Me playing "Free" (Marcus Miller version) www.myspace.com/lydiakaboesj

[@JohntoddWallace]

Can't tell you how many times I have watched this video and shown it to my family. Great Job Lydia!

[@Emguilar]

Killer bass sound, killer singing, killer skills, killer musician :)

[@hollywood526]

Lydia, I love this song and everything you have done to it and for it! Singing and playin ain't easy! Much repect to you and your gift!

[@sullenpuffin]

I've never come across something like this, how refreshing! You have a lovely voice, and slap/vocals is a tough combo, awesome :)

[@mo6031]

this is awesome L'dia, please upload this video in High Definition! It's really worth it!

[@ibanezcollector]

I will x2 that, keep them coming Lydia, you pick the perfect songs to do as well. I havent heard Free for at least 14 years and you brought it back with Style... Excellent work as always

[@la196]

Fantastic job Lydia, bravo. I'm a intermediate female guitar hobbyist getting ready to buy a 4 string bass. Can't wait. Thanks for the inspiration; keep on keeping on!

[@DTorDeath]

There are too many days i wish i could turn on my radio and tune in to this kinda fresh sound. You are an amazing talent, full stop.

[@DarylSawatzky]

I've come back to this video so many times in the last six years, its not funny. KZbin keeps forgetting that I like it so I like it again. This sold me on you... I bought your album on iTunes, then Marcus Millers album with this song. I'm looking for you with Candy Dulfer, and look forward to more official releases from you!

[@The_Peoples_Drummer]

I cannot stop watching this !!!! omg!! beautiful voice!!! and ohhh so funky bass!!

[@cheezmoschmaltz]

Lydia, That was very nice. Great rendition.. and great playing and singing. Thanks for putting yourself out there and sharing your art and talent with us all. Mmmmm.

[@DeShaunBennett]

WOW!!! I can't stop listening to this. If ever you get the chance to make it out to Colorado, you'll definitely have a fan with a front row ticket already.

[@Xanadu1115]

You play with so much feeling and you groove SO well. I love it. Keep on doing what you're doing!

[@leeandrews2]

You're great!!!! I love your swing, the groove and the way you play and slap your bass. This will always be my favourite video on youtube!!!!!!

[@bluechorus]

[@UlugOzkan]

[@moeelgenial]

[@funkypunk1001]

[@LoneRevD]

That was so fine, I keep coming back to the clip, love the chords and slap. Beautiful job.

[@BassOperator]

You're really good bassist Lydia. I'm impressed. Bass and voice. I know it is pretty hard to do it at the same time. I give 5 stars. Really gifted.

[@billy9brugess]

playing bass and singing is a difrent world to playing guitar and singing and it takes alot of skill to intigrate the timeing and not loose it. Hats off to ya lydia

[@spikeonbass]

Lydia, You OOoOze funk. I love the way you groove just fanTastic! YOU are a very talented Musician.

[@womanlybassplayer]

OMG! You had me smiling out loud at your beautiful exhuberant playing and singing. Don't tell anyone, but this song was a hit when I was in high school circa 1977!

[@autismbass]

Splendid! A very funky performance like this from such an amazingly-talented woman bass guitarist like you who can sing and play like that makes me feel really happy inside. This kind of solo performance should definitely get on a TV talent quest or even a children's TV variety show - you'd be good at it. Keep it up honey - Splendid!!!!

[@Dazzypig]

Sorry, i have to comment, i literally just got this album and was 37 seconds into this song when i clicked the link for yours of a forum, spooooky, really nice take, you have a great voice and your playing kicks ass

[@LilPutter]

Lydia, I luv your choice of songs. From Cameo to Niecee, you got mad soul. Your playing is sweet too. I'm a rookie at the Bass and right now I wish I played like a girl... Lydia that is!

[@breese1]

Just one Word: WOW!!! You can sing and play you're very good. When you start slapping and singin at same time it sounds so well you're very talented!!

[@Nivtop2112]

[@JackLennon13]

[@therealmiddy]

Just... wow! Pure soul.

[@begeerzilla]

relax!!. I get goosebumps from your music

[@badboy250984]

totally agree. You are very good lydia. Playing a marcus miller bassline is hard enough already but you sang along with it which make it so good. Is like you doing 2 different thing at the same time.

[@ahage4x4]

Wow i'm stunned, great playing and singing with great ease, bravo !

[@emousejapanimation]

Love it! You were born to groove.

[@Tooltrocity]

Wow, absolutely fantastic. Anyone who thinks this is low quality stuff obviously wouldn't know good music if it bit them in the ass. This is a seriously great cover.

[@Brownhornet201]

Hi LYdia, fellow bass player here, heard you singing Free, and I had to comment.. You got some soul girl... I'm an old bass playing funkatier up here in the northwest.. A big Louis fan, you got some skills. Keep it up.. I'll post some video for you here soon as I figure out how to do it...

[@Kermittreefrog]

OMG! I am a huge fan of yours! you are such an enormous talent, and Thank you for sharring it with everyone and not keeping it to yourself, truely, it would be a crime if you did! PLEASE, PLEASE, keep them comming! look forward to your next vid. :)

0:41-0:45 just made my day... extraordinary piece. In truth I rarely meet female bassists, let alone female bassists with an amazing voice such as this one. Great song :)

[@TenFingersSixStrings]

Wow definitely an awesome bass player. The rythm at 0:42 rocks...aside from the whole thing rockin as well ^_^

[@Summer21.]

Love this bass guitar version of "Free", Lydia. I need to study Dutch properly, but I'll try and speak some that I know how to say, as well as read and write. Het was zeer, zeer goed. Geweldig! Dazza xx :)

[@MARZOSIRUS]

This is very well done. Love it.

[@funkbeastbasslover]
