Chris Hughes programmed most of the drums on “Everybody Wants to Rule the World.” They borrowed the snare drum sound from “Shout” and pitched it up. The hi-hat and shakers came from the LinnDrum. The kick drum sound came from the Fairlight CMI. Smith laid down a new bass line with the PPG Wave, and Orzabal and local session musician Neil Taylor laid down the electric and acoustic guitar parts.
Thanks for sharing your take on a way to interpret this song's rhythmic structure. That takes some skilled coordination to play those left-handed fills while maintaining that 6:4 pattern on the hi-hat ride - good job! The ride part you're playing is what a drum machine played. So, using a drumless song track that contained that drum machine part and other looping tracks, I took advantage to not play that 6:4 rhythm and instead employed the Purdie-Bonham-Porcaro shuffle groove which really moves the groove along rather nicely. Check out my cover on my channel. (I'd post the link here but YT may flag my comment as Spam).
I agree 1 drummer on you tube if you don’t stay within the groove, then that makes a bad drummer. No not true, some songs I’ll play like the artist others I’ll stay with in the groove but my fills will be different!
I've reacted to videos like you before. Nothing wrong testing your contrary ideas in forums like the chat here. Nothing wrong correcting yourself should you discover you were not initially correct as original thought. Your comment and then self correction illustrates your seriousness for the topic and music theory. You good my man

His click track makes a bass drum like sound. It’s getting in the way of hearing things properly, on our sad side.
Didn't sound right to me!
Actually listening to it a bit more it's actually very good! I stand corrected! 👍
