YYZ x Rush / 11yrold + organ = awesome
RJG | 10:08 PM on 08.25.2008 15 comments


I just found this on Reddit. It's kinda VGR, on account of the song being in Guitar Hero and because, well, who didn't listen to some Rush when playing NES way back when? Also, the "all Rush mixtape" from Futurama's Nintendo 64 episode kind of counts too.

Anyway, behold.



Just found out she also has a cover of Carry On My Wayward Son by Kansas as well. Holy shit.



Is this post awesome? Vote it up!

She's slightly off on a few parts on the Rush one- it's sort of automated in the beginning during the off beats. Nice finish, though.

/end Rush snobbery

Now if she would just play the ULTIMATE song-- Boston's More Than A Feeling. But yes, holy shit indeed.

@Mix, well don't I just feel like a tool. At least I included a new one. :P

@HeavyD: Yeah, I was hoping for a More Than A Feeling cover as well, but no dice. Does she take requests?

Japan shows the world, yet again, how superior they are.

The Pirates of the Caribbean music cover that shes done (in the related videos of the two videos) was just as amazing as those two videos.

And people said mine was old. I should have thrown in something new too then everyone would have forgiven me.

I love the keyboard.


Though, the Japanese or someone, needs to remix Lights In The Sky.

That would be badass.

Oohh, Lights in the Sky, German edition....

Jesus. The organ is by my opinion, the ultimate instrument. Forget just using your hands or arms, you use pretty much your entire damn body, then, unlike drums, you actually have to construct the melody instead of the rhythm. And this girl is right on the border of "virtuoso." Fuck, I feel all insignificant and talentless now. :(
