I'm terrible with lyrics. I can never understand them, lol. Fun one on drums though!

Thank you! Great song, and fun one on drums!

Thank you very much! That's honestly the best compliment a drummer can ever receive!

I tried, lol. It really had been a while since I'd played the song. Heard it a million times though, so at least I had that going for me, which is nice. Gunga galunga.

Thank you! The Cardigans had so many fun songs to play! I don't play their songs nearly as often as I used to play them, but I always enjoy playing them when I do.

I don’t play an instrument myself but drums are my favorite; and The Cardigans are definitely great for all those jumpy beats. You are such an amazing drummer!

Thanks! It's so hard for me not to race the song, even though I've heard it a thousand times. STP had so many cool songs on drums, IMO.

I highly doubt it, but thank you :)

Thank you, and thanks for listening/watching!

I saw dad bust a move at a wedding when this song played. Couldn’t get him to repeat it at mine…

Thanks! It's one of those songs that I play much better if I let myself go into an "out of body" sort of experience and I don't think too much.

Glad you liked it, and more than glad you're raising little Bryce correctly and that at 6 years old he's wearing a Stones shirt :)

Would you expect anything less?!?!

Thank you very much! I'm happy that google now offers a translate option.

@DM-tc3gz I'm sorry, I'm Brazilian and my English is terrible 😅

@@Elly-td3li No problem at all! Thank you for your kind words, and I'm happy that modern technology makes it easier to communicate with people that speak different languages!

Thanks a lot! This song has such a killer bass line, and that clavinet just puts it over the top for me.

Thanks! It's a short, fun song to play. It had probably been 10 years since I'd last played it. Not perfect, but I was happy with it.

Thank you! So many songs by The Cardigans are fun on drums!

Thanks! This is an older recording. I have since rigged up an old boom cymbal stand for my camera and now have an overhead view with slightly less crappy sound quality, lol. It's all ambient. I make no money from it. I'm not going to buy a bunch of microphones to get it sound better. I do it all for fun and for something to do.

It's amazing how songs can stick with you. I remember you driving me up to the MEPS and we listened to the Time/Life classics mix...then when I was waiting for the plane STP Plush was the last song I ever heard as a "free man", lol.

Thank you!

Thanks!

Thanks, and thanks for listening! One of main reasons I'm recording so many songs is because I'm increasingly getting hit with hand issues these days. Most times they come out of nowhere from what are the most innocuous movements. Not sure how much longer I'll be able to play well, so I'm trying to do what I can while I can. I've played pretty regularly since I was very young, so there are tens of millions of hits on my hands, wrists, elbows, etc. Add on to that power tools and cranking wrenches and ratchets while working on cars, and I guess it all takes its toll after a while. I keep a very loose grip on my sticks and use mostly fingers and wrist, but even that is starting to go a little.

Thanks! I think I might be benefiting from a little of the original recording on the tone - hitting at the exact time is blending my sound with the recording. Or, they might sound ok because there isn't a whole lot of other drum noise going on when I'm hitting the toms? Not entirely sure, but I'm glad I was able to get a decent sound for a change, lol.

@@DM-tc3gz I've listened to the song a thousand times. Hit my toms a million. I know the difference. They sound good

One of the best comments I've ever received to any of my vids, so, thank you!!! Usually, the comments are more like, "You should get some mics and a mixer." I do it all for fun and to allow friends and family to see/hear some of my playing. My drums are Tama Starclassic Birch/Bubinga. I've had them for over a decade. They're punchy, but still have a good bottom end. Pretty easy to tune also. Amazing drums at an affordable price. My snare is a Starclassic Maple 5.5 inch (with reinforcing rings) that I got around 2005.

Thanks!

According to wikipedia, Kenney Jones played on that album. Regardless, I agree that the simple, but cool, feel does have a bit of a Phil Collins vibe to it. I love Porcaro's playing, but I think it wouldn't have been the same...kind of like when you watch a good movie and can't imagine anyone other than the actor who actually performed, compared to the people the producers originally wanted to cast!

Thanks! I try, lol!

Thanks! I think it's all drum machine on the studio version, but I tried to do my best with it on regular drums.

Thank you! I don't really know many songs by them. I think I first heard this one over the PA system while grocery shopping one day a long time ago and I thought it was a really good song.

Much appreciated! Thanks!

Thanks, and thanks for listening!

Who doesn’t love a good ballroom blitz?!? Thank you brother!

Without pro recording equipment it's impossible to make it sound any better with the set up I have. I do it for fun. If it sounds mostly decent, quality-wise, I'm ok with it all.

Thanks! It's definitely an epic song.

Thank you very much!

I don't play too many songs by them, to be honest. Basically just some stuff off the first three albums. They got a little too weird for me after that. Other than "Just" I don't think I have anything posted from "The Bends" album. Maybe I'll post some from that one in the future.

Thanks! It has a couple of tricky parts, but it's not too bad. If I'd jammed it a couple of times before hitting record I'd have played it a little better, but it was close enough that I was happy.

I've never been there, and will probably never end up going there, but the flavor of music from NOLA is so damn unique and catchy. I'm a huge fan of Stanton Moore on drums also. He is absolutely fantastic. I play, usually quite poorly, one or two Galactic songs. That's it. He's much too good for me, lol. The Star Turtle album by Harry Connick is another big favorite of mine.
