XeviWorld:The last (of the old) one: EVERLONG (FOO FIGHTERS)

[ghoawaynetcabo]

Not flawless at all, like I said - easy on that coke, but still this is more like it good job

[bossboy007]

I love this guy ! Brilliant .

[21MusicMan21]

Fantastic drumming, Great Covers, Awesome taste in music.. Impressive man!

[darkgodofgames]

you're playing this well, but you seem to get out of time A LOT. and I know that playing the drums requires sound, but you don't exactly have to flail madly. this is indeed a very difficult song to play just because of the everlasting speed on the hi hat. otherwise you did very well, and since you did this back in 07, I would like to see how far you've come.

[queenmcsleaze]

@darkgodofgames that's a fair point - xevi's videos do often have mistakes but they are minor, and he points out his mistakes: I have found his videos instructional - when he learns a dave grohl part, even if he gets out of time with the record you can see that he knows exactly what he should be playign to replicate dave. I don't want to kiss his ass anymore cuz it's weird but i will add - i think xevi only flails cuz he gets really into the 'spirit' of the track (abit like Grohl himself)

[xevifoo]

@queenmcsleaze Thanks for the support mate! (y) ROCK ON! Since I started doing covers on You Tube I played very very few hours every week. Like 3h to 4h hours a week. So I just did my best with the time I had. I'm not crazy for perfection: There's allways a biger fish. I really had tons of fun doing it! HELL YEAH! THANKS AGAIN! X.

[queenmcsleaze]

@xevifoo seriously watching your Red War/First It Giveth video totally opened my eyes/ears and my drumming

[bossboy007]

This guy is brill , watched most of his videos on here , you rock dude !!!!

[Cheeseisparkerish]

Don't get me wrong. He's good.

[Cheeseisparkerish]

I've got a suggestion. Don't hit the kick drum, snare, and hat at the same time. It usually sounds better if you just leave the kick drum out.

[yumpringles]

@Cheeseisparkerish Thats how the song is played though....

[antimpatsos]

Until now it's the best cover I 've seen between all the covers of "everlong" in youtube

[drummeryan337]

Nice cover, please check out my drum cover of Everlong I just put on my channel! Thanks.

[jeebis815]

On the high hat, couldn't you substitute the single 16th notes into 8th note diddles?

It'd be great to practice that way and work up to the singles! :]

[tenatiousd123]

yh thts what i do nd it helps u to get the idea of where the bass notes go and u can then put in 16ths whenever

[alxkro]

love it!

[jnlenhart]

either way amazing cover

[jnlenhart]

Is it just me or is his Hi-hat REALLY FREAKING HIGH?

[112rhavin3581321]

Hmm should i learn this or all my life this week? This guys inspired me to get back drummer! Maybe both?

Now for a more important question, one thats been irritating me since i first heard this wonderful song....what does grohl whisper at 3.05!?!?!?!? argh!

[idriveadodgestratus]

I heard it's like a mashup of him reading an instruction manual and some other random thing haha...it's weird but sounds cool.

[agjebb]

Holy shit. That was awesome.

[Mrjimmy498]

epic!

[ngrummon]

shoot. better than me.

[DavyGrolton]

You rock man! I'm a bass player and I've tried to play this song with a band but our drummer couldn't figure it out =(... I was the only sucker who learned it well... Greets form Argentina

[Blacksadback]

u rock man.

[cbaja71]

Magnifico!

[Xormithan]

"arguing on the internet is like running in the special olympics. even if you win, you're still a retard."

[timmay41189]

Well said :o

[matatmat]

omfggg

yur amazing hahaha

where did yu get that quote??

[kevinheartwell91]

iv been playin the drums for a month now n iv cut my fingers pritty bad tryin to get good at them :P

but so far so good ;)

[Drumvain]

That is very impressive, especially since I am having trouble learning it.

[Leeszah]

i know its cool to c how each cover has its own twist

[Slayerben3]

not bad at all for only one or two takes. Good job, keep it up :D

[killersccrplayer]

this dude is good! good vid

[REDHOT19012]

Muy bueno, quisiera yo aprender a tocar así, bueno, bueno, awesome!

[fan1d1rock]

joder tio eres el puto amo para aprender a tocar y eso lo mejor tus videos ...joder si k eres bueno colega!!!! esos FOO!!!!!!!!

[dnadz12]

pretty nasty

[WhiskeyArjan]

Well, I play the drums by myself too, and I can really learn by watching guys like him...

[VoteOlegForJesus08]

i can see your point. i just find it not enough for me

[kuber33]

gachupin rules!!! :p

[aliplayer5]

man this guy is good! i want his drum set where do you get it? and how much? lol :}

[coulicab]

nice job man!

[VoteOlegForJesus08]

i dunno kinda boring. you stay in the pocket really well, its just you played it just like the album...not too original. but you can keep it steady, so kudos in that area

[ownthecity]

i think that maybe thats why its called a "cover"

[VoteOlegForJesus08]

err, what's the point of "covering" music if you aren't going to do anything different to it. hmmm, how bout, umm, just listening to the album? nevermind, that would make sense..

[shaggmeister]

that would be completely true, if this was a cover from a whole band. nothing wrong with playing along to a song though. besides, dave grohl did it just right on the drums anyways ;]

awesome jam. wish we could have a drummer as brash as you

[OblivionKBB44]

If you are doing a cover you should either TRASH it and completely make it your own, or you should do it SPOT on!!! No half assed bullshit

[nobutyeh]

WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU?

[OblivionKBB44]

A person? What do you mean who are you I'm not gonna give out personal information you retard!

[nobutyeh]

I don't want your personal info you little shit, i ment if you can do better post a vid if not don't slag him off sayin he should do it spot on and no half assed bullshit you fuckin muppet.

[OblivionKBB44]

whoa whoa you misunderstood, I didn't say he was half assed OR he didn't do it spot on! I didn't trash him at all. It's to bad you couldn't understand because you aren't a drummer. :D

[nobutyeh]

I was playing the drums when you were swimming around your dad's balls. just show a bit of respect calling people retard,its not on.

[OblivionKBB44]

Respect? Ok...SIR, you are a retard and can't play drums worth a tiny rats ass you fucker, SIR. I'm not gonna waste my time responding again or even reading your response.

[nobutyeh]

oooooooh!! internet BIG BOY, grow up.

[FlyBird]

And no, he didn't play it just like album at all. It deviated from it quite a bit. He covered it and he threw in his own style.

Examples:

He open his hi-hat sometimes during the verses, when it's usually closed during the song

Did some of his own fills during the fills in the chorus

At the end of the last chorus, he kinda went crazy on the toms there

And a couple other little things.

So in the end: You're wrong either way.

[VoteOlegForJesus08]

oh im sorry. i forgot about the little nuance hi-hat shot. he really reinvented the wheel. oh and the 6 seconds of fill at the end, that really made the song different! not only was the song and the things he did different taylor hawkinis in style, structurally, i was unsuprised enough to write the previous message. even the way he does the intro to the song is the same. but you have the authority here cause your the biggest dick, so I guess my insight doesn't matter because im wrong either way.

[FlyBird]

What in the fuck are you going on about?

Yes, you're wrong, because apparently, you're having trouble knowing what a cover is.

It HAS to be AT LEAST similar to be considered a cover. If not, it's just him drumming along with song, freestyling or coming up with his beats for the song.

What in the fuck do you want to do? What I stated above? Go somewhere else for that, like to clodelars, where he's playing along to songs, instead of covering them.

Stop being a dick, dude.

[VoteOlegForJesus08]

firstly. I didn't ask him to do something completely different. just thought opinion wise, it was too similar. secondly, your the dick, because apparently im not entitled to my own opinion.

Quote:

"So in the end: You're wrong either way"

right, i'm a real asshole, sorry for finding the few additions too similar. I forgot that it wasn't my opinion, my feelings are just an allusion right? it's true, I guess I'm not actually feeling what I'm feeling right now

[sharty5000]

you make sense in a way, but you made it look like you were bein a douche

[VoteOlegForJesus08]

how though? my initial statement even complimented him for being in the pocket.

[Tussen940]

Your the best drummer on Youtube!:O

[busteruk]

In comment to the negative comments youve received...i've watched A LOT of drum vids on here and your one of few who plays with HEART... yes theres a lot of great technical drummers who are like robots but boring to watch and usually up their own arse....you can tell you love to play and your pretty modest! rock on man! it's bloody good stuff!

[nicohtk]

one of those perfect covers where he doesn't try to over-do it but manages to add his own touch brilliantly. 5 star.

[Kkurdt4ever]

great

[WildBill707]

just that statement alone tells the world you dont have a clue what you are talking bout. Either you cant play shit and this guy blows you out of the water so bad you got to trash em, or your just stupid.
