What an amazing performance, Will! Your mix of skill and showmanship takes the whole experience up a notch! 👊🏼| Ready to reach your drumming goals? Try Drumeo FREE for 7 days: www.drumeo.com/trial-yt
I'm still looking forward to the moment when Drumeo realizes that there are many more bands outside of the United States. Europe is a hotbed of excellent bands.
This is one of those songs that instantly transports you to the past. It's insane how just listening to this awakes so many memories of my childhood in 2003-2005
This is one of the CDs what I've burned to my wife to get her into rock/metal in 2004(...along w/ Crucify My Heart from Lullacry - another great album from that era)
Any rock-adjacent song that was on the radio or MTV in the late 90s or the 00s, there is a decent chance it's Josh playing on it lol. Evanescence, Offspring, Puddle of Mudd, Avril Lavigne... One I just found out recently was the New Radicals record including "You Get What You Give"
I think we just need a Josh Freese Drumeo session full stop! Be interesting to see him do "Josh Hears For The First Time" segment.... He's probably played on all the tracks!
He’s been one of the greatest additions to the band Amy has ever done. The current opener of their setlist “broken pieces shine”, has one of the best drums they ve done so far
Will is one of my favorite drummers, His energy is unmatched, you can feel he is enjoying playing everything. He has added some extra in this, classically done with finesse and not too noticeable.
One of the most entertaining drummers I've ever seen. They opened for MUSE and he was by far the best part of Evanescence's show! I love his showmanship and skill.
This channel deserves sooo much credit. I have developed such a deep appreciation for drumming & drummers. Before discovering it a couple years ago. I don’t think I ever really noticed a single thing about the drumming on a track apart from a solo or a full where everything else went silent. Now anytime I listen to 99/100 songs, I hear the intricacies of the drums more than anything else that I don’t even hear the lyrics most of the most. and now I’ve genuinely wanted tk become a drummer😂
This song is timeless. I still enjoy it like the day it was first released. I was just playing a bunch of Evanescence songs on guitar the other day. They are epic!
Awesome to see Will finally on Drumeo! ONE BEAST OF A DRUMMER! Can't wait for the next episodes and seeing what this magician can do with those drums! 🤘
Will is on my mount Rushmore of drummers, every band he sits behind he brings a level of dynamics and power that they have never had before and it changes the whole feel for the better. On top of that if you watch him live it's hard to take your eyes away from his playing as this dude knows how to put on a show!. I was lucky enough to get a few drum lessons from him around 10 years ago and was able to hang with him for a bit in Sydney when they came out for the synthesis tour. Super humble dude. Can't wait to see what else was recorded for this series.
As a casual listener that doesn't know anything about drumming, it's nice to listen to this song paying attention on the drums and seeing how great of a performer this guy is!
This song is mandatory in every one of my song request drum streams because it slaps like you owe it money. It’s fun as hell whether you play it as written or whether you want to go full death metal mode and overplay the shit out of it
I'm a guitarist, but I love to hear drummers talking about music, I so respect the level of professionalism of drummers and I love this song so much so it's great for me to listen to him talking about it! AWESOME!
Such a powerful song. Drums bring so much to that! Well done. Performing is so important for live music in my opinion too. Songs played live often require slightly different interpretations from how they are recorded. This guy gets it and has mastered it. Thanks Drumeo for this.
Fun fact - The original male vocalist role was supposed to be Josey Scott (In Saliva at the time) but his manager advised against it. Enter Paul McCoy from 12 Stones to take the role and BOOM!
Man, he explained the whole rap/bridge thing really succinctly. I was curious about it because I’ve seen some live clips where they leave the bridge out. Cool to see how the band’s relationship with the song has evolved!
Ohhhhh, this is soo good! Thank you for bringing this song back from my childhood memories!!! Awesome drum player! And you guys are doing amazing job, Drumeo! The quality of a picture is superb! Thank you!
I’ve had the pleasure of talking with will more than a few times, reason being we live incredibly close to each other on top of me seeing him at Rockville walking around. Such a sweet and down to earth guy, ON TOP of being an incredible drummer 🤘🤘
Will is a top-tier drummer, and in general an extremely well-prepared musician 🥁. On top of that, I had the honor of meeting him 3 times already, confirming my first impressions of him each and every time: an incredibly passionate artist who truly cares about his craft, about the fans, super lovely to talk to - and obviously very busy too (rightfully so); his curriculum speaks for itself! Super capable and great guy! Can't wait to see more material with him at Drumeo - REALLY hoping you did a "...hears for the first time", he'd surely crush it! 🤘🏼🔥
I've loved watching Will play going all the way back to him being Tommy Lee's solo project drummer! Watching him bash one cymbal with both sticks at the same time back then was like HOLY COW!
Everytime I listen to this awesome song it brings back a ton of childhood memories, also reminds me of one my best friends who took his own life in 2016. He was more fan of cumbia but there were 4 or 5 rock/hard rock/metal songs that he liked and Bring To Life was one of them. So, this song has a lot of meaning to me too. Amazing video! 🥹
Just saw him a few weeks ago in Vancouver. What a beast. His drum kit on this tour is crazy. Live he is even better then on the video, so much showmanship
First song I played on the drums and thought "ok I think I might be a drummer" 🎉 Also thanks for the beer and pizza Will ! Kuala Lumpur, Hilton Hotel, 2012, the night before the Evanescence gig ;)
Freese may have written these parts, and the guy is amazing, but Will brings power and speed to the table that packs so much energy in, that it feels like much more than the sum of its parts. Killer performance, and props to both drummers!
OMFG!!! Will Hunt in da house!!! This guy, omg, this guy was THE phoenix for Evanescence's music - I remember listening the "Evanescence" (self-titled) album and instantly I said to my wife "this new drummer is f***ing awesome" - He was so much groove and power... Saw him live last year, he f***ing kicks ass!!! He is like a modern day Mikkey Dee!
This song is still considered a classic for a reason, it’ll always be considered one of the best rock songs/general songs of the 2000s and Will absolutely crushed it here but I had no idea Josh Freese originally played on it so that’s just a testimony to just how versatile that dude’s repertoire is and it’s awesome

He's a beast 💪
This is one of those songs that instantly transports you to the past. It's insane how just listening to this awakes so many memories of my childhood in 2003-2005
1000% percent, simpler times for damn sure!
The Daredevil soundtrack was so much better than the movie!
This is one of the CDs what I've burned to my wife to get her into rock/metal in 2004(...along w/ Crucify My Heart from Lullacry - another great album from that era)
It almost wakes you up inside
I had no idea that Josh originally played the song. I can't believe how much stuff he's played on!
I was today years old when I found out that Freese was the drummer on that record
Same dude what a legend
Basically every record you listen, right? 😂
Any rock-adjacent song that was on the radio or MTV in the late 90s or the 00s, there is a decent chance it's Josh playing on it lol. Evanescence, Offspring, Puddle of Mudd, Avril Lavigne... One I just found out recently was the New Radicals record including "You Get What You Give"
a perfect circle too around this time
Can we get a Genius of Josh Freese video please? Dude's nonchalantly been a part of so many classic songs and bands
I think more like "The Excellence of Josh Freese". Since a lot of the parts he doesn't really write, just performs.
I think we just need a Josh Freese Drumeo session full stop! Be interesting to see him do "Josh Hears For The First Time" segment.... He's probably played on all the tracks!
@@stevewade2535give him a song he hasn’t played in years and see if he catches it
lol oh hes very chalantly part of things. we seek him out.
@@stevewade2535he’d have to play a 40s Swing song, otherwise he probably played on every other song 😂
Not only is he hitting hard, being so in the pocket but he also is bringing a lot of showmanship that really takes the performance to a new level.
That stick twirl at 3:38 breaks my mind, how does that piece of wood not fly off to Narnia
Reminded me of that "drummer at the wrong gig" video
I think it's one of those fake wiggle twirls
It feels magic, weirdly magic.
I WAS THINKING THE SAME THING THAT TWIRL WAS INSANE
i love this guy. his drumming on their selftitled is so creative and got me more into the fine little details of playing the drums
Oh my gosh right! That self titled is filled with such neat stuff. Really tidy drumming!
Will is a powerhouse of a drummer..Hits hard litterally.
Yeah!!! I saw him years ago from about three meters away… And he really hits hard!!
His drumming on Evanescence's self titled album is top class, such a great sounding drums record
He’s been one of the greatest additions to the band Amy has ever done. The current opener of their setlist “broken pieces shine”, has one of the best drums they ve done so far
I saw Evanescence a couple of years ago for the first time and I could barely take my eyes off him playing. 👏
same
Will is one of my favorite drummers, His energy is unmatched, you can feel he is enjoying playing everything. He has added some extra in this, classically done with finesse and not too noticeable.
One of the most entertaining drummers I've ever seen. They opened for MUSE and he was by far the best part of Evanescence's show! I love his showmanship and skill.
Josh freese is an absolute beast, He played in almost every successful record...
One of the most underrated drummers in the business! Amazing!
I never get tired to see this guy playing!!!❤❤❤
Will is amazing. The first time I saw him live he blew me away!
This channel deserves sooo much credit. I have developed such a deep appreciation for drumming & drummers. Before discovering it a couple years ago.

One of my favorite hard rock drummers today!
“fallen” one of the best album ever!
Will amazing technique
This song is timeless. I still enjoy it like the day it was first released. I was just playing a bunch of Evanescence songs on guitar the other day. They are epic!
Awesome to see Will finally on Drumeo! ONE BEAST OF A DRUMMER! Can't wait for the next episodes and seeing what this magician can do with those drums! 🤘
We need a full performance by Will Hunt play the best song of evanescence..
He is a phenomenal drummer!!!
lets suggest so, people deserve watch more performances from this guy.
this song will NEVER get old.
I can't wait to see these guys next year. Suicidal Tendencies, Evanesence and Metallica. What a line up. I'm pumped.
Will is on my mount Rushmore of drummers, every band he sits behind he brings a level of dynamics and power that they have never had before and it changes the whole feel for the better.

That performance hits a lot of nostalgia hearing this for the first time and buying the album. Awesome performance.
As a casual listener that doesn't know anything about drumming, it's nice to listen to this song paying attention on the drums and seeing how great of a performer this guy is!
Amazing recording by Freese and incredible performance by Will. Both great drummers!
This song is mandatory in every one of my song request drum streams because it slaps like you owe it money. It’s fun as hell whether you play it as written or whether you want to go full death metal mode and overplay the shit out of it
I'm a guitarist, but I love to hear drummers talking about music, I so respect the level of professionalism of drummers and I love this song so much so it's great for me to listen to him talking about it! AWESOME!
That was a really great performance. This guy slays.
one of the best drum sets passed in drumeo for sure! and what tune...! damm
this guy deserves his own Drumeo video series for his drumming and showman skills! and is a likeable cool guy
I won't believe how Will and the band in general sound so neat and precise until I was in the Evancesence live in Vancouver.
This song will live forever.
Awesome performance! Holding the hi-hat and hitting the splash... unique pattern. Well done!
I saw him on RiR, playing like drums owe he money. Dude has such an amazing presence! Love his energy!
I LOVE how he PLAYS
Will for me is one of the top 10 drummers in the world!!!
My boy Will! About time this guys gets some recognition for the work he’s done over the years. He’s literally a masterclass in awesomeness!
Still love this song. This was great.
this is so awesome, thank you for sharing! he's such a showman and it's so cool to watch him live.
Such a powerful song. Drums bring so much to that! Well done. Performing is so important for live music in my opinion too. Songs played live often require slightly different interpretations from how they are recorded. This guy gets it and has mastered it.
Thanks Drumeo for this.
Will is so explosive and even smooth in his playing. I saw him live in Itaky with Vasco Rossi and was amazing!
Saw him live recently in Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 with the full band, he’s a killer and the energy he brought was amazing!
I saw him live with Vasco Rossi. Brought a new level of energy and power to the songs. he is truly a great drummer.
I saw this guy playing live on music messe fair in germany. And he is killing it! He was playing with guitarist most famous songs. Thats was amazing
Finallyyyy, been waiting for years to see Evanescence content on Drumeo, great video
Please do more stuff with this guy 👏 he deserves it, he’s incredible and it’s always a pleasure to watch him playing.
Amazing performance as always!! You rock man! 🔥 Can’t wait to see you again here in Italy! We love you! 🤟
This is BIG drumming. Wide open and just BIG. Such a satisfying sound
Awesome to see Will Hunt on Drumeo! Will's drumming for the supergroup Dark New Day was a major inspiration of mine when I began drumming
Will is such a drummer! So creative and groovy with his works
Fun fact - The original male vocalist role was supposed to be Josey Scott (In Saliva at the time) but his manager advised against it.
Enter Paul McCoy from 12 Stones to take the role and BOOM!
Both our label mates @ Wind-up. We opened for Evanescence in 04.
Damn what could've been. Paul was absolutely the right choice though he killed it and doesn't get enough recognition for it imo.
Great consistent drumming. Nothing flashy but it fits and serve the song perfectly.
Man, he explained the whole rap/bridge thing really succinctly. I was curious about it because I’ve seen some live clips where they leave the bridge out. Cool to see how the band’s relationship with the song has evolved!
Ohhhhh, this is soo good! Thank you for bringing this song back from my childhood memories!!! Awesome drum player! And you guys are doing amazing job, Drumeo! The quality of a picture is superb! Thank you!
I’ve had the pleasure of talking with will more than a few times, reason being we live incredibly close to each other on top of me seeing him at Rockville walking around. Such a sweet and down to earth guy, ON TOP of being an incredible drummer 🤘🤘
Will has been my hero since 2007. He’s a beast drumming 😎
Awesome performance
My favorite drummer alive! I play for a Evanescence Cover and study this guy a lot
Will is a top-tier drummer, and in general an extremely well-prepared musician 🥁. On top of that, I had the honor of meeting him 3 times already, confirming my first impressions of him each and every time: an incredibly passionate artist who truly cares about his craft, about the fans, super lovely to talk to - and obviously very busy too (rightfully so); his curriculum speaks for itself!
Super capable and great guy! Can't wait to see more material with him at Drumeo - REALLY hoping you did a "...hears for the first time", he'd surely crush it! 🤘🏼🔥
Brandon and Crew nailing it on this one
Josh nailed the entire record
The best drummer I ever seen in live performance.
Energy!!!
Will Hunt ALWAYS rules...also, that kit sounds heavenly...
The kick pattern is really significant, but what blew me away this time was the sound of whole kit. Impressive work and impressive playing as well.
Saw this song performed live about a month ago. Will was very entertaining to watch on the drums!
I've loved watching Will play going all the way back to him being Tommy Lee's solo project drummer! Watching him bash one cymbal with both sticks at the same time back then was like HOLY COW!
Everytime I listen to this awesome song it brings back a ton of childhood memories, also reminds me of one my best friends who took his own life in 2016. He was more fan of cumbia but there were 4 or 5 rock/hard rock/metal songs that he liked and Bring To Life was one of them. So, this song has a lot of meaning to me too. Amazing video! 🥹
13 year old me got this album for Christmas and loved every song on it
Dude is hammering that kit. Badass
One of the best rock songs of the last 20 years. I know Amy didn’t like the rap bit but I think it’s a flawless song
Will Hunt 🖤
You guys keep bringing it with these series!
What a gorgeous snare
Just saw him a few weeks ago in Vancouver. What a beast. His drum kit on this tour is crazy. Live he is even better then on the video, so much showmanship
That was probably when this was filmed as Drumeo is located not far from Vancouver.
Will Hunt has played in many of the bands that are my favorites.
what a great drum sound, and that snare is sooo goodd sounding, really cool performance , bravo !!!!
Great performance👍
These drums are so fun to play!
First song I played on the drums and thought "ok I think I might be a drummer" 🎉
Also thanks for the beer and pizza Will ! Kuala Lumpur, Hilton Hotel, 2012, the night before the Evanescence gig ;)
Finally an Evanescence artist on drumeo
One of my favs from them
The part and the performance are truly brilliant.Thanks so much.
That fill after the bridge is gnarly
Freese may have written these parts, and the guy is amazing, but Will brings power and speed to the table that packs so much energy in, that it feels like much more than the sum of its parts. Killer performance, and props to both drummers!
Truly one of the best content producing channels on youtube. Keep it up guys. Basseo one day?
humble guy, much respect.
Will made it even better, he always performs it better than in the record
Will is one incredible drummer.
The Other Side is probably my quintessential Evanescence track with Will's drumming on it. Just fantastic.
Josh is a genius❤
Will is such a beast.
I wanna see some Dark New Day songs played by Will again.
THAT was a badass group man!
Still listen to “12 year silence” from front to back on the regular!
Flawless album
Flawless band
I second your request! lol
so cool! just saw Evanescence last week--they still rock hard!
OMFG!!! Will Hunt in da house!!! This guy, omg, this guy was THE phoenix for Evanescence's music - I remember listening the "Evanescence" (self-titled) album and instantly I said to my wife "this new drummer is f***ing awesome" - He was so much groove and power... Saw him live last year, he f***ing kicks ass!!! He is like a modern day Mikkey Dee!
It's obvious Will enjoys playing this song! Fun to watch him just go!
This song is still considered a classic for a reason, it’ll always be considered one of the best rock songs/general songs of the 2000s and Will absolutely crushed it here but I had no idea Josh Freese originally played on it so that’s just a testimony to just how versatile that dude’s repertoire is and it’s awesome
