Come steal my cymbals then. All I have is a practice pad. Lol.
Ha!
Ok pls steal my cymbals and Hi hats mine are bad
And replace mine
So are my toms
Could you do something similar for like intermediate drummers? That'd be really cool.
I'll see what I can do!
@@StephenTaylorDrums Thank you man!
Fair point bro, thought i was beginner but much better than i thought lol.
@@IAMJBC1001 I play for 20 years now and I just wanted some songs that sound good and are easy so I don't have to put mutch time in it and this is just what I want.
Bro love your pfp
I just got my first kit, I am a grandmother and need a hobby so here I am 🤣🤣 I can't wait to jump in and you made it seem feasible. Thank you!
You would be AMAZED at how many grandmother's I have in my online drum school. Some of them playing 2 and 3 shows a weekend. You're in good company...welcome to the family!!!
Stephen , I have been playing and working drums for 34 years now and I have to say how great this video is for any early stage drummer . It is a very good practice plan to work to , rather than every song on every day , and a clear and well explained breakdown of the drum parts . I will be passing this on to some "budding Buddys" and I know they will use it and it will help them a lot.
Love the permanent enthusiasm you have and the content is always at a top standard . Thanks Bud
0:33 We will rock you by Queen
2:01 Feel good inc by Gorillaz
3:50 Sugar by Maroon 5
6:13 Yellow by Coldplay
11:03 Perfect by Ed Sheeran
Gross lol as if maroon 5 wasn't bad enough, Ed Sheehan?🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
@misscherylyn448 (hope I got that right 😊
Thabks for these, makes it super easy to jump to what I want to work on or need to work on... which is everything, but, you know what I mean....
Just thanks, all I was trying to say, but my fingers have a life of their own😬😊
@@HugoStiglitz88wtf
I started playing drums 2 months ago and I feel like I’m starting to finally get the hang of it
Makes me want to put the kit back together! 🤣
Do it!!!
As a beginner, these are great songs! Thank you putting this together!!!
I've had exactly 4 in-person lessons and your videos are amazingly understandable even to a total noob. Thanks man!
Thank you for all the work you put into videos like these to teach drummers of all levels. I also like how the 12/8 hi-hat has a triplet feel to it.
As a drum teacher, I can assure you that feel good Inc's bass drum patter is hard for super beginners and kids lol but very good list!
Yes I'm beginner and its Lil bit hard
Thanks for confirming that I'm not the one who's bad 🙂
well tempo 139bpm is quite a challange XD
I just got my EKit, this is my 3rdday on them. I've been using the Drumeo website course with Jared Falk, and the beat in this song is very close to the first beat I learned. I can't do it at full speed, but I'm just starting to get a hang of the pattern at a slower tempo. It's a bit tricky, but I feel like it's easier now that I have some fundamentals down.
If you're just starting like I am, the Drumeo online course is well worth the $30 a month if you spend an hour or two on it per day. I'm going on strong doing 4-6 hours for the last 3 days and it's starting to feel like I can see the super hard songs as possible soon. That course has single handedly made me wayyy more comfortable and confident that I can learn and master the drums eventually. That's just my 2 cents though.
@@DeadDamsel tbh it will take longer than you think, but you are definitely on the right path. Not only by learning from good sources but also putting a lot of work in.
Work is the key, not talent. That's what it's all about
But when you start hearing a really tough part, the first time you actually manage to play it right is such a rush. It's such a satisfying feeling and it really never goes away no matter how long you've been playing, as long as keep finding things to challenge yourself.
It’s easy for me but it is also a banger song but it also took like a month to get lol
feel-good inc is was the first song that as a new drummer, I learned although i have experimented with it and added some parts to make fills instead of just a single beat throughout the whole song, watching this video is really helping me to learn some new very basic songs. thanks for this in-depth explanation :)
Hey Stephen, I’ve been a player for over 20 years, and I just watched a video of a some people recreating the Motown sound and it was really interesting. This also threw me in to Idea mode. Those Motown drummers had chops for days obviously (they didn’t need to use a lot of times) but they had to mix as they were recording the track with their hands and feet. This makes those guys some of the most impressive and dynamically talented players in history. 3 mics, one track! Could be a great lesson! Thanks for your channel. EVERYONE SHOULD ALWAYS LEARN!
Getting my very first kit soon & so thankful I found your channel. Keep them coming. Thank you so much!
Congrats on the kit!!! Let me know if you have any questions as you go
Hi Stephen! This is exactly what I needed, thanks. I'm also planning to sign up to your course soon and ace this new practice kit I got! Greetings from the UK
I'm super excited about learning! I'm 55 & my husband purchased an electric drum set for me for Christmas. I realize electric is not the most optimal, but it's a start! Thanks for your postings!
An excellent lesson, Stephen. Not only do you teach them very well but you also chose some BELTERS as well!
Stephen you're absolutely amazing ...thanks for your wonderful videos 🥁👍
Wow, I’m learning so much from you, you make it look easy and explain it simple...... sending so much gratitude towards you
I can't believe I was playing 'Bleed' by day 10! You're the man!
Im actually about to start learning how to play drums and this actually, well hopefully make me better. Cant wait to try this !
Hi Stephen. Yellow was one of the first songs I learned on the drums. That was an excellent choice to pick for new drummers. Thanks for all your videos and clear and patient way of explaining things.
Thanks so much now I can play some of these for my family thanks
As a percussionist i gotta say one thing
i approve this video and everything
it’s not hard and it’s not fake
it’s all true and this are the first things everyone ever did on the drum set.
Funnily enough I was listening to we will rock you this morning. Also great video!
I have MS and I'm trying to learn the drum, might help me keep my hands and legs alive for a longer period. Thanks for the videos, great help. Never thought I would learn something new again. It is awesome, kind of an epiphany.
Hey, I hope things are coming along well for you! I think that's so cool that you're seeing a challenge out of your condition rather than an impossibility. I struggle to be confident about learning new things and sticking to them, I wish I had the resiliency you do!
I am excited to learn
Thanks for recommending Yellow. Easy to learn and I picked it up quickly. Keep recommending good beginner songs :-)
You are GOLD for learning playing drums Steven 💯
So glad the lessons help!
Amazing I just started and it’s so fun!
Very helpful! Thank you!
very nice for my students!!! job well done Stephen!!!
Exactly why I out it out ;^)
great, so well explained!
More!! We want more!!
Thank you, you helped me a lot
great lessons and enjoyed it.
So I don’t play the drums but I have a Vr and have a drum game on it so I’m trying to learn for fun thanks for the video!
Awesome video. Thanks
Thanks. New older beginner player here. Not ready for Boot Camp yet.
Wow, great lesson! Just speaking from a pedagogy perspective, this is really, really well crafted! I like how the concepts build in complexity. It's achievable for beginners but there's enough juicy content to keep more advanced drummers engaged as well. I'm also digging the "edutaining" pop-up facts. A really nice touch.
yeah this guy is the real deal and i enjoyed reading your points on why these are such good lessons.
.
I just got my drum set yesterday and within the first 24 hours I was playing along to we will rock you like a pro
Haha! I love it!
You’re pretty rad I really like that you clap it out
This video is very helpful thanks
OMG! Challenge accepted!!! I will post it on my instagram account the daily study sessions and then i will upload the final shots in my TH-cam channel... Hope i have enough time to do it!!! 💪💪💪💪🥁🥁🥁🥁
Thank you so much
I have also found that whatsername by Green Day is also one with a basic beat. There are some parts in it that you can just keep playing the best before it through. It also opens up to looking at snare rolls and some toms, but the song still sounds good without those parts in it
Very cool progressive lesson.
Ahh 🙏 thank you
Super, Taylor :)
Currently on day two this is more helpfull then expected got feel good inc right finnaly
I like this
Thats alot of song's to learn
Amazing lesson
So glad it helped!
thank you, i am a beginner and this helped a lot.
Glsd it helped Joseph
I can play yellow but ive not done feel good inc though. I will try it tomorrow. I am only grade 3 and only been drumming a little over a year now. Beginner friendly list so that is cool.
This is real nice can't wait until this afternoon practice time to start working on this. By the way were can I get one of those tee shirts.
Man!!!! I've been looking for this! I learned basic drum kit stuff in school 25 years ago and bought myself an electric kit six months ago. Can you coach me? I'm in Australia. Cheers buddy!
Wow, it's weird I've been doing this mentally without ever counting since the very beginning of playing drums. I started off learning Metallica - For whom the bells tolls, Fade to Black, Sanitarium, Orion, One, The Unforgiven and Nothing Else Matters. After I got those down I started trying to play Rush songs like Tom Sawyer and what not. But I never counted in my head, I just played by feel and mentally keeping note of a 4 here and there. Most of the time I would visualize it like how I keep tracks of the months were I think of the orbit of earth around the sun and mentally keeping points of each month like a dot on the orbit it self.
do you share those substances? i’m with you on your zen approach to drumming.
but points on an orbit to keep track of the month? you’re gonna need to dole out some good stuff so i can attain that astral plane man ... :)
PS - your phone’s got a calendar :)

@@jimdiskin3760 Cell phones weren't common until my mid 20's. Before that all we had was a digital watch which I stopped using when I was about 14. I still remember phone numbers like a mental rolodex, I can recall 50+ numbers just thinking of the persons face. But they are also in my phone too, but before the cell phone you ether wrote it down or remembered it. Just to make a guess, I bet if you lost your phone you would be screwed lol.
@@feeterican - good point!
My husband & I are in our 50's.... well, I'm 50, he's IN his 50's (😆😊🤣🙄😲😆🤣😆😂😂can't wait till he sees this🤣😆😂😏🥰)
Anyway... our son saved and over the last 15yrs, gosh, at least, probably more, I'm old remember. He added to it and taught himself to be really good as well as other instruments, it clearly skipped my generation, but thrilled he got it all. But he's not yet lived in a place where he could bring his kit, so he'd build boxes, something to play on and be excited to visit his drums we stored here. So we would go mess around on it here n there... he tried hard to teach me but🤦🏻♀️ I'm also a lefty, he is not. Nit I use both hands for everything so figured no big deal. Mostly it was an awesome way to release tension when necessary:) I have very serious health issues that due to an idiot surgeon went from an 8 to a 25 as far as pain, breathing now with only 1 lung, relearning to use the arm he killed and a ton more... so, I can't practice like I know is very necessary. Our son recently found a place to store his drums near him where he can play... SUPER happy for him!! But, we, especially me, hadn't realized HOW MUCH I'd miss them. Even just making loud noises on them was fun and has actually been something I've used to get use of my arm back, mostly, better then nothing!!!
So, we can't afford anything with loss of work and ridiculous medical bills and more, due to me... but, my husband is awesome and knows what art and music mean to me and loved hearing me use this dumb arm to just wait away, and my son told me to go as hard as I wanted (I was VERY afraid of breaking one or all of the heads😊) he didn't care, just wanted me to have fun❤
So my husband found us a use 5piece Tama Imperialstar kit for cheap, in great condition but could use better heads and probably cymbals, though he guy believes they're made by Meinl way back then but put Tama on them... I have no clue. Then dang Sweetwater had 0% over 4 years deal and he went a lil nuts... but, we did need stands and a stool (I can't say throne, don't know why, maybe if I learn to play I'll allow myself that🤷🏻♀️)
So, now the setting it up is real hard for us, I'm lefty, but, some bits I want to do right just for getting used to our sons kit... and the crossed arms from playing open handed is messing with me... but foot on kick is better and hitting the toms (my favorite sounds...deep) on my left is better.
But I can't quite get comfortable with it... just feels wrong, just not sure what part.
Then, I feel bad for when my hubby, righty, wants to mess around on it.
So.... its daunting, especially knowing that everyone says its a crazy amount of years and thats with crazy hours every day... I can't always walk or sit up or have much use of my arms... so, I go the moment I can but... 🤷🏻♀️
My dream is to learn some fun loud powerful beats to slam away on.... but more then that, I LOVE to learn a song and whether he visits us or vice versa, I want to be super casual, and then just bust out a song, or at least some powerful sick beats that he'd instantly know and see his big smile and surprise 😊 but.... im probably... seems most definitely... out of my mind thinking thats possible with my health junk🤦🏻♀️
But, still gotta try.... or at least just have fun being loud... though I feel real guilty having this just to make noise, but, I tried to stop him, but, he was on a missing.
Sheesh... I know nobody will read this which is of course TOTALLY fine... more likely I'll get comments about how dumb I am for writing so much.... which I think is funny to me and sad for them, cuz, they didn't and don't have to read it at all.
I'm just explaining where I'm coming from on this new to me... my own kit!!!.... thing and why I can't practice like I know is totally necessary.
So, I apologize for those of you offened my this babble/vent of my excitement/fear of it all.
And being that we're legit just trying to not lose our little home and keep a bit of food on the table, I can't afford even the cheaper classes... so I also wanted to say thank you and so many on here, that are kind enough to share your awesome talent that takes a lot of effort to get on here, for free.
It is truly truly appreciated!!!!!😊
I'm so glad you're learning to play! I love the passion you have! I have tons of free beginner lessons on my you tube channel. Start with those!
@@StephenTaylorDrums
Thank you SO much!!! I really appreciate it!!
We watch your videos all the time and have saved a ton to my playlist for our learning drums in our 50's or something, my brain can't remember, but, I love your videos and the way you teach. Your love for it shows through so much. And I may be wrong, please forgive me if I am, but a long while back, before this last botched surgery, you saying something about the left right thing and it made me think differently.
I know recording, editing, uploading and the loads of other things that go into putting these videos together takes SO much work.... its part of why I've never put any of my art stuff up on here and that's what this channel was supposed to be for.... but, besides my being to embarrassed about not being at all good enough... there's SO much work involved, for quality work like your videos are, so please know that we appreciate you and your hard work more then these words can fully express. Art of all sorts is life saving, I know from personal experience. And playing music, even as badly as I do.... still a blast anytime I can.
And your videos are a huge help with that.
We've definitely been a bit overwhelmed setting it all up on our own and making it comfortable, when I'm not even positive what I'm looking for, I only know when it feels wrong😊🤦🏻♀️ but, we'll figure it out.
So thank you again for having so much awesome content here!! Truly truly appreciated!!!!🤘😁😊
@@StephenTaylorDrums oh, and I did sign up to get the sheet music and all that... I don't know how to read it😳🙄😬🤦🏻♀️ but, by watching you use it I'm learning bits of how it works, so thank for that as well!!!😁
I love this video cause I love it when you don't have to put much effort in something like I did for example with war pigs by black sabbath which I played very accurate but you can easily play it and it simple but is fun and sounds cool like for example seven nation army by white stripes
Stephen: We're gonna learn Sugar!
Me: By System of a Down???
Stephen: By Maroon 5
Me: Awwww =(
Lol, I prefer the SOAD version btw...
@@StephenTaylorDrums legend :)
So i bought my son an electric drum kit and hes been practicing for that past three days. I used to olay the drums and stopped as a beginner so i am also learning with him but it seems like im the one trying to learn more lol.
can you please do a video on bill bufords best drum beats?! He's extremely underrated and one of the most technically gifted musicians I've seen; Id really appreciate it!!
Please!
Could you do a tutorial on rude by magic 🥺 been trying for so long but cant get the main beat and you explain the beats so good
I'm having a hard time doing the bass on the "3 and" because I'm used to practicing with it on the 3. I just recently mastered that.
You're the freakin man.
🙏🏻
Golden 👍
So glad it helped
OMG. This is completely what I need! I have some pretty incredible skills, but I have a mental block against learning songs.
Hey Stephen, great videos ! Ever heard about Freedrum ? It's a virtual drum that i've bougth to learn how to play. Do you think i could manage some kind of level with that kind of gear ? Just wanted to know what do you think about it .
Thanks !
I Subscribed because I really enjoyed your lessons. However, you can have my cymbals as I am using pan lids hanging from the ceiling of the barn. You are welcome to come and steal them away! LOL
I already mastered we will rock you
Nice!!!
I’ve had drums for a week I can already play in the air tonight and All together (DO something harder!)
i love how i search up “easy rock drum songs” and then yyz by rush pops up in the recommended next to the video- bruh
Thanks man just got my first kit looking forward to practicing like hell
Take my sub
when I saw Sugar, I was like "system of a down? for a beginner?"
Same
actually roger taylor played we will rock you different: he played the kick together with the floor and then only the snare
can you have more video teach like this . thanks
Maps by YeahYeahYeahs. I could play most of this when I was 8, simply because of rockband
Summer Depression by Girl in Red would be a good beginner song as well, but you may want to double check.
You should make an app
Just saying 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 ...
This is a weird request but could you make a video on how to play cant stop by the red chili peppers? I really want to learn it yet the other tutorials are not as in depth as your videos.
I still play Yellow by Coldplay with my band 👏 (hardest on the vocals, not so much on drums indeed...)
What kind of snare drum is that..metal type ect..just wondering ✋👍..good material for quick learns.
I learnt all the songs in this video
Nice!
Thanks for this!!! I play guitar and now also drums. My uncle is giving me his drums because he doesn’t play anymore
You're welcome!
Totally heard the 12/8 as 12345, 678910, 11, Twel el el el el el elve...TWELVE!
Thank you for the great video! but it would have been great if you played the last two songs yourself to show it up to speed with the track
hey, sir taylor :) i want to compliment you on your truly likable online demeanor. you are a pleasure to watch and learn from. your lessons are very upbeat and motivational. you always provide the drum notation, which is much appreciated.
your personality makes you seem like a legit friend to all drummers. your enthusiasm is infectious. you seen like a really good guy.
i’ve been playing guitar and bass for quite a long time. i’m a fledgling drummer who cares about the fundamentals and wants to be good. i don’t care about being legendary. i’d just like to fit in wherever i may go. i’m big into lakewood church in houston and i want to play drums in my local church worship band.
i tend to gravitate to the best very quickly. i think i have strong life and music kharma. so when i stumbled upon your lessons i knew i found what i needed :)
i just want to say ‘thank you’. some moron was giving you crap for talking too much on a lesson vid. thank God you really good providers can ignore the thoughtless, thankless idiots who try to steal joy. never let them. soooo many more of us are truly grateful.
i hope the algorithm is bringing you satisfaction and all you deserve. if it hasn’t ‘hockey sticked’ you to the ramp-up yet, i hope it’s just around the bend for you.
cheers man. love your lessons.
Thsnk you Jim!
Always respect but...there are some really cool variations in "Feel Good Inc." 🤔🥁
Absolutely there are...they are pretty simple variations of this groove though. They are all included in the transcription too
Interesting video, I just wondered what was the name of the 4th song?
Audioslave - Like A Stone is simpler for beginners too.. cc:Stephen Taylor drummer
intro- 10:00
verse- 10:10
chorus- 10:23
My mom said if I learn ten sound on books just laying for the type of of drum I can get a drum so yeah this help very much.
Get to it!!!
How do i play through the fire and flames? Just bought some drums
I’ve been stuck and learning Feel Good Inc for 4 days, I don’t want to move on until I’ve nailed it. Any tips?
Have you nailed it yet and if you have do you have any tips for it
Is it possible to learn smells like teen spirit as a beginner..or is it way to advanced? Thanks
why do his drums sound so good. mine sound like i am in a marching band
I want to play drums. It’s expensive so Ive started out with a practice pad, metronome, and sticks. I’ve been working on my paradiddles. It’s kinda ridiculous but I’ve also been adding different pillows to drum on for different sounds. And I’ve been working my foot to stay on beat with a pretend bass drum.
This is a great way to start! When having students work on foot control, I will often tell them to play on a hard floor surface that has a tapping sound but without a pedal. You can do the same. Love the dedication!
Right there with you!
Stephen I'm in a point in my playing where I feel like I've hit a wall. If that makes any sense. Do you do any live video lessons?
Hey David, totally get it. Go to my website at www.stephensdrumshed.com I have an entire online drum school with live material happening weekly. Would love to have you in the program
I have a simple question for drummers I'd love some feedback on:
When learning/memorizing songs, is it better to replay each song multiple times in a row even if that means you cant practice it for a few days, or is it better to play each song you're rehearsing everyday but only one time for each song?
I'm gonna try both methods but I'm really curious on what other drummers think
I struggle with making entirely random mistakes (my ADHD doesn't help that's for sure) and I'm starting to wonder if I've been doing it wrong this whole time. Like they're not huge mistakes but they're enough to bother me.
Like when you practice with a band, you go through the set list and unless 1 song gets really screwed up, you don't replay it. You might loop through the set list again if you all have time but typically you do a set list in order unless someone is struggling
When I practice alone I've been doing it the same way. I practice an hour everyday almost, but I usually run through the songs I play just once each.
Would I be better served by repeating 1 song 5 times in a row, and saving the other songs for another day?
I'm gonna try it regardless, I just wanted to know how other drummers do it
Repeat that song 5 times. Keep repeating it until you know it. Then, move on to the next. Make a list of those that you have learned like the back of your hand. Play those once a few days a week. But have one song you're focusing on and playing multiple times a day. The turtle wins everytime I read that book 👊🏻😁🥁
@@StephenTaylorDrums thanks for the feedback. I'm working on learning Stranger Things by Periphery, I'm gonna try that and see how it compares to my old method. I've at least learned the toughest parts of the song already just gotta put it all together
If there's one particular part I screw up, I'll practice that over and over again until I get it, especially when learning a new song. But I can also can develop bad habits over time too after I've already learned something
It's rough being a drummer sometimes lol
