    I love DragonForce and it is such a blast to see Gee react to Junna and her incredible cover and immaculate percussion skills. Junna is such a cute girl with great skill having a blast and just fun to watch. Note that she sometimes closes her eyes and is mouthing the words to the song. Not even looking at the drums a couple of times yest not missing a beat. The hair sells her to. Good God Junna is awesome. Not sure which band Junna is in now. Would be cool to see her in a band opening for DragonForce. Gee and Junna could swap spaces for a couple of songs for each band.

      To be 100% fair here, Dave Mackintosh was Dragonforce's drummer when the song came out, and co-wrote it. This came out in 2006. Gee didn't join until 2014 when Dave left. That's not a mark against him of course...his audition was also a really good cover of this song so it's safe to say he knows it pretty well.
