Before clicking play, I said to myself: "No one can convincingly arrange this spine-tinglingly beautiful song for guitar, let alone play it movingly." Thanks for making me eat my words, Antoine. Indigestion was never so welcome.
For real I was not expecting that level of detail. That vocoder had a total shitload of harmonies and tones going on at once but this did a pretty amazing job of replicating that.
lol, i tried playing this song several times and got far. always wondered what kind of song this is, and today i checked out the original first time :D thats why it sounded like "not a guitar song" to me.
... So, the main theme of this song is just Adel's song "someone like you" instrumental version, listen carefully...😅 Most people like this song because of that and they even know this hahha
It's amazing to me that of all the arrangements of this song aside form Imogen herself. The only one that captures anything close to the emotion and feeling of the original is this instrumental. Countless choirs from high school to universities and none of them understand the simple beauty of timing.
Antoine is really playing the dynamics of that guitar. It's an amazingly responsive instrument. The sound is grand! And it's mind-blowing the way Antoine gets every last bit of nuance out of it. This is supernatural brilliance!
Charlee Murphee A vocoder is operated via an audio track. The vocal track is processed through the vocoder synth, so I can understand how one could interpret it either way - as a synth or as layered vocals. Though it's not pure vocal looping, you're still always hearing the vocal signal come through at all times. Vocoders are awesome like that.
Its said that the primary characteristic of a great work of art is, that it can lend itself to interpretation and re-interpretation in another medium or instrument in such a way that the original version is surpassed. As a guitarist, I started out marveling at ADs technique and musicality. But eventually that palls, and you are left with Imogen;s self belief and technical ability to make the electonics convey emotions that AD can recreate with an acoustic instrument.
That's like a hearing a different instrument, I've never seen a guitar played this way, so many small finesses that change the way it plays, the bending of both tone and pitch, the abrupt palming while single notes ring out etc. Beautifully played!
this is still after 10 years one of the most masterful arrangements on acoustic guitar i have heard in my lifetime , 20 years of my life to listening to all forms of music and i come back to this often and it blows my mind every time.
It's guys like you that make me want to put my guitar in the case and bury it in the back yard. This is truly stellar. Your talent is beyond us all!! Anyone that dislikes this is a waste of air.
I cried when I heard this.....it was me and my fiancè's song that we met with.....so good man...thanks a bunch for letting me remember the best moment of my life =^×^=
My very favorite Imogen Heap song. The way you were able to translate the emotional content of her acapella performance to the guitar is truly amazing. Just like the original does every time, it brought me to tears. Bravo.
whenever I found a great guitarist on youtube, someone who truly is a master of the instrument and who can pour his soul into the music he is playing, and when said guitar is recorded perfectly... well then I know I'm watching a video on the Candyrat Records channel.
So beautiful! It's insane. I have spent my career making covers. There is no equivalent to this from anybody. What a beautiful thing to be on the planet at the same time as Antoine.
Fun fact- he’s actually playing the strings above the nut. Listen to the end of the original; there’s a “twinkly, wind-chime-y” synth pad to give a bit of ambience, and that’s what Antoine simulated with playing above the nut.
Oh my god. This brought me to tears. My mind started to drift away, lost in the beautiful composition, thinking about life and death, as the resonating sound of beautifully open vibrating strings provided the Soundscapes to my epiphany.
It's actually brilliant that he does this. Listen to Imogen's original recording. At the very end, you can hear these sort of chimes way back in the mix. That's what he's emulating. It's wonderful.
The technical skill, perfect harmonics and intonation on a song that's already ridiculously challenging for VOCAL musicians..... done on guitar.. An absolute masterclass of musical understanding, creativity, and skill. From 2:24 until the end... the single most skillful piece of music in the history of mankind. It is absolutely perfectly performed on guitar that 99% of people fail to get right by simply singing.
Hey Zack, it's D-A-E-Ab-A-E (basically an A5maj7 chord with D in Bass oder Dsus2/4add9 whatever) but I would recommend you to tune it down one step to C-G-D-Gb-G-D and use a capo on 2nd fret so your D or G-String won't snap. good luck!
I know it's a bit late, but a great tip for tuning to higher tunings that risk snapping strings is to do a very small turn downwards first, before going up just a tad more. So think of it as one step down to go two steps up. It helps the strings take the progressive tension, rather than going straight into tuning higher (you do this for every single turn of the tuning peg, not just the first). And obviously you do it as slowly, steadily and consistently as possible. Hopefully it'll help in the future. And of course if your strings are still struggling, but you often use/want to use higher tunings, you can always change the gauge of the strings you use to ones that are more suited to taking the higher tension. Though for the tuning of this song a medium-range gauge should be fine (it might be an issue of string quality - Ernie Ball and Elixir are the only string brands most fingerstyle guitarists bother with). Happy playing everybody.
I just found this site to tune the guitar with D A E Ab A E. Select "custom tuning" and you can enter the notes you want. I'm not working for them, it's just the only one I found to do a custom tuning. This song is hard but so interesting to learn. www2.fender.com/experience/online-guitar-tuner/
Can anyone tell me how Antoine Dufour or any other finger-style artists figure out the tuning for the song before writing it? This cover of 'Hide and Seek' would be a good example, how did he figure out each individual string? There are so many combinations you can have which confuses me. The tuning for this song is D A E G# A E by the way!
I would bet that the tuning evolves early on, but not necessarily before. I wouldn't consider myself on Dufour or the likes level, so I am only guessing what someone of that caliber would do haha
When transposing onto guitar, first its good to locate the lowest note and tune your low E to that, from listening to the song then we can establish it's key and mode. This song is in D lydian mode, so you can basically tune your strings around that. Start with tuning the strings to the closest note in the scale/mode and then experiment to get the different chord shapes for the many chord variants. Hope that helps
Warren Turner It's really simple- just tune based by what you like, and follow your ear. A lot of people will throw theory at you- which is nice but confusing if you don't know it. They are simply trying to explain in technical/visual terms on how to follow your ear. Just tune to what sounds interesting, or good to you- you figure out what tuning after.
What exactly is that technique he uses at 2:29 (and many other parts of the song)? I can hear the effect, but how does that motion accomplish the effect? Is it a microphone thing? What is the technique called?
He's using his arm to push in and bend the wood top which causes the bridge to "stretch" the strings in and out very slightly, creating a type of vibrato. Basically the same effect a tremolo bar creates on an electric guitar.
Jake East Thanks for the information - very clear explanation. That makes sense. I would also like to say how pleased I am to have this question answered so promptly and thoroughly. Seriously, it's just amazing how that works this day and age. So cool!
it's kind of like having a whammy bar, nonetheless. it pushes the neck away from the body of the guitar, stretching the strings more, like Jake said. :D
You do not need a lot of force to hear the effect, but the more you do the more you stretch the strings (or reduce the tension on the strings if you do it the other way around) and the more of a change in pitch you get. There is no need to be overly cautious either, the neck of the guitar is a sturdy thing and can handle quite a bit.
omg... would love to hear this in a pub. just you, a pint and distant, warm memories. wow! well done sir. he captured ALL the little nuances of the original! maintaining those harmonics at the end while playing everything else... superb.
There's something off about the first chord on the "sa-aay" section of the chorus. Mmm, whatcha *saa*-aay. I'm not up to speed on my terminology, but I think the chord is either a D maj or an A maj chord than what you played (a diminished chord?)
Jesse Clark I don't think its an error in pitches necessarily. I think It might be an issue with parallel intervals (5ths) between the top part and the melody. The chords should be inverted differently to avoid that. Otherwise excellent work.
Jesse Clark he's adding a lot of Maj7 and Maj9 to these chords. Also the fact that his tuning is modal means that he's trying to incorporate as many common tone connections between changes. Also he's playing around with the leading tone in many chords, especially on the subdominant making that #11(add9) chord.
Mason is right. He's got a note above the melody at that point which should be an octave lower to recreate the same original voicings of the inversion. There is no A dim.
+Jesse Clark I think that was intentional? Anyway I think if possible he actually IMPROVED that section of the song. In his version you can hear the little descending c# b a that gets kind of lost in the vocodering...
The hardest part of commenting on music is that I have no musical background so I have absolutely no tools to use to critique or compliment what I just heard. It was really good, a nice interpretation, it doesn't flow in some areas as the original does, which for some bizarre reason made me wary, but it was a beautiful rendition.
This makes me tear up every time not sure why, makes me think of loved ones gone away and days past but beautiful too.. God bless and help all hurting people.
One of the most inspirational artists in the WORLD! Choreographing to this man's sensitivity and unbelievable musicality has been a true gift in my world!
This is one of those songs where the player makes it a lot more enjoyable, a very well done job. You can just see the emotion in his eyes and the passion he puts into this song and that's what really makes me like this song.
+chyo okya I first heard that song on an episode of CSI: Miami(yeah, i know lol). they solved a tough and very sad case and the closing shots were of the victims being zipped up in body bags and thats when they played the song. Im pretty sure Im going to hear this as soundtrack when I die and my life flashes before my eyes.
Thank you to youtube for continuing to recommend this video for me now and then. I am still mostly speechless watching him play this song this way. Even after the 100th time seeing the video.
I'm glad I'm not the only one. The original did it, a euphonium version I saw did it, and this one sealed the deal. There's something mystical about this song!
This the intersection of technical mastery and absolute truth........Antoine, we are lucky to hear your stories bro, thank you so much for your talent, ambition and hard work.
i think you meant "im sorry midimorphosis, you obviously making joke and im a fucking idiot for not noticing since this song is associated with jason derulo who says his own name in every fucking song"
Obviously a labor of love. You really re-created Imogen's song. WOW! Excellent use of harmonics, it gave a feeling like I was hearing her singing. That was totally amazing. Huge admiration to you, and thank you for being true to the song. You're a true artist, sculpting with your hands on the guitar.
absolutely beautiful playing, this why i fell in love with the guitar. the tremolo effect is caused when the player pulls on the body of the guitar which affects the tension of the strings which is basically the neck of the guitar bending. this guy is amazing

... So, the main theme of this song is just Adel's song "someone like you" instrumental version, listen carefully...😅 Most people like this song because of that and they even know this hahha
It's amazing to me that of all the arrangements of this song aside form Imogen herself. The only one that captures anything close to the emotion and feeling of the original is this instrumental. Countless choirs from high school to universities and none of them understand the simple beauty of timing.

haha, sounds about right
Would be better to be in a room with him listening
Stephen Sheriff I love when a player is refined to a point of seemingly considering every detail of the note they are playing. It is incredible.
The chord played at 1:10 that he lets ring out is unbelievable. Sends shivers down my spine.
Can't believe that this masterpiece is 10 years old already! Feels like it was just yesterday when it released. Still gives me shivers.
Just found this masterpiece 13 years later, but good thing that i've found it. So beautiful
Stunning composition, man. Wow...every note of entire original song incorporated. Even vocals? Insane. I bow.
The original was nothing but vocals: layers and layers of them.
Charlee Murphee A vocoder is operated via an audio track. The vocal track is processed through the vocoder synth, so I can understand how one could interpret it either way - as a synth or as layered vocals. Though it's not pure vocal looping, you're still always hearing the vocal signal come through at all times. Vocoders are awesome like that.
What makes it beautiful though is that for a vocoder you still have to sing in key, otherwise the layering goes (horribly) wrong.
well if you keep singing into the vocoder at a steady pitch without fluctuating your voice, in most cases it tracks and layers well
+Charlee Murphee but she actually sang the song with a chorus... it was absolutely amazing...
I hope Imogen has or will soon congratulate this man. Wonderful rendition. So excellently executed.
Stunning.
beautiful!
So beautiful. Never thought this could be played on a guitar
Beckie Jane Brown holy crap it’s Beckie, i remember seeing your TH-cam channel a few years ago. Small TH-cam, eh

True, I have seen it also and it is very good too but not Antoine Dufour
What an absolutely beautiful, warm sounding guitar.
ugh, I knew tuning my guitar to play this was going to pop a string, and sure enough...
Matthew Chovanec Hey man you know the tuning . would you be willing to share?
Hey Zack, it's D-A-E-Ab-A-E (basically an A5maj7 chord with D in Bass oder Dsus2/4add9 whatever) but I would recommend you to tune it down one step to C-G-D-Gb-G-D and use a capo on 2nd fret so your D or G-String won't snap. good luck!

Huge admiration to you, and thank you for being true to the song. You're a true artist, sculpting with your hands on the guitar.
I find that Heap's song unbelievably amazing. I find it even more amazing that Dufour was able to transcribe and execute it so beautifully on guitar!
I am huge fan of Imogen, it's terrific how you stay true to the original's essence throughout the music. Thank you!
absolutely beautiful playing, this why i fell in love with the guitar. the tremolo effect is caused when the player pulls on the body of the guitar which affects the tension of the strings which is basically the neck of the guitar bending. this guy is amazing
Every once and awhile I stop by here to make sure I still have feelings. Great arrangment!
Not only is the song arranged amazingly.
That guitar sounds amazing as well !
i come back to this video atleast once a month, i honestly reckon this is the best thing to ever come out of a guitar
Nothing short of brilliantly genius! even how he adds in "you wont catch me around here" , i mean its spot on, you sound awesome!
How do you exist. This is the most incredible thing I've ever seen done with a guitar.
You play with such incredible, evident emotion. I love watching, but I could cry if I simply have my eyes closed while listening.
