Grace Kelly ft. GRACE KELLY?!??! // Mika // POMPLAMOOSE

[@Pomplamoose]

Grace Kelly ft. Grace Kelly. It’s just...almost too good to be true.

[@aloverahearts9770]

This song is just amazing! And with your voice its just.. perfection

[@David_Thompson]

Loving the sax!

[@mehmetkurtkaya3106]

I will add a comment here too. Liked it a lot. Do more of these collabs if possible. Thank you all.

[@nad4679]

Whaouuu! Y’a du monde , comme une sympathique réunion de famille🥰 on peut venir chanter avec vous??💛💛⭐️😻

[@stanrogers5613]

That is the best-controlled soprano saxophone I've heard outside of the classical world. Usually that instrument tends towards the Sidney Bechet side of things - which, don't get me wrong, I like a lot, but it sounds less like a sax in a higher register than like an entity unto itself. Bravo. Oh, and the entire performance and arrangement was delightful as well.

[@djkmaine]

Agreed! Her tone is amazing. Plus, she plays some nice fills without dominating the conversation.

[@kronosmarches2021]

@@djkmaine agree completely, but also, sometimes it's nice to dominate the conversation... kzbin.info/www/bejne/qKeXqJltl9-ZfKc

[@CoreyMcLeanLeitch]

I 100% agree, she is a phenomenal player! Choosing to play the curved soprano definitely factors into why it sounds so much like a saxophone though; the straight ones get this “Shawm” like tone that other straight reed instruments have that the saxophone doesn’t. Her pitch, articulation and control are what really deal the deal though!

[@hanspeters1901]

Mmm, what about Branford Marsalis with Sting? Look for "English Man in New York" or "Driven To Tears" They are both on the same level.

[@FranzStrasse]

Soprano sax players who do not make my ears bleed are a rare breed and Grace Kelley (as well as the ones mentioned below - also on my regular rotation list) are the exception rather than the rule. This recording is just wow. Maybe a little more ambience in the mix but the sax and the rest of the musicianship and Nataly's vocals are spot on. What these people show is possible is amazing - and I think I'm wearing out that word using it in connection with my comments on their stuff. As long as we are mentioning worthy soprano sax recordings: Dave Grusin's "There's A Boat Dat's Leavin' Soon For New York" from his album The Gershwin Connection.

[@SamLTate]

One of my favourite things about Pomplamoose is the faces on everyone playing: you can tell they know they're playing awesomely themselves, but also looking constantly amazed and impressed by their bandmates too!

[@808stevan]

Grace Kelly's sax work is so fluid and perfectly timed, yet so artful, natural and unforced...clearly the finest...

[@ilegalmann]

Man, 3:19 is so goddamn orgasmic. the sax player clearly know whats the shit

[@MattHawes]

Pomplamoose has done it again: Taken a song and given it their own spin that makes an every bit as fun as the original, yet almost completely different

[@genestatler2514]

This from an 88 year old guy; you guys are just wicked fantastic!!! I love the way you did this song!!

[@teknikgroup7597]

age makes no difference...actually, the older i find myself, the more musical "Experience" I have. This version isnt what a teenager would find attractive as, well, it takes years to learn to appreciate such artistry. You cannot learn it. God Bless Gene. TK

[@MattsBrabus]

Age doesn’t dictate taste :-) salute you sir

[@birdman7248]

I can beg to differ on that one, I'm only young and I have great musical taste (I hope) and I love this!

[@MoulfritProd]

Grace Kelly rocks on the saxophone! Pomplamoose consistently features amazingly talented musicians!

[@charlesperigord1599]

She's also very good on the bass saxophone. Here's a sample: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qqWZlqR6q5WWpqs

[@odistabettor]

Literal chills when that chorus hits.

[@dworkenlaw1]

Came here for Grace Kelly (the song--I'm a Mika lover.) Stayed for Grace Kelly (the sax)! OMG. And posted this comment for Pomplamoose, always brings a smile despite this pandemic. Merci!!

[@Lessareve]

Seriously one of the most amazing covers you've made! Fantastic ft, what a vibe in that studio!

[@ragarast]

Ah, man. I got to see Grace perform in Brooklyn a couple of years ago. She was playing with my friend's band as a guest and I was just completely blown away. So cool to see her here. Literally the coolest person I've ever been near.

[@guitarelaxed]

Wait, did I see Rai Thistlethwayte on keys? Seems he´s on everybody´s party from Oz Noy to Louis Cole and now Pomplamoose. Same with Grace Kelly. Playing with Adam Neely, The fearless flyers, Cory Wong and now in this constellation. Love it!

[@lorenw1553]

#pomplamoose #gracekelly and #mika . 3 of my favourite artists in one place. This is my favourite Mika song and you all knocked it out of the park.

[@Kirarak]

This time you outfunked the Pockets. Such bop!

[@robertjohnson1962]

Yes the bop is strong with this one. ( I confess I have no idea what that means) However, I do know what I like. 🥂

[@yy6u]

unbelievable how they compete themselves :3

[@isaacarussi5822]

@@robertjohnson1962 there is this other band that does funk covers called scary pockets, they make dope stuff

[@robertjohnson1962]

@@isaacarussi5822 I have heard them and they are amazing. I think we have similar tastes in cover bands. The talent in some of these groups is phenomenal. Enjoy!

[@FrazySting]

@@robertjohnson1962 Jack Conte is a member of both bands, which might explain the similar styles. Ryan Lerman who is a leading member of Scary Pockets is also a frequent collaborator with Pomplamoose.

[@brainfreeze1925]

Wow, this is the first time I've heard Grace play something pretty chill. What a great colab with Nataly and company.

[@dwilliamsnetosnet]

Everything Phenomenal - no surprise - but wow! and the Saxxxxxxxx!!!!!!!!!!!

[@heamomo0306]

Best cover ever😳👍👍👍 我聽到的最棒的翻唱

[@stefanie5205]

GRACE KELLY! is something in this! wow! 🤩

[@ExtraFancy96]

Grace Kelly making the rounds of all my favorite bands what the heck! Fearless Flyers, Cory Wong, Main Squeeze and now Pomplamoose!

[@ExtraFancy96]

At this rate she is gonna colab with Lake Street Dive and Vulfpeck. I'm calling it now

[@Kirarak]

Since she did a cover with The 8-Bit Big Band last December she's constantly on my radar.

[@davidarmstrongcharles]

I LOVE this. Can't get enough. Seriously.

[@DerBasti]

I swear my depression is healed now. Watching people with so much passion and hearing the result is absolutely awesome.

[@larswallgren872]

Sooo good! The a capella part before the key change floored me! Nataly plus Kula and Dugas, it can't be better!

[@TheMirolab]

This is SO good... hard to believe it's really recorded live in a living room!! And the studio geek in me always gets excited when I hear an MD-441 in action. That mic sounds great on Nataly's voice.

[@argentandroid5732]

Mika does translate really well into Jazz. Kinda curious what a Pomplamoose cover of Big Girl (You Are Beautiful) would sound like.

[@pyrotechnic96]

Having a saxophone doesn't make this jazz

[@bobcole612]

@@pyrotechnic96no, but the syncopated beat, and the fluidity with which Grace moves between major and minor keys make this a very jazzy rendition.

[@kellylee92]

Seriously..just fell in love with the Sax. The best Sax 🎷 She’s killin it!!! 🙌🏻

[@FoardenotFord]

That soprano sax solo was legendary

[@nate_d376]

Awesome! Loved the Sax, and sax solo! Nothing like a sax solo. My all time favorite sax solos are from: save it for later, and sole salvation from the English beat. Grace Kelly's playing is some of the best, too! Not to mention all the wonderful artists the rest of you are! Thanks for another great tune!

[@oliversmiddy840]

Absolutely smashed it out of the park. The saxophonist is phenomenal too. Chapeau team.

[@jacquiobrien9948]

Another wonderful remaking of a song that has already previously brought me much joy. Grace murdered it on the sax.

[@colebastian2906]

This song is an absolute TRIUMPH. Congrats, guys. I can't seem to take it off repeat!

[@SarahBloom]

So so so good! That saxophone, omg!!

Wow! What a fabulous sax. I don’t know where you guys find such fabulous studio quality musicians but it sure is great to listen to and to watch!

[@karenbrown4294]

OMG! I actually cried watching this! Bloody fantastic, everything was perfect, such a fantastic rythym, I was jumping out of my seat 😂 that saxophonist, I don't think she could ever play anything more perfectly for me!

[@oobihdahboobeeboppah]

This is an awesome song! I never cease to be amazed at the new dimensions of talent and enjoyment from your music. You and Jack always seem to pull beautiful rabbits out of your hat: The musicians, singers and talent you bring to us always blows me away. The sax was something I didn't fully anticipate; it had such a full and vibrant voice played by a truly talented artist. There's a plethora of reasons why Pomplamoose is my top patreon recipient!

[@johnventura1637]

There's no better way to funk up your song than to have Nick Campbell on bass. Also, who wouldn't want to be like Grace Kelly. Definitely one of the best and most fun sax players out there.

[@mpell66]

Very uplifting. Lovely to see the fun & focused musical collaboration, and really appreciating the saxophone playing.

[@kencrawford1126]

Oh my good gracious! Another one out of the park, folks. Of course ALL of your and your friends' musical talents and gifts are just at the top of the professional game, but that was one of the very nicest saxophone treatments I've heard in years! Please keep up all the great work! Oh, and I'm a trumpet player/guitarist, so that's really a lot coming from me! Nicely done, all.
