  • Dude, that was awesome! A little fast at times but thats what playing live is. Great Job! Love this song.

  • Very Nice!

  • dude you freaking rock you played that song to the t good job keep rocking bro

  • wow never heard of this song!!

  • Excellent job bro,..Robert Sweet has some the most simple, gorgeous beats ,and fills,.thanks for showng them off!\

    My favorite Stryper song by the way!

  • great job on it. i also think its overlooked. i also feel that its one of thier best

  • Absolutely amazing. I love this song, and agree it's one of Stryper's best and more overlooked.

    I recently saw them on their 25th annyversary tour in Madrid and was like being 17 again!

    Thanks for posting the video.

  • dude, you rocked this freakin song. great job

  • you are great bro! And Stryper is great of course ..saw them this year on the 25th anniversary tour in Myrtle Beach, SC

  • I heard this as my daughter was checking it out and she had the treble down so the drums were prominent and I at first thought it was Robert Sweet, Dude you kick on the drums, I saw them live back in the day and RS was nutz, he used his head on gongs and tore up some drummage. I would put him in the same class as Tommy Lee, Rikki Rocket, Neil Peart and whats his name from metallica. you could make it big time with your playing.

  • Thank you very much! I miss the old days of the 1980's. I've seen Stryper only 2 times but they (RS) was a huge influence on me.

  • @thekevenator most of the drummers you listed suck man! lol Neil Peart is awesome, but Lars, Tommy and Rikki are all terrible, specifically Rikki and Lars, Tommy is the best of those 3, Rikki the worst.

    Nothing personal of course, just stating my opinion, and that of many, many others

  • @thekevenator,

    Dude, Tommy Lee couldn't touch Robert Sweet with a 1,000 foot pole. Robert Sweet is so much more involved and accentuated than Tommy Lee and his "drug head" approach. Neil Peart? Totally different Jazz / Rock style than Robert, but skill wise I'd say they're equal. Rikki Rocket? Are you kidding?

  • was the original guy kicking those bass drums like this or is that how you "upgraded" this one? awesome work man. Good job.

  • Thank you very much! Yep, that is definitely me adding in my own flavor to this song with the double kicks.

  • @cvhf650 According to a biography of Stryper that came out a few years ago, Robert Sweet recorded the entire "Soldiers Under Command" album with a single bass drum and peddle although there are definitely spots where it sounds like he is playing a double.

    I taught myself to play drums to that album and this is probably my favorite song on the album and one of my top 5 from Stryper.

  • @seanmc31076 That's impossible. He had to have used two bass drums for Together Forever, The Rock That Makes Me Roll, Reach Out and Surrender.

  • @gspot27 I agree but I know what I read. Maybe Robert Sweet was just bragging.

  • excellent EXCELLENT cover. very tight and atteneion to detail. I am a bass playe, so that was Strypers weakest link in my opinion...the bassist. The vocals and the guitar work was what made them stand out to me. Listening to this makes me realize how good the drummer had to be.

  • Robert Sweet is one of the best rock drummers, bar none, of all time. Highly and sorely underrated.

  • Awesome dude! love it.

  • excellent song to pick bro! thought id never see this one online smooth easy beat but the fills are murder! great cover hope to see more!

  • Excellent job.

  • Best Stryper song ever!

  • OMG...dude, you are AWESOME!!!!!

    This is one of my favorite Stryper songs..such great guitar and drum work!!

    Im so glad there are dedicated musicians out there like you that are keeping these incredible songs relevant and available for everyone to enjoy!

    Thanks a million!

  • Wow! #1 you rock and #2 are you single? Kidding, okay only half. SERIOUSLY - I LOVE that song! Always have. Was at work desperately trying to find streaming Stryper when I first heard this. Finally found ya YouTube. Wow! Awesome song and that's some awesome drumming man!

  • Stryper is my favorite band and that was an awesome job! I'm not a drummer but I know a good one when I see one. Keep it up!

  • Why are you NOT in a band? Stage fright? You need to either get live in front of real people or get in the studio and be a studio musician. You're good!

  • Thanks man! It is not a stage fright issue. I have been playing in front of people since I was 12. It is more of a timing issue in this stage of my life.

  • Love it!

  • I really like the way you play. Love all the Stryper- great stuff.
