Most commenters are not getting this clip. Jazz drummers always play the tune. To do so, you must be as intimate with the melody, harmony and structure as any of the other players. Gadd is demonstrating how he might play brushes to this tune, by singing the melody out loud. If he were playing with an ensemble he would continually sing the melody silently to himself. This has nothing to do with Gadd's singing abilities. It's about musicianship, something 98% of drummers need a good lesson in.

here are the lyrics for anyone who wanted to sing along:
Chorus: ta ta ta ta ta da, ta ta ta do da, ta ta ta ta ta ta ta, ta do do ta (repeat)
