Tim Soo is a YouTube star who has recently done a rendition of Bruno Mars' Just the Way You Are using "invisible instruments."
Soo cleverly utilizes his Wii Remotes as well as his iPod Touch to generate music virtually. This idea came to Soo when he forgot his violin while away at university and needed it for class. Thus, Soo's invisible instruments concept was born and is currently rocketing him into YouTube stardom.
This rendition of 'Just the Way You Are' is unique and extremely cute. The video showcases Soo playing his invisible instruments in traditional poses. This concept brings the idea of the air band to another dimension. It will be interesting to see what Soo comes up with next.
