Every time i see this drumer.It's like.God wants too take me on another level of worship.Thank.God.That is who you are.Way maker.

[@odiejackson4690]

In no offense to this guy, I have a drummer who does that to me. Her name is emilee HudsBeth and she plays for POA worship. Ken sharp is really good but I prefer his fast stuff

[@dman7825]

Outstanding!! Great stick recovery at 4:46!!

[@josiahkierstead1499]

Bro didn’t miss a beat… like his fill was still a perfect fill… I’d love to hear what that fill was gonna be had the stick not broken

[@mjmason75]

I've been playing bass professionally for 30 years, and this guy is an absolute monster on the drums!! And in a full suit... even buttoned jaket!? Plus, when you play like that, you can make any drum face you want. LOL. The whole band is amazing really, and this is a great tune... but man, this drummer!! :-)

[@GerardoMartinez-cj8pq]

Man dont say Monster.

[@blackleg6243]

It's not the drum nor the the strings of the bass and guitar. Even the worship leader and back ups. It's the HOLY SPIRIT working! Even when I can't see it, You're working! Even when I can't feel it, You're working! Remember guys, we stand up at the stage not for applause or recognition. We stand there because we lead the people in worshiping and glorifying God! This is an amazing worship! You can feel it even though you're just watching!

Amen! Glory to God❤️

That 7:25 moment where guitarist comes in...chills

[@Tamashi22]

My God you just drummed with all of your Soul, this is the kind of worship God is looking for in this season. Blessings upon you and all Glory to God.

[@Johnbobon]

3:22 7:40 8:35 ☝️ This is nifty stuff. And I LOVE the snare and cymbals on this kit. Whole thing is on point.

[@philipnadera991]

Definitely one of the best drum covers in worship. Deserves more views. My body is chilling when watching this video. Great job to you and to your great band. Keep using your glorious talents for Him. God bless to yoi and your ministry.

[@SethyTan]

I have searched high and low on youtube and this is the best version of Waymaker, hands down.

[@Dannys.channel]

At 6:20 seconds. I adopted that build for every worship song pretty much lol. And it doesn’t get old. The worship team asks for it with their sign language when we are in the middle of the service and I use it on the cymbals and at 7:20 the cymbal build too progressing to the snare. It’s such a powerful statement. I can’t do the Tom triplet fill because by then I’m exhausted but it’s good watching people who serve from the heart because they do things that others can’t. When people show off they aren’t playing fast for worship they play fast so people can hear it but when you see drummers and musicians like Mike here you absorb it because you can hear the song in his heart

[@KidBlueRB27]

This need more views!! Literally one of the best KZbin drum covers/worship performance I've ever seen. This is how a worship song should be played. PURE PASSION!!!

[@Donkeykongbeardsley]

Wow! Thank you so much!

[@DrummerforGod97]

I couldn't agree any more!!

[@lzdrummer30]

Amen to that 100%. God bless my brother and continue to worship.

[@staykappn-9907]

No pun intended

[@nellskieduradons1698]

Agreed 👍

[@FortyEightFiftySix]

This has got to be the rowdiest version of this song and I love it. Your chops and well placed accents are so great. But most importantly you are so anointed and I love how your love of God shines through with how passionate you play. It took me a week to get through the whole video cause I kept rewinding lol stay humble and live by the Spirit ✌🏻

[@faithlleva8435]

Man, I wish you could put this up on Spotify. It would have been a blessing to hear a powerful and anointed song like this there! Continue to play for the Lord! Amen!

[@davidabrahamdonato4889]

And the spirit of God move in that place! You inspire us bro keep killin it for God! 👌🏻

[@Donkeykongbeardsley]

David Abraham Donato thanks a bunch! God was definitely there!

[@dnizzle80]

Best lick of the whole song at 3:25... so clean and perfectly executed!! God bless!!

[@yosiabk2800]

It's been two years since the first time I heard you play, but even now I can still feel the energy, the heart and the passion that burns for Jesus. HIS PRESENCE is everything. Thanks Michael!

[@Bigfan0516]

[@TheGU1T4RFR3AK]

[@geoffbeyer1873]

That fill at 7:48 is off the charts! I'm not a christian by any means, but you can feel them feeling the music. That's what music is all about.

[@aasirabiezera]

holy spirit annointing hit him at 7:45 dat some roll man...

[@frankkortez3569]

randomdrummer x that guitar lock/solo prior to the drum roll was a bit more impressive for me. But both takes were great!

[@mrh6414]

Jamming for Jesus never be ashamed of worshiping him with your all.

[@DruMatthias]

I've played kit for a couple + decades but 2~ mins in til about 9 mins deep his beats are just about out of reach cuz it's so expertly played and sauced up!! Totally Increds version of this amazing track! Flooring, yet inspiring. So 🔒ed in and yet "loose" where needed. To God be the glory but thanks for sharing that talent with the rest of us, Mike!

[@AdoradorMichaelTapia97]

Way maker, miracle worker, promise keeper, light in the darkness, my God that is who you are!!!! Wow praise God!!! I came across this video early this morning and I have watched it like 5 times already I never get tired of watching it!!!!!!!!!! Amazing drumming for the glory of God! This mix sounds amazing! Every time I hear it I feel the presence of God. You did amazing brother God bless you tremendously man! To God be all the glory!

Awesome. What an anointing. God Bless.

[@_dwSen5]

This is all the holy spirit playing with him, worshiping in all his skills. not overplayed but all sweet sounding to our God who is smiling while you play! God bless you! I miss playing like this in my church when all of the band members just closes our eyes but we are still in sync with every beat and every strum every key is all music and just an offering to our God who is happy seeing his children praising him

[@lolmyb]

Smacking 🔥 your fills/accent choices man are killer ! 🤙🏾

Me encanta esa música y también tocas la batería, se ve que estás viviendo lo que estás tocando, may God bless you brother, sigue adelante, good job 😉😉😊👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

This was fresh dude. Love the skill and worship. Been playing for awhile about 15 years not and its rare to see passion played along with talent in the Spirit thank you for your gifting and using it for God. Dont stop.

[@AntwonAlcantar]

Finally a worship drummer I can relate to!!!! I always get talked down on because of my drumming style, I’m a hard hitter especially when it comes to me being connected to the Holy Spirit! God bless you brother, you’re an amazing drummer and this definitely it me! You can feel that your worshipping here! It’s amazing!!!!

[@rosanvrz1]

I think that happens in many churches. My husband is an amazing drummer. And when he is so connected to God during the praise and worship he plays hard. That's his communication with God. But he has been criticized for it but I tell you play how the holy spirit tells you to play and never change it for anyone. So keep going. If you have that anointing keep going and play for God he gave you that gift. It is also your weapon for warfare. God bless....
