Rush - Countdown (Drum Cover)

[@inthedream9127]

Very underrated song, a hidden gem on Signals along with Losing It

[@jimc9403]

An excellent song. Underrated is an understatement

[@inthedream9127]

@@jimc9403 I agree a top ten Rush song

[@ChinchillaDeTucson]

@@jimc9403 he said VERY underrated :)

[@MichaelVLang]

Great playing on this under appreciated tune. Neils orchestration on this one is some of his best.

[@behrendbeck1785]

My favorite song ever!!

[@dkammerman]

Spot on as usual!!!

[@braincrisp1]

Nailed that important cymbal stop at 2:35.

[@ttocs68]

Exactly. I made my comment right after that. did not need to see anymore.

[@smkaraatli]

2:34 Excellence in details just like the Professor

[@lukecasner1052]

Don’t stop man, You are a great drummer who tributes to Neil, rip. great vid.

[@johncollins8980]

Incredible performance sir. The sound was great and cymbal work immense- the late great man would approve.........

[@mbriandunson]

This drum cover is so awesome...probably about 6200 feet per second! Rock on Sterling!

[@commanderstraker6732]

Fantastic! If Geddy and Alex were to ever do a one off gig, you should be the drummer!

[@HesTNTonPMS]

Nobody that I am aware of is playing it straight through like this as perfect as this kid! I'm sorry just the feeling he puts in man , had I not known it would be very difficult I was not listening to Neil, impossible in fact and I have a great ear. Big, Big fan ! I wish you the world my man, you deserve it and you make it look so easy !

[@TheWaylon1964]

DUUUUUUUUUDE, I am very pleased that you took on this song, I don't know if you did this because I said it was my fav or not but if you did THANKS a TON, Its quite chalenging and a LOAD of fun to play, I used to play this song while watching an actual Launch on TV back in the 80s, Always gave me Goosebumps, I sincerely hope it dose the same for you , ROCK ON BUDDY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@youtoo2233]

Been air drumming to Rush for decades lol, now I get to see what he was actually doing on these songs, well done maestro

[@soliscrown1272]

This song brings back many memories.

[@childrensentertainment7667]

Ditto.

[@seanm3636]

...And we enjoyed the video, Sterling. Thank ya!

[@sgtBelson]

Ah, he enjoyed it. He just wanted to share some with us!

[@moxisphere]

Amazing drumming! You’re my go-to for learning these songs. The aerial view is SO helpful! Thank you!

[@luckyjones1358]

Countdown is my absolute fave Rush song. As a young teen in the early 80's this era of Rush connected with me so much as it was hard rock with the elements of nu wave I also loved. Signals is also my fave Rush album. I'm not a drummer but this vid makes me want to dump all my guitar gear and get a big drum set instead. I absolutely love watching you play.

[@FrankTruslow]

Awesome job...underrated song...one of my favorites from Signals.

[@sting64az]

Awesome playing right on target,

[@hsurnag]

Great job! I love it when the bass comes in and Neil picks it up a notch. Love the outro, too... One of my favorite obscure Rush tunes!

[@markblackman2542]

Young & Crippon really moving here. genious writing & gifted drummer make a dreanm seem real feeling blessed :)

[@williammcgall5281]

Great power. Nice to see the love for the deep album cuts.

[@roccopagliari8828]

Love the little double bass fill in the fade-out !!!

[@donwilkinson1986]

That was absolutely 100% spot on man! Awesome job!!!!

[@robertderkach650]

Little off on the 16th notes but still sounds great 👍

[@rosinray592]

YES sterling!!! My fav of signals 🔥🔥

[@benvankoningsveld]

Superb!! There are a lot of Peart covers but not many that actually nail the technicality like this.

[@quicko2112]

Attention to detail spot on, well done chap.

[@mikeshoe74]

Thanks for all these videos. I've watched a bunch today

[@hermanhelmich]

[@lazydog1964]

Great cover, nice and tight on the HI-hat

[@lucasgodfroy4163]

Hey, Sterling, I've been watching for some time, and I was wondering if you could do a tour of your drum set, this drum set and your electronic one. Thanks!

[@lukecasner1052]

Lucas Godfroy great idea

[@Kenny02120]

can someone explain to me why 1:32 is so difficult to learn

[@vikneumann4148]

You have all the marks of a great drummer, precise, yet relaxed.

[@josephbunone6126]

Right on point, I know the song , however I will intricate each groove and note along each break and fill, thx

[@crearte1]

Hey Sterling, love all your Rush covers it is really impressive the hard work you put on learning and recording all these songs; have you ever thought on making a video or video series about the process and hardware you use to record and track your drum set? that would be really awesome. Cheers.

[@vergon6662]

Oh BOY! You've GOT IT! 👍

[@JoeTritschler]

Fantastic job, Sterling!

[@breauxcewayne1971]

WOW MAN AWESOME JOB!!! I’m learning the song and figured most of it out but I hadn’t quite figured out some of the fills. Watched your video and was like How did I not hear that 🤦🏼😂 You definitely nailed it so again man AWESOME JOB and also thank you because you not only helped me figure out those parts but more importantly the time it would of took figuring them out 😂
