You dont see many Famous guitarists playing a meme of their song and actually enjoying it, this is why I love dragonforce so much, they can take a joke and make amazing music at the same time, the perfect combo. Keep it up guys, love from me to the whole band
@@oldmatevb yeah right good answer lol, if you're talking about random youtubers there are a bunch. But I'm talking about real bands, you don't see many bands this closer to their admirers, not like Dragonforce...
Herman: What was your favourite part of this? Me: you getting distracted by the woman in the middle of the solo and completely losing where you were when it came back
It’s things like this that make me love Dragonforce and Herman Li even more. Instead of getting upset or mad at people memeing their music, they go with it, laugh with it and even play it. Love you guys!
The fact that people hallenge him to play a meme song that he's never heard before, makes it a little difficult to appreciate the video itself. It's funny though.
Thats where you see that Herman Li is a professional. He made it through the whole song without getting distracted by the memes and other mashups (besides the boobs but hey, all of us fell for that). Madlad.
I did the trap remix, initially as a throwaway joke for the meme, but it was so well received that I went ahead and made the full remix a couple months later 💜
It’s because of videos like that I’m even watching Herman Li to begin with. My journey started with jason paradise. And the funny thing is I love through the fire and flames, but am not into shredding or metal at all. It’s just so flipping good!
Imagine being the guy who *made* the trap remix watching him play along and bounce to it 🫠 It's been years and we've had DMs and I still can't believe Herman knows and appreciates me ⚰️
My favorite part is how he doesnt take anything too seriously even in a band as well known as dragonforce. And still just laughs at the memes etc. I wish more famous people were like this.
DragonForce is a legend in my eyes for being a great band, a great meme, and generally just looking like some great folks to be around. I hope one day i can make it to a concert to see them play live :) In the meantime, ill continue to buy their albums as they rock!
Aaah duuuh obviously was that sick guitar skill right there at the end. Plus the fact that you atlest know Jason Paradise is cool to. I'm sheer he'd be thrilled to hear it.
One thing I love about Dragonforce, and have always loved about them, is that no matter how fast and busy and crazy technical the music gets, the vocal and guitar melodies SOAR. Those solos are bloody triumphant, and anyone who loves shredding or insanely fast playing loves DF for this exact reason.
This makes me ssooo happy! More of this kind of stuff! I love seeing artists actually enjoy random crap that people bullshirt out their internet orifices.
I love how they have embraced the Clone Hero/Rhythm gaming community. Herman seems like such a chill dude. Thank you for being you, man!!! Thank you for embracing our wonderful community.
My favourite part of this channel was when you played the guitar, you have always been one of my favourite guitar players, the way you figure things out and the tasks you do while you play, with everything happening, I don't know how you can be so calm and concentrate on playing
This one was streamed on TH-cam, he streams on twitch and TH-cam... Herman and Sam are going to have a livestream on TH-cam on the 20th of May, so watch out
He is HermanLi on twitch, and you already found the TH-cam. Follow him on twitch to get stream notifications, and subscribe and hit the bell icon on TH-cam for those streams.
@@basicallyme8205 no offense to Sam but he usually seems distracted and not that into it on the few clips I've seen. I prefer just Herman in all of his gloriousness.
i also lost it at 1:20 where you thought "so solo done" but looked so very surprised when it continued and didnt know where to set on your finger next xDDDD
My favorite part was the parts I could hear you playing that I've never heard or noticed before, and the fact that you are awesome enough to appreciate this funny video. Invite John Petrucci on the channel as Dream Theater are amazing too just like you guys.
Your reaction to this was wonderful! XD Thank you for the shoutout!
Thank you Jerod! You rule!
You should do a colab, that be epic
Love your content jerod ❤
Yes please, colab.
*walccing furret noises*
You dont see many Famous guitarists playing a meme of their song and actually enjoying it, this is why I love dragonforce so much, they can take a joke and make amazing music at the same time, the perfect combo. Keep it up guys, love from me to the whole band
So many people do that
@@oldmatevb Names
at least if it was a good joke, this video that he is reacting is just a bunch of random sounds and images poping on screen while the music is playing
Felipe Gomes don’t need to name you should know people if you are into metal.
@@oldmatevb yeah right good answer lol, if you're talking about random youtubers there are a bunch. But I'm talking about real bands, you don't see many bands this closer to their admirers, not like Dragonforce...
The madlad has achieved memehood ascension just by playing this song.
Brian Kimboll
This is MUI ascension.
Ascension you say? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
@@MinecraftPlayer-nw5kq do they sound like dragonforce? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
@@MinecraftPlayer-nw5kq how do dat face
Memehood or MAHMOOD!
Herman: What was your favourite part of this?
Me: you getting distracted by the woman in the middle of the solo and completely losing where you were when it came back
Herman: "The actual video was way more fun"
Me: "I don't know how he comes to this conclusion.."
I legit laughed out loud when that happened. Oh, Herman XD XD
and that guitar sounds like (o_o)
When?
Nevermind I found it.
“Finally something... WEEEH!”
*aggressive guitar slide*
“Finally, someth-...”
*frantic sliding*
"Finally, someth- FUCK!" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This part broke me.
Li's reaction was perfect.
@@Unrealbr The fact that he was shredding to one moment, to them stop and stare at it with his guitar just going "weeEEH" breaks me every time.
Watching him try to jump back in like nothing happened was priceless
@@hatred9427 Sounded like a Anime scene 🤣🤣🤣
I can die peacefully knowing that Herman Li has made the Down with the Sickness grunt live in front of hundreds of people.
oHwAhAhA
I can die peacefully being your 700th like.
It’s things like this that make me love Dragonforce and Herman Li even more. Instead of getting upset or mad at people memeing their music, they go with it, laugh with it and even play it. Love you guys!
I love to see him enjoying one for once.
I mean, didn't they also started this whole meme-thing from "so far away"?
I love this guy and the band he is in
Honestly tf is wrong with people angry at memeing their music
@@xGOKOPx that disgusting and rude one but this one is impressive edit
Internet: "We created the memes"
Dragonforce: "But we embraced them"
Ye
I want to like this comment but I cant.
He looks just so confused with this, i love it
Hes 45.
Reyansh Acharya
Really?
He got memed
The fact that people hallenge him to play a meme song that he's never heard before, makes it a little difficult to appreciate the video itself. It's funny though.
Nah that's just guitar face
I legit love how Heman's brain stops at the pics of the women in lingerie and then takes him a hot minute for his brain to reboot xD
Completely fumbled trying to get back to the guitar
Neuron activation
@@ShwappaJ seemed more like a neuron malfunction tbh lololol
"I got you right on camera. Go 'head and say cheese" moment.
I never thought that Herman Lee looking at a picture of himself edited with lazer eyes would react that way, but now I know. This has made my day
Herman Li at the beginning: "what"
Herman Li at 3 minutes in: we need more AH, bring back the AUGH"
Also Herman Li at 5:30: 0>0
Man him stopping the guitar at that moment couldn’t be too perfect
It looked like his mind said: "STOP, there's boobs!!"
@@dapear8264 That fumble to get his hands back on his guitar, too.
Jajjaja the reason for many expectators see this video
what a time to be alive, Herman Li playing Through the Tables and the Memes.
The memes in this are beautiful Herman's reactions also are priceless 😂
This is the greatest show of appreciation for the fan I have ever seen. Thanks so much for doing these videos.
Glad you like them!
5:27 Congrats to Herman for the best "WTF"- face I've ever seen😂
Thats where you see that Herman Li is a professional. He made it through the whole song without getting distracted by the memes and other mashups (besides the boobs but hey, all of us fell for that). Madlad.
4:09 The guy who did the trap remix has just creamed himself.
BandiPat and PhonicBoom
Someone needs to let them know
Thats a trap remix? But it sounds too good to be trap
I did the trap remix, initially as a throwaway joke for the meme, but it was so well received that I went ahead and made the full remix a couple months later 💜
can I bring up the fact that the remix and Herman were playing in different keys and just how annoying that was?
5:24 HAHAHAHAHAHAH LOVE IT!!! the way how it surprised herman and the moment he couldnt recover the song hahahhaha
Herman Li.exe stopped working
It seems like the first time he’s seen bobs and vagene. That reaction is priceless!
@@avengedsoul6661 😂😂
Yeah omg so funny
Yep x
5:35 Herman got distracted by the image of the sensual girl in lingerie LMAO...
🤣😂🤣
😂😂😂
LOL
Hmm... Finally something... Oh
Herman Li: Calmly hammers the frets
Guitar Hero Players: *FURIOUS GUITAR STROKING*
Guitar stroking why did that make me laugh
Funniest thing is the this video is copyrighted by umg. A musician can’t even play their own song without avoiding a copyright strike😂😂😂
Exactly!😂😂
When Dragonforce got copyright claim by Dragonforce
I heard that they don't own the rights to their music, UMG does lol
A lot of bands don’t own the rights to their songs
Makes sense doesn't it? They sign a contract for a label so they have the funds to produce and the labels in turn get the rights to the songs
I have been introduced to some crazy shit in my time. This is easily top 10. I love it.
This is great in all, but this (points at twisted timbers triple camel backs at king dominion) i like this.
Myon myon meme douga and this lol
OMG Thank you for your kind words. This video has gone farther than I EVER thought it would. Rock on!!!
Herman went and made his guitar sound like an engine at 7:36
5:25
He seemed to confused and entranced XD When the music came back he was like "Oh shit wait, I'm still playing guitar!!"
5:35 I’m sorry but it looks like your Herman Li needs a reboot, would you like to start
Yes Yes
I love that he knew about Jason. Really brings together the GH fandom and famous musicians.
When a band actually embraces the memes instead of copyright strikes everyone who potentially uses their content to indirectly make money
Isnt it mostly the record company who does the striking?
It’s because of videos like that I’m even watching Herman Li to begin with. My journey started with jason paradise. And the funny thing is I love through the fire and flames, but am not into shredding or metal at all. It’s just so flipping good!
I'm just surprised that he recognized jasonparadise and identified him by name.
It that how you know you've made it?
The part where it dies the trap remix and he plays along... I never knew I needed this until now
Imagine being the guy who *made* the trap remix watching him play along and bounce to it 🫠 It's been years and we've had DMs and I still can't believe Herman knows and appreciates me ⚰️
Love the falling man with the Wilhelm Scream... But that look at 5:28 totally got me xDD
4:02 oh herman that wasn't a dog sound
Yep, that's a grapefruit
@@theblackbaron4119 damn we're smart
1:44 No guitar sound before jack black came in and singing was just perfect 👌 top notch
Watching Herman Li immerse himself in meme culture has been one of the best things to come out of quarantine.
I love it when Herman did the down with the sickness grunts
That god damned pac-man got me good.
I'm sad herman seemed not to notice that and make some sort of comment
FOR REALS I DIED
Mario pipes got me.
I can’t count how many times I laughed at Herman’s reaction! 😂😂😂 First time watching the actual video for me as well. Priceless!
This marks the history of Dragonforce between their guitar player aka Herman Li and the memes. A new relationdship has been forged.
My favorite part is how he doesnt take anything too seriously even in a band as well known as dragonforce. And still just laughs at the memes etc. I wish more famous people were like this.
I love how he’s channel is just “fire and the flames but with a twist”
I love that he embraces the meme
DragonForce is a legend in my eyes for being a great band, a great meme, and generally just looking like some great folks to be around. I hope one day i can make it to a concert to see them play live :)
In the meantime, ill continue to buy their albums as they rock!
His reaction when the girls popped up lol he looked so mesmerized 😆 I'm dead😂
Surprised it took 2 years for them to finally react to it. Great to see it.
The fact that he was playing along and joking at the same exact time is hilarious! I would not be able to keep up with a chart like that IRL
We all need more WO AH AH AH HAs from David Draiman
I love this channel. You guys actually care about the community.
7:49 caught yourself playing with it huh Herman. lol
"far beyond the moonland, far beyond the sunlight" is still my favourite part of this meme
Aaah duuuh obviously was that sick guitar skill right there at the end. Plus the fact that you atlest know Jason Paradise is cool to. I'm sheer he'd be thrilled to hear it.
One thing I love about Dragonforce, and have always loved about them, is that no matter how fast and busy and crazy technical the music gets, the vocal and guitar melodies SOAR. Those solos are bloody triumphant, and anyone who loves shredding or insanely fast playing loves DF for this exact reason.
I lost my brain cells when it said far beyond the moon day far beyond the sunlight
Sameee
Same here I was like lolwut
Moon down*
This makes me ssooo happy! More of this kind of stuff! I love seeing artists actually enjoy random crap that people bullshirt out their internet orifices.
Favourite part was the lingerie... more precise: your reaction to it
Li: O_o "HMMMM....."
5:31 New Twitch emote pls
absolutely in love with just how perplexed herman is with this.
3:08 Herman Lee: oh wa ah a ahh Guitar hero: what the f**k?
Disturbed: lmao, is Oh Wa Ah Ah ah
4:14 that part was killin it 🤣🤣
"We Need David back" I just love how he just fully embraced his screech xD
I love how they have embraced the Clone Hero/Rhythm gaming community. Herman seems like such a chill dude. Thank you for being you, man!!! Thank you for embracing our wonderful community.
The complete lack of reaction is the most interesting thing here
iirc he'd already heard the song, just not seen the vid
Bobbybill123 he didnt just hear the song, he was in the band that made the song.
@@suulito8195 yeah but the changed version
React to people reacting to DragonForce
I'm actually impressed that you kept a straight face throughout the whole video while playing through it.
5:23 Did you get distracted by something for a bit there, Herman?
This guy's really good, he should join a band.
i think he is, i think its called dragonforce, its a pretty small band, no ones heard of them
7:28 the way he just kept shredding 🤣
It makes me smile seeing him playing along to the solo and killing it!! 🤘🤘🤘 lol
I’m so happy that he has a sense of humor. My respect for him only grows
I love how active Dragonforce is in the community!
My favourite part of this channel was when you played the guitar, you have always been one of my favourite guitar players, the way you figure things out and the tasks you do while you play, with everything happening, I don't know how you can be so calm and concentrate on playing
The memes be strong with you Mr Herman Li😁 amazing skills brother!
Words can't describe how excellent this video and Herman's reactions to it are.
Came here from Jeord's Stream because he reacted to this while playing the drums.
It's gone full circle now!
I've wanted a full woah version for ages. My favourite part hands down
What did I stumble on to. I just introduced my 11 yr old son to you. He's learning drums. I can't wait to show him this.
React Herman Li reacting Through the Tables and Memes
My favorite part was when you got to the part with the models 😂
5:25 11/10 totally saw it coming XDDD
Now we just need Serj Tankian to join Herman on stream one day 🤣
Let's hope that one day that option is on the TABLE.
He looks so confused lmao, that was priceless!
I love how he is aware of most of these memes, Jason paradise and that draiman imitation xD adorable!
5:25 Herman is a man of cultural i see 😂
5:25 guitar goes REEEEEEEEE
4:10 my favorite by far
This man brings me joy.
I think its cool how you appreciate all types of music.
Makes me want to check out dragon force again honestly.
5:40 the Mario pipes is what got me
How can i watch Herman Lee's livestreems?Plz reply anyone.He's my idol.
He is on twitch
This one was streamed on TH-cam, he streams on twitch and TH-cam...

@@basicallyme8205 no offense to Sam but he usually seems distracted and not that into it on the few clips I've seen. I prefer just Herman in all of his gloriousness.
4:08 when Herman rocks out to the trap mix section rocks
I always loved this man so much but now, what an amazing dude 👌🏻
And this is why you're my favorite guitarist, Herman Li. You're so amazing.
How did this dude even learn how to play this song this well?! Im sure he will make it big someday
Herman Li, I love your reaction with this video LOL YOU ROCK!
i also lost it at 1:20 where you thought "so solo done" but looked so very surprised when it continued and didnt know where to set on your finger next xDDDD
dude, thats how the song sounds on a bad trip!
My favorite part was to see how much fun Herman Li was having. And I like that he is a fan of David Draiman 👍🤘
God Bless You Herman Li!!! You’re absolutely the best!!!
I love Herman Li. It's really fun to just watch him do stuff with a straight face all day.
You Herman. You were my favourite part. You’re the best thanks for the laugh. Keep on rockin
Are we all going to overlook the fact that Herman was straight up vibing to the trap part of this?
No way I was not expecting this lol great job Herman!
My favorite part was the parts I could hear you playing that I've never heard or noticed before, and the fact that you are awesome enough to appreciate this funny video. Invite John Petrucci on the channel as Dream Theater are amazing too just like you guys.
