Whoever came up with this content concept deserves a raise. So sick.

Imagine being able to avoid that song for all these years. That's the real talent 😅
-
I find it funny that Megadeth’s drummer actually slowed the part down. Brilliant playing.
-
What a super sweet guy. I love how gentle so many metal guys are.
-
Such a humble, ego-free and super cheerful dude, while also being tremendously talented. What a great human.
-
This whole concept of a musician playing a song blind and creating their own version is PERFECT!!!!!!!! It completely shows the beauty of interpretation with music.
-
His version really made this song sound like ballad which was fucking dope.
-
Humble guy, took every opportunity he could to give advice to others. People should aspire to be like this guy
-
It would be rad for them to do this with every instrument independently and then put all the new parts together and see how insanely different it is from the original
-
This is the best example of how a song can be changed so dramatically by the drums.
-
Drumming in half time really makes it even more of an emo track, and made the contrast when he sped up for the chorus feel even better.
-
Watching the drummer of Megadeth take notes is the most wholesome thing I think I could ever imagine. This is adorable
-
His version feels like an old school rock track. It’s awesome how changing one instrument change the song so much.
-
To some people it may be a surprise he’s not familiar with this song but when you’re an active working musician it is easy to live under a rock.
-
Metal dudes are always some of the nicest guys I've ever met.
-
DID HE PLAY THE FIRST TAKE IN HALF TIME ???? brought a whooole different vibe to the song
-
I don't know much about Megadeth or Metal music, but from being the drummer of a band called Megadeth, he's way more chill and humble then I could've imagined.
-
His version of this song has such a Foo Fighters vibe. Well done!
-
This is the kind of guy you want in your band. You can see how seriously he takes his job. Pure dedication and professionalism.
-
This version needs an official recording! 🔥🔥🔥
