  • I had such a blast when my band The Gäs opened for Manfred Mann's Earth Band last summer. It was an Open Air Show, there were actual people (a lot!) in the audience and everybody was enjoying themselves. Looking back, it seems like times long gone. But things will brighten up again, so I guess we all just need a little more patience...

    Blinded By The Mondegreen
    The song "Blinded by the Light" is actually a song written and recorded, in 1972, by Bruce Springsteen. It appeared on his debut album 'Greetings from Asbury Park, N.J.' in 1973. The album didn't do so well for Springsteen, when it was originally released. It reached #60 in the US and #41 in the UK. The song didn't do any better for Bruce. It failed to chart in 1973 as well as in 1977 on a European re-release.
    The lyrics are rather strange, often unrelated. Springsteen said he used a rhyming dictionary to aid his choices. In his album version, he repeats the chorus "Blinded by the light, cut loose like a deuce, another runner in the night" only three times.
    As luck would have it, South African musician Manfred Mann decided to cover the song for his seventh studio album 'The Roaring Silence' in 1976. He reworked both the style and lyrics, particularly the chorus, which he changed to "revved up like a deuce" and repeats the phrase more times than I care to count. It was a smash hit receiving major airplay throughout the world. SongFacts says "It is one of the most triumphant covers ever recorded." The album, 'The Roaring Silence', was top ten in the US, Canada, the UK, Norway, and Austria. "Blinded by the Light" hit #1 in the US and Canada, and #6 in the UK.
    Many people are unaware of the Springsteen origin in much the same way as they think of "All Along The Watchtower" as being a Jimi Hendrix original rather than Bob Dylan. Dylan is fine with that, as is Bruce.
    Another item of interest is the chorus, which is a mondegreen, or often misheard song lyric. Like hearing Jimi sing "S'cuse me, while I kiss this guy" instead of "kiss the sky" in "Purple Haze" or John Fogerty singing "There's a bathroom on the right" rather than "There's a bad moon on the rise". SongFacts states - "Generations of fans have misheard it as "wrapped up like a douche." Springsteen has even joked that his song did not become popular until it was re-written to be about feminine hygiene products. Said Springsteen: "Deuce was like a Little Deuce Coupe, as in a 2-seater Hot Rod. Douche is a feminine hygienic procedure. But what can I say, the public spoke."
    FUN FACT - Mann's version includes the "Chopsticks" melody played on piano near the end of the bridge of the song. Mann told 'TeamRock' "The real problem was how to get from the chorus to the verse smoothly. Our drummer Chris Slade said: 'Play Chopsticks over it'."
    Of course, Rosanna asked Sina if there was anything interesting or unusual with the drum part - "The most brilliant thing about this drumpart is for me the unintuitive stretching of the groove into the next HiHat part. It is one bar longer than expected (for example in my cover at about 1:26). I can't explain why I like this so much, I just do. It brings more tension into the song."
    "When I searched for this song on iTunes to download for the video, I noticed that there were different versions of the song. Knowing "Blinded by the Light" from the radio, I never knew about the middle section. I listened once to decide whether or not I should cover the longer version and I really liked the guitar solo as well as the way the band comes in and out of the solo back to the chorus. It's a shame they never broadcast this on the radio (maybe this is different in other countries, but in Germany a song is not allowed to be longer than 3 minutes if it's not "Bohemian Rhapsody"). I always liked the song, but I always felt there was something missing from the short edit. Now I know why!"
    And that's it for this week!

    As a retired professor with a major in music theory and World percussive arts, you have very good technique and are one of the best young drummers I've ever seen. Many have great chops, but, when it comes to technical prowess you're very, very good. At over 60 years old, it took many years of practice, playing in my drum room, playing live, studying/teaching in college, touring and life experiences to be able to pull off some of the licks you make look so easy. It's nice to see such a young person with so much talent have the drive and commitment to excel at the pace you have. Keep it up. And above all, remember to give something back to the up and coming drummers as you Rock through your life. Great Job Sina. Nutty Professor

      @@leokimvideo I think he was a great drummer for his time but as far as being technically sound, that was his weakness. Talent was never his shortcoming, however, if you pay real close attention to his rudimental knowledge it was (in my opinion), just a little above average, but, his groupings are and were his trademark. If you get the chance study his 4-way independence and you'll see that because of the style he developed, he had more of a 3-way independence. That was his trademark because through it all, he was one of the few legends that was able to make it work, almost to perfection. I still own every album (vinyl of course) that he ever played on with the "WHO".

    I am 57. After a life time of being told NO to my wanting to learn drums, by parents, wife (now the ex), ect., this young lady has inspired me to pick up the sticks. Purchased a kit two months ago. I practice 5 to 6 nights a week anywhere for an hour to two hours. I will never achieve the level of Sina, not enough time in my life to get the 10,000 hours needed, but I am enjoying the heck out of it. It has confirmed what I've always known since a was a very young lad, that I was meant to sit behind a kit.

    A song from my teenage days ,,,, And I never really realized how complex and difficult this drum part is. And to see a true master of her trade on the drums here really takes your breath away.
    I used to say that I admire these people who get behind the drums. And only a few of them make it to the top.
    Our Lady Sina not only plays at the top, she is without a doubt one of the few who can and may be called world class. She plays in a league in which only a few members gather.
    And watching her at work is a great honor.
    I can only bow deeply to her ability.
    Lady Sina, you stand at the gates of the drummer Olympus. It is time to step through this gate. With such achievements, it is undoubtedly more than deserved.
    Ein Song aus meinen Jugendtagen,,,,Und mir war nie wirklich bewußt, wie komplex und schwierig dieser Drum-Part ist. Und hier eine wahre Meisterin ihres Faches an den Drums zu sehen, raubt einem wirklich den Atem.

    Unsere Lady Sina aber spielt nicht nur ganz oben, sie gehört ohne Zweifel zu den wenigen, die man Weltklasse nennen kann und darf. Sie spielt in einer Liga, in der sich nur wenige Mitglieder versammeln.
    Und ihr bei der Arbeit zuzusehen, ist eine große Ehre.

Thank you for your covers and for THE GAS your great.

    So this song switches between a high-hat swish and a ride ping. That's why it's so good 👍.

    This a absolutely impressive...again! Maybe I'm a 70's rock music snob (I'm 52) or just the fact that I've put headphones on 20-30 times since I was 18 and drummed along with this song, but it's common "drummer knowledge" how fantastic and killer the drum track is on this song. Chris Slade is amazing! He's the bald drummer who ended up with AC/DC in the 90's and also on the Firm with Jimmy Page and Paul Rodgers. I've been selling this song to all my musicians friends for decades on the absolute stellar drumming by that man. His drumming is phenomenal on many of MM's stuff from 1971-77.
    Sina plays it basically spot on. Such passion, vigor and pure enjoyment! She has moments of overplaying just a tad but it's stems from pure passion, which is a beautiful thing. Keep working on your dynamics. The quiet breakdown beat is right on the $. I was anxiously awaiting the 16th notes on the kick as a "fill" during the mellow groove, which she did very well. Great snare rolls too!
    Sina, don't ever stop playing the drums....you are in the zone and you have the best thing a drummer can have that CANNOT be taught...inner feel, a superb ear and the ability to mimic almost everything you hear in a drum performance. Cheers to you!

I saw the band in 1981 and I clearly remember the moment when the lights on the stage went out. Then the band started the next song and at the song line "Blinded By The Light" all the glaring spotlights on the stage went on in the direction of the audience and blinded us all and when we could see something again, their singer Chris Thompson was at the top of the stage and sang what we had just experienced: Blinded By The Light, unforgettable!

    Until the late 90's I only knew the MME version of the song and I loved it. I had bought the Roaring Silence the year the vinyl came out. Then IIRC in 1998 I saw Bruce play it live on stage as a pure piano solo... and that was simply phantastic in its own way. However the MME version is way smoother and once heard, you won't lose it for hours and hours.
    In this vid the impeccable rhythm coming from the drums is way better than what was hearable on the old vinyl. The intro, the regular as well as the hispeed fills are done in perfertion. Pure enjoyment!

    Ah, the good old days when rock music was great and the diversity of styles could be found in so many bands.
    I guess it’s a signal I‘m getting old when I start glorifying these times when I grew up with this music on the radio and going to concerts of these bands (MMEB 1979, 1981 and sometimes in the 90s).
    BTW: In these times they often played the long versions of songs on the radio. I can remember hearing the full version of „Get ready“ (23 minutes) several times on air, once they had to interrupt it for urgent traffic news 😁

    Once again a fantastic performance ; I can tell you worked hard with this song as Chris Slade (AC/DC drummer) is a powerful fast drummer and this track is no exception. Like Bonham, Slade hits his drums harder than most others. By not smiling or glancing at the camera, I noticed you focusing and really looking at your drum set intently, which by the way was shaking much more than in other videos. This song really pushed your excellent drum skills to the limit. When the song was over you were out of breath and slid your headset of with much relief. This why I tip my hat off to you--Chris Slade drumming is difficult for most drummers to follow. Great job, we are all impressed. Keep it up!
