black midi - "I Can't Go For That" Cover Live on BBC6 Radio

What a wicked performance. Thank you Geordie, Morgan, Cameron and Matt.
TBE
I do not own the music in this video.

[@nedd.8479]

Greep's vocals in the second verse elevate this to a whole other level.

[@andyman9716]

it's wild to hear black midi play stuff that actually makes any harmonic sense whatsoever

[@George_]

very true

[@mrtaytogaming]

This just feels like characters from a dreamworks movie singing some pop song during the credits

[@noctaroh5121]

Geordie... kinda fucking kills this

[@big_sea]

yes

[@bigmichael2765]

Between uncontrollable laughter and absolutely grooving, I don’t think I have ever had such emotional confusion before

[@big_sea]

yes

[@sethliebowitz3380]

Morgan’s vocals are so addicting to listen to cannot wait for him to show up more on future songs

[@KAIJUCHOMPS]

have you heard the beefheart cover? he does vox there on a studio track!

[@swingAE86]

They're genuine and I like that

[@verdean11]

Ok Geordie has been pretending not to be able to sing all this time

[@KAIJUCHOMPS]

have you heard the prince cover?

[@verdean11]

@@KAIJUCHOMPS Nah but I wish they did some covers of some of Prince's Madhouse project tbh, something like 4 would be amazing.

first impression of bm is me thinking "hmm, they can't find a decent vocalist huh" lol he really is a decent singer

Its like they just threw a dart at a list of songs and this is the one we got

Morgan been to busy drumming since that age of.... 2 WHAT THE FUCK

[@handwriting8804]

@@apothecurio honestly that doesn't surprise me. He's too good to have started at 12 or 13 like everyone else

[@apothecurio]

@@handwriting8804 I started at like 11. I've practiced pretty relentlessly I'm 18 now. While I can follow along and play along to black midi song. The amount of fluidity and ease he has of pulling away and back into the main beat is a technical and comedic drumming prowess that only he can attain.

[@willjones8801]

nothing beats this man this is easily their best performance of this song man i love the fact they've got all 3 people doing vocals it's amazing sooo much better than the live performances i've seen on yt

[@agatemaluhina4621]

Never heard of black midid before, and then heard this on radio 6 - FUCKING LOVED IT. A fan from then on.

[@baileybowman2449]

The original came out when I was growing up and when my Dad would ask me to do something I’d sing “I can’t go for that, noooo🎶 no can do”. He would just look at me with this puzzled look and of course I’d still do whatever he asked. I did it for years and he never even asked why…

[@trayer9587]

cameron trying to find the pitch at the start of pre-chorus 1 is adorable

[@boatwreks]

This is cool but the original is def better.

[@dhruvram9021]

I prefer Hall and Oates' original but I'm LOVING how they made it sound like a Talking Heads song

[@TAD-LOW]

So awesome to just hear a band like them messing around not giving a single damn, ahh man, truly wonderful. Taking my son to see them oct 23rd in Asheville of this year, it'll be his first concert...so hyped for this u cannot understand.
