First off, AWESOME face at the end. Second, WOW. I'm 14 and play bass, and I feel the need to go learn that now.. But yet, I'll fail at it. Cause I'm nowhere near as good as that xD RIP Cliff.
I am on the FLOOR!!!!! That was so AWESOME!!!!!! Cliff would be very very proud and so would the rest of the boys in METALLICA!!!!!! Keep rocking lil lady, Love Peace and METAL!!!!!!
@tamnabo Ignore the remarks about the title. Do these people bitch at the coffee shop when they see a sign that says Worlds Best Cup of Coffee? Most people get it. Worlds Best Donut, Worlds Greatest Car; its marketing. There isn't one successful biz or entertainer that didn't have a 'get in your face' attitude. They say 'look at me I'm the best'. They all do it whether they sell donuts, software, or bibles. Some will think its the Best and some won't; it's an opinion. Great video, ignore them.
@theobviousone1 - The last commenter, mkwlord, actually used keyword marketing. He replied again calling me a Misleading View Whore. I approve of his attempt at extreme keyword marketing to gain notice for himself and his comment, but I'm a kid who puts up videos of herself playing guitar...calling me a whore seemed more like keyword bashing. His comment was deleted. Thanks for your support theobviousone1
While other people just admire Burton's masterpieces by listening to them, this woman took a giant step past everybody else and actually took on the task of actually learning his greatest work. Bravo, great cover. Please continue playing =D
i dare anyone out there to say that at 14 years old, they were or are better than this girl! she is absolutely amazing! why do people have to critisize people so much. i would like to here how good these people are. this girl has practiced so hard i'm sure. so i say screw you to the people who like to be music critics. girl i am totally blown away! out of all the people i know who play bass, you are my favorite. keep rockin!
@russthedeerslayer - Thank you for your nice comments. I'm glad some people 'get it'. I'm not claiming to be Cliff or anyone else. This is my cover/tribute, therefore it is just mine. There are also a lot of 'dislikes' on Cliff doing his own solo.....go figure. Thanks again....the nice comments keep me going! :)
@russthedeerslayer I am thirteen, and I can play this song. sure, I can say I can play it, but I know that everyone is different. just because you can play a song doesn't make you great, it's what you can play on the fly, what you can improvise, that shows how good you are.
@russthedeerslayer Agreed. Listen people, she is 14, and playing a bass riff from Metallica. Not Hannah Montana...Metallica.
Regardless, even, of your opinion on Metallica, I am glad to see a 14 year old trying this (regardless of how well, and she is good btw) than what most kids care about these days.
i never new girls like distortion :) 90% perfect play about 70% better then most covers on here but those drums didnt go down well would have been better with just bass but effects are pretty much down to a T CLB RIP
you're awesome sweets i was 13 when this came out and I listened to it over and over again I've watched all of your vids you rule do I see some irish in you? you're cute as hell!! keep on rockin'
I'm a little worried; "worlds greatest 14 year old female bassist"? I've seen some DAMN good covers here, but I wouldn't ever go as far as to say "world's greatest". Pride brings arrogance; modesty is what wins people over.
@Edvachien Even though I am proud of my hard work, none of my videos are about pride, arrogance or modesty. The title is a marketing tool, nothing more. You found me as do many others. Hopefully it will be my dedication and talent that win people over, not my marketing technique.
@Edvachien 1) This girl can fricking thump. 2) She shares her art and you critique her title.3) Modesty doesnt win anyone over , Talent does! We use modesty so people with very little talent ,skill, or luck , wont let the envy turn to anger. 4) This girl can fricking thump. .....I know , i know but it needed said twice .
Remarkable. Just...remarkable. You obviously have the passion. At your age, I was lucky to make it all the way through "Louie Louie", lol. It would be an honor if you could drop by my channel and see me play/sing "Blood and Roses". Also, give a listen to "Attack!", by The Toys. Really fun, melodic bass line.
I am very impressed! You are very talented, Abagail. Especially being only 14! You pretty much nailed this whole solo; I have seen a whole lot of people attempt this and yours is better than at least 95% of them. Great use of the wah pedal, too - in just the right spots. Rock on!!
Best cover of this song. Ever. I've been playing bass for over 20 years and haven't heard anyone play it that well. It's really weird I found this video, because today I had an autographed copy of Kill Em All with Cliff's auto on it turn up.
wow you fuckin WILD!!!! Someone get this girl in a straight jacket! also, who would have thought Cliff would be re-incarnated as a 14 y/o girl playin a Daisy? \m/
nice sound man, what you usin there? and nice bass too the head stock look like schecter though this kinda doesnt look like one, anyway love the sound gimme some detail i play out of a morley and big muff
YOU F'ING ROCK!!!! Sweetheart, I used to play when I was your age and I could play any song by ear alone - never took a lesson... then I started to date a guy who didn't think girls should play guitar - I was dumb enough to listen!! I am now 39 years old and have a daughter who plays guitar and I will be damned if anybody ever talks her out of it! The only thing I kept doing was singing, and the only good thing about that is I have a lot less to carry to a gig... but I did marry a drummer!
@finikss LOL - I bet she can play it better than you - while you use your little finger. It sounds bad ass. x.o (In case you are wondering - I don't want you to spend your entire day searching the internet for what that means) - it means black eye...bitch!
@finikss you must be referring to the common misconception that Cliff plucked with his right hand pinky. As far as I know he actually didn't, it was stuck straight due to an injury. This gave the appearance he was plucking with it, when he actually was not.
cliff would be green with envy, i know i am ! u nailed it on every level, skill- tone-whah-attitude, only thing missing was the head banging, & thats just for show. helluva job !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i been playing that for 20 years and you are way better at that one than i am!! GREAT JOB!! if i close my eyes i would not know the differance between you and cliff.
You have got to b kidding me! I was in awe from the get go. I have no words to describe the joy that brought me. Thank you
