When the guitar said: "WAHWAHWAHWAHWAH", I felt that.
That took me a solid minute but that's good lmfao
Guitar say :Its nut time
Felt like, Almost......cuu.... Inside?
Donald duck entered the chat
And the best part is, it's not even a joke. I really did feel that.
Combing your hair is actually part of the tabs
lmao
Yup. Right there page 2 lmfao
LMAO
Missing notes is more forgivable than missing combs. Bonus points if you do it in front of a fan. Steve Vai gets infinite bonus points just for being himself.
Rofl this comment made my day hahahaha
One of the very few people who've actually completed guitar including all side quests and easter eggs.
Him and satchi.
@@garethchaplin3780 and tony macalpine
Don't forget Tommy Emmanuel either!
i actually lol'd.
If I practiced every single day, 8 hours a day, for the next 3 years… I MIGHT be able to consistently do the thing where he runs a hand through his hair.
LOL!!!!
But can you lick your finger, press it ever so delicately to the string, and then collapse under the power of your own passion? How much practice would that take?
😂😂😂
u are funny...
Hahahahahaha
It's truly incredible. I hope this guitar was 18
LMAO 😂
It was 21
21+ and consensual
💀
hell no. sweet and sixteen.
My brother practiced for hours over years to be like Steve Vai. We put ‘A Tender Surrender’ on his crematorium plaque. He was 21. RIP Mikey.
Sorry for your loss ❤️
🙏😇beautiful song! He absolutely needs no words!! But when he does write words they’re guaranteed to tug those heart strings!! Sorry for the loss..
Sorry for you lost
Rest in peace, i’m sorry for your loss.
rest in peace brother, sorry for your loss
Fifty shreds of Vai
This must be one of the most complete guitar songs ever written…… it literally has everything.
The build up, the crescendo, the end. That is my favorite guitar song ever, and I am a blues kinda dude. Europa on steroids
No slide. Checkmate
Steve Vai. Truly, the Yuri Boyka of guitarrists.
@@danielbueno8474 Scott Atkins and Steve Vai. It is awesome to witness greatness!
@@nmnsaimemark1842 Oh, this guy knows whats up! Well said, brother 🤝
My guitar saw this and is now leaving me for Steve Vai.
David Shaughnessy I don’t blame your guitar
Your guitar is a total slut.

Lol! The comments here are the best!
The guitar smoked a cigarette after this
if it was van Halen, it literally would
😏
They both did lol 😂
I Never laughed so hard at a comment but this one took the cake man.
Seriously, what is with guitar players and sex metaphors, especially on this video, i guys are really weird
My father once told me, "son, you need to find a woman that handles you like steve vai handles the guitar in tender surrender"
Any luck? Maybe you need find a girl and handle her like Vai handles his guitar in Tender Surrender!
You sure he didn't say you ought to handle the woman that way?
That's why Steve Vai is unique, the amount of emotions and passion he put into guitar playing is amazing to watch.
In some parts it looks like he’s possessed, like something just took control of him.
@@mduby7821he’s possessed by the guitarr!!
@@avreellaveen It's a pretty ordinary piece with hints of Garry Moore tribute but far less melodically interesting.
@@NealosMetropolos didn't know TH-cam allowed retards like you to comment. Your internet rights should be revoked
@@NealosMetropolos no need to hate hes still one of the best players ever
This has really inspired me to sell my guitar
Hahahaah
😂😂😂
it inspires me to go play it
😂😂😂😂😂😂
MrMisterMan The joke is Steve’s playing is so good that the guy has lost motivation because his own guitar playing is so bad to compared with Steve’s; leading him to sell his guitar as he has no longer a use for it.
When you watch this in Japan his fingers are blurred out.
Lol

lel
Genius
Dafuk
3:39 is my favorite part, that tapping is absolutely incredible and you can see how really into it he is because his eyes roll back into his head and everything, this guy really is one of the greatest ever
I am so glad went to see him live. He is perfect musician.
During a real live performance, yes. He does stuff similar to this and it's awesome. This particular performance is just a music video. But hey, the effect is more or less the same. Lol.
He was holding his demon in.
Saw this man live 2 days ago. Met him, talked to him. My wife and I got our guitars and other things signed. Being at a Steve Vai concert isnt about "Hearing" or "Seeing" it live. It's an experience. It's about feeling it. Moments where I shed a tear in his performances. Even my wife shed a few tears too. If you're ever wondering if the EVO experience is worth it. It really really is.
Where??
Toronto Canada@@nrsquadvlogs5103
Sounds amazing bro. So glad you have that memory together. If I brohgt my wife to see him she wouldn't give a shit at all. You're lucky dude. Cheers broham 🍻
First of all, that’s beautiful. I guess Steve is like that as both and artist and a person; incredibly smart man, but he clearly feels emotions very deeply. It would make a lot of sense for his concerts to be like that, and even though I’ve never been to one, I’m stunned at the passion and strength he still managed to put into his playing. I’m glad you two had such an amazing experience.
Second of all, you have the coolest wife ever.
Ummm ok thanks for sharing 🙄
Odd...i remember being fully clothed when i started this video...

I cant even play air guitar like this.
AHAHAHAHHAAHHAAHH

Lol
i find it harder to play air guitar tbh
So this is what my guitars watch when I’m not home..
Hahahahah mate so true !
🤣🤣🤣 I'm crying!!!
😂🤣
Sorry for her..
XD
Proof that Steve Vai writes the best lyrics.
I was 15 when I listened to this for the first time… 20 years later, it feels just like the first time!
Thank you,
Steve
Just went through this. I can attest to this statement. \m/
The same thing. Great .. just great!
I'm 15 right now and I just discovered Steve Vai!!
If you listen closely, there's a band in the background too...

@@keithsarty3039 wrong song names? What the fuck are you talking about?
The transition from that insanely eloquent lead back into the foundation melody was amazing. My jaw was dropped the entire time and when the transition happened my head exploded
all the faces he makes, and the way you can tell hes so into the music, it makes it all sm better to me. he knows hes killing it B)
I literally watch this atleast once a day.. I don’t play guitar or anything but this is beyond music.. this is spiritual..
This was when Vai was achieving total clarity. It’s such a rare thing
This is the sign of a man who has truly brought life to an instrument. He's literally put his soul into the thing and made it work
agreed
Just imagine how is guitar players feel watching Vai shred like this
As a guy who's been playing guitar for almost 9 years, trust me when I say this: this IS beyond music. Absolutely surreal.
Steve Vai for many people is the reason to play guitar. And also the reason to quit to play it.
+Camilo Sánchez Same feeling with Joe Pass and jazz guitar..
Joe Pass is pretty cool, but playing gets kinda old. At a certain point, you just wanna tell him to stop playing so much and to calm down.
Joe Pass is the beer of music; having a cold one after a nice day of work is really nice, but having one every time you come back home just gets really old and it looses its taste.
Jake Fromtoronto
Its more like the amount of knowledge of your instrument and the music fondations and how you use it, than the kind of music itself.
He is not bad. Stop kissing ass. Learn to advance in life with the excess of blowjobs of any kind. Always say the truth.
All I can say to this, is awesome:)
This is the best guitar recording on all of youtube.
His blend of feeling and technique is second to none
There should NOT be a dislike button for this damn video. This is pure art.
love how he finds the song easier to handle than his hair
LOL
You made my day
It's funny, but he over does it, especially at 4:00. It'd be way cooler if he didn't do that. It solidifies all his other expressions as just some act instead of authentic. The solo itself is just about the best one humanity ever produced.
LOL
Michael James Kugel 😃Yes I KNOW, YOUR RIGHT, and I MUST AGREE!
the guitar just got vai-olated
This is an under appreciated comment right here lol
Oh my...THAT was clever...lol
I'm am soooo gonna use this joke...
damnm right man damn right
@@theemerdareloth
Best comment I've seen on one of his videos lmao!
the lick at 3:10 is absolutely mystical, Steve you’re a guitarist sent from heaven!!
I believe he plays for God but we get to listen.
How tf did he even come up with that lmao
It’s been almost 20 years and I still get the chills playing this tune… it’s just flawless
So this is how baby guitars are made.
underrated
Lol
SuperKinahead 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤟🤟🤟
just the real good ones

First time listening to Steve Vai.........I only have one thing to say.....WOW!!
Welcome to the world of fantasy
I WISH I could go back in time and listen to this for the first time again
so now porn is allowed on youtube?
Exactly what I was thinking that must be some kind of hole In the back for his, oh god, I won't say it.

I’ve never nutted harder😂😂
He fucked the shit out of that guitar..........and my ears
I don't watch this around my guitar.
Hahahahaha I'm dead bro omg
I dont want her running off with another guitarist
Haha
Good one
that's hilarious! XD
the amount of joy this man has while playing makes is so cool to see
I think I'm pregnant
You make me laugh😂
It's mine
😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
That’s probably the closest explanation to what this song makes you feel, the guy’s literally fucking the guitar from it’s melodies
His facial expressions when he hits those high-pitched bends are priceless
That guitar was savagely "Vai-olated"...
gross
Get out
lol
Jajajajaja 🤣
Lmaoooo
The best guitar live performence i ever seen in my hole life. PERFECT
coz it's not live. i've never seen a live version come anywhere close to the studio version. there's always some sloppiness that creeps in. this one sounds exactly like the studio version
@@rondg2ты открыл нам всем глаза 😮
I’m coming back to this video for 4 years and because of it I need to thank Steve:
“Steve thanks, after very hard practice, I’m proud to say; I’ve mastered my hand-combing technique”
Now onto the guitar.
Proud of you
Every girl deserves a guy who touches her the way Vai touches his guitar
I was thinking the same thing. Watching him play is like he’s making love to the guitar. Incredible
FlewPrettyGood it’s now called touching ur girl the vai way she’ll scream so hard it will sound like this song😂😂
Well, I suggest gils stop getting "@#*&%" in bathroom, toilet stalls. That might help.
Max Dominate what the fuck lmao
Angel this is tru, only the best
whenever steve vai goes for shopping at guitar center ... the guitars come up in a line for auditions
In a backroom with a casting couch?
They probably run away after seeing this.
If you play guitar and have never listened to Alien Love Secrets, you are in for a real treat. Steve Vai evokes so much emotion and intensity in his playing, pushing the envelope of what is possible to
Steve is gonna have a ukulele after 9 months.
More like a Guitarlele.
lolololo
Ok this comment is WHOLESOME and Funny af
LOLOLOLOL.....
The guitar actually gave birth the other day. It was healthy triplets; two violas and a ukulele.
You know you're shredding when you're eyes start rolling back in your head, you're making weird faces, and you're obsessive compulsively styling your hair every 30 seconds while maintaining perfect shredding.
Lol
One of the benefits of age - you don't need to style your hair anymore.
Which is the real comment
BEST OOMMENT EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’ve never reached the styling your hair stage, so I guess I’ve not quite achieved my pinnacle shred yet, but I’ll keep working on it lmao.
Every time I watch/listen to this, I am amazed. Steve Vai looks like he's just screwing around while ripping incredible lines. it's a joy!
I watch this several times a year. Every time, it is like the 1st time I am hearing it. Just incredible.
I don't know what's more epic, the music or the comment section :)
Must we know?
Of course the song, what is wrong with you? Fuck the comments.
The music is not live though. The audio aligns perfectly note-for-note with the record.

This is spiritual ❤
My wife came home as I was watching this, I had to quickly switch over to porn so she wouldn’t catch me

I don't get it
@@goncalobaia1574 It would normally be the other way around, but since it's our sugar daddy stevie, that's just how it is.
That made me laugh out loud!! Lol

The transition from clean to distortion is perfect
How do you think he does it, Eddie?
@@willwallz quizá golpeo sin mucho ataque la octava y en eso cambio a clean
i mean, what you expect??
@@willwallzmaybe a little atomic punk action
Almost like he's to perfect...
Just epic. That's the only word.

This is true yes

HAHAHAHAHA I love you man XD
I almost choke on this.

Hahahahahaahha 😂😂😂😂😂😂
LMAO
He takes me to a fantasy world with his skills.
I can feel his emotions while playing the guitar.
this man knows what hes doing 😭my god steve
I like when he corrects hair at 3:05 - 3:10 and stretched tremolo down on the guitar and it looks very cool and tricky ,what can I say he's genius ....
01aleph
do you know what a tremolo is on a guitar?
not gonna lie, lol thats when it gets kinda good, good call
He's been correcting a lot of stuff *throughout* the song if you observe well, n those expressions are devouring the hell outta that guitar! Insane!
He's actually miming here, he explains it on the commentary for the love secrets dvd. Still pretty impressive miming though!
This comment section just killed me I can’t stop laughing and questioning, also apparently if you watch this video it doesn’t matter if you are a guy or girl your now pregnant
i'm a straight dude but man, i want to be that guitar
Raymond Rocha yeah but no one fingers a guitar like steve vai😏
I’m only about to give birth to an abdominal shit demon.
You're**
😂🤣
This solo is still INSANE. like, every aspect of it is insane. Steve Vai was my biggest inspiration when I started out 15 years ago and this is a solid reminder why.
Every style one song, been years since I've jammed this. Just unbelievably done. Amazing always.
His fingers are longer than my life
Holy shit. That is very long life you talkin there mate.
his hands are made for guitar
LOL
Hahahaha shit
He had the webbing between his fingers surgically removed for more range of motion.
He is not playing with his guitar, he's making love to his guitar
+Hashed Prod. He admitted he sleeps with EVO sometimes he said it has both a whammy bar and an input jack.
+Hashed Prod. to be less metaphoric 3:30
+Hashed Prod. BUT, he wasnt playing
+Hashed Prod. Making love stops around 2:00, after that is pure molesting in front of a crowd ;)
HAHAHAHA. True
Já faz mais de 4 anos que eu não paro de ouvir essa música, todos os anos ouço repentinas vezes. Simplesmente perfeito.
Those fingers are blessed.
This vid has the best comments section ever!!
ikr
Hope the guitar is at least 18
Look up r Kelly ignition remix, the comments are fucking hilarious
John Mayer playing neon is a good one too but I agree this one's the best
I was thinking the same hahaha
I’m 73 and have played guitar for over 50 years. I can always depend on a few guitarists to show me something new and Steve is one of them. Thank you, Steve for the inspiration. Peace
Heyy Timmm, look for Guthrie Govan, the grand master of the guitar hahaha
@@santehhh buckethead is also another virtuoso that i constantly have on…
Hey Tim iv been playing for along time as well, not the big 50 though, but my hair was a different colour when I started and there was a lot more of it ,I was wondering have you ever had times when you have put it down for a while and if so how long did you NOT play for.
@@boyharmon357 Yes I have put it down. Not because I tired of playing, but because it refreshes my mind. I know it may seem like a long time, but I find that if I take a couple of months away from playing…my playing and mind connection with my guitar improves. I don’t sit idly and do nothing. I tend to listen to a lot of music and explore new avenues of music. For instance, I listened to Gojira and learned their music. Didn’t play, but actually tried to see where they were going musically along with other bands in the Metal genre. I hope this helps you to spend some time not playing. I won’t tell you how long not to play. But try to at least take three or four weeks off. I think you will come back wanting to play refreshed. Peace
@@Wilrizen48 thanks Tim yeah I haven't picked up my guitar for over a week now which is a long time for me ,and I'm not bothered by it ,and like you I do like to listen to music all different kinds , not to big on rap though, good to know that others have done the same and gone back,cheers
Simply perfect! 👌🏻
How does you even write something like this? It's pure soul connection, no other explanation
After 5 years of training I was only able to play this song with my mouth. Thanks steve.. 😭
For the record, he doesn't play the guitar live in this video. Line it up with the recording, especially the ending, it lines up perfectly.
If you can sing it you can play it! So they say 😂😂😂
LOL ... one of the hilarious comment of all .. :D
I feel you bruh!😂😂
i still missed some notes withmu mouth

Beautiful composition ! Steve is an amazing musician ! Great performance !!!
Steve is a genius. He's not just on another planet as far as creativity, composition and technique goes, he's in a different universe entirely. He is a true virtuoso player. It's no point comparing him to anyone else because he's in a class by himself. So much expression in this it's insane. What a remarkable feeling it must be to be able to spontaneously play what you here in your head. Thanks for being so amazing. You're an inspiration to us all.
He's absolutely great and it's a marvellous, expressive an touching solo but I don't think it's as spontaneous as you think. Just compare it with some live recordings. The solo is balanced, composed, built up well. For spontaneous genious check out some improvisations from Guthrie Govan.
joe satriani does the same thing for me
I watch all of your tutorials!! Thanks for being a great instructor!
He is absolutely astonishing. No other guitarist compares to him in terms of skill in my opinion. I saw him live in glasgow and he's just as amazing as they say, even more so when you're so close to him (it was a very small venue) it was the first show of the passion and warfare 25th anniversary tour and the first time he played the whole album through and it was like watching a god. To me he's the greatest guitarist of all time and my absolute favourite...unquestionably
