• Or, maybe, JUST MAYBE, you could take the "dump my girlfriend" comment as the joke it was intended (like MatzeNeinderandere did in the comment above yours, apparently).  All that "looking up" I did on where she goes to school is right on her youtube channel.  It's not like I tried to find out everything about her, it was just there plain as day as I checked out about two minutes of video.  Obviously you've been looking waaaay more into this girls details than I cared to since you know about her film friend/camera guy.  I think YOU'RE the one with the creepy fanboy vibe, asshole.  I was simply trying to leave a funny comment on a website where people say goofy stuff all the time. Jeez, dude, lighten the fuck up. Plus, wasn't this video posted, like, two months ago?  And now you're trolling thru the comments, and taking the time to bash on someone's joke?  Find something more useful to do with your life, bud.

• ...You're one of those types of 'geeks' that, as soon as they see something that involves a vagina, they start making all these parallels that aren't really there, aren't you? She's an awesome girl, but she's not too nerdy (she just really likes the music), 'goofy' is kind of her style, so it's not so much that she's not afraid of being goofy, she's just kind of herself. Not too into cosplay, either. She just dances, so she's used to wearing outfits that are themed to what she's doing. The person who does the camera work for her is a friend, and he's the film guy. And the fact that you went as far as to look up where she goes to school is a little odd, to say the least. AND you're talking about 'dumping' your 'girlfriend' over a girl that will probably never see you? TL;DR: You're giving off a stalkerish fanboy vibe. And it's creepy.

• This was corny as fuck.  

• Umm, Zelda is a girl.

• Nintendo's marketing team wishes it could make videos this awesome.

•  Ahem, I believe you've forgotten which website you're on.  Look at the address bar and you'll find that this is not 4chan.

• I'm not into the violin, so fuck it.

• HAHA! Thats what she said.

• You did have a pretty mouth. >:3

• I named my son Link. 

• Well, damn. Nothing wrong with that. Cute goofball having a blast? Subscribe!

• She's so... limber though.

• Man, what if Zelda was a girl? 

• Have you ever seen an Irish fiddler at like, a wedding a something? Even a particularly inebriated fiddler? The things she's doing are not that astoundingly athletic, especially given that she has the ability to edit both footage where she maybe takes a break or stumbles and edit the actual violin playing itself. Also, you don't have to be happy to smile. Especially in light of the fancy seeming camera equipment, that's just called acting.

• naaah, she will understand ;)

• Oh, CROM! YES!

• Yeah, she is cute and she knows it, but who cares. i can't resist, i'm going to watch it again although i know that this amount of sweetness will cause explosive caries.

• It may just be me, but when I hear that someone is frolicking, there shouldn't be so much standing in one place.  That said, I can see why the video comes off as annoying, because there is a slightly pretentious air about it, but it's always good to see violinists shake a tail feather, because it does look so dorky, whether done by a Link who shows she can bend over backwards or on stage by one of the numerous people in Arcade Fire.

• I was having the same reaction through the first half of the video, but then realized that this is the perfect type of nerd video. She's letting her goofy, awkward personality hang out in front of the whole internet because she's damn good at what she does and doesn't give a shit if you point and laugh.

• Must not make comments regarding: Pulling the Master Sword grabbing Deku Nuts venturing into the Kokiri forest Playing the warp whistle... (It made it's debut on Legend of Zelda, not SMB3) Drinking Lon Lon milk Zora Tunics and getting wet. because they would make me look like a sexist pig and possibly a pervert... Seriously though, I never understood the whole Dance routine + Violin playing... I guess the whole making this less visually boring kinda takes away from her violin playing.

• Mesmerizing...

• I went to the woods as a child... and left as a man.

• WHAT THIS CITY NEEDS...IS MORE COSPLAYING VIOLINISTS READY TO BELIEVE IN THE  TRIFORCE.

• She may be playing, but considering it's a montage they probably erased the orginal audio and dubbed it over.

• I totally read that word as vuvuzela when I first read that. *plays LoZ theme on a vuvuzela*

• ...George Takei, we need you again! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u2ALsvU50wQ

• well to film it at least...

• I like cute girls, and I'm not demanding the time I spent watching this video back.

• Yeah, once you learn the violin, and THEN learn how to compose music for the violin, try and do half the stuff she does while playing. THAT'S her charm. I've never seen anyone that can dance as athletically as she can while doing something like that. Take a pill, relax and quit being the Debbie Downer who thinks that whenever a girl shows some kind of interest in geek culture, she must be part of a "secret plot". You people are starting to get on my nerves almost as much as the Birthers and the Moon Landing whackos. The girl has talent, that "goofy face" is actually a SMILE, maybe you just haven't ever had someone enjoy your company enough to display one?

• Female Link, you say? ...no, I'm not blushing. QUIT STARTING AT ME!

• flute link is another like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O6WdIC1uz0s

• And in all four seasons Let that sink in for a second. This video took a YEAR to make!

• I did get the impression that one kind of fungal growth might have played a part in this video's creation. 

• Nice video. Cute girl. On drugs, but still cute.

• I pick up a definite Mr. B Natural vibe from this video.  Yup, that makes it creepy.

• Shouldn't it be "The Violin of Space"? XD Mmh. While I don't go gaga over girls, I'll just praise her talents instead. She really got it going on with that violin.  Hey, New York Philharmonics, if I don't see this girl in First Chair on account that she's a nerd, I shall like to eat your liver with a side of Fava beans and a nice Chianti. FFFfffFFFfffFFFfffFFFfffFFFfffFFFfffFFFfff!!

• The ridiculous leg lunges and goofy faces kill it for me. And that she's just walking around playing a violin. I guess this kind of shit plays better to guys who don't have wives or girlfriends, and make tents in their sweatpants whenever something with a vagina expresses a micron of interest in geek culture.

• I am in love.  She seems to like nerdy stuff, isn't afraid to just get out and be goofy, is in to cosplay, served a Mormon mission (I did that!), is obviously in to film-making and music, like me.....  Also, it looks like she goes to school about a half hour drive from where I live (according to her totally awesome youtube channel). DAMN YOU, TOPLESS ROBOT, FOR IGNITING THIS UNREQUITED LOVE WITHIN MY SOUL!!!!!! ...my girlfriend is gonna be pissed when I dump her for this girl.  :)

• I thought that was pretty amazing - the music alone was awesome and I'll be downloading and listening to that many times. I'd love to see her dress up as Aeris and do all the FF7 music. That would quite possibly make my brain explode.

• Ah well that explains the snow-capped mountains and lack of Pacific Northwest/British Columbia fungal growth.

• Her name is Lindsey Stirling, and she's absolutely amazing... As for the people wondering where she is getting all the high-skill camera work, all her vids are this way. She's going to BYU, so it's a safe bet that she either has a buddy enrolling in film classes here somewhere in Utah, or has a connnection with one of the local places. Quite a few films and TV shows shoot here, so it wouldn't surprise me. The best part about any of her videos is that fact that she actually smailes and looks like she truly enjoys what she is doing. Someone else mentioned seeing a similar girl in NY panhandling, while browsing her videos a few weeks ago, I did notice that she had some shot when she was on a family vacation in NY, maybe it WAS her... Just look up Lindsey Stirling and see some of her other stuff, but remember, I SAW HER FIRST!!!   ;-) EDIT: This is her Youtube channel(Possible location for the interior 'castle' scense from the Zelda video in the old concrete shell in her video here. http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=lindseystomp&feature=iv&src_vid=WWyI-58gpic&annotation_id=annotation_840250 Here's the Youtube Channel of her videographer: http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=devinsupertramp&feature=iv&src_vid=WWyI-58gpic&annotation_id=annotation_57510

• She should do a duet with Laura Shigihara. ...too much adorableness?

• Sorry Rob have to disagree, this was just amazing, The Gurudus part that started at 2:22 was just simply fantastic

• i think i love this girl/boy/link/excited violinerest and i always will. can i have more?

• While they can be pretty expensive, the use of HDSLRs and the accompanying gear has really brought prices down for high quality equipment (from what I've seen from experience on set, at least...I am sure there is still plenty of expensive stuff out there). So, could be that she just knows a fanboy kid with a 7D, a good eye, and a boat load of DSLR rigs.  I mean that in all compliments to the fanboy kid, too.  The photography is awesome. 

• Meh, she must be selling something. No one spends so much money and time to give a bunch of nerds a brain orgasm. 

• So bizarre. The video appears to have been shot with a stedicam and crane, which are expensive pro gear that need to be handled by skilled operators. Yet it's a goofy cosplay video of a girl playing the Zelda theme on a violin. Who would go to this much effort for such a thing?

• Ahem, FAPFAPFAPFAPFAPFAPFAPFAPFAPFAPFAPFAPFAP. And an extra FAPFAP. That is all.

• I think it all depends on what kind of mood your in. Normally cute cos-playing women frolicking in the woods makes me want to dip my balls in it. Today though, I just want to walk up and kick that bitch in the uvula. That would give her something to frolic about......

• goofy or not this is pure joy

• She's so cute! She can dance around with her violin all she wants.

• To hell with Zooey.......this is adorkable

• It would be really funny if, in every scene, there were two people wearing regular clothes standing by watching her go nuts. 

• or do you mean this isn't her playing at all we are hearing?

• I assume people never play the instruments when doing a music video. or at least it gets dubbed  over. I don't think this surprises most people.

• yeah thats still creeps me out

• You should look up flute link.  She's pretty awesome.

• Where did the saddle come from! Wtf?

• She rides that horse bareback. (have at it Dr.)

• That was pretty awesome. I doubt it's her, but she looks like the gal I encountered walking to the 7 train in Manhattan over the summer who was playing the Legend of Zelda theme on her violin. I would have gone over to say how great she was playing, but she was panhandling, I had no change and I didn't want to come off as a dick.  "Hey, that's a great job there. What? No, I won't give you any money, but keep up the good work." 

• I'm going to resist my lower urges and not post what occurred to me watching this video.[/shifty eyes]

• The video makes more sense to me after watching some of her other stuff.  I think this girl is awesome. 

• 51 seconds.  Look on the right side.

• http://youtu.be/Vp63nbOfxgs I knew I had seen her somewhere before

• Normally, I'd agree that some chick dancing around with a violin is kind of silly. But this video has just enough heartfelt earnestness and great production value to push it right into being awesome.

• psst.... she's not really PLAYING the violin.

• This is the girl Detroit need, when the city needs to raise money

• I don't see what there is to be pissed off about, but yeah, some monsters could add to it. but could  also make it just dumb and cheesy if not done well enough.

• I missed it. whenabouts was it?

• what about when guitarists dance around while playing? 

• I don't understand the confusion. I think this is awesome. goofy in spots, sure, but still awesome.

• Listening to this makes the #OWS live stream im watching seem soo much cooler =)

• THE SWIRLING NEON MADNESS!!!

• If she was battling monsters with her violin and looked serious for a few seconds I would of been less pissed off. But the scenery was nice

• nice

• i don't know what it is but there is something about violinist that piss me off. maybe it the fact that they seem to find the need to dance around well playing. 

• The suv in the background lends to its authenticity of the game.
