POSTMODERN JUKEBOX "Creep" (ft. Haley Reinhart) - Radiohead Cover // Audio Engineer & Wifey 🥷🏻 React

[@GaryLBlakeley]

One of the running gags with Postmodern Jukebox, is the fact the drummer is almost always hidden. This song is amazing, I actually prefer this to the original. Welcome to the PMJ rabbit hole. Scott Bradley the guy on the piano does the arrangements. You should check out there cover of Seven Nation Army also ft. Haley. IMO you cant go wrong with PMJ.

[@Harry-ie3nt]

It never was a deliberate gag. It's that Scott never had the room to show the drummer in most of the videos. As he always did them in his living room and a lot of them in the early days were in a small apartment living room. Today, he lives in a mansion and has plenty of room, which is why the drummer is always shown these days .

[@briansmith48]

Their: It's All About That Base, is better than the original.

[@antivanti]

So the story, according to Scott Bradley, if I remember correctly, is that this arrangement was originally made for another singer but Haley liked it so much that she played around with it by herself at home. Then while on tour they had a day without stage performances where they recorded a bunch of these videos. At the end of the session Scott asks Haley if she wants to have a go at this song. After the touring and recording she felt a bit worn out and hesitated. Scott said they should at least do one take. And they did just one take. This one. That's all she needed! And the rest is history, closing in on 120 Million views (not even counting EVERY reaction channel having looked at it)!😁

[@JeffTokayer]

This is the story according to Scott Bradlee kzbin.info/www/bejne/g6TOfIZ-ZrCZarcsi=Sj2NI67p7LtlV5Z9

[@steverobitaille1503]

If you liked the horns in this again her Seven Nation Army cover is outstanding with Haley but the horns are unbelievable! A can’t miss and a must watch!!!

[@chericeevans9990]

Absolutely!!

[@garye4145]

I just love this version of Creep. This lady has such a beautiful voice that keeps you mesmerized. Her range is just outstanding! Just to let you know Pau from The Warning also did this song with just a Piano and it's also very very good.

[@sallysmith5090]

So glad that you saw this one... this is a favorite.. I Love Haley Reinhart.. she does a duet with Morgan James.. "Dear Prudence".. those two voices together.. wow.. just woww.. Hope you all have a great holiday.. Stay safe!

[@JimAult]

Yes, you need to review Dear Prudence with Haley + Morgan singing, and Morgan's husband, Doug on guitar recording "Dear Prudence".

[@papadog1999]

2:07 "Is there a drummer back there playing?". As I've come to understand, it's kind of a running gag. In almost all PMJ videos, you can hear, but rarely ever see the drummer.

[@jeffreyjameson5510]

Check out PMJ and Haley doing Seven Nation Army. It’s always tough for me decide which I like better between these two covers. Haley definitely uses all her vocal tools in SNA. And so theatrical and fun to watch. Jessica Rabbit in the flesh

[@angielofton6372]

Haley is the bombdiggety. Yes, Scott is playing trills on the piano. I love what he plays after she sings, “ You float like a feather…” it sounds like a feather floating. All shot live by one camera. Most of the time the drums are located behind the singer. She could be a jazz singer from the 30s to the 50s. Try Seven Nation Army by her and PMJ.

[@brucekaraki1832]

as well, Pau from the Warning did this cover 3 yrs ago, not produced, just in her phone & on the piano, but is an excellent listen for non- produced vocals 😋

[@justinvincent8987]

Their cover of No Doubt Don’t Speak is an absolute must.

[@iJGrimmX]

This Version of creep is pretty much my favorite version of the song with Pau from the Warning's version a close second. Pau's is perhaps even more impressive because she learned the song in just a few hours for an Instagram challenge. Other good PMJ covers: Morgan James's version of Take me to Church, Maps (that one's great and an early PMJ tune), Who wants to live forever. Also I'd recommend trying the band's Pomplamoose, specifically their mashup of Seven Nation Army and Sweet Dreams, and Scary Pockets version of Fix You sung by Monica Martin, and Wild World sung by Rett Madison. Great twists on those songs.

[@almaher8909]

All bow before the mighty Pau.

[@TaverenTech]

PMJ All about the bass, has BOTH Morgan James & Hailey Reinhart!~

[@user-wf9py1es9z]

Please react to Angelina Jordan, "Now I'm a Fool". She will also blow your mind.

[@Harry-ie3nt]

Nah, she is not a mind blowing artist and she is also not very attractive if you get my drift.

[@robsambosky6444]

GREETINGS EARTH COUPLE: I see someone already beat me to recommending It's All About the Bass, and 7 Nation Army, which have had many a man going oglie-eyed and/or on the floor in a fetal position.

[@denisehaukkala9742]

You cannot go wrong following more of Haley Reinhart or postmodern jukebox. They bring vintage style back en vogue and at their best, make you think you just heard the original instead of the cover. So many good options. 7 nation army Black hole sun Don't speak All About the bass Dream on Sweet child of mine

[@cheryl8466]

The grit and range of her voice gives me chills the entire way through... Beautiful..

[@tonyporenshenko425]

The rare instances that the cover is better than the original

[@cheryl8466]

This is hands down, one of my favorite Modern Jukebox songs. It still gets stuck in my head from time to time. ❤❤❤ SO good!

[@ElizabethRoss-uj8rl]

This is my favorite "Creep" -- by far, hands down, no joke! It reminds me of the slippery sexy jazz of the posh clubs in the 40s. Haley's vocal control is amazing. I understand that she was sick that day -- wow. Fantastic reaction!

[@cirrustate8674]

It wasn't that she was sick, it was that she was pretty much exhausted from an extensive day of performing already.

[@hollybrown1073]

And done in one take!

[@rebeccarose7405]

I knew this was going to blow you both away! More Post Modern Jukebox any day, because all the singers Scott Bradley arranges for are amazing. There’s a version of “All About That Bass” with Haley, Morgan James, and another singer (as well as bass shenanigans!) that is so much fun! Side note, VoicePlay has a very cool version of “Creep” too! ❤️🎶

[@davidrodenkirk5561]

I concur.

[@glennelfmann3143]

the other singer, Adraina Savalas, Telly Savalas's daughter

[@briansmith48]

​@@glennelfmann3143. 😂 Who loves you baby? 😅

[@mephitismephitis6825]

The drummer pops out, back behind everyone, and waves in their arrangement of "All About That Bass".

[@donnamarie0703]

Also, Hailey did "Don't Speak" with PMJ. Another great one!

[@HaleysTusk]

"Creep" was one of 3 songs recorded on PMJ's day off in Zurich, Switzerland on their 2015 European Tour. Haley had only joined the tour a week earlier, it was her first professional gig after American Idol. WHEN you react to one of the other vids recorded that day, "All About That Bass" w/ Haley, Morgan James & Ariana Savalas (Telly "Kojak" Savalas' daughter), near the end of that video, you will see the drummer peek out and wave from behind Haley. Coincidentally, both those songs, "Creep" & "All About That Bass" was the first time Scott Bradlee, PMJ creator, re-recorded a cover he'd already done, the correct decision since those songs are now #'s one and two most viewed videos on their channel.

[@jaybourne1185]

welcome to the wonderful world of haley reinhart. she maybe the best vocalist and performer of our time (certainly the most underrated). i think what is so phenomenal about haley is not just her amazing silk to sandpaper voice but also her character and soul that she puts into the performances. postmodern jukebox (aka pmj) takes current popular songs and completely re-imagines them vintage (1920s to 1960s) in the music itself and style of the performances that actually take you back in time. they have a variety of good vocals but haley with pmj is exceptional. all the other haley/pmj collabs are great but her other top ones are : "all about the bass", "seven nations army", and "don't speak". haley's solo career is also superb. she has 4 LPs including: "listen up", "better", "what's that sound" and "lo-fi soul" and a recent EP "off the ground" for which she is currently on tour. her lack of mass popularity and industry recognition is primarily due to her resistance to major labels in order to maintain creative control of her music. this significantly limits exposure to tv, radio, etc. her biggest hit is "can't help falling in love with you" that was created and promoted for an Extra Gum for a commercial. it now has well over 425m views and reached double platinum status. it is stunning and frequently described as what love sounds like here: (kzbin.info/www/bejne/laaxoXiYqZyqldE ) 😎

[@musikbyjh]

Thanks so much for the info!!

[@charleswharmbyiii8401]

All I got to say is, All About That Bass, also PMJ! You won't be sorry!

[@DaElfer]

Lots of people cover it this takes the cake

[@George-ux6zz]

Hayley's parents had a band as well. She's been singing with them since she was a kid. There's a video with just Hayley and her dad playing guitar. So Hayley is a seasoned pro, there's nothing about her being an amateur.

[@nickerpsg1]

Check out her "Seven Nation Army.....FANTASTIC !!!!!

[@gcarap]

The "hidden drummer" is a long-running gag with PMJ videos, almost aways obstructed. Occasionally he will bend his body to one side or the otther and wave 😀

[@TaverenTech]

PMJ Don't Speak w/ Haley, just EVERY PMJ w/ Haley

[@jduncanandroid]

It's a running joke in PMJ that most of the time, the drummers are intentionally obscured

[@u8myshorts]

the piano!!!

[@IvanDem99]

You absolutely want to do PMJs "All about the bass". 3 great singers and a stand-up Bass Solo. How can you miss

[@carolburnett190]

Mind blown? Haley came in 3rd in her season of American Idol. She is an amazing vocalist who is extra special in jazz. Haley, Morgan James, and someone else do All About That Bass with PMJ. Haley’s American Idol buddy, Casey Abrams, sometimes pops in on standup bass and occasional vocals. Both of them love jazz and scatting. I’m so glad you did this one!

[@vCoralSandsv]

Seriously check out Seven Nation Army for more Haley PMJ amazingness

[@brentlund2272]

Haley...... ! !

[@LostHate]

Gonna point out the obvious, you should check out Pau from The Warning doing this song on the home piano. She did it as an online fan challenge. She took a few hours to learn recorded and posted it.

[@musikbyjh]

Definitely will check you. You KNOW we love Pau!! ❤️🥷

[@DocttorBR]

Hi guys. I recommend PMJ "MMMBOPP" version. PMJ is awesome.

[@dawgeral333]

Haley is my favorite female singer...hands down. Check out "Seven Nation Army". PMJ again. Amazing!!

[@TR4Ajim]

Haley’s cover of “Don’t Speak” is great too. Also not showing the drummer in these early videos was sort of a PMJ joke.

[@thesidsss]

Great reaction and analysis! For a bit more than a glimpse of the drummer check out Haley and PMJ doing To eLo’s Habits.

[@musikbyjh]

Thanks for the compliment. Will do on the song !!

[@larryc3860]

could be set in a 1950s jazz club, right? Scott Bradlee's ( the pianist ) arrangement is magic and Haley is, well, she's simply Haley......scotch and soda all around.........

[@jimk2824]

My favorite part of reactions to this is the look on the reactor's faces when she does the key change at the end without any backup for a few beats. It's like watching people think a pitcher is about to give up his no-hitter, then realize it was planned.

[@George-ux6zz]

If you like the horns you will love 7 NATION ARMY.

[@BiggySn1p3r]

If you've seen the Extra Gum commercial where the guy proposes using the gum rapper, that's Haley singing.

[@franvolz4854]

If you love Creep, watch Haley Reinhart with Seven Nation Army! You'll LOVE it! ❤

[@georgelynch6139]

They started the videos in Scott’s tiny apt so the drummer was pretty well hidden behind the vocalist and it became a humorous quirk in a lot of their later vids

[@maddalenacherchi]

Please react to PMJ Morgan James Dream on Aerosmith cover ! Thanks from Italy ❤ ..Haley is fenomeno ❤❤❤

[@grannyLynnsCreations]

perfect example of a 1940's Torch Singer, she is so good.

[@geniej9093]

Have to say, love your new backdrop...Thrilled you have PMJ w/Haley in your wheelhouse now. PMJ has some great musicians and Scott does fabulous arrangements. Lots of technical stuff for Jeremy to analysis for us. Love it!!

[@patrickarts9091]

The PMJ version of Dream On is also incredible.

[@larrycarlisle3163]

They almost always hide the drummer...

[@allendesalme197]

Watch her and Morgan James singing The Beatles "Dear Prudence" sitting on a couch with Morgan's husband playing jazz acoustic guitar to accompany...

[@WilliamGreer]

Haley shows her royalty here. She's a princess to Ella Fitzgerald the queen. There's nothing to compare to those women's voices and incredible understanding of the music they made.

[@donnamarie0703]

Hi there. I really liked this one with Hailey & PMJ: Maps - Vintage 1970s Soul Maroon 5 Cover ft. Morgan James

[@do0ranfrump260]

If you care to listen to more of this style that is not pmj Haley is up to the task.. check out Jeff Goldblum and Haley Reinhart "My Baby Just Cares..."

[@simianinc]

Since Jeremy mentioned he loves an upright bass, you should check out PMJ's cover of all about the bass with Haley & Morgan James

[@mikeconway9849]

Great reaction! I know you liked Morgan James and PMJ. Watch All About That Bass with PMJ featuring Haley, Morgan and Ariana Savalas. I've seen Haley and Morgan live and they each had a fantastic show.

[@sirkat344]

Now ya gotta do Haley/PMJ 7 nation Army! Ella Fitzgerald/Billie Holliday/Jessica Rabbit-all in 1 5'2" package. Truly a 30s style jazz version. You'll love it!

[@dalebuck7168]

An "Easter Egg" of most of the PMJ videos is that they hide the drummer and occasionally he will lean out and wave...its become a joke.

[@shannonlasell]

[@GS-xt8fu]

That’s nuts. Wonderful. Talent

[@George-ux6zz]

Hayley has her own band. But PMJ calls her up for certain songs. The piano player rearranges the songs. They take popular songs and turn them into a jazzy, blues sound. I think you would like 7 NATION ARMY, talking about sassy jazzy and sexy. She's very playful in that song.

[@thefogfriendlyoldguy1627]

Since you've now met Haley Reinhart AND Morgan James, you might have a lot of fun with the PMJ version of All About That Bass with both Haley and Morgan plus Ariana Savalas. It will put a huge smile on both of your faces. Here's the link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/l33Ri2SEhtJlq80

[@marieball8441]

If you want to hear horns, you ought to hear Haley singing Seven Nation Army with PMJ. They do it in the style of a New Orleans funeral dirge and it's absolutely unique and unexpected. Please check it out.

[@cirrustate8674]

Postmodern Jukebox is a fun rabbit hole, and a DEEP rabbit hole. There's quite a few more songs on which they collaborate with Haley, but she's far from the only singer featured by PMJ. And Haley herself is a pretty deep rabbit hole, as she's done quite a few things on her own or as part of other groups. She does a piece with Jeff Goldblum, for example.

I understand that Haley did this on her first take and requested another because she had been performing a lot and felt her voice may have been a bit rough. But Scott said, "We're good".

[@vidpie]

It's not really a running gag that you can't see the drummer. In the beginning, PMJ recorded in the living room of Scott Bradlee's NYC apartment, which as you might expect was small. The drummer was placed in the back due to space limitations. Bradlee relocated to Los Angeles and continued recording in his apartment. This video was recorded on a day off during PMJ's first European tour not long after his relocation. It is one of the three videos they made that day. It was a rented studio, so they probably went with the setup/staging they knew. Bradlee bought a home in Los Angeles, which led to some recordings where the drummer was more visible. At some point he relocated to a farm in Iowa or Nebraska or somewhere. I'm not sure where they record now, but post-COVID they no longer post a video a week. Scott Bradlee is in the most recent videos, so I suspect he travels to the west coast to record. In the newer recordings the drummer is clearly visible.

[@itzel1735]

Often you can’t see the drummer in Postmodern Jukebox videos. 😂 PMJ just announced their early 2024 dates. It’s a bit like a variety show, and Haley is not on the tour, but if you appreciate the music, it good.

[@georgelynch6139]

Effie Passero was performing “Creep” in their last tour in Europe, she does her interpretation of Scott’s composition and soars up and beyond, Scott’s arrangement showcases his guest vocalist talents in their own way. Try not to get stuck on just Haley and Morgan as PMJ has a ton of outstanding “under the radar” vocalist on their KZbin channel, Miche, Hannah, Gunhild, Cortnie, Alison, Effie and the list goes on......

[@itzel1735]

@@georgelynch6139 Agree. I’ve seen them once in person. And planning to go again.

I remember watching Haley Reinhart on "American Idol" back in 2011 (she placed 3rd). Loved her sultry voice & it really suits her doing this old style of singing with Postmodern Jukebox. This is a great cover of "Creep".

[@Harry-ie3nt]

Had American Idol had "one vote per contestant", as opposed to "almost unlimited power voting", Haley would have won American Idol in a landslide, as opposed to being ripped off as she was.

[@umpdaddy1]

They hide the drummer most of the time as a running gag. Haley is an amazing singer and performer and has superstar talent but she rerfuses to play the industry's games so she is relegated to small venues, which apparently suits her fine. She grew up with parents that had a working rock band. Don't Speak or Seven Nation Army would be great to react to along with many others. Those two and this one show her range and versitility. She's one of the very best female vocalist we have.. She'll blow your socks off folks.

[@George-ux6zz]

Her voice is naturally raspy

[@kurttuchscherer7706]

I appreciate it that you paid attention to the music. So often people are blown away by the vocals, and there is nothing wrong with that. I mean c' mon the are phenomenal. But the arrangements that Scott Bradlee comes up with are such perfection.

[@robertmongerthe9025]

You might notice on all pmj videos instruments are all acoustic. In essence you could bring this ensemble onto any street corner and they'd sound every bit as good. That kind of talent is a rare and special thing,

Haley is my favorite female artist. Need to watch "Don't Speak", No Doubt cover, "Black Hole Sun", and "Seven Nation Army", by the white stripes. Also this video was taken on the first take, and Haley was sick. This was done during their European Tour.

The drummer is always hidden in the back in their videos. It's become something of an inside joke with PMJ over the years.Check out their version of All About The Bass with Haleigh, Ariana Savalas, and Morgan James who is every bit the vocal equal of Ms. Reinhart.

[@BrianLarin]

They did this in one take

[@KeepEvery1Guessing]

I'm happy to finally get to enjoy you enjoying this. Hiding the drummer behind the singer was a PMJ running gag for a while. This one reminds me of "Mother's", a bar in Peter Gunn where his girl friend sang. PMJ has lots of Haley. You will like them all. I particularly like "Habits".

[@Harry-ie3nt]

Not really a gag. As Scott initially did these music videos of his apartment living room and apartment living rooms are not very big. So a lot of the time, the drummer was behind the singers and not seen. I mean, why would you play drums for Scott to deliberately not be seen? Anyway, now that Haley Reinhart made Scott a millionaire, he lives in a mansion today with plenty of room to expose the drummer.

[@BudhagRizzo]

I heard she did that in one take too!

[@donnilloyd1355]

I've said it ever since I saw this video. Haley Reinhart is JESSICA Rabbit, reincarnated. A her other PMJ collabs only show it MORE, with the wardrobes she wears in those videos. I'm glad you got to see and hear her. And thanks for sharing this with us.
