probably one of the best home YouTube covers I've seen for a while:

you need to look at more you tube vids then.
yeah she plays good,
but that tone, and the horrible backing track.
shoot me now.

I just saw this recently when I got a 'friend invite' from her. Her execution of the song is good, but I have to agree with BTD's comment about the tone. Well, maybe I'm just ambivalent about it... surf played on a 'non-surf' guitar, with distortion, just rankles. On the other hand, at least it's not another guy playing the usual song with the usual rig in the usual way. Not my favorite version, but I think (a bit reluctantly) that it works better than I would have expected. If you check her other songs, you'll see that she's by no means a surf specialist.

Fair comments about the backing track - that's why I said "home YouTube" and not "live surf video".

As far as equipment, that is true also - granted. I don't think she was attempting 'surf purity' though. I think she was just playing her guitar in a house.

Well, I personally still like the way this young lady plays (including her other videos). There's more going on than just good technique.

If anyone did follow Camila's work from this post, I thought it was right to direct you to the news about her.

As far as the comments above, I still totally respect your views. My reason for bumping this post is general for those who had not heard yet.

if that story about her and her mom being killed,
that is horrible.
