[@kestrels-in-the-sky]

You know it’s really nice of the big Kevin O’Riely to colab with Kevin O’drums honestly they make the perfect colab

[@CannibalisticChihuahua]

You are a genius

[@Noelleisles]

I pray to every god there is for the two of them to play with Kevin O'Bass

[@AsparagusRex]

@@Noelleisles I'm praying for that too

[@damilinot]

​@@Noelleisleswanted to comment this, but you were first 😂

[@BackyardBio]

Seems like just yesterday Kevin O’Drums couldn’t even play the drums.

[@Loey]

Man this so amazing. Your drumming came so far and it turned out so good! Keep it up Kev

[@OG_Angarato]

Im so proud of this man. As a drummer, to see your 30 day progress is absolutely astounding. Your smile is contagious, and the stick flips are ON POINT

[@martadeptua5707]

damn, Kevin is so talented and hardworking, honestly, it's inspiring! My only wish would be that his songs would be on Spotify too

[@tristanye4691]

[@s.a.pgames590]

Agreed

[@gameflayer7611]

Yea my pods would be banging this one out

[@darkforge15]

Kevin needs to put these covers on Spotify.

[@Goomzios]

I KNOW

[@Xaychedelic]

I remember your first cover with the ukulele 4 years ago. There was nervousness back then when you plunged into trying out instruments while singing, but it was heartfelt and lovely all the same. Seeing you play the guitar now (and now with the drums too?!), you look comfortable-like you're in your element. I'm so proud of you, Kevin!

[@jasongaspe7379]

Reported… for making me so damn emotional with that comment 😭❤️

[@lykiaookami6070]

this! watching Kevin grow into himself is from his early videos to now is amazing

[@Aleigh75]

I really don't think Kevin gets enough recognition for his musical talents. We need more of this! 😊

[@esbirdnerd]

He has an amazing singing voice and uses it for memes

[@clawwavestudio1395]

i thought he was joking on his video before i saw these channel He is a god

[@Tridentofmemes]

​@esbirdnerd His memes are hilarious but his music and voice is good

[@AliceAscher]

no matter how many times i listen to Kevin sing, it always hits so hard with every new song. he's only getting better and better! and he has that singing that gives you shivers in the best way! always a highlight when he sings :D

[@aquamari6770]

Yes! He has such a delightful singing voice that always gives me the good chills! 😍

[@davidfernelz]

You can tell how much Kevin O’drums is having by the smile. it says: "I might be in over my head but I'm proud of what i can do and I'm having a blast" he is definitely vibing, I hope he keeps up with the drums. (PS: as a musician I'm impressed with how far you've been able to get just by messing around and having fun. this is genuinely a great cover)

[@FrostyTerps21]

You can do anything you set your mind to, people like Kevin live by this and it works. My God does it work. So proud of him. Been watching him since I was a kid, one of my only source of laughs and as an adult now finally figuring out what I wanna do. Words don't express how inspiring he is.

[@brandonhimes9791]

I watched your video on you learning how to play right before this and seeing the progress made me so happy!!! It’s honestly inspirational! Keep it up!

[@AkuraTheAwesome]

I love that Kevin is stepping outside of his comfort zone to make music for us. He looks like he's having such a good time, it's contagious.

[@baby_bear]

That feckin smile the whole time on the drums just made my heart warm

[@Bri-Salem]

your Twitch Sings Streams were everything to me in 2020, I would always sing along and forget about everything else. Watching how far you’ve come is amazing 💜

[@1nicejackelfan224]

They gave me so much solace in those lonely times. Whenever I feel anxious now, I listen to Kevin's covers to calm me down

[@Miss_Distress]

They were so good!

[@BebbaDubbs]

@@1nicejackelfan224 literally. His voice is so calming imo. I have hypersensitive hearing and CMK is playing in my earphone 12+ hours a day/night because it blocks out the rest of the world 😂

[@danieldholliday]

Yes!!!! Ugh, I miss his Twitch Sings streams

[@yourheartbreakinapril172]

I love it when singers let their accent come through in their singing, and I honestly think that's why I adore Kevin's singing as much as I do! I remember loving the Twitch Sings streams so it's lovely to see him sharing his singing again!

[@Kozinu]

I miss twitch sings so badly. 😭😫

[@wizardlizard55555]

Another good Irish artist that does that is Hozier :D

[@cadencetheronin756]

This has become my absolute favorite version of this song. I can't stop listening to it

[@kevinbestgirl3838]

i cant express how proud i am of you and how happy i am anytime you do music 😭💖 i tear up every time you sing idk what's wrong with me, you're just such a beautiful soul. im so happy you exist

[@madalynnmccarron4590]

glad i'm not the only one tearing up

[@kassenfox4051]

So real. I love Kevin's singing

[@dabordietrying]

so real. so blessed to be living at the same time as Kevin

[@Felttipfuzzywuzzyflyguy]

Ok I'm not the only one tearing up 😅. You can see the true happiness and love for music he has. It comes right through the screen.

[@RockArtConverseGirl2]

approuved! hes like my dopamine hit Iwould love to have a friend like him Hes so good!

[@mycookiehasnoname]

Listened to this at the emergency after getting 23 stitches; thank you Kevin, thank you for existing. You have no idea how wonderful you really are.

[@johnikamara02]

Wish ya luck

[@kassenfox4051]

1:00 everytime he sings "I love you" it sounds so soft I wanna sob

[@sammykbop6217]

I love that every time it cuts to Kevin O'Drums, he's smiling and just looks like he's having the time of his life. Great addition to the band! ❤

[@familiarstranger9617]

his voice grown more emotive, rich and colorful. love this Kevin, Never stop rolling!

[@cherdiane]

I just heard the original version in the grocery store and it made me want to listen to this far superior version.

[@6strings22]

Any KZbinr that has another passion besides creating content is just the best. Kevin's one of those people. Able to play a couple instruments, and a nice full voice, great job

[@bobeehh7249]

I haven’t heard your voice in forever. I watched you everyday for around a year but several months ago I stopped due to personal circumstances. With everything I have going on, this was a light in the dark. Thank you, Kevin 💜

[@GhostHelwig]

This makes me want your covers on a streaming platform even more. This was so freaking good! Congratulations!! 🎉🎉

[@Bethany-fo6lt]

I second that.

[@DJmixmasterBobby]

Cried. Not sure why, but I sobbed. I love this. been watching since 2017.

[@DJmixmasterBobby]

I just got a job today and my familys happy so things are looking up!

[@kristoferslorencs]

So happy you decided to sing this song! Your voice just fits this so good.

[@pleego20]

Kevin O Drum's goofy smile when drumming makes me want to learn the drums too. This cover is so good!

[@L_e_t_h_e_r_e_a_l]

Been watching you since the “How to annoy people on COD” series was around and it always catches me off guard, that you are musically talented. It’s crazy that I’ve been watching you since I was basically 12-13 and I’m turning 27 this year. Don’t ever go away ❤

[@alexathecoolperson]

i absolutely love Kevin's music covers because you can tell that he's proud of what he's doing and doesn't care if the video does well or not

[@SailorGigi]

I'm a musician who got emotionally sideswiped 10 years ago (basically stopped). I've been diving back into music and I want to say thank you for showing us this side of you as well as your goofy persona on your gaming channel. It means alot!

[@callieope_]

Kevin is really showing his musical abilities today and i am here for it! ❤️❤️

[@CannibalisticChihuahua]

You have an amazing singing voice.

[@limzu_rah]

I have to admit I’ve been listening to your cover on repeat for the last few hours, it’s actually so good

[@kassenfox4051]

Me rn too

[@hunkofmeat3799]

LETTTS GO KEVO. Genuinely though I’ve been a fan for years and seeing you’re progress on music and just on your channel in general is so inspiring

[@HiroKitty]

I love how dedicated Kevin is to his work and hobbies. It's inspiring

[@r.emmettmurphy6090]

Man, Kevin is my model for a success story. I watched as this kid discovered his singing talent doing goofy gaming vids, grow his base, learn multiple instruments, move to Spain, and still he tortures sims in this basement.

[@irishjournalgaming]

I just find out Irish Gaming man has a music channel, and he's genuinely so incredible. I am stunned. Kevin might actually be my favorite singer now. Now I'm gonna be listening to his music and videos non-stop. What is this madness

[@MRM-widez00nim]

i have this madness too, my whole history for the last 5 month is just kevin o'reily

[@carolinestrong6341]

I'm a Media Studies Teacher and we're currently studying 'Riptide' at A-Level. Finally a way to listen to this song without pulling my hair out. Beautiful cover! The drums in particular are very good!

[@realsilverfox88]

A great song, sung by a great guy with a great voice, great guitar and great drums... This legitimately made my day 20 times better! And the HARMONIES??? This is SO GOOD!

[@dancinpenguin3975]

I am constantly rewatching this. This needs more people seeing it. Very underrated.

[@ErmenBlankenberg]

I don't usually like covers of my favourite songs, but Kevin, you and your great singing voice absolutely killed it! Congratulations on the the drumms as well!

[@hobojoegaming19]

This version of the song is my new hyper fixation. Wonder if this stuff will ever appear on spotify 😮 Love the work kev

[@alex_and_er_g]

That fully qualified drummer sounds and looks as great as that guitarist, and the singer too. What a band!

[@szolgabalint5149]

Had a friend, who was a pretty good drummer considering we were teenagers. Sometimes he let me use his set, I sucked at it at first, but he tried to teach me some basics. This bring me back, we're sadly not that close anymore. Thank you Kevin, also, pretty cool progress, keep it up! :)

[@eggchomp]

you should reach out to him!

[@CatDadTheCyborg]

Dear Kevin, When I first heard your voice in 2008 or whenever you hit machinima, I NEVER could have imagined the path you would fall down nor could I ever imagine the joy you would bring to me on a regular basis. I hope you stay for a long time, even if that means cutting down to just one video every year! We love you and this song... This is so good. It's so heartfelt. It's so amazing. I absolutely adore your Kevo channel and you are a regular repeat on my youtube music. Now that I've heard this, I don't think I can ever unhear it. The Vance Joy version quite literally lost all appeal to me.

[@kiraaofthedust8123]

The smile you have when on the drums and generally when performing is precious. It is so nice to see someone in content creation actually look genuinely happy. I'm proud of you Kevin, you've come so far.

[@Arran05]

"Kevin" always knows how to bless our ears

[@glenn4ever999]

I have to say man it feels like its a friend playing this for me because its someone i am more familiar with, it helps really. thank you

[@c4ashley]

So, like, I knew you could sing and play guitar. But hearing those beautiful harmonies suddenly come in on a video where you're also learning drums was a genuinely impressive "wow" moment. This guy is more than just a dude who can casually play some guitar. This is a great musician with a great ear and plenty of skill and talent to be able to realise what you can hear in your musical head.

[@konakoala]

Kevin smiling while playing the drums the whole time is so wholesome he’s actually proud of himself

[@chelliedot]

What a great cover! And a great choice for your first drum-performance. :)

[@A_Pigeon]

I'm proud of you Kevin. You do the things that i could never do, you inspire me to sing in front of people.

[@nanao.9807]

i honestly don't remember if i ever heard this song before but goddamn your soothing voice never fails to make me feel emotional. every cover of yours is golden.

[@KeloMorelo]

I was moved, a beautiful song performed even better, thank you Kevin

[@ashleiamber9653]

Not only the drumming but your vocals have improved so much! amazing work 👏 😊

[@justashadow5653]

I normally really dislike covers but this just heals my heart. It even helps me with my panic attacks. Thanks kevin❤

[@JustSan_112]

Kevin's talent blows my mind every time! This kind of content helps me believe that I can also do anything I set my mind to!

[@SchwiftySpoon]

This song is on my KZbin likes, because I'm a huge Callmekevin fan. My dog passed away recently, I had her ashes in my car and this came on.... tears started rolling. I just started to check out Vance Joy, so I appreciate it Kev!

[@RedApples91]

Extremely happy that we got a version of this cover on this channel! You're so skilled and just getting better with every song :)

[@Darkspeed1706]

I love this song. And hearing you sing it makes it even better

[@Andrew-vi5rk]

This is one of my favorites. Its even better as a cover by you. I love all of your covers. Please more!

[@Rogue1984]

We need these on spotify

[@KingIsMeh]

Something about Kevin's voice is just so nice to me 😊

[@lenk4063]

Every single cover has this country vibe and now I can't listen to anything Kevin sings without thinking his covers are just country music even though some are not. Either way, I like it a lot. Kevin has such a beautiful voice ♡.

[@trixie2558]

A musical genius. The new Napoleon Bonaparte, a master of warfare that changes the shape of Europe forever; the new Antoni Gaudi, with architectural designs to put the world's greatest to shame; and now the new Beethoven, able to flawlessly recreate any song and I'm certain pen more to paper. You truly are a Renaissance man, CallMe, and the Kevin name will be spoke of with pride in a thousand years!

[@formulalemon8665]

First time listening to a kevo cover. Amazing Job. One of the best covers I have ever heard.

[@AnaFromTheShire]

I mean, beginner or no - that beat is tight bro! You don't falter once. We all already adore your voice, and now you're adding sick beats? My hat is off to you, sir.

[@berkaycobanoglu6868]

This is so beautiful! I love your voice! 🥰

[@OfficialYondoth]

This is easily my favourite cover of yours. You sound so confident singing here. I REALLY love your vibrato.

[@sheepyhead0399]

This is genuinely one of my favourite videos on youtube, it's so comforting and chill, thanks for existing man amazing cover

[@draco5991rep]

So cool you managed to learn it that quickly. I think you have a natural affinity to music in general. Keep it up

[@HamburglarsTwin]

this honestly became one of my favourite songs/covers

[@mooglemagic9467]

These covers are always worth the wait. Thank you Kevin 🧡

[@SaraSweets35]

I didn’t know I could be so proud of a person I’ve never met. Your progress is incredible! Keep it up!

[@bishielurfer]

I do love seeing new videos on this channel. The gaming videos are hilarious and I really enjoy them, but the Kevo videos give me this cosy sense of happiness from seeing someone learning and improving on something they enjoy doing. And Kevin's voice has this warmth to it that I really like.

[@sushijams]

I wonder is Kevo helped CallMeKevin learns the drums? Amazing cover! you’re getting better and better with each release

[@Sirtigereg]

So heart felt and perfect, ❤

[@thegrimviolet9497]

Ok, what the hell is this man? First i found an absolute force of chaos messing every game up with no care in the world then i find out he can be quite serious at times, showing off a decent level of skill and now i learn he has musical proficiency. You are by far an incredibly talented, hard working and amazing person. I cannot wait to see what you do next.

[@mr.pickles5927]

Kevin your amazingly talented and I am thankful for everything you do and make and we are all very proud of you thank you for making my life so much better and I’m glad to have you in my life

[@microboyfriend]

Seeing the huge smile on his face while playing drums made my heart grow 10 sizes

[@pkmntrainerlilly5]

This is just so great. It's so meaningful, seeing the process and now seeing the finished product. I just really loved it.

[@FeloniousAngel]

Kevin O'Drums is such an icon already

[@choccy9852]

Always a pleasure to hear a new cover from you! So great to watch your progress. You’re truly so skilled! Love it!! Keep it up!!

[@gunmo5053]

Damn I just discovered this song a few weeks back and bopping on it ever since...and now my favourite youtuber covering it was the cherry on top I did'nt expect lol...very well done Kevin

[@mentalthat1]

I love this man! Singing (and playing) the theme for the new Percy Jackson show in the height of the fandoms bliss is everything. You never fail to make me smile, Kev! You're insanely talented and I love watching you go from fumbling every 2 seconds to succeeding with flying colors. You make me feel like a proud parent. xD

[@JessOrch]

The cutest thing is how much fun he's having

[@Skye-gs7zg]

I adore this song, I'm ecstatic to see you cover it, and I'm so inspired after seeing the journey you went on to learn drums. Im the same age as you, and you really have motivated me. I actually picked up drawing again, after almost a decade of not practicing it, because of your art/painting video. Thank you for your refreshing honesty about the trials and triumphs around learning new skills/hobbies. You're a wildly talented musician and its lovely to see you expanding your knowledge and skill set. All of your videos on this channel have been fire! Kevin covers are such a welcome suprise every time.

[@magnumnx]

he looks so happy, I love it

[@s.a.pgames590]

Perfect cover once again. I love the vibe you bring to everything you do

[@UvThe1st]

Your smile on the drumming parts is so infectious! This is perfection, thank you man 💕

[@rissabuh1349]

you have that kind of voice that brings an immediate smile to the face and is just overall incredibly pleasant to listen to. excited whenever I see a new cover! :)

[@thegamingsniper6468]

Like this more than the original if I am being honest. Listen to this cover all the time now. What a great job Kevin!

[@SnufflySpy]

I hope your proud of the effort you put into these dude, they are simply phenomenal. I love the little twists you put into them, in the way you sing, your voice is great

[@wurfinius1113]

Kevin just vibing. This just proves that the world is what we make it. There's a million and one reasons for us to cry, to be sad, to give up. Brave are the ones who try to smile through it all.

[@dannywhisman2041]

Beautiful 💙

[@dariathelazy]

This seriously sounds so crisp but warm, very pleasant and well-balanced production! And of course, loving the vocals!!! Especially during the 'downtime' portion of the song

[@saskiavanderwesthuizen]

I love this so much , you did amazing Kevo !! :)

[@ibreakmypen2904]

I love kevin, kevin is like a friend, love interesst, enemie, hagrid and my dog in the same time Thx men for this nice song

[@grozdisveta]

Это прекрасно!!!
