Neil had such a unique but diverse sound to his playing. It’s amazing that you can recreate that feeling! Amazing job man, I really love these covers!!
Great video! Thank you so much for your hard work and sharing your talent with the world! My brother Ty was a studio drummer and he practiced to Rush albums while I read the lyrics on the albums back in the 70's. In fact, Ty got stuck babysitting me one time when he had tickets to see Rush and he was supposed to take his girlfriend but since he had to babysit me he took me instead! I was 11 years old and saw Rush on A Farewell To the Kings tour! Ty moved to California and soon after started taking drum lessons from Mark Craney and later Rayford Griffin. One day, an actor named Fred Willard moved next door to my brother Ty and all he did was bitch about Ty's practicing and Fred called the police on him several times a week. Fred drove an AMC Rambler and Ty saw it at a restaurant down the street from where they lived so Ty pulled into the parking lot and pissed in his gas tank! Sterling, you have the same kind of drive and skill my brother did and I urge you to never give up on your dream! Eat, sleep and breathe the music business, make contacts, take gigs doing jingles because it will get you in the studio and get you heard and make you contacts! Residuals on jingles pay bills too and contacts are priceless!
Weird timing....I just played this album last night while watching the sun set over the horizon. Nice way to see this on my feed the next morning. Just another brilliant performance as usual Sterling.
Amazing cover! I realize this is an old video but I am thoroughly impressed! A giant fan of rush and particularity a fan of Neil Peart, I love your dedication to really learning the song. Thanks for the great cover sir!!!
@Sterling Fuentes. What bass drum and pedal are you using here? And what microphone set up are you using for the bass drum? I love how distinct this is in your videos. Great job all round.
Well played!. I live that opening groove, harder than is appears, and impossible to play properly on my old electronic drums. A cracking song from an uneven album (I love Double agent).
It's all in the timing! My favourite song from Counterparts, and it came about because someone said their songs are too masculine or some such nonsense.
Counterparts album does not get enough luv It’s Neils best sounding drum kit in my opinion 🥁😎👍😀 The DWs are not even close Tama was second Slingerland 3rd DW last 😂
Hey sterling. Great video, they always make me happy and I enjoy every one of them, I was wondering if you could make a video on how you make your videos not exactly a tutorial but a show case of your setup.
I remember when this came out, I was like ok good deal Rush is back rocking a little harder this time, the previous several albums were more poppy than rock IMO, not that that's always a bad thing
So amazing. Your videos are really helping me learn the drums. Have you ever considered isolating the drums parts so there's no music behind it? Neil's parts are so musical, his parts are nice to hear on their own.
Also, I didn't realize the open-handed drumming that this song entails. It makes you wonder if Neil was influenced by Billy Cobham :) I'm guessing Yes!
Great performance. Now, if you let me, the only thing that was missing was more intensity on the hits. It appeared to me that you were hesitating a little bit, maybe too conscious you were being recorded. But other than that, kudos.
Esse cara é foda!! Notei q tem uma nota a menos no bumbo em relação a versão ao vivo Notei também que agora vc usou as ghost notes no outro vídeo não. God bless you! 🇧🇷🤙
Yet another flawless performance of a great Rush song. R.I.P Neil.
Love the fish eye lens Sterling. Now we can see the whole kit and it’s more crisp a visual too
Good call! Not only does it fit the whole kit but also reflects reflects Neil's lyrics from Limelight of "Living in a fisheye lens"!
My sister thought that what he was saying “living in a fish island”
@@chrissmith3668 hahaha many people did
@@chrissmith3668 I used to think that too! Haha.
Neil had such a unique but diverse sound to his playing. It’s amazing that you can recreate that feeling! Amazing job man, I really love these covers!!
I've heard a lot of great covers. I think he's the only one who pulls off Neil's feel consistently.
such an underrated song tho
By who?
@@MrSmcara rush
@FelipeDontLie underrated by who!?
it’s crazy how your kit has expanded over 2 months. it looks great!

Nice job! Thank you for keeping his spirit alive with respect. 🙏
You do great justice to Peart's legacy, amazing!
👍👍! One of my favorite Rush songs and you did an awesome job covering it! Keep them coming.
Every Rush fan knows this song from that infamous drum intro. Great driving rhythm. Fabulous Cover!
I love how your kit embodies both eras of Peart's kit: from the 4 concert toms to the electronic percussion and left-side floor tom. 👌
Nice! Pounding out those notes as Neil did. Loved this.
Nailed the dark vibe of not just this song but the alblum counterparts as a whole with the background
איזה שיר ענק וטוב💯🔥
Weird timing....I just played this album last night while watching the sun set over the horizon. Nice way to see this on my feed the next morning. Just another brilliant performance as usual Sterling.
Amo essa música. Dos 4:00' aos 4:40' é um dos momentos que mais gosto de todas as músicas que já ouvi...
Batera e baixo nela são fenomenais!!!
The performance spoke for itself. Bravo many times over.
I love how relaxed and calmly you play the songs!
Would you consider doing more genesis? Love the new setup btw
Amazing cover! I realize this is an old video but I am thoroughly impressed! A giant fan of rush and particularity a fan of Neil Peart, I love your dedication to really learning the song. Thanks for the great cover sir!!!
This song is very difficult, well really almost all Rush songs are difficult, lol. You played this song to perfection. Incredible job, Sterling.
NICE 🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙
Was just thinking about you yesterday Sterling... when/if you'd be uploading anything new. Awesome performance, as usual. 👍🤘
Who's the schmuck that gave this a downvote? Another terrific effort, Sterling!
that guy voted this down and then hung himself in a closet because he was such a loveless douche.
Simplesmente sensacional! Parabéns!
Good cover. I love animate, it's my favorite song and my fav album
Great 😮 amazing 😮 looks like a the professor 😮
This was a pleasure to watch.
One of my Favorite Albums! Awesome job, brother!
Great attention to detail as always. Sleigh bell trigger with the left foot. And counting the intro. Very nice, Sterling!
My favorite live Counterparts song
Wow. I love the new kit setup. Reminds me a lot of neils old kit during a farewell to kings. Amazing performance too
Please do more Genesis stuff
you never cease to amaze me, your videos are the best
high on my list of faves
The groove of this song is amazing
@Sterling Fuentes. What bass drum and pedal are you using here?
And what microphone set up are you using for the bass drum?
I love how distinct this is in your videos. Great job all round.
th-cam.com/video/imOc0VlpIJU/w-d-xo.html
love it
love the visual improvements! the wider lens and lighting look great
Awesome performance!
Fera muleque
Muito bom 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Very very good
Drums sound great
Superb!
Well played!. I live that opening groove, harder than is appears, and impossible to play properly on my old electronic drums. A cracking song from an uneven album (I love Double agent).
Awesome cover!!!!
He even added the counting in the beginning!
It's all in the timing! My favourite song from Counterparts, and it came about because someone said their songs are too masculine or some such nonsense.
Amazing...and briliant drumers ,
Wow. You nailed it, bro. Fantastic job.
Well done!
Great angles! I love how the angle is a little more zoomed out! Great cover!!!
Nice !! Very Nice !
Da fuq...only 5000 subscribers?
It's been a while, but when you do upload
Its worth it❤️
Flawless - just flawless
Great!
OH WOW! Amazing as always. Great job. I do covers too!
Counterparts album does not get enough luv
It’s Neils best sounding drum kit in my opinion 🥁😎👍😀
The DWs are not even close
Tama was second
Slingerland 3rd
DW last 😂
Show!!
I'd love to see RUSH pick this young man up and go on tour.
Will never happen. Geddy has said they will never play as Rush without all 3 members.
Hey sterling. Great video, they always make me happy and I enjoy every one of them, I was wondering if you could make a video on how you make your videos not exactly a tutorial but a show case of your setup.
Excellent timing. keep up the good work.
Another flawless cover, but how do you make your way to or from that throne !? lol
I remember when this came out, I was like ok good deal Rush is back rocking a little harder this time, the previous several albums were more poppy than rock IMO, not that that's always a bad thing
solid job
Excellent as always. Cheers to you!
amazing as always... brilliant..
Amazing.
Try the start with the Hi Hat included
Love the new set up
I missed your videos!
So amazing. Your videos are really helping me learn the drums. Have you ever considered isolating the drums parts so there's no music behind it? Neil's parts are so musical, his parts are nice to hear on their own.
excellent
🤘😎👍
Well done man! 🤘
Hey... Awesome Job on this, where did you get the electronic sample parts for the middle section?
Ty, such a great performance.
oh man, have u not done "leave that thing alone"? you gotta do that one
That’s the plan for this weekend!
@@SterlingPatrickFuentes sounds great. I'll be looking forward to it, was thinking of that song and wondering if you've done.....can't wait
Man This Drumset ,is like NICO MCBRAIN + CARTER BEAUFORD (Dave Mathews Band) = Neil Peart Drumkit
I would lose an ear if I could hear Billy cobham playing this one
thats a great angle work
Where did you get your concert Tom’s and what brand are they?? Love your set up! Great Work! Keep them coming
Perfeito!
Great cover
Perhaps Alex and Geddy ought to give you a call.
🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Also, I didn't realize the open-handed drumming that this song entails. It makes you wonder if Neil was influenced by Billy Cobham :) I'm guessing Yes!
It looks like you're in a new space
Nice setup, I think Bonzo’s your favorite drummer. Lol
Great performance. Now, if you let me, the only thing that was missing was more intensity on the hits. It appeared to me that you were hesitating a little bit, maybe too conscious you were being recorded. But other than that, kudos.
Hey also btw why did you change your snare batter head just out of curiosity.
Esse cara é foda!!
Notei q tem uma nota a menos no bumbo em relação a versão ao vivo
Notei também que agora vc usou as ghost notes no outro vídeo não.
God bless you!
🇧🇷🤙
Nota a menos?
@@elsdenf.8598 sim uma nota a menos no bumbo ( nas partes intro e no Chorus) em relação a versão ao vivo. Eu aprendi tocando pela versão ao vivo de 97
This scares jazz drummers. 😂
Would love to know how you do that bass drum fill with crash starting at 4.47. Is that a double bass drum?
Worked it out, double bass drum pedal.
I notice the new snare head. Any reason for the change?
What hell those 2 expect to dislike this video?
Is that a new ride?
Is that a 22 paragon?
F’ing A on! That was great hear and see! Seriously practically perfect. Seriously! Can ya really do any better? R.I.P. Hawkins too. Apply for the job!
Pues yo me animo...
Snare hits need to be more relaxed.. if that makes sense
