      However rudimentary find a way to record yourself. The amount you would have improved would be ridiculous. I started playing guitar when I was 16 and compared to my peers I sucked but I kept recording here and there and when I was in a similar spot I went back and listened / watched and the difference was night and day. Eventually I went on to play live for many years. Only benchmark against yourself, you’ll get there.

And these videos really help me to get familiarized with the instrument, thanks Julia! Also. Long Live the Chili Peppers
    (Edit): I've got it... It's amazing, now I will study it to be a good bass player))))

      Well, maybe because it doesn't sound like the original with the bass that loud?! I have no idea what people could possibly expect when it says 'bass cover' after the title.
      Or maybe they're even dumber and think she isn't really playing, I've seen people like that on similar videos, the mentally limited have an unlimited potential of stupidity.
      But she still may probably have the best overall like/dislike ratio on YT!

    I can't stop watching this, it's so good lol. And you add in a few notes here and there that aren't in the OG version and it really makes the song even better.
    Julia: I played the piano for 12 years, from the time I was 6 years old to the time I was 18 and then I quit. I won a lot of awards and concert trophies, including my school-wide talent show at 10. People called me a prodigy. I wasn't -- I just practiced a lot. I always doubted my own skill relative to how many other people in the world are awesome at the piano, and that eventually led to me quitting. Don't do what I did. You are amazing. Keep playing and never quit!!!

      I'm 60 yrs old and started playing the bass 2 1/2 yrs ago, and in 10 yrs I won't be as good as Julia was at 15-16 yrs old after only playing 2 yrs. That doesn't bother me at all, because I enjoy it playing.
