[@AgateoPhobia7809]

Pretty sure Cobus is the decendant of the orginal drummer boy.

[@michaelgunderson4353]

I love the way this guy smiles when he drums. It makes it look like he's really having fun and it gives the whole video a funner vibe

[@Mariusss100.]

Cobus, I've been watching you since the begining and I must say I missed the christian music drum covers :)

[@1royalwolf]

I’m a 42 year old welder from Australia mate and this brought a tear to my eye. Just unbelievable the power of epic music. Your skills are a gift you’ve not taken for granted and an inspiration to any one who’s sees this. Simply amazing

[@fivebooks8498]

Every once in a while I just go back and watch this cause its so unbelievably awesome.

[@34theblackman]

Now that is how you finish a decade!

[@cobuspotgieter]

Sean akatigerwoods I’ve got one more little surprise coming before the decade is over 😎

[@34theblackman]

[@eppsthepoet]

Bringing the heat once again! The Cobra never disappoints 💯

[@joshuanm80]

Thanks for the early Christmas gift! 🎁 🎄😀

[@ericabasham6225]

You're the best Cobus, I've been listening to you for 11 years and you've changed my life. Thank you for playing, keep on being the rockstar you are!

[@daveisrael6645]

MERRY CHRISTMAS MAN! THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR TALENT TO US. I'VE BEEN WATCHING YOU SINCE HIGHSCHOOL NOW I'M HAPPY YOU ARE STILL DOING IT! GOD BLESS YOU

[@LesSmith45]

After watching this about 6 times in a row. They took this very old classic Christmas song that is a great song. They took this classic to a completely different level. Its SO GOOD!!! Standing ovation performance!

[@travislewis1676]

Brother I've been watching you for well over a decade and I just want to say I hope you realize how beautiful you can speak through the drums. You're legit one of very few people that can can do that so authentically in my opinion. It's Absolutely amazing! You just do your own thing and let it flow. 👌

[@SaintJohnYT]

*The only acceptable Christmas music I will allow myself to listen to.*

[@apa7676]

SaintJohn good man 😂😂😂😂🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@DaGoodVybe]

You should try listening to all of them! But to start off with, find NF

[@charlesbersola8250]

You obviously haven't heard the Christmas album by *August Burns Red*

[@LindseyRayeWard]

Chills. So, so good!

[@curtiscopeland7975]

After I clean the drool off of my face and I stop smiling, I'll be subscribing! Absolutely amazing!

[@iMykie]

That hit the spot, there's my Christmas spirit! at 2:05 I actually started laughing out of joy. Cobus you're a magnificent inspiration.

[@cobuspotgieter]

Salty Cheesy Haha I LOVE THIS comment, because right when I played that little (improvised) section, I got that little heart-flutter that drums sometimes gives us - so it’s so rad that it passed through this video to you haha! Thanks for the comment!

[@magnogabriel5401]

There's nothing on youtube that makes me happier than when my new idol video comes out, which is simply for me the best drummer ever. I am so grateful for your videos that inspire me to never give up on my dream of someday playing next to you in a super drum collab (as much as I am from Brazil) and being a better drummer every day ❤️🙏

[@lucascomunian5794]

Salve carai kkk

[@thepetermullins]

"The perfect Christmas carol doesn't exi-" "Oh." "Okay then."

[@SirMartello]

My favorite thing about Your videos isn’t the insane amount of skill, or the rock solid beat, but the sheer amount of joy evident in your playing. I admire drummers who can stay calm and collected while laying down sick rhythms, but my favorite are those who can’t help but express the joy of playing. Keep rocking out, Cobus!

[@BenOhMusic]

THE YELLOW CUP IS BACK

[@phillipjansenvanvuuren3760]

Energy drinks & Coke 😂

[@OrangeAgent5]

not forgetting to mention the straw...!

[@markmeri4247]

I love the fact that you know how to decide when to go fast, where to play on the cymbal, when to end a verse/chorus with a hihat instead of a crash or even the fact that you splashed out heavy metal in the last chorus of the song, going wild with that double bass. The technique is impressive but the wisdom of knowing when to use it is something on another level and you my friend have that ability, keep going forth! - fellow drummer

[@GamezBob]

One year later, still my favorite Cobus cover ever

[@SerenadeFamilyVibes]

i got my tears up.. remember every moment in holiday day, year after year changed and faded. but memories will always be the greatest memories if those things were good the everyone who in it!

[@natestaggs822]

Cobus you are absolutely one of my favorite drummers of all time. You are so great.

[@314drums]

I've watched you for a decade. Just wanted to say thanks. Your videos make people smile.

[@Officialbenji91]

Oh my god, cobus playing for king and country Sbdksksls ❤

[@vorne-erhinten-ich834]

For me, the Most talented drummer in history🙏 keep going bro

[@DGaskell_Music]

Legend has it...this song is actually prophetic, foretelling the birth and subsequent development of Cobus: The Dummer boy!

[@kevvdogg1331]

No wonder there was no snow. ❄️❄️❄️ Cause you bring the heat. 🔥🔥🔥 Awesomeness!!!!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@peterveal7242]

After watching this guy for three plus years now, this is by far my favorite video!!!

[@Walterses]

Years later I still come back to this cover and am mesmerised. Such a beautiful heartfelt tribute, genuinely think it's my favourite cover you've put together. Powerful stuff.

[@0REDSOX7]

3:05 - Amazing! My favorite version of this song and you just crushed it!

[@NickDrums06]

Do you know the version of the song? I can’t find it anywhere

[@Joshezellentrepreneur]

DUDE! The passion and and meaning of the song shine through in your playing. Rocking man!

[@brianoneill462]

Cobus, Great cover as always. May you and yours have a Merry Christmas and prosperous 2020. That goes for all your subscribers also Merry Christmas to them and may we all have a prosperous 2020. \m/ Keep on Rocking \m/

[@claremartin4653]

Good GOD that was so EPIC! I'm so glad the black hair is back too, looking mighty fine

[@denny33]

I could literally watch this on repeat for the rest of my life!

[@benjaminwhiteker2004]

This video is has been a part of my Christmas tradition since it came out. I think we’re just about ready for a reprise Cobus!

[@DJMichaelKhoury]

Cobus you are a legend I’ve been watching you for 12 years performing on YT, you are awesome. 👍

[@30secondsforkill]

More than 10 years watching your videos Cobus. Happy holidays and happy new year! PS. I would love to see you playing some Northlane song in 2020. Maybe Rot or Quantum Flux :D

[@chrishattan8210]

Cobus, you just gave me goosebumps! You played them for Him 👑 Love ya dude, can’t wait to see what you come up with in the New Year 🎉

[@JLCollins1028]

Thank you for this! Merry Christmas, Cobus!! It’s not often I see a drum cover video that has me audibly giggling at how incredibly tight and pocketed it is...this was one of them, just makes me happy to watch this!

[@danyalgundi217]

I watch it so manny Times and still can’t get enough from it.

[@beastybeat99]

I've been listening to their Christmas live show on a loop for about 2 weeks and everytime I heard this song, I just started to jam. I love this!!! Merry Christmas Cobus!

[@brandonj7440]

I’ve always loved this version by for king and country but never realized how intense the drumming is on it ! Good job bro

[@gentibiraci]

Their rendition of Little Drummer Boy it’s hands down my favorite. This was the cherry on top. Oh and the yellow mug continues its appearance record.

[@gertrudklopp5364]

So passionate and tender. A great joy to listen to and see this marvelous version.

[@kylewilliam3571]

Past decade I've been getting high off the fact you can produce amazing quality, solid drum playing, music. I enjoy the uploads man. Merry Christmas. One drummer too another.

[@WatchingFromWork6636]

This is older but I just found it. My all-time favorite Christmas song and honestly, I'll listen to it anytime. Amazing version but the fun you are having makes the whole thing even better. Thank you for sharing this with us.

[@chrisdiblasi]

YEEEEESSSSSSS. Been waiting for YEARS for another Christmas song cover from you. I still watch the most wonderful time of the year video every year a few times. This made Christmas that much better. Thank you

[@hackwise]

Merry Christmas cobus! Thanks for this great cover !

[@joshdrumr]

Eyyy his hair is changed again!! Love the cover man! Merry Christmas to all! Much love! 🎈🎉

[@LWYg]

Thanks for the drum cover. My favourite drummer playing one of my favourite Christmas song, from one of my favourite band.

[@Asp8419]

No other Video tells me more that its Christmas Time soon. Watching it every Year around that time... love it.

[@captainrudester1749]

Learning this drum part for my churches Christmas service this year...STOKED.

[@glenjeffs6182]

Awsome as always,listened to him for years,never lets you doun,

[@LesSmith45]

WOW!!!!! I just stubble upon this today by accident. WOW! This honestly has to be the best rock version of this song IMO. This is OUTSTANDING! TO see the drums like that makes this version real special.

[@Dephmonkey11]

One of my absolute favorite songs!!! I wanted to recommend this to Cobus when it came out, but I thought he probably would never look into it. Especially seeing that they're a Christian band and all. Went to see their Christmas concert when they released this album back in 2016. They killed it! Opened up the show with this, every member of the band behind a different drum beating away at them. It was awesome! But what else can I expect from For king and country, they are literally the greatest live band out there now.

[@TheFoo_Fighter]

Impeccable, smooth and hard hitting. A joy to watch!

[@dylanhartland8959]

You killed it Bro! Absolutely loving the content you put out AND the passion you play with. Keep on keeping on!

[@ajmarkle96]

Yes! For King and Country is awesome

[@justnsmukr1436]

Thanks Cobus! I'm a fan of your covers and my kids love this song!

[@Drumlver69]

Yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssss. I literally have been listening to this version all Christmas day. Love this!!!!!!!!!!

[@aaronortega4612]

For King & Country y tu son de lo mejor!!

[@changovanilla]

This guy blows my mind, I love it! Lots of people can drum but not everyone drums from the inside out.

[@sprinklermadness]

your drumming videos are by far the best on youtube. Best drumsound, camera angles and style

[@chad-tacular]

SO GOOD! The cymbals were singing. The independence was awesome. Finessed the set...... Wow. Just...... Wow!

[@juanchi_elquezapa]

I’m sure Jesus did smile at you while you played. Merry Christmas from Uruguay!

[@scmcarthur]

I watch this multiple times very year, Cobus did cause a great job

[@akirathearchibald7958]

That tiny trap like cymbal is just so amazing

[@connorvdrums]

This is an impeccable drum cover! I have been drummer for 9 years and this is one of my all time favorites to play! I’m even playing it for a scholarship audition for college in a month and was wondering where you were able to find a drum less track for this song?

[@Walterses]

The secret is, it's not drummless. In fact pretty much every cover he does still has drums in the background if you listen. He has said in the past that he does sometimes edit the song to take out as much of the drums as possible, but in this one it's very much present.

[@robertgriffin30185]

Officially my favorite cover

[@phlcollison]

I always expect the "COME ON!!" shout at the end of this. So so good!!

[@Ghosthunter-pq2dn]

Hey could you maybe do the Audio Adrenaline version?

[@Kristianmbossow]

You having such a blast behind the drums makes this video so much better and ignites the fire in the heart of those watching! ❤️🔥💪🏻 And such a great freaking great drummer you are Cobus! It’s a pleasure watching your videos! Much love from Denmark

[@truthseeker11]

You know this song is amazing when someone already has a cover of it.

[@shadedbro12]

King and country is one of the best bands Ive heard. And this cover of drummer boy shows both your skill on the drums, and their song compliments you. Gg bud.

[@cpdfan41]

I was left speechless by the end of the video. This cover is epic!!!!!!! Thank you for sharing your gift!!!!!!

[@shockerthreeone]

Awesome! Celebrating the birth of the King of Kings with some on fire drumming!!

[@jonlapolla3984]

To put it simply... Dude, I effing love this!! Well done!!!

[@Sticks017]

I cant believe you covered this! My church band has played this song for years for christmas eve. So awesome

[@vwbr3nt]

KILLED IT COBUS!!! Best Christmas Present ever!!!

[@favourchibuike2427]

OK this was epic

[@retroelectro1190]

Congratulations....you brought a tear to my eye.

[@Charles53412]

What must may not know is, Cobus, you are playing the parts of three and four people. Which you did Flawlessly !! May the Lord continue to Bless You ! Have a Very Merry Christmas !!

[@G-ManFenom]

Cobus! I’ve been watching you since you started playing on KZbin. You NEVER cease to amaze me brother! What a joy to watch you play! Always an inspiring watch! God bless! Merry Christmas and happy new year!

[@andrewcarolan8134]

I've been watching you since the very beginning in the church. Actually met you once too. So incredible to watch you grow and continue to put out great music! Just wanted to say excellent dynamic range in this piece, the quiet slow bits really emphasize the power of the loud sections.

[@Andy4543]

soo tasteful! love it! merry christmas cobus!

[@jjyh7yy]

Wow... looking effortless as always, Cobus. Merry Christmas to all you drummer boys and girls!!!

[@arthurdobson2019]

[@unitedtask1412]

Went to there concert in Dallas on Nov 27 with my brothers best experience ever and this song is my favorite! Next to o come o come Emmanuel

[@ibartobotes6896]

My hoendervleis het hoendervleis 😱 this is how this song was meant to be played 🙌🏼

[@jonathangonzales1988]

This is ironic in 2018 I remember singing this at my church carol service with choir and this went off and literally this give me the and goosebumps.

[@billfreda9053]

F’in awesome bro! God Bless and Merry Christmas

[@do33ychamb64]

Enjoyed that version good job cobus first time ive heard that version of the song better than orriginal in my opinion. Visually exciting to watch aswell as listen to. The only instrument aswell as the saxaphone that I've ever wanted to learn and like hearing

[@festizio1187]

Even in August this song is awesome. Great cover.
