      Hi, thanks for the nice comment! :D I can play almost fluidly until the minute 3:28: that tapping part is soo hard, and it sounds really bad when I do it. All the tapping parts in generale sound like I'm smashin some metallic stuff together ... I don't know, doesn't feels as good as when you play it.
      Do you have any advice on how to perform the tapping parts of the song?
      Thank you!

    Ich höre mir diesen Cover immer wieder an, weil er besser als das Original ist! Ich hab mir die Noten direkt geholt:) aber bis ich das spielen kann werden noch viele intensive Übungsstunden vergehen. Ihre Lieder und Arrangements sind fantastisch und großartig! Das macht ihnen so schnell keiner nach!

    • @jayko2k

      Also besser als das Original weiß ich nicht. Es ist verdammt gut, auf jeden fall, und mit abstand das schwerste Bass Arrangement was ich je gesehen habe...
      Aber das Original ist meiner Meinung nach eins der besten Lieder überhaupt. Extrem ruhig, aber aggressiv, präzise und dazu eins der besten Girarrensoli überhaupt. Schwer das überaupt zu toppen.

    • @woodyh4650
      @woodyh4650 9 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      I argue with my 16 year old nephew about whether SOME (key word some) rap is music or not. I ask, "Ok, since it's music, what key is it in? Other than the percussion parts it can't be written on a staff. Real music can be written, it has a key, sharps, and flats etc. From Mozart to Metallica a G is a G, and a E is a E."

    • @TPR-wx1yj
      @TPR-wx1yj 9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      +Woody H rap is rhythmically based. And if you are looking for the key, most times you can find out what it is by hearing the background music

    • @woodyh4650
      @woodyh4650 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +TPR8473 True. The background music does sometimes have a key. Because they have "sampled" it from a real song. Again this isn't applicable to ALL rap.
