Thumbs up if you're watching this in 2021 😎
UPDATE: I just released a new DRUM LESSON PACK! -> bit.ly/CobusLessons. 5 lessons, 90 minutes, for 27 bucks. It will make you better at tuning drums, mixing drums, I'll show you my practice routine, my worst habits as a self-taught drummer, and teach you one of my favourite linear licks. Thanks for being here!
I watched it, in 2022 haha. The reason why is because I did this cover but had many problems with the copyright stuff a feel years ago lol
Oh my god I used to listen to this album basically everyday when I was ten! Thank you for reminding me it exists and for kicking it's ass.
Might wan to watch out using the word “ass” since he edited out “shit” in here lol
My only problem with this cover is that he's playing the censored audio track.
Yet he still killed it.
dude that was amazing!!!! don't listen to the haters here. this cover was just, all out sick! amazing job
David Nieves your comment deserves more likes👍
Dude, such power and energy, its amazing.
Such drums. Much power. Wow.
Moved Channel (Omfgzxlla) why
Do you people ever stop to think of how lucky we are that he even posts videos for us to enjoy? I don't understand why people must be so picky about how he plays or whether or not he sounds the same as he used to. Just sit back and enjoy it!
And Cobus I just want you to know that I always get excited to see a new video of yours. Thank you for letting us enjoy what you so clearly love doing.
It's nice to see how you're evolving as a drummer. In the Fuego series, it seems you have learned to restrain yourself where the song needs it and show off when the music allows room for it. The same creativity is there, but is much more appropriate to the overall groove of the music. You were always a great musician, and you have the mindset a professional
people who say this isnt the old cobus style it is still an amazingly creative cover of a very simple song with a lot of good ideas thrown in, especially on some fills. And he changed the lyrics at points like he normally would to make it more youtube friendly. Cobus is still the same Cobus and he is still amazing
Man that was freaking sick dude!!! keep it up man that was awesome...
Killer cover, man. Nice work!
Cobus ignore the hate comments, you are still the amasing drummer you always were and I am glad to be apart of the youtube community that got you from your church to this amazing studio! Living the new series, keep it up!
Ps Looking forward to meeting you this weekend!
great tune great job. nice one
This is the first and only song I ever got to play on a stage. How funny that someone as good as you are is covering it. Thanks, man. You are amazing.
0:40 I found the hidden mickey! Can you?
lmao i see it!!
neel I found 2 lol!
Your drumming is flawless cobus and everybody loves you and i will contiune to watch your videos as long as you keep making them!
But I do agree that your old stuff was brilliant, and these songs are just excellent.
I love when your done your song you are panting and i cant even follow your hands most of the time!
We dont need that all the time, but once in a while it be nice to see again!
2024 Anyone?
Perfect, absolutely perfect. Cobus, you have changed the musical lives of so many people including mine. Thank you...
"Cause every now and then I kick the living shit outta me!" Stop censoring our music.
go make your own video if it's a problem
Sure, let me just shit out $300 for recording equipment and I'll get it right up.
+Dylan Lawson get a job and do it instead of watching youtube
+David Hall Dude, I have a job. But I'm not going to blow my money on a camera and mic for my kit.
+Dylan Lawson then quit talkin trash
I agree that the fill @ 2.44 was very nice. Always good to see another Cobus cover
I think Cobus is a great drummer! I have noticed that a lot of people have been complaining about his choice of songs and camera angles and sound quality etc. It would be wise for Cobus to listen to the internet audience he has. Yes, he is doing what he loves, but he even said the only reason he is where he is is because of us. If he isn't careful and doesn't listen to what his followers are saying, he could end up in trouble. many artist have made the mistake of not listening to their fans...
bro i love that youre doing songs like this. songs you like to play. thats what people like to see, you enjoying yourself. keep the covers coming man!
I like that when you play it's just not 'the drums', you make the sons better but not overdo it by a drum solo and that is just amazing.
And I like your drum skillzz ofcourse...
Dude, i haven’t been able to drum for almost 2 years now because i had to sell my (first) kit. I loved playing this song! It’s such an energie boost watching you play it. You are awsome!
2:45 is a proper Cobus fill. Excellent, you're totally back on form with this performance
Wow Cobus I've been watching so many of your videos and only know have I bothered to search what laus deo semper means! It's so glad to know that you are a god-fearing Christian as well as an awesome drummer. To have those words on every single video of yours is really nice.
Is this a clean version? Wtf? I love this song and I love even more that you didn't over-do it. That's the difference between real musicians and posers. Thry're able to hold it back for the song's sake. Great cover Cobus.
You are just amazing, i'm a drummer since 7 years old, and you're videos help me to progress a lot, thank you very much :)
This video made me smile because he looked like he was enjoying himself so much :]
Great cover, keep it up!
I love him regardless. He is just progressing, changing. he is doing what he wants, not what we want. thats really good
cobus is just getting better...everyone says he should back to old but if you know what playing drums is about then you would know that drumming is about the groove and making people wanna listen...not about how fast you can play...learn about drumming guys...i bet the people who want him to go back cant even play half the stuff he does
You are an amazing drummer, and I have been a fan since the first videos, but it's your unique style and creativity that made you. If you give those things up, you will disappear into the mainstream masses so fast you won't know what happened. Let the beats flow from your heart, and rock on!!
I used to watch cobus and think that his covers were average just not very interesting, boy was I wrong! after playing drums for a year, I realize how much time and effort cobus HAS to put in these to make them this good! keep up the AWESOME work!! I like chasing the dream of being as good as cobus one day.
Man, I remember back when he was putting videos up from some warehouse or something, with cheap beginner Paiste cymbals, and now he's got endorsements, and some weird camera/trainset hybrid thing to get all kinds of cool camera angles.
You deserve every bit of too man. You really are an awesome drummer.
Clean, Precise, sharp, Best covers on youtube. Nuf said! RSA Represent!!
New to your channel. Your technique, style, and all out joy playing a fun song earned you a subscriber. Looking forward to watching more.
YES YES YES!!! this is what i've been waiting for in this series
the best drum cover productions on youtube bar none !! thumbs up
I'm an INSTANT FAN!!!!!!!!!!!! If I could ever play 1/8 as good as you I will be satified! Keep up the great work!
@spoondemon He has got a lot better. I didn't think much of Cobus until these videos came out and these are so much better. Well done to Cobus, he's earnt his worth.
I remember when I used to jam to this song ALL THE TIME! and now... I want to start jamming to it again! AWESOME, Cobus!
way to go! the 90s really needs more credit with an awesome tribute like this cobus!
okay guys these covers are still good. just because he doesnt do crazy fills like he used to doesnt mean the covers are bad. crazy fills dont make a good cover. as long as he has fun making these does it matter what he does?its his choice on how he decides to make these. i still like how he's doing these. nice job
he always looks so happy when he's behind the drums... its amazing... go Cobus
So much emotion and skill! This is the kind of drumming that I like to watch! Keep it up man this is great stuff.
your such a bro. its nice to see someone drum with emotion
to everyone who is complaining about Cobus using expensive cameras and making a big deal out of him not sounding like "his" drumming....SHUT UP! He has made it so far from where he started, he can record in an actual studio and use good equipment, who wouldn't want that??
Amazing job, Cobus! I dont care what the other people are saying, this is an AWESOME song and you did a very good job of covering it. :)
I love it!
Ignore the haters. Haters gon' hate. Your real fans still love your covers.
One of the best things about you as a drummer is that you look like you have so much fun when you play :)
did u guys ever think that maybe he was just a wee bit tired? come on all of these videos hes been posting up have been filmed within the span of 2 or 3 days! he's always played with passion regardless of the type of filming thats being done.
Wow you are the best drummer i have ever heard i hope one day you become famous because i would buy your album.
Your drum covers are amazing!! You always make the song better in all your covers!! Your my inspiration for play drums!
Rock on Cobus, carry on representing South Africa so well bru! Love your covers, especially the newer Metal stuff you've been doing! More please, if you have time that is :D
To people who are criticizing his music choices (previous uploads)
Seriously just LEAVE Cobus alone about it! It's his choices NOT yours so stop whining that " OH WHAT HAPPENED TO THE OLD COBUS?!?" If you were a true subscriber and fan you wouldn't care and accept what he's doing! Gosh just let him do what he wants NOT what you want sure a little requests here and there but don't get upset when he plays it the way it sounds! Love yah Cobus!
I'm so glad and happy he played and recorded the fuego series in Spain :D
i havent heard this song in a while. Thanks for bringing it back to my ears with your sick drumming Cobus!
Love the sound your kit produces, and the layout looks so smooth. Good stuff brother.
The first true Cobus cover from this series.
Well done.. Best cover artist on all of youtube...
Thanks for honoring the 90's tunes
i still love cobus. and for all you complaining about some sort of "selling out" he's doing need to think. if you were are drummer, and it's what you're really passionate about, it would be your dream to get to record in a real studio with awesome equipment too, so be happy for his success. But it does seem that some of you are kinda right about the fuego series. seems more like just covers than making it completely his own. but let the guy have fun. he'll have the fantastic stuff again
"It's no surprise to me I am my own worst enemy
Cuz every now and then I am my own worst enemy"
I love your style of censorship.
how is this a bad song? its catchy and he is having a good time playing it! I totally dig it cobus! rock on!!!
think u all need to stop complaining about his drumming. cuz from what i see and hear, hes an amazing drummer. no one cares about how much personalization or how much he sticks to the original beat. what they care about is that he can cover it. and make it sound rly good. the end.
everything is just so clean! he inspires me to drop the guitar and pick up drumming!
All great musicians go through the mainstream process.. Its just inevitable.. Oh well, i still love his perfection and keen skill when he plays. He is still an inspiration to me. Good job Cobus :P
This is such a good song. Lit. Brings back memories.
I was hoping this song would get covered eventually. Now it's been done!
WOW! your my hero. not only are you THE best drummer i have ever heard. but you are a Christian?! i expect you to be running for world leader soon?
I was in high school for this song too. Seen it covered so many times in by cover bands in dive bars in NY.
It was totally played out.
Until now.
I agree it wasn't a hard song. I agree it's not the most mind blowing Cobus ever. But... It's a classic being performed by an amazing talent and sometimes the original is so good it was the top modern rock song of 1999 and road the top of that billboard chart for three months. It's hard to make much improvement on that.
I dont get why ppl complain, cobus is epic, doesnt even matter what songs, just listen to the drumming.
new years resolution is to learn drums thanks to Cobus! :D
I like how this is a super simple song but he makes it awesome!
:D
is says in your profile that u r not a pro drummer i think its time u changed that cos your one of the best drummers i have ever seen u r a god to me and many others around the world and i think any band would b lucky to have you
"It kicks the living shit out of me" was needed for this lol. Great cover Cobus.
absolutely amazing! i truely hope you end up making a living off the drums because you seem like such a cool kid and you're incredible at the drums :)
This would be a great drum cover if it were anyone but Cobus.
Come on Cobus. I've seen your other videos. You are a beast and you paly with so much energy. It looks like you were not very motivated in this one.
Not saying this wasn't a good cover or anything cause it was great, but it didn't leave me in awe like many of your other covers did.
@LuckyLevi17 Cobus is using one of two methods there, either the sliding technique, which most people can do to some degree, or heel toe which is a lot harder. I just can't tell which one he uses there.
Ithought this was real classy, I liked it a whole bunch. AWESOME COBUS!
Im a professional drummer. Look its 1/2 the time I remark at what a truly talented drummer he is & the other 1/2 copying a few og his fills & phrasing & his cymbal tricks. He reminds me of the talemt level of Stuart Copeland or Simon Phillips, or a Mike Portnoy. Seriously , he is 1 of the best drummers Ive ever seen. Im 51 yrs old so Ive seen alot. Hail Cobus !! The Bringer of the Thunder"!!!#
after seeing any of your new videos, i go back and watch an old one(:
OMG! LIT! I haven't heard this song in so long!!!! Good job! :D
I love Cobus I really do but this is the first video I kinda don't just absoutley love it's just so over the top the beats in this ong a are simple and steady he seems to be all over the place. wahhhh
Okay no matter what anyone says about the song choice, 2:45 is amazing
Are you implying that the song choice was poor? Mate, lit were lit before lit was even lit...
either im just easy to surprise or every roll he does that combines the tom/snare and the kick is just epic.. could be both,.
I just seen the option to watch Cobus in 3D. My life is complete.
need to have your drum covers on itunes. sometimes the original just isn't enough, want to blast your covers in the car
to all u troll'ers whining about how he's not playing as full on as he used to, the kid's going places and doors are opening for him, to opportunities that most of us would probably never get in our lives. cant u just be happy for him?
This quite literally made my day!!! Keep the pop punk stuff coming :D
thats cuz every cover he plays is a song he loves and when he drums to them he has the time of his life
I don't understand people, i see alot of comments about how people think that he doesn't play as "much" as he used to. I mean come on people everything that has happend is that he don't overplay the songs, i mean that's awesome and all but i really think that this is more of a song cover and less of a drum solo. But that's just my opinion. And Btw the fill at 2.45 is awesome! can't help but think about Mike Johnstons little warmup exercise, great job Cobus!
in a lighter note, this song brings back memories...this is the cover for the kids who grew up in the 90's
you deserve much more subscribers than you already have.
Sure, the new stuff is a little simpler, but Cobus does it just like butter.
@Volentry I personally preferred his old videos because he was basically writing his own awesome drum part to an already awesome. That takes talent as a musician.
Another fantastic job, way to go man
Absolutely murdered those licks
@98drummermaster98 From the look of the beaters, I think he's using Pearl Eliminator Powershifters. My guess is the chain drive. They're amazing pedals, fully customizable, which makes a lot of sense for Cobus ^_^ Hope that helped!
2:05 i luv that fill u did ir went so well with the beat of the song
@FrenchHeavyMetal
it's not his studio. it's a studio that was kind enough to bring him ALL THE WAY TO SPAIN to let him film the fuego series and a music video.
