@@hadoken95 Well, I think he knows it was the secret sauce, really. When I started out in bands long ago, I *hated* it when my drummers speeded up or slowed down, particularly in the studio. But I’ve come to realize that some rare rock drummers are masters of this-Copeland’s tempo variations really enhance the songs. They aren’t mistakes IMO (even if Sting may have thought so, as I believe I read somewhere.) They are a great part of what drives the songs’ magic. “So Lonely” is a great example: try to imagine the chorus without the acceleration.

@gustafsone 2 месяца назад

@@greggorsag9787He talked about this in his recent interview with Rick Beato (which you should check out on Rick's channel if you haven't yet). Stewart said he rarely ever played a song the same way twice and for the first Police record, that worked out great, but once Sting started getting his writing chops and ultimately the majority of songs to be recorded on their subsequent albums, Sting would come in wanting Stewart and Andy to play their parts in a specific way and that would always drive Stewart up the wall. Stewart's attitude was kind of like, "hey man, I'm the drummer here, I know what to do!". By the way, Rick Beato also interviewed Sting and Andy as well and each of them have their own perspective of how things went down while they were with The Police.

Iowa was the first album I heard blast beats on and it was really eye-opening to me into what metal music could really be. Many metalheads around my age have had their musical tastes expanded by bands like Slipknot or Linkin Park because they got enough mainstream success that it felt like everyone knew Slipknot was an extreme metal band, whether or not they knew any of their music.

One of the most brilliantly talented and coolest human beings alive on the planet, he should be way more Famous for his drumming period.

Growing up and learning drums I listened to him and Neil religiously. What a legend 🔥

I remember a Guitar Center interview with Stewart talking about Joey Jordison, and how he was so impressed, he went out and bought a double bass pedal after all those years. Cool to see, all these years later, he still has 'em.

My absolute favorite drummer out there. There needs to be more content of him and more stories to tell. One of the most talented and fun people I've ever seen!

Was only aware of stories of his fights with Sting during Police heyday and assumed he was a dark, selfish, withdrawn character. But he is one of the funniest positive dudes ever! Glad I accidentally clicked this and will be tuning in for more Copeland.

Stewart’s recognition of joey Jordison made me cry a bit. Drumming is one of those things where someone’s great talent is respected by everyone in the community no matter their age or background.

Mr. Copeland is one of my all-time favorite drummers; I love to listen to his playing. And every interview or Q&A I've ever seen of his shows me that he's also a really cool, laid back interesting person. This video was fun and informative.

I’ve been a fan of the police since I was 10 yrs old. I first heard spirits in a material world I was just enamored with their unique sound. So every album and music video I would want to see more of Stuart because of his incredible drumming skills. I believe the police are a group that doesn’t get the credit they deserve. Sting of course got pretty much most of the attention, but Stuart and Andy definitely held their own in the group. Would love to see a reunion in the near future.

I love Stewart, he's so wonderfully over the top. Go watch the utterly ridiculous version of Wrapped Around Your Finger that he played live during the reunion tour. It's _insane._ Dude brought half a music shop with him.

My wife and I saw the reunion tour show in our area and his kit was HUGE! Shame they're a one and done on reunion tours, but I'm very glad I got to see them, still have the ticket stub!

Stewart is the most wholesome lad on the planet.. smart, funny, humble and always giving kudos to everyone. Please we need more of this. And by more I mean like 10/15 seasons

the pocket is the best feeling in the world. for real about "play slow to achieve speed". it's that way with most things in the world. start small, start slow... etc...
