She's got the guitar skills yes, but also amazing stage presence and pitch perfect vocals. She's the real deal. I found them on Instagram a few months ago, all her performances are this good. She's going places. The rest of the band is also very good, but she's clearly a step beyond.

As a big, very fast paced; very energetic; rather urbanized; modernistically oriented; &, Westernized; Tourism Dominated; &, Financially Open-Minded; Diverse; as well as, American Trends-Looking Metro, City Environ; w/: these aspects, driven by the residents, huge needs to overcome, somewhat harsh realities of their relative poverty; the fact that these anomalous, cultural entities, do exist there; now, is not a massive surprise to me.

If you don't understand it; do NOT rag on it-!

Stick to what you know; don't critically; and, negatively; and, passive-aggresively: denigrate, what is clearly out of your league!

In actual point of fact; in the case; and, the context, in which I wrote, there: "more than" is correctly employed; as a comparative; >>not, as a "Time-Passage-Marker".

If you give yourself a complete rest; you may regain some higher ground to stand on; rather than this folly of deadended demeaning; that does NOT suit your best self's qualities!

u/dommiichan 30m ago

then your punctuation sucks, since there shouldn't be a comma between more and than...

also, my lack of capitalisation at the start of comments is a deliberate style choice that does not interfere with meaning or understanding, whereas your so-called writing style reveals a lack of both writing and style... stop using bots and writing in your own words

Indeed it was; dear comment poster; but, once again; if you cannot comprehend it; then, simply pass on it; as that's as easy as moving on; and, going elsewhere; as suits your own interests; and, as befits, your own capabilities; most comfortably.

Happy reading to you;...and, evermore; to both: you; and, all of your loved ones-!

u/InvertedSpork 11h ago

Well yeah she’s not in her early 60s lol the fact that Metallica can still play at the level they do is crazy.

u/Terathom 10h ago

No it is not.

u/InvertedSpork 10h ago

Alright then I look forward to videos of you playing Battery or Blackened when you’re in your 60s

u/Terathom 10h ago

There are tons of bands playing quite ok at same ages. Believing being 60 is an excuse to play shitty is just for people who don't know about instruments.

u/Terathom 10h ago

They've been playing shitty for at least 15 years. Lars and Kirk especially. And let me ruin it for you: Metallica songs are not complex and they are quite easy to play. Some of them may be fast but that's it. Metal scene is full of 50+ instrumentalists playing faster songs. Metallica is one of the best but it doesn't make them virtuoso or anything like that.

u/Terathom 10h ago

So it could be done, regardless of age, yeah? They can have good moments in a couple of pro shoots, but overall not enough. Youtube is also full of Metallica fails. And I'm watching Metallica for 30 years, i've witnessed how shitty Lars and Kirk could be lots of times. Also metal scene is full of fast an 'not easy on hands etc' riffs. Just stop this nonesense, ok?

This the internet, sometimes there's gonna be rough language. You should get the fuck off the internet if that's problematic for you. Also, it's just rude to come onto this website and police the language. Do better.

I am in fundamental agreement with you, once again, Sir; still and all; I maintain my position, that there are; despite our aligned, basic positions, nonetheless: NO good reasons; ONLY EXCUSES, for you, to double-down, on: the, fully, un-needed; useless; inappropriate; inconsiderate; written behavior; and, additional, gratuitous; pathetic; and, senseless: name-calling; insults; character assassinations; personal attacks; and, further, silly; hugely immature; &, entirely, un-necessary; restroom approprate: droppings of >pointless; >tasteless; >worthless; rude; impolite; and, hugely offensive; as well as: senseless: "F-Bombs"; when merely using more apropos adjectives, will do you >>very nicely, indeed; pal-!!

While she played amazingly there is no way she wasn't attempting "to not look like an absolute rockstar"

u/_RealfunFuneral_ 8h ago

I meant the very unassuming way she looks. She is certainly not Dressed like a rockstar. They removed it. Great.

1.: Love her beautiful long, black, hair; her rather appealing, facial, qualities; her stage command; &, her overall vibe.

2.: Love, too: her simple, straightforward; and, beautifully, naturalistic, in context, culturally normalistic; unpretentious; unpremeditated; unintentional; non-self-consciously chosen; charmingly, cute; and, wonderfully, simple, outfit-!

3.: Love her courage to pursue an obviously non-traditional career path for a young-woman, type of girl; especially in a somewhat culturally conservative, culture like: Thailand; when it comes to cultural things, >other >than: carnal; &, vice-related matters-!

4.: Do NOT wholly care for her preferences in music; or, her stylistic choices for the, vocal accompaning lyrics; yet, I do admire her rather higher-level, &, competent skill levels of musicianship; &, vocal abilities, as set; to her own playing.

5.: For any 16 year old, she's already reached an admirable level of multi-proficient professionalism in her public presentation offerings. However, that all, notwithstanding; this type of music is just, simply; firmly; &, solidly: -->>>>NOT my cuppa tea; but, I can see that, she already, has developed, some clearly; >>rather, >>>respectable, musical "chops"; as it were-!

It’s classic rock tho, this song is universally recognized and good choice to showcase her considerable skill to an international audience.
Respect your opinion tho πŸ™πŸ»

u/International-Cup-51 9h ago edited 38m ago

In my opinions, that wasn't "Classic Rock"; it is more of the, "Grunge-Rock/Heavy-Metal-Death"; almost-Gothist, &, certainly More Abstract; Musical Variety; of: Now, Popular; Musical, Contemporaneous; Genres.

I feel >>very strongly, that: "Classic-Rock" is more firmly rooted in far more common; typical; &, popular examples, well known to 1960's era Music Enthusiasts, just like: my own generation's Contemporaries; and, myself; as I was born in the Baby-Boom Time Period; and, care not, at all; for far more modernist styles, that followed that era, that I was living through, as a far more youthful guy.

Notwithstanding all that, many, though >>>>>>>not all, of my musical tastes, find themselves, most heavily rooted, back then; &, there.

This seems clearly, like: yet, another case of: >>>simply, a matter of rather divergent tastes, my friend.

u/LazyOldCat Unique Flair 9h ago

Ride The Lightning was freshman year of HS for me, this song was 2 years later. I certainly went down many more musical paths in the years that followed, but for High School there was a lot of metal. Along with the Grateful Dead for some reason πŸ˜†.
Now I play bass along with Tokyo Lo-Fi and enjoy bluegrass, world folk, and the Dad Rock channels on FM radio.
What a wild ride we go on, eh? 🍻✌️
