That's how I started and now I know how to read music and I am 150% better than I was.

All of you people who have to constantly point out that there are mistakes: FUCK OFF!!! There's nothing wrong with varying parts of songs. If you're gonna cover a song, and you play it EXACTLY like the original artist did, you might as well stop and let the original artist play it. Cuz if you are just gonna play it exactly like it was recorded, you are nothing more than an unoriginal clone trying to fly on someone else's ride. This kid is amazing.

He plays this very well minus the few imperfections which are to be expected...after all he is only human. Very nicely played "metal" breakdown on the piano. My whole thing is I have seen a million people who can play covers like this. I've found it's a lot easier to play other peoples music than it is to write your own. I give the player many kudos for taking the time to learn this whole song skillfully. But i won't tell him he is a virtuoso until he can write a piece like this. Very nice.

In music, no matter how well written or played a piece is, it's never perfect. There is no 'perfect' music. It's the nuances and mistakes that make it the performer's own. I'm a drummer, I play by ear, and by no means do I play a cover verbatim. I make it my own, changing fills here and there, but keep the overall road map the same. I understand music pretty well, I can hear a note and know exactly what it is (perfect pitch, and I'm a drummer. Irony much?), and I didn't hear anything off key in the video. All the notes played were musically correct. Sure, he didn't do the sixtuplets in the latter half, but unless you're a black metal drummer (or the drummer from the black dahlia murder), and you can play blast beats REAL quick, or just have a real quick hand, it's dang near impossible to play all three of the keys in the power chord (1 5 and 8th of the scale) as fast as needed in this song. Bottom line: This young man (not "boy" or "kid") has talent. Sure he has a long way to go, just as I or anyone else does, but he sure as hell has come a long ass way too. He has incredible potential, which he's already taking advantage of. I strongly encourage him, and everyone else, no matter how little or how much musical talent you have, to jump all over it, practice endlessly and expand the living crap out of your musicianship. It's very well worth it. Many kudos to the performer in this video. Rock on, headbang till your head's about to fall off, and keep rockin. -Paddy No matter how good anyone is, they still have a long way to go.
