Such a surprise, to hear the Drummer talk about what she was doing; and why !! AND, for her to make mention of Stuart's snare - Because it makes an incredible difference in the way sound is produced. Amazing Cymbal work...Very impressed !!

4:15 40 years later & that specific drum fill still rocks my world

Every Little Beat She Does Is Magic - amazing!

That transition into the second verse....smooth like butter

This is awesome. I'm an old drummer, and I studied some of the same drummers you have, particularly Bonham, Peart and Moon. And then I heard Outlandos in a pair of Koss cans around 40 years ago. I remember thinking 'This changes everything'. Steely Dan's Aja changed a lot as well, but there are at least 4 world-class, hall-of-fame drummers on that record. They were all geniuses. Stewart was only one, but he moved the ball almost as far. From the bottom of all drummers' hearts, thank you for keeping great, acoustic, organic drumming alive.

Great job and great choice, young lady! Stewart Copeland is one of the finest time keepers to ever sit behind a trap set. Keep the covers coming!

I find it incredible that this young lady is only thirteen. Her technique and her confidence are out of this world.

I don’t always watch drum covers but when I do, I watch Mia. Twirling the stick with that sassy smile was priceless. Awesome performance

One of my favourite songs ever and you smashed it! So much talent!

FANTASTIC! I really enjoy watching her play, especially since she basically made me watch just to see WHAT she is doing as a comparison, not that I'd know what a drummer SHOULD be doing anyway. Mia is just fun to watch.

It's great to see youth playing drums like sitting above the drums like the old masters

My favorite thing about Mia is how she's always smiling while she plays. It's obvious this young lady just loves making music! Mia, I hope that never changes for you, no matter how long you're in the music biz, which can be a toxic environment. Rock on, young lady! 🤘💜🤘

The charismatic spontaneity of her drumming is no where to be felt in her singing and guitar. An exceptionally beautiful voice, but in the manner of gloom. I am no expert, but I know what I like.

This young lady is truly destined for Stardom! Her musical ability coupled with her wonderful personality is a sure fire combination. Best of luck to you Mia!
