I wish I could tell my mother how much I loved her through 6 strings, a sparkling clean tone and a melodic delay that sends shivers down your spine.... Thanks buckethead

Mom, you left to be with our Father 15 years ago today. I miss you. This is for you. Thanks Buck.

Have been listening to this for over 16-17 years now. It invokes so many emotions I just can't explain it. Sometimes tears just rolls down when am a lil drunk. And imo this is better than the studio version.

This video has been #1 on my KZread music playlist for at least a decade now... I think it may ever been more... I view it as survivalist of the fittest, and thus, it's never going go, unless this video go's

@@mephiston001 Yeah, man! Sorry to hear about your mom. I hope for this video to not be shut down so you can still think of the beautiful memories you had with her. Stay well 😅👍🏻

Man I would've payed a lot of money to witness a performance like this one. I've only known the studio recorded version & I came across this tonight. Beautiful vibes emanate from this artist unlike any other I've ever heard. A truly gifted son sent from the cosmos to enlighten us with his music!!

+deckardplisken Luckily someone replied to this post recently since I had forgotten about this performance. I wrote that original post 2 years ago & to this day I'm still a devout fan of his music. I've heard 80% or so of his albums & seen sooo many live performances on KZread over the years but this one does stick out amongst the others. Having not heard it for 2 years it makes me realise again how special & unique of an artist Buckethead truly is!! If only I could show the world this performance & show everyone the talent that emanates from this man's soul.

Listening to this like 13 years later. This thing has been uploaded 16 years ago. wow. Still good!

Colma has got to be one of the most relaxing albums around to date, ultimate audio chill experience. Simply Beautiful...

Heard this song, w/o seeing the title, while I was studying. Felt so warm and nurturing. I looked to see what it was, and started crying. Just so beautiful and makes me want my mom with me now.

Buckethead is a phenomenon, a freak of nature in the best kind of way, his music is incredible, his abilities unhuman. To me he simply is the greatest player of this era and beyond, of all time.

you're absolutely right...All the albums he's been successful with, being able to keep a relatively good hidden identity, and not only making it into gh2 but having the hardest song definitely shows all of that

Buckethead is simply put the most versatile guitarist out there. He's amazing at improv, as well. He may not be the most influential, but I'm willing to bet he's the most skilled.

Dude, buckethead has sure-as-shit helped me get out of chronic sadness on pretty much every time, since i've known about him. Pretty sure the least i owe him is a hug.

its like buckethead writes all his songs from his heart. i admire it

Real music still lives..thank God.Listening and getting teary eyed,moving..

I wish i could tell buckethead how many things in my life he has got me through and i just want to give the guy a hug he is my hero and always will be.Rock on Buckethead.

This song and Electric Tears are the most beatiful songs ive ever heard. Buckethead can shred faster and play with more emotion than basically anyone.

hes fast....can compose beautiful things...soul...loves his mom.....best guitarist in the world

Who ever says Buckethead doesn't have soul doesn't know the meaning of life. What guitarist has ever written a whole album dedicated to his parents? Personally I love hearing the raw beauty of his guitar work and I don't have to listen to annoying lyrics about how life sucks, blah blah blah. The man has a heart of gold.

towards the end, he improvises some scales that are quite ethereal and enveloping. his note and scale arrangements evoke such emotion. he is one of those guys that makes his guitar sing what he's feeling. behind the bucket lies a shitload of emotion. check out the contrasts of the albums 'Colma' and 'Island Of Lost Minds'. he is all over the spectrum, which makes his so very talented, indeed. one of the greatest of all time, CERTAINLY.

I thought of this today...No matter how old he gets, he will always be the same Buckethead. In a sense, the mask literally makes him timeless.

and just as Vai eventually mastered his teacher, Satch... Bucket has reached beyond the boundaries of his teacher, Gilbert, and has become, in my opinion, the greatest guitarist in history.

accoustic buckethead is awesome

I truly love this man. How or why would anyone dislike this? BH changed my life.

Buckethead is simply PHENOMINAL. No matter what kind of music you listen to, you will always find AT LEAST one Buckethead song that you like.

Did you know that Kevin Jonas was Bucketheads mentor? He taught the bucket everything he knew. Praise Kevin for bringing this god of guitar to us!

people dont realize how much feeling goes into these songs. buckethead is the most amazing musician who ever lived. long live buckethead and let his music go on forever.

this is my favorite performance that I have seen of his. it has a very relaxing feel to it.

This song is so amazing. Thanks for posting!

This is the third most respected guy in my list...I plan also on wearing a mask, in times to come...and like bucket head, no human relations...I respect that more than anything...someone who doesn't need humans to be best at what he does...5 stars! Buckethead is the real man, the real man...

clapton is, dimebag is one of the most unique and best players ever, coolest riffs, breakdowns, and solos with soul ever. stretches across the fretboard up and down with his left hand, probably one of the best ever with his left hand

how can a person not like this song? I mean i listen to some hardcore shit, but sometimes songs like this are just good to hear

not just this song but the complete beutiful album "colma",when she had colon cancer this album is unique and perfect

MAN! This guy is really crazy! He looks like a robot or something but he plays with the heart on the fingers! Never seen so strong feeling. :)

its beautiful. i listen to it everyday. buckethead forever

i will always admire any famous, or performing individual who honors a mother through a work. Mothers deserve credit in any child's success.

Amazing, it's beyond me how anyone cannot appreciate this! This is one of the best!

i have never heard buckethead before but this song touched me. amazing song.

I love this man! He is just beautiful.

Buckethead fan for life :)

me too. he is my forever angel and inspiration. when i cannot finish my aim, i just think about him, he can do it well so i can

this is by far one of the best things ive heard buckethead play and one of the most moving. his mother must truly be extremely proud of him

watching buckethead always makes me feel better lol

buckethead is the pure inspiration for me ...

songs like this can really show others that buckethead is not just a shredder, but he can create beautifully melodic songs as well.

This is one of the best songs in the world to just chill to. So amazing.

Beautiful piece of acoustic, as is all of Buckethead's acoustic. The whole album Colma is a great album. Buckethead is a guitar legend.

Yes Buckethead has a talent that is very unique; his ability to play so many styles with such emotion as noted by many of you, to play with such grace, flow, and almost God like ability, with a musical expression that as far as I know is unrivaled makes him one of my favorite of all time. Very glad You Tube has such a nice collection of his works on video. Thank You!

this song is just beautiful

What a chill song, this guy spans so many genre's it's amazing.

Holy shit i thought the day would NEVER come that an acoustic buckethead video! thanks alot

the best version ever of this song! lvoe this song since i listened to for the very first time! buckethead is amazing!

this song just like the album is amazing colma is one of a kind and how do you dislike this beautiful piece of music

Gorgeous sound.

What a great version of this song. I LOVE it.

The man is unbelievable...just prodigal talent..absolutely amazing talent

truly this guy has a unique gift for guitar

This is good music to listen to at night while you do your work

This is beautiful and haunting. The man is extremely versatile and creative, not just a shredder.

I'm just amazed by the creativity that he comes out with in every song.

really beautiful ...

Seconded. He is terribly underrated. Long live BucketHead.

this song is amazing buckethead u rock!

why is bucket head so awsome???!!!!!!! it should be illegal to be as awsome as he is

He loves his mom, thus this if for his mom :p

My mother love's buckethead,and I dedicate this song to her, I love you mom! ^-^

agreed. i love colma so much. one of my fave buckethead albums.

wow i never heard bucket play like this this is beutifull bucket is and wil always be my favorite guitarist ever

ive read most of the last comments, and my assesment is vastly different. what makes buckethead far and beyond the best guitartist in history is not his speed, his skill, ect. no, its much more about 2 things: his vast knowledge of the instrument and its many forms of expression, as well as his exceptional attention to melody. his skill is unmatched, but what puts him above the rest is the combination of the 2 elements i just described. he is the mozart of our time.

This is the product of living in a chicken coop for years. Simply brilliance!

For Mom thats cool. My mom means the world to me. I bet this made her feel loved.

What a lovely tribute to his mother!

Colma is my favorite album by him. It's got so much emotion in it. I love it.

oh yeahhhh awesome song, the version of for mom on acoustic shards is heavenly .. buckethead pwns my life i love him . hez a frikkin genius

buckethead play with his emotion thats why his music is touching

This may just be my favorite song, not for its speed and intensity... but for its tenderness and meaning.

The more I hear his music the more I realize just what a spectacular talent he has. He is also a multi-instrumentalist. Plays a bass guitar, banjo,and a piano. As far as I'm concerned he's one of a kind. Great artist!!!!

beautiful

I'm not as into guitar as i should be at this point, but after listening to soothsayer and now this, buckethead is a genius.

my mom is a heroin addict and this light to dark to light sound he does reminds me exactly of her because she used to be the best woman i know

Hey man. How are you doing right now?

when i am stressed out and hear this, it doesn't 'take me away' like some good music, it almost forces me to take a deep breath

This is a great vid! I wish I had every song from Colma live!!

i got a tear listening to this song

I love Buckethead because he shows us so much love with the music and the guitar. And he makes music that shows how much he care about he's parents. I wish buckethead were more known. He has all my respect. he's the best man.

Thanks son of mine for playing this for me. Love you, mom

I am so happy that someone posted this. I love this song. It is great to see a live acoustic performance by the one and only Bucketmaster. Man he totally PwnS all guitarists. My absolute favorite. A+++

Why don't we talk about how peaceful this song is :)?

I love this man.

The chicken man has a big, big heart. So beautiful....

buckethead is so good he can shred with feeling....

It's amazing how Buckethead *is awesome!* can play the heaviest of music to the fastest of shards and solos and then has the ability to play the most emotional and heart warming sounds ever to come from a guitar like soothsayer, for mom, watching the boats with my dad, electric tears and I love my parents. Buckethead, you are truly an inspiration to me and young musicians in the world. LONG LIVE BUCKETHEAD!

very soothing... i like it!

Beautiful man....

i like those irregular notes. adds to his unique style.

i calm down when i listen to this song its so nice :'( it make me cry

mesmerizing stuff

Producers tend to want to stick you in a box. Buckethead comes in a bucket and thus his music is far more varied.

sooo good.

Amazing...

Love to mother in the heavens;)

bucket's extremely talented at improv on the guitar, as can clearly be heard on this track. he's certainly, practically undeniably one the greatest of all time.
