[@cobuspotgieter]

Thumbs up if you're watching this in 2021 😎 UPDATE: I just released a new DRUM LESSON PACK! -> bit.ly/CobusLessons. 5 lessons, 90 minutes, for 27 bucks. It will make you better at tuning drums, mixing drums, I'll show you my practice routine, my worst habits as a self-taught drummer, and teach you one of my favourite linear licks. Thanks for being here!

[@alanweak]

+PjzEdits CSGO Content & More I won't disagree with you, but I will respond by urging you to reconsider this comment and check out his duet cover with Atom Willard on the song 'Heaven' by Angels and Airwaves. I consider that to be his best cover to date. xD This one is so damn good too, which is why I too am here in 2016.

[@Camgotay]

+midnight serenity Cobus is great brah, chill.

[@thomasalmond8825]

I'll never stop watching this. Easily one of the best things Cobus ever did! Incredible

[@aldoronquillo1385]

One of the best recommendations of youtube yet

[@zubinparekh2216]

[@dannymoore8785]

Love this guy. Yep, still watching.

[@jakebutron4982]

Always

[@aarondavis6155]

Man. Thank you algorithm for bringing me back to this. I remember when this came out. I watched it so many times. One of the best covers ever.

[@2t0y]

BEST DRUM COVER EVER

[@srenpreuthun6556]

The thing I LOVE about Cobus is the power flowing from his soul into the drums.. It's amazing to see such passion and skill!

[@klairebear1986]

Still my favorite drum cover ever. It just sounds so incredible. I can't listen to the original because it is missing these amazing drums. What a phenomenal musical ear he has. Just knows what sounds good in these songs. Even though this one is from almost 6 years ago, it is still my absolute favorite.

[@alejandromayorga8614]

klairebear1986 I though i was the only one that felt weird about the original song... You are right this cover is amazing

[@heyitsrachel]

Every once in a while I find myself coming back to this video. It's by far one of my favorite drum covers. :)

[@velontereddick2856]

This is definitely my favorite video by him I be doing the same thing as you

[@yousuxalot]

I've come back a few times as well , excellent cover

[@PaedeNH]

Same

[@sheyajeansopra5832]

Same 😊

[@chrisvargas8156]

Damn!! He's a genius... Cobus makes any song sound better than the original.

[@RealHurdle69]

Chris vargas I know, I sat through the whole thing with my mouth gaping, purely entranced.

[@RealHurdle69]

***** And you, my friend, need to stop jumping to conclusions. Thank you for being so concerned, but no thank you. I'm fine where I am.

[@RealHurdle69]

***** I'll pass

[@snocap393g3]

I'll be honest, I just stumbled on this....I am Blown away! Blown away! You have big-time talent...and I see you have quite a few drum covers...Also, I think there is a reason that your 30STM covers get so many views. Your style and their music meld together seamlessly, you come from the same sonic place. Thanks for this, I am really impressed

[@JosephPallagi-n5q]

It's absolutely still one of my favorite drum covers. I remember when this dropped.

[@ZippyBumpHD]

[@chadlecraft4971]

2022! Still come back to this every once and awhile. Awesome

[@Travisliang8183]

It’s been 9 years ! I still watch this amazing cover! You really inspired me of drumming! Thank you so much Cobus!!

[@crazzzzydood]

After years of watching you and this, having you In my head finally want to say: you’re amazing. It’s beautiful to watch passion effort and dedication come to fruition. Thanks dude for reminding me the push and the grind is worth it.

[@bragybhoy]

this is legitimately my most favorite of all your covers...your other covers are really great...but this one...it may be old, but every time i watch this, i end up pumped up af and just wanna do everything!

[@tiagorodrigues4742]

I'm in 22nd of November 2019, and this guy was one of the responsables for me to enjoy playing drums. Now when i pass by for some drum covers i end up always seeing this masterpiece and this amazing drummer

[@mr.d1546]

This is my favourite cover drum. Congrats cobus, you are the reason i stay in drum

[@aidenjames4161]

Cobus this is without doubt my favourite cover you have ever done, you hit the nail on the head with a very hammer. Brilliant

[@CheenoTheRedstoner]

Without a doubt the most iconic drum cover of all time

[@mYOwngUn]

I watched him in the years back, just remembered him and am on a Cobus Drum Session for the last hours now. Its so beautiful , like each and every cover. I was a child back then about 14 years old. Those were the best youtube times!

[@danielledeguzman2613]

one of the best covers! it's already 10 years and I still watching this

[@jeffery2280]

4:02 to 4:25 = chills.

[@Manx2manir]

Well aside from the fact the drum cover is awesome, the song itself is really awesome, well written, and well composed. Salute to both 30 Seconds to Mars and Cobus!

[@Farts34567]

When I was 4-6 a couple years ago me and my dad would sit down every night and watch conus drum covers. This was my favourite drum cover he ever did. I’m 12 now almost 13 and I’ve since moved my passion to guitar but thank you cobus for a great continuing child hood

[@instapizzabmx4206]

Just imagine what it would’ve sounded like without the song over it. Just hear the sound of drums roll over the mountains 👏🏻

[@timoteus011]

How can anyone give a thumb down with this Performance. Great Job, Cobus allways goosebumbs watching it.

[@alicemychelle2366]

Because some people have to piss on everything 🤷🏻

[@dmeme195]

This was the first drum cover I ever watched Good memories 🥺

[@PetrivanWyk]

I thought nothing could get better than his drum-playing. Then I saw with how much passion he does it and how much he enjoys it! Cobus, jy is maar net ongelooflik.

[@shikharsingh4150]

0:34 are there any bears following me?...nope....let’s rock

[@dragulia_venaro]

Nooo.. He was looking for *bigfoot!* 😆

[@thejuniorseas7683]

Cobus: Good morning nature! Let's rock!

[@bintangramadhan8245]

Lol

[@icar558]

Nice one

[@Lemonhead8890]

Cobus, after watching this video several times, because I literally love your rendition of this song, I can see that burning passion in your eyes. You truly enjoy playing the drums for the music, and I can admire that. You put so much emphasis on your videos and yet you still smile while playing what I would call incredibly difficult series of rifts. Keep up the good work! You inspired me back to music after a long dispel of horrible trend music.

[@MatthewWilliams01]

Coop3r uploaded his cover of this track today. As always, he overdid it. Your cover is much better. You should upload more often.

[@MatthewWilliams01]

He's a good drummer, don't get me wrong, but he always uses the same fills and adds loads of his stuff into his covers. This guy is one of the best on KZbin to watch. The only problem with him is that he doesn't upload very often.

[@clint5351]

+Joe Marsden jealous...

[@nathandrums0]

Well I mean, he has endorsements from companies you never will sooooo.

[@clint5351]

i dunno about overdone but thats true cobus version is still my favorite drum cover...i thought coopers kinna sucked honestly

[@keenherzl5397]

+Matthew Williams Drums Well, its True XD

[@Cupra317hp]

Cómo adorna los vacíos con los pequeños golpes en los platillos. Es hermoso, melodía, suavidad agresiva y agresividad pasiva. Balance. Arte. Cobus te amo 🥲❤️

[@ThallanarRabidtooth]

He'd need a breathing apparatus to do it, then. Most normal people, without training, cannot breathe on the summit of Mount Everest, the oxygen is too thin that high up. Not to mention you'd be drumming so that requires more oxygen.

[@nevermind3253]

you tried so hard to get some likes, lol

[@Usuck7645]

so much love in how he plays the drum you can just see it

[@rweima03]

still one of my favorite drum covers. I listen to this at least once per quarter, probably once per month. Just incredible.

[@tija1012]

Got me all emotional, I feel the tears trying me lol even after all these years of watching. So much passion.

[@dannymoore8785]

Cobus lived, loved and nailed this song on a mountain side!! Great cover!!

[@born68]

my grandmother jut did a cover of this song in the grand canyon while hovering under a hot air baloon. she's like 91but it was amazing

[@vetouu]

+born68 That's pretty fucking amazeballs man.

[@born68]

it was a bucket list thing

[@instakillduvel7430]

[@CEKA1599]

Cobus, i know you since 12 years or something i dont know, since i play drums i watched your covers and learned by watching, than practicing in real life. Cobus, you are and you will be the Greatest Drummer of the whole World. And you know that. You are such an Idol for me.

[@Chilling311]

These drums surely got me feeling to travel to Mars

[@amberfinlay4394]

Just spent a good half hour trying to find this video I remember being like 15 when I found this video. All I had was "drum remix" couldn't remember who or what song but I finally found it!!

[@ameramer-qk6eb]

2019 and still the best drum cover i have ever watched!

[@CEKA1599]

Than 1 year later came this. Nothing beat this cover. Unbelievable that is my almost favorite cover of all times. For 10 years, i played the most covers you played

[@JaredHalleyMusic]

Wahoooo!!! Rock on :) Simply amazing Cobus...would love to collab with you someday

[@Thirdeyeddeer]

amazing!! i can almost feel how much effort and love you lay in the drums very inspiring!

[@ThomasTing90]

This is so epic. Love the energy!!! I just wana go running after watching this.

[@lokal.bassist]

I'm not a drummer but cobus introduced me to drum cover world.. He was the first drummer I've seen in terms of covering songs.. still does the best and ya he deserves millions subs 🤙

[@MsHina94]

Seriously, very amazing drummer he is ! I really love this drum cover.

[@josephguertin311]

this looks fun, and looks like your having wile playing the drums, thats what its all about

[@xXBirdsmurfXx]

Could you imagine just kinda walking through those woods and just suddenly hear someone playing the drums? I'd probably be like what da fuck are you doing dude?

[@justingarriottjr4316]

Lol that would be weird. What if you could see yourself in the very background waving to the camera from really far away lol.

[@games68775]

I would keep searching until I found where the person playing drums is and then play them myself xD

[@justingarriottjr4316]

Lol totally just photobomb and grab the sticks and bang on the drums

[@wordtobigbird1.charleswate322]

I would enjoy it.

[@byokushin9140]

They say if you look into a mirror and say "Bloody Cobus" three times, and head into the woods. Cobus comes and play for you live.

[@subwoofa9313]

I love the passion that you give your music covers, this is the kind of people we need and not with modern music !!!!

[@bryanotero2176]

I used to watch this cover as a kid man ... time flies

[@CaseyOKelly]

I want a girl who looks at me the way that Cobus looks at his drumset...

If a drummer plays the drums in the forest, does he make a sound? He sure did! Great video

[@HumanBeingSpawn]

But how do you know the sound was made if you weren't there? Do trees make noise when they fall in forest?

[@phoenixwright5545]

+Human Being Of course they do, what the fuck

Saw him perform with Busted last night. He's come a long way in 4 years.

[@1NickRyan]

You have officially made me the most jealous person on the planet. Beautiful drums. Awesome sound.

[@Daresco]

I love and hate this video at the same time. I love it, because to me it's the best drum cover ever. I haven't seen and can't imagine anything better. But I hate it at the same time, because it made it clear to me that no matter how much I love the drums, I will never be able to play them even near as good as this guy did. Still coming back to watch it again from time to time.
