Cherub Rock - Smashing Pumpkins (Lockdown Cover)

[@lukeswann8096]

Who clicked on this expecting it to be average but then got rocked by how fucking good and accurate this was. Fuck yea

[@Dudlesful]

In the middle of it I scrolled down and see 3,200 views and 69 subs and my brain could not process it at all. I'm so confused. This is the best I've ever heard.

[@PghDon77]

Same here I'm in shock

[@chrisgrubisa3819]

Everybody

[@DomesticatedDemon]

No kidding! The only thing he didn't completely nail is Jimmy, and that's COMPLETELY understandable. It takes many years to get to that level of drumming. That being said, he did a pretty damn good job of imitating his drum playing. Over all one of the most accurate 1/1 covers I've ever seen on YT 👏🏻

[@CloydRoyal]

Amazingly done, man. I would 100% believe this was the Pumpkins.

[@TheSiameseDreamer]

lol

[@shifterbbr1986]

Damn, I play drums this guys plays it all, what a total legend. 🔥🔥

[@Jellybeantiger]

Man,when I bought this album st JB Hifi in the early 90's,my life changed. Corgan sure knew how to write a song.

[@ratman5957]

Siamese dream was by far their best album👌 great job 👏

[@rite2beararms]

Agreed.

[@md.fahmin9438]

@@rite2beararms the only album i've bought again & again

[@nokiaalive]

Siamese and melon collie

[@davidwoolbright3675]

I like Gish better but it’s an awesome album as well.

[@fluffyusa]

Those first 4 albums released back then Gish, Siamese, Pisces Iscariot and MIC during my early to mid 20's. Smashing Pumpkins saved my life while I was serving during those time overseas in Europe.

BEST COVER OF THIS SONG

[@nicholasmoore2590]

Best cover of this I've ever heard. Bloody brilliant!!

[@mick8018]

"if you want something done right, you need to do it yourself..."

[@rollergoalie16]

Interesting. Right handed guitarist/bassist, left handed drummer. Great cover. I scrolled down and just listed to the music without watching the video and it was spot on. Bravo, well done sir.

[@thetinman4543]

I thought that band was awesome and then that other guy comes in with the spot on solo and blew my mind! 6 of the best musicians on the tube!!!

[@sdikmarkz]

I have to admit I was not expecting this to be so absolutely awesome! Great job Simon! You truly rock!

[@mattjones2003]

damn u deserve 100x the ammount of views on this

[@javmechan]

As we say in my country : " ESTA DE LA RECONCHASUMARE !!!!! " Congratulations my bro. Cheers from Lima, Perú.

[@ImmuneToKnives]

Nice! James Mercer covering Smashing Pumpkins!

[@KevinKoperski]

This sounds great. Hard to replicate Pumpkins. You nailed it. Even on the drums!!! Well done.

[@bragvin1]

Fa k me! Insane fill throughout the whole song with constant two guitars playing, well done 😁🥳

[@joshw9736]

Damn. This is so fucking good

[@vikinginspace4881]

You nailed that mate! Impressive!

[@MrDtrone]

Awesome job, man. Sounds so full. All the parts you did to perfection. Very talented. Very good! Such a great tune melodically and rhythmically.

[@TheChris030775]

That just blew my shoes and socks off

[@garyn477]

Well done! I thoroughly enjoyed this!

There is the next guitarist of the Pumpkins right there. GREAT COVER!

Thanks, I wish!!!

One minute in and I couldn’t wait to hit the subscribe button. Greg fucking job man.

[@MexicanoSangreTotonaca]

Uno de los mejores albums de toda la historia; aun que realmente toda discografía de Smashing Pumpkins es maravillosa! Es imposible decidir cuál es el mejor disco. Seamos sinceros; cualquier trabajo de ellos de los 90’s es una verdadera GEMA!

[@fahreinsalleh1892]

Holy f**k...this is the best cover of Cherub Rock to date. Congrats man...awesomely done.

[@georgesabitpol]

Nicely done, and in accordance with the corgan protocol of that album...

[@SlickBlackCadillac]

well done lmao

[@cuteasxtreme]

Not enough tracks and not enough jimmy ;)

[@marc3d]

...protocol?

[@georgesabitpol]

@@marc3d when they recorded Siamese dream, Billy corgan pretty much played every parts save for drums I guess. So this cover is done the same way...

Just coming out of lockdown 4 in Melbourne June 2021 and you sir just blew my mind!!! You nailed every part of the Pumpkins performance. Champion effort!!

[@fluffyusa]

I was in 3 Lockdowns in Bavaria Germany. You got us by one. Wishing you well and Prost/Cheers!

[@KennyDarlingOfficial]

The double tracking on the vocals is pretty spot on. Well met!

[@darrenmoses3385]

Now that was friggin superb. Hats off sir.

[@TheCabster]

WOW! What a talent that you played all the instruments and did the vocals and assume you also recorded and mixed this all yourself as well. Serious kudos from a huge SP fan!

[@TheCabster]

Also, is it just me, or do you play the guitar and bass right-handed but the drums left-handed?????

[@simonhimsworth2175]

@@TheCabster Yup... couldn't find a left-handed guitar as a kid so learnt right-handed

[@craigcoleman967]

I applaud you sir. You and the entire band! Bravo!!! Brilliant cover of a genuine classic

DUUUUUUUUDE!! This sounds amazing!!!

[@rogerkim1910]

Bro, that was awesome.

[@linzkirk]

You've got the guitar tone dial in in perfect, really nice work. I was also surprised on the awesome quality of this vid. How come you only have 234 subscribers. Your ridiculously talented musician, and that's not even mentioning your audio and video production skills.

[@divobravo3133]

Awesome.

[@ericcade2432]

Impressive!

[@CthrillaJ]

Amazing job! I especially liked that you held the 3rd guitar note just like the original. You pretty much did what Billy did in playing all the parts in studio 🤣🤣. Except for the drum part, which the incomparable Jimmy Chamberlin took care of himself.
