Don't You Forget About Me (Simple Minds) Drum Cover REMIX

🔥 Drum Cover REMIX | Simple Minds – "Don't You (Forget About Me)" 🔥
🎧 My take on an '80s classic from the movie, "The Breakfast Club."

Welcome to my latest drum cover remix of the iconic Simple Minds track, "Don't You (Forget About Me)"! I've reimagined this 1985 MEGA hit with a fresh groove, new mix, and some tasty fills that blends my take on a Mel Gaynor classic. This track was one of the first videos I made when I first started my channel. A friend of mine asked me to do a refresh of this classic from one of my all-time favorite movies, The Breakfast Club. I added some of my favorite moments from the movie into this drum cover so be sure to watch until the end. ENJOY!

Whether you're a fan of '80s music, rock drums, or creative remixes—this one's for you!
