DESCRIPTION
Have you ever felt invisible? In a world of 7.6 billion people it’s extremely hard to be noticed. There are so many amazing people who have a lot to say but they don’t manage to make themselves heard, because their voices are too gentle and this world is too loud.

How many times have you felt like no one wants to listen to what you have to say? It doesn’t feel very good, that’s for sure. You might feel like it’s not even worth to go on.

You try to scream your message until you burn out and you lose your voice, and still no one hears you. Some people give up.
I decided to dig into this topic by playing my latest arrangement in a crowded and chaotic place. To simulate how the world works, I decided not to use any amplification.

Of course there was simply too much noise so barely anyone stopped. But instead of feeling discouraged I learnt something important.

You should never stop giving the best of yourself to this world. Don’t let the world silence you. Keep spreading beauty even when you don’t get recognition for it.

You are not invisible if you can see yourself.

"Bitter Sweet Symphony" by The Verve, arranged and performed by Luca Stricagnoli.

The only channel that nobody ask for tab...

[tenani]

4 Year old Luca: "Mum, can I get another guitar?"
"But you already have one, did you break it?"
"No, but my right Hand feels lonely."

[DaveBuildsThings]

He doesn't play a guitar. He controls it like the force in Star Wars. I've played guitar for over 50 years and could never in my life comprehend how someone could do what Luca has done. I stand in awe.

[benhartmann]

I'm a musician from Germany, playing the guitar and singing for 20 years now....I've seen many big artist, big ones of the past like Dylan, Santana, Clapton and so many more... but that performance... never found something touching the heart like this before....Amen

[TheElilaye]

World in a rush, nobody stops to appreciate the moment... bittersweet

[redsapples]

The whole point of his video is that anyone can be amazing in their own way and still feel invisible. Just because people around you may not see it doesn’t mean you are not amazing.

[stevestinnett]

If I had 5% of his talent, I would feel talented !

[TheMilw]

"Have you ever felt invisible?" 
everyone ignores an amazing performance..

[cherrypickerguitars]

As a life long guitarist, I’m totally knocked out by this mans creativity and consummate skill!
Simply put - “WOW”

[vikingeatchicken]

Beautiful! To God be the glory. Thank you Lord for the gift of music. And thanks to Luca your good vessel.

[timharloff]

Thank you, Luca. I really need a little bit of money, and now I can sell all of my freaking guitars...

[emmaoudekempers]

I was skipping through covers trying to find one that captures the emotion behind this song better than the verve does when playing live. Didn't expect much from an instrumental cover, but yes, this is the one. Great work

"You are not invisible if you can see yourself." - Luca Stricagnoli 2017

[motherfreedom]

Just have to say, my severely autistic 9 year old son out of no where wanted to start playing guitar and so we bought him one. Now, all he watches is your channel. Thank you for giving him an outlet ❤

[finch]

I have seen Luca play live twice with a front row seat each Kills everyting he plays. Just so amazing to see his version of the originals

[VictorMatsunaga]

Brain 1: Lets play the guitar.
Brain 2: Sure I'll get the second guitar

Brain 1= WTF WHO ARE U

Brain 3, quietly starts playing the harmonica...

[sixwingsram]

I think that Luca is actually a musical genius. So original and innovative, i love his work🎼🎼🎶

[foxfive]

I’m listening to this on a plane right now, and I’m in absolute genuine awe… absolutely incredible performance. 😲

[tidalwavewelds]

3:05 that moment somehow hits you right in the feels

[TheDissapearingGuy]

Glad he had the harmonica there at the end. The two guitars just wasn't really enough.
Amazing stuff!!
