Bruno can do anything. He can sing, act, play drums, play guitar, piano & keyboard, write music, and produce music. Is there anything this man can't do? I love him an Phil together. They're funny.
He's actually giving a very important lesson here, which is about mentally capturing what you want to play, understanding what you want the drums to sound like, and making sure you're playing it accurately. So his vocalization of the drum part, which he then plays, is a very, very useful tool for getting your drumming to sound right. "Then you go psss-daga-daga-psss-daga-psss-daga-boom"
Dope. He always said his favorite instrument are the drums, which he proved in his first music video appearance "Nothin' on you" and the intro of the Super Bowl 2014. Pure talent and skills.
Gavin Oswald At least he can play it. His brother is a professional drummer so that's probably why he plays it well enough to know how to play it decently but not professionally since that's his brother's job. Incidentally, do you know how to play guitars? Do you know how to play the piano? Can you sing like or better than him? Can you dance better than him? Can you write songs at the same level of success like he has? Are you as charismatic and good-looking as he is? Can you even beat-box? If you answered "yes" to at least 4 of the above questions then you have my respect. But until then, you should know well to just appreciate that he has an interest in something you're into. That's what humble people do.
Chia Junchu I'm not trying to start a war or disrespect you, 'cause I get what you're saying. I just don't appreciate that every fan of him thinks he's such a great drummer, when he's only mediocre in reality. I can also tell he does not have the passion to improve on the drums and he's waaayyy too show-offish about it. To answer your questions, I play a little bit of bass. I can't dance, or beat-box, or sing. I do right lyrics and drum parts with what I consider to have and to be "quality", whether they are a hit or not.
They were just having fun jamming out. That is how they write songs. I doubt he would even think of showing off his mediocre skills in front of *professional* musicians (his brother was right there) who can outplay him in their sleep. He didn't even post this video himself but it came from a friend and band member's personal account. if you ask me, I think you were the one "showing off" in a roundabout way when you posted your initial comment because it implied that you know or can do better at drums, and be that as it may; not all of his fans are as musically ignorant as you perceive them to be.
Chia Junchu I still understand where your coming from. Thank you for what might have been a compliment haha. I just think he gets too much credit from most viewers of this video, that's all.
This guy doesn't advertise his talent that good in the media and i guess that why bruno mars just doesn't get recognised or that's why he is underrated. Just sayin'
0:33 "All different things, all different things, all different things." There's nothing Bruno can't do. Glad it was filmed at all, but what did Phil film this with...a potato? lol.
