His fills are drumming genius. The double bass drums add so much more to the original recording. Getting Portnoy for a Nickleback show would be like renting a Ferrari to go to the local shop.
Yeah like what he did other than that double bass during the chorus.. maybe because it’s hard to unhear what it actually is.
"BASS" Why do a lot of people think it's "BASE"? Whether it's the guitar or the drum? And to think you people are trying to comment on a musical thing. It just shows you people are effing posers.
@@eatsmylifeYT chill.
@@vvoof2601 Triggered, aren't you? You're obviously one of THEM.
When you know... you know!
Awesome display of musicianship. Thanks to you for showing this...
His drumming added a whole different layer depth and feeling to the original track. I could only imagine what it would have been like had he toured with them.
This entire series is absolute gold🤘💯
Dude I’m so glad I found this channel 👊🔥
Mike is a legend
Thank you. Love your videos!
We need more cow bell!!
Funny when he says "thats why they are rich and famous and I'm just a prog guy"....when Mike himself is worth around 8 million net worth and known the world over for his drumming
Thats why they become multi platinum millionaire and im just a "prog guy"....just a simple and humble statement from a drummer at "certain level"....
Freaken love Nickleback and I’m not really a rock guy. Something about their songs, beat, rhythm, singer is just amazing.
His version with the double bass is so much better
His flams are perfect
By messing it up did he mean completely making it awesome 🤣🤣
Much better drum line than original ahahah
Im willing to bet Chad tells the drummer to pay plain as to not distract from his voice.
fucking insane !
This version was awesome lol
I do love this vid but how you remind me would have been cool for him to learn
F**kin Nickel back fan here.
The goat
I wonder if he proceeded on playing Bleed, thumbs up if you think he can :)
Now let’s see Daniel Adair do a Dream Theater song. No, for real, that’s a great song and both versions are awesome. But Mike is up there among the best. Just a prog rock guy fucking up every song. 🤣
Yeah the "infinitely going one type of beat throughout the song" kinda suck. Even without double bass, the original drummer should add more to it, instead of relying on one bass drum pattern the entire song.
Colby ma man, he's gonna retire in Dream Theater now... And hopefully stick with The Winery Dogs as well, he's got a huge gig there with Billy and Richie. Kotzen's wife Julia Lage, a fellow Brazilian who's an amazing human being, long story short, I adopted a dog here and little Cookie got seriously sick and I asked for financial help on Instagram and she stepped up and helped little 2-month old Cookie, she was in the vet hospital for 9 days and she's a warrior, she's 75 Pounds now at one year and two months old and going strong. I just thought it was relevant to comment about it. BTW, Cookie is fast asleep on my left foot right now. Peace brother. Keep it up!
dude starting reading your comments its PORTNOY not PORTNEY
Mike is a fuckin genius
100 percent! Nicklebacks drummer is gonna develop and dr king problem after hearing this. lol!
Absolutely 💯
Hahahaha
Mike is one of the greatest drummers of all time
So many Mike in DT… 😂
use this comment as the i'm a Nickelback fan button
Not very many of you guys out there huh
Matter of fact I was at a show and shittleback was the headliner, and they played 1 song and then everyone left. I kinda felt bad for them lol
@@adamlohman6206 they still made bank on that gig, we all have different tastes, i can’t help that mine is superior
By far best concert I've ever seen. Most people only hate them because the internet told them too
I can’t unhear the double bass in the chorus now it’s so good.
If Mike Portnoy was doing this for Nickelback songs I definitely would have been a fan of the band. 😂
I couldn't tell you the name of a single Nickelback tune, but can tell you the name of 100 Dream Theater tunes. Mike made this song kickass for sure. I'd buy it.
@@BaconIsNotBicepsI can name you a lot of their songs. The band is actually very very good. The reason people hate Nickelback is not because they don’t like their songs it’s because people are sheep. People hate them without knowing why or listening to their songs. An American comedian one day said on a tv show or podcast that he thought Nickelback were shit. That was the defining moment and people randomly thought they hated them as well.
@@lconnerz100 i agree. theyre sorta cheesy or corny or something like that but theyre not actually bad. I'm not a huge fan, not my genre for the most part, but there are a ton of worse bands that get hated much less. There are many corny/cheesy pop bands out there on the radio. It's normal. Hating them became trendy or cool or whatever.
Both versions are awesome! But, you cannot deny the feel, power and passion, that Mike brings to whatever he does!
original drum is totally basic
Absolutely incredible song by Mike Portnoy Colby!!!! I’ll say it again….Mike really is a genius on drums 👍👍👍
This guy is So Fucking Humble! He did a phenomenal job and his improve was on point and didn't think he was a good fit? Now I gotta find where Dream Theatre is playing near me to hear this guy Tear It Up!!!
Welcome to Dream Theater's fan club hahaha
He JUST rejoined Dream Theater. New album expected this year and a tour to follow.
@@Yellow_Leader he's back in dream theater? What happened to Mike Mangini (sp?)?
@@8180634 By all accounts it was an amicable split. You can find MM's and MP's statements about it by googling. I'd link but I'm on mobile.
@@8180634 Mangoni was a good trooper. He understood that it was a temporary gig.
Mike's playing in A7X 'Save Me' is what got me interested in drumming, I love that song, it's my all time favourite!
Damn hell yeah I LOVED learning that song on drums
He improved the song like a thousand times 😂
right? the actual drums sounded like something new drummers could do haha.
@@andrewvasquez7872Simple doesn't mean bad or beginner. Don't gatekeep drumming. There are plenty of songs with fantastic drummers, doing simple beats.
@@andrewvasquez7872 nah, it's just a different genre. It's straight rock that is very pop compatible. Nothing wrong about that, just a more radio friendly style. There is enough space in music all kinds of genres.
Nah, the double bass definitely could work but other than that original is still better
@@thefitgm335Nick Mason of Pink Floyd is a great example of a good drummer that keeps it simple. If he weren't good, he wouldn't have been with the band from the beginning. Some have more technical skills, others like John Bonham and Nick Mason, were great time keepers, never losing the beat, no matter how long the song. Some drummers suit a certain band like Mike Portnoy and Dream Theater. I could only imagine what a Pink Floyd tune would morph into it played by Mike Portnoy. Actually, Voivod did an exceptional cover of Pink Floyd's "Astronomy Domine", with double bass!!! Amazing!👍🏼😊🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I'm going to release a video of my dad reacting to me reacting to this dude reacting to mike portnoy
What a humble guy full of respect! He doesn’t need to put nickelback down like so many rock/metal fans and even musicians of the genre do! He is a pro full of love for music! He adds his style not to „make it better“ just showing his interpretation! Thanks for answering all the nickeback-hate in that way!
Ps: i am not loving or hating them! But they deserve appreciation and for sure not that hate!
I absolutely love the way Mike Portnoy plays drums. He can turn any song into musical bliss with his drumming techniques. I would love to have heard his drum version on any Nickleback songs.
I really wish you'd interject with more analysis, I've noticed that most of these vids it's just you watching a video and pointing out the obvious. I may have to unsub because I could just watch these videos on my own...
See this is why I'm glad Mike is back with Dream Theater. I miss his improvising and "feel" with DT. Not to say that Mangini was bad, just different.
Mike is top 3 living drummers. The Dude is amazing
Mike definitely added some cool elements to it. LOVE the double bass and the toms he added! The Toms could actually fit and not take away from the songs feel. But, I'll just say this as my opinion. Never forget the K.I.S.S. (Keep It Simple Stupid) rule. It's hard to actually do and have it sound good. This song, and watching this video, really proves that rule. The single pumping bass kicks keep the songs energy "Pumping" and moving along which actually makes it easier for most people, who are not musicians, to tap their feet to it and feel the songs energy and vibe. I'm sure there were takes in the studio with Nickelback where they had more complex parts and maybe even a double bass in the arrangement. But that's why you get a producer, Robert John "Mutt" Lange in this case, who can help with this. Obviously Lange's record speaks for itself.
Also... BTW, I'm an old metal head and I don't listen to Nickelback...why? It might be the drummer, now that we are pointing it out 😅
As a metal drummer of 20 years. Yes he should of used the double bass, especially in the chorus
People are all over el estepario
Nuts and hes extremely talented. But when you see these drummers especially Mike Portnoy You see the creative Genius that many dont have. There are people that can play anything and everything But thats all they have. The ability to write is what sets players like Mike apart
I'm a huge Nickelback fan. Especially the Feed The Machine album. And damn Mike. You took this song to a new level
Keep in mind this guy was doin it in the 80s when prog was just getting started. Estepario is a great drummer but more of a gimmick. Piert, portnoy, and Jarzombek are the real deal.
With all respect and appreciation putting Portnoy and Estepario in the same line sounds odd....
He's so good. And seems like a really good dude. I mean some of the stuff he plays is just gross good😊
Imagine going to Nickelfest and seeing him on drums? Hell yeah!
He made the song feel much better than the original!
Imagine being the actual drummer for Nickelback and seeing Mike Portnoy vastly improve your work with such little effort.
I understand that Nickelback just needs a world- class drummer to be loved. Or am I wrong?🎶😉🖖🤘
Being a Nickelback fan is like being a Bud Light drinking…..figure that out
I don't listen to Nickleback, but I'd buy their entire discography if I could spit bud light in your face
Great base content, but I expected a bit more from a drummer commentating on Mike Portnoy. The commentary was just generic, no technical insight or anything. Sorry dude...
Imagine the poor drummer from Nickelback watching this?!?!
Daniel Adair is a beast... he's better than a lot of drummers but Nickelback is arena rock so it's going to be more simple but affective. His other band martone shows some of the stuff he can do
Idiot. Goes to show you how you don’t know anything about NB. Daniel Adair is insane
Not a big fan of Nickelback, but their drummer is really good, he makes their songs just straight ahead rock songs not too busy but really solid.
I like the sound of NickelBack but some of the lyrics are creepy as hell. Talking about going after young girls and calling them jail bait.
I remember watching that video when it first dropped and feeling really really bad for Nickelback's drummer. Portnoy, off one listen and some crib notes, just blows it up on the spot, one take.
He didn't necessarily outplay the song, not entirely, but he definitely elevated the song into something better (and made the stock drum part sound underwhelming/simple/boring, in comparison).
Wow, I had never heard this song before but Mike killed it. That double bass was on point in the chorus. Well done!
Seriously are you unable to say his name right? its PortnOY not PortnEE... I have seen a dozen or more of your videos and every time you cant get his name right.. And they even say it several times in the video.
Sad that He never played with nickelback...😢😊
He played for A7X and did all the drum tracs on Nightmare...I am the one guy who doesn't love or hate NB..love how mike always talk/explains/remembers a lot, you get a drummer like Van Williams and you're f***ed as he is so quiet. He nailed this which, admittedly is like driving a Bugatti in a parking lot.
Send this to Chad so he can cry about what could have been!
Its a decent song but so much better with Mikes drums on it.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥smashing it all day long
I didn’t use to like Mike not that he was a bad drummer by no means I just didn’t like him. However, this video has completely changed my mind. His version of this song was way better than the original. Who knew one song can change your whole entire outlook on somebody👏👏
Rise by extreme. Mickleback went *pop*
double bass was epic...sounds better than the original imho
People need to understand that Daniel Adair is an absolute beast...
Nickleback is amazing !!!! This is a kick ass song
He killed it! Love his style.
Oh damn, Portnoy just made this song 10x cooler than it already was! And if you hated the song, you might have to admit that it is quite enjoyable now!
I said this in the video for this on Drumeo. Nickelback drummer should smash his kits and take up playing the bass. This made this song exponentially better.
Do you remember AQUILES PRIESTER failing during the audition in 2010??? WELL he missed in one song because he was playing Portnoy parts LOL, Mike is from another planet also AQUILES.
Minus the vocals , it has a Adrenaline Mob feel to it. Love it.
Thanks Colby
Great reaction.
Portnoy IS Dream Theater.lol I truly enjoy watching Mike because he is incredibly humble for being SO DAMN GOOD. He keeps saying that he would've screwed up every song. More like, MADE THEM ALL BETTER!!!😆👍🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
That was good drumming
Loved the double bass corus and ending of verses I think it pumps the song even more than it already is loved it wonder what he would've done to the other songs if he did do the gig
There is a Soul in his drumming that makes every song new life❤
Portney?
I prefer the double bass
He made the original sound silly AF... he is being a true artist, bowing to the original....but, you God damn know that double bass is killing the original in the most embarrassing way....
I like ur vids, but would you learn to say PortNO-y, not Portnee, please. Second vid I've heard you do that. It's annoying.
If that Nickelback show had happened, they'd be like "Wow, this is the greatness we could achieve if we stopped writing fucking pop-songs?!"
The Best cover ever, are you agree?... NB needs a MP, the original drums sounds so simple to me. My humble opinion.
Poor Nickleback... 😆 They're actually a pretty decent rock band but they do take a lot of flack for their multi platinum tendencies 😂.
I definitely preferred Mike's interpretation though. That ending is pretty weird for sure . Really abrupt.
Not a fan of Nickelback but glad they are at least moving on from that poppy garbage they started with. Just my opinion.
I've never listened to Nickelback (nothing against them) but have been a Portnoy/DT fan for 40-years, so I prefer Mike's take to the original. I found the original bland and mundane. Mikes was creative, full and rockin. As for him being back with Dream Theater - ABOUT FUCKING TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😉😉🤣🤣
I actually like Nickleback. They aren't that bad. I also loved Dream Theater. But i'm probably in the minority, I actually prefer the orginal drums that Nickleback did. Don't get me wrong I LOVE Mike, but in this 1 case, I prefer Nicklebacks drums. Although I liked the bridge and his double bass better.
back when it came out i likes " This Is How You Reminds Me " other than that they didn´t appeal to me, dont like them dont hate them just dont listen to them not my style
I never heard it either... granted, I avoid nickleback like the plague. I'm still trying to forget that photograph song. Lol
Haha i fucking loved this ;). Mike Portnoy just had soooo much fun with that song... 20 out of 10 from me :).
Funny cause in my opinion his “1st time improvisation” was a cooler part than the actual recorded drums. And I’m not hating cause I genuinely like this song as it is, as well as playing it on my drums too, but Mike’s style & flair was just cool as fuck haha
Killer🤙
Yeah the nickelback hate is basically fanboy hate IMO. They are a great band & got some heavy songs. I keep waiting to see them at festival.
Guys...we are talking about the worlds best dummer mmmkayyy??? He won "best drummer" multiple times for a reason and is in the best band on earth again: Dream Theater!
So in fact, he is not with Dream Theater NOW, like you said! He is a member in our hearts for more than 25 years and he's back baby.
Mike owns this song! So much better than the original (and, like Mike, I have never heard it). His fills and double bass are spot on!🤘
Dumbledore and his elder wands 😆
Mike's version was like a deep full flavored coffee and the original is more like coffee flavored hot water. Bad analogy? Perhaps
I like the original but now my ears have tasted a better brew. I'm ok with going back to the coffee that I can afford but I "Dream Theater" of the coffee that I wish for.
Great Vid thumbs up!
the double bass, with the Accents on the symbol and tom, Excellent!!
