  • You rock girl. Tough number to play for anyone, let alone only eight years old. That is amazing. Don't ever stop playing. Not with that talent. I'm really impressed. Thanks for sharing your skills.

  • emily bear is like 8 years old and she played it far more advanced :)

  • This young chick can really wail on the ivory.....she's tops!

  • a little tense with the right in some areas but well played

  • Sorry, but this is just awful. She needs to practice more and with a metronome. This song doesn't call for a pedal, either. Just reiterating what her teacher hopefully told her...

  • If you look closely, you can see the smoke coming of her hands -.-

  • BOOGIE BEE!

    What you don't like that??

    BOOGIE BUMBLE!!

  • WoW ,  wish i could play like that

  • my principal is having me learn this for my class's 8th grade play im so excited

  • thumbs up if you came here because of Liberace

  • Really great! I play piano too, I understand how hard that is! I am 13, and played Moonlight Sonata for people, and they didn't appreciate it! I was really ticked!

  • Wow!

    

  • i just learned this song. Im 13.

  • @ButtStrap13 I'm 12 and I'm learning it too (: I've never had any lessons.

  • Childuftheking, I think your playing is FANTASTIC! I love this video and I just subbed you because of it Keep it up. Ignore the ignorant comments by non-musician trolls. You are a great musician and I really enjoy your vids! Thanks.

  • lache pas tu es super bonne :-)

  • Just. Amazing.

  • you are amazing very good :) give us more please ..

  • That was really good.

  • woow that's nice! :)

  • 1:55 psiho :D

  • why does she put her speedy hand movements to waste by playing piano, those hands would be of far greater use washing dishes, vacum cleaning, or ironing

  • @ESmp40 sexist.

  • @ESmp40 sexist much? if you have nothing good to say don't say anything sheesh.

  • @TheOneAndOnlyMe92 Not sexist, just practical. besides, i did have something good to say, i complimented her quick hands and advised her of a possible future vocation which may prove successfull for her, im only being kind...

  • @ESmp40 So you think being a pianist isn't something useful? Do you know how much money pianist can make? A lot more than cleaning houses and washing dishes that's for sure.

  • @TheOneAndOnlyMe92 Well, usefull to herself yes, but to society? i think not. Now if she were a cleaner, then she'd be benifiting society and the lives of others more then just playing a piano. Now I hope your not going to reply by saying 'oh playing music benifits people because it makes them feel happy and gives them something to listen to etc' because thats just what people say when they are trying to make themselfes sound useful, when really, they arnt haha

  • @ESmp40 I'm not even going to bother replying to a comment as stupid and selfish as that one.

    Please do not reply to me anymore.

  • @TheOneAndOnlyMe92 i can reply to you if i want, its youtube, you cant tell me what to do, you biggot

  • @ESmp40 Wow that comment was lame. And 5 days late. Go live your life and stop commenting already it's becoming stupid this was like a week ago.

  • 10 people are allergic to bumble bees.

  • Let's give this child credit where due. lt's likely that while all her friends were hanging out on the streets or whatever,she was at home grafting away at the piano. She's probably traded a lot of leasure time to get where she is now. l say well done and good luck to her.

  • she is ugly... she could have practiced some more

  • just OK

    

  • @higuy546 can YOU do that? i don't think so. if you could, i would applaud.

  • I just read all 95 comments and anyone that said anything negative about this girl or her performance is an idiot! Absolutely beautiful!!!

  • Absolutely phenominal!!!!!!

  • how long did it take you to learn this? I'm trying soo hard right now.. I just can't seem to get it right. I have one month,

    You are really goood!

  • One word: YIKES

  • hahaha, of course is rare !! damn hell haha, u play very very well.

  • wow!! you are my new motivation when i don't feel like practicing piano!! :)

  • well done:)

  • That was awesome! I wish i could do that!

  • ooooooohh,, very good, congratulations!!!

  • I wish I could play that! Ur really good! :)

  • Comment removed

  • You play really good to be a 16 year old girl! :)

  • I've been looking for the fast version of this. I've found one by Liberace, and one with VERY poor quality audio. There have been others who ATTEMPT to play up to speed, but none as good as Ms. Sly here. My mistake was in searching for the original performers I see ;P

    Excellent, and not uncoordinated at all. Personally I believe the song should be played at a speed comparable to the original Flight of the Bumblebee, as it makes it that much cooler, and that much more technically challenging.

  • @Shottty101 try 8 year old Emily Bear, she`s awesome fast! And she plays it with great,um, Bumble Bee-ing feeling. "Emily Bear Academic All-Star Salute 5-27-2010" it starts at around 5:55ish

  • @ginnypinnydfjs er-sorry: 4:55ish i meant

  • Incredible!

  • is that a recital? because she should put her hands on her lap then gently put it on the piano keyboard then play. and not flexing her fingers on the piano. that's only done on recitals. just a tip! don't get mad!

  • Good job! I can play this song, but not quite as quickly as you can! At some parts you sounded like you were using the pedal, and I think that it adds a bit more boogie if you don't. But I loved it! :D

  • this song really is hard, you have to move the right hand so fast and it's like seven pages long. A good pianist can make it look easier than it is. good job!

  • its really 9 pgs long but its all good ;)

  • Where is the boogie-feeling of the song? It's called bumble bee BOOGIE, not some sort of weird interpretation that makes the left hand totally lame and the right hand sound just really uncoordinated, bleh, in my opinion this performance ruins the song

  • beautiful. and fun!!!

  • she must give a good hand job with hand skills like that :D

  • awesome!!!

  • wow! ur awesome! great job!!!!! hopefully i can play that one day! :)

  • Good job. Rushed it a bit (weird thing to say huh)

  • A beautifil girl a a good song XD

  • Unbelievable! That was brilliant! :)

  • You are INCREDIBLE! Suprised your hands didn't catch on fire they move so fast!!!! Seriously awesome job! Inspirational

  • holy crap. the right hand has to hurt at the end. very hard song to play. very nicely done

  • hahaha.. that's humor..

  • Wow great job.

  • Wow girl.  Very good job!!

  • she's fantastic! her right hand rushes and her left hand stays put on the rhythm. if she just works that out it'll be brilliant!

  • Wonderful.

  • Great!!!!!!!!

  • Wonderful!

  • wow!! good job, i really liked the way you did the glissandos on there! :D

  • buenaaaa

    i need the sheet too!!

    where can i get it??

  • i enjoyed it so much do you have the sheet?

  • U go gurl!~!

  • well played x

  • so fast

  • Fantastic. Need more of you people in the music business.

  • Then close your eyes next time you decide to come with a stupid comment like this and hit alt-f4 instead. Give her a break and some credits instead.

  • Ralalala, je l'envie.. ! :D

  • O__O

    Wouah

  • Ever seen Winifred Atwell playing this. And someone thinks this is a bit fast. You aint seen nothing nothing until dear old Winnnie lets her fingers do the talking on her famos honky tonk piano plus Liberace. This girl is superb !!

  • That was great..

  • Wow! Practice pays off! I know about little messups during a recital, it's hard to keep going, but you nailed it!

  • A pretty girl with talent! Now that's rare!

  • @petebj123 ha!

  • @petebj123

    WOOOWWW one stupid can write!!! awesome xDD

  • Gosh, this girl is amazing...:O

  • Wow!! I love it!! Ever since i was a kid and I saw a disney carton called "Bumble bee rock" and it was this version of it! Most cool playing you got a great talent!!

    You think I could get the music sheet from you?

    Thanks!

  • it's a bit faster!! how ever great version!!!

  • yeah. i was 11 when i learned this piece. im now learning malaguena

  • bravo

  • No offense but i still think the original song is harder, if you disagree, just say so, thats my opinion you dont need to get offended.

  • f'in hell, freakish, bravo!

  • Ow Ow, the Jack Fina version of the piece.. *looks at hurting right hand*

    Great performance! First video of that version I've seen on YouTube :)

  • Omg! She is so good! My friend danced to this song at a competition and won first overall for JR. Tap. Its such a fast song. Good job!

  • Looks and Style ;) like it!

  • damn...

  • my friend is only 13 and she is playing this for competition

  • my friend can play this...shes only 15. yeah! i wouldnt be able to play that for about another 2 yrs! lol

  • it is a magical interpretation! Beautiful... you are very talented!

  • i sware if you were english we would play boogie all night long lol fit lol nah very good

  • i love the tune Bumble Boogie and i have watched all the versions on youtube and i have to say, next to the Jules Holland one, this is the best for getting the feel of the piece, as well as getting the rise and fall and emotion almost spot on.

    well done.

  • Cute and talented! Not neccessarily in that order! Keep on rocking!

  • i like this....

    mutch more than the origanal,

    flight of the bumble bee.

    amazing job!!

    -alex

  • My jaw is dropped to the floor. Totally cool.

  • right on, keep up the good work. my advice is listen to Albert Ammons and Meade Lux Lewis as much as possible and practice with a metronome or good drummer whenever you can.

  • simply amazing :D i wish i had a talent like that lol XD

  • America has talent.......and she's sitting at this piano. BRAVO!!

  • nice :)

  • I'd play that if you know what I mean...

  • yeah! Thats a difficult tune to master..Good job!

  • perfect !! this is very difficult song

  • Rock on Girl.

    You are not a girl,

    you are THE Girl!!!

  • you are so talented~ *wish i could play like this!* hehe

  • Very good!
