I am 74 years old and have played the guitar for 34 years. After listening to this performance of Purple Rain, I walked in and picked up my guitar kissed it and said, " So this is what you are supposed to sound like!"
Who is so sad in their life to complain about music. Please if you ever stop enjoying music just do the world a favor and move to the middle of no where and stay away from places where humans enjoy life.
@@zombywoof1015 they didn't in this video, but they have in quite a few of his videos & have given him tickets before. Not too long ago though when the cop made him stop she told him he needed a permit, so when he went to look into it, the city said he didn't need one, so I think that's why in this video she just asked if he could lower it a bit & didn't try to make him leave again.
Amazing watching this group of people, complete strangers, just mesmerized and smiling. No politics, no deception, just music. If we can just learn to do this more and more together.
Randy I may be off base, but politicians work to separate us so they can get a share of the votes, not for any other reason. Music is a great common ground to meet on. We need to look to those leaders who want to unite a country, not to a leader who preached division and hatred. Nuff said.
@@kerrypitt9789 Well said Kerry, I agree. The problem is actually finding leaders who want us together and untied. We sure don't have any now. It would likely be surprising just how well everyone would get along IF the media, social media and politicians would leave us alone. Sadly though, that WON'T happen I'm afraid.
@@3dbeatsbln67 no they are good men, soldiers, patriots that become cops because they are men and like to protect and help people. Unlike most of the panty waste in this country who run from it or watch and do nothing. Men become soldiers, cops, firefighters and paramedics. They do good. I support the blue.
What an endorsement for the guy who got the Telecaster, I believe he said he buys and sells guitars. As for the performance, to pick up another man's guitar and play like this is just phenomenal. What a performer.
Im reading your comments probably thousand of miles away from you , and i love you for writing this , and we sure do need more of you across the world as well . God blesses peace
I just found this on here and I thought I was the oldest one listening. You beat me by 10 years. I love this guy bringing everyone together. All ages sharing the fun and joy of neighborly joy
Hi Dovydas. It's me. That one guy that watches all your videos. That was so rad, dude. Wish I could see you live. Perhaps, one day! Keep drawing the crowds...AND the Police. 🤣
That’s the whole point of these areas he’s playing at that’s why they have plug in spots for musicians it’s just those store owners / managers that can’t seem to be happy with there life and just enjoy the show he’s not harming anyone he has a crowed obviously people love him it’s like let him be waste of law enforcements time just to have them tell him to quiet down
All of us on TH-cam, yeah we have heard Purple Rain a quite a few times... ok one more time then "sigh". Then he plays and the world is a magical place again... and we all forgot the 10 thousand times we have heard this song, and there was just one... and this was it.
I've heard Dovydas do this one countless times. Most of the time you can hear the boredom coming through. Not this time. I think this is the best he's ever done this song.
As a lifelong musician that has played with numerous guitarists & singers, I can tell you that this man is phenomenal and the spirit of that guitar brought forth it's total appreciation for bringing it to life in such a magical way. You sir are truly a gift to this world.
Dovydas,you are proof that there are Angels who walk amongst us! Prince was smiling down from Heaven giving you his two thumbs up on this one!God bless you my brother!
THIS MAN NEEDS TO BE ON A HUGE STAGE WITH THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WATCHING AND SCREAMING!! THIS IS NOT TALENT, THIS IS A GOD GIVIN GIFT!! ABSOLUTELY FREAKING STUNNING!!! I would LOVE to see him live!!!💜💜💜💜💜👌👌👌
I know u get sick of playing this old boy....but I promise u our deceased music king prince crys from the heavens when he hears u wind up with ur twist on this iconic tune that hits the world in the soul when u play it with such grace an honor....thank u from one of millions who can't hear this enough
I saw many comments about crying when this man plays and people not knowing why... He brought me to tears too. I think it's his raw talent.. He is able to reproduce even the most complicated parts of a song as we came to know it.. He doesn't just strum, he recreates even the delicate sounds and does it beautifully! His skill is obviously rare and his ability to reproduce the sounds that are unique to an individual song are a wonderful surprise and it makes his rendition surprisingly authentic.
Wow. So refreshing to see a group of people gathered together with no anger or anything other than listening to an awesome musician/singer giving his all to them. New subscriber here.
This made me feel something. The kid that ask for the song, my man! And the other guy who brought that beautiful guitar, genius!. As for the artist, you are a blessed man
it just struck midnight, and I just received the largest paycheck I've received in my entire life Whilst witnessing this gentlemen play the closing solo behind his back immaculately. Life is Great.😢🎉
What's god-given about his talent is that he attempted to do the things he does. Most musicians don't explore their limits and are content with what they can play. What separates a musician from another is how he/she keeps expanding his/her limits.
No, horde of businesses complain that his music is draining out their stores' pathetic "musick" recordings. The cops are mostly responding to them, not him. It's a shame. This world has become so jaded and cynical.
Very emotional song too. Prince wrote emotional music that you can honestly feel inside your body. Get in a car an crank up this song or little red Corvette (prince version) and I know that if you like music as in real music like guitar, drums, bass, piano. Basically any woods stings ECT. I know you'll feel something
As a grown man, father of two and one pretty tough SOB. Your playing always makes me emotional, and man, that's saying something. Keep it up bud. You are something special.
I love his interaction with the crowd. Isn't just standing there playing music- but i always see him getting people involved and bringing people together (even if only for the length of a song).
I have only 2 questions after listening to you play Tennessee whiskey and now I found you on another TH-cam video. Why aren't you playing in a band and recording records or are you? You are really that good.
@@annamaccow7763 Idk if it was on Tennessee Whiskey or this one that the comment was made that he doesn't want to be tied down to the restrictions of contracts etc . The man's a free spirit & it soars & shows in his music! Rock on!!
Thank you brother for working your magic so all these young guns get to witness real music. I grew up in the 80s, we got to experience real bands. These kids need this.
Oh how right you are! I guess we are from the same generation! You know my kids are in their twenties so are their great circle of friends between the two of them( one is a police officers the other civil engineer) and they only listen to our music! Can you believe that?
@@TheNewVaultOfKnowledge I looked at the top comment as suggested, there is no mention or credit given to the young man that lent his hand made guitar for DØVYDAS to play.
@@techlover231 strange. When I look at top comments, there's one with like a thousand likes from the guy who gave him the guitar saying thanks. So yeah, the connection was made.
Police please let this genius share his gift with those physically and remotely. I am a TH-camr fan from British Columbia, Canada. Unbelievable gift. Thank you so much for sharing.
@@noneyabuiznezz It has nothing to do with the police! It’s the businesses that complain and the police have to respond. If YOU have a problem with that YOU should contact city hall and attend city Commissioner meetings and air your grievances to the people that actually make the ordinances!
Never thought anyone but prince would be able to do this song. Wow!! I believe you captured what tge great one truly felt when he wrote this beautiful song. Very emotional, you did Prince very proud my friend!!
It is unfathomable that this amount of talent can exist in one moment. I have been repeating this loop since 3am yesterday and am transfixed with how it brings out a musical emotion in me for a style I never knew I craved. Thank you sir.
I can't even begin to tell you the joy and memories that flooded my system hearing this rendition of purple rain. You have earned a fan and can't wait to see how far you go, to the stars my friend to the stars.
Sounds test, was epic, reminds me when eddy vanhalen would do a sound test. Keep up the awesome work of bringing people together in these troubled times.
WOW..Just...wow. If you keep playing "Purple Rain" with that energy and emotion this isn't the last time it's requested. That was amazing Dovydas it really was. Thanks as well Jill for the great video.

Totally awesomely talented.
Cannot understand how or why someone hasn't recruited you!
Thanks for playing my guitar Dovydas! That was nothing short of magical man
I know the guy that hand made Prince's Purple Rain guitar..lives in Washington State
Awesome idea to run and give it to him to play! I enjoyed the song a lot!
And you are AMAZING!!!
Your guitar just got got most expensive Dude! Soo freaking lucky man! What a good call!

Was having a rough start to my morning until I read your comment to which I laughed for about 5 minutes straight. Thank you Willie :)
You are an incredible artist, never be hard on yourself bc you are a genius musician everyday of your life!
I too will indeed kiss my guitars and give them this guys address ❤️👏
Lmao
And what did it say?
The city should be paying this man. Not running him off.
Just think of all the people drawn downtown just to see him.
Who is so sad in their life to complain about music. Please if you ever stop enjoying music just do the world a favor and move to the middle of no where and stay away from places where humans enjoy life.
I SAID I SAW NO COPS RUN HIM OFF. YOU KNOW NOT OF WHAT YOU SPEAK!

Word
If music and song, and the performing arts can't unite the world in peace and harmony then nothing will!

That poor guitar will never forget that one night stand!
Hahaha!!

Yup! He took her good alright!!!
You are whats right with the world 🤣🤣🤣
Ruined that guitar for other players.... no one will finger it like that again....

It was a gift 🎁to him...
It's a 🎁gift to everyone...
I am 123 Years Old and I Agree With You...
Y’all cops need to leave my man alone. He out here bringing joy into peoples lives
The police don't have a choice. People complain and they have to respond. They are caught in the middle and probably hate it.
@@dangrimes5078
The Police probably want to join in really.
@@dangrimes5078 Thats just .. super sad. Because it is their choice to become a cop. You DON'T need to be a police officer don`t you agree?

What an endorsement for the guy who got the Telecaster, I believe he said he buys and sells guitars. As for the performance, to pick up another man's guitar and play like this is just phenomenal. What a performer.
This guy is refreshing in these TROUBLED TIMES LOVE IT OR LEAVE IT I LOVE IT BROTHER KEEP OT GOING
A new legend!! Tears are flowing....
He definitely gave me those wonderful goosebumps
I TOTTALY AGREE , HE IS AWESOME .
The value of that guitar just went up.
I'd imagine that was the kids idea. He said he buys and sells on reverb.
Love it 😍!
I have 3 tele's and a stratocaster
That Telly doesn’t need any help in the value department. Ask any of the great players….
"Made by who? Made by hand." :) Sounds like he said KHG in Asheville (NC?). Maybe I didn't hear him correctly.

You have no idea.
Enjoy in Spain... 💚✌️
Yup I'm in Johannesburg South Africa having a blast watching him 😀
am listening to this amazing masterpiece from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia here
I am a 86 year old young lady and I would like to thank you for your music. I enjoy it tremendously. Thank you so much..

Yes what great a idea! Free to perform without without complaint and free to listen too just a shelter and a power point !
It would bring cities money that they say they dont have. Guys like this need to be discovered before we never experience their magical tallents.
NYC has it on the streets in the subway I listen on my to and way home from work every day.

You can tell the kid who gave him that guitar lived for that moment. Can see the passion in his eyes, that’s what it’s about.

He just brought love to the whole crowd. Brought everyone together. He's amazing
Wow! Definitely not some guy with a hat and a guitar on the street corner, this guy is bringing concert grade talent to the streets 👍
The best of anything I've heard publicly at no cost, the city owes you a great deal of gratitude.
Agree 100%
He's better than most of the musicians recording today.
He’s brilliant, great talent ,💚
Most? More like 99% of them. Not that I'm a expert but he is in the top 20 of all time IMO.
Most definitely is! It’s cause he plays from the heart, and isn’t tainted like the others
True enough! He has heart.
definitely head and shoulders better than the no talented nobodies who can’t even play an instrument but call themselves musicians

Was about to say the same thing haha
After hearing this how could he ever defend autotune , yet he will . His natural voice is epic and guitar playing absolutely amazing ..
@Bill Repko Best explanation of this effect you will see , great video th-cam.com/video/NNXg5dIVC1M/w-d-xo.html

Or, alternatively...

Concise and perfect!
Dovy is tired of this song, but the fact it keeps getting requested says a lot about how awesome he is at it.

I'm sure Prince was tired of it, too
Must be nice to go home knowing you have given so much joy to so many people, and go to sleep with a smile on your face !!!!!

to so many people and one guitar

don't diminish his hard work, I can assure you he has over 10,000 hours of time on the guitar.
He has a God given gift. Praise God. He is really blessed.
What's god-given about his talent is that he attempted to do the things he does. Most musicians don't explore their limits and are content with what they can play. What separates a musician from another is how he/she keeps expanding his/her limits.

He's plugged into the Universe. The stars shine through him.
One thing I love about Dovydas: he gives his soul and body to the song and performance, whether there is one person watching or one thousand
Does that kid realize he just boosted the value of that caster???
I would guess that was his angle
Now if only he would have played it with his mouth. $$$$$$$$$
he said he buys and sells
If he sits on it he might just make some serious $. Dovy's day will come...
My thoughts exactly. An entrepreneur with street smarts.
Makes me happy to see an old guitar still singing it's heart out in such skilled hands... with vocals to match
I love his interaction with the crowd. Isn't just standing there playing music- but i always see him getting people involved and bringing people together (even if only for the length of a song).

Oh how right you are! I guess we are from the same generation! You know my kids are in their twenties so are their great circle of friends between the two of them( one is a police officers the other civil engineer) and they only listen to our music! Can you believe that?
It’s way better the folks who just enjoy this than folks staring at the phone. They miss out on the whole experience. This was beautiful moment.
The young man that lent his hand made guitar should get a mention or credit in the description.
everyone like this!!
See top comment
@@TheNewVaultOfKnowledge I looked at the top comment as suggested, there is no mention or credit given to the young man that lent his hand made guitar for DØVYDAS to play.
@@techlover231 strange. When I look at top comments, there's one with like a thousand likes from the guy who gave him the guitar saying thanks. So yeah, the connection was made.
@@TheNewVaultOfKnowledge OK, that top comment does not show up at my end for whatever reason, thanks for the update!
The dude has musicality oozing from his pores... he is truly gifted.
My guy NEEDS to go on America’s Got Talent! I guarantee he’ll steal the show and win! Nobody would hold a candle to his level of skill!
Yeah, A guy doing noise with his mouth can beat him easily
He Need to loose Hits parents First
He would win the show
You have always inspired me to pull my guitar out and dust it off. This is the last time it gets dusted off. Im not giving up this time!
When talent takes you from a street audience, to a worldwide audience. Thank you.
I saw Prince 3 times and this still brought me to tears! You are gifted!
Hi Becky. I Admired him too and still have NOT listened to Prince purple rain. I don't think I can get though it 💜
Police please let this genius share his gift with those physically and remotely. I am a TH-camr fan from British Columbia, Canada. Unbelievable gift. Thank you so much for sharing.
i know right.. the only one with a problem is the prick in uniform
@@noneyabuiznezz It has nothing to do with the police! It’s the businesses that complain and the police have to respond. If YOU have a problem with that YOU should contact city hall and attend city Commissioner meetings and air your grievances to the people that actually make the ordinances!
Wow! What a passion.What an awesome dude!
Never thought anyone but prince would be able to do this song. Wow!! I believe you captured what tge great one truly felt when he wrote this beautiful song. Very emotional, you did Prince very proud my friend!!
why? how? is this man still playing street corners .... fully enjoyed !
Shush be quiet! Don't tell anyone, he he.
@@Wonderwrench 😂😂😂😂
Maybe he is like some artists who dont do it for the sold out venues but moreso for the...art.
When is time to pay Uncle Sam ….I wish I had work in a corner collecting cash 😒
Apparently he was offered a contract 2weeks ago. Bot sure how that went.
Insane talent right there! The value of that humble guitar just went through Saturn's atmosphere.
This man makes special moments in ordinary days, extraordinary.
Great words , and oh so true .. 👍
My. Gosh man why are you on a corner. I am sitting a yr after you did PURPLE RAIN! I fell in love with it all over again .
That vintage telecaster and this artist had a great one song stand. HOLY SHIT!!!!!!! His facial expression’s tell it all. So damn good!
The sound of a great musician playing a great telecaster makes me cry.
I’m so happy to finally see people surrounding him he deserves it so much
Look at his face, how he's living the emotion, incredible..
This young man's guitar has just been infused with blessings! ♥️
I'm amazed at how quickly he builds the sound through each of the little elements in his gear. Always true to the song AND always his own.
It is unfathomable that this amount of talent can exist in one moment. I have been repeating this loop since 3am yesterday and am transfixed with how it brings out a musical emotion in me for a style I never knew I craved. Thank you sir.
same, i never knew i actually can love this type so muchhhhhhhh
unfathomable ?
comon man
@@igorgotham we will politely ignore Igor ,,,it is unfathomable that you don't see the talent , ,sad.
That solo gave me goosebumps holy fuck
I love seeing these huge crowds gather for you now. As they should…
I think Prince will be looking down and smiling.
Prince loved this for sure
The Fact That He Can Solo Like That Over His Vocals is Astounding!
SIMPLY GENIUS! RIP PRINCE
HE WOULD HAVE BEEN SO PROUD OF YOU! WE ARE!🙏♥️🙏♥️🙏
Is everyone going to just glance over that Dovydas deadlifts 500 lbs !!!! 🤯🤯 A beast in more than one talent!
He's just working out so he can Lift his soon to be HUGE paycheck!!! Heavy lifting There!!!!!! har!
First thing I saw
I can't even begin to tell you the joy and memories that flooded my system hearing this rendition of purple rain. You have earned a fan and can't wait to see how far you go, to the stars my friend to the stars.
That was the best cover of Purple Rain I've ever heard
Truly a moment to behold and burn into your memory
Sounds test, was epic, reminds me when eddy vanhalen would do a sound test. Keep up the awesome work of bringing people together in these troubled times.
Eruption 🧐👌🏻
Police Officer: "Turn it down"
Dovydas: "Yeaaaa... No."
I didn't see a decibel meter in her hand...just flexing her badge
If he has a City issued permit as a street musician.... she can piss off...
@@dbunik44 Karen's work in all professions!
its the restaurant across the street complaining about the noise.. Dovydas posted a picture on instagram explaining that ;)
@@SegoMan 😂😂😂😂😂
Why does this man make me cry. Just discovered him, I'm two songs in and he's hit me twice already.
Oh me too my ManMango
Amen Brother !!!!!
same.!!!
For real! As soon as the first note hit my eyes did some waterfall thing.
That's what happens when you
stir energy from the heart and soul together...
You sure are talented! Knowing all these songs that you play, the beats, their correct cords. Hats off to you!
WOW..Just...wow. If you keep playing "Purple Rain" with that energy and emotion this isn't the last time it's requested. That was amazing Dovydas it really was. Thanks as well Jill for the great video.
I can honestly say I never missed Prince more than when I heard this. RIP.
he played the hell out of that there guitar! nice.
This is something special. Talent beyond anyone I've ever heard.
Dovydas, true showman! played it a hundred times but still plays it like his first time!
So intoxicating watching a musician feeling the music they are creating in the moment 💕
There are times in our lives that we are blessed with talented people like Dovydas pure joy.
