A 17 year old drummer named Sina recorded a drum cover of Dire Straits' hit song "Sultans Of Swing". Little did she know, she was recording what would become the most watched drum cover on YouTube ever. It might feel like Sultans of Swing holds no more surprises, but no one told masterful drummer Sina that. She played along to a drum less backing track, adding her own groove, and racked up over 65 million views.
