The Michael Jackson Tribute mini-series is me paying my respects to one of the most influential musicians to ever have lived. I absolutely LOVED jamming along to these song by MJ, the grooves are an incredible amount of fun to play :)
RIP MJ.
I have to emphasize, I know calling this a "cover" is wrong, seeing as I only PARTLY stayed true to the song's drums (or lack thereof), through the WHOLE song I play some variations of the beats, phrasing and fills, since 99% of what I play is improvised. Even though I have done my fair share of session and studio drumming, that has little to zero effect on these video's, I kind of see them as live performances. I'm NOT aiming to be accurate to the original drums, I'm just aiming to enjoy myself. And I thoroughly succeeded in doing that, might I add :)

I like the fun that is coming out from your videos. And this little moves that make them even more enjoyable, for example hitting your ride cymbal from the under.
3:25 BEST PART! If I could play like that I would have that reaction aswell :P kidding! I have to agree with my buddy 01Ralph 1:32 to 1:50 is amazing! Go Cobus!!! Forgive me Michaels fans but this cover kicks ass!!! F****n A!!!! xD
Cobus, not only do I get chills down my spine from your skills on the drums, but in every single cover you just have a smile, and the energy that gives me a great vibe! You just have fun man keep it up!
that smile at the end thou.. :D
this is the best of your Michael Jackson Tribute mini-series !
still amazing after 5ys.
After another 5ys, still amazing.
@@vwxyzxAfter another 5 years, it’s still amazing
oh man his snare is tuned so perfectly, couple that with the equally perfectly timed rimshots over the snare sound from MJs track. what a pleasant THWACK sound!
The sound of your kit makes me wet my pants :D
I'm so jealous : ( Mine sounds like poo ;(

Cobus Potgieter and Fede Rabaquino forever. Both of you guys are great! You play that song like no one else!

This is one of my favourite videos of yours. I love the song, and I think you have done an amazing job capturing the energy of the song, giving the song what it needs, and having fun with it as well. Great job, I love watching your videos. They inspire me so much, and your playing has inspired me a lot over the last few years!
this is the best of the MJ vids
man... you are better than half of the professional drummers i've seen! oh... and i learned to play drums by watching you... thanks man. keep rockin dude! :)
WOW man, you tore that one up WAY harder than usual! fantastic job
Best of the MJ series. way to go man!
Dude your energy is freaking awesome..

Your great buddy, the biggest compliment i can say to you is. There are so many amazing drummers, your amazing AND you look like you love the music and you have a passion. Thats one in a million and it only adds to the feel
kudos, im a drummer and im from the john bonham school of let your life out on your drums and its cool to see you have fun with it man
DUDE 236-240 is amazing. Bloody brillant once again. Just so you know...this video series is being passed along the MJ communities...Be proud of yourself. Major
He was so young yet talented. You're a prodigy Cobus. Every video of yours reminds me how talent comes from sincerity and humility. I started playing the drums watching your videos despite learning two other instruments already. No regrets. It's cross contributed into spicing up my playing with other instruments.
I think this is the best drum cover of any song on TH-cam it is INSANLY BEAST
so groovy man! loving the tom beat in middle
i think this is the best out of the MJ series. amazing
RIP Michael Jackson
dude you're drumming is unique i love it
amazing really amazin mj its been proud for this
Guy....you rocked the hell out of that tune! This is the first time I ran into your videos.
dude my favorite MJ song with a badass drum cover, just perfect!!!
This dude is simply the best! Pure natural talent! Sooooooo fluid!
Great druming man. Your covers are one of the best in the whole YOU TUBE. Keep it up. You rock!
Just love the way you play and how you get along well with your drum covers.
And i LOVE your style of playing!
music is already good, this guy is playing even better!
very good!
I seen this when i was in my early 20s, and i still come back to this video.
Best drum cover ever 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Superb Mr Cobus
Amazing, THE best drummer on youtube.
No contest..
i love the way you hit your hats!!! i've been watching all of them and they are crazy
the best man on drums I ever see! good, so good work! I like you stile!
you always smile while you are playing, love that
great cover man
What else can I say that hasn't already been said? Except that of all the Cobus vids I've watched in amazement - this is my fave. I am admittedly a "toms" junkie, and the work you do at 1:35 is genius. I'm a bass player - did I see that your DVD includes bass jams as well?
-bruce
You are simply great!
I think that M.J. would be glad.
Good luck to you!
Been watching this video since you released it in 2009 and it is still incredible to this day boet !
awesome drumming! love you covers and solos :]
OMFG MAN ILOVE YOUR STYLE!
You are probably the best musician on TH-cam. Definately my favourite. Keep it up man :D
this a good way to remember M.J. , he would be so proud of you dude , R.I.P. M J
You Really ROCK man!!! Great Job.... I Like your Cover Ver. of Drumming with all MJ Song.... Keep on the good work.....
My favorite from the MJ tribute series......awesome cover, keep it up !
your videos are real art! I like watching you playing, awesome!!! You're a real beast on drums! And what's also important is that you really enjoy what you're doing! I've seen drummers that play well but they don't have your energy and your passion! You're fantastic!
Still amazing after 7 years. You sir were my inspiration! Just looking back on some memories :£

You're AWESOMW dude! I just love your covers. You make all songs sound better than the original ones. KEEP IT UP!
R.I.P Michael Jackson
Absolutley fantastic drum cover! When people start saying something about MJ drum covers I though i was quite a bad idea since many of his drum beats are extremely simple, not because thats bad (Simplicity is not stupidity), but you actually got your own touch and character in the song! Amazing!
And what a sickass snaredrum sound, i've never heard anything like it?
You look like you are having fun with it!
Brilliant so it is!
no one else could do a drum cover to M.J but you made it rock!
i cant stop watching !!!! ur amazing !!!
i cant get enough of cobus specially his expressions.. get up and dance.. oh yeah..
DAAAMNNNN!!!man ! you are incredible
from 1:35 to 1:50 what a grea drum solo great drumming skills. i lke when all the drums are played , scrolling all the drum in tone.
I don't know why your MJ covers don't get as much attention as you others =/
this is my favorite, awesome!
I LOVE YOU COBUS
Man you are nuts!!! you have more talent than people that have been playing 30 40 years.... Epic man keep it up!
