Doctor: You have only 5 minutes left to live, so I don't think you won't be able to listen to your favourite Dream Theater song.
Me: As a matter of fact, I can.
Lmao
🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂👍🤘🤘🤘😂😂🤣
Hahahahahahaha
I CANT STOP LAUGHING :)
With 6 seconds to spare!
You deserve a Grammy...but FASTER!
I read "he deserved a _granny_ "😂
@@Michael_Michaels but FASTER
Was this intentional? DT just won a Grammy
Holy ........@#$$@%😬😬😬🤘🤘🤘🤘
Grammys is a joke, nowadays it's a blessing if you're not in it lmao
You look like Jesus...but FASTER!
@MateconMote fana de DT y metalero?? ya con estar con milei me caias bien, ahora me caes mejor! xD
jesus is a black man
🤣
metalero y libertario, todo lo que esta bien!
libertario y metalero, pero no cualquier metalero!! vamos cheee!!!
Wow! James Labrie’s vocals were so clean. I didn’t imagine that would be possible at this tempo!
😂😅
😅😂
The Silent Man
Fun fact: This is how Mangini practices, by speeding everything up so he can play it confidently at normal speed
Hum... Wrong. He practices at faster tempos to get used to the idea that when he's really tired songs seems to be faster than they really are.
Yeah, like his 110% speed The Alien practice
@@TheTheaterdreamer that's what he said man... having to reread this shit to make sure i'm not retarded.
I don't think this is a good idea for everyone tho. I work in a studio, and some guitarists like to practice the songs faster because they think it will make them more confident at playing the real tempo. What actually happens is they come in to record the tracks, and then suddenly they always play ahead of the drums because they're used to the song going faster, resulting in a way less tight performance than they would deliver if they just practiced the goddamn song in the right tempo.
Mike M is obviously not a normal musician tho.
I practice at faster speeds and use bad/uneven sticks. It’s like practicing kicking with ankle weights. Once you take the weights off you feel like you’re flying
The wife and kids prefer this version as the song is over a lot sooner…
So I played it at half speed even louder
Nice transition from hamster years to dog years. 😝🤪
How in the world can anyone hate this song? It’s a masterpiece….
@@Biaxident129 Well it's not a song and it sounds like a drummer's fever dream nightmare.
I was waiting for 3:10 and nailed it PERFECTLY god damn man :-D
dude thank you so much!!
Holy crap its Hoot. Say the thing about the stuff that you do for the players in the game. You know.
Like Dirk blast
@@66Samus check out assassin muse it has a similar beat
This part is insane
This song is already insanely difficult. Now playing it faster? And THAT MUCH faster?! You're an utter BEAST!
playing it faster only makes it easier to play by feel
dunno samus' method, but if he's playing by feel and not counting every single bar, faster is easier
having discipline and playing slow while retaining a sense of time is the hard part
@@kahwigulum My experience forces me to disagree, but I think I get your point. :)
...when DT's legendary song with like 120 time signature changes just isn't quite challenging enough... lmao!
It’s really not tho tbh
@@BIGDADDYBALLZ420 ok go play it on drums and show us a flawless version of this. were waiting :)
@@Tac-0don't underestimate a man's power simply because you don't know him. he might do it
@@Timewalker13 i want him to prove me wrong! More music to the world! But im pretty sure he'll disappoint.
@@Tac-0 I kind of agree with him, the difficulty in the song really comes from memorizing the time changes -- MP's parts aren't the most technically demanding.
Can we just appreciate not only the drumming is amazing, but also Samus is 90% of the way to turning into Cousin It?
True
When you work from home playing metal, you can grow three beards and have your hair down to your ass for all anyone cares
22% of the way, I think
@@davidrustylouis6818 Um, scuse me, but it's clearly 18%. You guys aren't good at math like me. 😝
The coolest drum section of this track just gets even cooler when played at ludicrous speed (2:54 - 3:19)
3:05 when the all you can eat buffet is about to close
louhalsdhlaojkdolahdlskahdjhsl this is a fickung good comment
🤣🤣🤣
When you've heard a song so many times, but you're trying to get to the third interlude, and you don't remember how it sounds... So you have to think about the whole song to get there
Says its one of the most challenging videos he ever filmed. only "took 3 attempts to nail in a single take".
Meanwhile me taking well over ten attempts to "nail" Enter Sandman lol
You're an absolutely insane drummer! Keep on slaying those drums 🤘🤘
Keep it up and you'll be playing dance of eternity in no time
Practice more
for what it's worth, the recording of enter sandman was cut together from about 50 takes, so you're doing better than Lars
@@geartweaker8518 rofl, Lars is such a meme. Love him, tho. But imagine needing 50 takes for that song xD
Him: 3 attempts to nail it.
Me: Playing 40 years. Made 14 mistakes listening to him play it.
THIS IS GOLD! THANKS FOR YOUR EFFORT MAN!
man, thank YOU!!!
I still regularly come back to this video every now and then, it's somewhat hypnotizing, it's weird that it doesn't have more views!
If Mike Portnoy never mentions this, we riot. Jesus dude, amazing! 👏 🔥
rest easy, my friend Mike wont... ever
I still remember when Mike reacted to Cameron Fleury playing TDoE but like Lars Ulrich and he was cracking up! 😂😂😂😂😂
@@FVD u have a link for that?
Imagine being in the room with him ... you'll be listening to just cymbals ... and silent plastic sounds from the electric roland kit 🤣🤣🤣
That's pearl electric kit btw. But i can't imagine being in the room with him too🤣
Fpp fpp fpp fpp KKSHHH KSHHH KSH thpp thppp
The sound they make always reminds me of hitting pots with a wooden spoon as a kid
@@Metal-Possum why do you even care, it’s just drums
.. and farts and burps..!? 😂😜🤣🤣
Your face at 0:52 and 3:10 both scream to me an internal realization of "Oh god there's still more to play?" lol
Not gonna lie, i checked at least 3 times if i had the video sped up... Holy fucking shit this went hard
Thank you so much for doing this as a video. Loved it every time you did it on live stream. That ending though....hahahaha \GHOGF/
The ending was amazing, i was most impressed with his seemless transition in that old-timey ragtime feel section though.
1:30 “Yeahhh the double rideee”
This is probably my favorite instrumental of all time, and you just made it even more amazing. 🤯 🔥
Awesome man, I like your spirit when playing! Music is fun, and you’ re doing it in the right way!
That ohhhhhhhshit moment at 3 minutes lmao. that was amazing man, congrats on playing the new shortest dream theater song out there!
The best news is that he was so close to the speed of light that we all only aged 3 seconds. There's some fountain of youth for ya. 🤪
It's funny.. found this guy a good while back as a reaction RUclips guy.. then I found his videos of his drumming.. I'VE SAID THIS BEFORE!! HIS TIMING IS SO SPOT ON!! I can't give enough love for this guys talents. Make sure you keep up on the blast beats my brother!! LOVE
thank you SO much man
I could do this, but I don't like to show off. 😝
Incredible bro!!! Bravo!!!!!!
The most insane on youtube! big hug from Brazil , Amazon .. you are awesome !!
holy shit dude - that 3min mark section was absolutely bananas and TIGHT AF. Well done my Winnipeg brother!
Absolutely - that roll/hi-hat pattern was turned up to a blast , and I was living for it.
It kind of reminded me of some stuff The Dillinger Escape Plan used to play.
My father could do that uphill in the snow both ways barefoot with his eyes closed and both hands tied behind his back. But then dad is old school where everything was tiptoe through the tulips. 🤪
....when you and your band are in the mood for playing technical masterpiece but you had some Taco Bell and laxatives
The track is a complicated song at normal time Jesus Christ well done
You yelling at the end just made clear how difficult it was! Great cover!
Well done, Sam :) Pure perfection of drumming \m/
Excellent Samus, absouley nailed It I would imagine Mike Portnoy seeing that he would been laughing and be impressed with this video OHHHHHHHHHH YUUUUUUURRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!
Doc: it's bad, you better stop playing
Samus:
The Scream at the end cracked me up 😂...you are killer dude!
Absolute gold man! Lord of the Baheeeez, delivering Cavs 5% faster 🎩👌🤘
Played to perfection. Love every second of it!
Great job!
This is awesome! Respect
Truly inspiring Samus, sick playing...Cav blown.....now I'm off to practice, SEX!
The number of likes on this is correct, don't mess it up
That was oddly satisfying. I loved how that double bass sounded.
Not to be confused with evenly satisfying. 😝🤪😜
This is insane, great job dude🤟🏼
My favorite video of yours great job
Just sent this to Mike. Hopefully it'll issue an official challenge
Dam, that's thoroughly impressive man. Good freakin job.
Little known fact: I taught him everything he knows. In fact, so little known even he is unaware. 😝
It COMPLETELY changes the feeling... fucking awesome math marvel that music is
Yay! Great job brother!
To play this song at tempo is one thing, to play it at the speed that Samus just did is godly
Well, this gives me some motivation to give the original a go, wich I previously considered to be a level to high for me, but after watching this ... mate, that was just wow!
One of my favorite drummers and you made it look just so easy!
You are a beast !!! love it !! The best version ever ! merci .😉
Not even in Dream theater's shortest concerts I've watched playing this fast! But, curiously, it perfectly matches your regular playing speed!
You are going so fast that sometimes in some angles it looks speed up .. that's when you know you reached a new peak, you are so fast cameras think you are cheating... Great cover Samus, now how about Bleed but faster?
🤜🏽🤛🏽🤘🏼🤘🏼
I couldn't even watch it as good as he played it.
He’ll bleed after that for sure …
Hemorrhage?
This sounds so good
Great job man
Samus literally obliterated this song, good job my friend, I've never seen a person who plays this song at that speed 😎🤘
This was really helpful. I watched this before listening to the original and now I can make more sense out of the drum parts.
Loved it. Brilliant stuff!!!!
When counting multiple time signature isn't enough. So happy with the outcome of this version! Much love from the Philippines!
I’m not even going to comment about how you’ve nailed the timing of every single beat, or how amazing it is that you know all 120 time changes, or how impressive it is that you can play all of this - but faster. In fact, I’m not going to comment at all 🤘😋
Wait a minute……….
@@witewolfmusic1654 😆
I'm with you. I totally have nothing to say or add or contribute or deny or agree with or summarize. Nope! Not gonna do it. Got nothing to say whatsoever. Nothing. Nada, Not a single word will I utter. Not even gonna say how good it was or that it appeared flawless and that his technique is superb. I refuse to fall into that trap like others do. I will not be goaded, poked or prodded into being like everyone else who just ramble on and on and on and on and on and, well, anyway, I am my own man and will not be tempted. 😬
@@tortillasarenotbiceps7622 staying strong brother, that’s what I like to see!
Why would you do this to yourself Samus!? Now you’re gonna have to do this live quite a bit I imagine 😂🤣 we love you!
apparently this started off as something he did on his live streams and now has finally made it a video!! I only wish I saw him doing it on stream! ahha!
He didn't do it to himself. Cocaine did it to him. 😝🤪😜
Nice work, clean tones...
It’s a damn good I didn’t take that speed pill before I watched this. I decided half way through to pause it, smoke a joint and then thankfully, that brought it back to normal speed.
Holy hell !!!
If you listen this 0,75 it sounds like the normal song
Mike Portnoy would be so proud
he couldn't even play it this fast and accurate lol
Thank you for showing top down view of the snare/hihat section during the 2:55 shred i always loved this drum part.
Great touch !
Samus Portnoy version 2.22
Great!!! Now, let's challenge MANGINI to play it ... FASTER! (than this...and then ping pong this challenge to and fro forever...that would be a TRUE Dance of Eternity!)
After seeing Mangini do the following with ease, he could do it in his sleep. 😂 - MikeMangini The Alien Tour Prep. ruclips.net/video/EFx19PMxGTc/видео.html
I do not think Mangini would have any problems with that, guy is inhuman
66Samus found the pill from Limitless and left all us mortals behind 😂
Your socks... You've nailed with your image :D. Great job with drums!!!!
i mean this song is so great it’s kind of a shame to change its tempo, still unbelievable performance
Look... I know it was painful my son... But look at it this way... When you are old and feeble and can no longer do that kind of thing.... You will look back at this time And wish you could. Lol
Can't say that I particularly like the song at this speed, but hats off to you for playing it like that, and really clean to boot. Very impressive!
The scream at the end encapsulates my thoughts exactly. Awesome!!
dude... you're crazy. great job!
That was amazing and so much fun!
WOW, ITS AMAZING,DUDE!!!!
Chills, man. Great work
--> 3:18 the best part, the expression of "I made it!" ..hahah
I'm laughing more than I should. This is amazing, man! 🤣
Hahaha dude, you got that look on your face like you don't want to do this.
Fantastic !
ha! no shit! i came here from metal injection off a random facebook feed.. good for you for getting exposure! ive been watching randomly on and off for the last year. happy to see you getting some exposure mainstream. also, i came for the 2:54 mark and YEP didn't walk away displeased... fucking beast.
Absolute crazy, great job
Absolutely stunning sir. You did very well
That was f**kin awesome brother
I wish there was more drummers like you around my neck of the woods! Keep up the excellent work!
Samus killing it on the drums as usual. Great vid man.
bro you killed it you looked so comfortable the whole time youre a legend
incredible bro. great work !
Dude…. That was awesome 👏
best thing I've seen on RUclips in a long time
Awesome socks. Nice playing, too.
Been playing drums all my life. THIS is incredible the accuracy at speed is amazing.
BROOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! I was hurting in a few of those parts, I know that song and tries to keep up at speed....NO SIR.. thats gonna take my old ass a 'minute' to get ready for!!! Damn fine job!!!
O.M.G. This is extraordinary....awesome job Sir!!! I am just sitting here going no way, as I used to count it out at Portnoy's speed, and I just couldn't do it with you killing it! Nice job!
Yeah!😃 Enjoying watching this with one twin on each knee trying to keep up. Well done!
you are a legend boet..Love it....
This made hella smile! Great job🤘
