      A lot of the School of Rock guys have rather immature voices. It's normal at that age for the girls to sound older, they mature faster. But this guy was right on the fucking money! And this is not a easy song to perform!

      @steveblaine4691 4 роки тому +5

      @@onionsoup6813 I agree, I am pretty sure it is a viola. The dead give-away is how wide the instrument is, and the position of the chin rest. On a violin the chin rest covers more than half the instrument, the viola's chin rest barely hits halfway. Either way though, she does a really nice job playing it.

    This song is tricky -- you have to build the intensity through the song by not rushing, while also not dragging the tempo. The lead singer and the drummer are absolutely key in building and keeping the intensity. They nailed it. You can even see in the breaks after the chorus that the whole band knows they are hitting it, and the confidence just flows from there. Great job.
