Now this is for the ones who thinks that rock and metal is only noise and screaming... Rock is melody, rythmn and pure harmony..... Great job man, just fantastic!!!
Those are just the ignorant people. Ignorance is bliss
The only people who think/say that are the ppl who have never acc tried to listen to metal or have just heard some metalcore bullshit
Even if metal sounds like noise sometimes it's still made from heart, soul and passion and not by a software.
ok, but in this particular case I would say that it's the song that lends itself to an acoustic version... Not all rock and metal music lends itself to melodic harmonies... I don't think "Disposable Heroes" or "Battery" or the vast majority of Metallica's compositions sound the same way on a classical guitar. This does not mean, however, that it is noise for those who do not appreciate...
It happens. People who listened to metal and love it is because we have the capacity to hear each instrument very well, this also includes the main singer and the other singers as a backup. Other people don't identify them like we do
This proves that Fade to Black isn't just a beautiful metal song, it's a beautiful song full stop no matter what genre or style it's played in. Hats off to you
Incredible! Even this superlative fails to capture the grandeur of what this guy does! He does 2 guitar parts, vocal parts, percussion AND switches tuning, all while putting his own style, while retaining the heart of the song. Blew my mind, friend! I know it's not done anymore these days, but my lighter is in the air for you!
very vERy well put gounderus . this was an honest tribute from one artist to t h e artists . its done all the time in the classical world , and it was f . . . king excellent here too . I'mgonnaput my lighter in the air
gounderus if you like him look up Igor Presnyakov (sorry if I spelled it wrong) but he's just as amazing, if not better.
gounderus as a fellow appreciator your comment is amazing. thanks for the time and thought
Matt LeMasters spelt it right bud! He's one of my favourites too!
I know I'm a bit late, but if you guys still read this, also look up Thomas Zwijsen and Ben Woods. They do this stuff on classical / flamenco guitars. Thomas even teaches his stuff on his homepage
The 594 dislikes are the people who tried to master the acoustic like this guy but failed.
Probably
No. They're probably because this isn't "fingerstyle" like the title says!
@@jojomoon2421 I watched a different video.
Or maybe they just don't like the song Maybe did you ever think about that not everybody likes what you like buddy😁
Oh I love it. He is amazing. But I gave it a thumbs down because I just Fucking felt like it
Finger style: translation. I can play James guitar parts Kirks guitar parts and James vocal melody on one guitar!
Bravo!! well done mate, sounds great!!!!
Aaand lars drums ! Jajajaj
Spinvilchy don’t forget Lars drum 🥁 film a few times as well.
I knew this would be red hot after the intro solo
My rule of thumb...the further heavy metal is from pop, the closer it is to classical
Theres actually scientific studies that support this. People who listen to metal, especially melodic metal and people who listen to classical area more able to pick out the nuances within the moving parts within the music.
Wilhelm Richard Wagner - Metal God
Metallica is not even heavy metal dude. heavy metal is something else, like Ratt for example, or Scorpions
@@yairvsync metalica is heavier than those you mentioned.
It helps that Cliff brought a *huge* classical influence to the band. (Believe it or not).
See, Pop music? This is what real effort into music looks and sounds like.
Edit: I made this comment years ago and it's pure cringe, carry on with your day
Suer man just stop.
Suer man fuck off dude
DXPBladez 😁
+blacktieaffair
Guess I'm a fuckboy, also:
*Can't
*You were
*You're
And a plethora of others that I can't be arsed to correct.
Also, I find that your comment is quite ironic. You must have some pretty bad insecurities to tell someone to kill themselves.
Ironic on one of the most overrated rock bands ever though.
What possible reason could 594 people have for disliking this beautiful rendition of an all time classic song?!?!
The same people who were fighting over toilet paper.
Louis Cypher
Cause they are full of shit
Those are the people that think anything after 91 is great😆🎶🎸🎹🎼
3:33 to 3:46 Is absolutely beautiful.
ya man those harmonics were perfect. what a beautiful way to play that song. loved it
ShortFingeredShreder epic
more like 0:00 to 5:10
I though the full vídeo was absolutely beatiful
But you heard the rest right...?
The 415 people who thumbs down'ed this clearly have no taste in music, or no appreciation for a work of art. This is AWESOME. You're an inspiration to all of us musicians. Think I'll go practice until my fingers are bleeding.
2 guitar parts simultaneously...The true measure of skill, precision, and time
How can anyone dislike this ?? ....it’s absolute brilliance !!
Moving the capo mid-song.. I have to give you props for that. Nice. :)
Christopher Rueber yeah i played an watch players for years an never seen before
Christopher Rueber world's smoothest capo transition
Yeah, total "wtf?"...but it worked well!
Watch Luca stragnoli - Sweet child o mind. youll be blown away. 2 guitar and 4 capo
@@mickydix I started watching that video, and I was in such awe of his incredible skills that I completely forgot why I was even there in the first place. Then came the epic capo switch mid-song.
The poise, the grace, the subtlety of the fingers. Mindblowing 🔥
holy shit, he's playing both guitar parts at the same time! and also playing the vocal melody! throwing in some percussion... wow.
Usually this is called FINGERSTYLE Arrangement
I do not say this lightly; this may be the best guitar cover I have ever heard. Absolutely outstanding!
Too good. Words can't describe.
30 year Metallica fan here. Fade to Black is one of my all time favs and you absolutely crushed it. Thanks so much! So rad to watch.
Life, it seems, will fade away
Drifting further every day
Getting lost within myself
Nothing matters, no one else
I have lost the will to live
simply nothing more to give
There is nothing more for meeee
I NEED THE THE END TO SET ME FREEEEEEEAAAA
No one but me can save myself but it's too late.....
Now I can"t think, think why I should even try!
Yesterday seems as though it never existed....
Death greets me warm, Now I will just say goodbye! ... Goodbye! \m/
***REPEAT***
Things wasn't use to be
Missing one side of me
Huh, I was always partial to
Emptiness is filling me,
To the point of agony,
Growing darkness taking dawn,
I was me but now he's gone.
I have listened to Kelly's version for years now. His fingerstyle is clean and cord choice is excellent. Classically trained is the way to go
Песня, которая трогает душу ) Группа генильная, а исполнитель кавера, молодец
молодец это ещё мало сказано
Русских в топ! :)
Автор молодец!
dalv555 если бы еще ноты этого варианта выложил, был бы вообще молодец! :)

Акустическая Металлика в хорошем исполнении просто божественна.👍
I belive i started following you since i found this video in 2013. Since that, you never stopped to impressed me. You have alot of talent. Listening to you is a real pleasure.
Excelso aparato erudito e masgistral apresentação kelly Valleau. Parabéns.
noooooooo I want to see that solo,is awesome.
How can you play lead,bass,drum, vocal and solo at the same time? So relaxing to listen you. Incredible...👍
From which planet is he coming? .... I just can't believe what I heard .... O_O !!???!!!
And it seems so simple.... unbelievable.... one of the best acoustic guitar "coverer" ever !!!
This is beyond phenomenal. My favorite Metallica song. I think I'll play it 19 more times before I go to bed!!! Great rendition. My compliments to the artist.
Hadn't I seen it, I wouldn't have believed it was played by a human being. God listens to performances like this everyday in heaven. I almost stood up here to clap my hands.
Thumbs up, added to favorites.
Diego Ambrosio sorry buddy. God ain’t real. Funny how we’ve discovered fossils hundreds of millions years old. Yet haven’t found one bone from the characters in the Bible. Think about it for a moment
Blake Oshag dude why the fuck would you say that. No one cares, let them believe what they want to believe. This is coming from an aethiest btw.
"It's too perfect." That is the only gripe I've ever been able to come up with regarding your playing.
Everything you play is a certified masterpiece, and the arrangements you come up with are gorgeous.
I love your work. :)
it’s scary how good this holds up on just one acoustic guitar. however you came up with this, i take my hat off to you sir!
All the credit given to Metallica the world over, still falls short. One of the greatest bands (imo) of all time. This cover was extremely well done. Thanks for sharing!
So so so many musicians out there who Metallica has inspired! They will live on forever. Thank god for them.
And by the way your guitarplaying is awesome!
I think I just heard what it sounds like as soon as you wake in heaven...pure bliss!!
This is the best Lars has ever sounded.
LOL!!!
😂 this comment definately made my day
Holy crap, is that funny
That's funny 💩 right there!
Said his mother 🤓
Absolutely beautiful. The acoustic guitar has such a brilliant yet melancholy tone its just beautiful
One man band over here! Seriously though dude, awesome cover
Absolutely beautiful. Came to here to hear the intro stayed the whole song.
When the "no one but me" bit kicked with the natural harmonics I pretty much lost my shit. That was so good.
So are you going to play Kirks guitar part? James guitar part? The vocal melody?
YES.
A true master.....you are a pleasure to watch!
Mind boggling playing the solo and the rhythm together. Standing ovation
Фантастика просто!!!! Я в шоке
Incredible. The little fills and flourishes add a personal touch to an already amazing performance.
I love how you just kept the main line the same in the opening. It’s a perfect little chord progression with the phrasing it uses. Hetfield is an underrated acoustic player and composer of chord progressions. He’s not just a riff master. He really has a taste for melody and phrasing.
He was classically trained on the piano. Not by choice, but it certainly laid the foundation.
To make 500 million dollars you have to be good at what you do
OMG! That was amazing! I don’t think I blinked or breathed throughout that entire arrangement! That cascade you did before it gets heavy was incredible! The harmonics…. Wow! All your arrangements are next level, but I wasn’t expecting this Kelly. I hope James and Kirk have seen or will see this video. I’m sure Kirk would be blown away.
dude great response.I feel you! The part that chills me everytime. I re-wound it 105 times. 3:40 - 3:46. its so simply smooth and chillin in the pocket.
well done Kelly, James, Kirk, Lars and Cliff! You guys did a great job with this one!!!
Keith Marucci Dave mustaine
@TheMaxd01 No. No writing credit, as much as you may want him to have been a part of it.
Nicely done.
Beautiful song, even the original one.
And I thought i could play good.. You're awesome man! Thats pure talent right here!
198 dislikes... what more do people want? This is talent, a good rendition, and exactly what the title reads. I never understand how people can dislike everything.
I remember when there used to be dislikes…
@@seanpetersen9326There're 796 dislikes now.
flawless tone
So much emotion put into this beautiful piece
2013: you don't need this
2014: you don't need this yet
2015: nope
2016: nah
2017: maybe
2018: not yet
2019: wait for it...
2020: NOW!

One of the most beautiful things I've ever heard in my life
Superb 👏
"Fade To Black"
Life, it seems, will fade away
Drifting further every day
Getting lost within myself
Nothing matters, no one else
I have lost the will to live
Simply nothing more to give
There is nothing more for me
Need the end to set me free
Things not what they used to be
Missing one inside of me
Deathly lost, this can't be real
Cannot stand this hell I feel
Emptiness is filling me
To the point of agony
Growing darkness taking dawn
I was me, but now he's gone
No one but me can save myself, but it's too late
Now I can't think, think why I should even try
Yesterday seems as though it never existed
Death greets me warm, now I will just say goodbye
well it's official, that is by far the best fingerstyle arrangement of that song i have ever heard, my hat to you!!! so yeah, liked, subbed, and that video is now in a playlist... you more than earned it!!!! XD
I find it amazing to see people play the rhythm and melody at the same time, I know its not hard once you find a way to do it but thats the incredible part
There are moments in Metallica's classic period: this song, One, To Live is To Die, where parts of the arrangements are like...somehow early 20th century American Gothic in origin. They were very a deep band on those first few records.
You know Lars and James wanted to be classical composers eh?
@@CsykKrit I didn't but it makes sense.
@@CsykKrit cliff was Also really into classical, symphony and Metallica was his idea, sadly he never got to see it
As a die hard Metallica fan all I can say is (( thank you for sharing these beautiful chords with us ))
So he's james hammet.
James Ulrich Hammett Burton
Or Kirk Hetfield
Krob hetfich
He looks alot like Jason
Damn no love for james mustaine
i can listen to this all day. great song to begin with makes for a great fingerstyle guitar
Эдуард Суровый классно играет!)
To be able to play the music and make your guitar sing the lyrics all at once is like a super power
How can anyone dislike this? Wtf..
Hate Jack they don’t have ears
envy thats why
they are all bitter not better lol
Saw this video on my home feed, and I'm so glad I found this. especially going to visit my brother's grave today. Never heard of you til today but I'm thankful. beautiful rendition and style of this song. thank you for your beautiful contribution to society and these beautiful medleys for us all to enjoy.
2020 gang where ya at
Nimbus Nimbus me too
@Nimbus Nimbus hows it going my man 😂😂
Hellooooo!
Perfect arrangement and performans
MASTER!
Beautiful rendition of an all-time classic.
This guy drums better than Lars!
Pinjal Pradhan Damn get off Lars' ass already!! But honestly the funniest comment LOLOL
hahaha! I'm just kidding XD
I love metallica and I love lars... \m/,
LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!! Anyway this guy would need to improve his skills to match Lars' on showing a badass-face while drumming/fingerstyling :P
Pinjal Pradhan
Lars is everybody's whipping boy, LOL!
Fuck You Lars is the Best :v
That was beautiful!! My favorite cover of this song!
James: "Wow, did we write that?"
Man you crushed it. So much nuance and feel, the harmonic touches handslaps to guitar body!! You capturted the whole song Bravo!!!
Solo at the end never lasts long enough....
Wow dude, makes me fucking cry tears of emotion. That song means so much too so many people.
Amazing perfomance. Imagine Metallica was in their 20ies when they created songs like this.
haviii the lego gunner early 20’s at that
No need to imagine. They were when they wrote this. I suppose that’s the joke.
I think he meant instead of "imagine" Remember and consider the amazing fact that they were in their twenties When they created the song
Jeff Ayers exactly
I watch this 7 Year old Masterpeace in 2021 and it still Rocks
When you're jealous and just sitting with your guitar
Cringe moments
Engenius A Your guitar don't know yet you can do it with her:)
One of, if not, the best covers I have heard in a long time.
Это шедевр!Я могу слушать помногу,даже могу в машине послушать,очень хороший кавер!Заебись!
the best guitar arrangement of a song ever created
30 seconds in I gave a like
holy shit this brought tears to my eyes,its like I heard this sing for the first time again,music truly is a beautiful thing
Holy fucking shit! Amazing!
My favorite comment ever on youtube.
No word explain how I feel. Very nice work.this just made me pull out my guitar and jam
Who dislikes this?
This is raw talent. Sub+1
Incredible arrangement and well executed. Some of those fills cascade like water.. thank you for putting this out there in the world.
metallica came up with a classic here
Ive played this song a milion times out in bars (on drums) the way you played it sounded amazing!
Hey man,congratulations,great job,but what is that red thing on the head of his guitar? I await response, and once again, congratulations,simply sensational!
***** just a tuner.
+KellyValleau best tuner ever.
Speaking of the best, holy S you are the best guitar player I've found on CZcams. My new favorite. I picked up the instrument in 1999 and still play almost daily. I probably rock this one at least once a month. Great arrangement.
Tuner
+Nathan Santana lol, tuner...
It's a Chromatic Tuner www.amazon.ca/Snark-Instrument-Clip-Chromatic-Tuner/dp/B003VWKPHC
I just found this, and it's an AMAZING performance!! Fade To Black is one of my favorite Metallica songs
Sick harmonics
I wouldn't usually call a Metallica song "beautiful", but this one really was. Beautifully played.
I bet Kirk hammet is like "damn I wish I could play that."
He probably can, but there isn't a need in Metallica for it. He was classically trained Guitarist, iirc Spanish guitar.
Purple Monkey Dishwasher r/wooooshed
@@johnthelesserofthethirdoft863 No, he can't
Gorgeous. I especially love the way it's faithful to the original without unnecessary embellishments.
I would love to see someone trying to translate this to guitar tabs...
Ya no
There's some on songsterr
Love it..Wished I was blessed with this talent but I'm blessed to be hear it
Ah, Dwight didn't eat his twin after all.
Hahaha 😂
LOL how many people are going to get that one!
Haha!
he only eats beets though
wow....gave this piece another form of life.... nice
