The next Keith Emerson / Rick Wakeman is a girl - and she rocks!

Title Edited to correct brain freeze... duh!!!

These videos have to be seen to be believed.  What we have here is a 10 or 11 year old Japanese girl arranging and playing entire rock songs on an electric organ.

I'm blown away.  No other way of saying it.

"Carry on Wayward Son" by Kansas




"YYZ" by Rush - I love the Rush t-shirt she's wearing!

That chick ROCKS!

Great find - she is amazing.  I caught myself fast forwarding through the songs though - I probably listened to about 50% with a big grin on my face, but I didn't have the patience for the whole song.

That said - I was happy I caught the tail end of each song - those were the funniest/saddest parts.  A big part of me just expected the audience to erupt in appreciation - instead it almost sounded like some uncertain clapping like 'is she done?... oh well she's walking away so sure let's clap...' 

I'm sure some of that could be cultural - and it's even funnier to think of this girl going up against all the other child prodigy kids playing strait classical and the other mom's not quite 'getting' the subject.

I hope we'll see more of her someday and she gets some real applause.

That is fecking awsome. She cheated with the pre-programed drum parts, but who cares. Outstanding!

(I never get tired of YYZ)

OK, that's humbling. I struggle to play YYZ with a bass, but she's doing it with bass pedals. 

Pretty amazing.
