Carry On Wayward Son

Age: Many of my professional musician friends could play more complicated pieces before 10, and by 10 were already learning how to improvise variations. So, she is not all that special musical wise.

She has excellent co-ordination. But it's hard to say how good she is at the 'art' of keyboarding, as after practicing a difficult piece like this relentlessly, it ain't so difficult anymore. So the skill is sometimes just in the patience and practice, and as she wasn't reading the notes, I would say that is the case here.

What pisses me off is people who say they can do it much better. If you're so proud of your skills of doing things in videos much better why wasn't it you in the video?

I can see some of you had questions about how she did it. The beat is pre-programmed; it's just in the place of having a real drum kit and drummer, so don't complain about that. You do have to give her credit for playing three instruments at the same time, though - the bass guitar with her left foot (each pedal is a different note), the organ or piano with her left hand on the middle keyboard, and the electric guitar or piano with her right hand on the upper keyboard. She also adjusted volume with the right pedal and right foot, and sometimes she would leave the volume alone and do some pitch bending with the left pedal and right foot. You heard that mostly during the later guitar solos. Pretty f***ing awesome if you ask me. Try it yourself so

Oh, and congratulations on not being a sheep. Still, beauty, as it goes, is in the eye of the beholder.

Seriously. Unless you can do it, don't say "It probably isn't too hard."

id expect more from the japanese.

Most keyboards have several settings, guitar, organ, ect being some of those. She's probably got it pre-set to change instruments on a time, which would mean she'd have to have her timing perfect.

Everyone else probably played Chopsticks.. etc etc.
I'd be shocked if someone played that at a piano concert around here (but I would also go nuts clapping and cheering).

That girl has talent.

they dont go crazy because thats not very japanese. the polite clapping is. you got to realize that this is a auditorium filled with mothers probably. they most likely done even know this song.

I read someone on here talk about being able to play this on Guitar Hero.. lol, this is a bit harder.
