This is the best cover I’ve seen of the song so far on KZread

Found this in 2023.. Dude! This is the most on point interpretation of Copland’s drumming I’ve ever heard. Even those little personalizations were so coherent with the style…. Impressive!

same here.. fantastic cover!!!

That's a great sounding ride too.

Im not a drummer or musician but I really like drums. This tune has always been a favorite of mine from The Police. I purchased this LP album way back in 84 when I still lived in PR and did not speak or understand a word of English. This is fantastic! I can really appreciate the talent that The Police‘s drummer has through this cover that is clean and well executed to my ears. I enjoyed every bit of it and now cannot stop watching. THANK YOU!

Second to at least Stewart Copeland. 🤔 But yeah. This is tight.

Mastering the ride. Great sound!

Perfect timing, tuning and sound. Just great!

snare tuning and ride are tight. love Copeland's bright snare and copius use of ride/bell

It's a pleasure to see and hear you playing! The way it should be! Just perfect!

Righteous! I've always appreciated Copeland's masterful use of the hi-hat and on this track I really dig how he works the crown of the ride during the fade out. Thanks so much for putting this together and sharing it with us...

Good Job you got the feel of Stewart

This has to be Stewart, Sting's like you can't post this without me in it

PERFECT 10 in my books Bro,You whipped it good!!.....................Thanks for sharing the awesomeness!!

Jesus bro you absolutely killed it on this. Guitarist and closet drummer myself, but you even nailed all the little hi-hat flourishes, feel and kick syncopations and other Stewart trademarks perfectly... super impressive!

You are the Rythmatist ! Perfect !

Another incredible performance. As a bass player, I focus in on the drummers bass drum and ride/hi-hat, You playing was spot on. I thought your stick was breaking on your ride cymbal because of the camera angel :) Anyways, great job and thanks for sharing with us.

He seems to be using a wide angle lens on the camera. That's why the image appears a little distorted

Best Synch II drum cover on youtube! Enjoyed watching!!!

Great cover. Commenting because this deserves more views.

Probably the most accurate cover I've seen so far. Plus, you gotta love K's.

Great, really great!

Wow! You fuckin' nailed that! SICK!!! This is my favorite song by The Police because of the drums. I'm a guitar player and l love the dark chords that Andy plays, but the drums are what make this song. Right on, bro! I can't stop watching.

fantastic. just fantastic.

Impressive, I'm learning this now for a cover, l love the way the rest of the my band says, "it's easy, dude"..... Nice job though.... Lots more going on than people think.

Excellent drumming, Sam! Very, very nice!

The best drum cover by far!

It's great to find a such a good cover of this song! Subscribed!

One of my favorite drummers and you nailed it beautiful. I am starting think you are Stewart himself hiding from the camera :).

We know it's not Stewart because Sam is playing matched grip and Stewart always played traditional. Sam does nail it here though. I agree with you on that!

Was thinking the same, it's really _too_ close to the original. Amazing

this is the only angle a drum cover should ever be shot from, its perfect.

Great cover, great choice, great skills !

😳 wow!! Awesome sound, playing and skills!! ❤️ It! Thanks for sharing. Cheers!

You are awesome!!!!!!

Beautiful snare drum sound.

That was such a great cover. Lovely feel, timing and tone. You really captured the vibe that Copeland put down on the original recording. Bravo ! 👍😎

Huge fan of this. Great work Sam.

Sooo good!!!

Jesus, man...you have me here....well done

You deserve the projection and the presence of a TAMA set .. The cross ticking on a TAMA snare is the sweetest sound in drumming. You get the sticking and a secondary echo from within the snare. Stewart give the man a kit damn it!

Holy cow. Fantastic.

Great drumming bud enjoyed it very much

Dude... ridiculously good.

Good one keep it up

A alma e todas as intenções do Copeland estão contidas nessa execução perfeita! Parabéns!

Is that you, Stewart? LOL

Awesome performance!

you nailed this! fairly sure Stu himself would approve m8!

Amigo, I LOVED it!

FANTASTIC

You're a great drummer, keep it up

Excellent feeling and timing, incredible flow!!! Saludos amigo!

Excellent!

That was brilliant my friend, firstly your drum set sounds amazing, than your technique on the high-hat and ride were spot on, Stewart would be proud of that. Well held & timed which is an extremely difficult drum set to cover. Btw I’m only an air drummer to Copeland’s chops 😄

Very well done, Sir. May I ask You to play So Lonely? Regards from Brazil.

Wow, you crushed it man, great work!

Awesome!

Sick! Great angle for aspiring drummers...Thank you!!!

How did i just find this ,,,, Nice brother ...

Nailed it. Beautiful sounding kit and cymbals! That ride!!!

Amazing!!!!!

BOSS JOB! Played unapologetically with great conviction and confidence! Beautiful!!!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👍🏾👍🏾

It's a pleasure to watch your performance and to get to understand how Mr. Copeland has created this incredible rhythm.

Awesome cover the police are amazing

Nice work. Awesome flippin song

Ok Sam, you have my attention. Great show to detail. Copeland would be happy with this caver. Nice hi hat work. I like the ride cymbal, especially when you ride the bell.

amazing stuff

Nice work- bass drum sounds great, pro-job on playing the high hat, your skills are very impressive. keep on rockin!

id love to sing in a band with this drummer hes great his high hat is killer!!

Great job.

Awesome drumming! The more I listen to this song the more I enjoy it. Stewart Copeland is a drumming genius.

NOT THE EASIEST PIECES TO PLAY BUT YOY DID IT REALLY REALLY WELL.CONGRATULATIONS FROM ARGENTINA!!!!

...nailed it ....love Stewart's playing ....he makes music and lends his self to the song ....Sting would be nothing or not much without Stewart and Andy ....

The sound mix and the tempo are spotless. Congrats my man.

Excellent job mate!! I was worried about your stick surviving though!! Ha!!

Very tidy performance! Loved it!

Fantastic! The best drums cover.

Bloody fantastic mate!

That's a phenomenal performance....better than Copeland himself... could do these days...

Fantastic cover!!....You absolutely Nailed it bro🤟🥁🥁🤟

your hi-hat and ride work is brilliant

great cover. great song from the greatest drummer. best with cymbals for sure

Superb. Fucking great work.

Excellent cover. SC's playing is super hard to cover because it is so personal and so full of details that are mostly improvised. His hi hat playing is so unique and full of swing, sometimes played ahead, sometimes behind the beat. You have captured his expression really well.

YOUR COVER SIMPLY ROCKS!!! Very well done!!

Clean!! Perfect!

Such feel and powerful groove.

OUT FU*KING STANDING!!!!! WELL DONE!!

Yes! Great Job! !!!

Coated reverse black dot on the snare. Snare head of champions. Used that myself for years, could get a great crisp snare sound with those heads

Dude. Excellent!

Great job man! I’ve always liked the relationship between the bass and snare in this song. I really adds to the urgency of the track.
