Did Chad NAIL this song or what!?
Huge thanks to Mind Lab Pro for sponsoring!!! bit.ly/66samus-MLP
Ohhh Yurrrr!
My brain is sh*t, wow.
I'm a new subscriber love it Chad is a blast love his technique... I suck at Blast beats but you ohhh yurrrr ! 😅 love your channel
Is 66samus about to try outfir slipknot then call yourself 6(sic)Samus
Sex
Thanks for this amazing video.
I bet at least a dozen people have said that Chad looks like Will Ferrell!😮
It's absolutely insane how close Chad got in one go just by active listening, but it shows what a musician he is and why he's in the hall of fame. Chad's also a great personality so he'd be a phenomenal teacher too.
He didn’t even let it play thru 1x!! Guy is way underrated and so talented
By close you mean surpassed the original
@@fucker661 I dunno about surpassed, definitely some parts I liked Shannon's version better, but Chad's iteration is really well executed for someone who's literally listening to it without prior knowledge.
@@fucker661ilike this one more than the original
if you havent seen it here is a link to chad giving a lesson to nandi bushnell ( ua-cam.com/video/3vdnfz_zG_4/v-deo.html ) the young drummer who challenged dave grohl to a drum off and eventually played with the foo fighters live once and then again at the memorial concert (ua-cam.com/video/MRvHI8tgx8A/v-deo.html link to the original challenge )
I've watched him play that at least 20 times and it never gets old. He nails it.
Legit the same
Only 20? I've watched at least 50,000 different reactions.
Same😂
He “fuckin” nails it.
Factz
I'd watched quite a few of these DRUMEO videos, and normally people listen to the whole track, maybe more than once, and even make a couple of takes. Chad just goes into it in like the third measure. Insane!!! Just gets the groove and goes for it! No second take... amazing!
Sugarfoot played Linkin Park's Numb the first time he heard it. From the first measure. And he gave it a different feel but he nailed it too.
@@HugoRBMarques went to check it and you're right, thanks for pointing it out, he does play it on first listen 🎶 another monster !
Yes as I've jokingly said multiple times, he listened for 30 Seconds....to 30 Seconds from Mars 🤣
I'm not sure i'm ready for this still
RIP Chester :(
Thanks for sharing though i will check it out some time @@HugoRBMarques
It's all feeling for him. Dude just gets it
It never stops amazing me how some drummers can just lock into a rhythm and even can accurately guess the changes. So much respect for Chad. 🤘 OHH YUUUR!
Yes but majority of songs have a predictable structure. You can approximatively cover a lot without knowing
@@Croco140 pretty much, this one is very very simple structure wise and very predictable so no wonder he can play it haha
This is the exact reaction my wife has when I can hear things and figure it out instantly. Chad's work here is absolutely amazing, as was all of his drumeo work.
It’s easy the more you do it. I spent years playing jazz, swing, and rock and really you can just hop in and ride the bike anytime with any band if you’re talented.
Dude's been playing for decades. He could probably do that shit in his sleep.
The thing about Chad's insane musicality is that he listens a lot to the rhythym patterns of the vocal parts. Go find any RHCP live perfo and you'll see that he is always matching and emphasizing Kiedis' vocal rhythmic patterns.
Totally agree. He has a talent for syncing up to the vibes of the vocals.
Yeah, he's a big influence on how I play & I've always tried to do the same (when the music has lyrics or accent a guitar solo).
especially around the world
Nice take
That stick was just like "nah fuck this shit, I'm done" 😂
The raw energy on his take of the song is intoxicating. FUCKING LEGEND.
Chad has set a new standard for this Drumeo challenge. Normally the person listens to it once or twice thru, writes their part, then does a couple takes to play their rendition. Him doing it so well on the first pass, first time hearing the drum less track.... AWESOME!
you can tell he's not just a talented drummer within the context of RHCP, but also as a session musician too. Makes sense that he picked it up so quickly, he seems to be a very versatile musician.
He heard like 30 seconds and was like "ok, got it".
@@paulcox2447to mars?
Chad is 61-62 years old in this video, what an incredible energy. Must be an example for anyone scared to get old.
Or someone who is just really THAT good. Fear doesn't play into anything that smooth. It's called LOVE for the beats.
his improv was SO good i have a hard believing hes never heard it be before. the rhythm is spot on and he flawlessly matches the songs energy
the way he smiles right before he starts playing is like he’s thinking “oh, I know this one…”. Pretty sure he foreshadowed with the “I’m not telling you if I know it, I’m just gonna play it” bit.
@@Wyl7 there are parts (mainly the bridge) where he’s making adjustments as he’s hearing Jared’s voice.
@@rmoore2nd619yeah it’s so impressive lol. Like just a quick adjustment
I've never been the biggest RCHP fan. Their sound isn't really my thing. But I respect the living shit out of them. They are ALL incredibly talented musicians, and all very interesting to watch work their craft. It just goes to show that even more, when you wouldn't be able to tell the difference between the "OT" and the "never heard before".
"You want another take?"
"No. I fuckin nailed it"
Truer words have never been spoken
Check out the 60 minutes piece. Really good.
This is someone who so intimately understands the language of music, and almost instantly picks up all the queues and flawlessly plays along. Legend.
This video of Chad just speaks to his inherent musical ability. The fact that he can not only just start playing along without knowing the song, and can anticipate HOW and WHERE the song is going to go next, shows how much he understands how to properly compose a song.
100% what I thought. You can see he's an active musician that jams a lot and writes a ton of music too. I'm still shocked he's so good
I think it just shows that Chad has an developed an amazing feel for music throughout all those years of playing music and jamming along with his band mates. He seems to know by instinct when there's another part coming up, etc. His whole video series on Drumeo is so entertaining to watch. One of my all time favourite drummers. He might not be the most flashy drummer but I absolutely love his playing style.
Damn, Will Ferrell has got skills!
But seriously Chad is a pure joy to watch in this vid, bonus points for the British Steel album t-shirt
It's the fact that he's so quick to adapt to something he's never heard before. The way he calls it when to start drumming again because of the subtle volume increase just before the final chorus.
I love how Chad can always easily find the "Pocket" AND SLAM when the song calls for it.
My God his fucking ability to read the song on his first take is absolutely in-fucking-sane!!
Chad Smith is actually underrated. Sure he’s very well known for what he’s done. He’s not a metal drummer but the dude has major chops. He has this certain feel to his playing that dude could practically play anything with tribal feeling.
Another prime example of this kind of skill is with drummer Stephen Perkins.
I seen them with Babymetal supporting, and they done the Judas Priest song 'Painkiller' with Chad on drums. The dude obviously can play metal. It's funny now I see him wearing a Judas Priest t-shirt so he obviously knew the song beforhand. But he was incredible with that song. NAILED IT!
Edit: Here it is ua-cam.com/video/TcxngW6w5q0/v-deo.htmlsi=StCwY5xlZ3ZByhL4
He's no Joey Jordison though......
You mean criminally overrated?!!
@@johnnyreaper9714Joey and so many other drummers in rock and metal are better than this overrated drummer!
faster doesn't mean better, the groove Chad has, Joey could never imagined to have while he was still alive, and Chad is pretty solid rock/metal drummer, but he plays for Chilis when he needs to adapt his groove for funk/alt rock /@@momomono795
Dude... There is "Built Different" and then there is Chad Smith, WTF!!! I saw him and the RHCP at the First Ever Rolling Rock Town Fair and they were incredible. Chad is an incredible drummer. Also breaking a stick while slamming the skins is next level even on Drumeo.
Have played drums in varying capacities for 20 years. Nothing beats a 6/8 song you can wail on. Love it!
Thank you for nailing the time signature! I thought it was in 6/8 immediately just from the phrasing of the vocals, but I can see how it would make sense to a percussionist as 3 + 3.
Haha took you long enough! This one clip elevated my respect for Chad into the stratosphere.
My new favourite drummer.
Man his recovery from "mistakes" is so cool.
The way he just breaks the stick off dead center at the strongest part is just demonic.
the broken stick was the effin' cherry on top!!
That’s a professional musician for you. Absolute legend.
a clear 12/ 10 performance and he´s really sympathetic guy nailing it so easily
Of all these drumeo first reaction videos so far Chad's has been my favorite
Chad is a way underated drummer. He is such a beast!!!!! Especially when you have played with Satch, Hagar and Michael Anthony!!!!!
Shannon Leto (30 Seconds To Mars' drummer) is one of the most underrated drummers out there. Dude puts SO much energy into his performances
This is amazing. I can't wait for the 66Samus "First Time Hearing This Song". I mean, I do watch it twice a week on his Twitch live streams, but let's go. #GetSamus \GHOGF/
And that would be Jazz. 😅
Really cool. He got the feel instantly. Chads energy is just total!😊
Chad is a legend!! God tier drummer
I watch this clip every time it comes up or someone does a reaction.. and the face you make midway through just grinning is what makes it the best. What a cool dude and a great video
One of my all time favorite drummers. Awesome how he just went with it.
This video from Drumeo made me fall in love with Chad! Such an amazing drummer, fan of drummers and personality!
SAME!!
You gotta check out what he was up to in Brazil... He just became a brazilian citizen...
This is some of the most fun content to consume on UA-cam. Crazy to see the talent and musical interpretation
I've watch that a few times and I absolutely love how the energy of the song, the energy of the build up between the verse and chorus just pushes him into smashing whatever he feels! So awesome to see.
Wow, for Chad Smith to not hear this song before but to be able to get it in 3o seconds (pun intended) and come up with some batshit insane drum fills literally on the fly? I might not be a huge RHCP fan but I can't deny that he and Michael "Flea" Balzary are insanely talented.
RHCP is effectively a "jam band" at their core, that's how they come up with most of their material (and IMO what gives it the energy) but THIS is what you're able to do when you're comfortable within that context. He simply listened to what was being played, and played along. It was absolutely fascinating to watch and the fact that he got "most of it 'right'" is absolutely outrageous actually lol.
Chad is so talented with improvising that this didn’t surprise me. He can latch onto musical motifs almost immediately and start making his own flourishes of them. The chops are completely unmatched
He even does background drums for people like Dua Lipa. Dude just loves music amd playing drums 🤷♂️😂
“No, I fuckin’ nailed it!” Never have I heard such confidence without knowledge of how close he actually came. You’re absolutely right, Chad. You fuckin nailed it!
Watching this makes me wonder if he would get a spot in a sequel Hardest Hitting Drummers list. Even an honorable mention for breaking one of his sticks here?
But seriously, this was great!
I’ve watched it 5 or 6 times and it is still bloody amazing. He nailed it , he’s truly mastered his craft
The passionate face that you do between 9:15-9:40 shows how much you love this stuff. Great video!
I’ve watched this video with Chad a million times and it never gets old. I was happy to see that you reacted to it! Much love man!
drum for over 40 years,the feel for changes becomes inherent. 30 Seconds is relatively formulaic. I love watching these drumeo vids,the tone on the drums is always perfection.
Ive seen this video easily a dozen times and every time i rewatch its an experience. Chad is a legend and hands down one of the all time greats in modern music (for his muisicianship and personality)
That is the perfect demonstration of pure natural talent. I mean yes i know hes a very educated drummer. But to be able to jump right into a tune and catch the changes and everything like that. You cant learn that type of stuff, that pure natural skill.
He slayed it …period
I have watched the original drumeo video I dont know how many times, genuinely cant get enough... and agian now with your commentary is priceless!
Doesn't get old watching Chad Smith play this. Love his version! He looked like he was having so much fun improving, too!
Chad Smith is brilliant lol I love his attitude!
Chad Smith is a funky, rock drummer . This is a perfect example of why he is in the hall of fame . I love how he always keeps the high hat moving and accents everything so beautifully! He just goes for it and nails it . I could watch this a million times !
40 years on the drums and this man is incredible. He anticipates better than anyone I have seen.
i was waiting for you to do a video on this. he absolutely kills this song, drumeo had no idea what to do. shortest episode they have done.
To me, thats my favorite vid from drumeo. Chad is just too fkn cool!!!
I had no idea he was this talented! He did great!
It's hard to appreciate how damn hard this is. The ability to know what's supposed to be there and what it's supposed to sound like only comes thru decades of drumming.
I was literally looking for this reaction on your channel yesterday, and today, here it is! 🤩🤣 SO Happy! Loved it!
Chad’s video is absolutely PRICELESS!!! He absolutely nailed it with ZERO regrets. For him to have it so close with minimal effort shows his true talent. I wish I knew how many times I actually watch that because it’s truly ridiculous. 🖤🖤🖤
The fact that he nailed in one take proves he is the best
The segue into the Mindlab Pro ad was AMAZING 🤣. Well done sir, well done.
It was one of the coolest and funniest Dromeo's video. Chad is outstanding drummer. He's legend.
I don't even play drums yet your reaction is so genuine and heartwarming. Keep up the great attitude in life!
There's truly nothing that Will Ferrell can't do...
Chad’s version is better than the original!
It's gnarly to see that Ricky Bobby's drumming career has taken off so well!
All extremely old Will Ferrell jokes aside, Chad's fuckin' awesome!
Thanks for making this. Until I stumbled upon that video I had no idea about this world. I found your channel and other drumming legends. Love it. That Drumeo vid with Chad is the coolest thing ever. Glad your reaction was same as mine even if I know nothing about the drum world. Cheers from Myanmar
Chad is literally one of my favorite non metal drummers, this was amazing
Im a guitar player and watching you react to this kinda gives me an appreciation for drummers that I didnt have before. This is awesome, and Chad is also very awesome.
The OG song and his rendition are so similar, it is insane!
I am in awe. Wow.
Dude you NEED to react to the drummer from Megadeath playing along to Mr. Brightside. It’s so good!!
What is so amazing about Chad is it was just one play through. Other drummers have to map everything out and have multiple listens, but not Chad! That was epic!
That was Sik
absolutly amazing. so much fun to watch!
Dude made an arguably better drum line on the fly. What a fucking legend
Bro, your reaction vids are the best by far! 🤘🏻🔥
"No more, Mr. Chad! I'll pay on time from now on!" - Drum Kit
I love these "do your own thing" improv videos.
One of the greatest drummer, thank you!
Having a lot of fun watching the original Drumeo vids and then watching your reactions.
My instrument is singing, but I can tell when a musician is into it when their mouth and body start to move with the music. Chad is amazing. I appreciate anybody that can play an any instrument as well as chad can play drums. ❤❤
That was impressive, I’ve never listened to 30 seconds to mars before, but his playing fit perfectly.
This guy is a living legend!🤘
It was so fun looking at your reaction. That 22 was amazing
I’m guessing your videos were recommended as I binged a whole lot of the original videos yesterday. I absolutely love your energy in these reactions.
Have you see the Nandi Bushell/Twisted Sister one? 13 years old and she nailed it after just a couple of takes.
I love the fact I got to see you react to my favorite drummer and you enjoyed it as much as I do he’s a fucking badass love him as a musician and person
I loved that video. Watched it a few times. Watching your reaction was a no brainer.
this drum video of the year !
Chad is a master drummer, groove and pocket is unreal.
The amount of raw power and grit that comes through even in a studio through sound dampening walls and compressed microphones is fking unreal.
Chad didn't even need to listen once.
Chad Smith is such a GOAT. He can get to the heart of any song soooo fast this man is a legend!
some of the other Chad Smith Drumeo videos are also awesome. Enjoy and thanks for this, im a brand new drummer and this channel is amazing.
He nailed it!!! I have watched this a few times because I just love the energy and the enjoyment he was getting from playing it. I also agree with him,,, I love to jam sometimes to stuff I'll pull off of Spotify just to play outside of my norm.
This was amazing! It's such a joy to watch people so skilled at their craft.
Watched the original video first and thanks for confirming it doesn't happen like that usually, but that shows how pro he is, just picks a new one and continues, amazing, do like what you bring with your commentary on top!
his hearing and understanding is incredible 👍🏼👍🏼
I've watched this series from Drumeo a bit... And seeing Chad just take off, and smash it from the get go... Is just amazing.
Samus, i just bought a WHOLE NEW DRUM SET with 4 TOMS AND 2 PERCUSSIONS!! I call it the kit number 22
Also, I can’t unsee your eyes since I saw your “flavored air vape” eyes. I can laugh on command thinking about that shit, hilarious editing!
I was waiting so hard for that! AYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
