Already did
The Sultans of Swing you just performed gave me goosebumps and the hair on my arms stood straight up 😂❤😂❤
You deserve my vote even without being asked to vote! 👍
First like. Then I watched 4 times and finally listened for the 5th time (let's not lie, we all did it). I love the song Sultans of Swing and the group Dire Straits, I like how you played it because it's hard to imitate Mark Knopfler.
This is my first time commenting on Sophie and I have listened to a lot of videos. I subscribed to this channel a long time ago.
Keep up the good songs from the last century.
I listened to your performances of Pink Floyd (Comfortably Numb), Guns N' Roses, Bon Jovi, The Beatles, Queen (Bohemian Rhapsody), AC/DC, Led Zeppelin... I would like to hear another Pink Floyd or Queen songs. Even though it's a different style of guitar playing, I think a lot of your followers would love to hear something from U2.
Anyway thanks for the wonderful music.
You make 68 year old men that were rocking to the original very happy ,thank you
Respect!
sure it is only because of the song or something else 😂
72 year old men as well 😂
From Australia , 70years old .....damn she is good ! ( and easy on the eye )
Brilliant performance. It’s all too easy to forget the thousands of hours this lady has spent getting to this standard. Much respect.
people like them practice 40 hours a day😂
Yes, and those finger tips hard as steel too
Super sweet whumm
BRAVO !
thits lady
A master at her craft indeed... super sultana of swing!!!
Usually I listen to and enjoy cool music while closing my eyes and just hanging there; This song, I enjoy it more with my fully open eyes ❤
snap!
Oh, For Sure!
sure you do
this song ? oh.the whole clip..🥰😛
Hahahaha😂 made you awake eh
The “Queen of Shred” does it once again! Rocking out a classic from Dire Straits, but still maintains a timeless classic.
Thank you!
I don't know what is more stunning her looks or her playing
Both of course !
yeah.... brain completely overloaded. Locked up. Need to reboot.
Her Piano ability is awesome …. 👏 👏
Well-rounded Performance 🙌
underrated comment right here
@@finnmacdonald9542 U mean being "well-rounded" ? I agree about that, also. 😉
One of the most outstanding, and truly rounded things I ever saw
@@thedude4632 they look kind of like silicone but woudl be great if real 😂
I am 61 years old. I went back to my youth and cried.
Thank you very much.❤❤❣❣❤❤
Is that because you wish you were a young 20 something again, and could meet her...?! 😉
Yaap! I think he was listening with his eyes. @@DT-ge8gd
@@DT-ge8gd No, that's me. I'll admit it lol
@@DT-ge8gd Cried too ! Because it reminded me the virtuosity of the Alchemy version !!!! She's cute, has nice breast, but I don't care, she's playing very well !!! Pros : she's good at guitar, cons : I miss all the solo part of the live version...
@@DT-ge8gd Maybe it's always some of that. If that's all it is, you haven't had your life. I had mine, I'm 68 and still think she's great. If you didn't think that, then there would be something wrong with you.
Sultans of swing is a musical master piece.
I never understood why people liked money for nothing better.
Sultans is a masterpiece..
Great choice.
Very impressed as always Sophie..
MTV - video killed the radio star
Just play the first 30 seconds of Money For Nothing at volume 10 on a good speaker system and you will understand. But both are great.
I dont hate money for nothing, sultans is a batter track that gets second place all the time when it really deserves first.@@gordo3582
Maybe we will get lucky and she will play money for nothing next..
I certainly wouldnt complain..
@jason yup. this young lady nailed it! she looks like experiencing a certain bliss playing her guitar! super hot all the way, looks and talent beyond compare!!
Money for nothing is well also... but sultan is classic master of music 😊
Respect for the classics, you can't learn it, you have to have it in your heart. A wonderful rendition of this timeless piece.
Yes, I love that jam.
Yes,,,great
Came for the view. Stayed for the shred. Glad I did
Came here to say the same. Scenery was great, but the excellent cover is what kept me here for the full 5 mins. Freaking outstanding.
You have all the gifts that nature can give you.! long live rock!!!
Men of culture, here we gather again to appreciate Dire Straits.
Also, Mark Knopfler is one of my favorite guitarists and songwriters! I am pretty sure he would love this "shred version" of yours, especially since you never disappoint us fans and your smile always reels us all in.
Oh wait there's sound too?😮😂
I appreciate this group of men of culture!
@@SophieLloydAnd we all appreciate you!
Continue to rock out and blessing us with all these amazing "shred versions" that you give us.
@@SophieLloyd Super tasteful homage!
i want to be that kesel right now
Hypnotic. Could watch those for hours.
👍🏼😜
Those? 😛
Heer fingers. She plays that guitar magnificently.
@@jackhamilton8362
HEY! Show some respect! It's purely for Sophie's musical ability that anyone would watch her playing....and I have some prime real estate for sale in central Australia if you're interested, mate...;)
Its not like she is showcasing them right
She's beautiful and a great guitar player. Just can't get enough of her. Love you more Sophie
Hey guys, just because she is easy on the eyes does not take away or enhance her technical ability. She’s simply amazingly talented.
She's amazing! I'm a metalhead and just amazed by these bluesy performaces. Sophie put her heart and soul into this. Massive respect!
Yeah. It look so easy for her. Thats what i mean with "I am pretty sure i look it for the music". Because, its also fun to watch. And yeah, i realy mean fun! She play this legendary song from my favorite band, with a smile and enjoy it.
@@raagaan4827 "fun to watch" ( o Y o ) lol
I'd like to play that Fiddle
@@ragemodegaming7962 xD You dont get me wrong :D
One of the coolest "guitar songs" ever written. He's not easy to keep up with. You crushed it, nice work Sophie!
Soooo… true,
Song? What song? Lol. But seriously very nicely done
jiggle jiggle
Best combination of guitar skills and showing beauty.
She's a pleasure to look at and a pleasure to listen to as well
Wow....she's got it all beauty and talent....
Sophie, you did a great version of the music! I think even Mark Knopfler would appreciate it. You fill in the vocals with a very smart and delightful solo as well! My compliments‼️ It's the best version of Sultans ode Swing I've heard. Keep up us dancing, Sophie 🎉 💃🏽
Thank you so much!
Never wanted to be a guitar so bad before. Oh, yeah, incredible music, what an awesome talent. 😂
JorgeBrown, I agree with every word you say.
Phenomenal. As a 60 year old man that has heard that song many times she nailed it. I love watching her play and playing songs with her twist on them. She's very talented and her dedication shows.
Wow ! Ears and eyes gone to heaven, what a woman...❤
🤓👍
Yeah. This is a lot to let sink into the senses. Beauty and massive rendition of Sultans. Woah. I can't stop smiling.
Very nice, very simple and modest.
Sinked in on first listening.
I love how she is always so happy with everything she plays. Pure bliss.
Amazing. I'm 90 years old and got wood for the first time in 28 years. TY
Absolutely the very best rendition of Sultans of Swing !!!!!
One of the most recognizable guitar riffs, love it, well done!
I used to listen to Dire Straits as a kid until my tape gave out. Sultans of Swing is a classic. I absolutely love this version you've given us. You stayed true to the original, but you also gave it a nice little twist with the shred. I echo what others have said. Mark Knopfler would be proud!
It's a very tight music and song. It sounds like a guitar track but when you see the sina drums version you realise how tight the persuasion was.
I really love this version Sophie once again you've killed it . Superb
Candy for both ears and eyes! And the design of that guitar was a real beauty
No, you didn't ruin it, you reinvented it in a mighty impressive way. Superb playing. Keep on keepin' on (as they no longer say).
SOS is a god-level original song. Cannot ever get tired of hearing its groove.
Always very glad to see Dire Straits getting some love. Horribly underrated.
One of my favorite songs and guitar leads. Sophie nailed it and then some, in a flowing, natural way. She's the real thing!
Absolutely the greatest ever!!!! I could listen and watch her all night!!!!!!
I keep coming back to this performance. Every note is just perfect.
My favorite part of this video is watching you become inmersed in the power of this song. It's one of the best things about music... the connection with emotion.
Whoo! No denying Sophie put this in a class all her own full of top skill and iconic flare!🎸 🔥🎶🎵🔥
Impressionnant ! Quelle maîtrise.
Love this Sophie. My long since departed Dad & I were big Knopfler fans back in the day. Keeping the melody alive in 2023 & true to the original 🥰🥰 Stunning guitar paint job & love the hybrid picking 😁
Una locura total; increíble ejecución con la viola. Congratulations!! 👌🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I really liked that because her version was true to the music so I could hum along, but she took it to a whole new Sophie Lloyd level which I could hear all the time. So nice.
Sophie - Thank you for your hard work and time to lay down this song. Every note and movement perfectly clean. Incredible. A true pleasure to experience your work. Thank You...!!!
That was great. Eye and Ear candy. Great chops on this one. Beautiful smile is a bonus. ❤️
THAT was impressive. Nice to hear a young person play with feeling like that while still throwing down some shred. (The absolutely stunning beauty doesn't hurt either.) You GO, girl!
OMG Sophie... what an amazing cover of one of the greatest rock songs in history. Im sure your fellow country man, Mark is nodding in approval of your cover of his greatest hit. Ive watched and listen to hundreds of artist record this song but none have been better than what I just watched and heard just now. That was 101% totally awesome!!!! Thank you so much for sharing this here and I look forward to hearing all your new releases. 🥰😍🤩❤🧡💛❤
WOW-just a superb jam by a beautiful woman! I so refreshing to see lovely complexion & glowing skin with no tattoos carpeting with red and black. I'm an old teenage band guy from the 60's SFV/LA & appreciate the true skill of a guitarist such as Sophie Lloyd! Man, she is awesome!
Jesus! Unbelievable. Sultans of Swings is one of my favorite songs ever. Love Mark Knopfler. I have to say, you crushed this song! I never, in a million years, would have thought anyone could play this song better than Mark, but you might have accomplished it! What a fantastic cover of a fantastic song. And just think...you're beautiful on top of it. Wow. Just wow.
She is my favourite female guitar player, just amazing
Those guitar licks were Knopfler-worthy even before the shredding, and that was awesome too. Great cover of one of my favorite songs.
When you play a classic song like this, there are certain things you listen for from the original. Iconic licks for example. Your version of this song was spot on. Amazing job. You are beautiful and gifted on the guitar!!!
So this is why the guitar is shaped like that
😅🤣🤣
😂😂😂
Which guitar are you talking about??
Check out guitar gorge...
I don't see a guitar.
I love that song, that band is classic. Great job Sophie is a master.
Absolutely one of my favorite songs!
Every time I think this lady can’t get any better, she gets better!!👍
That song has at least 3 "typical/standard" songs in it's complexity. Sophie's brain must have several thousand more convolutions and synapses in than is typical to play it - perfectly. You are a majestic wonder, Ms. Lloyd. Doing these videos enables sooo many people to enjoy your masterful artistry.
Sophie is making classics even better. No idea how she is doing that.
Don't look, close your eyes....and you can feel her awesomeness! It comes from within. THIS IS TALENT!!!
why would i close my eyes when i can watch and basically hear the original that she's barely playing over?
Not looking at her is a crime - period!
Bloody hell…first time viewer ,,,, she actually plays that thing
Really, really tasteful version!! You hit all the key licks, and improvised amazingly over the rest of the solo! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thanks so much! I was worried about messing around with it too much but I wanted to add my own vibe to it aswell
@@SophieLloyd yeah, it was really inspirational. I’m on my way to learning the solo myself, so your timing was really great in releasing the video! 😁 Keep up the great work!
Wish I discovered this channel years ago! I I came for the view but stayed for the shred. This girl is absolutely fabulous! I can watch this all over again. Fantastic song and a fantastic performance. What a guitar player! Keep it up Sophie 💪
YOUR A NATURAL! GREAT JOB
Sophie, there is a good reason why you are the best female guitar player out their right now! It`s not because of your technical abilities, which are outstanding by the way. It`s your stage presence. You smile, and look like your`e having a great time while performing!! You just fire on all cylinders, bravo!!
Good thing you specified female
She definitely knows what she’s doing. She’s well endowed with talent and skills!
You are the only one it appears with the guts to admit what the center of attention was / is.
Very good choice of words, I get the not so hidden meaning. 🙂
Sultans of Swing, the underwear edition. It's a shame. Here amazing guitar skills alone are worth the view. I guess it's how it is these days.
What an amazing performance Sophie... Thank you for sharing this great version!!!
Elle est splendide et elle joue magnifiquement ! She's gorgeous and she plays so beautifully!
Everyone has their own style and yours shines through on this great song that was written for great guitarists.
It’s just mental how amazing some people are on guitar. It really blows my mind what humans are capable of.
@4:38 Look at that skill! And that joy on her face! 10 points goes to.....Sophie!
Incredible version.., i LOVE IT..!!!
Wow, no tattoos and perfect execution of the piece, love it.
What does tattoos have to do with anything?
Tattoos on a beautiful woman is a disgrace to the world!
@@elyssa.c90 a lot of gorgeous women cover a beautiful picture of beauty with too many pieces of body art. 1 or 2 ok, but don't over do it. a clean human body(physically proportioned mind you) is beauty!
Imprinting tattoos on your body becoz its trendy is what superficial ppl take for "art".@@elyssa.c90
@@elyssa.c90 nothing, but u miss the point, or most likely u "want" to not get it
Super rendition of the BEST song ever written. Mark would be pleased with your version and pleasantly surprised at the talent shown here. Got my thumbs up straight away.
Stand back Mark, there's a new sheriff in town! Awesome love your guitar 😊.
HOLY FREAKING COW!!!!! @SophieLloyd that cover is straight up UNBELIEVABLE!!!! keep on rocking!!!
I love Sophie so much Sophie is my favourite woman and guitar 🎸 player ever what a shred all sophies shreds are so much better and greater than the original songs by the bands when they recorded the songs thanks for the shreds Sophie ❤ Dan xxx
Thanks Dan!
men of culture... we meet again.. cheers to our great taste of music & linking towards instrumental tracks...
Pleasing to the ears and also to the eyes. Very beautiful.
Wirklich, wirklich, wirklich GEIL! Man muss sich dieses Lied auf Gitarre mal richtig anhören, woah das ist so... ich kann es nicht anders sagen... GEIL!
Es ist boah hammermäßig!
Doch ja das ist es!
Oh my god! It's a beautiful pair of white lights! They are so symmetrical. And they stay put throughout the video. I wonder if they draw a lot of power. Wow!
I've only just noticed the white lights, haha!
It's people, with sounds like hers, that motivates me to keep working at my own guitar journey!
Sophie truly is a die hard rock and rollers dream,bar none, right on Sophie,u r a beautiful dream sequence,God Bless U! The Kattman! Smooches 😊
I still maintain that the original is perfection... but I now know that it can be taken in new, amazing directions. Thank you, that was mindblowing.
Outstanding! Great clean channel tone, switching it to a perfect distortion, what a bonus!! The flow is virtuoso!! I’m stunned while having lunch! God Bless Sophie!! Psalms 23
Thanks so much!
you want her number as well bro?
Certainly a very talented musician you are Sophie!! Been watching you for years! This is one of my new favorite shreds!! Amazing!💯
Thanks!
Fear not lovers of music there are talented folk such as this beautiful young lady that will make your leg find the beat & your heart near to bursting.
Had to be heard to be believed. Flawless performance.
We are fortunate that you are gracious enough to share your incredible talent with us. A new spin on a classic is refreshing. Thank you
Wonderful... wonderful... wonderful... one of my favourite songs and just so nice to hear it from you. Great talent. Thank you for your great music.🎉
Classic happiness in all ways . . .just what this planet needs
How is it possible for any girl to be that talented and that beautiful also?
Awesome rendition Sophie!!! I have always liked this song since it came out many moons ago and you did this one with perfection and class!! Kudos Sophie!! 😎
You kept the swing! At first I thought you were going to shred it up. You kept a great song great! Thank you for your respect.
Thanks so much!
@@SophieLloydМолодчинка, красавица😊.
@@SophieLloydЧувствуется чисто английский язык. Единственное, на гитаре перебор на тон выше
yeah how young we were, cool😊
Agreed!
it's the most beautiful version I've heard, well done
you are a delight!!! play girl play!! Straits would be proud!!
That was freaking awesome! You killed it and best of all had so much fun playing this piece. It's such a unique and classic song. It takes you from one phase to the next and back again. Love your playing. Thanks, I needed that!
I'm pretty sure this is the first time I've heard such a clean sound from your guitar...!😆
Very tasteful playing Sophie, quite suitable for the style of the song. Nicely spiced up on the solos.👏👏👏
Best of luck on the new release!
Nice twist to an enduring classic
I can't get enough of this song! It's my most listened to guitar solo ever since I discovered it a few days ago. I believe complex guitar solos like this are good for brain cells.
I freaking love this song and I'm so happy that you did it with so much respect. Fantastic!
You have done an amazing job wid this... Respected the original song and made it your own @ the same time... HATS OFF TO YOU SOPHIE!!!
Thanks so much! That was the goal!
That is one seriously impressive piece of guitar work! 👏👏👍
Brilliant. Knopler would be proud. Talent.
