When the song was released I was in my early twenties and couldn't play the guitar. I loved this song and I imagined myself playing it on guitar. Now I'm over 50 and today that dream came true! On the second try I was able to play the whole song along. It feels like a little warm light during the darkness of the pandemic. Thank you, Mr. Big for the good Feelings!
@@chrisazz4642 He's very popular and famous in Japan Chris! Our friends from Sun Rise Land have a good taste for music! Paul played there in diferent tours, with Mr. Big, solo, with Racer X, and Guitar Wars! Cheers mate!!! 🎸👍
Not only note for note, but even breaks down the chords and what notes he chose for you to unpack. The major-third, minor-third, minor-third should spark any brain with a basic grasp of music theory into seeing how he chose the harmonising notes for a simple run up the scale.
*Learned the entirety of this solo alone back in 2020 thanks to this clip.* But I had to set it on 0.5x speed every single time I practice just for the heck of it.
I think in the actual song, he's supposed to slide into the third chord (the one that falls on "...one"), instead of picking it separately, like he does here. Kinda like the sliding version better ;)
really? 15 years BEFORE youtube existed🎉? it's really long time. i really like his character so calm and cool. but i think he can't be himself today, just because his pergaulan GAK BENER CENDERUNG NORAK KETULARAN teman teman global crazy😢🎉😮 i hope i can see him like he was, trully him not personality changing❤😊🎉
Im already a proffessional bro.. But not in guitar... I just love music.. I think you should be the one to go back to school.. To learn some values and manners... But peace bro....\m/
He’s so good. It’s not fair, he should be made to play with one arm tied behind his back, just to level the playing field. He really believes that his finger picking is basic. So modest!! I had to edit because, have a look how long his fingers are?
I’ve played this wrong for 20 years until I found this..but it sounded ok :)) Man you’re skills and humility, and the tip on character over perfection is brilliant, thanks!
It’s always been a dream of mine to learn this solo! I don’t play a lick of guitar but this is on my bucket list ! I still absolutely love this song ! Between the chorus and this solo a beautiful song was made🥰
Sadly, it is hard to find anyone who listens to this beautiful song, or any other Mr. Big songs, those kids today are weird, just listening to some stupid music which I can't even say that it is "music".
What guitar is that?I know a mic against the hole gives the best sound but that guitar has some kind of natural mellow echo..guitar brand and strings please?earthwoods?

Oh great.. keeping this classic
very humble guitar player...one of my favorite!
john wong
I wonder if he made any money during the glam era.
yes..true
@@daoyang6055 I don't think he did make that much. But one thing I know for sure he made shit lots of $ when he went to Japan 😂which he deserved
@@ericwang604 why specificly in japan? how long was he there?

really helpful, clear, without talking too much, easy to follow and understand
Weird how this video is not #1 for learning it. The guy who actually wrote it , teaching you note for note. 🤔🤔🤔
Not only note for note, but even breaks down the chords and what notes he chose for you to unpack. The major-third, minor-third, minor-third should spark any brain with a basic grasp of music theory into seeing how he chose the harmonising notes for a simple run up the scale.
Indeed right?😂
What a smashing bloke. No big star side to him. Thanks for posting.

Magic riff Paul. Thank U
Thanks for this awesome music 🖥🖥🖥🖥🖥🖨🖨🖨
Fantastic. .!!
May first learned solo, thnx mr.pg
Paul Gilbert is such a fuckin' dude. Awesome guitarist and a really great guy.
You ever want to hear drunken Paul Gilbert? Play with .25 speed and enjoy 😊
Nicely 🙂
wow the pentatonic scale
I think in the actual song, he's supposed to slide into the third chord (the one that falls on "...one"), instead of picking it separately, like he does here. Kinda like the sliding version better ;)
so fascinated how he played that stuff e'ytime his turn for the solo. really a music to d ear...90's sound...
I saved this video so I'm not gonna lose it. Right from the masta!!!
You had that long slender fingers😳
3:16cool!!
1:02
1:00
can someone please give me an easier tutorial omg :(
Neil Young always had a weird dress style
You're playing it wrong!! Go listen to the record and try again. Sheesh 🙄
This is how every guitar tutorial video should be filmed and edited. Paul Gilbert did it 15 years before TH-cam existed ;)
really? 15 years BEFORE youtube existed🎉?
it's really long time. i really like his character so calm and cool. but i think he can't be himself today, just because his pergaulan GAK BENER CENDERUNG NORAK KETULARAN teman teman global crazy😢🎉😮
i hope i can see him like he was, trully him not personality changing❤😊🎉

Learning the song from the creator. Awesome, thanks so much, Paul
'Fingerpicking is basic'
Imagine his advance level
Fingering pussy
Sepertinya mas komar sering nih?....hhhhhh
He's on type of God level
He’s a guitar God saying Finger picking is just basic..
I've been trying to play this song for 11 years. still can't play
The solo or everything?
I learnt this by ear in 1991 as a teenager on my old acoustic and i am surprised to see it is exactly how i heard it !
You got a great ear to play this solo without teacher. Awesome job
Then you realised you were just dreaming.
You are talented
@@ninogarciano7930 fkboiiiiiii haha
Liar
Paul Gilbert is a true rockstar.
Why is he floating on a pool with a dog in the end??? XD
there is like 3 dogs^^
because he can kerplunka409. because he can.
why not..
Cause he's Paul Gilbert
why not?
This riff has been an anthem which has been ingrained in the ears and minds of that particular generation and generations to come.
What a cool guy, and what a tremendous song that has stood the test of time
Paul Gilbert....The Man with "Golden Fingers"
And just like that my new acoustic guitar goes on the kindling pile
I love this solo, it's simple but there are so many different techniques used and the tone is so good.
Wow as a beginner I actually picked up quite a lot from this
My favorite part of this song is his gentle bridge after the intense acoustic HITS
i love this guy so much, inspirational
Thank you Sir Paul Gibert for this awesome guitar lesson.
I remember watching Paul Gilbert long before mr. Big along with Joe satriani two of the best guitar players from the 80s or anytime. For that matter
Saw him live last year... was amazing 💕
Nice lesson.One day he'll become a very succesful guitarist.
He's already a successfull one... A virtuso
@@jag1780 That's a high level sarcasm bro. You won't get it.
Sorry bro...im an odd one
@@jag1780 You're a kid. Go to school.
Im already a proffessional bro.. But not in guitar... I just love music.. I think you should be the one to go back to school.. To learn some values and manners... But peace bro....\m/
I'm not good at playing guitar.
But he is giving me motivation.
which is what we beginners really need when learning
I wish i had Paul Gilbert as a my guitar teacher
So sweet to hear that sweetness can't express it.
Love this brother! As for as the pentatonic lick goes, glad I’m a blues player and my new babe just thinks I’m amazing! 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Nevermind how it’s played. How do you get your guitar tone to sound like that?
Money
It's probably a really nice guitar, yeah. But throwing on some brand new strings might get you close too!
They're kind of right, but also mic position, compression, eq, and reverb.
Pretty basic eh Paul... 🤣
Such a great guy
How many times I'd tried to play this solo at that time.... Thanks for the lesson
This is the only lesson of this song
1000000% accurate
How can you dislike this... okay, you don't like the song... so... what are you doing watching a "tutorial" of it?
The best solo ever
Vinh Lam Woah....lol.
Lol
Best acoustic solo ever
damn I love this guy what a talent !
He’s so good. It’s not fair, he should be made to play with one arm tied behind his back, just to level the playing field. He really believes that his finger picking is basic. So modest!! I had to edit because, have a look how long his fingers are?
wenn man als anfaenger das versucht nachzuspiilen hat man kein bokk mehr jemals wiider musik zu machen. bin trotzdem riisen fan 😍
Yes he's down to earth! All the best to u Paul! Cheers...
日本人のこういうガイドかありましたけど結局自分自身のクソとエゴでした。
私は英語なんかわからないです
でも外国人のスピリッツが優しいかったです
4:09 when you're one of the best guitarists in your era
Unbelievably tasteful solo.
Pertnear reckons i could have a go at that ..pilgrim ..thanks ..😎😁pip pips
When Paul Gilbert says his picking is basic, then what is mine 😢😢😢😢😂😂😂😂
Sounds very hard but he made it very simple. This man is a legend. Thank you sir!
My fave guitarist. Humble n genius 👏🏻❤️
its a great solo. just spent a few days learning it in 2023, all these years on
I’ve played this wrong for 20 years until I found this..but it sounded ok :)) Man you’re skills and humility, and the tip on character over perfection is brilliant, thanks!
Hey Paul. To Be With You has always been one of my faves since it came out in 91. Thanks for this! 👍❤
Nice tutorial bro..keep up, u have a bright future 🙏💪💪🫡
like Micheal Angelo like leonardo, This man is super human
He didn't show right hand work and it's crucial here... :(
It even could be played on a single guitar with a few extra bass notes.
Alright it's Paul Gilbert!!!
It’s always been a dream of mine to learn this solo! I don’t play a lick of guitar but this is on my bucket list ! I still absolutely love this song ! Between the chorus and this solo a beautiful song was made🥰
I have no idea what ANY of this means.
Look at those fingers fucking hell they are not short in any way
Im just selling all my gear.
And buying his huh?
Oh jeez his long fingers really helpful to play this instrument easily
We talking bout' guitars right?
Look at the length of his pinky. LOOK AT IT! He could wrap it around my thigh!
He's married
@@ksekhose8933 Made me chuckle!
I love this solo, but that guy plays it wrong!
This guy is the definition of a cool cat.
can anyone name model of his acoustic Ibanez?
一番好きなギタリスト！
I'm Japanese.
I got to learn this
Paul Gilbert....The Man with "Golden Fingers"
One of my all time favourites and at the time i didnt know who put together the solo but i knew that the person wasn't an average guitar player
I want hole song lesson.
Sadly, it is hard to find anyone who listens to this beautiful song, or any other Mr. Big songs, those kids today are weird, just listening to some stupid music which I can't even say that it is "music".
His guitar playing makes u love to play guitar all day long
Cool, that is one of my favorite guitaris and song from mr.big
01:01 here goes
One of the best guitarists
What guitar is that?I know a mic against the hole gives the best sound but that guitar has some kind of natural mellow echo..guitar brand and strings please?earthwoods?
I got to learn this
144 dislike can’t play the song perfectly ;-)
One of my favourite songs/ solos to play. I always come back to it after a few beers.
Melodic solo like Vito Bratta
Thanks. Richard 👍
What I really wNna know is, how come he is so smart create a solo accoustic melody in this song sounds really cool..
