This guy is pretty good on drums. Should we hire him?
Yeah 🤘
perfection!
Nah, he use the swivel technique :D
You should hire Junna
Not bad but you should try to hire Nyango Star for the drums.
Hell Yeah🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
I love how relaxed he looks. He looks like he's having fun, not like he's straining. Lovely technique, great posture. Masterful.
Exactly my thoughts. He is fluid on the drum
I see the same thing too
he's been playing it ten years straight. why wonder?
Incredible sound and drumming holy smokes that was a real treat!!
Compared to Junna's cover, he's super chill! lol
Never misses a note, never plays out of sync, this man is a machine
Yes Amazing drumer bro
Muscle memory, flawless technique, and *relaxed* A true master of his craft! Uttermost respect!
Hey I am Mike Wolff, I mixed/mastered this playthrough version of the song. Reading all those lovely comments almost brings tears to my eyes. Thank you all for watching/listening to this. Thank you all for enjoying the amazing drumming of Gee! And especially grateful for being able to work on this track :)
Nice work!
Sounded awesome!
Drums sound sick!
Mike you did an amazing job
Sounds awesome, mate!
Killer kit and spot on performance. I think he’s ready to ascent being the holy tambourine player in the band!
more cowbell!
Triangle
@@erikknudsenmork4536 Thats Stevie T's gig
5:49 I was already smiling so much through the whole song, but THIS made me smile so much more..!
Goosebumps man!
Same man!
I'm a Drummer myself and i was like how the f*ck did he so that ?!? I can't even do it two handed :( :DD
Saw him yesterday with Dragonforce...amazing. This energy is great. Thx a lot from Saarbrücken
Most artists would hate their "big hit" song after a year. Dragonforce has been embracing TTFAF since I was in highschool.
It's like they have only one song to perform haha
so they should haha it’s a masterpiece
@@twikie258 One hit wonders tour all the time. And they play THE SONG at the end every time. If they played it first, people would just leave.
Well, it still slaps.
Through the Fire and Flames and Memes we carry on!
I love the fact that Gee is almost ALWAYS smiling in the videos he shares here or when he's streaming on twitch. 😁💖🤘
I love his Twitch channel! He is always smiling and greets everyone!
@@rhoneranger549 Yes, he does. I watch gees twitch. I just lurk.
...and not releasing a single sweat drop after 8 minutes of fire drumming 🔥
I'd be smiling the entire time I played drums too if I were that good
I mean, I GUESS he's alright ;)
Nothing better than a drummer having fun playing drums. Just the happiest person at any show.
That was so sick
Oh god, the *dragon* herself is coming LMAO
A prime example of a master Musician whos honed his skills over the years
Is it only me that think that this version shows how Gee has improved his skills considerably over the years? He was great on the first video, but I believe this one is even better!
He makes it looks absolutely effortless now with his own flair.
I mean, after 10 years of playing this song he's got to be better right?
But yeah, an amazing drummer
@@matrug0078 actually, no. After 10 years, you can just get old. Specially at this level of drumming, you might not endure a lot
Gee & Junna could make a band on their own.
They both have the Force & the Joy
to express it.
Both are Legends. 😎😍😎😍😎🌹
- Amazing Drummer (smiles while playing too!)
- Great Cooker
- Super cool and happy guy
Italy must be so damn proud of you.
He wants to get hired a second time
Great cover. He should play for the @DragonForce
He does lol
@@James.ceta14 no shit
Maybe it is just a hobby for him.. 😂
I see his passion!
@@James.ceta14 don't you know what sarcasms is?
Hai bang hahahahha
Ya know what's awesome to see??
That you still obviously have so much fun playing this song! Everything from the added accents, to the stick tricks and the singing along and smiling throughout... It all just screams that even though you have played this song hundreds of times, had a whole career defined by this one song, that there is still joy in it!
So many bands and artists end up hating their most popular creations, it's nice to see someone still able to have fun with it!
I swear, there is nothing more wholesome than seeing how happy Gee is while he's killing it on the drums. Amazing job man.
Gee was meant to be in dragonforce. He’s honestly the best thing to ever happen to that band after the original lineup 🤘🏻
Agreed, he is a beast 🔥
This is freaking awesome.
It's great to see a Man who loves playing his Drums always with so much joy, passion and a big smile... 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Gee is the perfect Drummer for DragonForce👍🏻
So relaxed while getting good sound, staying perfectly in time, and having fun (dug the rabdom crossover on the first 2 toms).
Such a good example of what I love about drumming!
I've watch a lot of drummers try to drum this song. This was pure pleasure to watch the master play his song! Bravo!!!
This guy is really good, he should audition to play with DragonForce
Edit: I have successfully wooshed most people replying to this, thanks for your participation those of you who got the joke
He is the official drummer for DragonForce
@@connorcampbell144 woosh
Bro, actually this is the drummer dragonforce
The amount of people not getting the joke is bugging me too much!
Yes, he is the official drummer of Dragonforce 🤣
To be so relaxed and play this just shows how much of a beast he is
That ending edit is epic!!! 10 years
I always get goosebumps when in the presence of raw talent, and this is no exception. You're truly awesome! Cheers from Patagonia!
I'm loving how happy he looks, his smiles are the best. Great vibes!
The flashback at the end to his original cover was an awesome touch.
Great performance. And I want to notice 2 things.
1. The control of the volume is great. Some drummers make loud hits on snare when play slow and when they get faster the volume goes down and you don't hear blast beats and fills. But here the drummer plays in the same dynamics and volume so you can hear all the fills and hits and nothing loses in a mix.
2. The strength of playing. The drummer doesn't hit very hard. And I think it is mostly becuase of the touring experience when you must save strenght to play the full show. So you must control power and speed not to get tired very soon.
Great performance of the real master! Thank you for sharing this masterpiece with us!
This is the authentic drum cover you've looking for.
I'm always feels amazed when the original band members playing their own song!!!
This double kick is so amazing to me. Great vid!
The contrast between the old video and this one is so cool to watch. 10 years ago Gee looked not exactly tense but very eager to impress and now he just seems content and happy with what he achived so far. I wish Gee at least another 10 years and hopefully even more success and happyness!
Jesus playing the drums!!! This guy is insane on the drums, how relaxed he is playing these fast beats, he’s always smiling…
Not particularly a fan of DF, but a HUGE fan of Gee. Always brings out monstrous performances and makes them look so effortless.
You basically wrote my comment. He’s a beast. Everything is flawless and looks effortless.I can think of 1-10 drummers who could take lessons.Lars cough,cough.
the tempo changes. The comping. Have never heard this level of play. Stunned
Gee Anzalone 10 years later: the story of a great drummer progressing to Epic level. The carefree way you do this, the variation you put in and most of all the fun you have while doing it is so fantastic to see and hear. The amount of work and dedication you put in to constantly hone your already impressive skills is truly amazing. The 'thing' about you was once the way you got into the band, but you've proven a long time ago your story goes way beyond that. Keep on doing what you do and bring an equally genuine smile to a lot of people's faces!!!!
And you know as a drummer when you've reached the pinnacle of "epic" is when you not only have signature drum sticks "Promark Drum Sticks: 5B Model Gee Anzalone DragonForce" like most other endorsed pros, but custom made signature "Czarcie Kopyto "‘Supreme’" Kick Drum Pedals - DragonForce Limited Edition" kick pedals!!!
Love the smiles and the expressions you get while playing! It's absolutely contagious :)
Here is a man who truly loves what he does. Who wouldn't want to go from covering a band to playing with them?! Rock on, my friend!
This is thr only song I can listen to on repeat for my 1.5 hour commute to amd from work. I watch drum and guitar covers. It is truly a masterpiece. The lyrics. The melody. The drums and the guitars everything is perfect.
Man, I just love how much fun this dude is having, it's contagious! 🔥🔥🔥
He always looks so happy when playing drums ☺️
Guys come to Twitch to see him in action too. He streams drums when he's healthy and it's nice to come and support him
What is his twitch account name?
You can always tell a master of an instrument....they make things that are insanely difficult look easy. What a relaxed style...but still so much power. The foot work is awesome. That was a joy to watch and listen to!
One of my favorite drummers. Gee your insane and love watching you play. Absolutely incredible and love Dragonforce 🤘
Bro his skills speed technique are unreal and his sheer enjoyment playing this made it all the more enjoyable for me to watch it love from Ireland 🇮🇪💚
It's really hard to watch this without smiling, Gee has a strong force of personality. (And an even stronger sense of timing and consistency, hot damn.)
Damn. Incredible technique, timing and effortlessly entertaining to watch. Great work!
I love how relaxed he is and how he looks like he is having fun
I remember seeing him play this live in Birmingham Alabama a few years ago. I will never forget him pointing his drum stick at me and throwing it to me after this song. Still have it, one of my most treasures memories. Thanks dude, you are the best!
I live in Birmingham. They came here?
@@cerwin76 yup! About 3 years ago now. Wish I could see them again. I'd be first in line for a concert.
This is the last place I expected to see a yugituber lol. How did you manage to catch the stick with everyone else reaching for it?
@@ninezerotwo1778
I mean,one has to catch it,right?
This is super super super amazing!!!!!
He sometimes hits the same phrase as he did ten years ago.
Awesome double bass drum stability. The fill-in is also comfortable with the same sound
And he keeps smiling with this difficult drum! Most humans are desperate and pull their faces.
I swear Gee looks like he would make the perfect cup of coffee every single time and he would say the secret is love ❤
Its amazing how relaxed, comfortable, and happy he is playing this. A true expert at his craft.
It's been almost 10 years since I starded druming and this video was a big inspiration to me!
It’s awesome to see how much you’ve achieve in 10 year since the original cover Gee. Love your work! 🤘
This song gives me nostalgia now 😢. Great cover and the drum setup is dopee
Makes it look effortless. Gee is the master of his craft. Love the enthusiasm!
Amazing to hear the drums louder in the mix than you're used to. Theres some old videos here on youtube of previous drummer Dave playing solo at a drum clinic. Neat to compare the two artists playing.
I'm watching and listening right now, and this is some real talent!
Gee is one of my favourite drummers ever.. The happiest and most relaxed epic-drummers ever.. Go Gee…! 🤘😎
He plays like the original drummer of Dragonforce.
Awesome 😁😁
It's amazing how this chef turns out to be pretty good on drums
OMG, he's went through the song effortless and his reaction, enjoyed every second of it like riding a bike going 88mph :)
So many great drum covers of this legendary song (including that delightful one by Junna), but all hail the master! Sitting here with my jaw hanging open...
Pure unbridled joy!! And such relaxed playing too
This is straight flawless! So clean and controlled!
clean like the original
The bit on the double kicks starting at 1:40 is incredible
He makes it look so easy, so effortless. A master at work!! 🤘🙂🥁✨
Love those cymbals! Sound amazing!
It's the Gee power and that smile it's gold :)
I wish he covered other songs like Operation Ground and Pound, Heartbreak Armageddon, Heart of Dragon, etc. All have great drum sections.
Operation ground and pound. Never I have seen anybody mentioned this song
He looks so genuinely happy playing and very relaxed. I love it!!! Hope I can play this song someday
No matter how many times I see this and listen to this song it never gets old. Music on drums..
You made it look even easier ten years on.
Superb.
This is almost hilariously nonchalant and I fucking love it.
Dude makes this shit look absolutely effortless, enough that it makes me think I could do it without breaking both my ankles immediately
Simply superb. Absolutely perfect.
He’s a master on drums. Simply amazing. It still would be fun to see Junna come onstage and play some
Makes it look so easy. 🤘🏻🤘🏻 rock on brother.
I watched his reaction to Junna playing this song and he was extremely complimentary, I liked her version a lot but, OMG I had no idea how much better it could be done.
I had this same.
Perfectly played. Gee makes it looks majestic and effortless
It looked so effortless! Amazing job! Thanks!
Those speed drills are paying off! It's not that you weren't fast, just that now your motions look so effortless.
I’m worried that the insane consistency of those upbeat snare hits may haunt my dreams tonight 🤧😄😄😄😄
Makes it look completely effortless.. this is amazing beyond words 👍🏼
Amazing!!!!
I've lost words!!!
What a clean note...
Gee is an absolute amazing BEAST! And such an awesome guy, love him. Great video 🤘🏻
Too kind! Same for you! Thank you very much brother!
Everybody stays with guitars in DragonForce, but with this video it shows the great and amazing work of Gee!!!
you are so chill and smiling playing this track, i just want you to tell me stories about ancient times, dwarves and dragons, and listen to your stories until dawn. Epic cover, epic vibe, good job sir !
Gee you are simply amazing!!!! 😃👍 Can’t stop watching all videos of this incredible song!!
lol such a cheerful guy, nothing but positive attitude. Id have a beer with him. Cheers brother!
Man you've got some serious skills! Not easy to keep this tempo during 8 minutes... Good job 🔥
Love the cuts at the end to your old playthrough put a smile on my face
Smiling to the hole song Ang dubbel on point!! You make me. Smile all the way 🤘♥️
Good to see the Sons of Durin sounding the battledrums once more.
0:32 Vadim 😭 miss him so much
Everyone misses Vadim and his keyboard magic touch
esse cara toca essa musica como se fosse a razão de sua existência na terra. Me emocionei nessa playthrouth!!! sou fã de vcs a mais de 10 anos.
Awesome. One of the happiest drummers on the planet. He is always smiling when he plays.
Damn, this guy nailed it. He should cover all Dragonforce's song. 😱
yeah Gee should totally be on their album, including all the newer stuff and future stuff 🤣🤫
Как ты в этих барабанах не путаешся, одному богу известно. Талантище и большая умница.
Makes it look effortless, awesome
I never get tired of watching this. Amazes me everytime!
