Absolutely incredible how he not only captured the soul of the U2 track, but actually elevated it. The energy, the groove, the emotion – it’s all there. He doesn’t just play the drums, he tells a story with every hit. This isn’t just a cover – it’s a powerful reinterpretation. Total respect

[ehrwuerdigerjorge]

This is the celebration of one of the greatest songs of all times. Well done!

[NZStarWarsNooB]

After 36 years imho, this is the greatest intro ever recorded by any band or musician. The drumming has a different flavour but compliments it with great feel. 10/10

[sciencelab]

Since I first watched this drummer, I have to say that this song is the biggest workout of all his covers. Still 10/10. His stamina and timing amaze me. And I am in awe of Larry Mullen Jr. What an artist. Cuts deep to my soul. Godspeed.

[kristianduff]

The last bridge to the end is bananas. That double kick drum just elevates a song I didn’t think could be elevated.

[Ella-lhcl]

A song that truly stands the test of time—instantly recognizable, and your performance showcases just how exceptional it is for the drums... A song that deserves perfection and you’ve delivered it with precision, emotion, and an artist’s touch. This is what it means to be one with your instrument—a flawless performance that looks effortless.
Top-notch drumming as always! 👍❤

[JayMParsons]

I have loved the drums on this song for many years. It's truly a pleasure to see someone playing the drums to this song, especially such a fantastic cover. Excellent work! Thank you!

[enzolocaputo]

It' s the same, intensity, rhytmh. You feel this song in your heart, in your soul, in your body... Awesome!!

[videowatcher]

THAT WAS AWSOME! NEVER THOUGHT THE DRUMS WERE SO FANTASTIC ON THIS SONG.

[jimhenry]

I don't think I'll ever tire of where the Streets have no names. Finding this drum cover is the best.

[kristianduff]

The double kick drum in the last bridge takes this song to a new level.

[DerVeet]

Holy God! That was the best drum cover I ever heard -EVER!

[marcusr]

Bloody hell !! Not easy giving this song a better Groove, but this... WOW !!

[mezykin]

LOVED the double pedaling in the 3rd verse

[RadtechCustoms]

I still get goosebumps when i hear this song.

[michaelmorder]

I could follow how the beat got more intense and he used more and more drums and then the double bass kicked in! This guy is not only amazing but is also a true artist.

[trustno_one]

Larry as The Edge have created their own sound and way to play that's for sure.

[jpbaidal]

Few people will understand how fun it is to play this song on drums... so much feeling and energy. U2 really nailed it with this masterpiece, it’s a song that fills me with joy and happiness. Amazing work from Larry Mullen... and your cover is of course fantastic 👏🏻👍🏻 well done brother

[TimTheMusicMan]

Love this. The phantom drummer. And a super star drummer as well. What an idea. He deserves 100 million views.

[ohitsjustmegod]
