“The top is down...on my CAR” Just that wee touch of ESL pushes it from travesty to the sublimely ridiculous

the lyrics are so hilariously not-blues, like a weird Van Halen b-side also the video: here are all my guitars, here are all my cars lets party with the blues okay<3 Wingie

1911 Strut has to be about a gun and that's going to be incredible

FOREVER MAN???

He loves all the Strat wranglers I guess. I wonder if he ever cheats on his at home, puts a towel over it and plays some Dickey betts / joe Walsh bullshit on a les Paul

I've never heard that many notes played over a blues progression.
― Marty8501 (Marty Innerlogic), Saturday, 2 February 2019 15:06 (five years ago) link
That track sounds like Eric Johnson with ADHD.

while my guitar gently weeps is les paul tho

i love how completely he's still committed to a completely outdated idea of what a rock star is, having 8000 identical rare Strats and cruising around in a Ferrari

He's finally realized shred metal is never coming back, not even in Japan and Germany, and now he's chasing that sweet Joe Bonamassa money.

Even Ferraris get the blues

I've probably made more mistakes than anybody. But I don't dwell on them. I don't expect people to understand me, because I'm pretty complex, and I think outside the box with everything I do. I've always taken the untraveled path. Obviously, people have their opinions, but I can't get too wrapped up in that, because I know what I can do and I know what kind of person I am. And I have no control over what anybody says about me. Back in Sweden I'm 'Mr Personality' in the tabloids, but obviously I can't take that seriously. I know in my heart that if I do the absolute best I can do, maybe ten years from now people may turn around and say 'he wasn't that bad'.

his taste in Ferraris stuck in 80s Magnum PI era as well (video rolled into Yngwie, Steve Vai, Zakk Wylde and Nuno Bettencourt playing Bohemian Rhapsody. Yngwie relatively restrained).

To be fair, musicians flaunting their wealth has never stopped being popular, it just doesn’t really work the other way around when you’re not that famous anymore.

maybe if he unbuttoned his shirt more

Mr Personality?
― calstars, Saturday, 2 February 2019 17:13 (five years ago) link
Tabloids?
'Cause he's so ugly?
― pomenitul, Saturday, 2 February 2019 17:14 (five years ago) link
He’s stuck in a very specific time and place and it’s perfect really

I like how they have to blur his license plate

i wish they’d blur his chest

“It’s not the notes you don’t play, it’s the many many notes you play.”

Tbf his music would be way more interesting if he adopted New Complexity tenets.

From his wiki page:
"As a teenager he was heavily influenced by classical music, particularly 19th century Italian virtuoso violinist and composer Niccolò Paganini, as well as Johann Sebastian Bach, a German multi-instrumentalist and composer of the 18th century."

It takes time to learn how to listen though. It’s not something one could pick up on first or second hearing
― calstars, Saturday, 2 February 2019 19:23 (five years ago) link
I like that he's described as a multi-instrumentalist first and a composer second.

Not to be confused with Sebastian Bach, lead singer of Skid Row.

I didn't realize Tommy Wiseau played guitar

the early Rising Force stuff is really pretty good Euro trad metal.... he really was astonishing, much better when he sticks to neoclassical

Yeah, his first three albums are really good, and the two recent ones with Ripper Owens on vocals are better than they had any right to be. But "Yngwie plays the blues" is an idea no one should have encouraged.
― grawlix (unperson), Saturday, 2 February 2019 20:39 (five years ago) link
I like his old stuffas a persona he’s a total cheeseball egomaniac & i kinda love it

love yngwie's take on the late career back-to-basics recd. gtr could be a little wetter tbh

He makes Joe Bonamassa look like Charley Patton, ffs.
― Montgomery Burns' Jazz (Tarfumes The Escape Goat), Saturday, 2 February 2019 23:34 (five years ago) link
The insanity makes this vastly more entertaining than any Bonamassa I’ve heard tbh
