Fillum Clips

1.) Check out this virtuoso three-year-old xylophonist: her beautiful expression makes this an excellent performance.

(via Harry's Place.)


2.) This probably shouldn't have cracked me up quite as much as it did, but what can I say? I'm a profoundly shallow man...

In regards to the xylophone girl clip:

It seems strange to me that you would promote the likes of Kim Jong Il. Especially at the expense of small children. I don't know who you think you are, but I think you are a big meany.

Frank,

I hear that there's an even younger kid in Ohio (near Kent State) who shows similar skills (primarily in percussion)? Can you confirm?

She's adorable! If we could get everybody to agree to use the Internet for nice, wholesome entertainment...what a wonderful world it would be.

Her facial expressions are priceless.

Does anybody remember Phil Alvin?

Cute? You guys are insane...that thing is a monster. A human Pokemon. Xylophonachoo.

Although it wasn't as intense as the one provided by the original Pokemon, I did endure one small seizure halfway through her set.

Hahahah good one Adam, it's been a long time since I've read a post and actually laughed out loud.

Near kent state? I think that kid was shot by the national guard... What a waste.

It's good to hear the Kim Jong Il loves the children. Word on the street is he also brought the grapes of love. Hmmm, okay.
