      Doesn't matter when it came out, or shouldn't. I get that it does for many people which is why you made the comment, but it's an all time great riff as it is

But it's so good, and they seem to have so much fun playing that I really enjoy watching these even though I can't seem to understand with them teaching lol.

      Yeah these lessons aren't for beginners. They dont teach the songs note by note. but if you have some experience you can make out what they play by looking at the position of their hand on the fretboard.
