A solo arrangment of Gotye's tune, "Somebody That I Use To Know". Played without any overdubs.

 
His hands look like they are just dancing around all over the neck...
It's an amazing instrument and every talented player can bring a completely different sound out of it.
It takes amazing skills to make it work so well.
 
His use of natural and artificial harmonics while maintaining the rhythm parts is amazing. Not to mention the strumming of chords in an almost flamenco style and the duo tonic slides to emulate the vocal harmonies in the melody. Very nicely done.

I have never seen that done before - at least nowhere to the extent he uses it. Amazing and quite different.
