Pink Floyd - Comfortably Numb - Drum Cover

[@SF-xz9ol]

As anyone learning the drums we have probably watched countless drum videos on youtube. Every now and then you come accross someone who can inspire you to keep practicing not only because they are a good musican and play well, but have really connected to the music they are covering just as we all want too. Thanks man

[@showmoke]

I’m 75 and for me this is the greatest song EVER written. I’ve heard it probably 1000 times, but it never fails to bring a tear to the eye. I first heard it when it was first released in the late 1970’s. I bawled my eyes out as it affected me so much emotionally. It was a good thing I was on my own at the time as it would have been rather embarrassing.

[@LouSassoleSledgecock_III]

It really is an absolute masterpiece

[@donlanthier877]

Hi Ewan. Well it probably goes without saying that this is my favourite Pink Floyd song of all time and in your cover you kept such tight control and I have to imagine that it must feel hard to rein it in particularly during the last solo, the outro. My god you held on so well! I caught a fleeing glimpse..... Ewan of your entire mastery of your drum kit and all things Pink Floyd! Loved this totally!!!

[@ewancunningham]

Hey Don, sorry for the late reply. By the amount of likes your comment got shows how nice it was! Thank you as always for leaving such encouraging and supportive comments. I think you'll like my Dobbie Hall videos, particularly the last one ;-)

[@donlanthier877]

Nice to hear from you ewan, I'll check out those Dobbie Hall videos. I have to imagine they will be exceptional as is your usual standard! I wish you continued success!!

[@ThinWhiteAxe]

Comfortably done. Excellent job.

[@corbanrdl]

I love how i could see you really anticipating that lovely legend of a solo at the end. I’m a drummer myself too, and whenever I play to this song, I can’t help but just play every note (as much as possible) with my kit, mimicking Gilmour’s guitar

[@supratikchakraborty6422]

Finally! This was a pretty faithful cover.

[@ElizabethWrobel-r3w]

May God bless everyone in the universe with no exceptions!!!!....…..❤...…….I adore you Jesus Christ and thank you for all your blessings!!!..... Amen.... Happy 4th let's celebrate!🎉❤ 🥳

[@larryregal8301]

A drummer who can vocal and play at the same time is another level..Carry on brother

[@larryregal8301]

Lower the ride cymbal..it will save you rotater cup sergury 30 yrs from today.

[@echoesoffloyd5000]

Your drumming makes me comfortable, Ewan

[@montana_eq1790]

this is amazing, my favorite band is Pink Floyd and comfortably numb is my favorite song, i'm more or less a beginner at drumming and i would love to play this song someday.

[@ximellojaime]

This is a beautifull drum cover for the best song with a ending solo inthe history, you are great bro!!

[@foxtrot789]

Bro I have so much respect and admiration for you. Your passion for Floyd actually makes me emotional.

[@ewancunningham]

Hey guys! Hope you enjoy this drum cover. I recently filmed a few more full covers at The Dobbie Hall which went really well. I also uploaded my very first original demo to my other channel which you can find here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/p6mzkKiYotR5etU ...I would really appreciate feedback :-) Thanks!

[@ChristianContemporaryMusic02]

Why do I get a dire straits vibe when listening to this masterpiece??. No honestly, excellent drum cover, man! You rock!

[@AltonFinklea]

This song motivates me to never give up on life.

[@ryanroberts5195]

My father played this when i was a child im now 43 yrs old and my dad passed away last year just a few weeks after my 41st birthday this song is the song i plan on learning to play on the drum set that i am right now purchasing. I hope i can do it justice like you have in this video. I really want to be able to play this song and many others that my father used to lesson to when i was a child. thank you for playing this song Ewan

[@Kristy_not_Kristine]

❤❤❤

[@dparsons343]

Spot on! Every fill, very Mason like!

[@RafaelCBeltrame]

Since English is not my first language, I really don't know how to express what I felt listen to your cover... It is brilliant, clean, objective (without "firulas", as we say in Portuguese) and wonderful as the original drums! Congratulations from Brazil!

[@jaygatto]

You got the "dhu, do, do DOH", nailed it

[@artyb3115]

You are unbelievable :) When your video appears, it's probably like a new Pink Floyd album is released. Thanks for sharing these recordings!

[@DailyDrumLesson]

Love the song.. you did a great job here!

[@guzdolanmaz5541]

Enjoying your Pink floyd covers, you’re making all perfectly!

[@masonkelter]

This is the one we've been waiting for! The drums seem very easy on this song, but they are so classy and they must be played at a very consistent tempo.. One wrong move and the whole mood is ruined. You MASTERED this one man. Congrats to you, and I can't wait to see more.. Preferably, Astronomy Domine, but don't feel rushed.

[@luisvilarinho1965]

Congratulations Ewan. I play bass in a Pink Floyd's tribute band and I always advise the drums man to see your videos. Great job

[@roy8542]

Finally! U r the best drummer ever!

[@matiaslucasroger]

Hi Ewan. Congrats for your excellent playing. Tbh, this is my fav pink Floyd song, and you nailed it. I would like to know if I can get the isolated track of the drums you played. It would be great, thank you.

[@WillCasallas]

Where is my Atom Heart Mother cover? Please do one, Ewan. It's impossible to find one.

[@ronschneiberg5793]

Sold me, no crazy and show boat, rudiments, only, and I am not a pro, but absolutely love the your techniques.

[@nathanbenhamou3051]

You have the same T shirt that Nick Mason wore in Pompeii concert plus you're drumming very well!

[@RecordingBlog]

Relaxed and wondeful - Ewan at his best! Do you play to an additional click or just the Playback as guideline?

[@irwincooper6173]

Brilliant as usual Ewan...waiting for you to perform in London

[@cristiano2pf3lz]

Best cover in the woooorlld maaannn!!!! Fantastic!!!

[@steveh9436]

Well done Ewan. Nailed it.

[@tonywilson9174]

Damn young blood. I'm an old school drummer and I loved the passion and precision u played with. Your ride and crash were crisp and solid. Way to go man. Keep it up 👍

[@marcosc_T.B.]

Hello Ewan! Watching yourself as you are drumming is a real experience. I personally prefer this version of Live 8 concert in 2005.

[@klauzer3593]

Played along with this video on my bass. You are amazing my friend.

[@johnnyallen4536]

Excellent ! Ewan Cunningham

[@lordloftus10]

Wow.Don,t get much better than that Ewan.Beautiful song played majestically.Bravo .Keep on rockin my friend.😊

[@Edelweiss1102]

One of my Pink Floyd favorites. Well done!

[@richarlesveledadilelio9967]

Congratulations guy. The best song of PF.

[@ranajaymallik2226]

Very well done, Ewan! Loved it..and you got a retro looking pair of headphones too!

[@teslatesla9100]

Crisp and precise. Really enjoyed it!

[@nischayrathore6873]

You make this look so effortless. Good job mate. Cheers.

[@simonsimon1983]

[@steveapril378]

[@OfficialMarc1]

beeeeen waiting soooo long for this!!!

[@VictorhugoHernandez-o6l]

Muy buen trabajo amigo saludos desde México

[@groovymotion5706]

Another great cover! One of my favourite PF song!

[@tamasonor4011]

Niiiice! This ones all about "leaving spaces" and allowing the music to breathe. Such a fun one to play as a drummer, and of course you did a beautiful job with this as always Ewan. EDIT... oooh, that Paiste swiss crash sounds great at the end. Almost like Nick's China! Do my eyes deceive me or is it a bit out of shape?

[@jimiknowsbest201]

Well executed Ewan ... Great timing.... loved the outro.....

[@drum-servicewaalwijk4054]

Great drumming, great sound, great cover!

[@pete1927]

Great cover of a great song.

[@anelchaidez4949]

me encantó, me fascino, lo amé

[@vicentecornejo9635]

You did it amazing! Congratulations

[@lcrosbylola]

Awesome!!! You’re so talented!!!

[@williamaltman1084]

Good work Ewan

[@eduardoelias8007]

"Comfortably Numb" no way...!!!Congratulations Ewan...!!! amazing man...!!!✌

[@zachgarnett5292]

Excellent work! Have you covered Us and Them yet?

[@grahamdesmond3547]

It's a little tricky. But I'm getting there. It's a great song to drum to. Good drumming

[@morganaota7433]

Amazing cover!!! I felt the emotion!

[@AlmirCreton]

At 0:47 you tried an attack and missed, that's part of it. Sometimes I miss too. However, it came out really well. You're a good drummer!👋👋👋👋👋👋

[@peterwright5249]

Love you’re playing an so much talent an emotion in wot you do wot a great gift you have bin given an have worked so hard to achieve it to 👌

[@jimmwilcox]

Great cover Ewan, do the acoustic panels make much of a difference to the sound? Thinking about getting some, not really sure whether they are worth it.

[@ewancunningham]

Hey Jim, they make a subtle difference, nothing big. We only have them on one wall. They just dampen the sound and take away some of the natural reverb :) I'd say they're definitely worth it considering we only paid abut £40 for all of them.

[@colin240359]

Excellent job as always!!

[@headofvengarl8893]

Are you using one of your crashes as a ride in the chorus? That's pretty cool.

[@FIGLI0UNIC0]

Wow... This is amazing

[@crash1238]

Hey Ewan, just wondering how you have those album covers stuck on your wall or what is holding them there. I'm thinking of designing my new Bedroom music style to display my record collection. Thanks and keep going with those covers! They'll take you a long way. Cheers, Tim.

[@miabellagsd]

Nick would be proud...Good Job

[@MrGolesario]

Perfect song, good play.

[@emanuele4057]

fantastic cover!

[@GastónDaviddavidReinaldi]

Me encanta Pink Floyd❤😊

[@mikemyers2626]

Awesome job! Have you covered Time?

[@MrGolesario]

Solo is the best part of this video.

[@orly68]

Bravissimo Grande Pezzo

[@davidcoelho1339]

Well done man!

[@berendwijbenga9960]

Brilliantly done! BTW The PF exhibition in London ends with this song.

[@shanelester6471]

This is helpful for me for doing the bassline

[@Alenbrant]

A cover of fucking, best channel of covers that already saw

[@johnnyallen4536]

Perfect ! You look like you could feel it .(Locked in the pocket ).

[@carloscampos3435]

Mais uma vez parabéns! Congratulations 🎊

[@Lowensteiner]

You are a monster!! Amazing

[@giu.c.5080]

Complimenti!

[@sighupcmd]

I have a friend, he have one eye all his life, and he's good drummer! You don't need to see, you must hear - his teacher in special School said. I totally agree! Thank you!

[@nealmoreno7780]

Sick shit man... Cheers! Keep up the great work!

[@bonniehawkins2979]

Excellent. Thank you.

[@fireblazeinc]

[@annhutcheson5770]

Nice job! ❤️

[@TheWerewolfofNorway]

[@DRUMMERMIKE]

i think its awesome you can play this on almost every instrument

[@AidenShurikenHeckman]

Brilliant my good sir!

[@AlbertoRossiDrums]

Amazing Ewan 👍😉

[@kevinbick1234]

Fantastic, performance Ewan if there was 1 thing i could mark you down for would be that cymbal strike at 5 mins 11 secs, that cymbal do-sent do it for me :( towards the end you hit it and its not too bad :)

[@chimkenugget]

Loved it. 😍

[@Sullian_dF]

Hey Ewan, I do some drums, I love Pink Floyd and I find your covers awesome! Keep it up! But I have a question about your toms. I noticed your toms (and most of the toms I hear on other channels) make a really nice, "round" sound, with very little echo, while as for me, I have a pretty strong and annoying echo. Do you know why is it so? I guess it's because of the room I'm playing in, or because of my shitty low-end toms, or because you use drum mics, but I'm not sure at all.

[@IntelligentHorseworldofrandom]

This guy kinda looks like Owen Shroyer! Great drumming! :D

[@therevenants]

Beautiful👍🥁

[@brandonquod4910]

Can you tell me what mics you are using? Looked like an sm57 on the snare but i dont know about the tom mics and i was curious if you were using a room mic as well, thanks!

[@ewancunningham]

Tom mics are sure PG58'S, kick is a Sure PG52 and the two overheads I use are usually Rode M3's
