3 years ago I never thought I would be able to play this song. Now 3 years later I finally realized I was correct.

[Ezzzzwi]

My eyes:got it
My hands:No, you don’t

[OMGItsJimmyNash]

I am 45 years old.
I have been playing guitar since I was 6 years old.
I make my living as a professional musician.
This is the first time I have ever seriously considered switching my career.
Thanks John!

The tickity tackity that he plays without any notes sounds way better than anything I've ever played.

[trendkill]

“Hope that helps” Well it does John but problem is I can’t fuckin play it

[JohnsFrusciante]

Johnny depp has been killing the guitar lessons lately

[lmusic]

The best tip is to say "good evening" before starting the song

[a.j.preller]

Watching videos like this makes me never want to pick up a guitar again.

[johncuellar]

Step 1: tune guitar to C A D G B E
Step 2: *unique picking pattern*
Step 3: *have a double jointed thumb* (breaking it is optional)

[panliz]

That helps. Helps me understand why i can't play it xD

[CityStarrzz]

This is simultaneously both the best, and worst “tutorial” of all time hahaha.

[korkenknopfus]

The “hope that helps” is the grace shoot we all needed.

Left handed people: *Left hand noises*

[macrominutes]

I bet he was tired of watching people on Youtube play it incorrectly.

[gianski]

“Easier than it sounds”, this song is the best example of the opposite, this song sounds easier than it actually is, the difficulty is not in the notes but rather the technique of how you play them

[adgg]

He's even got Professor Snape's haircut to go with the wizardry.

[nipulkradmsinatagras]

Me watching this video while glancing at my guitar...

My guitar: *"Don't even think about it, you moron!"*

[abbyc]

he really said “the way u play it is to just play it”

[noahgraber]

Honestly at a more advanced level this tip really does help even though it doesn’t really offer anything to newer players.

[erpaderpa]

So many people felt attacked with how he played ‘every note for itself’ 😂
