    Hard is always relative. It was very hard when I first learned it; I was maybe 14 at the time and could barely keep up with my right foot. As time goes on, what was hard becomes easy and just fun.

  • @MarkPoiesz

    Hey guys I dig the debate... the reality is that Dave tracked the drums on this tune and overdubbed toms on top of the basic groove. That's why it sounds so huge. When I started playing this song at around 14 or so, I didn't know that overdubbing existed, so I tried to get as close to the record as possible. Fast forward a few years... everyone who sees me do the intro this way loves it. So I keep playing it the way I did when I was a kid. Please check out my other videos too!!!

    Best cover on youtube. Done correctly as far as I can tell. Haven't read the legit score for this, but definitely correct.
    Only difference is either the recording equipment used or the actual snare drum is a little too high pitched. I believe Hawkin's used something closer to a field snare. Those flams just don't project enough. But it's not fault of the drummer. I love the enthusiasm. The fills after the pauses are done immaculately which is a sure sign of seasoned tallent.
