'Everybody Wants to Rule the World' - Tears For Fears (Drum Cover)

My take on a great song by Tears for Fears.
In black & white so you know it's arty.
Please try to ignore the fact that i look surprised every time I hit the snare.
Recorded by Finn Lomax @ Summerhouse Studios, Ealing.

Wow all I can is simple yet difficult at the same time, you’ve taken this song to another level, when playing this song I use your version on how to play it, the original is actually easy, but the way you effortlessly flow through it is just beautiful. Best version out there.

Lay person here, I peruse a lot of drum covers and it seems many have a hard time mixing live drums to the music. Your mix is damn near perfect!

[@66meikou]

For such an iconic song that didn't have an actual drummer, this is an enigma wrapped up in a riddle.
Back when this was released, and listening to it in the car, it just seemed an off time beat. Fast forward 20 odd years and it sounds like its a triplet pattern.
You seem to be playing triplets yes?

[@edbroaddrums]

playing triplets but they are accented every 2 beats so they create a cross rhythm

[@DadBodDrumming]

Awesome cover!
