It doesn’t matter how many times I watch her and rewatch her. She is mesmerizing.

Tina I don't know if you ever read these comments but just in case here goes. I have heard all the different stories and rumors about where you disappeared to. Doesn't matter. Here's what does. You have clearly established yourself as one of the absolute best guitarists on the planet. That is regardless of gender or age. You're one of the best...period. 2020 has been a god awful year. We've lost Neal Peart, Eddie Van Halen, and Sean Connery. There's been a horrible pandemic. Here in America there's been unrest, a racial divide and a serious lack of humanity. In times like this music is at the least a great distraction and at it's best can be a healing balm. Music can soothe the soul and heal the heart. As one of music's most gifted ambassadors I ask you to please consider returning to share your gift with us once again. We'd also love to hear you speak. No one can tell your story as well as you can. You lived it after all. You have fans that appreciate and admire your talent and will support you. Thank you for sharing your gift with us and heres hoping we see you again soon.

I sure hope she comes back some day. She’s amazing.

This incredible masterpiece was composed by a school kid of Tina's age in this video all the way back in 1980s. When Jason got a chance to record it a year later in the studio after he was done composing, he played guitars (there are 2 guitars in places for harmony here and 'Air' has 3 guitars in places for counterpoint), bass, and keyboards all by himself and Atma Anur played the drums. He didn't just record this piece this way, he recorded entire 'Perpetual Burn' (1988) album that to this day remains a shred bible. Jason got diagnosed with a fast-progressing debilitating disease (ALS - think Stephen Hawking) only a couple years later at the age of 20 and was given only 3-5 years to live and hasn't played guitar at all since age 21. Today Jason remains the longest ALS survivor with over 30 years with this disease, a record held previously by Stephen Hawking who passed several years ago. Jason still composes amazing music but being unable to move anything but his eyes it's difficult to get the music out of his head. Never the less he still released highly acclaimed 'Triumphant Hearts' album in 2018. You should check it out as well as 'Perspective' album (1996) and of course 'Perpetual Burn' album. Jason is more than just a shredder, he's an incredible music composer that spans almost every genre of music from classical orchestration to pop to rock/metal, even some jazzy and choral works. My personal favorite arrangemement and orchestration of his is 'Life and Death' from his 'Perspective' album, everyone should go hear it just to get an idea what kind of musical mind he is. He composed this whole thing note by note while paralyzed and orchestrated it on MIDI. One day just like his 'Air' masterpiece, 'Life and Death' and others will be also covered by orchestra.

The force is strong within this young lady

Please Tina come back, youre the BEST

from everything I know and have witnessed in my life, I have to say that this woman is the best guitarist on earth'

My all time favorite guitarist. The most talented, artistic, technically superb, moving ever to walk the earth. Please come back Tina. The world is blessed to have you.

Just the fact that a 16 year old kid today knows who Jason Becker is would have been good enough for me...

Most amazing female guitarist I ever saw, and she is only 16-HOLY SHIT!

It isn't just her technical ability to play this piece but the maturity, conviction, and emotional gift she displays in the interpretation of such masterpiece.

Tina’s Power and Passion runs fluidly through her entire body and resonates out of her guitar. Perfection!🌹

Music is my life , guitar is my wife -Jason Becker

Jason becker is the only artists i have seen her cover where it's clear she is trying...the rest are so effortless for her. That says lots about both becker and this girls insane level of talent/hard work

This is an incredible performance. But, what's even more incredible is that Jason actually composed this piece. Phenomenal composing. His sense of melody almost brings a tear to the eye. Truly remarkable.

This young girl, Tina S. unbelievable, listening to what she is doing on the guitar and watching her do it has got to be the most spectacular thing I have ever seen anybody do with a damn guitar and I've been playing and studing guitar for 50 years, how can a girl this young possibly be this advanced in the short time that she has even been alive, it does not even seem possible

I swear ... Every time I come back to watch and listen to her I am blown away all over again.

Seriously, who thumbs this down? I'm seriously fascinated by the depths of envy and/or inadequacy that would prompt someone to dislike a nearly flawless rendition of an extremely difficult track. 6 thumbs up!

Jason Becker was a freak of guitar knowledge. Those who can grasp it are part of the downloading of the universe. How can anyone be so gifted as to understand music at such a young age? It has to be downloaded into you at the moment of birth which blows away all ideas of talent because it must be some other force that we cannot comprehend. I have played guitar for over 40 yrs and have tried to play Jason`s stuff but it comes so hard for me yet some youngster can just lay it out with ease? I can play some of it, but it is tough. These children are born and can just wail on it so easily? The universe has to be a computer program for this to happen.

🎸 Words are insufficient to describe the skill level required to replicate this as well as she did. It’s always a pleasure to hear and watch her play. Hoping all is well with Tina S wherever she may be.

I can't stop watching this video. She's like a young Jedi on the guitar! I can picture her playing with a symphony, being the featured artist.

Those haters are just pure Jealous is all! She's amazing!

This was beautiful and talented. I am a fan of Jason Becker. This tune is very familiar to me. I have been dreaming a lot in listening to this song and the whole album. Tina performed it amazingly. I got back to the old days when i listened heavy metal and talented guitar players.

This is literally the Mozart of our time, this song is the most spectacular song in my existence and certainly is the most meaningful piece of art I’ve ever known, Jason Becker was a prodigy and you have performed this with such passion and experience. I really don’t have words to describe my feeling towards you and Jason. This video is 5 years old now it is and always will be my favorite/underrated performance, you are a very awesome person for doing this!

This young lady is one of my all time favorites. Absolutely incredible talent.

To the 471 thumbs down. Jason Becker gave his thumbs up told her she did a nice job. You guys only think that you are great. I bet she could smoke every one of you.. My opinion, if you don't like her playing just go somewhere else. She is amazing, so very talented and now considered to be one of the best in the world. Lets see your credentials. Awesome Tina and you just get better and better. I bow to you. You are amazing.

Every time I watch a Tina S vid I lose track of reality for a moment... is this real? Is there actually talent like this on the planet somewhere? You could possibly be one of the most talented and captivating artists... you cause people to feel connected to music in ways words cannot express... hope you come back!!!

every time I see you, listen to you, I am blown away... no words are right enough to express what I feel. you have this real talent that distinguishes the very good from the legends. no matter what happened, what was said and right from wrong I don't care. I know that you are one of those rare UFOs of music, of the guitar. how I would like to see you again and listen to you again. nothing would please him more than to hear from you. I hope all is well with you. I never tire of listening to you. Thanks for these wonderful videos. sincerely i miss you so much ✌️

That smile at the beginning... and the insane playing...EPICNESS!!

Can we all take a second to acknowledge the genius who wrote this song 🤯

Jason Becker will, in probabiltiy, NEVER find a better rendition of this glorious piece of music he has created. What Tina has done here, as in all the other covers I have heard her play, she has set herself miles apart form the rest, to the point that she has, in my opinion, officially alienated.herself. The depth of her knowledge and skills to produce what she did in all known Tina S covers, is (something like...) beyond comprehension, unimaginable, unexplainable, unfathomable. Tina has sort of urged to me to discover of the world's really great guitarists, and belive me, there are many, mene and women, but I am convinced that Tina S has become the ultimate of my discoveries. Tina Setkic - in a class of her own - CLASSIFIED. There you have it. I have said it and I certainly neither retract or regret any of the above.

The honest part that makes her covers stand out is how she doesn’t shy away from picking legato . Simply stated, at that speed picking legato is practically rendered as a feat surmounted by few. And to have them be discernable is mind boggling. I raise my figurative glass to you, and heck, I might give this one a go

Tina just keeps getting better and better. Her immense guitar talent is constantly evolving. I think in this performance she injects a lot of emotion into her playing. Her facial expressions and body demeanor also reflect this display of emotional, heartfelt guitar playing in honor of the great Jason Becker.

Умница !!!! Несколько лет слушаю именно этот кавер ... Крышесносно .

I am a big fan of all your guitar's covers, but this one is my favorite, so intense! Thanks so much Tina for having shared all these videos, and to have kept them available online. Very precious... Merci beauoup Tina!

To see dislikes on an amazing performance like this one is unbelievable, disgraceful and sad. The most emotional and close to the original version of this song that I personally have ever heard. Even Jason himself congratulated her. It tells it all! This version of Altitudes always brings tears to my eyes because of the heavenly underlying melody and Tina's ability in executing these crazy solos effortlessly, but also thinking about how inexplicably cruel life has been with that genius called Jason, who was still a teen like Tina when composing this masterpiece. I was a teen myself back then in 1989, playing drums in metal bands, and totally blown away one day by discovering Cacophony's "Go off" and listening to "Images" a hundreds times. Hope to hear you back Tina S, one day soon 🙏🙏🙏 And so much love&light to Jason for whatever he did and still does, being an inspiration to so many!

I literally pulled my brain out of my head and said, "are you seeing this?"

I was in Glasgow today and walked past a little scallywag about 19 yrs old strumming a guitar badly. He had an adoring audience of about 15 girls listening to every pained chord he played. This girl has most of the youtube guitar community listening to her every note and she's only 16. Incredible talent

Oh my GoD….she’§ ..” Outstanding !

Слов нет, как она хороша. Великолепный уровень и прекрасное исполнение. Каждая нота на своём месте и сыграна по-своему, но всегда прекрасно.

She is a prodigy and this shouldn't be ignored. My wife is a piano teacher and you wouldn't believe how musically under educated kids are these days. Their music "appreciation" is directed towards the most disgusting music I've ever heard in my 35 years. We need more of this girl and students who aspire to be at least half this good.

We need girls like Tina in music today!!! No Ariana Grande, no Rihanna et caetera...

Never get tired of watching her. Phenomenal!

Absolutely the best I have ever heard....Thank you for sharing your talent with the world.

I can clearly sense that Tina seized the spirit of this masterpiece. So much thanks

I am crying right now... Tears running down my face... You ripped and tore my soul apart piece by piece. Thank you Jason Becker for this masterpiece and thank you Tina S for your amazing talent and your heart.

One of the better instrumental songs in metal. Such feeling. Man. I can't imagine how hard it must be for him, to not be able to play guitar anymore.

Jason Becker himself liked this video, who am I to dislike? Nicely done

I first heard Tina about 5 years ago...was inspired to become a good guitarist...intead of the intermediate player I had been to that point. To this day, I find myself reinspired every single time I hear her play. Thanks Tina, I hope to hear from you again someday ! 👍

I love that she finds time to push her hair back behind her ear. Mesmerising. Fusion of the conscious and unconscious. it’s like she’s listening more than playing, or it’s pure mind

Seriously how does a 16 year old play these very technical guitar tracks and she's not even looking? Wherever she is she needs to take this talent to a form a group. This is beyond talent, just a natural to nail tracks from some of the very best guitarist ever and make it look easy.

God bless Tina S. and all of the talent she works with. They brought this old cancer recovery rocker back to life. GOD I LOVE THEM ! ! Thank You. Go forward TINA !

The fact that Jason recorded most of this album in one take flawlessly just blows my mind

Amazing musicality and precision. What a fantastic super guitarist.

I just wan to cry idk why just wanna cry man that's real art 🎸🤟

I can't find adjectives powerful enough to describe her TALENT 💥💥💥 It's simply OUT OF THIS WORLD 😍😍😍🤟🤟🤟👏👏 The guitar seems to be an extension of her arms!

This girl got her first electric guitar at age 13, and here she is at 15 blowing 95% of guitarists out of the water. Her progression as a guitarist from age 13 to 17 is incredible. I can't wait for her return to KZfaq. I am sure she will dazzle all of her fans with the performances to come. Tina, all your fans love your dedication to your art!!! Hope you are doing well at whatever you are involved in.

Para mim à melhor guitarrista dos últimos tempos. Tina S à melhor guitarrista concerteza.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️❤️

One of my two favorites,Tina is sometimes reviewed as having no emotions while she’s playing, but I see just the opposite. Tina isn’t playing for entertainment, she’s playing for herself and that speaks volumes.

Une grande découverte, Tina tu est un phénomène. Merci.

For this cover, she gives so much of herself that her guitar cries, I get goose bumps.

Here me is again Tina S. Lmfao. Never fails to make me smile. I'll say it once more. Her ability to take me to where she is in the music is nothing short of amazing to me. Music is magical. Someone who has the ability to do what she does is a true gift. If I could sing it would be, Still missing YOU, Tina S. Lol

I'm in awe that a young woman like you can play Jason's music . I'm beyond impressed with your mastery of the guitar

Out of 883277 notes you got 7 wrong. I have good news though you are still a genius. I believe you are the most gifted and talented young lady I've ever seen and heard, and you are most certainly in the top tear of guitarists in the world. There is a very high probability that in the next 2 or 3 years you could be crowned guitar queen of the earth by the great council of the guitar gods. Just remember some of the simpler compositions when played with love, passion, heart and soul are enjoyed and appreciated as much as the more complicated ones. Many blessings to you always. (Sorry I can't speak French)

Definitely Jason Becker would be proud and she should be proud of herself too

I tried to be a pro guitar player for years and I listen to the best. Up until now I thought EVH was the most gifted. She is beyond human. I believe she is the most gifted guitar player of all time.

You are truly one of a kind Tina No matter what anyone else says...you are truly one of the best, If not the best that I have ever heard. God-bless you sweetheart

Lovely playing. I've never been able to approach this speed and dexterity. Love videos like this because they put my ego into place. Amazing stuff, and not "just for her age" Amazing, period!

How it's possible to dislike this .....?

I have been playing for 40 years and couldn't even get close to playing this. You got talent. Great job on all your vids!!! With all that talent please start writing your own compositions. You will do great.

commenting again from 2015: i love this!!! and i love how so many comments still to this day are less than a week old! it's like reading reviews on mozart!

Each day I hope to see, hear, and feel Tina unveil her own complete compilation. This young guitarist is truly heading to epic fame. Genius mind. Depth of heart. And stunning beauty. Tina you have it all. Change the world. You changed mine. The Universe is all you.

Я из России, иду покупать шляпу чтобы снять ее перед ней!Сама мимика лица выражает одно целое музыканта, гитары и музыки. Сама гитара просто бомба! Всех благ вам, счастья, здоровья и всего самого наилучшего друзья!

Imagine writing this as a teenager. Jason's legacy will never die. His music is more relevant now than ever before.

I’ve watched this so many times and left always in awe such great playing Tina you are awsome ..... makes me realise that Jason Becker had the playful emotional touch like Mozart and would both combine simple yet sophisticated effortless playing. There is so much to recognise it’s actually beyond me

I don't always watch videos about female guitar shredders, but when I do, I watch Tina S. Stay thirsty my friends!🎸🎸🎶🎵🎼

Any young lady that knows Jason Becker and can play his compositions is amazing, he was the greatest guitarist ever until ALS left him paralyzed. He still somehow composes music, he is still a genius. Pray for Jason Becker and his family...

And on the 7th day God created Tina s. What an unique talent

May 28, 2023 - 7M views - well done Tina Bravo!

She is my favorite and she rocks the soul! Awsome talent!!!

So I know I'm 4 years late to this comment but I've played guitar for nearly 20 years (self taught and not a seasoned guitarist and don't play as much as I used to) but she has blown my abilities away! This is my favorite instrumental song instrumentally and though the song is difficult technically by all means it's the emotion put in that makes this song and she hits it spot on!

Это шедевр красота исполнения +любовь к музыке!

This iş the best guitarist i ever seen

I spent hours listening to Guitar Masters tapes when I was 14. There was this tune which I know most of the notes. She's missing none of them ! Enormissime !

The timing... In one take.... I'm out of words... Plus comment from Becker himself... This is beyond exceptional! Congratulations Tina!

Just the fact that I heard one song made me and my husband (who also plays guitar) in a state of shock so bad we couldn't say shit til after and watched about 3 more of her videos nothing changed about 5 minutes later we both said at the same time "that was fucking incredible hands down should have a label over 95% of the shit out now pure raw untainted talent keep it going girl

Просто гениальный музыкант , таких единицы .

Слушаю постоянно все, что могу увидеть об этой красавице-виртуозе , просто супер!

Cut her some slack on the imperfections of this cover. Shes only 16 and shes extremely good for her age. I know how hard Jason's music is to play on guitar so the fact she even attempted it is amazing. Great playing Tina!

You have a phenomenal gift, thank you for sharing it.

Thank you so much for Sharimg your talent with the World! You are Truely Amazing to say the Least! So Enjoyable to watch and listen to! Keep it up!

this Angel is 20 now , lets hope she still with the string skill that slays all

Jason Becker??? Really?? And u did Justice to a legendary guitarist. M truly grateful to you Tina.. Ua undoubtedly "THE BEST"

Solamente con mucha practica se logra semejante interpretación!!!!brillante....no me canso de escucharla....Felicitaciones desde Argentina!!!!!!

💪💪💪💪🔥🔥🔥🔥 She kicks ass !! That's in her soul, deep ⭐⭐⭐

Tina S is so excellent, I love to hear her play all these different styles, she is awesome!

Wow. Absolutely amazing. And great sweep picking!

Thank you for sharing your talent with us mortals. Probably the 100th + time I've watched one of your vids. It helps take my mind off of other problems in life and just enjoy the moment. Seriously, thank you for this.

Every day every night before i sleep for the last 6years till now i watch her videos, and hope that she upload new video. I'm still here to wait that day.

I don't care what anyone says, she's one of the best guitarists that's ever played.. awesome job
