TRE- TV REACTS TO - Chad Smith Hears Thirty Seconds To Mars For The First Time

[@kdailey4315]

This is what happens when you're one of the greatest pocket drummers ever. Incredible and fire reaction.

[@tiffymcconkey]

Fun Fact: Chad is the only drummer that's been on drumeo that did Not listen to the entire song before playing it. Everyone else listened through the songs 2-3 times took notes ect before they tried to play

[@reithe1st]

Funner Fact: Jonathan Moffet did it 1st with Linkin Park. That's another great vid. 😃

[@n0follow]

@@reithe1st facts!! Sugarfoot is a legend, no wonder MJ beats were crazy good

[@Its75centslurpee]

This kind of thing is in Chad's wheelhouse. I remember going to a show years ago, and they opened by just having a mini jam session before breaking into their planned set list. It's just wild how talented he is.

[@karenward267]

The first time I saw this clip, I was bowled over by his talent to listen to a small amount of the song and he was able to just jump in and sound so close to the original. Thank you for uploading this with your reaction.

[@egnahcwen]

Don’t believe non of that never heard it before bull shit😂

[@mattb1974]

Listened to one verse, and one line of the hook...then went crazy. I've seen other drummers on this series, they have all listened to the song at least once through. So cool

[@Generic_Tech_Support]

I totally agree, Chad Smith is a true MASTER of his craft. It's truly a gift to see a master performing his craft at the very top!

[@akaSHOOT2MUCH]

he didnt even need a listen thru, he just rolled with it on the first take. its absolutely mind blowing coming from a music background. he's a lead instrument, playing from cues and instrumental tone and volume its absolutely insane.

[@haililani]

I’ve watched a bunch of reaction videos and I really love seeing a jazz musician weigh in. Some of the other content creators said Chad is capping saying he doesn’t know the song but I think true jazz musicians understand improvisation and how you CAN do it but you must LISTEN ❤

[@JTidiotboy]

Dude that drives me crazy. Like, I get why someone might think he already knew the song but he really is just that good. The Red Hot Chili Peppers have one of the best rhythm sections in rock music history. You don't play in a band with Flea for over 30 years without learning how to improvise.

[@Amandadear0812]

@@JTidiotboy 💥 facts. Flea has to be one of the hardest musicians to follow. Even John Freshiante just said in an interview “I feel like every song is a bass solo and I’m just filling gaps”. And he’s a frigging legend on lead.

[@UnXplainable1]

@@JTidiotboyAbsolutely agree. The other thing is that Chad’s take being similar to the original tells me Shannon gave the song exactly what it needed when he wrote the original part. It’s what you’re always trying to do as a drummer, so for someone like Chad to improvise something that’s so close to the original is a massive endorsement of Shannon’s writing to me.

[@monicanero2946]

Chad is definitely one of da GOATS wen it comes to dem drums

[@barieconway9631]

My daughter is learning drums and was obsessed with this one.

[@tretvfrmdabx2544]

Good luck to her

[@UnXplainable1]

Drumeo’s series of drummers doing this is so worth watching all of. Larnell Lewis takes on “Enter Sandman,” the drummer from Megadeth put together a super cool version of “Mr. Brightside.” There are a bunch of these on the channel that will leave your jaw on the floor. Chad’s the only one so far, though, that didn’t give the song at least one listen before jumping in. He set the bar high.

[@marquisdelafayette1929]

Second this. Larnell just listening and describing the motions in the beginning is even more impressive than playing. At first you can tell he’s definitely out of his element but after a minute he gets into it and just starts jamming. Plus, dude is so humble.

[@UnXplainable1]

@@marquisdelafayette1929 you just described my favorite part of that one. When he settles into it somewhere between the second verse and chorus, you can see it in his face and then his body loosens up. And when that dude is into it, whatever the song is, look the hell out. He’s truly one of the greats.

[@user-oz3md4jg5d]

I think Sugarfoot did a Linkin Park song in one go as well.

[@mm0901]

Loved this guys. Great reaction. I’ve seen the original video more times than I can count and get chills every time 🙌🏻

[@kevinmcquade1688]

You guys are a rare breed. Actually have the acoustic wall lined up and not all shitty like so many other channels. Drives me nuts lol

[@tretvfrmdabx2544]

Thx appreciate it

[@ToMPaSHKoV]

What normally happens is that the guest drummer listens to the song through once, makes notes, time signature, structure etc. Then he takes a pass at laying down the drums how he sees fit. Chad listened to 32 seconds of a drum-less track he never heard before and put down what I think is a superior drum line, no offense intended to Shannon, who is a sick drummer in his own right. I bet Shannon incorporates a few of the fills Chad came up with next time he plays the song.

[@Kim-hc5si]

Came here to explain this, too. It’s INCREDIBLE. 🔥

[@TheDeadStretch]

My first thought too. Shannon gunna use some of those sick fills. haha

[@iiitzHimmy]

I love how you can see Chad catch the change of tempo and change up on the fly. It’s crazy to see how quickly he processes the music

[@charleshein5991]

Jared and Shannon both reacted to this and were vibing with this so 50 I mean 30 seconds to Mars approved

[@JenPope79]

This is one of the best reactions I have seen to this! Loved y’all reaction and commentary to this! Chad killed this ❤

[@tretvfrmdabx2544]

❤️

[@jcssmallenginerepair3261]

This shit was epic and I'm so glad y'all liked it! It's awesome to see new reactors react to stuff that us viewers love. Your reactions are priceless! Keep it up dawg

[@Amandadear0812]

Agreed. Their faces and reactions were priceless! Enjoyed it very much.

[@HanksWVaRC4388]

I've listened to the original video more than 100 times....I never get tired of it

[@TheDeadStretch]

I always say while Chad was amazing here we have to give credit to the original song. The drumless version just leaves the perfect bed for a drummer like Chad.

[@td6460]

After about 30 seconds of 30 Seconds to Mars, Chad immediately picks up the vibe and feel of this track and jumps in on it with absolute authoritative confidence. What I mean is, it's as if he wrote the damn song. Once he starts, he just full sends it. No retreat, no steps back, no hesitation even in the slightest. He perfectly anticipates the whole flow of the song from I suppose the bass line swell and it's amazing. What a maestro of his craft. Guess 40 years of doing something does that to you. It's truly one of the most incredible things anyone can witness in music, this man is so underrated.

[@LindseyDay-q1q]

I was obsessed with this. Old school musicians r the best because back then they helped create the music so adapting isn't necessarily new. Back then you had raw natural talent. I loved watching this.

[@huitrecouture]

Thank you for doing fun and interesting content! He's the drummer on Duo Lipa Break My Heart there's a video of him playing it on Drumeo. He just ran into them in the studio when they were writing the song and now theres 1Billion views.

[@joshualemelle8626]

The fact that he never heard this and played it almost exactly like the original is insane

[@tretvfrmdabx2544]

💯💯💯

[@weskoas]

He didn't drop the stick he broke it which is even more impressive

[@lrcustomsinc3131]

Well done guys... favorite reaction to this so far.. let those emotions fly! Good stuff

[@jmelvin28]

It reminds me of the vocal cadences in hip hop. The vocals are a separate percussion instrument that add to the mood of the piece. In rock the drums drive the rhythm and set the pace for the guitar and vocals which are usually the melody. A good example of that is any Eminem track. He uses his cadences to add to the beat and drive the rhythm. Amazing.

[@jeanbapptiz]

"He got space, Where there is NO space" !!!!! 😂

[@richmorlang1854]

Chad is such a legend. Ive been a fan of the chili peppers since i was a kid in the 80s. He is part of that reason

[@thiagoportella9703]

You need to check the drummer El Estepario Siberiano covering Blinding Lights, by The Weeknd. One of the best drummers to ever do it!

[@joefilipelli3867]

His response when they suggested he takes flea with him is very telling... it's one of those if you know, you know kind of things

[@JabezGill]

And if you don’t know, you’re me.

[@MrDarkcook]

@@JabezGill I don't think Flea is into this... "emo kind of thing" (no offense, I love these pop songs too, just like I love all the sweet ballads from the Chili Peppers).

[@MinorEffect2012]

Great feedback and reactions guys!

[@vegasviking86]

Mfer jumped in like it was hopscotch lol

[@ramkraken8242]

Flow is the flow of the flow, love his take. Detroit rock city in the house

[@1skyofrog]

Check out The Police at the Whiskey a Go Go. They open with Message in a Bottle. Stewart absolutely kills it on the drums.

[@liamengram6326]

Session work pays off.

[@j1974f]

Great reaction fellas!

[@tretvfrmdabx2544]

Appreciate it!!

[@lewishogan1699]

He is Chad of the RHCP he has the ability to listen to a song/part of and identify the time signature of the song unlike some like Dirk who listened to Mr bright side the whole way through before still playing it “wrong” he half timed the first half and then “Double timed” the main bit

[@RobinTig]

Fun reaction, glad you guys jammed to it

[@PatrickWright-vm8vv]

I love the drum freestyle! This shit dope asf!

[@STR82DVD]

Fantastic reaction lads. Mine was about the same. Chad's the man.

[@tretvfrmdabx2544]

Legend!

Nah... needs more cowbell. Just kidding, The Chad (and Will Ferrell) rules.

Y'all got a new sub from me. I've watched several of these reactions to this and it's clear y'all know music.greay react boys 🔥

[@theoradestra7060]

7:09 broke a drum stick - You are the only 2 who spotted this!!!

[@_WeDontKnow_]

im way late but there's a really cold detail here lol. when he "dropped" the stick and pulled out another, the stick actually broke in half. happens pretty often so they always have extras

[@CyclingAddiction]

Enjoyed the reaction!

Great reaction guys. Even better hat. Go Cowboys!!

[@deakanclarke3076]

Chad is a master!🙏

[@buddgaf1304]

This is a really weird observation and I know this isn't what your channel is about but 6:50 in this vid is so heartwarming to me because social media has fueled this recent rise in racial tension in the world and moments like this do the opposite. Unity through happiness, appreciation, celebration.

He’s a beast! Dayum.

You should check out when he had a drum off with Will Ferrell on Jimmy Fallon.

[@bababaloona]

Pretty sure nick cannon has more kids than chad has cymbals on his kit

[@tretvfrmdabx2544]

😂😂

[@Amandadear0812]

That’s hilarious. Chad has played longer with ONE BAND than Nick Cannons been alive! 😂 . Obviously they just set up the basics and if you knew anything about the RHCP you’d immediately know that’s not his drum set. 🤦‍♀️

[@brianvinson9684]

Nasty AF!!!!😂

[@GunnyRaps]

Every musician should play the drums, at least to the point where you pass the curve... It unlocks a bunch... Like sometimes and stuff lol🤙

[@toddking1983]

Yall should check out Aveon Falster

[@Yup-t6n]

How bout dem boys!!! Haha

y'all seem like a fun group to hang out with! all love champs!

Pls do Daney Carey drum cam ''Pneuma'' by Tool! Most insane drum cam and song.

[@jannobotcher5496]

i tyred drums too. but my legs and arms didnt work together :D

[@jimib81]

What's crazy is somehow the song is better as a capella until his drums come in. It's just random but somehow the song is 100x better for me.

[@joeycornelio3423]

@tretvfrmdabx2544 my guy! Love this reaction try wathing Eloy Casagrande first time hearing Vulpeck very entertaining as well! You'll love it 😁👌🏽
