I have always loved that despite chad Smith's skills, he doesn't overwhelm the music. There's no absurd fills or rolls. He fits instead of trying to compete with the guitar and lyrics.
That's why I love the Chili Peppers. They're all like that. John Frusciante is a virtuoso, but he allows plenty of room for Flea to shine through. Many bands you can't even hear the bass. Flea, John, and Chad are all world-class, but they have such phenomenal chemistry.
The best part of this video is the moment where Chad does nothing but sit and feel the guitar intro. Not a sound or movement. That's why he's the best drummer for this band, because he knows when to listen rather than play
Yeah, that was so deep.. Just look at him! It must have reminded him of something from the early days of RHCP -who knows? It almost made me cry when he took it in..

noticed that too. his demeanor slighly changed on that first bar. i dunno what came to mind, specially since he probably played that song hundreds of times in the last decade
@@pdrgalloI’ve always wondered it too. Like I guess playing it live where things are changed like tempo or sound slightly. But the pure recording in a studio setting may have just brought him back to that moment.
He really makes RHCP songs his very own. Like I try to imagine how other people would play this song and making it awkward. Chad really fit all the beats and fills right in the pocket to add the depth and flavor to this song we all love so much
That song is actually a poem by Anthony Kiedis about Hillel Slovak's death by OD'ing on heroin..Anthony and Flea were the ones that got him started on it... Jokes can get you beat up, chewed out, ghosted, banned.....I'd stop doing them if I were you. They really have no place in society anymore. Jokes rely on someone else's humiliation and/or de-construction to be funny..
Chad is obviously goated, but can we take a second to appreciate that, in this day and age, no one would dare to record vocals as raw as these and keep them. Call me crazy, but it just sounded so fresh and honest to me right now, love it
I think it‘s key to the Chili‘s success. Kiedis is not a proper singer - some may say he‘s a terrible singer but he has that SOMETHING in hid delivery that connects - and with ‚Under the bridge‘ that pretty much made them superstars. There are two Hendrix outtakes from the ‚Blood Sugar‘ album and Kiedis totally nails Jimi‘s vocals where most ‚proper‘ singers just sound off and forced when trying to cover Hendrix.
Their discogrophy truly is one for the ages. Can't Stop, Snow(Hey, Oh), Under The Bridge, Californication, Otherside, By the Way, Give It Away, Black Summer, Around the World, Rain dance Maggie, I mean the list goes friggin on and on!
Love how he slowly gets locked in. Seeing a natural musician at work doing their part to serve the song is like watching a lit candle burning. Doing what its supposed to do.
I don't know how many times I've heard this song, but rest assured, every time I listen to it, it brings me tears to my eyes. And you can see it in Chad, this song still reaches his heart and Chad probably has listened and played to it thousands of times. A song that will never get old and reach further generations.
Yeah, that was so deep.. Just look at him! It must have reminded him of something from the early days of RHCP -who knows? It almost made me cry when he took it in..
This makes me appreciate how much the drums and bass accent the vocals in the first half of the song. Also, Chad playing a backbeat somehow sounds better than 90% of drummers playing a backbeat.
@tranullius6087 His dynamics, like the way he hits the snare and the way he moves between the flat and the bell of the ride, are excellent too, and contribute to the overall pulse and feel of the groove.
Yeah, that was so deep.. Just look at him! It must have reminded him of something from the early days of RHCP -who knows? It almost made me cry when he took it in..
As someone who’s not a musician I appreciate his restraint and waiting till almost 3/4ths of the song is gone before he adds his full drums and it still works so well
Let this be a lesson to starting drummers...you can write a song 30+ years ago, perform it thousands of times, and still make little mistakes...but if you're having fun and loving your craft, people won't notice. So go easy on yourself. Chad will always be a legend ❤️
Also just be good enough that you continue on, if you stop then it’s obvious you made a mistake. The show must go on and all that. We are human, no one’s perfect, even drummers. Be so good that you can improv on your own music.
To some of the comments out there: I'm thinking he hasn't heard the original version in years. Not like, We're all used to. Those drum parts are really burnt in our minds, wether we can play them, or, not. Especially after hearing them, tons of times, since 1991.
I'm thinking every time he gets on the stage he's playing however he feels like playing, knowing it's his job to keep time, and provide his flair while not getting in the way of others. He's a great drummer and this stuff just flows out of him and I can see that whenever he performs. So the real question is has he ever played it like he did when recording the song since then? I certainly don't think he tries to or even cares to try. I think he wants to maintain the feel of the original recording and that's it, so I think the best way to say it, maintain the feel, but also play how you feel at the moment. To me that's how it seems he plays and it's always great because he's a great drummer with natural feel.

@tranullius6087 the difference is he is Chad Smith and you´re not.
I’m always mesmerized with Chad’s arrangements and execution on the drums. I’m not even a drummer. I play guitar. I’ve never heard a RHCP song where I didn’t think the drums were killer. Add a pinch of the rest of the band, and you’ve got timeless, unique music!
many do not stop to take this all in, and just how special it must have been to be there in person witnessing this. UTB is one of the most iconic memorable recognizable modern rock songs of all time. thx drumeo 'one time'.
Growing up on this music, personally i never cared for Red Hot chili peppers….after watching this channel, I’m convinced Chad Smith is a GOAT on the drums!!!
That's how a life should look like! Do what you love to do and you will allways stay young. Love this song but i love even more his energy and happynes this drums gave to him. Live long Chad!
I'm a guitar player not a drummer. But I am a fan of most of the artists you have come in, Chad certainly being one of those! It's very inspiring to see masters of their craft playing an instrument that I do not!
Wow, that was so deep.. Just look at him! It must have reminded him of something from the early days of RHCP -who knows? It almost made me cry when he took it in.. Chad Smith, you're a Master on the drums.
The first proper stadium gig i ever attended was RHCP in 2005. Still the best gig ive ever attended. Chad has been a massive inspiration to me for over 22 years. Love his playing and love the Chilis. Both legendary
Such an iconic early 90's song. It's like nothing else and Chad enforces the law that less is more to give this song the wings it needs. If this song didn't have the control that Chad uses it would have been destroyed. It would be very easy to drum this song to death.
Well... I'm a metal drummer for the biggest part, but for soooo many years now, NO other drummer in the world has me (always) in such pure awe like the master himself Mr. Chad f*ckin' Smith! Like - every drummer has his own sound, obviously, but there really is something outstanding about his playing wich I just can't explain that well - but feel! Biggest amount of respect for this guy, hands down! Much love from Germany to Chad and also Drumeo for this amazing session that gave us so much great content so far... ❤️
@@Unaltrobambino10 True. I was just making a joke about how high skilled musicians can basically be 1 hour hired studio musicians. Even those who rule fiver aint got much on the legends of the studio. Even Daft Punk was like "Why isnt our music as awesome as it could be..."...then they went and hired people like Niles Rodgers (one of the goats of disco funk rhythm guitar). And the rest is modern history....
there was this summer camp i used to go as a kid 13-15 years ago and this song was something like our anthem back then, woah man this bring back so many memories to all those people i met back then, all those nighs we cried with this song. Cheers lads to all of you, and to RHCP for making such a good track.
My favorite band, one of my 2 favorite songs by them - a legend Chad Smith just comes to drumeo and plays all the classics - a dream come true for me and 1000s of others :) Thank you to everyone involved, i will definitely rewatch this in the future, just as i always do with RHCP videos)
@tranullius6087As you said - to each his own. I don't think there's right or wrong choice. I just fell in love with the band from the very 1st listen, so i consider myself a huge fan, started listening to them ~ at an age of 10, and i'm 31 now, so yes, technically their 80s stuff is not something i heard at the time it came out. But that said my favorite album is BSSM, which, still came out in 1991 before i was born :) i'm definitely NOT someone who "judges" RHCP fans if they're enjoying mostly more recent albums - i think there are amazing songs in all of their releases, and i am also happy i got to see them perform live and they always play songs from different eras in each of their shows - which to me says that they themselves are proud of everything they put out there, not only some specific albums/songs
My God this guy is talented - and on more than just the drums. It was 30 years ago during the NHL lockout that we sat front-row behind the team bench at the Great Western Forum for a celebrity charity hockey game. While chicks were literally climbing over us trying to get at Jason Priestly on the other side of the glass, Chad was in goal keeping Dave Coulier frustrated. Chad does it all.
Hey hey ...I think we've all been waiting for this one .... This is commitment and identity ....you just know it's Tommy ....He made me want to play like a "rock " drummer back in the 80s....Awesome with Ozzy and Randy ....love you Tommy...
As a recovering heroin addict; This song will always, forever, Hit hard. As a drummer? It’s very cool to see him take a different, still laid back, but, selecting new places to just change some emphases on specific parts of the drum track. Great and totally enjoyed the video. Thanks yall.!
The greatest drummer to play when listening to the songs the first time! He played it better than that studio version. This dude should be the drummer for RHCP
This goes to show how difficult it is being a high performing musician, just like a sports man. It's really hard to be in top performance shape consistently over the years, especially with instruments that require some degree of physical strength such as drums. Much respect for Chad Smith and all the oldschool drummers that are still pushing their boundaries.
Yeah, that was so deep.. Just look at him! It must have reminded him of something from the early days of RHCP -who knows? It almost made me cry when he took it in..
Absolutely nailed it on the first listen!
It's not even fair to test him with all these unknown artists and songs.
TRHCP should hire this guy!
Unlike Mike Portnoy, who needed hours to get a simple Tool song! 🤣
😂
well DUH! its been on the radio so he probably knows it...hes such a cheater really
Chad Smith hears RHCP for the first time
no way😅
is this mf real
LOL 😂
He nailed it on the first take TBH. And I didn’t even know that Will Ferrell could play the drums.
He plays SO well for a deaf man
I love how Chad just comes to drumeo for fun. Doesn’t take it at all serious and has a blast around the kit
All the videos with Chad have been recorded a long time ago on the same day/days.
@@mikkelr1225yup, he probably flown up for a few days to get a few lessons in. Hes super chill though.
If you go hear about his audition to the RHCP that is just the way he is. Just walks in being Chad and nails everything.
He just enjoys of playing. Music what he loves..
@@serpserpserpfrfr. They upon seeing him were like NOPE THIS AINT THE GUY. but when they heard his vibe and how he just stays in the pocket and grooves. Done deal
I have always loved that despite chad Smith's skills, he doesn't overwhelm the music. There's no absurd fills or rolls. He fits instead of trying to compete with the guitar and lyrics.
Well put.
That’s how it should be fr
Absolutely, he plays for the song.
Like one Richard Starkey.
That's why I love the Chili Peppers. They're all like that. John Frusciante is a virtuoso, but he allows plenty of room for Flea to shine through. Many bands you can't even hear the bass. Flea, John, and Chad are all world-class, but they have such phenomenal chemistry.
I love how u can just see the memories in his eyes
Nailed it
The best part of this video is the moment where Chad does nothing but sit and feel the guitar intro. Not a sound or movement. That's why he's the best drummer for this band, because he knows when to listen rather than play
Yeah, it's almost like he's played this song before or something
I would hope so it's literally his bands song XD
For what i saw in other videos too, i think he is a really funny guy 😂
yupp. this is also his band so he made the drum arrangement😭
Yeah, that was so deep.. Just look at him!
It must have reminded him of something
from the early days of RHCP -who knows?
It almost made me cry when he took it in..
it’s crazy how the song instantly takes him back to the mindset he had back then and feeling of the song. Obvious timeless talent

I was actually really surprised by all his mistakes...

You are so right! Thank God I lived those
times as kid and teen. This generation is lost..
It's insane how well the composition of each instrument go so well on this track.
damn, you beat me
I love watching him enjoy playing the drums. ❤
All the comments here, this one.
I always knew Flea and Frusciante are great musicians, but it's only since I watch Drumeo that I realize Smith also is a master in his field.

All of them have to be there including Flea, Frusciante, Kiedis, and Smith. That's the timeless and unique music.

3:37 he fkd up but didnt have too much pride to make em restart, that i admire
dude has nothing to prove
hes played it so much he was probably more focused on what he was gonna eat for supper
Its the stinky t-shirt he's been wearing for months!
He just did what he would do in any live performance. I didn’t catch it until you pointed it out
Gotta' play it through!!
One of the first lessons I ever learned....

The first proper stadium gig i ever attended was RHCP in 2005. Still the best gig ive ever attended. Chad has been a massive inspiration to me for over 22 years. Love his playing and love the Chilis. Both legendary
Chad may as well play all the other RHCP songs next time, this session is still giving us goodies
The amount of emotion you see in him during the intro... Wow.
That first chorus and that up beat change with the bass pick up is sooo perfect. Does it every time.
Intensity.. heart... happiness.... and lots of groove. Thats what I feel when I listen and see him playing
The Best music channel right now so far
Such an iconic early 90's song. It's like nothing else and Chad enforces the law that less is more to give this song the wings it needs. If this song didn't have the control that Chad uses it would have been destroyed. It would be very easy to drum this song to death.

Chad does it all.
Omg after all these years I still love Chad
This gave me chills. Took me bsck to my early teen years. This beat is the hook of the song.
This song's the reason I picked up an instrument as a teenager. Blew me away back then, still does right now.
Hearing the original in my head we've known for so long, and hearing this version was EPIC!!! Always wanted to learn drums
His kit sounds massive! Could be the most perfect snare sound I've ever heard.
So magical, just zones in to that place and its the standard, what a genius
Nice to see how much he enjoys to play the song after so many years. It's a great song
This has been my favorite song since the 2000s when i first heard it as a kid.
Good to see young generation being so talented!! Don’t ever give up on playing!
One of the best right there sitting in your studio
Hey hey ...I think we've all been waiting for this one .... This is commitment and identity ....you just know it's Tommy ....He made me want to play like a "rock " drummer back in the 80s....Awesome with Ozzy and Randy ....love you Tommy...
Who would’ve thought Chad Smith playing RHCP is what we would need in life?
No body ever thought that maybe if your considering ending life this band would do it
As a recovering heroin addict;
This song will always, forever,
Hit hard.
As a drummer? It’s very cool to see him take a different, still laid back, but, selecting new places to just change some emphases on specific parts of the drum track.

The fact that I've been looking for a video with just this version for the past few days, and you upload it today, lol
Makes it look so easy!!! What a legend!
Chad might as well be the ambassador for drumeo.
It’s cool how a distinct sound you hear in a song is sometimes just a drum stick hitting the rim of the drum.
A true master on the drums.
Thank you Chad for the decades of musical brilliance!
chad smith is SOOOO good really love his live performance...super enjoyable
Deep in his feels here, you can hear it through his hands
Yeah, that was so deep.. Just look at him!

It almost made me cry when he took it in..
I keep watching any Chad videos. Idk, he just seems like a really cool, chill dude lol makes me enjoy his drumming more.
My favorite RHCP song.
Should know this. Thx Chad. Many years of memories
I wasnt sure if Chad would nail it but man it was perfect.
This dude seems like he won't ever quit. Gonna die at the kit
The cinematography in this is awesome
I’m just becoming a fan of Chad smith these days, I look forward to these drumeo videos with him in them 👏
Drumming is a beautiful, amazing, full body musical experience.
The joy you bring with this! Thank you Chad and thank you team of Drumeo.
