So what you're saying is that your wife walked in while you were watching?

The point we've missed (not those two) - SHE'S PLAYING A GUITAR!! There is still a small glimmer of hope that the guitar won't go the way of the dinosaur or accordion. For a while.

You know, as odd as it is that huge percentages of the current youth population feel the need to be on YouTube for everything, I'm impressed with anyone who will upload a video of them performing to it. I mean, you just KNOW someone will tear you to shreds (or in her case, just talk about her body). Do they not read the comments? Do they not care about the negative responses? Most people I know who play would never find the stones to post a video of them playing solo to YouTube.

OK, she's singing Highway To Hell which is THE girly AC-DC song. When my son's band plays that song the girls stand up and shout. She's also a candidate for the boobies thread which is very welcome. Oh, and good looking anyway. The interpretation is great. She's singing and playing it nicely.

i did cover Bulls on Parade and Guerrilla Radio I don't look that good doing it

Honestly, it's easy to joke about because, as Dasein pointed out, there's nothing really new or remarkable about her performance. Pretty face, nice voice, adequate but IMO boring guitar work and a lovely rack. Meh. There are a gazillion hopefuls like her, clamoring to get their view counts up to a number that will yield some kind of financial or career fruit. To be blunt as spoon, re: performers- you gotta have more going for you than that to keep my attention.

:lol: That's funny, SVL! But I'll play: Jack ass, I'll see your sweat pants and raise you a t-shirt and beat-to-shit flannel. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wj_ArKTxEkE and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wpjdegROeA

I like this

I'd chalk it up to one of several things: an irresistible desire to be seen, an unquenchable thirst for fame (in whatever form) and/or copious amounts of encouragement/ accolades (deserved, well-intentioned or otherwise) already. Never underestimate peoples desire to stroke their egos even if it would backfire. Should we apply that too to the 8 years old and 4 years old starting to play ANY instrument??? What happened to encouraging the playing??the interest taken, the hours of practice? the BALLS to make it public?? WTF!!!! edited to add: at 17..there is no ego formed yet. In any case, is called confidence building, and all those who remember their very first gig in public, may remember. And with so much bullying and suicide rates, people need more accolades today than ever...specially for picking up good habits like guitar playing. Go further, a 50-60 years old, that after so many years, finally can get up and play guitar: if he post something, is not ego, cause he just started, is confidence building. you think it could be fame thirst?? Middle-age guys that travel miles and miles, to be together and jam once a year...is it ego?? Is it an irresistible desire to be seen?? Thirst for fame???Why don't they stay home?? The world would be a WAY better place with more people being positive about others... I'm gonna have to disagree. Kids are VERY ego-centric even as early as 2 or 3 years old. Their entire existence is predicated on serving and satisfying their needs and desires. As for 17 year olds? Yeah, more tempered and perhaps restrained but still there, still clamoring to be acknowledged. Been teaching high school, middle school and running summer camps for 5 year olds thru 15 year olds for 20 + years so I have a bit of personal experience in this regard. My comments are not out of line with what likely drives many teens to post on YouTube and other social media sites. It's not meant to bash the young lady nor to disparage youths from trying out musical instruments or ANY artistic endeavor for that matter. (Did I mention that I've run a guitar club at school for the last 15 years? Or that I teach art to youths as my profession as well as a side job?) It's just a documented fact that teens tend to seek out acceptance for both their artistic endeavors and for themselves as individuals on sites like YouTube. In truth, it does tend to color my perception as to what really is motivating them.

My fave part? The fact that her boobs keep perfect time. A regular "Tit-ronome" happening here. The ta-ta's are real (just pushed waaaaay up, giving the illusion of a larger size). The voice is nice, but not mind blowing. The guitar playing? Decent, nothing spectacular but it appears she doesn't aspire to be Orianthi anyway. Lots of these gals (and guys) out there, I give 'em all credit and wish 'em all the best.

Picky bitches! She is SO hot, sings well, plays fine and she's SO hawt! Check out her Kiss Me version from six pence none the richer. It shows a softer vocal quality. Anyway, check out this link as well. A very talented computer artist painting a picture of her. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UamPpTSM2mc

Get some cold water sweetie, you'll see

Please, she's 17..no fake boobs (she's normal, not a reality tv person) She only have 7 years of guitar...take a look at her other stuff She has a lot of road to cover...and she'll beat our asses doing it and she's gorgeous!! so please, beaches...

She ain't Orithani, but she's no Orthrelm/Mick Barr either, thank God. For a early morning listen after a three-day holiday weekend, I can dig it.

I like it! Plus, it's a good video to steal chords from.

I'm just glad she's beautiful, she plays well, and she sing beautifully.

To be fair (and a spoil sport) I just want and expect more for myself than this. There's nothing smart here -- it's lowest common denominator stuff. This is diet coke at best. EDITED: to remove some smart assed comments.

She'll be twerking on TV in no time...

Okay, someone's gotta do it: I've seen 8-year-olds smile more she did. She looked bored. Her phrasing and/or intonation sucked. Did I miss any? (full disclosure: Just like the 8-year-old we joke-trashed previously, she displays more talent in one video than I have my entire life. Please don't take statements on a message board as always fully representative of my true views. I see no reason to let truth stand in the way of a good smartass joke. Or, sometimes, even a ridiculously bad smartass joke. Or a dumb-ass joke, for that matter)

i think she's using a fan too... She can use THIS fan......Anytime.

Dread's first two albums are in constant rotation in my music collection. Have been for twenty years. Never gets old. I've deciphered many a Zeppelin lyric thanks to Tortelvis.

Here's some bass noodling on one of my very first instruments-- (a '89 Peavey Fury with several mods-- with some active Duncan pickups) playing through some lullabyes my Mom would sing to me as a kid..
