What A Glorious Age It Is

Ready for this?  10 Million people have watched this video...

We live in an age when a cat idly tapping keys is more popular than most TV shows.  We live in an age where we can watch someone else's cat idly tapping on keys whenever we want.  We live in an when anyone with an idea, a video camera, a recording device and a modem can become hugely famous overnight.  In other words, we live in an amazing age and I, for one, love it.  Though it's stupid and took no talent, the video above has been watched 10 million times.  Imagine what all of you - people with talent - can do.  _

This moment of idealism brought to you by the good mood I'm currently in._SPLIT__

When can we see this artist live ? Will she also come to Europe ?
Hello.........(wink) NO TALENT ???.
Watch one more time.In the part the Artist plays with the Student (novice).What i see and hear there is that the Artist is a great MASTER of Improvisation.Like a real good Jazz Musician.She looks and then she gets the feel for the Music and plays,
What is see also is that she plays with heart and soul.
OPINION !!! I think i have now read here many many blogs about Musicans but this one here is the MOST AWESOME i ever have see here in a blog.NO one of the other had this energy,heart ,soul and feel for music and what it is in real as this MEGA MONSTER COOL SUPER HYPER GOOD AWESOME ARTIST.
