*UPDATE* - I just did a complete cover of this song on my active channel, "Magic Jones" - feel free to join in the fun over there (it's a much more active channel) Here's the link to the 2022 version of Music Box Dancer: ua-cam.com/video/4WANAvUIpio/v-deo.html
Drummers are insane! always tapping...tapping...tapping They're some of my favorite people... The worst case I ever saw was sitting in Georgia summer traffic. I looked over and the guy in the car next to me had his air conditioner on with all his windows up, tapping all over the dash of the car with real drumsticks! Drummers, indeed...🇺🇸 😎👍☕
@@Artcitysound I thought drums would ruin it but I clicked it on anyway. Wow. Just wow. You took the song to a new level. Incredible drum skills and the drum composition didn't distract from the feelings the original Frank Mills instrumental evoked. Thank you so much for this.
6 years since I first heard this beautiful masterpiece and I keep coming back to it. The only music that my wifey doesn't complain about when I blast it in the house... Love from Canada ❤
Oh my goodness!!!!! You NAILED THIS!!!!!!! i enjoy listening to GOOD drummers and you are among the best I've listened to. Thank you for covering one of my favorite songs.
Thank you so much, Shirley! Those are some very kind words there. I really appreciate your comment, and would love to hear what you think of my newer videos, too! Make it great!
Before I could listen to Frank Mills "Music Box Dancer" for hours on end. Now I could listen to it for days on end. Great job! I thoroughly enjoyed it!
My mothers favorite musical piece, and she loves anything rythmic on drums. I recently shared this vid with her and she could not believe how beautiful her two favorite sounds sounded even more beautiful than ever when brought together for this cover. Thank you for giving my 80 ' ish year old mother something pure and remarkable and just as lovely as she has always been in my eyes. I could see tears of joy welling up in her tired eyes and it was a special feeling to us both. Thank you again, you are a talented and gifted soul. And I thank God for placing you on this earth and in my path , So She could hear this . It means very much to me as does She. Thanks.🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹
Just came across this and thought it was fantastic. I learned to play that song on the piano many years ago when I was taking lessons but I no longer play. It was great to hear your version of it.
Music box dancer is and has always been (a long time here i'm 50 LOL) one of my favorite musical pieces and i have never even thought for two seconds, i could love it more than i already do. YOU need to take a bow because you just did that. AWESOME!
My late husband was a drummer. This brought me to tears, good ones. Remimded me of him listening to cassettes while he practiced before going to band practice. Always a perfectionist with his drumming skills.
Thank you so much for your kind comment! Just in case you're wondering, I'm still active on my new channel, "Magic Jones" - click here to see some of my new music! (I covered Enya's Orinoco Flow and made it rock!) ua-cam.com/users/magicjonesmusic
Dude coppa fucked your channel over I subbed and your notification is turned off I tried but said your channel made for kids? Wtf??? Anyway s I subbed ya.👍👍👍👍👍
You have to love the looks on his face at the beginning, and during the song... Priceless... You can tell he is having some fun, and that is what matters in life... Enjoying it, and I enjoyed listening to this. Great job.
I went to high-school with a very talented young lady named Pamela Scherrer (last name may be mispelled) she played this song, the first time I heard it. I would request her to play it every chance available. She was a sweet friend, and this song with those drums is AWESOME! Reminds me of her minus the drums.
Thanks! Love this cover. Going to check out your 2022 cover. My momma loved this song. She would listen to it over and over. . You made me cry to hear such a new take on it. And putting my mamma in my afresh in my mind
FREAKING BRILLIANT! I've known the original song by Frank Mills for very long and (sshh... don't tell anybody) love that. Hearing this drum cover makes me laugh out loud throughout the song. Thanks for making my day!
Total feel good moment! Doesn't suit the music, does suit the music, hell if I can make up my mind, I don't even care, its just so damn enjoyable. Love it!!
A very good friend of mine used to play this song on the piano when I was in High School, and hearing this version makes me incredibly happy. Never knew it could sound so good. You, sir, have a very good ear and an amazing talent. Everyone who listens to this should be thanking you for making them more open to music. I tip my proverbial cap to you, good sir, and hope you'll keep doing these great covers.
So cute and fin watching at him in which he seems to be amazed himself with the music that he can be able to accompany it with his drum, very nice one, love and love it all? 💜👍😘
Very Talented, Music Is Beautiful. Reminds Me Of The Good Old Days When Music Meant Something This Guy Knows How To Play The Drums.Fantastic Music Fantastic Everything. Could Listen To This Forever. It Relaxes Me, Gets Me Away From The Outside World, Makes Feel Closer To GOG@ Heaven.6/25/17
@@LeeClaus-ec2dz Yes, you can clearly see him playing the hat. That's not in question. It is difficult to see for sure, but it does appear that he uses a double kick, as he appears to move between pedals with his left foot during the time I noted.
@@LeeClaus-ec2dz Also, watch the fill starting at just after 2:17. Lots of motion with his left leg, yet no actuation of the hat at all, but LOTS of double bass. Hmmmm........

EXCELLENT - former drummer myself in 80s Hair Bands..lol
I love his live drums with the song, AMAZING!!!
For those of us who lived through the popularity fo this song back in 1979, I like this version better. This vid deserves more views!
This Is An Absolute MASTERPIECE Adding The Drums To This Song, An Absolute MASTERPIECE. Could Listen To This Song For ETERNITY. 7/7/17
Thanks for listening and commenting, Thomas! So glad you liked the video!
Didn’t the original have drums also ?
Oh heck yeah! Your drums gave it steroids, loved it! You couldn't see or hear me but I joined in with my kazoo.
This song used to make the hair stand up on the back of my neck when I was a little kid in the 70's.
Me too I was born in '72.
Made me cry.
I kept avoiding clicking on this video as I wanted a piano cover. This ended up being the most satisfying video of all of them.
Man.. People like you make me want to keep creating videos. Thank you so much for your kind comment.
Thank you! You added a new dimension to this song.
I wish you and Frank Mills could get together and collaborate on this in person!
This song is well awesome in billions of ways.
Mate, you have a true comedic and musical talent - keep posting, brilliant!
Dude coppa fucked your channel over I subbed and your notification is turned off I tried but said your channel made for kids? Wtf??? Anyway s I subbed ya.👍👍👍👍👍

You have to love the looks on his face at the beginning, and during the song... Priceless... You can tell he is having some fun, and that is what matters in life... Enjoying it, and I enjoyed listening to this. Great job.
conexn what I thought, too. Watching his expressions is almost as much fun as listening to the song.
Very true, that's exactly what I thought.
Indeed, I like how he goes from WTF to gimmie a minute to ok, I got this.
I went to high-school with a very talented young lady named Pamela Scherrer (last name may be mispelled) she played this song, the first time I heard it. I would request her to play it every chance available. She was a sweet friend, and this song with those drums is AWESOME! Reminds me of her minus the drums.
I never liked that song. I was wondering what the heck is a drum cover about. Now I like this song - LOL Well Done!!!
Haha! Yes! Another winner! Thanks loads, Dennis! Welcome to the channel!
Excellent! Good tune and great drums, so natural. Thanks.
Must’ve listened to this about 100 times now. Amazing!!! Love it!!!! Thank you.

I´m not very addicted to music, but I watch this video again and again and I admire your talent🙂
FREAKING BRILLIANT!
I've known the original song by Frank Mills for very long and (sshh... don't tell anybody) love that.
Hearing this drum cover makes me laugh out loud throughout the song.
Thanks for making my day!
This is a very nice song, I grew up listening to this. Great job!😊 you're drumming gives it a great kick!

I never get sick of you doing this piece .
Just amazing talent, so envious.
LOL! Your facial expression is priceless when you first heard the music starting. Loved it and you did such an awesome job! Keep up the good work!
+247Heavensent That's literally my favorite thing about this. You can feel the geeked out drummer vibe practically radiating from this video!
Thank you so much. When I created this video, it was just me being my goofy self. Evidently, it struck a "chord" with some people. :)
I think your face is the poster child for how this song makes people feel. I thoroughly enjoyed watching this--several times now.
This has been my favorite song since I was a small child! I love how you add such a nice touch!
Beautiful job darling! Best drummer ever!! Kudos!😍👏
Some rock drumming to a really mellow but catchy tune. Well done!
