Sara 12-yrs on drums, play "YYZ" & drum solo at concert

[vikramas1109]

I told my dad I saw a video of a 12-year old girl killing it on Rush and he said "Damn I really should have looked into genetic engineering."

[1kccabledude]

DAMN!!! That girl can jam out on some drums now.

[davidl9999]

A little dry.Play "in the pocket". Good job on a hard song!

[apackerfan]

She's a lot farther along on the drums at 12 than I was.

[imOnMiiLevel]

Rush= MY LIFE! I love Geddy Lee, hes my inspiration. I play bass guitar, electric guitar, acoustic guitar, piano, keyboards, drums, trumpet, and i sing a little. RUSH IS AWESOME!!!!!<3

[deadly2426]

lol the bassist is usin a pick

[carini7487]

you know her dad whipped her 40 lashes if she fucked up

[Cherubimwings]

... more cowbell!

[766Pierre]

holy shit... what a power pack litlle ass...

[chase061009]

Plain and simple...This Kid is GOOD!

[Tochipa77]

I wish I had her talent at age 12.. you are fantastic!!!

[BrianColeman1797]

Okay, its bad enough that its a chick drummer, but shes asain? REALLY?! 7 out of 10 female drums are terrible. This is one of them.

[TFIFH]

@BrianColeman1797 U jelly bro?

[cryandsing]

Great guitar player too.

[lalokuava]

You're way ahead of the curve keep it up nicely done.

[jebby16]

That little girl is rockin!!!!! Great job.

[panzercanuck]

One thing is for sure Sara really is gifted,as for some of the remarks made by commentators here some seem really pathetic and just plain stupid.

Think before you type people.

[heinekenschoice]

awesome job!!

[ccam96]

Very , very good! Neil would be impressed , Sarah.

[TheJagzy]

UN " FREAKIN " REAL

[bazybeats]

Absolutely amazing for only 12. BzB :-)

[tutupatia]

ASIA is big. Stereotypes dont fit on all countries

[stevedrummer711]

1:18 what the heck kind of asian guitar is that? i have to say she's good but leave the rush playing to the canadians.......Lirxst...Dirk.­....and Pratt!

[Jul1anB]

@stevedrummer711 Thats a steinberger, they never go out of tune, thats why they have no headstock. learn about guitars before you go spouting bullshit.

[BillyBughead]

I hope Rush has seen this by now. The girl's got talent.

[fourstikks44]

HoLY #&i@T !! Thats wha i gotta say! 12 years old?? cmon!

Awesome!

KyM

[122294leelem]

amazing to even see a girl do that haha

[Mrvillepoika]

Dude, this bass player sucks !! Good drummer though :)

[slipknotmeep]

Oh god...

[MadeOfScars3030150]

Yeah guys, stop picking on the little girl. Make fun of the guy who thinks he can play bass. Or the "guitarist" with that wretched sounding tone.

[chronic9292]

eww a girl playing drums. drums are for men

[kawaiime007]

@chronic9292 so not true...

[BudMaryJane]

You guys r assholes. She's 12 and she can play drums very well, so shut up!!

[ALRULZ1965]

Wow one of those little 80's guitars! Cant remember who made them.

[Torpedomtb]

very nice.. I think she was spot on for skill and hits. I know Neal has a much larger drum kit but very good.

[Zildjianownsabianaha]

ZOMFG AN ASIAN BEHIND A DRUM!

[werewolfofdeath1]

real menplay the bass with their fingers. not friggin picks

[deaththekid212]

@werewolfofdeath1 YEAH!!!!

[CANAMO420]

holy fuckin shit! you kick travis barkers fagit white ass!!!

[AxJukeboXxHerOx]

that guy uses a pick and he still sucks on bass.

[MarkTube0]

More or Less

[Asylum709]

For 12 years old....she kicks ass on drums

[spyderkiller7]

they even take our music!

[lucasloislily]

@spyderkiller7 can't forget, if you're american they're canadian

[theolevy]

it doesnt matter how good are you in something...there will be always an asian kid who does it better...

[phosopolis]

@theolevy that was a hilarious comment!!!!!

[fortells]

@theolevy Stolen, if you're not funny, stealing other people's jokes isn't cool.

[kennyvrocks]

Holy Wow!!! There IS hope for our youth. I play with Bryce Kretz in a band called Rough Shot. Bryce is 13 and is a Fantastic Drummer as well. We wor 5 nights a week. I can fully appreciate this child's true talent. BRAVO SARA!!!

[EliasJordan3]

asians are always talented, but nobody's perfect, that's why they have tiny penises.

[Chavezoid]

@EliasJordan3 I once asked a whore that (not serving me, JIC)... and she said they were average, but that ironically the biggest she'd ever seen was on a Japanese guy...and the smallest on a black dude.

[puppiesarecute131]

@EliasJordan3 not every bodys likethat your rasist

[EliasJordan3]

@puppiesarecute131 women have no sense of humor

[puppiesarecute131]

@EliasJordan3 yes we do shutup idiot

[buddha1298]

@EliasJordan3 and youd know that how perv

[EliasJordan3]

@buddha1298 i pulled down their pants and checked, duh

[Pipespike9327]

@EliasJordan3 she is a girl...-___-

[atsstockburn]

@EliasJordan3

I'm pretty certain Sara doesn't have a penis. So you're a complete fuckin idiot, as well as all the other douche bags who voted thumbs up on your comment. Yep, that's a direct attack on you. Garner some respect you mental midget.

[EliasJordan3]

@atsstockburn Me so sorry if i offended your little penis, but it was not meant to be taken seriously.

[Kletusnkate]

@EliasJordan3 how are you able to see what you type, with that KKK hood over your head? Oh Justin Bieber fan...Okay that explains the low IQ and racist remarks

[mrboozey]

abesapien36: She is 12 years old and clearly very talented. I don't think talking about vaginas in the context of a 12 year old girl is at all appropriate. I suggest the only twat around here is the one you see in the mirror each morning.

[abesapien36]

@mrboozey im not gonna argue with you cuz youtube arguments insulting commenters are pointless and idiotic. but i will say that what i said had no sexual connotations to it, the only connotation was that she is a girl, and i was satirizing the view that girls are inferior.

[abesapien36]

um ok honestly this girl is not that good.

1) she has a vagina.

2) her bass drum is rushed and messes up her stickwork.

3) she has a vagina.

[BobbyJEL101]

@abesapien36 lol

[AustinTK2550]

The drum solos were rushed. No pun intended.

[tfarcraw13]

Me love this long time!!!

[matteskes]

That little girl fucking ROCKS.

[addyr100]

drumming was good but bass and guitar sucked

[cisrael468]

drummers ok

[CKDStudios]

base had a horrible sound so did guitar.... guitar hit alot of wrong notes but drumming was great

[katyornok63]

She misses the true drum part in many places, but great for a little girl!

[re4zach666]

I suck at math and my parents hate me playing drums but shit I play anyway and I'm pretty good too. So I just think if anything all u need is self motivation and coordination.

[Axeman2006]

Good job!!!

Nice kit and good sound also.

[marimba94]

Guitarist kinda sucked it up. lol Drumming was good though.

[TampaDrummerandrew]

How many people showed up to the concert?

[drumsrus100]

dang those sticks just fly up in the air...SERIOUSLY she's a beast!!

[Mrmanofangelfan]

wow your good you've made me want to learn it.

[chef8]

I love this kid!!!!!

Anyone who says anything otherwise is a complete fool!!!! Not only is she amazing, she is playing some of the most complicated stuff out!!!! All you asshole saying anything, lets see you do better!!!! Yea Right!!!

you ROCK LIL SWEETIE, DON'T LISTEN TO THE NEGATIVE FAGS!!

[Tall95Guy]

Incredible.......You are very talented girl!

[666triple6mafia]

too slow

[boratanice]

You play YYZ or no mo sushi

[90zosoman09]

@boratanice lol

[boratanice]

@90zosoman09 Or....You Pray RRZ or no mo Rice!!!!

[exitplan2]

@boratanice HAHAHA

[johnsonsbabypowder1]

@boratanice Go fuck yourself you racist prick



[Scarecrow6459]

Impressive, wish i had started when i was younger. I'm 16 and i'v been doing it for about a year and a half. She's pretty good, and that's regardless of her gender or age. Impressive.

[Charlesr6s603]

regardless of sex, 12 years old, good for you, learning dedication and hard work at that age will leave your life open to endless possibilities.

[goldnhowlrr]

music is seen as if men dominated it. men like to make things MANLY. so when a girl decides to do it, of course people are going to praise her. if we all didn't genderfied everything, then maybe we can all have great GIRLBOY bands.

get with it folks.

[Mattler119]

TOO SLOW!

[atlbruce]

Just...damn.

[dwdrums828]

im a better drummer then my friend who is a girl and people always tell her that was awesome but they always tell me that was good, just keep on practicing, its the fact that they are a girl, its not fair, but lifes not fair right

[thercguy]

Nice..12year old drummer...

[rhoads4lyfe]

ok YYZ. now play all 3 parts of 2112

[xXBmWGtR3Xx]

@rhoads4lyfe 5 actually :p

[Jakester523]

She can kick some ass

[FerralCat]

Girl, you are absolutely AWESOME!!! I hope that one day you'll get to tour with Rush. Best of luck!

[skull9111]

she is gonna be a house hold name when shes olde, by the way what is her name, and i think one of the guitars seems a little out off tune

[huge81supporter]

THIS KID IS AWSOME.GREAT TIMING AND KEEPS GOOD TEMPO.GREAT STAGE PRESANCE.SHE SHOWS UP THE REST OF THE BAND.HER FLIM-FLAMS DURING THE SOLO WRER RIGHT ON.AWSOME JOB SARA

[cuda955]

Neil would be very proud of you. You are awesome

[christopher2step]

probably looked up "Hardest drum lines in america"

and they're like

OMG!! THIS WILL IMPRESS THEM FOR SURE!

[natetheingrate]

@christopher2step Hardest drum lines in.....CANADA.

beeeaaaam.

[lameface12]

Neil Peart would be proud

[crazykillah911]

shes good for a 12 year old girl but you can tell that shes been taught

[ICON310]

this little girl is amazing.

[killhannahmontana]

alright well if she likes to play ALOT OF RUSH then have her hit the right cymbols in the begining of the song so she doesnt sound bad. and the bassist needs to go

[gibran800]

@killhannahmontana

really enjoyed your nick

[nosokyas]

i am so happy to see you play, Sara

[kat834]

outstanding!! Well done!!

[davizin1]

just discipline dont make you have feeling :/

[jdubincali]

WOW...what an awesome sound! They look like they had lots of fun, it's what it's all about...thanks for posting...love to see more.

[toddthecat]

Asians playing Rush...OMFG LOL BBQ!

[dtjanasiak]

plain and simple awesome!

[bcchamp2009]

fail...

[rhinobucketkixass]

WOW!!!!!!!!!!

[siblingXrivalry]

yawn

[Crapitsmatty]

I cant believe how many people are ripping into her. Shes extremely talented for her age and if her pattern of practice and dedication continue and mature as she ages, she could go anywhere with the talent she cultivates. Rock on Sara!

[pooladden]

@Crapitsmatty fuck man im 17 and she would kill me in a drum off. She is amazing! I wish I could play like that!

[155solcool]

your good

[345soccerlover]

i never believed should play drums or guitar or bass but she changed my mind great job!!!

[crazyj6996]

everybody just have your bitching remarks....but think about it.....12 years old!!!! thats awesome.....wish i could have had that gift at that age......

[jackdavis11]

bass= awful

[ModernLiterature]

Very robotic.

[WeBeChampionSauce]

@ModernLiterature listen to the actual song man, thats exactly how neil pert plays it.

[deathangel119]

@WeBeChampionSauce nope missing some double bass and off time by 1 count

[ou812bcool]

Regardless male or female for a 12 yr old this kid is really good. Is she perfect, no but she is playing with conviction, knows the song and from what I see she is having a blast playing it!!! Isn't that what playing is all about, having fun. I started playing in pubs in Scotland at age 11 and I too was heavily influenced by Rush. Playing a solo also takes guts and shows confidence. I say way to go Sara. Keep doing what you love to do because it shows!!!

[evanparker]

sara is nailing it, middle aged dudes in the band are missing notes left and right.

especially the dude playing bass. he's also playing with a pick.  uhg.

[UnrealFingerboards]

@evanparker you are very wrong.

[oxeverything]

i'm twelve to and i'm a drummer since 9 and i'm not even near this!!!!!1

[Meef1701]

Imagine how good she'll be at 32!

[NiNeX]

dam quality work right there

[metsapakana]

ha! unny to see/hear how adult (pro?) fellows couldn´t keep it in time when a devoted child does easily (ok she´s rare) and beats them smiling wide

[jage71]

BTW, if anyone looks for my video, I'm playing guitar, not drums. And the word "fail" is stupid when used like that. Go watch the new season of "The Hills."

[jage71]

Why are people posting negative comments? She's 12, and way better than I was when I was 12. Talk about no life, Kopnijtatewklate, It's not perfect, but impressive as hell. She's beating those drums too, not just hitting them. Where's the video of you playing it? I got one....

[Kopnijtatewklate]

guitar fail, bass fail and kid with no-life fail.

[fordmustang1000]

i only play drums when i can which isnt often because i dont have a drum kit but once i get one im gonna play it all the time.

[MTAFuelNFire]

....sweeeet

[Kastralis]

guitar tone fail..

[25Randomgirl]

DAMN i want your teacher. That was kick ass mann. nice kit btw. i play drums,guitar,keybord and sax. But i wish i was that good at all instruments!!

[Gr1zz3m]

dude this songs easy. i covered the guitar and drums to this song when i was 12 (im 14 now) lol i can all the parts of YYZ, and Tom Sawyer by myself on all instruments. this is pretty impressive tho.

[1994AlmostSkater]

@Gr1zz3m Haha! I no joke did the exact same thing last year. the YYZ part at least

[Chuichupachichi]

good teaching method + Japanese discipline = 12 year old "Kick Ass"

[90zosoman09]

@Chuichupachichi I'll tell you how it happened her parents went, "This is firsty of schoo an first day you come home wif B on Report Card I keeeeeeeeeel u! Oh also play YYZ or were gonna send you to a sweat shop." lol all in this kids fuckin badass.

[Iszil]

12 and playing like this... great!

she's even better than the other 2 guys.

[drumdown52]

This girl is awesome, I have been playing drums since I was 5 yrs old and I am now 52 and it took me three years to master Peart's YYZ solo. You go girl and I hope that you have a brilliant career as a drummer.

[DJalexC808]

bass you suck im 14 and i play this song better than you

[ThePajaromuerto]

sara.....you rooooockk¡¡¡

[InfernalPenguin]

dang can she kill that snare. she hits harder than I do and I'm twice her age.

[slashsdevil]

Cant say much about this video. Its just to good to really say anything else about. let the music do the talking

[SterlingRe]

She is phenomenal. Chops like this on a 12 year old girl is very cool.

[SillyMeProductions7]

Woh that's a really good cover

[kunkushun1]

this girl is crazy.

[UmbrarumCantus]

It's a little sad how much better she is than the adults attempting to play the song with her, but this is still pretty awesome.

[catman63879]

there is only word to discribe this little lady's playing, AWE-SOME!!! i would proudly be her drum tech any day of the week and twice on sunday!!! that was some sick drummin girl!! good job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[commomtater]

I hope i can see her play Xanadu

[Dimeshadowaremywings]

I want her for my band! My god what a drummer!.

[danolson68]

That kid can play!

[egotealsolvo]

I wish you, Sara, to be a girl forever, don`t grow, please. A clean soul for you.

[ACadaver]

HAHA, okay pedo.

[ALTDOK]

Not everything is sexual, right?

[ACadaver]

Haha, no, but the way he worded it was...funny to me, anyhow.

[jarlmaster47]

I find it funny too. That does sound pedo-ish to me.

[samurail337]

When people become adults they lose their innocence and forget about their childhood dreams, they trade their soul for financial securities, and become boring people who live 9-5 and don't even respect themselves anymore. It's a sad world.

[huahdiecur21]

kill yourself, you miserable bastard.

[MST3Kfanatic]

2 words: Sara rocks, great cover of a great song

[bandgeekdrummer13]

@MST3Kfanatic thats more than 2 words....

hahaha just kidding bro im just being a smartass cuz im bored :P

[mattisprettycool]

Seriously, lets not be sexist here. If it was a 12 year old boy who practiced every day like crazy, we'd say "wow, you're very good, and if you practice more, you'll be even better." But since it's a girl everyone seems to act incredibly surprised. She is very good, but she's no superstar. She's as good as any crazy practicing young teen would do.

[WastedDaze78]

@mattisprettycool... boy or girl she's awesome... and so are the other 2.... but for real that would be great for a 20 year old.

[ALTDOK]

True that, mate!

[dmbrandon]

@mattisprettycool Was your drumming teacher named Mr. Morton's?

[Chulaan]

@mattisprettycool I think the true surprise comes from the fact that its a girl AND she's playing Rush. The guy to girl Rush ratio is about 1000 to 1

[XxiiTzFOSHOxX]

So? Just because she's a girl doesn't mean she's the greatest in the world. That's what everyone's making her out to be. She's great, don't get me wrong. I'm a 16 year old female and I play stuff like Guns N' Roses, Bullet For My Valentine, Iron Maiden, As I Lay Dying, Dropkick Murphys, etc. There are other female drummers, too, man.

[Chulaan]

@XxiiTzFOSHOxX lol wasn't making her out to be the best. Calm down. Not many women listen to Rush. That's all I was saying.

[XxiiTzFOSHOxX]

@Chulaan lol don't worry. I'm not mad or anything. xD

[jasumirp]

@mattisprettycool she definitely is a superstar for her age.

[KitWriter]

@mattisprettycool Most 12 year olds don't have the focus this kid does. It takes math, practice and musically nurturing parents. The fact it's a girl is COOLER because lets face it... as a drummer and a guy, I think chick drummers are awesome. In a few years, she's going to grow up to be a HOT cool chick drummer. xD

And... she's playing Rush. Seriously. I love it. Endurance and strength are important in drumming like this... and it's a girl doing it. And better than most boys. PRO!

[willkeil]

sheila e is one famous female drummer...look her up

[slickkery]

GRRRRRRRITAH!!! That's the only way to describe her mastery of Peart's battery. Too bad the tanes are the taneyist I ever did study this side of Taneytown.

[mathsucksmetalrocks]

idk why people make fun of her when i bet they cant play any better..shes frikin awesome!! keep rocking

[willkeil]

No matter what anyone says...Sara is a Great Drum Player....In time she will play with the best of them..She has the gift of drumming.You go Girl..

[Cylical]

@willkeil name one famous girl drummer :)
