The format of these vids is basically that a famous drummer gets to hear a drum-less version of a well known song that they haven't heard before, and they get to add a drum track.

In this video, Mike Portnoy (progmetal drummer, for those who don't know) plays Taylor Swifts (pop artist, for those who don't know) "shake it off", and it's awesome.

MP is one of my favorite drummers, and it's cool to see him play stuff he normally doesn't play. He has a few other videos like that with Drumeo too.

This video made my day.

I love how he's possibly the best drummer on the planet right now, completely ignorant to pop music, and nevertheless not an asshole about it at all. Where a lot of prog folks would have thrown in an insult, he instead compared it to Bob Dylan.

I wish my teenage self could watch this video, it took me way too long to learn to appreciate pop music.
