There are no blue screen effects...he is bending time and space while playing

[smooothest]

When you play guitar this well, fashion is no longer a concern.

[chainmatrix]

Long time admirer here, but the talent & hard work this takes never ceases to amaze. This is practically lead, rhythm and bass guitar all bundled into one performance.

[SkTimmy]

all i see is a face, guitar, arms, and hands. Good camouflage 

[KingZeusCLE]

9 years later and still a work of art. Kudos.

[DieselBoy]

I don't know how he plays such intense music in one take, pure awesomeness

[hatthomas]

Thank you, Ewan! For never selling out! NEVER sell out! This is our anthem!

[emericau]

still watching this all these years later your song comes to mind when im on an acoustic binge, so clean

[linkamus]

Still come back to listen to this every now and then, and it always makes me feel happy.

[coooolibri]

i listen to this kind of music since im 16. now im 32,
and i still grind my guitar daily to learn his songs.
highly underappreciated stuff, this is music you
people in the charts make with your programs,
cause your talent doesnt go beyond theory.
this man is above that all with consistency and
pureness.

3:28 and the repeat should have its own style name, it is epic and beautiful.

[lucienlalachance]

This makes me tear up everytime when you get to that ludacrisly fast part. I can feel your passion and its strong. This has seriously inspired me to keep trying at what I'm passionate about in life and creates so many different emotions everytime I listen. This might be my favorite piece of music ever. Thank you for sharing it.

[HalfMadGentleman]

Ewan, I just discovered you a few days ago but I'm amazed and I have to say. I've never ever been more inspired to keep playing guitar. You are the first person I feel has saved me from giving up. My hero man keep up the kick ass guitar.
Thank

[joshtraun]

Im playing this song for years. Its close to impossible reaching the level of clean playing he has at 3:28 . Insane tempo and such a high number of notes.

[JoseFlores-bxun]

Dios te siga bendiciendo Ewan. Gracias por cada maravilla que interpretas. Con admiracion. GRACIAS.

[simonabramovitch]

You can't help admiring this man's sense of perfectionism. Even the slightest misplayed note or unwelcome sound, rare as they are, shows on his face. I imagine it must be mentally tough to keep those kind of standards, but we get to enjoy the fruits of the obsession.

I'm now genuinely inspired to fix my bad guitar habits, and to work on my stretch, speed, and precision after 10 years of sloppy play. Thanks Ewan.

[Ozzwald]

Ewan, your playing is so fucking unique, quirky and completely melodically and rhythmically brilliant! Every fucking song is like an acid trip to another dimension of sonic awesomeness I never knew existed until now.
Fuck. Yeah!

[SeleniumGlow]

The video is from the era of winamp visualization plugins... I remember using milkdrop... it was so nice... where did all this go in today's modern players??

[handsoftheSinner]

Its amazing listening to his strumming patterns and watching them. The amount of control it takes is phenomenal.

[Volvalex]

Immense skill oozing from every inch of his godly hands
