    As usual thanks for the support and I hope you enjoy! Big love x

      Awesome cover as always! And your version could be from a few different gigs I've seen but I just saw this for the first time yesterday. Absolutely awesome concert. th-cam.com/video/g3K1l8Hebfk/w-d-xo.html

      The easter egg is the "Spiders and Vinegaroons" riff that Josh played at Rock Werchter 2011: th-cam.com/video/P1McaXu5ZeQ/w-d-xo.html

      hey great job. got a question tho, that clip in the beginning was from a big trippy video that the go with the flow music video is from, there was more to it and im trying to find the original video. that clip in the beginning was more from that original go with the flow vision, please tell me if you know. if you didn’t, nice find look into that and try and find it you’ll see the actual artist from the era vulgaris album art, i even know who it is. if you’re interested in hearing about it, even if you’re just finding out and wanna know more ill tell

      @@Tedolightbulbhaha that clip was made by my flat mate at the time, he did it on blender for me as a test but also as an opener for my channel, loved it so have used it most of the time (when I remember to put it in 😂) - it’s just a recreation, it’s not from anything of that era, it was made in 2020/2021!

    This was the apex of their creativity. Weird is that i took more than a year listening to Era Vulgaris (know it's not from that album, but close enough "era") to start to like it and enjoy it as my favourite album of theirs. This is their opera.

      I have two versions of Era Vulgaris. One has Running Joke and Era Vulgaris as tracks 12 & 13 the other version just has Fun Machine as track 12. It was years before I found this out lol.

      Originally it was recorded for Lullabies but was misplaced for years. That's why it ended up as a b side for Era Vulgaris.

    I learned this song about 15 years ago and never bothered to relearn it. I remember the tuning being weird. It is an absolute beast. Great job.

    • @dgguitars4091
      @dgguitars4091  ปีที่แล้ว +4

      A string is tuned to down to G, same as Wolf, muting the E string the whole song is hard, I'm thinking they must tune it to a G as well to add extra power but didn't think to try it till just now lol
      ayy thanks man, I love it when they do it live, so cool

    Fuck i love this song! It's so discordant and so melodic at the same time. I really think this is one of the best queens songs of all time. I have to ask have you tried any TVC stuff? Feel like a cover of Spinning in the daffs would be a fun one to play. I listen to this cover more than the original because the guitar is accentuated. Just great.

    Well done 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
    This is a song that I never listened live because back when I was 16, I went to one of their shows, and, I've heard from a friend of mine that this was Josh Homme's favourite song (not sure if still is tho), but because of that, I was trying to listen live for the first time whenever I go to another show of them... although, I am considering now listening live on TH-cam anyway, since it wasn't actually a promise, and Damn, it must sound Awesome (⁠☆⁠▽⁠☆⁠)

    Are the two guitars shown in this video the only guitar lines in this mix? They sound pretty full, which is surprising if those are the only audio tracks (on top of the actual song) because most rock songs have multiple guitar tracks layered to make a bigger sound
