I've listened to so many shit live recordings that I was so surprised that I could actually hear all the instruments. Metallica did a few things on the Howard Stern Show where the mixing was just phenominal

@@christophermoore9436 Reading original post my mind immediately went to Howard Stern. There are tons of great sounding performances on his show

Sea Bass

💯. Pure joy

Taylor too.

Pat is a friggin legend!

Hell yes, nirvana OG

I just want to play with Taylor. It would be a cool band if I played bass or guitar.

Or they could just have Toni Iomi playin the lead with Geezer Butler on base, Bill Ward on Drums with Ozzy's vocals and they'd be even better. I love these guys too though lol.

Am I the only one solely paying attention to Hawkins faces throughout the entirety of the song? He's just so emotional, I can't help it.

you wouldnt be ZZ Top then.

That is a lot of Taylor Hawkins...Hawkinses....idfk

Ladies and gentlemen Mr. Skinny Bill Ward

lol sorry but the drummer is the weak link in this cover. Go look up Sabbaths version from 1970 in Paris if you want to see Bill Ward terrorizing the drum kit. He made the kit explode!

@@turboplazz I'm familiar with Bill Ward. Of course he's great. And also, this drummer is doing a great job. Not seeing how he's the weak link. But, tastes can differ.

Beatin' his drums like he caught them stealing from him

He is a big fan of Rock and covers a lot of different songs at his live shows. Check some of the videos out here on KZfaq. Definitely worth a look. He and his band do a phenomenal job.

@Kommander Rahnn So did Ozzy a lot of times. Dude's a pretty good country musician (for what that means now), and if he forgets some lyrics every now and then, so what? Most people do it at one point or another.

@Kommander Rahnn I'd rather a technically proficient musician mess up a lyric a few times in a song than about anything played on modern pop radio stations

he does a really good devil went down to georgia

He has the most powerful voice I have ever heard. Period

Even people who hate country music can respect what Zac brings to the table. I should know, I hate country music, but I have been in love with the Zac Brown Band forever because they don’t just do country, they’ve dived into rock music as well, not just with Dave and Foo Fighters, but with Chris Cornell on the song Heavy is the Head.

that's awesome you got to experience that taping really good musicians on 1 stage singing a classic and doing an amazing job covering it

Steve, your comment gave me chills. Super!!

Those are drum fills... the rest of the band stops during all of the fills. go listen again

not really out of his comfort zone. he’s a metal head. his band plays metallica songs and shit live

definitely not out of his comfort zone. zac is a monster

michael morris Comme si Comme ca.... Masomenos

I'm sure ozzy has no idea what is going on

You have to check Zakk Wylde's cover...

Yeah no

Sharon!

hitting those drums so hard

Well, as a drummer is one the songs that you just cant stop yourself from having fun while playing, it fills you up with energy

Nobody complains if the lead guitarist is hitting the guitar too hard.

I think they all really were excited to do this song!

Taylor is always having the most fun, and Pat Smear happily picking up a paycheck off to the side!

Jack Black fucking nailed this cover. It would be awesome to see

That would be interesting to see

Jack Black and Dave are pretty tight. He actually played the Devil in the Pick of Destiny Tenacious D movie. Pretty good movie with the final rock off music battle against the Devil (Dave Grohl) being the highlight.

@@seanriopel3132 wow thanks for filling us all in.... Like you are the only one who knew that.

I'd love to see Chris Cornell sing this song again. Shit.

listen to Bill Ward's original drumming and say that again lol

@@KyleDB150 hey now, you be nice mister. Praising someone's skill, is in no way disregarding someone else's 🙌

@@KyleDB150 yeah taylor is way more technical and versatile than the original live versions I've seen of ward and i'm saying this as a sabbath fan. Try again

Imagine if Dave was on drums. Curious what it would've been like.

yeah but so does the bass, singing, and guitar, all are fucking badass is my point

Taylor has it covered.

Listen to the original, drums all day long.

If you not start headbangin to that...your lost.

Never been the biggest country fan although I do like a lot of it... I do love watching videos of Zac Brown covering rock hits like this or Metallica at his live shows. Awesome!!!

@@seanriopel3132 for sure

very true blewmy mind awesome vocals Zach has

Farley Boy I know I'm late. But very well said

Randy van Vliet your dam right it would sell!!!!

They have done that. Dave dose alot of secret shows too.

So miss your vids

He def simplified many of the fills that Bill Ward used which kinda felt lacking for me in this. To each their own.

very true he stuck to the original drum beat they all was having fun and their for the fans giving them a good show something memorable plus I think the way the covered this song and the way they did the song was really respectful they could of performed the song many different ways but stuck to the original way it was performed by B.Sabbath I've heard other bands I've not heard of before just butcher covers they performed not trying to judge other bands I respect musicians my grandfather was a jazz drummer after he served in the second war in the army he was a medic he was a very good drummer and taught me how to play the drums that was a job for him lol it was tough in the beginning he was proud he got to teach 1 of his grandchildren to play the drums I got about 13 learned how to play the guitar by the time I was 15 I learned the bass I love music and thank my grandfather for being a musician and teaching me to play the drums

I always hate it when drummers overkill this song with fills and I'm a drummer. Plus there are a couple of songs by foo fighters with similar structure with breaks between guitars where taylor plays his fills so he is well versed with this style of drumming

Yes, quite....

Aye! Very much

shadowuser00 Wait till you see the guitarist get behind the kit!

Tim, laughing out loud here! Dave will always be Animal on the drums!

Just a awesome band

Lmao!

Oh Animal!👹

Best comment. Nicely said Mike.

Well said! Relax folks and enjoy it!

all rock and roll is real rock and roll

Absolutely

Obviously. They're just paying tribute to a band they love. Metal fans are just the worst with all of their whining.

+K6III450MHZ dude botched the lyrics in the first line

+wilson blauheuer my ears hurt after that

Eh, pretty generic really. Ward in his prime would blow Hawkins away, as would most of that era.

It's dead on.. There's nothing missed or off about it...

@@nidzdotnet76 its perfectly in time but its not even remotely close to the FILLS that BillWard played. Spot on?? No. Taylor is Awesome tho.

You listened more than once?

he did nail it in the drums he's a good drummer you can tell how much music moves him that's the happiest drummer I have ever seen beating the hell out of them drums with 1 hell of a smile true happiness right there loving what he does dedication right there he looks like he has a really good sense of humor he's probably really funny life of the party kind generous I always try to seethe good in people that's my opinion on Taylor that's 1guy is like to hangout with for a day I think it would be very interesting

That's pretty common for Pat.

+Devon jarrett Seriously?? It's really not great. Must not have heard a lot of covers..

+89kilemal go look at all the comments, everyone agrees it's outstanding. It really is. It's beautiful

Devon jarrett Yes I've seen them, and it's alright.. but best cover ever is a bit of a stretch.

+89kilemal I said one of the best, it's probably top 5, but if I'm in a certain mood it could be the best. Just depends. Gotta understand music brother!

Well if you think 4 guitars doing 1 one guitar job with a country singer performing a metal song is good taste then sweet as... the Faith No More cover is much better.

And live, at that.

@Goddess Sky go back to beiber

I ran across this 2 weeks ago on here I was like foo fighters then saw with Zach brown war pigs cover was amazing and well performed Zach blew me away I was like holy crap he's nailing this song good I have listened to this version quite a bit the past 2 weeks awesome Taylor on the drums with that happy smile

hell yeah very well said

respect him as a drummer, but he was way too rigid in this cover unfortunately.

DrewdogG8 Agreed.

right?

I actually am disappointed in his fills, everything is so straightforward with 4th and 8th notes and no triplets like bill ward did.

@@allthingscroatia and no FLAMS!

YeaYY!!! It's a cover. You're so right!! Let them have fun and enjoy doing it instead of criticizing it. I loved it, actually, thought Zac Brown was kinda bad ass!!! Great voice, and great performance all around!!!

Fro...?

If people wanna listen to the original, then go do it. Covers are meant to bring a new flavor to the original.

kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gZmSabZ41LSalHU.html

oh he's done more since then, but it sucks, so nobody knows it LOL, this, I can live with him doing; more praise to the FF though, they are just awesome musicians.

Heather Lunsford I wouldnt even put chicken fried in the top 10 of zbb songs

his band has covered enter sandman and it's actually fucking good

My dad goes to one of their shows every year, and shows me videos. I'm not a country fan by any means, but they are a very versatile band. If they made a pure rock album, I'd pick it up the instant it came out.

GR Rich listen to uncaged album. Still mostly country but its rock orientated

Christian Caves I thought he played it a little soft here. Maybe it was intentional not to try match the original percussion bravado of War Pigs.

Dave is such a down to earth and humble man. He is often called the nicest guy in rock. I love it when they bring a fan on stage to play at their live shows. That kid in the kiss make-up crushed it a couple of years ago. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/itCGgrqAsMeRnI0.html

Aiden Potter he's not the best drummer of modern times. Hell he's not the best drummer of the Foo Fighters XD (very close second though, bested only by Dave)

Danny Carey.

Lol dude, maybe have a look at blake richardson from btbam. Shits on all mentioned here.

PaN1xX what's Btbam?

Garry Garza a band. prog metal to be more clear.

like a kid in a candy store beyond happy you can tell alot about a person by their smile the way the smile how they are smiling what's making them smile and Taylor's smile is a love filled genuine true happiness in what he's doing best drummer today

Who doesn't

Troy Michael Lowry, Jr. He's a factor 🍆💦💦🤤

Your comment is 3 years old... True then, true now. I haven't been apart of many world changing eras and places or shit...even close to them. The Seattle grunge scene that spit out these amazing talents that changed how the world saw music. That was pretty damn cool to be apart of!
