  • The Alto Princess in her absolute prime. Fans should freeze it at 3:49 for a look of pure joy in her performance. As the Japanese would, and probably did, say, this concert was subarashii!

  • The Carpenters freakin rock, if you disagree your loss. What a funky drummer too, Kags miss yeh girl you were proper special!

  • man she could really play that kit...So Phat!!

  • She's singing the beatles...lol...That I never exptected....THANKS FOR THIS UPLOAD!!! :D

  • @cruice45 Or check out the Johnny B. Good cover they did in 1974 in Japan

  • @Vericacious If you can supply the required quality and complexity, then good for you. I don't think a comparison of fingers with limbs is useful, though- finger usage becomes largely second nature with mastery of an instrument. The important element is the physical effort required to play the drums that affects breath control required for singing. (I wish I'd explained better and put that last sentence before- I got too involved in cutting down to the required number of characters.)

  • @Vericacious: Whoever told you that playing drums was hard? Any musician that I've ever played with seemed to think that drummers were just one step above cavemen.

  • @Vericacious: Think of all Richard is doing: singing harmony (that requires more concentration than singing melody), playing bass, chord accompaniment, tasty fills, counter melodies, awesome jazzy mini-solos, and burning up & down the keyboard, + listening to every single note that every musician in the band and orchestra is playing, and if anyone's out of tune he'll hear about it later. Now *that's* amazing and trust me, that's *way* harder than playing the drums.

  • @TheLarryBrown You haven't tried to do it, then ? It's so unusual because it's so difficult. With a guitar, you just use your hands, while with a piano you're just pressing (keys/pedals). The drums are much more physically demanding- to play the high-hat and bass drum, you have to pound those pedals, while also playing the tom-toms and cymbals as shown- keeping 4 rhythms going at once. Then there's the singing, which often has a different pace/rhythm altogether. And then add in complexity.
