Yeah, too bad the fucking trolls managed to bully her off of YT. This is why we can't have nice things... I do realize that she went to school but there are other very young YTers who went to school and kept making videos after their homework was done. It's not like she COULD NOT, it's likely that she DID NOT WANT TO which is totally understandable considering how bad it got, so no judgment from me. Totally sucks because of her pure potential that we won't get to see fulfilled. Well, I do judge the trolls but that is a completely different matter...

I agree.. Carlie you need to do both of these. I recognize Vai as being probably the greatest guitarist alive today but tell you what Tina is right there with him. Toward the end of his "For the life of God" Tina goes off a bit on her own & tell you what blows Steve away with it. He later stated its the best cover of his work that he's ever seen. Herman Li says the same thing. I mean neither of these great players have a thing on Tina. and yeah what I really like? She's very obviously a girl. Even though she has changed after coming back to us she's still very obviously female all the way. Sure she just turned 25 you don't stay a "kid" forever.

That's some absolutely insane muscle memory and it's jaw-dropping to watch. I personally think my favorite cover of hers is Steve Vai's "For The Love of God", but she's absolutely incredible here too.

It's *thaaaaat* feeling that's 10x more potent than the strongest drug that has artists, true artists, do what they do, and it's why everyone else loves art so much, because we get to be able to taste just the tiniest amount of that through their work

Any attempt to do so would be a violation of her personal privacy, which is AT THE VERY LEAST UNETHINCAL, and could actually be ILLEGAL. Just because she has not published anything with her name on it, does not mean she could not have ever written anything. It is ENTIRELY POSSIBLE that she COULD have already or that she may in the future. If she did write but didn't publish, it could be stuck in some private journal in a storage unit for all that anybody knows. There are many kinds of genius. She is obviously GREAT with guitar playing and so she is musical to at least some extent. Music affects the mind in ways that normal speech does not.

I've seen every one of Tina's videos. And I still keep coming back, why? Because I think she's the best female guitarist I've have ever seen. I love the comment that girls who like modern music, where the artist is average but uses celebrity to their advantage should of course be listened to, but not as an inspiration. Tina S is what girls & boys should aspire to be if they want to stand above the current musicians. Even if they cannot reach Tina's level, they would certainly learn more from learning bits of Tina's playing. Then they could use these bits to go in their own direction. I'm 55, I've played for 43 years, I will never have the natural gift that Tina has. I know talent when I see it, but this talent extraordinary.

[@davidstevenson3295]

This is the best guitar playing ever! From anyone ever! GET THE WORD EVER!!!

[@MarksTips]

I've watched countless Tina S reaction videos and the average response has been dumbfounded speechlessness. Most of the time I've had to wait a full thirty seconds after the lightning speed guitar playing ceased before the reactor came to their senses enough to say something "brilliant" like, "Jeez, that was good wasn't it?" Actually, their silence spoke more eloquently about what they experienced than words ever could. This is what I think happens to us while watching Tina S covers. Our brains begin to roast when 450 degrees of Tina S quadruple-speed guitar virtuosity is applied to them. We have to hit the stop button every thirty seconds to allow a cooling process to take place lest our brains sizzle out of control and melt. Tina S is performing guitar shredding impossibilities right before our very eyes. Hence, our confusion. Tina S, in our minds, is just too dang young to be playing that good! The average person can't swallow the theory that practice alone got her to that level of amazingness. A gift from God? Probably. At least that's my view. There have been two good Tina S reaction responses that caught my eye. 1. I think the "S" in Tina S stands for SPED UP! 2. "Watching Tina S play should be the easy part and her playing should be the hard part. But my experience was that watching her was the hard part because her playing appeared to be the easy part." Weird. But true. Afterthoughts. Tina has been negatively accused of being emotionless while playing. Granted, she doesn't gush with emotion like your average rock guitarist but here are three reasons why she acts that way. REASON 1. Tina S is NOT a rock guitarist. She's a classically trained guitarist. Notice how she has her guitar propped up on her left leg. Classical guitar style all the way. Classical guitarists are prim and proper and subdued on stage. Tina is probably mimicking the great classical guitarist Segovia's expression while playing not Angus Young's. By the way, Tina IS expressing emotion, it's literally pouring out of her instrument. REASON 2. Tina is not performing on a rock stage with 30,000 lunatic fans expecting guitar virtuosity and gobs of emotion. She is performing in a simple studio with one cameraman as her audience. She doesn't need to perform rock star stunts like playing the guitar with her teeth, or setting it on fire, or biting off the heads of bats. She's just playing the damn thing! Better than anyone that I've ever seen. REASON 3. The third reason why Tina isn't showing emotion is because what she's doing is easy. Yes, easy. How much emotion do you show while tying your shoe laces? Zero. Right? Why? Because tying your shoes is easy. You don't grimace and squint and bite your lower lip while tying your shoes because you don't need to and it would be weird if you did. Tina doesn't grimace and squint and bite her lower lip while shredding the guitar because she doesn't need to. The end.

[@jamesmorris5937]

I couldn’t agree with you more and I will tell you why she doesn’t show almost no facial expressions cause she’s the one guitar player that you will see that her facial expressions and emotions go from her brain into her body through her fingers and onto the guitar that makes the noise Because I don’t know about you. I personally can feel her emotion through the guitar dislike when a singer sings, if they’re really good, you can hear their performance and the emotion through their voice same thing with Tina. You can hear her emotions through her guitar plain you don’t have to make facial expressions to be great , and she has absolutely mastered that for us.

I fully agree with you: showing off your body means your guitar skills are not enough to attract the attention you are looking for. Tina S is way beyond that level, no need to show off her body or make the guitar loop around her head or anything, her talent and skills speak louder than anything else. The beauty is in the music and I can't get enough of it. Definitely an example for aspiring artists, who are not race horses so difficult to say what is the best (is it even relevant?), but after watching all the versions of that sonata I could find, no other guitar player comes close to Tina's level of beauty.

To others: If you ever really get into Tina, many different things will start to occur in your mind, your heart and in your ability to truly know a joy of expression that very few musicians will ever know and certainly many fewer will ever be able to duplicate with her skill level. Thank you for letting me know you are still around. Respect.

No offence but Dr Viossy who wrote the arrangement and played the original many years before her. No offence but Tina is a sheer instrumentalist and not much more.

[@johnmcdonald5055]

@@yogajedi3337 She is an incredible instrumentalist in many ways. So are others who are solely instrumentalists & widely admired. We know about Viossy, & Tina & Renaud were up front about it.

[@yogajedi3337]

@@johnmcdonald5055 Listen to the original and if you understand anything about music find out Tina lacks dynamic and music understanding. Robotic cover playing doesn't impress me. She's cute though.

[@RWS1255]

So impressed! I've been playing, self taught, pre-teen. I'm inspired. I'm taking music theory.

[@mikerukavina4551]

She's been playing since her acoustic guitar was physically bigger than her. She started playing classical acoustic. She is a legend. Hope she comes back with some mind blowers soon. She hasn't uploaded a new song in several years.

As a French, I would love to be as good as Tina one day cause she's just amazing, she left youtube to continue her studies, we didn't hear anything about her since she left I hope one day she'll come back with another cover as amazing as this one was !!

[@0ParisFrance]

Quelles études, où ça, dans quelle section, pour combien d'années ???

[@0ParisFrance]

Which studies, where, in which section, for how many years???

[@dalebuck7168]

Started playing when she was 4 or 5. This was her last posting on KZbin. She just quit and went to University. She is French. You ask if Beethoven would like it....this is the 3rd movement, and this is how it is played on the piano, with this intensity. She was/is amazing. I think she was 16 when she did this and she would be in her early 20's now.

[@0ParisFrance]

Everything is wrong ! She started at 6 years old, she played the Sonata at 17 and if she were alive she would be 22 years old. She never went to university !

[@dalebuck7168]

@@0ParisFrance Whatever! Apparently English is your second language...you say she would be 22 now (if she were alive? do you know that she is not?) When I say early twenties, that includes 22. You say she started when she was 6 years old, no, that was when she began to study Classical Guitar with a teacher. She played prior to that. You say she never went to University, yet almost everyone other resource says she did. There are even pictures of her at University, but hey, maybe she was visiting someone, so I'll give you that one since there is no proof. So "Everything is NOT wrong". If you research at least do it honestly...

@@johnhawkins_twa LOL, it's a bit hard for dead people to get a law degree, like Tina did last year.

[@MikeWilsonBarrett]

@@0ParisFrance What on earth are you spewing? Tina is not Dead. She has been at Uni since early 2017 studing law. I believe she got her law degree last year. She has put all her time and effort into her studies and had no time for YT. She rearranged her YT last year and updated her about section stating she now has agency but nothing since. But she isn't dead.

[@richardd3527]

Hey You ! She's back on track with a band ! Just got the news ! 🤗🤗🤗

[@F1rstWorldNomaD]

Shes hitting about 8 notes a second... *on average* including the very "slow" parts. Shes probably up to 16 or maybe even 20 notes a second in the faster registers. Its god damn superhuman.

[@ardeof]

Tina covered Dragonforce's Through the Fire and Flames and Herman Li's jaw basically dropped to the floor haha. Supposedly Tina went back to school to learn more and further her career. Hopefully we see more of her in the future though.

I've probably watched this clip more than 100 times and I've watched tons of reactions. EVERYBODY is blown away by Tina S. She's extra extraordinary. Sadly ... I've recently heard that she passed away in a car accident. I hope that's not true but nobody has heard or seen her in years.

[@Ezekiel33USA]

Tina S is such an inspiring guitar player. She inspired me to pick up my guitar and throw it in the trash.

[@0ParisFrance]

NO. Tina interview : "For me, the guitar is a game." "Anyone can do it, as long as you put your heart into it."

[@kentovewagenes1141]

This was Tina age 17, check out Tina age 15, Shred the hell out of the guitar in the cover of Trough fire and flames, Dragonforce cover. Hope she one day comes back and show off her amazing talent 👍

7 notes per second, and did NOT miss one note in the whole performance. Muscle memory, hardly needs to look at the fretboard.

[@faceplant4u]

Glad you found Tina finally Wondering when are you fall down the Leo Moracchioli rabbit hole. His talent for music is unreal. I would suggest his Adel - Hello Metal cover. You won't regret it.

She is amazing 👍👍👍

[@davidbenson2580]

You are not wrong I am 80 and played the guitar since I was 14, so I take interest in other guitarist, and you are correct half the females look like they just came from working at a strip joint. Not Tina, no need to, she lets her guitar do the talking. Please do more of her, the comments give you suggestions or just go to her KZbin page and just take your pick, you will not be disappointed.

[@chrisrisher6045]

Check out her Steve Vai - For the Love of God cover…sick! Definitely right about her being an artist that young girls should look up to. Dedication and talent. Thanks!

[@bigbelconut]

She started playing when she was 3, its amazing how fast she learns these songs. There are professional guitar players that have played for years that dot play a good as she does. Hopefully she starts doing video again when she finishes school.

speaking as a former professional juggler, I don't think it is a matter of her being nonchalant, she is in her zone doing something that is faster than a person's ability to consciously think about

She can't have just vanished off the face of the earth, someone knows where she is and what she is doing now, Why she isn't in a metal band I don't know, crazy, She can't have given the guitar up surely, She is INCREDIBLE. I'm a huge Metal fan and classic music on electric guitar is killer remember the Great Kat. You should react to The Great Kat " Beethoven Mosh Beethoven 5th symphony in C minor. Bang that head.
