Cobus - Lit - My Own Worst Enemy (Drum Cover)

[TheKylesauce]

Has anyone seen my sock?

[musicluvers643]

2:40 sick upword hit on the cymbal!

[NICKHAM16]

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.

[norwegianwoodfilms]

awesome as always cobus. but realy 90's music is the best :D

[DeebzofDemacia]

When both the top comments are by the same person... hehe :3

[MelTheLittleOne]

You got the double bass! Please do a cover of note to self by from first to last!

[saladsfriend]

Cobus is turning really commercial.. cares more about being a showman than playing more complex stuff

[HarnessDavid]

@saladsfriend He didn't start out trying to play complex stuff. He just plays what fits the song in his opinion.

[pjb453]

@saladsfriend hes an awesome drummer who cares hes getting the reignition he deserves

[killanator3]

@saladsfriend Hes not trying to show off his skills, hes just merely showing a way to alternately play the song on the drums

[gibson00000000000000]

miss the old cobus :/

[flyyyyylikeag6]

Now, I really want to start drumming :)

[XxDragonZxX100]

Best NAME EVER- Cobus Lit My Worst Enemy Ever

[lovelybones271]

Wow you are the best drummer i have ever heard i hope one day you become famous because i would buy your album.

[meikythebest]

@deedlebag I want to marry you right now!! S2

haha joke, but you have talent

love from uruguay

[BearHands31]

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!

[RickTHEBassist15]

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.

[XxXBlackRainxXx1]

@space78511

hes not one of his videos shows that he plays in a church and you can tell its the same place by looking at this video and the other one broski

[JonisandtheDolphin]

Every Now And Then Cobus Kicks the Living Shit Out of Drumming :)

[TheTorkerman]

Clean, Precise, sharp, Best covers on youtube. Nuf said! RSA Represent!!

[MusicEqualsAwesome44]

This guy's good, what kind of sweat bands is he using?

[XxXBlackRainxXx1]

It's funny cause he's doin this in a church :)

[space78511]

@XxXBlackRainxXx1 hes playing in a studio

[RadioShave]

@XxXBlackRainxXx1 0.0 what! are you telling me this isn't a christian song?!?! u have got to be kiding me

[SuperCoolDomino]

I just seen the option to watch Cobus in 3D. My life is complete.

[pierre19kwl]

they are 87 jealous peoples...

[DeebzofDemacia]

90's music!!!!! WOOOOT!

[NuttyK2]

คิงเจ๋งเกินไปละ ฮานับถือคิงบะ

[lhaselgrove]

...and just when I thought I was good, I have to watch Cobus, and realize how badly I truly suck!!! Thanks for remotivating me to up my drumming game Cobus!!!

[DeebzofDemacia]

@lhaselgrove It's okay, hes a demi-god, his dad is Chuck Noris and his mom is the drummer from Skillet, so don't feel bad, you are probably really good :D

[lhaselgrove]

@DeebzofDemacia Thanks for the kind words. I am good, just not that good. Motivation to get better!



[xXHaleyXx190]

@DeebzofDemacia Haha you do realize that the drummer from Skillet is probably a little younger than he is?

[beeniefide]

@lhaselgrove fair play for taking it on the chin, most people give up after watching cobus play. it's not a competition mind, its just lots of musicians with lots of different styles playing the same, beautiful instrument.

[lhaselgrove]

@beeniefide Hey. Thanks for the comment. Trust me, I will never stop playing drums. I would had that any musician would quit playing their instrument because someone is better. There is always someone better, and should drive the musician to add to his/her own arsenal. My son actually just showed me your video a few weeks ago where you are wearing your "Kick Ass" costume. Too funny. The scuba superhero outfit works as you truly kick ass!! Keep up the great guitar work.

[beeniefide]

@lhaselgrove unfortunately i cant take credit for that as its not me. it's a video in my favourites but yes that guy is fantastic. his screen name is 331Erock. look him up for more videos.

[WhenSongsCollide]

I'm sorry, Mr. Allen Shellenberger.  He didn't mean to ruin your song. R.I.P., Allen

[bboyLilking]

new years resolution is to learn drums thanks to Cobus! :D

[newandjune]

it's no surprise to me i am my own worst enemy

'cause every now and then i am my own worst enemy?

[whosbluegrass]

@newandjune i noticed that too. its in place of cause every now and then i kick the living shit outa me.

[DethroneME]

My fucked-up internet connection is preventing me from Cobus-gasm... x(

[bfitnessjoe]

Cobus sits on the stool then turns the GODMODE switch on...

@mcave149 The Camera Dolly

[harlrowerocks123]

i bet everytime cobus is told to sound bad, hes like "how do i do that?"

[EnchantedRecords]

omg

[Dunksta981]

One of the best things about you as a drummer is that you look like you have so much fun when you play :)

[hadododo6]

awesome cover. love the double bass parts you added in

[NafoK1]

YOUTUBE SUX

[RikuSage]

@NafoK1 And yet more then a billion people prefer to use youtube than any other video website.

[reyparks]

well...that song is better now

[sivcan8]

Cobus, the dude who deserves Respect. (y)

[Chrissern93]

Its his shirt and shorts!

I have to obtain them

challenge accepted!

[ilpadrinosx]

I figured out his trick! He nods on the offbeat rather than on the beat like us regular shmoes. I figured you out cobus ;)

[RectumPunch]

@ilpadrinosx Maybe it's just a backwards nod on the downbeats :X

[matiasbanfield23]

easy song but he is the best ^ ^

[mcave149]

did anyone notice that p lace in the sun was released in 1999

[oGxSkrilleX]

at first i would watch him to learn how to play a few songs, not its just for entertainment:p

[pepchael]

I love your studio!

[KahunaxMike]

i feel as though, with enough practice on the my drums, i could eventually sound like cobus's retarded cousin

[TheOneFalseMedia]

0:23 - 0:29 Does anyone else notice that rolling thingy? O_o

[alexwojtowicz96]

@TheOneFalseMedia Yeah, a camera is mounted on top of it.

[TheOneYouLearnToLove]

That awkward moment when you start the video and you're like "... i don't the the audio is synced with the vid- wait. Psh. This is Cobus. Nevermind."

can you teach me how  to play the drums?

[TheAmbury]

your my idol cobus ...

your so amazing....

[JackSpeweike]

nohting wrong with going back to the 90's rock music great work cobus

[DarthBoEar]

Personally, I like neither the sound of his drums, nor the sound of his cymbals. And I don't even like the way he plays, but that's just me, I'm not saying he's bad or anything, just not something I enjoy watching or listening.

[mcave149]

LAUS DEO SEMPER means to praise to god always. i praise you cobus

[sk8FreakOoo]

He is goin so hard! It rocks!

[MicroGlamMinecraft]

Remember to watch in 1080p!

[100Hasake]

he isnt as good as befo

[MicroGlamMinecraft]

@100Hasake You just haven't seen his best vids of drumming!

[BroKeNSC2]

@100Hasake in an interview he specifically states this series was meant to accompany the music rather than show his skill.

WANTED:Cobus Potgieter, Cobus has been found of murdering drum sticks, torturing cymbals and slaughtering drums. If you see Cobus BE ALERT his hands are considered lethal weapons and If found please return him to the local police station.

[lilromeo200789]

I wonder if he hit one of those mics :P But really really good job.

Cobus don't even give a fuck, too much swag. Making my favorite songs sound a million times better! =)

[thenewTF]

You know your pro when you have your own dolly setup.

[SwedishBrewery]

Chuck Norris & Cobus should make a band ^^

[Mw2MiNiMaN]

Cobus Potgieter makes me proud to be a drummer.

[MrDrumosity]

@Mw2MiNiMaN



Me Too!!!!!!

[diperrimax]

double bass is for cheaters. 

[skamakozi]

@diperrimax or, you know, people who wish to use both feet to play the bass drum.

[lefd2511775973]

i loved this song... it used to be good... now that u did this i more than love it haha :D

[ericmarshall19]

because every now and then i am my own worst enemy? lyrics fail

[kaijojo]

@ericmarshall19 you dont understand? retard..fail

[ericmarshall19]

@kaijojo thats not the lyrics asshole look it up

[LucPachet]

@ericmarshall19 Its a clean version.

[firepants20]

@ericmarshall19 It's a clean version of the song -.-

[ATPTFmusic]

Why don't all these super epic guys like Cobus get together and start a band? I'm pretty sure they would make some really decent money... just saying... i know money isn't everything, but it sure does help! :D

[LuckyLevi17]

Cobus - I don't know if you still check these comments.. but I would love to know exactly what fill you're doing at 2:42 with the double hits on the kick drum? My feet aren't very quick yet but could I do a similar fill with both feet on the kick drum?

[testruun]

@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.

[beglebite]

@testruun i think he is doing the heel toe thing, because the front half of his foot goes sideways, unless he has three pedals, which i doubt

[MrFancyPantsHoH]

@testruun he does use heel toe, but to say one's harder than the other is simply not true, to actually be able to preform heel toe is harder but to have complete control over slide is more of a challenge than with heel toe (ie. make sure you don't accidentally slip it in for 16th's and 32nd's ) because it's so similar to your normal style of play if you're a heel up player. :)

[ignavus11]

cobus beats his drums harder than chris brown beat rihanna

[1988plg]

@ignavus11 COUNT IT

[tilghman17]

@ignavus11 That is Really Fu**ed up and yet really funny at the same time........LOL

[JackSpeweike]

@27pageboy why is rebecca black even a difficalty

[duedrengen1337]

@27pageboy where is the expert+ stuff lol? he is a great drummer, but nothing technically hard in this track. Drumming is all about groove and feel, please don't categorize drummers in difficulty...

[thejayman1125]

@27pageboy the only difficulty you have is spelling beginner

[kraljevo8]

@thejayman1125 LOL

[squrell166]

@27pageboy i think 85 people cobus potgieter and failed

[kapwnedinthevag]

i miss the old cobus. i know youre changing as a drummer, but the old flair seems to be missing. youre still getting into it, and i can tell youre having fun, but your inspiration seems to stem from a different source now. i saw several flashes of the old cobus in there, but it was mostly just clean and simple. as an atheist, i dont believe in god, but i believe playing in that church made a difference to you and to your drumming, and i think thats what made people like watching you.

[Chubbz1642]

Oh, Cobus. You never disappoint me man.

[xxFallenTrooper]

how the hell do you headbang when you drum and your headsets dont come off? My always slip off haha :P

[ThankYou4TheRice]

feel like the noise gate is too high on everything

[H1GhVoL7aGe]

@ThankYou4TheRice

Yeah but i thinks its to overpower the orginal drums so we dont hear them

[alaitain]

damum cobus is so great. 

[mrssehrgeil]

this is better than the original

[djsoundfigure]

[70nebby]

everything is just so clean! he inspires me to drop the guitar and pick up drumming!

[drummerguy4gdmbfmv]

@70nebby thats what I did and that is the best decision I made my whole life

[forbasketballonly]

@70nebby

it's hard man. Ive been playing for 4 years and i'm still caught in that little blurred area between good and great. I'm not even halfway as good as cobus. But go for it, it's such a versatile instrument, love it.

[corbisez6]

@70nebby do both :D

[schwarzie1229]

@70nebby Seeing him play makes me wish I would have focused more attention on drums. I play 4 instruments so the drums are kind of neglected.

[buzzingbee25]

@70nebby I did exactly that. look at me (pic) i play drums all day ;-p

[dRuMzILLa52483]

Not of this world shirt! :D
