[@geoffbaumbach]

I love playing to this song and wanted to see someone else's approach to some of the parts. Dude, you crushed the hell out of this song.

[@sidneyjosephmusic]

Thanks Geoff appreciate the kind words! 🙌🏼

[@luisenriquerivarolamedina567]

Amazing perfomance, my 15 years old son loves this video, he listens this cover very often and I became big fan too.

[@sidneyjosephmusic]

[@victorg.vicente8992]

Watched this video back when i was 17 and decided to take drum lessons because of the amazing sound of your skills. Now i’m turning 24 on october with a Yamaha Certification on Drums “advanced” level and still loving the song and cover

[@sidneyjosephmusic]

Wow Victor that is amazing! Seriously well done!👏🏼🙌🏼💪🏼 Also this makes me so stoked because that is what it’s about, inspiring others - I can’t wait to see and hear you play man!

[@azaeraltair6109]

This will always be my Favorite drum cover😎

[@sidneyjosephmusic]

Wow that’s amazing so glad you enjoy it! 🙌🏼❤️

[@apexdragon4784]

I just recently learned the intro and since i dont have two hi hats im trying to use my left hand and its hard since im right handed. You make this look so easy!😂 And the fill at 2:49 is insane! I tried to do it but like damn its hard. Keep drumming on brother!👍

[@sidneyjosephmusic]

Ah man thank you that’s kind 🙌🏼 That fill is basically RLK / LRK alternating around the kit. Hope that helps in some way! You can use the slow down function too I do it all the time lol

[@Weightsss]

This makes me miss playing drums! I played this song in my own cover. I don’t upload any songs or anything. But this was a fun song to play. I could play the run at the end forever. Great cover broski. Your roles fit perfectly.

[@sidneyjosephmusic]

Hey thank you man! And that’s dope that you play too bro, this is a fun one for sure 👌🏼

[@RENEHIKOGAMES]

I love this song so much, and the drums are awesome. Your drum cover ROCKS man!

[@sidneyjosephmusic]

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it 🙌🏼

[@hdcabs]

This is one of my favourite videos on all of KZbin by far, you are some of the reason i started drumming in the last 6 months. Out of your videos, I love your Wide Awake cover, Shake it off and, of course, the DRUMLESS DRUM SOLO! I also really like your Jack Garratt, but sadly you have taken it down. You are a massive inspiration to me and look forward to watching these videos over and over again when I'm bored or something. Thanks

[@sidneyjosephmusic]

Hey Harry! Wow bro I am so stoked to hear that, and so glad that you are inspired!! Please let me know how your drumming is going, and hope to see some of your drum covers up soon :-) I will be releasing some original material soon and hopefully setting up an online teaching space as well. All the best man and stay inspired! Sid

[@mymom9741]

I'm 22 and in my mind I said "I want to do that!" I wish I could drum. Watching you gave me a natural high. Well played brother

[@sidneyjosephmusic]

Glad to hear it and thank you! Also - you should go for it! 👏🏼🥁

[@christian_spies]

beatboxdrums Certainly! Is it the performance maple snare?

[@sidneyjosephmusic]

Christian Spies it's actually a DW collector's metal snare - i think it's black nickel over brass. It's a killer snare, best one I own by far!

[@sidneyjosephmusic]

That’s awesome, great job! 👏🏼🙌🏼💪🏼

[@angusupton5646]

Firstly Well done. That was extremely entertaining to watch, how did you learn to play the song, do you just listen to it and do your best to replicate it? Or do you have some sheet music on a website? Because I would just love to play this song. Cheers

[@sidneyjosephmusic]

Angus Upton Hey Angus - thank you man, I'm glad you enjoyed it! So I really enjoy this song on its own first of all - but then learned it in three steps - 1. by listening to it a bunch first, then 2. jamming along with the grooves, and then finally 3. trying out my own ideas. Hope that makes sense and helps man!

[@angusupton5646]

sidney joseph yeah cheers for the help man

[@velocityvader7405]

My bands performing this song, your cover looks super fun, I hope I can replicate it to a similar level

[@jark7688]

Love this bro, we play the same way, I sometimes switch hands since I still can't get ghost notes on snares with my left hand the only difference is that I don't have a kit lol hahahahhaha, I can only play on our school. Keep up the badass work bro!

[@sidneyjosephmusic]

Awesome bro yeah! Thank you - you keep it up too! Hope you get a kit of your own soon 👌🏼🙌🏼

I don't think the original has this much drums. When Chris ledoux redid it he added more drums to fit his style. Then rescal flats did the same thing. Awsome job
