  • Best drum solo of all time!!!!!

    

  • chocobo theme final fantasy 7!

  • This entire song was an improvised B-side made by High School Kids. The drum line is a sped up school marching band drum line.

  • @joeyxdope ...someones been reading cracked...

  • @joeyxdope That's right Joey. Made up on the spot and done in 2 takes. It was later rerecorded and released but was never as good as the original. This doesn't sound like the original either. The shingle cracking at the beginning seems to have had something done to it.

  • @TCBINAFLASH1 the original is uploaded by jnwhere on you tube. not much different. i can tell by the opening riff.

  • @denisjl100 Thanks much, that's it alright. I better have known something was wrong with this one since my drum teacher was the same guy Ron Wilson took from. Both sadly gone now. Thanks again.

  • 9 people can't surf!

  • thumbs up if you pee on the side of the toliet to make it quieter:D

  • great movie!

  • did an octopus play the drums on this song?

  • I just came to hear the joker laugh in the beginning 00:02

  • everbody loves the drums and they are badass but the guitar is just as badass too. killer tunes for us that grew up then. LUCKY US.

  • I used to think that the laughing at the beginning was The Riddler from Batman.

  • zer;jhalrkj'rméj'rlakjrzjkré

  • I remember the good old days when. Oh wait. No. It's always sucked.

  • @rebeccatrishel Haha, me too.

  • @rebeccatrishel Yeah, and they didn't even link here.

  • It's amazing that this song was made up on the spot.

  • @Bassbait Not really, it's a pretty simple song. Much more complex things have been improvised.

  • @Clefaria Simplicity or complexity isn't really the point though, but that such an iconic song was made up in seconds on the spot.

  • @SageofHistory It became "iconic" by pure serendipity, though. It's not like it's some masterpiece of a song.
