Another Classic Rock Hit for you - Now is everything all right? One wonders... THE SONG - "All Right Now", by the English rock band Free, was written by their lead singer Paul Rodgers and bassist / pianist Andy Fraser. It was the third track on side two of their third studio album 'Fire and Water'. It was recorded in January 1970 in London at Trident Studios and Island Studios and released as a single on May 15, 1970 ahead of the album release on June 26, 1970. "All Right Now" was a worldwide hit landing in the top ten on the charts of many countries. It entered the Billboard Hot 100 chart at #96 on Aug 15, 1970, peaked at #4 on Oct 17, 1970 after 10 weeks and was last seen at #22 on Nov 28, 1970. In the UK, it reached #2. The album was also a top 20 hit reaching #17 of the Billboard 200 on Oct 31, 1970. Unfortunately "All Right Now" was Free's only real hit. Despite several albums and a number of singles that found favor with fans, their next best charting single was "The Stealer" which reached #49 on the Billboard Hot 100 on Jan 2, 1971. This placed Free on the One-Hit Wonder list, a fact that the band took in their stride while their live shows remained very popular. In an interview with Carl Wiser of SongFacts, drummer Simon Kirke said, "Even though it elevated Free into the big leagues, it became a bit of an albatross because we couldn't follow it. It became a huge hit all around the world, only because we wanted to have something that people could dance to, but then, of course, we had to follow it up, and Island Records were desperate for us to follow it up. Really it was just a one-off for us, and when the follow-up..."The Stealer"- and the album that followed ('Highway') didn't do very well, we took it to heart and the band broke up. So, in an indirect way, "All Right Now" was not very good for the band, I have to say. But, by the same token, it's been such a durable song. I play it in my solo shows." The song tells the story of a guy picking up a random girl. That wasn't actually the origin though. Simon Kirke continued, "It was born from a bad gig. Free never really had any uptempo songs. We were a bit of a stoner band. Up in Durham, which is in the north of England, we finished the set and walked off. By the time we left the stage, the applause had died down. That's awful, you know, to leave the stage and the applause has already gone. And we had to walk through the crowd to get to the dressing room. "We got back to the dressing room and the general air in the band was, "We need a song that people can dance to." That was really the only criteria that was put forward for this song, "All Right Now." And I believe it was Andy Fraser sort of bopping around the dressing room saying, "It's all right now," and that was it. Then over the next couple of months, Paul Rodgers and Andy Fraser sat down and fleshed it out and wrote it." Kirke had a slightly different recollection on another occasion when he said, "All of sudden, inspiration struck (bass player Andy) Fraser, and he started bopping around singing ALL RIGHT NOW... He sat down and wrote it right there in the dressing room. It couldn't have taken more than 10 minutes." Fraser had his own version. In 2012 he told 'Mojo' magazine, "The idea for "All Right Now" came about on a rainy Tuesday night in some godsforsaken minor city - I can't remember where. We were playing a college that could have held 2,000 but had something like 30 people out of their heads on Mandrax bumping into each other in front of us. They didn't notice when we came on or when we went off. Afterwards there was that horrible silence in the dressing room. To break the intensity, I started singing, 'All right now…come on baby, all right now.' As if to say, Hey, tomorrow's another day. Everyone else started tapping along. That riff was me trying to do my Pete Townshend." THE DRUM COVER - So, was Sina all right now or not? You don't really need me to answer that question! HEADS UP DEPT: I am reliably informed that next week will bring us something unusual and not to be missed. That's all my busy little researcher will tell me. So, join me next week and we'll all find out together! Cheers!
I'm a little surprised -- Free's "Fire and Water" got a lot of airplay where I was living at the time. It was the title song from the same album that included "All Right Now". I guess it never became a certified "hit" so the "wonder" count remained at one...
Sina, Tris, Lonnie - You're all very welcome and thanks for the comments and kind words. Donald - Thanks for your comment. I have a feeling that the "Fire and Water" single may not have charted because the album did so well. Sometimes album sales "dilute" the singles sales, sometimes it's the other way around. Maybe it depends on the release dates or how the listeners came to know the songs. If I owned the album, I wouldn't go out and buy a single. Clearly though, "All Right Now" drove an amazing amount of singles sales. Sometimes Free did better in the UK. "Wishing Well", from their final album 'Heartbreaker' made it to #7 on UK singles. It didn't chart in the US. Free had three top ten albums in the UK. 'Heartbreaker' reached #9 but only #47 in the US. So, if you were in the UK, Free were not a "one-hit-wonder" and if you were in the US, they were!
Miss Sina, I know I have said this before but it bears repeating. The songs that you cover sound so much more rich than they were on the radio. You bring the drums upfront already and to add the Bass more prominently on occasion would make it even better. That Sina Sparkle I mentioned before in previous posts is the realization of the Drums coming to the fore of the songs and they sound better to our ears. I'd rather listen to your covers of songs than the originals. You've spoiled us subscribers that way. I say let's enrich the covers and truly make it the Sina Style! Agree?
Music is the air in her lungs, the blood in her veins, the sparkle in her eyes, the beat in her heart and the fire in her soul. You are an inspiration young lady! Never disappointed.
Driving around playing this and Many more like it October - ?, 1973 in a 68 AMC 4-door Ambassador pushing all the 12 watts I could get through the Am/Fm multiplex Stock stereo in Phoenix, AZ on Central Ave. Three months before that I was finishing 3 years in the ARMY. This was one of those songs that just made you feel Good back then and still does. Very Nice. You and all who help you, You Guys ROCK!
Probably because she doesn't mess with the songs, trying to reinvent or reinterpret the mood or feeling. She accentuates the original feeling, sometimes mirroring the original drummers and sometimes tweaking it, but her perfection and love for the music is her personal stamp of approval. Watching her play is hypnotic ... she's got the music in her and, simultaneously, she's in(to) the music, and the result is a performance at least on par with the original. She shines exactly because she doesn't try to outshine the original ... it's called respect and because of that respect, it demands that she reproduce the original effort. Ultimately, the songs are a vehicle; she's not the driver in the vehicle, she's outside looking in, from the future into the past.
If ever there as an exponent of less is more ..... Sina is it. On the face of it a simple track for both drums and guitar .....that is of course until you try and play it .... Sina nails it once again! A joy to watch !
Sina nails these songs because she is a real drummer playing real music on real instruments. As she told us all so many times, that is what she likes. Great song! Thanks for sharing
SINA Doering nailed this classic rock song her drums are pure perfection, she is an incredibly talented drummer and musician rock on young lady rock on 👏👍👏👍❤️
Man did this cover take me back. Way back! This is one of the very first songs I learned to play with my first real band. I started playing around the late 60s but a actual band not til 1971. Thanks again Sina for not only allowing us the privilege of watching your amazing talent but for your choices in music and for waking up so many memories for so many people. You have no idea of the effects you have on all your dedicated fans. Love you girl and thank you.
This video marks a milestone for me: It is the first Sina performance with which I was able to play along on my own drum kit. After watching many, many of her covers, this is the first song with which I am quite familiar and, let's face it, is really simple to play. I enjoyed matching Sina's moves, especially the cymbal hits. I still need a lot of work on my bass drum but doing the fills with her was great fun. Thanks, Sina, for being my "teacher" for a day.
Hello Sina. It's great that you've reached for the classics. It was and will remain my favorite piece of Free. You play very well. Thank you. Greetings from Poland.
I think you almost have covered 80% of my most liked Classic Rock tunes from early 60s 70s 80s 90s i can put you on autoplay and listen all day and you're so good its often very hard to tell the diffrence in you and the original Drummer. I play Guitar im 57 years old i lived through these days of Rock been to many concerts from several bands including this one from Free, BadCo, Paul rodgers, Rush, Deep purple, Nirvana, Rolling Stones, Foreigner, Van halen, Cheap trick, Genises, thats about half of ones ive seen the most. Sina you ROCK Girl !!!!
Wow, wie die Zeit vergeht....Heute vor 6 Jahren hast du deine Reise in die Welt der Musik begonnen....Vor 3 Jahren wurde ich durch dein Cover von "Jump" zu einem Fan von dir. Ich glaube, keiner von euch hätte damals auch nur im Traum daran gedacht, wie sich deine Reise entwickelt. Heute, nach 6 Jahren , bist Du dank deiner Ausdauer, deiner Disziplin und deinem schier unglaublichen Talent eine der welotbesten Drummer geworden. Ich persönlich glaube ja, dass die Götter der Musikwelt dir nicht nur einen Becher oder Krug voll Talent gegeben haben, sondern dich einfach im großen Talentpool schwimmen ließen. Ich wünsche dir alles erdenklich Gute und eine Riesenpertion Glück auf deiner weiteren Reise. Bewahre dir für die weitere Zukunft nicht nur dein Talent, sondern auch dein großes Einfühlvermögen in die Musik. Du hast sie nicht nur im Blut, sondern auch und vor allem in deinem Herzen und deiner Seele. Viele liebe Grüße auch an Milena, Mike und deine Mom, und deinem ganzen Team, das dich unterstützt. Auch Euch allen können wir nicht genug danken. Viele liebe Grüße, die Lady
My Lady Sina doing another brilliant performance! I will gladly say it the 1M time, this young lady is my number favourite drummer in my little world for those who disagree!
I love the way YOU play the drums Sina. I like the prominent upfront sound of the drums and the way you Sina-style your covers, it may not be much but enough to make it your own. Your dad does an impeccable job of mixing and editing your videos and I have said that from the beginning. The answer to your question, Yes I have been hearing a difference and I love it! So please feel free to update and make it the Sina/Mike style of drum covers.
Wow another Sina masterpiece! You absolutely nailed this song. You’ve opened my eyes to the beauty of the drums as an instrument. It’s like I’m hearing all the songs I loved in the 60’s and 70’s from a totally new perspective, where it’s the drums that are the heart of the music. You are amazing!
Exactly! I couldn’t agree more. Sina’s post on what makes Ringo a great drummer made me realize the appeal of music in the 60s and 70s to me is the drumming. Another great Sina cover of hers is Radar Love. There’s a mighty heart in this person. Best!
Great, SINA. And again a look back to the seventies, where the music was still done by hand. If I imagine what it must have been to work at that time to produce an LP, unbelievable. Nevertheless or because of that the seventies were and are so valuable. Thank God there is SINA, who shows us this precious time again and again. Many thanks for that and thank you to everyone involved. It feels so good. Super gemacht, SINA. Und wieder ein Blick zurück in die siebziger Jahre, wo die Musik noch mit der Hand gemacht wurde. Wenn ich mir vorstelle, was das damals für eine Arbeit gewesen sein mußte, eine LP herzustellen, unglaublich. Trotzdem oder gerade deswegen waren und sind die siebziger Jahre so wertvoll. Gott sei Dank gibt es SINA, die uns diese wertvolle Zeit immer mal wieder vor Augen führt. Vielen lieben Dank dafür und vielen Dank an alle Beteiligten. Es tut so gut.
It is Friday afternoon here in Canada, the work week is done and I have just watched Sina do another amazing drum cover of an older classic rock song. Yes it's "All right Now".
Hello Sina, I was ten years old when this song was released. I believe you have added something special to this rock classic. Thank you again, as always a pleasure to see and hear you hone your craft.
I do. She's kinda cute, or cute enough, anyway, selects good music to cover that hits a certain demographic...mine....and plays the eff out of 'em. It's like listening to the original, almost. I keep looking for something fake, but there isn't any....she's truly amazing.
What a fine drummer and musician you are. I've been watching your covers for about 2 years now and I not only see improvement; I see close to perfection. I too love to play these old rock songs now on one of my kits and played almost all of them live in the late 60's-70's. You are a much better drummer than I am and I wish you luck in all you do, especially music.
Another superb cover by the Sina team. I wasn't into this style of music back when it was first popular, but now that I am older, I find myself really enjoying it. A big part of the reason for that is your efforts to bring this music to a new life, Sina. All I can say is: Vielen, vielen Dank!
Sina, one of the things I love about watching your videos is the various camera angles that show all of what you're doing. Truly appreciate that, and as always, you are simply awesome, wow, what a talent!
Another classic brought into today and made a bit stronger with some magic mixing. I like the update. You make these classics stronger by the way You interpret them and how your Dad (The Man) mixes them. You two are definitely all right, now make more music.
Thank you Sina! Not the flowery praise of others or a gem of english literery composition, Just a simple but heartfelt thank you for making my day better every time you play.
sina is awesome she is 20 even thow she looks alot younger .she has alot of talent and can play other instruments as well as her friends .they have all gone to music school and work very hard to give us many great songs . please do me a favor and if u give other famous people comments let them know how much u also injoy sina-drums@thegirlsgotgroove so we can help get her noticed and bring all her talent to another level.thanks america would be so much better with a generation full of people as great as sina and her friends .and if money is tight at least we can each support her by telling everyone how much you enjoy sina and her music also by sending her link to other favorite bands we like so they can give a listen ,also to 3 of ur friends so we can get sinas followers trippled sina-drums@thegirlsgotgroove to other celeberties who may like to enjoy what she shares with us everyday and also how much enjoyment we could get from seeing her play with someone like your favorite band ..now wouldent that take ur breath away ? ...btw sina has 343 youtube videos and 832k subscribers thank you for your support and adds i know she appreaciate it .thank you another sina fan jerry
Its All right now! back in the day the recordings were often muddy. and difficult at time to tell what was happening. my band used to spend a lot of time trying to sort out lyrics and guitar and drum parts. wore out a lot of 45s . I like what you do and i learn a lot listening and watching you play, stuff we used to play. thanks
Ive patiently been waiting for Sinas cover of this song. I love the passion Simon Kirke put into his playing. Sina more than covered it, she killed it! A very nice tibute to one of my favorites. Thanks for sharing your time and talent.
I could almost see Paul Kossoff to your left giving you the nod of approval! S. Kirk drums just had that sound that hit home like no one else. Hope he watches this. From Smokin' to Radar Love...Nice Sina... keep them coming
HELL YESSS!!!!!!!!!!!! an absolute favorite! i went back and forth with the original and, damn, i can't hear a difference other than modern audio being crisper, and their fadeout. i cant even remember how many times i have sung this in the car!! Whhooooo!!!
Wow, Sina, this is just total coolness! One of the greatest rock anthems of its era, maybe even of all time. It's a pretty simple groove, of course, but you played it with the power and precision we've come to expect from you. As one of several who have been mentioning it for inclusion on your list, I say: thank you! Honestly, I half expected that if you did it at all you'd do it as a collaboration rather than a drum cover, but I imagine it would be tough to find a singer who could do justice to Paul Rodgers' iconic vocals. So we get the best of both worlds, Sina + Paul!
Donald Boettger great comment👍If you like “Free” myself and three other people on RUclips from all different parts of the planet just got together and done a cover of “Fire and Water” maybe I should hit up the singer and see if he would like to have a go at this one as well👍hope you have a look and let me know what you think👌and I hope you have a great weekend 😎👍
Not only are you a precision drummer you’re a great performer. You play with such feeling. As a drummer myself I appreciate your passion. You’re awesome
Dear Sina, Great job! You really hit the groove. Great timing. I especially appreciate that you don't add or embellish the fills and play it true to the original. And that is the best way to cover and the hardest thing to do. Most drummers want to tweek it as if they are making it theirs. It is never better than the original. You must spend quite a lot of time to get it just right. Congratulations, you have a bright future in percussion should you choose to continue. Best wishes, 50 years and counting on traps
WOW ... FANTASTIC JOB Sina, and I have always loved that song ... especially the way Paul Rodgers sings it, I've heard others sing "Alright Now" but Paul Rodgers does it best, and why wouldn't he... he wrote it. Keep up with the Classic Rock songs Sina ... it's was and still is the Best music still going the and now!
Old recordings are muffled and with the equipment you have and the talent and the skill I think you do great things with old songs thank you Sina I love your work
Great job once again! I always say, when you see a musician smile they love what they do and the music is better fir it, you are proof of that! Keep it up... love it
wow even the recordings of the music have greater quality of sound than the originals on RUclips .. I never get tired of watching and rocking with Sina
I always know that when you do a cover of a classic song no matter what band, it will be perfect! You are wonderful and thanks for all the hard work you do!
So very well played Sina. You play those classic rock relics as if it's just second nature to you. You play with such extraordinaire professionalism. Your sheer passion and drive is so unreachable. Such exceptional fantastic talent isn't easy to just drift along overnight. It takes devotion and earned passionate hard work. And you have accomplished that with flying colours. Thanks so much & God bless.😊😊
Great drumming. Great choice of music. Few of us older folks in my group of friends. love watching you and the music you pick. Maybe your old soul in a young body. Good stuff. Rock on✌😊.
Oh Sina, I fell out of my chair. My #2 favorite song. One is House of the Rising Son, All Right Now, and Never Been Any Reason (Head East) Thank you, thank you, thank you. *Big Hugs*
Wow where do i start.... thanks for caring about our thoughts but the answer is obvious. Your channel is Sina Drums and we all come here because we love to see and hear what a beautiful, young perfectionist, percussionist (did you like that) does with a song from the good old nostalgic days of rock. The great thing about you is that give the songs their due respect but in doing so bring the drums forward and make them prominent which improves every song hands down. Someone commented previously and said that you Sina ize your covers and i couldn't agree more. Dont stop doing what you do. In fact there is a hell of a lot of Mikerize going on as well and that should not be forgotten. Take a bow Mike, your a genius. I'm not a musician but maybe someone could help me and tell me the name of the instrument clicking away in the background or is it just 2 sticks . Whatever they are you missed a perfect opportunity to get your lovely sister Milena involved and help her progress from the cowbells which she plays so well. Beautiful job as always Sina. Aussie Al
AHHH!! Love it Sina keep the classics alive and rockin!!. I absolutely love that someone your age is influenced so heavily by the classics you can see it in your wild style and your flavor choices in hardware. You can also hear it in your playing now all that added up make you one of my top favorites in internet percissionists. Srry for the ramble your the best Sina.
It just goes to show that Sina can play anything, any type of song no matter the style. She plays to perfection. Sina you are beyond amazing. Keep up the good work.
One of my favorite classic rock songs. If I were only listening, I would never have known it wasn't the original. Your vids always take me back to the glorious days when I was in a band...we were just underaged teens playing local clubs (probably couldn't get away with it these days). We had some of the ingredients for success, but not enough. If we had you as our drummer we likely could have moved on to "bigger and better things". 😊
Hi Sina, Well you've done it again! I distinctly remember hearing this song "ALL RIGHT NOW" way back when I was just 21 and quite a few times since but now after listening to your cover of it, BOY does it sound better than ever!!! Let's just face facts...you my dear have the "MIDAS" touch when it comes to covering music, any music!! GREAT JOB SWEETIE!!! BETTER THAN GREAT!! WHEN IT COMES TO ROCK....YOU MAKE IT ROLL!!! "LOVE YA"
Alright! Stumbled on some of your older videos this morning, very cool. As I’ve come to know and admire over these last few months is to expect to enjoy a few minutes of a talented display of drumming. Thank you ❤
Good job, Sina. Not every drum cover has to be brilliant. Solid handwork is also fine. This is a very powerful version of a real rock classic. Thanks for that!
The fact that you know this song exists is just a tribute to how cool, how schooled you are, and how familiar you are with classic Rock! You rock my dear! ;)
Well I had to watch that a couple times in a row, not to compare to the original but because I enjoyed it so much. I enjoy how your dad mixes the videos and how you cover the songs. I think if they had modern technology then the mixes would be better. I don't mind if your dad enhances the kick drum, in original recordings they can be lost a bit. One thing I've learned watching you covers is that the kick drum is used more often than I thought. You can't always pick up on it in older recordings, but I wouldn't have thought that the kick was used on more than just the downbeat.
Watching the foot cam, wish I had coordination to just do that let alone rest with the sticks lol. Such a talented young lady. Love the work and energy and the sometimes capture of the smile at the end when the song is nailed.
Hi Sina. Thanks for another great cover of a song I grew up with. I was in my sophomore year in high school when this was first on the air. You did a wonderful job of covering it and I am always amazed by how effortless you make it seem.
Smile on her face smile on my face 😄Sina your the best your joyful energy travels thru you to your audience every video God Bless you from Detroit 😄❤️🇺🇸😎
This was mine and my girlfriend. Well back at the time when this first came out. We danced and teased each other so much. In love and laughter was a great part of being 18. So happy together. 🎉 😊 Thanks for the memories

By far, the best sound quality that can be found anywhere on RUclips.
Music is the air in her lungs, the blood in her veins, the sparkle in her eyes, the beat in her heart and the fire in her soul. You are an inspiration young lady! Never disappointed.
Driving around playing this and Many more like it October - ?, 1973 in a 68 AMC 4-door Ambassador pushing all the 12 watts I could get through the Am/Fm multiplex Stock stereo in Phoenix, AZ on Central Ave.
Three months before that I was finishing 3 years in the ARMY.
This was one of those songs that just made you feel Good back then and still does.
Very Nice. You and all who help you, You Guys ROCK!
I usually don't like it when folks mess with the songs I grew up with but you absolutely NAIL it every time!
same here, 65 years old and love this kid.
Wow!

"All Right Now" is just what I was feeling hearing you play this. It brightened my day.
Man did this cover take me back. Way back! This is one of the very first songs I learned to play with my first real band. I started playing around the late 60s but a actual band not til 1971. Thanks again Sina for not only allowing us the privilege of watching your amazing talent but for your choices in music and for waking up so many memories for so many people. You have no idea of the effects you have on all your dedicated fans. Love you girl and thank you.
All true, except this fan didn’t seize the opportunity to learn a musical instrument.
No matter what decade and age of any song, Sina will make it fresh, alive and new again....Thanks Sina for making our weekend ' All Right Now '...
Sina hands on fire.....the most iconic song covered by a fun to watch drummer who is enjoying it immensely.....and she is good.....
This video marks a milestone for me: It is the first Sina performance with which I was able to play along on my own drum kit. After watching many, many of her covers, this is the first song with which I am quite familiar and, let's face it, is really simple to play. I enjoyed matching Sina's moves, especially the cymbal hits. I still need a lot of work on my bass drum but doing the fills with her was great fun. Thanks, Sina, for being my "teacher" for a day.
My what a precious gift your Mum and Dad were blessed with.
Hello Sina. It's great that you've reached for the classics. It was and will remain my favorite piece of Free. You play very well. Thank you. Greetings from Poland.
I think you almost have covered 80% of my most liked Classic Rock tunes from early 60s 70s 80s 90s i can put you on autoplay and listen all day and you're so good its often very hard to tell the diffrence in you and the original Drummer. I play Guitar im 57 years old i lived through these days of Rock been to many concerts from several bands including this one from Free, BadCo, Paul rodgers, Rush, Deep purple, Nirvana, Rolling Stones, Foreigner, Van halen, Cheap trick, Genises, thats about half of ones ive seen the most.
Sina you ROCK Girl !!!!
She Rocked Elvis, so I'm happy !
Wow, wie die Zeit vergeht....Heute vor 6 Jahren hast du deine Reise in die Welt der Musik begonnen....Vor 3 Jahren wurde ich durch dein Cover von "Jump" zu einem Fan von dir. Ich glaube, keiner von euch hätte damals auch nur im Traum daran gedacht, wie sich deine Reise entwickelt. Heute, nach 6 Jahren , bist Du dank deiner Ausdauer, deiner Disziplin und deinem schier unglaublichen Talent eine der welotbesten Drummer geworden. Ich persönlich glaube ja, dass die Götter der Musikwelt dir nicht nur einen Becher oder Krug voll Talent gegeben haben, sondern dich einfach im großen Talentpool schwimmen ließen.
Ich wünsche dir alles erdenklich Gute und eine Riesenpertion Glück auf deiner weiteren Reise. Bewahre dir für die weitere Zukunft nicht nur dein Talent, sondern auch dein großes Einfühlvermögen in die Musik. Du hast sie nicht nur im Blut, sondern auch und vor allem in deinem Herzen und deiner Seele.
Viele liebe Grüße auch an Milena, Mike und deine Mom, und deinem ganzen Team, das dich unterstützt. Auch Euch allen können wir nicht genug danken.
Viele liebe Grüße, die Lady
My Lady Sina doing another brilliant performance! I will gladly say it the 1M time, this young lady is my number favourite drummer in my little world for those who disagree!
I love the way YOU play the drums Sina. I like the prominent upfront sound of the drums and the way you Sina-style your covers, it may not be much but enough to make it your own. Your dad does an impeccable job of mixing and editing your videos and I have said that from the beginning. The answer to your question, Yes I have been hearing a difference and I love it! So please feel free to update and make it the Sina/Mike style of drum covers.
Wow another Sina masterpiece! You absolutely nailed this song. You’ve opened my eyes to the beauty of the drums as an instrument. It’s like I’m hearing all the songs I loved in the 60’s and 70’s from a totally new perspective, where it’s the drums that are the heart of the music. You are amazing!
Absolutely d'accord! I couldn't have said it better!
Exactly! I couldn’t agree more. Sina’s post on what makes Ringo a great drummer made me realize the appeal of music in the 60s and 70s to me is the drumming. Another great Sina cover of hers is Radar Love. There’s a mighty heart in this person. Best!
Besides being an excellent drummer, you have great taste in classic rock!
Pat knows well
Absolutely ever night i find another tune i love Sina covers im 57 i seen Led Zepplin at 16 years old in Seattle Wa and love most all Classic Rock
Just awesome cover
Great, SINA. And again a look back to the seventies, where the music was still done by hand. If I imagine what it must have been to work at that time to produce an LP, unbelievable. Nevertheless or because of that the seventies were and are so valuable. Thank God there is SINA, who shows us this precious time again and again. Many thanks for that and thank you to everyone involved. It feels so good.
Super gemacht, SINA. Und wieder ein Blick zurück in die siebziger Jahre, wo die Musik noch mit der Hand gemacht wurde. Wenn ich mir vorstelle, was das damals für eine Arbeit gewesen sein mußte, eine LP herzustellen, unglaublich. Trotzdem oder gerade deswegen waren und sind die siebziger Jahre so wertvoll. Gott sei Dank gibt es SINA, die uns diese wertvolle Zeit immer mal wieder vor Augen führt. Vielen lieben Dank dafür und vielen Dank an alle Beteiligten. Es tut so gut.
Another great cover from my youth. Loved this song in 1970 and almost 50 years later still love it! :)
It is Friday afternoon here in Canada, the work week is done and I have just watched Sina do another amazing drum cover of an older classic rock song. Yes it's "All right Now".
I love your up front drum sound, it's crisper and negates many muddled sounding vintage though classic songs!!
Hello Sina, I was ten years old when this song was released. I believe you have added something special to this rock classic. Thank you again, as always a pleasure to see and hear you hone your craft.
Awesome job. One of the greatest classic rock songs and you nailed it.
Nice you nailed another classic !!! Keep rocking my people !!!
Your beat and Paul Rodgers voice, what a combo!
AWESOME, love when you do the classics! beautiful young lady playing great music!
Don't know why I enjoy these videos as much as I do...but I do. Oh, the Talent!
I do. She's kinda cute, or cute enough, anyway, selects good music to cover that hits a certain demographic...mine....and plays the eff out of 'em. It's like listening to the original, almost. I keep looking for something fake, but there isn't any....she's truly amazing.
What a fine drummer and musician you are. I've been watching your covers for about 2 years now and I not only see improvement; I see close to perfection. I too love to play these old rock songs now on one of my kits and played almost all of them live in the late 60's-70's. You are a much better drummer than I am and I wish you luck in all you do, especially music.
Another superb cover by the Sina team. I wasn't into this style of music back when it was first popular, but now that I am older, I find myself really enjoying it. A big part of the reason for that is your efforts to bring this music to a new life, Sina. All I can say is: Vielen, vielen Dank!
Sina, one of the things I love about watching your videos is the various camera angles that show all of what you're doing. Truly appreciate that, and as always, you are simply awesome, wow, what a talent!
Another classic brought into today and made a bit stronger with some magic mixing. I like the update. You make these classics stronger by the way You interpret them and how your Dad (The Man) mixes them. You two are definitely all right, now make more music.
Thank you Sina! Not the flowery praise of others or a gem of english literery composition, Just a simple but heartfelt thank you for making my day better every time you play.
You're always able to improve the sound of every great classic. I really appreciate that!
Sina ist einfach super und spielt mit so viel Hingabe. Jedes Stück macht so viel Spaß. Danke, dass du du so toll bist.
Her timing is so perfect I get tears in my eyes...
sina is awesome she is 20 even thow she looks alot younger .she has alot of talent and can play other instruments as well as her friends .they have all gone to music school and work very hard to give us many great songs . please do me a favor and if u give other famous people comments let them know how much u also injoy sina-drums@thegirlsgotgroove so we can help get her noticed and bring all her talent to another level.thanks america would be so much better with a generation full of people as great as sina and her friends .and if money is tight at least we can each support her by telling everyone how much you enjoy sina and her music also by sending her link to other favorite bands we like so they can give a listen ,also to 3 of ur friends so we can get sinas followers trippled sina-drums@thegirlsgotgroove to other celeberties who may like to enjoy what she shares with us everyday and also how much enjoyment we could get from seeing her play with someone like your favorite band ..now wouldent that take ur breath away ? ...btw sina has 343 youtube videos and 832k subscribers thank you for your support and adds i know she appreaciate it .thank you another sina fan jerry
I cry for different reasons.
Every time i see this young lady play Im more impressed. All I can say is DAAAANNNNG
Its All right now! back in the day the recordings were often muddy. and difficult at time to tell what was happening. my band used to spend a lot of time trying to sort out lyrics and guitar and drum parts. wore out a lot of 45s . I like what you do and i learn a lot listening and watching you play, stuff we used to play. thanks
Sina, you are the most interesting musician on RUclips.
She is the most amazing artist on RUclips right now🎉🎉❤❤🎉
Her drumming is a bewitching sight! Nice! Thanks, Sina!
Wunder . . .. . love your cover songs I'm 70, and listened to you since you did Pipeline with your dad.
Ive patiently been waiting for Sinas cover of this song. I love the passion Simon Kirke put into his playing. Sina more than covered it, she killed it! A very nice tibute to one of my favorites. Thanks for sharing your time and talent.
I could almost see Paul Kossoff to your left giving you the nod of approval! S. Kirk drums just had that sound that hit home like no one else. Hope he watches this. From Smokin' to Radar Love...Nice Sina... keep them coming
Brilliant!! Just Brilliant!! Never mind all the technicalities, you, Sina, are Just Brilliant.
HELL YESSS!!!!!!!!!!!! an absolute favorite! i went back and forth with the original and, damn, i can't hear a difference other than modern audio being crisper, and their fadeout. i cant even remember how many times i have sung this in the car!! Whhooooo!!!
Wow, Sina, this is just total coolness! One of the greatest rock anthems of its era, maybe even of all time. It's a pretty simple groove, of course, but you played it with the power and precision we've come to expect from you. As one of several who have been mentioning it for inclusion on your list, I say: thank you!
Honestly, I half expected that if you did it at all you'd do it as a collaboration rather than a drum cover, but I imagine it would be tough to find a singer who could do justice to Paul Rodgers' iconic vocals. So we get the best of both worlds, Sina + Paul!
Donald Boettger great comment👍If you like “Free” myself and three other people on RUclips from all different parts of the planet just got together and done a cover of “Fire and Water” maybe I should hit up the singer and see if he would like to have a go at this one as well👍hope you have a look and let me know what you think👌and I hope you have a great weekend 😎👍
Not only are you a precision drummer you’re a great performer. You play with such feeling.
As a drummer myself I appreciate your passion.
You’re awesome
She is amazing, she'd make any band, all right now. Go girl, thanks for updating good ole R&R.
Dear Sina,
Great job! You really hit the groove. Great timing. I especially appreciate that you don't add or embellish the fills and play it true to the original. And that is the best way to cover and the hardest thing to do. Most drummers want to tweek it as if they are making it theirs. It is never better than the original. You must spend quite a lot of time to get it just right. Congratulations, you have a bright future in percussion should you choose to continue.
Best wishes,
50 years and counting on traps
It's unbelievable for a youngster to pick these great rock songs . Very proud of your music choice and yr geat talent . Keep going
WOW ... FANTASTIC JOB Sina, and I have always loved that song ... especially the way Paul Rodgers sings it, I've heard others sing "Alright Now" but Paul Rodgers does it best, and why wouldn't he... he wrote it. Keep up with the Classic Rock songs Sina ... it's was and still is the Best music still going the and now!
Sina, Crushes another Rock oldie Brings back my teen years.
I didn’t even remember this being so good! Has not played on the radio.
Old recordings are muffled and with the equipment you have and the talent and the skill I think you do great things with old songs thank you Sina I love your work
Great job once again! I always say, when you see a musician smile they love what they do and the music is better fir it, you are proof of that! Keep it up... love it
The music she drums to is the sound track of my life. She’s incredible!!
wow even the recordings of the music have greater quality of sound than the originals on RUclips .. I never get tired of watching and rocking with Sina
I always know that when you do a cover of a classic song no matter what band, it will be perfect! You are wonderful and thanks for all the hard work you do!
Awesome as usual. Thanks. This is my generations music. Always a classic 70's song.
She not only covers all my old time favorites, she covers them as good as the originals.
So very well played Sina. You play those classic rock relics as if it's just second nature to you. You play with such extraordinaire professionalism. Your sheer passion and drive is so unreachable. Such exceptional fantastic talent isn't easy to just drift along overnight. It takes devotion and earned passionate hard work. And you have accomplished that with flying colours. Thanks so much & God bless.😊😊
that is the ultimate classic from 1970 i remember hearing this all the time growing up
Great drumming. Great choice of music. Few of us older folks in my group of friends. love watching you and the music you pick. Maybe your old soul in a young body. Good stuff. Rock on✌😊.
"All right now", Sina. You rocked the basement, again!
👍
Oh Sina, I fell out of my chair. My #2 favorite song. One is House of the Rising Son, All Right Now, and Never Been Any Reason (Head East) Thank you, thank you, thank you. *Big Hugs*
Wow where do i start.... thanks for caring about our thoughts but the answer is obvious. Your channel is Sina Drums and we all come here because we love to see and hear what a beautiful, young perfectionist, percussionist (did you like that) does with a song from the good old nostalgic days of rock. The great thing about you is that give the songs their due respect but in doing so bring the drums forward and make them prominent which improves every song hands down. Someone commented previously and said that you Sina ize your covers and i couldn't agree more. Dont stop doing what you do. In fact there is a hell of a lot of Mikerize going on as well and that should not be forgotten. Take a bow Mike, your a genius. I'm not a musician but maybe someone could help me and tell me the name of the instrument clicking away in the background or is it just 2 sticks . Whatever they are you missed a perfect opportunity to get your lovely sister Milena involved and help her progress from the cowbells which she plays so well. Beautiful job as always Sina. Aussie Al
AHHH!! Love it Sina keep the classics alive and rockin!!. I absolutely love that someone your age is influenced so heavily by the classics you can see it in your wild style and your flavor choices in hardware. You can also hear it in your playing now all that added up make you one of my top favorites in internet percissionists. Srry for the ramble your the best Sina.
Wonderful performance SINA.
Drums sound beautiful as always!
Sina, you are incredibly talented!!! Always enjoy your classic rock covers!!! You make the world a better place. Keep it real, Jeff.
The difference between Sina and others on RUclips is that they play to the music, but Sina becomes the music........
Ummm, but …. Yoyoka
It just goes to show that Sina can play anything, any type of song no matter the style. She plays to perfection. Sina you are beyond amazing. Keep up the good work.
Great chops
You took the words right out my mouth...."She becomes the music" 👍🏻
It’s a bit mean you know people try..
One of my favorite classic rock songs. If I were only listening, I would never have known it wasn't the original. Your vids always take me back to the glorious days when I was in a band...we were just underaged teens playing local clubs (probably couldn't get away with it these days). We had some of the ingredients for success, but not enough. If we had you as our drummer we likely could have moved on to "bigger and better things". 😊
Hi Sina, Well you've done it again! I distinctly remember hearing this song "ALL RIGHT NOW" way back when I was just 21 and quite a few times since but now after listening to your cover of it, BOY does it sound better than ever!!! Let's just face facts...you my dear have the "MIDAS" touch when it comes to covering music, any music!! GREAT JOB SWEETIE!!! BETTER THAN GREAT!! WHEN IT COMES TO ROCK....YOU MAKE IT ROLL!!! "LOVE YA"
Technique!!! A daily dose of Sina Drums makes life better. Thank you for all your dedication.
You are fantastic again and again! Thanks for the video! 👏👍😍🥁
Alright! Stumbled on some of your older videos this morning, very cool. As I’ve come to know and admire over these last few months is to expect to enjoy a few minutes of a talented display of drumming. Thank you ❤
Great job!! One of my favorite songs. Paul Rodgers, one of the best rock vocalists ever.
You nailed it girl you are one heck of a drummer . Can't stop watching your video's !!! Keep on Rocking !!!!
Good job, Sina. Not every drum cover has to be brilliant. Solid handwork is also fine. This is a very powerful version of a real rock classic. Thanks for that!
Sina’s drumming is ALWAYS so spot on. Many times it’s hard for me to tell the difference from the original.👏
Nice 2 see a young lady who appreciates Good Rock N Roll ! Rock On !
The fact that you know this song exists is just a tribute to how cool, how schooled you are, and how familiar you are with classic Rock! You rock my dear! ;)
Well I had to watch that a couple times in a row, not to compare to the original but because I enjoyed it so much. I enjoy how your dad mixes the videos and how you cover the songs. I think if they had modern technology then the mixes would be better. I don't mind if your dad enhances the kick drum, in original recordings they can be lost a bit. One thing I've learned watching you covers is that the kick drum is used more often than I thought. You can't always pick up on it in older recordings, but I wouldn't have thought that the kick was used on more than just the downbeat.
Once again Sina a awesome cover. Does my heart good to see young people enjoy real rock n roll. Awesome job
Tolle Version eines Klassikers meiner Lieblingsband Free, die meiner Meinung nach einen der allerbesten Rocksänger überhaupt hatte: Paul Rodgers.
I can't begin to say how many memories this song has . Thank you for another good job on a great classic rock hit.
A great cover from a song that goes way back to simpler times! Nice job!
Watching the foot cam, wish I had coordination to just do that let alone rest with the sticks lol. Such a talented young lady. Love the work and energy and the sometimes capture of the smile at the end when the song is nailed.
Another great song with this sweet young lady's passionate playing, I think we can only see more great things from her in the future
Hi Sina. Thanks for another great cover of a song I grew up with. I was in my sophomore year in high school when this was first on the air. You did a wonderful job of covering it and I am always amazed by how effortless you make it seem.
*Alright Now* _So many songs to be covered and Sina finally got to this classic! And WE get to hear her!! Another GREAT Performance!!!_
BLOWN AWAY!
Love the classic double-hits on the bass drum. You nailed it!
great recovery of a classic hit in much better quality.
one of my favourite songs, thanks Sina.
Smile on her face smile on my face 😄Sina your the best your joyful energy travels thru you to your audience every video God Bless you from Detroit 😄❤️🇺🇸😎
Amen to that, she makes me smile too, seeing the cheeky smile of contentment after doing a perfect performance. God bless you too Jon !
Amen Brother Rock on Sina ❤️😎
My favourite song of all time. Used to play this song all the time as a drummer in a pub band in the 80's... you played it brilliantly, thank you!
This was mine and my girlfriend. Well back at the time when this first came out. We danced and teased each other so much. In love and laughter was a great part of being 18. So happy together. 🎉 😊 Thanks for the memories
you got me by a couple of years old dude!
