Hi. As a drummer, this tune has frustrated me ever since I first heard it around 1969, but I have to say this cover of it is simply THE best I ever heard. Kudos to you. Regards Mark in the UK
Marco, I have watched a lot of drum covers for 21st Century Schizoid, and I have to commend you, this is best. You replicate Michael Giles play perfectly. I saw one guy just beat away, not even trying to use Giles jazz chops. Cudos!
Nicely done! Michael Giles is my favorite drummer, tons of finesse and a crisp tone that cuts well through a dense mix. Very difficult to imitate, though. Some of those time changes look really hard.
Great job. At first I cringed at the thought of a drummer taking chances with Giles's wonderful drumming, but it seems you were more than adequate in outliving the ordeal. Kudos galore.
Marco. Mike Giles changed my life and playing as a drummer. He taught me there was space between notes and I didn't have to fill them all up. Crimson, Poseidon and McDonald & Giles, my three favorites. I'm proud of you my drumming brother. Stay at it.
This song changed my life, and seeing you perform it like this is a dream come true. We couldn't see Giles do it, but you have allowed us something otherwise impossible. Congrats and thank you!!!
Probably the greatest drum accompaniment ever. Even Bernard Purdie/Keith Carlock would struggle with this! I love it to bits and always have. Well done for nailing it so perfectly.
I believe that King Crimson as a band is a school for a musician that wants to get into a progressive rock realm ..(my personal opinion) and Mr. Ferraresi is already graduated, congratulations!!
seeing this drum cover was really a turning point for me, its been 4 years since i watched this video and im still amazed at this song. I became a drummer for some friends in my highschool but when i watched this i realised just how technical and impressive the drums could be and it has driven me to push myself further and try to get as best as i possibly could. Thank you this video has been very influential to me.
I’m literally speechless!! Thank you for your kind words and for sharing this with the world! It’s amazing knowing I could positively influence you that way, I would have never expected that! But that’s the beauty of music, I guess. It’s a constant and never ending exchange of feelings and ideas. Every musician has something to share with other musician or with people in general. Keep studying and loving music, and let us know once you have posted your personal cover of this amazing tune and we will come to watch it and support you!
My Friend, to say i watch a lot of RUclips would be the most over the top understatement I can express . . . UNLESS I dare comment that this video is THE MOST BADASS performance I believe I've ever seen. I've known this song for fifty years to be one of the most important songs EVER produced. AND YOU JUST ROCKED IT(like ONLY Michael Giles and YOU can) . . . UNEQUALED. NOTHING I've got I really need and YET . . . Another Treasure! Blessings, Ted Furlo
Thanks man, this means a lot!! Something is a little bit different from the original version, but I tried to keep the same vibe, if you see what I mean ;)
This is really impressive… I saw one of King Crimson’s first live shows at the Marquee Club in London with Mike Giles on drums, wearing a suit and tie. Great job on the cover.
Wow, what a cover! The tom fills at 4:33, 4:36 and 4:40 were so accurate. Did you listen to the isolated drum track? If not you have insane hearing abilities.
Vorrei proprio sapere chi sono quegli 8 frustrati che hanno messo "non mi piace" Complimenti davvero a Marco Ferraresi, questa e' la miglior cover di questo meraviglioso brano che ho mai sentito.
That is an outrageous song to cover. The playing and kit is up to the task. Impressive, well done sir. I am really enjoying those cymbals, had to look them up.
I understand the frustration! I went through it too, but take it slowly man! section by section. there's no rush to play the whole thing! It will take time and practice ;)
@@runikx9294 oh man, you’re too kind!! Thanks a lot, really appreciated!! Keep working hard, studying and listening to a lot of music and you’ll get there I’m sure 😉
WOW WOW WOW, this is the most amazing cover of this song ever, I bought this album when it first came out and fell in love with this drum part, lol you have blown my mind with all the talent you have for sure played for the video, I am a drummer for 56 years and still can't play this song, so you are for sure a hero to me. I have played with some great people and maybe could have been doing it more if I could have played this song like you did. Thanks a huge ton for making this video.
Was a jam recently and the sax player started noodling around with this song and I attempted to play it from memory... We both started laughing! You sir did a tremendous job of this classic song 👍👍🥁🤘
Thanks a lot man! Very appreciated! And yes, I studied it for 2-3 months almost daily to improve it. Still not 100% happy with the result as there are still a few mistakes and things I could have done way better, but this one sounds decent at least ;)
Bravissimo marco buona tecnica e fluidità complimenti brano perfetto io provavo a farlo 40 anni fa mi avvicinavo ma guardandoti capisco. la difficoltà e quanto studio hai nelle tue mani veramente super ti seguirò sempre ok

Thank you very much man, It's much appreciated!! It's been quite challenging indeed, but I tried my best!
Try the base in, "I'm gonna biglarise you baby" captain beefheart
keep trying!!
21st Century Schizoid man is a very technical and demanding song.
You need true talent to nail it with such precision.
Kudos, great work.
You nailed it! The kit sounds fantastic and the snare sounds spot on. Right in time on the stop and go parts to boot. Great cover!
Bobby Cain thank you so much man! I really appreciate it!! I tried my best 😉
When your drum teacher says “Here learn how to speak Arabic on the drums”
🤣🤣🤣
Marco, I have watched a lot of drum covers for 21st Century Schizoid, and I have to commend you, this is best. You replicate Michael Giles play perfectly. I saw one guy just beat away, not even trying to use Giles jazz chops. Cudos!
Thank you so much! This means a lot!!
I'm speechless. The drumming is so beyond superb and that snare sound is beyond tasty. Awesome brother.
Thank you so much man! It means a lot for me!! Thank you!!!!
4:10 from this moment everybody can tell we are watching a master cover instead of a good one
HAHAHA Thank you so much man!!
I am sure Michael Giles is proud of you
Hopefully!! Thank you so much!!
Having seen King Crimson Many Times, including The 1969 Hyde Park Gig...I can Safely Say Marco , You Nailed it.
Thank you so much David, it means a lot!!
Nicely done! Michael Giles is my favorite drummer, tons of finesse and a crisp tone that cuts well through a dense mix. Very difficult to imitate, though. Some of those time changes look really hard.
Thanks a lot man! It's been challenging indeed! Not easy at all, it took me a while!
Watching this cover shows exactly why Robert Fripp holds Michael Giles is such esteem. This is brilliant stuff.
Thanks a lot man! Very appreciated
Great job. At first I cringed at the thought of a drummer taking chances with Giles's wonderful drumming, but it seems you were more than adequate in outliving the ordeal. Kudos galore.
It means a lot, man!! Thank you

Thank you so much Gregory!! Much appreciated!
Getting into King Crimson now, when I heard this song I knew I had to look for a drum cover straight away. Nice work man, the kit sounds fantastic!
Matheus T.C. Thank you so much man 🙂
This song changed my life, and seeing you perform it like this is a dream come true. We couldn't see Giles do it, but you have allowed us something otherwise impossible. Congrats and thank you!!!
Oh wow! Thanks a lot! I'm speechless! I hope I deserve such a comment! Thank you so much!
this is the sexiest sounding drum kit ive ever heard
Hahahaha thanks man, appreciate it!
Trying to learn the song and this video is super helpful
Oh, you too?
You won't find a better cover cuz this is spot on
Ah thank you so much, man! Appreciate it
Probably the greatest drum accompaniment ever. Even Bernard Purdie/Keith Carlock would struggle with this! I love it to bits and always have. Well done for nailing it so perfectly.

That sounds spot on, good job
Thank you so much :)

Thank you so much man!! It means a lot, much appreciated!! I tried my best ;)
3:41 That ride hits were an awesome choice!
Oh thanks a lot man! A bit of displacement 😉
Insane. My only problem is; why do you only have 85 subscribers? You need a whole lot more.
Thanks a lot, man! I appreciate it!
Man, imagine the pressure to not mess up in the final minute. Outstanding job!
Yes, a lot of pressure man!! Thank you so much, I appreciate it!!
My favorite drumming in all of rock
Thanks a lot man!!
Giles drumming in this makes this track. It's jazz. You got it.
Thanks a lot, appreciate it!
This is not only one of the best covers of this song but best drum covers period
Oh thank you so much!! You’re too kind!! It’s very very appreciated
I love it, seriously how has this still got so little views
This video has stood for a year and it still has single digit dislikes.
That shows how good this cover is.
Thank you so much, it's much appreciated!
Insane
Thanks man 😉
No problem man you are a fucking legend. Listened to this atleast a hundred times
Mike is a BEAST...You did a great job with a MAJOR prog song!
Thanks a lot man, very appreciated!!
Masterful cover. As a huge Michael Giles fan, I thank you for allowing me the opportunity to see his genius through you.
Thanks man, this means a lot!! Something is a little bit different from the original version, but I tried to keep the same vibe, if you see what I mean ;)
I think that Fletcher would consider NOT throwing a chair on your general direction! Awesome cover btw.
bellissime dinamiche, bravo Marco!!!!!!!!
Grande Pietro!! Grazie mille!!!!
This is really impressive… I saw one of King Crimson’s first live shows at the Marquee Club in London with Mike Giles on drums, wearing a suit and tie. Great job on the cover.
@@kelvynification oh man that must have been amazing!! Very jealous!!! Thanks a lot, really appreciated
Arguably one of the best drum covers I've ever watched. Everything sounds stunning. You have talent, brother.
Thank you so much man, means a lot!!
Wow, what a cover! The tom fills at 4:33, 4:36 and 4:40 were so accurate. Did you listen to the isolated drum track? If not you have insane hearing abilities.
Thanks a lot, man, it's much appreciated! I did listen to the isolated drum track indeed!

Nailed it! Absolutely on point, great job
Thank you so much man ;)
Yeah so this is amazing. I'm inspired to pick up trying to master it again. took a long break out of frustration.
I understand the frustration! I went through it too, but take it slowly man! section by section. there's no rush to play the whole thing! It will take time and practice ;)
Love the song, it was ahead of its time. Thank you for drums cover, you nailed it!
