For me the two best Skynyrd tunes are Simple Man and Tuesday's Gone. Skynyrd obviously has a large catalog of great songs but those two are stratospheric to me.
This song was me and my Dads song. He passed on January 22, 2018 from cancer. This song makes me tear up everytime but it means so much to me. Killer Job dude!
My dad and I had the same connection from this song as well.. he loved watching the live video of all of them playing together. Your not alone man. I know it's a 4 year later response, but I hope you are doing well 👍

I have so many memories with this song. This and free bird was me and my dads song, I tear up when I hear it. I’m lucky enough to still have my dad here.
I've been playing Simple Man in a Southern rock cover band since 1990, and I have to say that Simple Man has changed a lot since then. I also started with the studio version and today I play more of one of the many live versions. Your cover is drummed so confidently. Hats off. The sound is also excellent. 👍👍🥁🥁
Your like a machine bro!...spot on, and the audio sounds well balanced...Sure is soothing to hear Ronnie's voice!..Sadly such a tragic end to a band with so much talent that rose up to super stardom so quickly without any internet or youtube in there day..Epic they was!!
Hi Ewan, I'm a drummer man just hitting stage this year, i certainly appreciate your video's, I have used them to educate and practice new songs on the setlist - please keep them going - they are well made and very helpful. Great job and thank you!
I've watched most of your videos, and this one is the best mic setup so far. Perfectly balanced, nothing stands out or disappears among all. Please keep this setup.
I like to listen to real music. I was reading Proverbs, and this kept trying to sneak it's way into my mind. And I can say that this is a very nice song to have stuck in your head.
I'm such a music freak that I no longer listen to regular videos of a song, I gotta really hear that fckn shit being layed down, sometimes it's with the guitar, other times the bass, and in this case it was the drums, and I was not disappointed, excellent work bro🤘🏼
Great drumming as always! I would love to request some Black Sabbath or even more Lynyrd Skynyrd (War Pigs, N.I.B, or anything from LS' "Second Helping" album)
With sure the best channel of cover of youtube, due to the quality that is a work of art. Do you intend when to come back with the guitar cover? Could you do a guitar cover for hey you?
Amazing you do the best covers it's a shame you weren't born in the 50s cause you would have definitely been part of a great 70s rock group. Anyway you can do life in the fast line or victim of love please??
Thanks for the lump in my throat lol my mom used to sing this track to me from vinyl in the early 80s. As a fellow drummer i recommend to work on some Candlebox. Great tempo changes and jazz rock. Arrow is mt favorite track to cover by Candlebox. Btw love the shirt, want one, but the link is inactive :(
I gotta say drumming is great and the recording sounds amazing i see a couple of shure mics are they sm57 or sm58 and where is the best place to put the mics are there only 2 of them? Trying to mic our drummer and get a great sound as yours
Dood!!!......\m/.. Respect..\m/.......... Indeed... Im a "self taught Bass player of 30+yrs now... Jammed with literly hundreds of drummers thru the years, and i have played this song hundreds of times as well and with so many drummers .. And the band i currently play in now does it too... I think that kinda qualifies me too make a fairly accurate & respectful opinion of drummers and drummers playing this song... And with that being said... Absolute Respect to you brother, That was Spot on in my opinion dood... You could sit in Right now today with "Lynyrd Skynyrd" themselves and play it like a fkn pro... Guess what im trying to say is, Awesome job my rock&roll brother... Awesome Job indeed....
Hey everyone! My new album 'Copenhagen Girl' is out now!
Give it a listen :) hyperurl.co/copenhagengirl
I know everyone goes crazy over Freebird, but this is the best Skynyrd song. You nailed, it, bro! Great job .
Agreed - Freebird is what LS is known for, but to me "Simple Man" is the quintessential Southern Rock song.
Let’s not forget Sweet home Alabama
Very true! I love this song!

The drumming in this song is, well, simple. But very powerful. Great job!
I've listened to your version over a hundred times.
Dude all I can say is you can play them freaking drums!!!!. No doubt I wish I was talented like that

That is an accurate and excellent drum cover of that song. Great work!
Hi Ewan. Never thought I'd be listening to a Lynyrd Skynyrd song let alone a drum cover but this works very well and your drumming is great Ewan!!
Got so into this completely forgot I was listening to a cover so perfect with the drumming and that reverb is fucking spot on
Love your T shirt, mate. My favourite song ever right there
Awesome, he hit out of the park! This guy's skillset don't lie. Watch and learn.
This song and the song on your shirt (Wish You Were Here) are my two favorite songs. Awesome cover man, keep up the good work!
THIS IS MY FAVORITE DRUM COVER. THANK YOU EWAN
Very nice job Ewan.. and great choice of a Lynyrd Skynyrd song.. one of my favs.
That is as good a cover as I have seen.
Thanks a lot :))
Faithful cover. My favorite song! Well done.
Awesome video man... I can barely read music... but watching and listening repeatedly is how I usually learn.. your video has helped.. thankyou 👍
Stuck to the script triggers sound spot on..great job bro
You are a talented young man! I enjoyed all your videos.
Beautiful! Someone up above!
I like to listen to real music. I was reading Proverbs, and this kept trying to sneak it's way into my mind. And I can say that this is a very nice song to have stuck in your head.

Congratulations Ewan, this song is too beautiful and has a very cool take on both bass and drums ...
Oh I do love a wee bit of Skynyrd Ewan.Nailed it my friend 😊
Thanks for the video! Just started playing again and was having trouble with this song till I watched your video. You nail it bro

Excellent cover man. You nailed it. Like the way you play.
Really good snare sound!
You absolutely nailed it!
Very smooth song and well played
Absolut "simple" mans beat,
Done your work!
I like it.
Great job! I've been hoping you would make this video after seeing your Free Bird cover, keep up the good work!
Very nice, I did that cover too last year. It's fun to play, it's a great song too.
I like perfection, Awesome work.
Sounds awesome, love this song!!!
Superb job. Great feel for the song
That was outstanding!
Thank you! I am motivated to learn this beat the next weeks! I love the song and the beat is so cool! 👍👍👍 60 bpm I think
Alas I find someone else here to learn...albeit 7 months late
That is a damn good job, man. Excellent skill.
👏👏 Lynyrd Skynyrd ! Buena banda, increible musica !
Cara ,estou iniciando na bateria e vou tirar esse som com seu vídeo parabéns e obrigado !
Nice song Ewan, thanks for your cover.
Thanks for helping me learn this!
Nice album collection!
Nailed it brother!
Just awesome!
Very nice Ewan.....to be honest I don't understand how you get that great sound???! Your mix is awesome! I wish to know how to get that sound mix.
Very well done I’m working on this myself this was very helpful very smooth and musicley done 👍👊
Great drumming as always! I would love to request some Black Sabbath or even more Lynyrd Skynyrd (War Pigs, N.I.B, or anything from LS' "Second Helping" album)
why not "pronounced" its far better!
With sure the best channel of cover of youtube, due to the quality that is a work of art. Do you intend when to come back with the guitar cover?
Could you do a guitar cover for hey you?
Great, great job. I'm waiting for "On The Hunt" :)
He’s playing over the original drum track. Pay attention people. That’s why it sounds so good to you all.
Can you do a drum cover of stairway to heaven?
Great job. Work your left hand more for your immediate crash notes. It’ll give your right hand a break a bit with your high hat stroke. Keep rockin..
Perfectly executed
I love it man!!!
I love this song....my favorite
Could you play eminence front? Greetings from Brazil!
roger braggio boa sugestão 👍
LOVE ALL YOUR COVERS!!! Do more drum covers lol... Where did you get the headphones?
Bravo! Awesome
excelent mix!
I love this song ♥️
Amazing you do the best covers it's a shame you weren't born in the 50s cause you would have definitely been part of a great 70s rock group. Anyway you can do life in the fast line or victim of love please??
Still the best song ever ❤
Thanks for the lump in my throat lol my mom used to sing this track to me from vinyl in the early 80s.
As a fellow drummer i recommend to work on some Candlebox. Great tempo changes and jazz rock. Arrow is mt favorite track to cover by Candlebox.
