Lovefool - Pomplamoose (Live) - The Cardigans

[@patrickcronin6829]

Jazz chords. Rock beat… almost bossa with a funk bass…. Simply complex and awesome…….. halftime groove finale………. Love it!

[@anirudhyalahiri8972]

I love Natalie Dwan's voice.. her voice feels like the early morning breeze... such a mystical beautiful voice...

[@Podcastage]

The bass line on this is INSANE! Everything about this song is amazing. GREAT JOB!

[@DarthMaui]

I don't know. When the bass overplays on the verses I want to turn this off. And the POP POP versus Cardigans single hit and walk from the third, the charm gets lost. And the Rhodes piano makes me think smooth jazz or Grover Washington Jr. or ... Looking Glass - you know, "Brandy, such a fine girl"... . This is a bass player showing off while simultaneously missing pretty important elements of the original. for the sake of showing off chops, takes away from the whole performance. It just doesn't groove. The original bass line makes this: The syncopation with the keyboard and drums on those strong POP POPs, and the bass just hits the first note of that and walks to 3, then 4. It works really really well. And in this one the guitar player is nowhere to be found to hit the verse melody line during that transition, "So I cry, and I beg..." Ack! And then the definite smooth jazz swank down at the end. Stab me dead, just awful. Obviously great musicians, but I think some arrangement decisions were really bad ideas. The original song is literally one of the best songs ever. And a big part of that is that unique shipwrecked nautical keyboard tone, the fuzz guitar counterpart to the vocal melody in transition, the beautiful clean guitar harmonics that sound like a harp. Clearly people love this version, and I am completely WRONG. But the bass line is way off. Pull it back, stop overplaying, lay in the pocket, use that beautiful staggered walk that the Cardigans used, let the keyboard and drums hit it together, it's like the whole band is hitting the melody, and it is painful. It sounds dumb when everybody hits those strong notes together without the walk. And, sorry for being a critical jerk. Most of their tunes and interpretations are pretty darn good. Not saying anything about the chops, but give the bass player a chill pill and play him the original.

[@mloftin6472]

I like the bass tone.

[@ftwopointeight]

@@DarthMaui agreed, and the mix on the bass was a bit hard hitting compared to the rest of the accompaniment.

[@DarthMaui]

@@ftwopointeight Seems they have a rotating cast of bassists, and obviously the dude has chops. But the guy that is sitting in on Something About Us and Bigger Better Faster Stronger just hangs in there and it is PERFECT. So good.

[@ftwopointeight]

@@DarthMaui that would be Nick Campbell. Check out his channel Nick Campbell Destroys. Good stuff.

[@aliservan7188]

I love the keyboard player with a passion usually reserved for my cat.

[@Rojk]

Jack is awesome!

[@terryfuldsgaming7995]

I never thought I'd think a band was adorable, but his energy and her semi lost look definitely are.

Sam Wilkes. He's a legend.

So stank. Amazing.

[@christopherpimpleton6656]

Man, he fuckin' that bass up! I love hearing people play that good with four-string bass guitars. To me, it seems like people are all over the five and six-string, but not very many people appreciate the four-string any more.

[@darwin8964]

The pigeon bassist

[@hibikikohaku5875]

THE BAND IN THE BACK IS TOTALLY SLAYING IT. EVERYONE LOOKS SO FREAKING INTO AND ARE PUTTING THEIR MAX EFFORTS INTO THIS WOW. AMAZING. AND THE VOCALS WERE AMAZING.

[@Pomplamoose]

HOW HAS IT BEEN THIS LONG??!?!?! Ok, so just so you know, starting this week we'll be uploading A SONG AND VIDEO PER WEEK! And later this year we'll be releasing an ALBUM! So this puppy is officially on a ROLL (as the saying goes).

[@AMP_7]

PomplamooseMusic So good to hear something from you guys !!! Love nathaly solo projects and really miss Jack's material, but hey, wonderfull to have ya back !!! And PLEASE, do more The Cardigans songs !!! They are AWESOME ! A big hug from a Brazilian fan :D

[@basslinedan2]

[@SixFt12]

Finally! Seriously missed you guys. What the heck have you been doing for 11 months???

[@RCXXIstudios]

Missed you so much!

[@raynhornzxz]

1:56 listen to that bassplayer, out of this world.

[@jacobstunes]

true, is it davie504??

[@jacobstunes]

Golden Bison you’re right

[@MasterChibi]

Every so often I do forget I am subscribed to you wonderful folks, but man as soon as she starts singing and you start playing the joyful shivers go up and down my spine and I spend hours happily drowning in the vortex of videos you've made over the years. Fucking love you two.

[@TermsofService911]

this.

[@bostonseeker]

Insane what they do. They squeeze the unmistakable essence out of the grapefruit, leaving the whole scene light and airy. With the precision of chamber music.

[@bostonseeker]

And Nataly is a human metronome.

[@shezajewell2098]

OMG, Nataly' s effortless singing impresses me every time!!!! LOVE HER!!!!

[@user-pc2yh6oy7h]

Gotta love the guy playing the piano.. he has that energy that you can't find anywhere else

[@benaaronmusic]

That bass player is Sam! I remember he played with Knower in that funky song "Overtime". He is a beast!

[@erikklein5296]

I'm a bass player and immediately went.. "good lord that bass playing!!!" really awesome tone, punch and chops!

[@shutupandshave1926]

Likewise. "Been playing bass for 20 years on and off, and I will never be that good :'("

[@wordsarelouder]

those muted notes tho

[@daniloprates]

THANKS! I was desperately trying to find that song, to listen that bass, from that guy, Sam. Everything he plays gets 10 extra points!

[@sousamaster06]

Erik Klein - I'm a tuba player and thought the exact same thing! I knew I wasn't the only one.

[@mikemorris1512]

NO ONE can do mash-ups like this little band. I love the stars that come and go, showing off the best of themselves and making this band seem so accessible. I love you 2!

[@ayushcoaxednicorobin]

"Anything but you" I loved this line😍I played this song 100s of time for this line only...😌❤️

[@latonyacoulibalyditfall5509]

They are jammin in the back room, dude on the keyboard is All IN, AND I love the melody of her voice just a pure sound.

[@Martin-jd3oc]

Let’s take a moment to appreciate the fact that these clever lyrics were penned by two non-native English speakers. Peter Svensson and Nina Persson of Swedish band The Cardigans wrote it in ’95 when they were both 21.

[@rishav4343]

swedes have been making hits in english for some time now.

[@chad-wyck]

You know everyone's appreciating the bass when the singer can't help but crack a smile at those sick licks.

[@chad-wyck]

1:55 , mmm, makes me miss playing with a band!

[@raulomargarcia]

I never thought a different artist could enhance one of my favorite songs. You guys nailed it! Bravo

I am particularly enamored with the stylish low harmonies by Laura. 1:47 That's assuming I can single out only one for excellence; cos there's an abundance in this little number. Awesome.

Love it! The keyboard player looks as though he is in his idea of Heaven playing the keybaord... like he was born to do it, told no for most of his life, and then suddenly told "OK go on then you can." You guys all look so happy making this music. I love that you seem to love it so much...
