In case you never seen, there is a brazilian song that Caetano Veloso sings that is the same as "Arioso" - Bach, its name is "Céu de Santo Amaro". It's a great song, but as you said, they're making millions from it. =) Cheers, you're fk*ng great man!
Very funny :). But The Beatles (Lennon and McCartney ) wrote a tons of songs simply wonderful and I mean...original. You take one of the few which was like that.
Just tell me, for example, if Yesterday is a copy of something else;what about I am the walrus? eh eh
i loved this video. your song "hey, hey, sweet lady" sound really good btw.
[after listening to the 'original' song] "Jason Mraz" and "Lucas Brar" have the same distribution and order of consonants and vowels. Coincidence? I think not.
hit like if you want a full version of "hey hey my sweet lady"
Taha much better than the original.
That was just playing notes really fast without any soul... anyone can play garbage fast. If I wanted that I’d get my computer to play lighting fast arpeggios faster than any human could. And that’s how you arrive at black midi.
But hey hey my sweet lady had emotion and livelyness, a real human and soulful expression!

@@aienbalosaienbalos4186 you just said that chopins nocturne have no soul? is this some kind of sarcastic joke?
yeees please
Who needs a sub here?
*Plays canon in D in C*
Wait, that's illegal

That's called an epic gamer move.
OMG im calling the police
@@LucasBrar madman
Hahaha
“Take a Bach song and make it better”
I actually died laughing that was great😂😂
the_white_mamba thought he said “bad”
Was expecting a "Take a Bach song and make it Beatles" tho
Me too😂😂
It's funny because you can't
Badder, tho
As a Brazilian, I'm so proud of seeing some "not brazilian" person who knows that Maria Moita by Carlos Lyra is a clear inspiration for Smoke On The Water, *you are insane, man!*
@@CaioTavaresFaria Ele é Sueco meu amigo :/
Amigo, I cannot contradict that "Smoke on the water" is simillar to "Maria Motia", but at the same time, knowing that smoke on the water is not most complicated piece.... well I would call that, a pure coincidence.

“Hello. I am the lawyer representing the estate of Johann Sebastian Bach....”
@FluffY PenguiN 😂😂😂😂
70 years after the death of a composer any piece of him is copyright free
That's why Eric Carmen got problems by the Rachmaninoff society
Dami dami....
TermsofService it’s a shame Bach didn’t have that
This is gonna be a hit trust me and come back in about 7 years when youtube recommends it.
cryp Let’s see😀
Hey guys from the future
I will come back here once it got ripped off by big record studios for one of their newest pretty bois !
hhahhaahahahahhaahah
@@LucasBrar it will definitely be a hit
All I learned from this is that if Bach were alive today he'd be a top pop producer right now
nah he'd be the underground dude everyone steals from
poor bach
not black enough
He was then too. He wrote a lot of music by a very systemetic scheme. Like Popsongs nowadays. He only did it more elaboratet.
Or he would get rich with law suits
Is it a hit?? Comment below. Maybe I'll do a full version😂
Oh yeah
Yes, if you'll do the full version you'll get millions
Please make a full version it's very lovely!
Oh please do, I'll (maybe) become a patron if you do
@@christiandariocuevasalzate8579 that's how he's gonna make millions
So, Bach is the father of modern and popular music
Bach to Western music is like Shakespeare to Western literature
And half europea population
@@nazaroffkz english literature*
Josué López fair point
@@nazaroffkz ye only englishmen all about that dude.
This should have been a series of “exposing pop musicians” 😂😂😂
Definitely!
It's just inspirations anyways
🤣🤣🤣
@@patrickimperial579 """inspirations"""
Lol fr!
Instant like, your skills are beyond this world man.
Tru tru
Erick Flores its all in the hat
Lucas: "Let's for example take a part of Pachelbel - Canon in D"
Also Lucas: *plays in C*
Sounds like D
Well if you think about it, D is just C with a line, And backwards. With a less extreme curve. Basically the same.
Hazaa, a man of good quality
@@remruatpuiaralte918 Totally looks like it too except he plays a c and f chord
@@adwitatherealadwita also D ist way too close to the saddest key of them all.
plays canon in D in C.
sacreligious.
Bad man
Ling Ling would not approve
Not epic
No SLAP LIKE
Is there actually a good way to play Canon in D?
@@davec1 capo hehe
guitar skills aside, Mr Lucas has a beautiful voice singing tho
+
yes
he still has enough time to make a youth band
Your hit sounded legit. The fact that you use more than 4 chords makes it sound more authentic and colourful. I would buy it today 🙌👏👏👏
and that's exactly where he fails. Use two or three chords, under exceptional circumstances you can get away with four.
True, people feel too thought evoked when they hear that fifth cord
I lost it at 2:33
"Take a Bach song and make it better"
Had me wheezing! 🤣🤣
😂😂😂
I thought he was saying
Take a Bach song and make it Beatles
I love how people say Bach😂Bahhhh 😂😂😂😂
Yeah... wheezing...😑
Lmao doing that Liverpool accent
At first, I thought it was the tipical 4 chords video but... it isn't. i was impressed with the video. It's amazing!
If you can play it slowly.
If you can slow it playly
@@testing4037 you can play it quickly 😜
Your a genius man.
I’ve been playing guitar everyday for 40 yrs and I have been a luthier during that time. I love my job, I love playing but GOD DAMN IT, I cannot play like you can. Your classical chops are something I only dream of. I can’t read music, never could, boy I tried but just could never master it. I envy your talent sir. It’s a true honor to listen to you play. Thanks and I mean it!!!!!
Peace ✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻❤️🇺🇸
Don’t envy anyone. Just keep practicing and don’t give up! ❤️
@@Marshiethemarshmallow i'm pretty sure if u do it for 40 years every day and cant do it, u'll never be able to do it ...
@@KingOfHell94 Very wrong. Dead wrong. So wrong it's funny. Hellishly wrong. Wrongfully wrong.
@@wornstrat5517 mkay
Old post but the artist is his own harshest critic.
Actual way to write a hit song:
Step 1: Find a famous classical melody
Step 2: Keep the essence but simplify and change the rhythm
Step 3: Add lyrics
Step 4: Add rap beats
Linkin Park ?
Step 5: Profit
Step 6: Change name to Shawn Bieber
Step 5: Use Autotune
😂😂😂
1:18 OMG you sing in French. Impressed
sadly he can't in english
He has a french gf. thats why, i think...
Second after the full song of ''hey hey sweet lady'' is in TH-cam I'll put it in my playlist
And I'm gonna make my own hit song from ''für Elise''
Please please don't !
@@marktyler3381 yeah please don't
sorry Jack Black already beat ya to it D:
NaS already did it
Other People:
"Wow, look at the I V VI IV."..."
You laughing:
"Fools! Let's take things to a whole different level!"
2:58 a gente te ama 🇧🇷🇧🇷
Nasss tem BR q curte musica boa, sabia não
Brinks ;D
Tem
Tem sim haha
Definitivamente tem ksksk
Vamo fazer um grupo no whatsapp pra falar de música, fazer uma banda hauahaua brincadeira, mas se quiserem
I want a full version of “all by myself”
Except he would get copystruck by both the estate of Rachmaninov and the lawyer of Eric Carmen
Lucas's disgust face when he realizes that maria moita became smoke on the water lmao.
Your hit song is more like something that was a hit in 2008 than in 2019. Something kinda like I'm Yours by Jason Mraz.
damn near in 2019 you can make a hit by recording yourself shit in a trash can
Correct to write a hit song nowadays you'll need a generic trap beat and a lot of autotune!
@evoljellyfish 00 I disagree, it's just that the popular style of music has changed. Anybody who believes music in general is getting worse isn't knowledgeable about music in any way.
@evoljellyfish 00 You're just elaborating on how ignorant you are to what music is out there right now. And about life in general. You're a crackpot.
@evoljellyfish 00 If you were a professional musician who studied music in college you wouldn't have listed the two most basic classical composers known to every human on the planet.
“Take a Bach song and make it better” oh I get it 🤣
Better?:D
@@sumerege8377 yeah
Jokes appart his voice is really amazing
You clearly demonstrate the influence of classical and that there's nothing new under the sun (just a variation of it). Brilliant dude!
Brazil loves you back
Play a little samba with some "baixarias", that would be awesome
Boooooom! Explosive 🧨 hit hahaha love your music man, god
Job
You've forgotten to add tresillo rhythm, one-word melody, and "tonight" word in the end
You understand music on a whole other level
A beautiful chord progression will always be a beautiful chord progression
quality music never dies
Let's not make any bones about the fact that you're just super talented and you've put in the work. Anybody can take a classical song, not anybody can turn it into something new and just as good. Well done, sir! You're a songwritererer.
"Hey hey my sweet lady" could total be a Jason Mraz song kkkkk.
True story kkkkkk
Your right hand technique is absolutely impeccable
The line:"Take a Bach song" was hilarious but the pause and the look was the cherry on the cake!
I'm off to rip off Francisco Tarrega. I'll see you all at the Grammy's.😄
Peter Havenga haha yes do it!!
Nokia will copyright claim
@@noahpinheiro5685 That's legit the smartest joke I've seen in a while
Or be like Heino and turn military songs or folk songs into pop songs
The song Havana beat you to it. Sorry fam.
This is so interesting. Me and my dad have been trying to write a song for a while now. I know where we can find a good melody now
I absolutely love your “Plasir d’Amour” arrangement! Where did you learn that and could you please do a tutorial? I really want to learn it your way. It’s my favorite.
Uaal, man, you should make videos playing the complete versions of these classical songs. This guitar sounds so beautiful that I would hear it everyday. I admire you, man
I am from Brazil and i really love your videos,
I'm very grateful for you to spread some of the brazilian culture!
PETITION FOR BACH IN BLACK MASHUP SONG
Bach in Blach.
@@Darm0k yes lol
That’s so clever haha
I'm kinda sure you used too many chords when writing a hit song
Lol . Wp sir
Like you would do any better. 😒
r/whooosh
@@Marshiethemarshmallow firstly, you didn’t get the joke, and secondly, “you couldn’t do any better” is probably the worst type of criticism you can give someone. Imagine your power goes out. It takes electricians 2 weeks to show up and then 3 months to fix it. Well I guess you can’t complain cuz you couldn’t do any better, right?
You need only about 3
4 if you're feeling REAL fancy
Elvis voice was on point.
and mouth gesture 🤣
Thank you thankyouverymuch
fr tho
i love this dude’s elvis impersonation
can we all just take a minute to see how amazing Lucas Brar is at singing
“Let’s play Pachebel’s Canon in D.” *Proceeds to play in the key of C.*
Your videos are the only ones that i give like to before even watching them. Never felt dissapointed by that decision.
VIVA BRAZIL!!!! i am brazilian and i love the consideration that you have for my country 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Classical music has had a huge influence on pop and rock music. That's why I've started listening to classical music
Saw this video and two others of yours. I am self taught guitarist and needs to learn how to read music. I gotta say you have true talent and you are incredible at playing and have a great voice. I just now subscribed to you!
I just realized Moon River fits in with the nocturne
hit song with more than 4 chords, diminished and extensions? Ha
My iq is 789 and I only listen to classical jazz swing fusion. Aren't I so unique guys. Please like me
@@bt3743 I read this comment in filthy frank's voice.
@@bt3743 it's a running joke on the channel.
B Tambling same
That should actually be thought in every music school.
Lucas Brar, you are a genius! Your skills and versatility are magical! It is a treat to watch you perform.
Man, you’re such a good guitarist, it’s a joy to watch you play all these classical pieces.
That Rachmaninov piece was straight goosebumps
Yeah that's good but can you play smoke on the watOH.
You should check out the brazilian song called "Céu de Santo Amaro". It's absolutelly beautiful. It's also Bach.
Bach: exists
Pop stars: it’s free real estate
That expression you made right before the money started to rain got me... I was laughing like crazy. Liked and Subscribed. Good job.
No.
Stop being so talented
It’s ILLIGAL!
when it was your song I swear I didn’t expect it to come out so nice
did anyone see that pun when he did the one with the beatles LMAOO "take a bach song and make it better"
You’re an extravaganza man! Very entertaining!
Ah, Lucas… another with the insights laser-drilled to the core! When you played Bach’s “Ariosto,” I thought sure what was coming next was ABBA’s “The Winner Takes It All,” but hey, “Hey, Jude” works as well. Just more proof!
Keep it up, good man!
Kenneth Crawford thanks man, really glad to hear that!
@@LucasBrar Not trying to drag out the extended commentary here, but I must say that I have enjoyed your videos immensely! I tend to be a lurker and not comment much, but I have had so much fun watching your oh, so unique approach to music, and seeing your obvious level of accomplishment . . . it's just a consummate joy! So thank you, and always keep it up!
one of your best uploads❤️
greetings from Philippines🇵🇭
I've been watching your videos for like days. And I've been hooked to it.!!thank you
Não sei se você é BR, mas caraca !
Quando você começou a tocar Carlos Lyra, pensei "Smoke on the water?????"...
Beijin pra homeland patria amada Braseeeeeeeeeeeel
A mesma coisa que eu pensei kkkkkkkk e depois apareceu um viva Brasil mano como assim. Ou é br ou é fã do Brasil
Ele curte Bossa Nova, olha uns vídeos mais antigos dele
Salve irmao
eu ia comentar isso agora mano, mas descobri que ele é da Suécia
mesmo assim é muito dahora ver que um Sueco que curte música brasileira mais que muitos brasileiros hasuahushu
@@mhsbosco EXATO, Bosco! É exatamente isso que me surpreende!!
*"Oh mah gawd, I don't like like classical music, cuz like so boring, oh I luv that maroon 5 song, mah jam"*
😞🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫
Edit: Not enough revolvers
Not enough water pistols
not enough sad
Dude.... classics are the best. You need some classical and tradition in your life. 🙁 Why adopt this modern culture when there is so much of the past being left behind or forgotten?
@@Marshiethemarshmallow YOU DONT GET ANY JOKESSSSSS
@@Marshiethemarshmallow r/woooshhh
Also "It's now or never" by Elvis is "O Sole mío"
Brilliant! I will share my first million with you AND mention you as my inspiration at the Grammys. Magnificent! So glad I found you. Best to you, New Subscriber
Thank you for your videos, you turn around some of my worst days with your positivity.
So. When's it coming on Spotify?
Me: *looks up classical songs not yet used for a pop hit.
Black Angels - Crumb
Better still just use the same ones, noone will remember
Chopin winter wind lmaooo try using that for a pop song

When u sing a song and I search for the original song. Your versio is more beautiful
That's one top quality compliment
He actually sings really good !!
I love that shouted in the backsound

Honestly this was absolutely incredible, you just won an instant subcriber
One day I was playing BWV 147 ( Coral ), and some kid said: that's a Malmsteen song
You turned a smile on my face. Wow wonderfull how you play the guitar.
Das ist so shonn ! I'm French and your version of plaisir d'amour is really beautiful ! It would be great to have a full version ! Anyway danke for this great source of inspiration which your channel is !
Imagine 4'33" - John Cage become hit pop song after 400 years.
It’s literally the best song tho like practicing it is so fun
Play a piano concerto in a guitar
Me : Wait, that's illegal
so... haha. i’m french and i can tell you that your french accent is pretty good dude
Ouais c'est surprenant.
You play guitar so dope. And your voice quality is just awesome dude
All joking aside, you have a beautiful voice and play the guitar with such elegance.
Canon in D
jazz man : *plays canon in C*
Beatles a lot of the musics are with inspiration in bach like Blackbird
Chopin: Look how he massacred my boy...
Not even one minute into this video and you already blew my mind. DAMN
Man,this was more than revelation.Your videos are contagious.😀👍👍👍
The minute I heard "memories" for the first time I almost strangled someone..... Being a cellist and all :)
The irony in this video is gold
U SHOULD COVER THEM SONGS , ESPECIALLY PLAISIR D'AMOUR
I love the way that you talk about brazilian music. Thank you!
I could listen to this guy all day. Wow.
