- So... I went a little crazy, because ... I felt a little crazy. Anyway, here's a drum cover to the smash-hit (from the 1970's), Frank Mill's MUSIC BOX DANCER!
I pretty much killed it. Dead (or at least seriously wounded) Laugh, dangit.
Hi! I'm Jason. I own and operate a recording studio in Utah called Art City Sound. I've recently begun a youtube series of "full covers" where I cover songs from any era and make them ROCK! I do one video every week and love doing it.
You can find that over on my main channel, "Magic Jones"
2022 UPDATE - I covered the whole song in a new video. Check it out! -- • Music Box Dancer (2022...

*UPDATE* - I just did a complete cover of this song on my active channel, "Magic Jones" - feel free to join in the fun over there (it's a much more active channel) Here's the link to the 2022 version of Music Box Dancer: czcams.com/video/4WANAvUIpio/video.html
it is sweet brother....geezuz
Beat it fart knocker!!
Brilliant piece of percussion. How about a cover of Black Day in July by Neil Diamond where Herb Lovelle was the drummer.
My all time fav song, childhood memories. Beautifully done🔥
Drummers are insane! always tapping...tapping...tapping They're some of my favorite people... The worst case I ever saw was sitting in Georgia summer traffic. I looked over and the guy in the car next to me had his air conditioner on with all his windows up, tapping all over the dash of the car with real drumsticks! Drummers, indeed...🇺🇸 😎👍☕
This guy may be one of the best drummers I have ever heard.
Music Box Dancer was awesome before. Now it's even better. Job will done.
100 percent agree my mother showey it to me in the 70s I love the song
Still awesome after 8 years of finding this. I watch it once or twice a year.

Oh yes 5 stars👍👍👍👍👍
hey
Who are you? Fabulous!
@@Artcitysound I thought you were great! Were you playing drums with the recording, listening to it with your headset?
I've loved this song since it came out when I was around 6. It's always on a playlist, without exception. I just can't tire of it, but the thought of putting a dumb beat down had me angry, appalled, disgusted,...... but I have to admit you did a wonderful job! When I listen to the song now, my memory is filling in your drum accompaniment. Mind blown.....
I absolutely loved this, thank you so much!
Thank you, Adele, and thanks for commenting! I hope you have a marvelous day.
This is one of my all time favorite instrumentals and he rocked it!! Absolutely great!!
I like this song epic cover of it
I agree 1000%
FANTASTIC !!!! 👏👏👏Not only did you NAIL IT, you drove the nail out the other side of the board!!!
i was surprised how well this actually worked, awesome stuff,
Thank you! If I'm being honest, I was a bit surprised as well.... ha! Thanks for watching and commenting, and welcome to the channel!
I was surprised too, really cool
Way too much talent... and the guy's an actor too !!! Standing ovation !!!
FREAKING BRILLIANT!
I've known the original song by Frank Mills for very long and (sshh... don't tell anybody) love that.
Hearing this drum cover makes me laugh out loud throughout the song.
Thanks for making my day!
My mothers favorite musical piece, and she loves anything rythmic on drums.
I recently shared this vid with her and she could not believe how beautiful her two favorite sounds sounded even more beautiful than ever when brought together for this cover. Thank you for giving my 80 ' ish year old mother something pure and remarkable and just as lovely as she has always been in my eyes.
I could see tears of joy welling up in her tired eyes and it was a special feeling to us both.
Thank you again, you are a talented and gifted soul. And I thank God for placing you on this earth and in my path , So She could hear this .
It means very much to me as does She.
Thanks.🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹
I will never, ever get tired of watching this. Well done!
This HAS to be THE BEST video ever made.
Music box dancer is and has always been (a long time here i'm 50 LOL) one of my favorite musical pieces and i have never even thought for two seconds, i could love it more than i already do. YOU need to take a bow because you just did that. AWESOME!
That was bloody great! Loved it!
Absolutely beautiful!! Thank you for sharing!!
Thank you, Amy! Welcome to the channel.
Love this. I watch it all the time. Just great!
Immer wenn ich ganz unten bin schaue ich mir das Video an. Das hilft.komme wieder hoch.
At first I thought Music Box Dancer and drums wtf, but then GREAT. Specially the expressions with your face!
AWESOME JOB Jason!!! I was in my 20's when this came out, and I love the original version by Mr. Mills,but your version gives it a whole new life!!

This has always been my favorite song since the day i heard it in 79.what you did to this song was genius! loved it
Thank you! Actually, I'm not uploading any new content to this channel. I've started a new one called "Meaningful Hard Rock". On that channel, I upload new songs weekly! Feel free to click the link and subscribe over there. Thanks! czcams.com/users/meaningfulhardrock
I love the facial expressions here. Brilliant drummer, and one of my favorite tunes of all time. Just makes me smile the whole time.
I never get sick of you doing this piece .
This is one of my favorite songs, and you did a great job adding the drums. Thank you!
Thanks for watching and commenting!
The. Best. I had this song stuck in my head today for no reason and my wife sent me this. It is now my 5th time watching and rocking out!!!
You're a very fine drummer! Wish I could play drums like that!! I'm always fascinated by watching drummers! Fascinating how you guys are able to get so many different sounds and rhythms out of those drums! And how fast you can move your arms and legs and hands and feet and never miss a beat-it just boggles my mind!
Well, my new friend, that was a very kind comment! Thank you so much! I do a new cover every week, and instead of just drumming, I do the whole thing. Let me know if you have any other questions or comments.
That's really swell! I play this tune on my banjo sometimes! Of course I'm not nearly as good on the banjo as you are on the drums, but I love doing it! It WOULD probably sound much better if I had a band backing me up, but no, it's just me and my banjo! I have to sing the piano melody because I need the banjo to be whole band! Can you tell exactly what kind of instrumentation the tune uses? Piano and drums of course but I'm also hearing bass, various percussion, strings (probably synthesized) and possibly either live or synthesized vocals.
I kept avoiding clicking on this video as I wanted a piano cover. This ended up being the most satisfying video of all of them.
Man.. People like you make me want to keep creating videos. Thank you so much for your kind comment.
That was bloody fabulous! OK, now I will forever stop saying that the drummer is a musicians labourer... Thank you so much for posting it,
I think your face is the poster child for how this song makes people feel. I thoroughly enjoyed watching this--several times now.
I watch it over and over! So much fun you show in your great drumming! I had the record back in 1979! You do justice!!
You have to love the looks on his face at the beginning, and during the song... Priceless... You can tell he is having some fun, and that is what matters in life... Enjoying it, and I enjoyed listening to this. Great job.
conexn what I thought, too. Watching his expressions is almost as much fun as listening to the song.
Very true, that's exactly what I thought.
Indeed, I like how he goes from WTF to gimmie a minute to ok, I got this.
Love it! Felt like the drums were a part of the original part of the song. Well done!
I am ashamed to say how many times I have watched this video. Just brilliant ❤
Nothing in the world can bring more joy than being inside the music.
Drum cover of Music Box Dancer? This aught to be worth a laugh. OK I'm now won over and officially blown away, with a new appreciation of what drummers do for bands.
So glad you enjoyed the cover, Tom! Thanks for watching and commenting. Feel free to look around. There's a lot more videos...
This has been my favorite song since I was a small child! I love how you add such a nice touch!
Thats was fantastic!! I really enjoyed listening.
Thank you so much! Welcome to the channel. I hope you enjoy your stay.
I never thought drums and Music Box Dancer (soft piano) could work together ... I was wrong. Bravo!
A very good friend of mine used to play this song on the piano when I was in High School, and hearing this version makes me incredibly happy. Never knew it could sound so good. You, sir, have a very good ear and an amazing talent. Everyone who listens to this should be thanking you for making them more open to music. I tip my proverbial cap to you, good sir, and hope you'll keep doing these great covers.
Thank you so much, Fred, and welcome to the channel! Take care, and thank you for watching and your wonderful comment.
This Is An Absolute MASTERPIECE Adding The Drums To This Song, An Absolute MASTERPIECE. Could Listen To This Song For ETERNITY. 7/7/17
Thanks for listening and commenting, Thomas! So glad you liked the video!
Didn’t the original have drums also ?
Mate! You just made me smile big!!! Thank you 😊

Art City Sound sir, this was amazing! I loved it, my mom loved classical and easy listening music along with oldies rock from the 50's and 60's, she is where my love of music comes from, I remember this song from when I was a kid, thank you for putting this video up, you're awesome!

Love to come back and listen to this...soooo AWSOME....THANK YOU...
Wow simply the best love it
Thank you!
This song used to make the hair stand up on the back of my neck when I was a little kid in the 70's.
Me too I was born in '72.
Love the facial expression at the beginning...”OK, not what I was expecting but I’ll roll with it”. 😃😎
My late husband was a drummer.
This brought me to tears, good ones.
Remimded me of him listening to cassettes while he practiced before going to band practice. Always a perfectionist with his drumming skills.
Hope this makes you feel better look up ex order 13818 aka jubilee
Total feel good moment! Doesn't suit the music, does suit the music, hell if I can make up my mind, I don't even care, its just so damn enjoyable. Love it!!
I got such a grin from this. Sometimes if you search for the right thing, you'll get treasures such as this.
Absolutely fantastic especially with super headphones Love it 👵🏻👍🏻❤️💕❤️💕❤️💕❤️
I wish you and Frank Mills could get together and collaborate on this in person!
Absolutely gives me chills. One of the best instrumentals I have ever listened to. You nailed it!!
