[@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!

[@titan7687]

Love this song ❤️

[@TheM1k1E]

April 2019 - Still amaze me... Wish this project can come up again !

I hope so...from malaysia

[@lucasramirez4427]

August 2023 / I remembered this song, I heard it for the first time 10 years ago... it's still rocking

[@connorham8]

this song should be in a movie.

[@wirawhyra]

ANT-MAN lol :v

[@TheTutorialGuyz]

I don't know why people don't like the singer?? I think he is amazing

[@wirawhyra]

he is amazing, cool, his voice is smooth :v

[@IIAmoresII]

He's great.

[@samgrinter5557]

I think the singer knows what he is doing, all the pitches and notes are correct. What really brings his voice out is the way the guitars are tracked, very syncopated and true. I dig this music, I hope they go places if they haven't already, talented bunch of musicians right there!

[@TheTutorialGuyz]

yeah man he's amazing

[@FairyCRat]

I just hope he will be more energetic on May 31st, when VL will perform live. I like energetic leadsingers.

[@TheXCobra11]

i never get bored watching cobus playing the drums

[@mustafajunayed1485]

Came back to here more...Nostalgic ....Keep doing the good work,Cobus.. Little way forward to 1 Million.

[@MuteMyMum]

It's actually surreal to see how far you've progressed as a drummer. You've gone from originally filming covers in a church, to now writing your own music, with your band in a studio. A journey of a thousand miles, begins with a single step. Major congratulations man, keep on rockin'.

[@Typhon2176]

October 2024 - Still love this song to this day!

[@pataudi8025]

We need like a 2023 version of this. With all you guys doing like a remote studio session and spicing it up! Also maybe new songs the same way @cobuspotgieter make it happen sir!

[@marcomaticc9420]

This is nostalgic.

[@aarwonable]

I really just love the beginning. A time warp. I was late to the Cobus game... the first Cobus video I ever saw was the All Star drum cover. It blew me away. It was my favorite song at the time.

[@radium05]

Who was reminded of this banger after Cobus’ drum removing app video?

[@HAUSHEDMUSIC]

Haha, yes! Me2

[@pataudi8025]

Me!

[@GloriousRed1]

Cobus, I have been a sub for years I just want to say to see you learn yourself at playing drums and getting better and better through the years to now having a band, Brilliant I have Bought the Album Hopefully many more of You're fans will do the same to get the band featured on itunes.

[@theechelonofmars]

Still keep coming to this song after so many years.

[@Dronanknight]

Ah Cobus you make me Happy :) The Kind how u work and how much you the Music Love. You are a Great Drummer. Keep it Up Cobus!!! Greetings from Germany. !!!

[@emmanuelsequoyah2565]

[@ronniepatagnan5494]

it's so nice to see COBUS stepping down to give opportunity to others. Every band member should be equal like what he did

[@smilodonb73]

[@Demonicglory]

Glad to have seen everything work out! I've been drumming now for the past 6 years. I remember watching your covers on KZbin on repeat back when I started.

[@MammothRevolution]

[@niruntrayakul7050]

2016 I'm still listen

[@JonasSchewelius]

This song is very very good.

[@Severen45]

Cobus is just a crazy drummer who deserves to have his band make it big so that he will be recognized as one of the best modern rock drummers in this time period.

[@chandra6247]

[@iKaGe01]

Searched myself after his recent vid and was left sad lol

[@Typhon2176]

I have it on spotify

[@Randy-wj8ke]

it is available now

[@TiicD]

One of the most inspirational videos I've ever seen. This is why you're my idol Cobus. Please never stop what you do. You're amazing in so many peoples eyes.

[@anikamcflurry5276]

2021 and i still feel the chills. I remember the first weeks of its release. Theres so many critique saying that with all those funds and this is what they came up. I was like yeah. A masterpiece.

[@japanesesen]

Very nice! I have enjoyed your video very much so.. :))

[@johngrahammusic9545]

the chorus sounds like tragedy + time by rise against.

[@martinmikula4734]

..that's what I was about to post but I had read some posts below if anybody noticed..:)

[@TheUltimateNavigator1]

En Svensk Grabb This was made first but they are very similar

[@10rk61]

this is the best $80,000+ can get you? might as well have been listening to linken park the entire time

[@Smellene]

Choo choo go away, and dont come back some other day

[@10rk61]

just saying if i was one of the people who donated id be wanting my money back

[@ryder5431]

I typicaly hate this music, but i mean cmon its a good tune!

[@10rk61]

i dont necessarily think its bad, but with the wide range of dynamics and sounds that $80,000 implies, im sure at least a few would agree with me when i say they did not use their money very wisely

[@10rk61]

Slide Gaming. what does him asking for it or not have anything to do with it? the point is that he was given $80,000 for a music project and the best he could come up with is over produced garbage that focuses on polishing turds that would only appeal to toxic, musically immature keyboard warriors who will take any piece of shit that a famous name gives them

[@Soundsphun]

I think this is the first time ive ever posted a comment, but this band deserves it really! what a story, what an exciting song! im totally sold.

[@the_Trou_badour]

man...! i seriously can not stop listening to this song! i just want you guys to keep going and keep being a band and make a ton of awesome song such as this one! absolutely my favorite song right now! its flippin amazing! great work

[@Dariddda]

you doesn't even need talented musicians to make such music. basic guitars, uber cliche song, cliche video, 1 among many singer, cliche lyrics.... so dekcuf up.... if Cobus wasn't involved in this band i bet NONE of u would give a kcuf.

[@shadedbro12]

why the fuck, do you write your fucks backwards?

[@CMW345]

I'm 4 years late but you sir, are an asshole and know nothing about making music

[@whatsupwith41]

So unoriginal.

[@eitanskital7735]

+Alberto Torres why, how dare you insulting the legendery cobus

[@osmanthus5427]

Just like how your parents made you

[@albertotorres1635]

+Eitan Toogendhaft the song is unoriginal not cobus, he is a good drummer

[@rawnuckk]

+Asher Tan U just rekt him 😂😂

[@BrianGivensYtube]

You could argue music is unoriginal, everything has been done 100 times. When will the next 'music' be invented?

[@FLiPPiNoise]

i can see this band go far in the music world the vocalist has a freakin awesome voice its so full of emotion.

[@ronshrauger5967]

GREAT EVERYTHING! Lyrics in this are amazing. This song will ketch everyone by that feeling you get inside when you hear perfection.

[@benjamin.kelley]

This video in itself is inspirational. Just seeing Cobus surprised by how many backers and how much funding went into one simple, yet perfect idea gives me so much joy to see that there is so much talent in this world waiting to be released. This is a perfect debut song. I've been following Cobus for about 4 years now, and this song and project is again just very inspirational. I'm already working on a drum cover and I can't wait to hear the next one guys! Good luck on your journeys!

[@johnkew]

Guys, awesome stuff. I'm so glad I was able to watch this truly grassroots project grow and donate to its success. Awesome song, mixing, playing, video, everything. I smiled all the way through, and each time I listen, it gets better. This needs to be on the radio everywhere. Can't wait to hear more.

[@Kuyjac258]

I got my iTunes copy of Way Up Here a couple of days ago and have listened to nothing else since. I love this album. Well done boys be proud of what you have accomplished.

[@kokonogunnn]

[@094EliSa]

Nowadays it's really hard to find good music, but with all certainty I can say that you guys are a group of the few exceptions, just pure talent. Your music is incredible. I really hope that you can achieve great goals with your music and make it real far with this project :)

[@TLWezon]

These guys deserve alot more than this , they are superstars, they are SUPERHEROS!

[@sebaslimm]

the starting of the video stirred something within me. from you filming in your church, to now, the different kits, cameras, cymbals and your set up evolving over the years. It shows how you have grown as a musician. I'm super proud to be your fan! :)

[@jesus_aio]

Still one of my favorite go to feel good videos. Cobus your drumming is everything bro. Well done.

[@meditericamusicforyoursoul351]

[@faizalichtiarfajri7179]

A new one of Cobus Potgieter. The song is very impressive, I love it. If the band is really running the concert, I was the first person who would buy a ticket

[@rubentc97]

This is amazing, everything, how cobus gathered all the memberes of the band by youtube, the sound, the video, i love how the band matches perfectly and creates a nice sound, fuckin perfect man keep going like that.

[@Caseysvids]

I really like d the beginning where its showed all the top views of the past drum series. It reminded me how much I used to watch his videos all the time.

[@supersmashfm]

Cobus, I love to hear your original music. I also love your covers of other bands but your original beats are amazing.

[@RainbowBelow]

When i listen to this I really feel the music. Cobus mate, I wish more people were looking at music and talent the way you do. Keep it up!

[@Hicksy810]

This is superb! Excellent job bringing this whole thing together Cobus. Keep going! You've definitely got me on board!

[@SafetyLost]

I don´t know what to say....but i need to say something because that...is the reason why i,m awake at 6 am watching videos, all these night i was waiting for something like that, dude that was awesome, and maybe you wont read this, but if you do i want you to know that here from Bolivia i cant stop listening that song over and over again

[@Dragonwar0]

Man I'm glad I found youtube when it was so young and to see so many youtubers make it big its so inspiring. I hope that youtubers wont become corrupted as it continues to grow. KEEP GOING COBUS!

[@arwinmartdizon7516]

Never fails to hype me up til this day

[@harryplaysdrums]

These guys need to go out on tours, and keep making more albums! They are an amazing band and can go really far

[@mcvicar69]

I've been watching you for years and following your videos to do with the KZbin band and I am absolutely astonished. Well done guys!

[@irauisousaify]

Cobus, your new kit is fantastic and this color is very beautiful, I am a big fan of yours here in Brazil, Some drummers here in Brazil do not know his work, whenever I talk to other drummers present their work and take her with me Some videos in my smarthphone to show them, today you have been a big influence for me, I am drummer for 12 years and have seen a few drummers with intelligence and accuracy you have, congratulations and luck now with the ventura lights. Big Hug ...!!

[@firstoffrando]

2013 to 2015 still listening to your bro. Love you cobus.

[@JadeBoxXI]

0:43 What a beautiful moment... Well done Cobus, you've always been one of my biggest hero, I'm now a drummer because of one NSync Pop cover you put up six years ago. Well done :')

[@Misc0nc3pt1on]

Cobus, bro... ive honestly been watching almost every one of your videos since i found you. ever since i saw the cover of you doing one of my use to be favorite songs "im made of wax larry, what are you made of" ive always loved your style. your so inspirational, and this project truely shows how anything is possible, and how everything is overcomable. so thank you Cobus, and Ventura Lights. i wish one day to be as good as a drummer as you. and in a band that can live up to the skillset of this.

We're on our way on finding the last member of our band and along the way, I, we, this never went out of our mind. when we sometimes feel we're not be able to do it, we browse back to your site and this video kept us going. Someday we'll be able to do what you did , and maybe do better if God allow. thank you very much Cobus and the band for being an inspiration to many people. Goodluck and Godbless. YOU ROCK! Jj
