Julia + Dua Lipa is the best combo in the world!!

[@antrich110]

100%! Thats how I found Julia in the first place!

[@bhoqeem1975]

True dat!

[@user-yz4oy6cr2p]

u said it

[@Andre-fe4lw]

Sooo true, now Dua Lipa knows where to find a temporary bassist when her bassist is unavailable lol

[@JoseSantiago-sd7qn]

Muito bom, essa aí é de mais, sou muito fã

[@slayer1084]

Pro tip: Listening to Julia’s videos with headphones will add ten years to your life expectancy. 🖤🙌😌

[@thecatofnineswords]

Make sure theyr'e. good ones. Gotta have that bass response.

[@robcreel4257]

Right there with ya!

[@brandonb86]

highly likely

[@kevinb3812]

sign me up!

[@Kbles2648]

So if we manage to preserve this, we can be immortal by listening to it at least every 10 years. Honestly-sounds like a great plan!

[@lotsofhairbutnomoney3705]

I immensely appreciate an actual artist and not just another bass technician.

[@jaymonster125]

Julia is Dua's Secret Weapon! She's gained a whole new fanbase through Julia's videos.

[@DmitryIsc199]

For sure. I discovered Dua only bc of Julia

[@kevinm.8682]

I love it when Dua Lipa does backup singing for Julia....

[@rafaelparedes1937]

😂😂😂

[@minikawildflower]

God that octave doubled sound is SO FAT AND SATISFYING, I love how Julia's tone always brings so much to the overall sound

[@Jeff-2112]

Seriously... that sound is... FAT

[@riddlin4u]

I play bass...and after watching you, I use that term in the lightest possible way. I'm 57, been playing since I was 16 and I am left questioning myself every time I watch the love and just the God gifted, groovy funk you play with! May you continue to grow and challenge us who simply TRY to 'ride the E' as long as we can.

[@Willieswheels]

As long as you’re playing, you’re slaying. Keep going dude!

[@svenramnefjell7742]

Don’t do that. If we all did, there wouldn’t be many left

[@2foong]

I wonder why hasn’t Dua Lipa invited Julia to go on tour. Julia beats the sessionist Miss Lipa uses on her albums.

[@careem3463]

One does not go from the bedroom to a stage like this, the mental game is crazy to play on the arena

[@duke0200]

Your Dua Lipa covers are the reason why I got into Dua Lipa and why my fiance thinks of me everytime she hears Levitating by Dua Lipa. Phenomenal work as always!

[@casualchauncey]

Same!

[@joshuabrice3800]

👏 👏 👏 👏

[@alchemistofmusic8265]

Same !!

[@scttstnfld]

SAME HERE

[@Hmingtea26]

Same here :)

[@aquariuswithfire]

That bass-face says it all. She owns this song...wonderfully done!

[@aaronedwards6969]

You can tell when she's really into the groove!

[@Erbay16]

From the intense concentration of only a few years ago, to the blissed-out bass-face of the latest covers... The way you can see Julia deep-vibing and enjoying the groove these days really adds an extra something to her already awesome playing... 😁😎

[@tobychenderson]

Bass players are a dime a dozen, you have to have that something extra to stand out in this world. This woman has it, musicality, rhythm and plenty of soul. 😊❤

[@juliamcdonnell8611]

when i was an eighth grader (just picked up the bass for jazz band) i saw your cover of Juice by Lizzo, and i was *memorized*. That video helped me to find fascination in the instrument. I’m now a senior in highschool who plans on majoring in jazz bass for college, i just headlined my first gig at my city’s top jazz club a few months ago, and I still watch all your videos. Thank you for doing what you do girl, it’s inspiring and i wouldn’t be where i’m at without content like yours 🫶🫶

[@salmonsashimi1330]

You know it’s gonna be fire when Julia posts a dua lipa cover

[@greattimewithdeee9540]

2:39 This lick was sick! 🔥

[@SrsBismuth]

Listening to the bass in this song clears my skin and raises my credit score. It's SO damn funky.

[@DUDUDISCH]

same

[@Piitaa_Pain]

haha

[@theofficelab]

Are you for real??! Didn't know I was missing Julia's bass covers in my life until I discovered her today... instant addict! That girl is the definition of groove ☺

[@harryaliasg8680]

My thoughts exactly!

[@Pwnsweet]

Listen to Julia's version of Hallucinate. It's so much better than the original

[@theofficelab]

@@Pwnsweet thanks, I definitely will!!

[@theofficelab]

@@Pwnsweet Ok, just listened to it. It's insanely good, you didn't lie 😄

[@tzeentchling]

Excellent chord phrasing! The bass line introduces a complexity not present in the initial song, almost asking questions with the notes that get answered in the next phrase. Such a vibe!

[@Paula_valbuena3388]

No one can play Dua Lipa's basslines like Julia!!!! Amazing cover Julia, thanks for inspiring every bassist!

[@ricarders]

Your runs are so clean and creative! Every song sounds better with your playing

[@slash2012]

No surprise ! Julia did a great job on this cover and this very groovy song ! Thank you !!!!! Impressive feeling and technique !

[@runswithbeer]

Called it!!!!! I knew you were going to do a cover as soon as this song came out!!! Brilliant!!!

[@TheBeastlyBurrito]

I can't even count how many times I've watched your Dua Lipa videos. Anytime I listen to the original tracks, I usually sing your bass line along because you just add so much extra life into these already great songs

[@inspector-tech]

I swear to God there is absolutely zero faults in this girls playing. She nails absolutely every single aspect of being an excellent bass player with perfection 👌🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

[@AlmogMusicAM]

I've been playing bass for almost a year. and every time I get tired of playing, I see a new video of yours and then I get motivated and go back to playing and practicing. Thank you!❤

[@Dwimordene777]

Some fills especially during the chorus sound amazing here but i can understand why they shouldn't be in the original song, however the parts before the chorus that Julia added i wish they were in the song. They add so much groove without colliding with vocals.

[@elpatator]

the unofficial collab that keeps on giving! rewatched all your dua lipa’s cover just yesterday, it’s just so good man

[@JTfromIT]

i never realized how much joy i get, seeing julia go full bass face.

[@wkseamans]

Julia, the joy in your face says it all! ❤ Lady, I hope you are doing some session work by now; you deserve to be handsomely paid for your efforts!

[@jrosser8630]

THIS BARBIE never fails to impress!!! Incredible stuff as always!!

[@Demonstormlord]

It's never fails to impress. Double negative is a positive. Never fails to disappoint is a triple negative, which is a negative. Everyone understands you meant to say something nice, but it can be unclear when you phrase it like that.

[@urbanyeti-nw8261]

Being able to watch Julia rock these grooves is proof that the internet can be a positive force for humanity! ❤️😍🤩 Thank you, as always, for another amazing track.

[@aresduvamp204]

That riff at 2:15 gave me chills. Amazing job on the cover!

[@skyazullopez6726]

All DL's songs that has been "translated" by Julia's bass groove will never be the same in my ears. This talented girl spices up all the songs plays. Again, you rock, girl!

[@joevandura9625]

Hi Julia. Thank you for another great bass section of soulful food to the brain! 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 ❤❤❤ You make every song rich of acting soundwaves to let your audience feel good AND the songs are way more smother with your fabulous amazing bass lines! Can't find the right words to put it in place! Love it! ✌️✌️✌️👈👈👈❤️❤️🙋🏼‍♂️

[@elecbass100]

As soon as I heard this song I knew a Julia cover would be forthcoming :)!nice sound!

[@HitMarkersAreFun]

octaver is the "chef's kiss" to an already funky af basslines!

[@crazychris1123]

Going to start to learn Bass in about 2 weeks, one of the best players I've seen on here! That was incredible.

[@mindcave]

When I badly lacerated my hand and was left with severe, long lasting nerve pain, I had to give up bass. I ended up giving the bass away. The nerve pain eventually healed for the most part, but it's been 10 years since playing and a huge part of me has been missing. Finally investing into a new bass to start again. Hearing you groove like this, makes me feel like REDEMPTION is near. I can feel my soul coming alive again. It's been dark here, but hello light. Keep grooving sister....

[@superman00001]

One of the most talented musicians I've ever seen. Julia's playing is flawless and effortless.

[@91dave]

Casually dropping a banging new Dua Lipa cover on the shortscale like it's 2020 again 😍

[@91dave]

(good bits of 2020 only, lol)

[@DJ_Shanen]

The thing I loved the most in this song is definitly the bass, I just like the combinasion with the last note that gives kinda a "chaotic" vibe I think, and you just made me wanna try bass fr

[@chaossanctuary4198]

Your face of satisfaction on playing your bass is so clear and brightly! Keep on vibing, girl. You are doing it amazing!

[@WimRijksen]

Damn that's funky. Love that octaver.

[@coricovell4971]

I listen to this more than the song itself. The way you improve upon every song is always mind blowing ✨

[@peachfreude]

I love when julia is enjoying herself

[@cristianoliveira2015]

The bass is part of your body, you make love some musics that I didn'd expect. You are incredible!

[@appranayuda]

Julia always listen to what's going on in all instruments, she adds some little extra touch here and there, but it's always fit to the original song, that's why her playing are always surprising yet enjoyable. Love it!

[@eldorado5319]

Thank you for breaking down this bassline, it saves me a ton of time 😍 Stingray + octaver is the perfect sub for a basssynth, love it!

[@johnwangermann8178]

Still the best version of Dance the Night on KZbin!

[@MichaelIZKOOL]

I remember when I was a young bassist watching Davie504 videos and you showed up in my feed as a (seemingly) even younger bassist that was killing it, and I was super impressed. You just showed up in my feed again and I see how far you've come and grown up. Super impressed again. Keep killing it, Julia!

[@annebrocolis]

when I heard this song, I immediately thought "omg, I need to hear Julia playing this groove" my wish came true🤩

[@realraven2000]

Nice another Dua Lipa classic, you make them even more fun! You're a total showcase for tightness + musicality. I keep coming back to your covers and wish I could give a like every time.

[@joshuabrice3800]

Seriously!

[@willisratcliff2285]

I've been missing the funkiest bass on KZbin!

[@milliewatson6659]

I love how you picked the perfect moments to highlight/mirror different parts of the arrangement in your playing - absolutely spot on 🧡

[@LordDelCasa]

just when you thought a dua lipa song couldn't sound better you drop this gem. your previous dua lipa covers are soooooooo good.

[@ryanshreevedrums]

Oh man I clicked this so quick. Amazing song and Julia always kills it 🔥

[@thibahult]

same here !

[@mr.s.7081]

Premeditated murder.

[@R4FF]

i don't even listen to dua lipa but i must heard this cover 20 times. insane talent

[@limamarco]

Dua Lipa better get Julia as bass player on her next tour. Unbeatable combo!

[@yaashjain6338]

I wish you and your bassline made it to the actual movie. Splendid as always Julia!

[@iFly81]

I never considered Dua Lipa, probably I ignored her existence. But when Julia played any Dua Lipa song, I couldn't help but love it. Please keep going!

[@ericgelders]

Groovy bass line running around the main melody - funky steady 😃

[@k_spats]

The *Silent Assassin* slays the groove again!!! 💜💫✌🏼🎵

[@BurgerEnForce]

I can't stop myself from bopping my head along when listening to you jam 🔥🤟

[@sifatccc801]

all of your dua lipa covers are insane!!!! was waiting from a long time to get a new one..and here it is..

[@parttroll1]

Awesome playing. The bass makes this track groovy and full of energy

[@achenarmyst2156]

As always just Julia, the bass and the groove. She doesn‘t need any more „ingredients“ that many other female musicians on YT rely on.

[@cossiedrifter]

Octaves sound so cool! 🤩

[@3349mm620z]

I still don't know how , but in every one of her videos she seems to get better ( if that's possible ) as the songs progress. At about 75% point of the song she's jamming. Great Job Julia

[@hombrepollo]

WOW that fingers, that groove, that sound, that octavator!!!! Love it

[@pdaysh]

jeez - been watching your vids for a while, you have seriously got sooooo tight. nice playing hun

[@KodaArcus]

Came across this at work, and after the first time I listened to it, everyone else around me got introduced to it as well! You now have several new subscribers! :)

[@Scrodmonkey89]

The Best Dua Lipa's bass cover that i was waiting for!!! Awsome!!!

[@mrguillemot]

Now that has started the weekend for me. A smiling Jules in the groove ☺️

[@piotrtadeusz7803]

Good very good bass line I'm impressed.

[@WolfMath]

Best version in the internet ....

[@secilymusic]

I always hit that thumb's up before the music even starts. It's always impeccably cool.

[@Bestybeatsy]

I am always so happy to see another one of your videos!

[@NajumSaleem]

Happiness is when this girl drops Dua’s songs bass cover 💯❤

[@abdhihernandez6845]

The cover I was hoping for 🪩🕺🏽

[@element-dh9dx]

Nice accents in here, smooth. Short scale is nice, they sound evenly balanced. Your playing is nice Julia, do not be afraid to go up by the 12th fret and above that, and don't be afraid to play even more freestyle. Sounds awesome, you are always so modest about your selection. Go ahead and rip those improv moments, you are ready to record for Dua lol.

[@marcialopes5119]

when I searched for "dance the night bass cover" I prayed for Julia's work ❤❤

[@user-qq1pr6rl4c]

Very cool timing, vibe and groove. Amazing bass player🎉

[@banoodel5121]

Wow! That bass sounds like nothing else! Has got a nice raspiness to it! 😍

[@agustinchamorro1308]

BRO!!!! it gets better and better!! Really cool tab Julia!! It's in my top ten 🫡 regards from your Argentinian fan!! 💚🇦🇷

[@Boomflame82]

Listening to your earlier Dua Lipa covers, it's amazing to see how far you've come along in just a short time. Keep up the awesome work!

[@satyajitsahu]

Truth be told, I discovered Dua Lipa through your videos. Though I had heard her name, but 50+ old me, a classic rock fan, didn't care much for Dua Lipa. During Pandemic, I discovered you, got hooked your DL covers, and then went and started listening to her. I am just hoping that you get to play these basslines with her some day! God knows how many fans like me, she earned through you.

[@tomywilkerson]

I'm a simple man. I see Julia has posted a cover, I click. Well done as always. We should send to Dua so she takes you on tour ;)

[@MrRansuil]

Im just a novice player who hardly touches his bass, but your vids always inspire me to pick it up again. Loving these dua lipa covers!

i can't even Bleev i put the 'BARBIE movie' on. but after rewinding this song a lotta times on the TV/soundbar, i got a Macbook and blutoof spkr, and listened many more times. And i play bass, ya know, pretty good. 🙄 and i can hear... this line. THIS LINE! And then, 💡 LIGHTBULB! Maybe there’s a cover of this? And then, i find... JULIA!! OK, Julia... i want U to STOP IT!!!!!!! Just, STOP THAT RIGHT NOW!!!! 😅🤣😂🤣😅 No but 4 sirius... Tony Levin, Dirty Loops, Ged, Tal Wik... none of 'em could do a better job. And Ur rockin' & smiling the whole time... very Eddie van Halen of you. 🙂 GREAT JOB!!!!!!!!!! (I think I hear some upbeats in the 2nd half of the 1st verse that U ain't playing. around bar 13? thatz OK, U still get a participation award 🤣)

New spectacles and the Silent Assassin slays another bass line with her short scale stingray. The pedal adds another sound dimension.

[@jrisdr]

Pedal?

[@kennogawa6638]

@@jrisdr In a concert the musician controls it with their foot. It is used in this case to make the bass sound like a synth.
