Just going based on his tone, he’s obviously a jazz cat. Which means he has a lot of experience with difficult chord shapes and identifying them. It’s completely possible to be this quick learning by ear. This is why theory is so important to know, it helps a ton when it comes to learning things by ear
@@phannathornkoabkaew oh I do. I know enough to be aware that music theory isn't a magic phlebotinum that grants you the ability to earplay complicated music easily. For piano it's possible, but for guitar, you still have to learn the picking techniques and the left hand positions to play it correctly. So no, this is not possible to learn in under 60 seconds. Try harder next time.
@@shirai9563 really? So you can prove that anyone who has never ever listened to this song, or any other Polyphia song, can learn this by ear in under 60 seconds?
How long you've played? Btw, I also know the pain. I also spent 3 days to learn the first 30 seconds of playing god by Polyphia and that dude just learned it in 60 secs 💀 Btw, I've been playing guitar for roughly 3 months now
I think most of the comments here lack insight. As someone with a music degree, my opinion is that this is impressive, but not extremely difficult for a trained musician. For all I know it could be fake, as a lot of videos are, but I don't see the need to jump to that conclusions
And this part he played was just moving shapes which you can easily hear if u play for a long time, melodies was easy between shapes, u can see he tried like three different ways how to slide those, just grap your guitar and go learn somg by ear haha, and he played a lot based on how quick he grap those shapes, it doesnt matter if u know the song or not 🤟
@@satriyo6731 it honestly is tho he’s probably listened to this multiple times and kinda just does the whole faking thing I’d believe it if I saw him do a random song live
as a guitarist i can guarantee you its pre rehearsed. the way he faked by try to figure out the chord progression but he already played the first melody correctly it showed how fake this video can be. its much easier to learn chord progression by ear immediately instead of melody.
@@hinshbergh856 You are either not a guitarist or a rookie one if you believe figuring out the melody is harder than figuring out the chord progression Figuring out the melody is literally the foundation of playing by ear
He wont ever. Because its fake like literally everything on youtube today. But it will get viewers and the more unbelievable the content the more comments they get. Welcome to modern promotion.
This is true musicianship, holy shit, dudes really out here figuring out riffs by ear people struggle to learn with tabs and using a tuning said band don't even use nonetheless. Fuck yeah man, got my sub!
@arthurdurham It could be fake I have no idea but no it's not impossible to be this well ear trained, many musicians are. At the start of the video you can see him finding the single note melody and then finding triads to fit it, and then turning those triads into full barre chords. He's also not playing it exactly like the song just 'close enough' to it, so idk I believe it's real
He would if it wasn’t the easiest song in the world to play. Polyp how is impressive, anyone can learn a nirvana song quick if they just put 10 mins into it
i know it's possible if you're mad skilled, but it would've been at least a little bit off or improvised if it was 100% on the spot but would've had the same feel at least, which is why I think you've done this at least a little beforehand but good job anyways XD
So obviously he’s listened enough that he’s pre registered the chord progressions but it’s still fucking insane that he can get the melody and those intricacies so easily
I spent my whole life learning songs by ear and supplementing with tabs too. It's awesome to see someone out there that is a freak of nature like me lol

Yeah I’m going to have to say this one was the least convincing. Just listen to 0:21 a few times, he begins playing the matching chord literally before the I recorded chord has finished being played.
You’re a skilled guitarist, and I get that this is your thing to differentiate - but there is NO way you learn these in 60 seconds by ear Let me write a lick, send it you and you learn it live in 60 seconds, you keen? Put an end to it once and for all 😂
Stfu. He is learning possibly the most complicated bands song and your commenting about tuning. Could it be staged? Sure. It’s still impressive tho. Show me a vid of you playing it that well
wdym, the song is in c sharp standard so usually it starts around the ninth fret. But in the video the guy is starting near the 3rd fret. he is in standard tuning, not c sharp standard
@@deanzo4964 the last 3 albums had mostly standard tuning but their songs on Muse, and Inspire are all Drop D, and bits of NLND had drop D like Bad, Rich Kids, and So Strange
First you need to figure out the key and then chord progression,but you must know reharmonization to recognize the passing chords and then chord embellishments if needed,melody of the song.This is normal to a musician that has a lot of knowledge about music theory.
all seems legit other than hitting that 4th fret bar chord before it came in in the song. could easily argue that it was a logical progression so who knows
I love watching someone who's clearly practiced this in advance and pretending they havent for likes. Its obvious at many points when he fingers chords he supposedly hasn't heard yet in the song.
Stop hating. You got on TH-cam sports and went into this video comment section to be hurtful for no reason. Especially since this is him actually learning it by ear.
he didn’t know it, after playing guitar for so long you know almost all of the notes and what they sound like (roughly) him playing random stuff at first is him trying to find the key of the song and it’s chords and once he figures it out he can start putting things together
You should be a street magician or is it performer? Either way very nice and that’s not easy to do. I would impossible magic to earn it by ear in under 6l seconds with a first listen while 0laying. Very very very very very very impressive
Learn smoke on the water
Thats a tough challenge
Nah too hard
@@1egit_exefr.

Theory is more important than people realize. And jazz chords are hard to play but when you learn them it's so worth it and easy.
Most.of these guys already learned most and act like they dont know anything 😂
I need to gain this ability
to fake videos ? you rly think he didnt try to play it before ? :D

Because it’s not
It's all about finding the root
@@Lovell93once I got the root. It’s over. Until then, not happening ☠️
i can't believe people think this is real
its called learning as much as he could prior
and then playing it off on a vid as if he is learning on the spot
The tone of this guitar is so awesome to me
SO BASICALLY I spent days learning the entire riff and this dude almost made it under 60secs.💀

I think he is a BIT above that skill level I have been playing for a year and a half and learnt drain you by ear in around 4 minutes
You are right. It is an easy song to play but I think it would be cool because I enjoy that song. That’s why I requested it
Damn this is a really cool jazz like version of it, i guess I need to learn another version of this song now

@nongthanhtruc7900 he defiantly can. Look at him playing for real. He is actually a savant. Like for real.
He’s actually a legitimate jazz professional. I think most people whom have attended a conservatory can do this type of thing.
So many folks don't understand that top level musicians are able to pick up anything, pretty much right away.
Yo that guitar is clean
Honestly really good for 60 secs
Bro is like the friend who says he didnt study anything and writes everything in exams
Really nice guitar, which one is it
Just finished learning it myself, want to see you try “going to california” -led zeppelin
