Thanks for being here!
Wow, was I actually the first like on a Cobus post?? :-O Happy 2021 ya'll!
@@skwirls congratulations 😎
Great cover! Such a fun song!
Hey brother we luvd it
Love it❤
cobus is one of those few drummers who can overplay without being annoying
Nah fam hes really annoying
@@javier321ewqasd agreed
Javier Alm nah it’s pretty annoying
Haters gonna hate lmao
Ehem cooper
Been years since I surfed youtube for drum covers. Had no idea that my favorite drummer from high school was still making videos. This Cobus looks way different from the one I remember, but those insane fills can't lie. Thanks for many years of great content!
Drummers are just built different. Massive respect for your talent!
at 2:41 the magic begins. Watch from there to the end and you can see how Cobus makes a quite simple song beautifully technical and more fun. I'm in heaven
Right!?! I have to know if that splash hit was on purpose at 3:27 😂
Moel ! Thank god the original version didn't have that lmao
yeah good shit. but doesn’t really work from a recording/song crafting standpoint. doing unnecessary drum fills on a part of a song that’s focusing on the vocal harmonies and quietness doesn’t make sense and only adds something that might distract the listener from the true focus. 🤷🏻♂️but then again i’m just a bass player..
Are you a fan or cobus second account
Is cobus making a chops?
I put down the drums several years ago after I had to move into the city after playing everyday for a decade. Cobus was one of my biggest inspirations. Very clean. He has always improvised in light of the song instead of just mindlessly improvising for his own sake.
This is just classic Cobus right here. So killer!
Thanks, Nathan!
Classic obnoxious overplayed , yeah you're right. Fucking loser
@@yannickb6332 wow..why so much hate?were you abused as a child?
@@martinmartin8666 I'm sure your dad still touches you though, how's the basement you typed this in ? Loser gtfo
@@yannickb6332 haha..lmao..is that the best you can do?try harder bud..middle schoolers have better insults than that..yes he does and fyi its not a basement.its more like a dungeon or a cell.lmao
There is one thing that makes cobus special.. he cover a song that doesn't focus on the drum and cobus put his magic into that songs.. thats what make it realy special..
Btw, 90% of his cover are my fav songs. Thanks cobus. U r my hero
Dude, im a drummer at our church and a drummer as well on festivals. But I cant stope watching this video. Same with the "Take a Look around'" vid. THis is really hard work and a fruit of labor of how you have started way way back years ago. Keep up! Keep inspiring many people!
Literally, cobus was the reason why i got into drumming.. I was just watching all this videos back then and that's when i knew how to drums. I didn't get any lessons how, i just watched his videos and i learned a thing or two.. Cobus is my hero..
The pop of that snare is unreal 😍😍😍
LOVE that you put your own feel on the song but left the fill, after the bridge, the same. Cobus is a god
Dude you have been at this forever and have only gotten better. Straight up session musician, pro-level, better than the artists quality at this point. Very cool to see.
I have been waiting for you to do a cover of this song for 8 years. I imagine you playing this particular piece. I started watching your videos when I was 16 and now that I’m turning 24 this November. This is all I ever wanted. I love you. I can die happy now.
For me, this is the best drum cover i've ever seen for this song. Awesome one! 😊☺️
This has to be one of the funnest drummers to watch I've ever seen. Not only is he good at what he does, but he has so much energy, happiness, and excitement when playing. I just found this channel and I can already tell you you I am going to be part of this community. Great work...live long and prosper my friend.
Ahh, brings me back to the good ol' days.
I got hella nostalgia watching this one bro
cobus, from watching you 6 years ago sparking the music inside me. went from drums to rap, but i’m still doing it and it all came from you. thank you my friend
Cobus I love all your covers , huge fan from a while !
That's the take!! Emotion, control, and precise excellence!!
It got me emotional.
@3:30 when you know thats the final take :) Great Stuff Cobus.
That feeling hahaha "so good to be done"
_oh my god it's over, it's finally over_
My favorate Drummer in UA-cam☝️☺️
Just got the notification. It's 3 am in India but I prefer you over my sleep.
Love from India ❤❤
Man! What a work-out! You really worked up a sweat. Like the old saying goes, "If you don't sweat when you finish, you're not doing it right."
Love your set up & kit. You got everything needed to add those impressive flourishes. Sure, it's a FOB cover, but you own it b/c it's your style...It's unique. Just amazing!
I absolutely love the way you play. Seems so effortless and looks like you're having so much fun doing it as well. Good job!!
Cobus is like an advertisement for splash cymbals I swear everytime I wanna get some splashes set up again! Unreal groves as ever
I liked how you spin both cymbals and hit the splash at 3:27
Nightshard no way he did that on purpose
He so did!
Interesting, I very much didn't like that.
@rvact right?! I have to know if that was on purpose lol
I mean he made the choice to upload it like this, so he knows it's in there. I can't see how it wouldn't be on purpose.
This guy is as good as any human that has ever played drums in the history of mankind!!
THIS IS MY NEW FAVORITE COVER YOUVE DONE! Ive loved this song ever since i was a kid an now one of my favorite drummers does a cover. FREAKIN SICK BRO !
Linear Patterns can be technical and fit in a groove? Whaaaaaaat?!?!?! Ridiculous and you can tell you are having so much fun the whole time.
Your covers make me love the songs 10x more it’s amazing
I very rarely comment on anything, but you are comment worthy my good Sir. Well played! Because of your videos, I have a new admiration for all the drummers out there!
So sick, so clean, so technical, and so inspirational! Well done sir! (love how you play EVERYTHING!)
One of the best examples of Cobus improvising as he plays. There are a handful of instances where I can tell he's thinking, "hmmm what can I do here?" And that smile when he nails it, love it.
Some weird censorship on the word "friction", but some fantastic drumming to make up for it (as expected).
yeah that was strange. all the vocals sound a little off from the one I remember, as if it's a demo or something. maybe just the way the vocals were isolated when mixing in the drums?
"Sugar, We're Goin Down (Guitars Down Version)" it says in the "music in this video section", so that's probably why it sounds a little weird :O
No joke, for the past 13 years I've thought he sang "be the freak sh*t in your jeans" so I was like, sure, I'll censor this just to be safe (for the kids, you know). Now I find out he actually sings "friction". I'm laughing out loud. Also now I'm terrified of how many other lyrics I'm entirely oblivious to.
its fall out boy anyway..misheard on every song XD
Cobus That's a perfectly innocent story! Thanks for putting the kids first :)
His talent and impeccable ability to translate into his own style are always jaw dropping. Awesome cover Cobus! A fantastic drummer always.
0:12 look at that smile. do what make you happy man.
The cymbal work is unreal with this guy.
0:43 good cover up and save, though. Smooth. Masterclass.
What are you referring to?...
@@MaddestMousse The stick catching underneath the hi-hat.
Ahhhhhhououoouuu okay haha I see it now after about 1524131616154 replays of that part.
Good catch lol a good save indeed seeing as I took me forever to even notice it, wouldn't have noticed it unless you pointed it out. Closest this guy will ever come to a mistake haha.
@@MaddestMousse Indeed. Guy's got some serious skills.
Your creativity and skill is out of this world, the best drum cover bro out there!!!!!!
Haven't heard this song in ages. Great memories. Nice work brother!
Why do I love Cobus more than most who do covers? ORIGINIALITY - it's not a real cover if nothing changes! Here's a chair and a pen, have a seat and take notes muggles!
I think ive watched this about 7 times already 😍
It feels like I started watching Cobus videos over a decade ago(which I know it probably hasn't been that long) and you never fail to amaze me!
@3:25 not totally sure if that was an intentional splash hit or not but it was perfect.
Still mind blown after your very first video. Easily the greatest drummer. Unbelievable.
I am particularly fond of the cymbal twists myself. But dang dude, I love your style and skills!
#skillsthatkill
That splash on the cymbal spin at the end was SICK
Where do you find tracks without the drums? It’s great only hearing YOUR chops through the mix. Alternate fills can usually be heard through the mix, but you eliminate that. Good shit
And i thought that the best drummers have more then 1 mil subs, man im an idiot, keep up the great work, thats the best that ive seen ever
I'VE WANTED THIS FOR SO LONG! YES COBUS! DOBE AF! THANK YOU!
CONGRATS ON 800k!! It’s a special accomplishment from us to you. We all thank you for your hard work and talent to create such beautiful content. Thank you so much!
Woahhh! , im getting fired up! 🤘
Been watching your videos for years Cobus, sick to see you go back to one of the first songs I learned on the drums! Great job as always man
I've been waiting for this cover since you were Deedlebag
Watching you play legitimately makes me smile man. I’m glad you’re still making videos after all this time.
Please do more covers like these!! 🔥🔥🔥
You look so carefree and happy when you’re playing. That’s where I want to be!
is friction a bad word? o.o hahahaha
BADASS drumming as per usual.
"Wishing to be the friction in your jeans" is kinda raunchy, I guess.
yeah i thought that was rediculous.
Thought the same thing, never heard that before.
i always thought the lyric was "freak shit" but i guess i was wrong lol
@@nebing7708 actually thats the main reason why it was censored. cobus misheard the lyrics and censored it for the sake of the kids *ehem ehem youtube demonitization for swear words*
This song brings back old memories..incredible playing cobus!
How did you get a drumless track?
99.9% of the tracks I use for my covers are just the normal studio tracks (not drumless) but with this song I was able to find a drumless track online, my guess is that it's because the song was featured in Rock Band. Just Google it, shouldn't be hard to find!
Hi cobus.. Ive been wtching your drum covers since i was 19.. Now im 25.. Your vids inspires me to practice more.. Greetings from philippines..
0:42 I saw that 😂😂😂😂😂
Same man!!!😂he makes up for it tho!!
Probly best sounding snare ive ever heard in my life .
Damn son, another nail in the coffin. Lol. When you record, are you playing the track in your IEM, or are you listening to a solo click, or maybe you listen to a podcast and just know what you’re playing and the right tempo. Hahaha!!
Probably click or click with backing track
Hoesan Al Rachid I figure it’s both, just crazy how on point he is with the additional fills with a backing track in his ear if there wasn’t a click. Lol.
i bet you 50 likes its the latter
Cobus....the drumming for this song was so full. I don't see how you managed to make a cover of it. Must have been outstandingly challenging to find spots to embellish or add
wow, you abuse your hi hat in the BEST way possible!
Merry Christmas guys!! Let's rock here! Cobus still the best drummer in 2024!
"We're going TACO!"
That accidental hit on the splash at the end was perfect 🙌🏻
2025 anyone?
Still here
That drum sound is to die for.
Helo, gois, this is cobes. Fenks for watchin.
Been following u for so long. U had long hair and glasses back then...great then..greater now. Brilliant and passionate drummer. Keep it up.
Should be arrested for murdering that song.
Graeme Brown Wow thats alot of anger for a simple comment. Does it upset you that you actually like the comment but just cant admit it?
It's a comment aimed at trolls who feel the need to comment negatively on something when all they could do is just not watch it. Also, not angry person.
But you know, you can just sit behind your keyboard and lambast someone for doing something without showing face. your call
Graeme Brown Ok let me clear this up
“Murdering that song” aka “Killed it” aka “one of the best covers of this song that I’ve heard”. My comment was not negative.
Where I'm from "murdering something" is a negative...
am i the only one who’s always just in awe of how pristine his drumheads always look? like how often does he swap them?
Anything you play just turns into absolute masterpiece ugh
Cobus what an awesome drum cover and the awesome video was posted 3 days before my 18th birthday so it was like an early birthday present and i loved it. thank you
I much rather prefer listening to Cobus's covers than the original songs. I've made it one of my benchmarks to reach.
This guy is insanely creative! With talent to match.
My favorite drummer since I saw all covers😇
The intro alone!! Heck yes Cobus!!!
This kind of genre make Cobus a stunning drummer
loved the intro! that little detail says a lot!
Very High quality sounds not like others in UA-cam and the drum set this is perfect
Bro I grow up to drumming like u I have your style but your my god. I no where as clean but I do all the same accents and double peddle and riffs and off beats I just wish I was as clean and as smooth with the hihat as u. Your my hero!!! I wish I would see this comment. To reply would change my life!!!
That was a joy to watch. Technically brilliant and a showman too. Thank you for sharing your talent.
That tom tone is killer! Love it.
I don't know why I always love cobus videos since 2009 till now. just amazing, and I like the person, coz I have met him in person ❤️
Now, this is what I'm talking about!
That man is having an absolute ball playing the song.
Probably One of your best mixes yet. That snare screams man! It all sounds so natural and not over processed. All room mic haha. Killer cover man.
YES!!!!! A nice solid cover like the old days!
Awesome!!! This is a very underrated song. Cobus you were having fun with this one.
Killed it! That was right af. Such a fun song to play
I loved watching this guy over the years tweak up his style, at first I noticed he loved snare rolls and cool shit with fills in the snare, now we see him loving the cymbal mutes in fills which is badass and I’m going to copy it sorry Cobus!!
Never gets old Cobus!
That snare is really satisfying !!
even keeping it family friendly! Love your work Cobus, thanks for taking it old school
Started watching cobus when I was in college. Years have passed and I am now a lawyer, but... Was cobus always this hot???? 😍
