I’m a big fan of Kansas and love the song Carry On Wayward Son. Obviously the song is a classic. It’s got some serious guitar work, drums, keyboard… well it’s got just about everything a good old rock band needs. Except, that is, a 10 year old girl!
Luckily I’ve got just the prescription for them.
I wish I knew something else about the little girl in the following video, but what I do know is that she pretty much plays every instrument in this song on a Yamaha keyboard all at the same time! At times while I’m watching it I seriously wonder if she is really playing it, but it’s far too good of an act not to be for real.
By the way, thanks to Charles Stricklin for finding this little gem.
Incidentally, if you’ve never seen the original, or don’t know the song, here it is:
I think its Carry on my wayward son
WOW, she did a great job. I could not do that in a million years…lol
What amazing coordination and precision. What some kids do with video games, she does on the keyboard; the difference being, what she does gives pleasure to others.
Does it seem that we have a higher number of prodigies in children these days? Or are we just hearing about them more often because of better communication?
Woow! I was not expecting this. The beginning was quite tranquil. I was getting ready for some classical music :)
Rock out 10-year-old girl! I love this song — it’s at the start of one of my work out mixes. Thanks for the video.
I’ve got to give credit to Aaron Brazell and his Twitter peeps for the link.
She also does a GREAT YYZ by Rush. This girl is highly talented.
