This isn't the work of St. Sanders, but it's quite joy-inducing...

My friend just sent me The Beach Boys one a few days ago, it's all about the clapping.

p sure that one is not the original shreds dude. not that it should matter, but I think he brings a panache to them that imitators lack.

oh I guess someone already pointed out it's not St Sanders
Has the Kings of Leon one been posted?

It's one of my favourites for the vocals alone.

This one is amazing. Very U.S. Maple-y. Musically like this more than I'd probably like the real thing.

I know it's not the original guy, but the Beach Boys one is driving me to tears. Why is the hand clapping in that _so_ funny?
― kaleb h. (Everything You Like Sucks), Wednesday, 17 April 2013 09:37 (eleven years ago) link
I know, it happens four times in the clip and every time it's just as as funny. Something about how happy he looks while he's clapping and Mike Love next to him so into singing, it's just perfect.

ok, this andy rehfeldt dude is pretty amazing

god he is just leagues above everyone else who does this. probably because he's obviously pretty musically competent

My only issue is that the original song isn't much less ridiculous than this version.

i still think the original few were the funniest things i've ever seen on the net.
― piscesx, Wednesday, 27 September 2017 20:34 (six years ago) link
My favorites are "Kenny G and Michael Bolton Shred"https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=7P6QYWqRxww
Also the Hall and Oates Maneater. I have to take that one in small doses, it's so good.
― calstars, Wednesday, 27 September 2017 21:54 (six years ago) link
St Sanders is probably the most accomplished (was he not also the original shred video maker?) but the Beach Boys' I Get Around and Johnny and June Carter Cash's Jackson both still leave me gasping for air
― doug watson, Thursday, 28 September 2017 14:37 (six years ago) link
the Elvis one too, that one is brilliant

The best shreds are definitely for me the guitar-heavy mainstream rock/pop-rock - the Focus tune seems about the absolute limit. Any further and we're going down the Captain Beefheart shreds route.
