Puttin On The Ritz - Irving Berlin - Pomplamoose

[@wheezywaiter]

I used to really like this song. Now I'm really terrified of it. (and like it even more)

[@JakeWithee]

It makes me miss Peter Boyle.

[@FictionFreakk]

woa wheezywaiter likes pomplamoose!

[@arande3]

Craig, it's your turn to record it. You know you want to...

[@contrabardus]

It's not as bad as the Taco version. Seems to be based on that one actually, and the video is far creepier than this one.

[@Onyx-f7p]

10 years!?!?! Thats insane i used bop to this so much, im glad theyre still making music though

[@veggiet2009]

My favourite part of this is at 1:53 when she's seeing while putting on makeup, the combo of mundane activity + deadpan expression while singing is priceless, plus the cinematography of those shots are spectacular

[@kitster900]

I love her face at 0:17 like "wow, I can't believe a lemon with a face is the most interesting thing that's going to happen to me today."

[@kristinmalotte2368]

[@christophernava2284]

Still is to this day 😂

[@Pomplamoose]

This song is on our NEW ALBUM "Season 2" which you can get HERE: itunes.apple.com/us/album/season-2/id902077038?uo=4 And if you want to see us play it LIVE on TOUR you should get tickets to one of our shows HERE: www.pomplamoose.com :D

[@Pomplamoose]

Dear Fans, yes, those are clay eyeballs in my nose. -Love Jack and Nataly.

[@NewMocofanel]

You are the best!! You're always making me smile :) !!

[@mellegget9309]

I can't say enough how happy I am to live to see the day and reign of Pomplamoose! The greatest! Congrats on this newest video (in the works for a while, eh!?) ~ big surprise, totally creative, just GAE: Genius as Ever! : ) Love, Mel.

[@qmelodia]

(and forgive me while I still am trying to sync (testing) my googles) xo

[@NoahFriedman]

As much as I enjoy yours, it's very difficult to listen to this song without having Gene Wilder and Peter Boyle's rendition going through my head.

[@1MoreAsian]

The background song when you announced the tour locations. Is that another future song? Cuz dat beat waz phat.

[@LilDeuceDeuce]

I love the dead, slightly out of tune piano...makes me want to dust off my old piano and start playing it more rather than always using virtual instruments

[@BinkzisntHere]

LilDeuceDeuce Todd! What a pleasure seeing you here!

[@mwm48]

This is my favorite Pomplamoose video ever. I come back and rewatch from time.

[@mwm48]

Back again

[@clownguy9982]

@@mwm48 Lmaooo 😂 same tho

[@hardotyler6415]

This is by far my favorite song at the moment. The music video is also outstanding. I catch myself watching it instead of getting work done.

[@SexualPotatoes]

One of the coolest covers ever. Love how you made it your own and the whole creepy vibe (:

[@palomequea6837]

Omg XD i love your username

[@joanafernandes2357]

Woooww Cool

[@WilliamJakespeareProps]

that was both beautiful and horrifying. I love it!

[@iwo1621]

The most beautiful thing about your videos is that you enjoy it yourself and you can tell that as a spectator. you are real entertainers !!! Das schönste an euren Videos ist, dass ihr selbst daran Spaß habt und das merkt man als Zuschauer. Ihr seit echte Unterhalter!!!

[@GraemeMcRae]

It's been said [citation needed] that we have the music video industry to thank for the large audience for avante garde short films. Well, here's a case in point. Pomplamoose is endlessly creative!

[@brianwoodworth6699]

Started looking up Irving Berlin and can across this. I dig it

[@HadrianMcQuaig]

This is how you do a cover! Fantastic imagery and musical reinvention. This is Johnny-Cash-on-Nine-Inch-Nails-level goodness right here.

[@CraftingWithJeff]

Good night, is that is a trip! Love it!

[@higginsmmc]

This is my first time hearing your songs but I got to say, both of you guys are so talented. Definitely got a new fan!

[@Pomplamoose]

Hooray!!! Everyone welcome the new fan!!!

[@Floof_Boof]

+higginsmmc Yay, wilkommen! :D

[@ragwizard]

Love your stuff and how you take old songs and make them your own. It's almost mystical.

[@VernonJLawrence]

I recall the crowd funding years ago and thinking 'there's a winner.' Congrats. to both of you.

[@McCoyCantwell]

I believe Jack's cotton ball-face costume is going to give me nightmares for the next ever

[@jazzanarchy1342]

I will never sleep again. I love this.

[@Herobuilder21]

Oh wow, for once a good cover of puttin' on the ritz! thank you

[@kierondec]

This is awesome. I love the weirdness of the video.

[@woodstoney]

Glad to see you guys have done so well over the years since your "humble" beginnings! Loved the surreal effect of the video. Wacky, weird, way-out and wondermus!! We expect nothing less! All the best!!

[@Pomplamoose]

Thanks so much!

[@jackvanchimpe]

This is my new favorite Pomplamoose video. Fuck spell check. Pomplamoose is a word.

[@GaragebandandBeyond]

WTF !!!! YOU GUYS!!! It's soooo great !! The mix is soooo good Jack! Blasted it in my studio and yeah... awesome. The video is freaking "off the hook" you two! Sooooo fun to watch! Love it! See you when you get to Philly!

[@Pomplamoose]

YES!!! Thanks!! I've been working SO HARD on mixing over the last 2 years. Glad you dig. This one has just a LITTLE bit of sidechain compression on the bass - makes the drums feel bigger. I've been digging subtle sidechain compression recently - not HUGE PUMPY French house style sidechaining, just subtle ducking for the drums to slam like a boomer

[@GaragebandandBeyond]

PomplamooseMusic Interesting... I'm definitely going to try that. The bass is pumping, but still has a natural feeling to it, it's nice. Any particular plugin working a lot in the mix?

[@TronicJohn]

Levi Betz I guess he compresses the bass with a sidechain from the drums

[@jamesallen74]

Love your rendition of this song. ESPECIALLY the first 30 seconds, with that barbershop quartet sound. BEAUTIFUL!!!

[@larryseyer]

This is one STRANGE video!

[@mloftin6472]

I just love it. Just brilliant.

[@PoppaBlue59]

Great show! Reminds me of a carnival I went to in West Germany, in a highly altered state. But that was a cold war ago, and I was young and given over to wickedness. Now I'm wicked, and given over to oldness. Prrrrut Cheeee! Keep up the great music! Cheers from Texas!

[@Jackconte]

Conte fans: if you like getting weird, please watch my new video with Pomplamoose. Then take a long shower, and try to forget you ever saw it.

[@JasonLoeffler]

I thought the cover stood its ground very affirmatively without the video. But the video added another great dimension and I hope they keep them coming. Looking forward to the tour.

[@Redclantube]

I saw this video then bought a ticket to Minneapolis to see them in concert. Worth every penny.

[@Jeffrywith1e]

fantastic!

[@Furisu212]

That, all of it, blew me away! Holy crap.

[@Guysm1l3y]

Jack's head on a platter. Freaking great video and incredible audio production, all crisp and thumpy at the same time.

[@HunterRichardson]

"Excuse me, waiter? Yes, my salad has a... beard." #thingsIHaveNeverSaidBefore

[@BillyGates1721]

ingenious quotation of the selfconscious PIG in the restaurant at the end of the universe (Hitchhiker's guide through the galaxy)

[@EmilyKateification]

This might be the best piece of art you two have ever put together.

[@MT-bi9qi]

When life throws you lemon in 2020, put it on the Ritz.

[@陳念-x2t]

I'm kind of obsessed with this; great cinematography, amazing voice, and stellar music---amazing take on 'putting on the ritz'

[@shessomickey]

I thought the title was "Putin on the Ritz," and got really excited to watch a parody video of Vladimir Putin at a beachside resort.

[@Master_Therion]

With no shirt, of course ;)

[@lpclassic60]

And best comment of the day goes to...

[@mrgoldie109]

Funnyyyy!!!

[@saoirseraboteau7323]

Your comment is EVERYTHING!!! Fabulous, darling, fabulous!!!!

[@etoyoshimura4824]

Omg has it really been 2 years since I last listened to this art?!?

[@Baba_Ghanoush]

well, i'll never be able to eat salad again...ever! this was disturbing, haunting, and a tad freaky, but I watched it 6 times! luv it! ;)

[@APerson-ri8tl]

(😂😂

[@sammylaporte4736]

I really love this!! especially how you captured that change of vibe when she passed out! very clever!

[@NikaNet100]

Дорогие мои Помпламузе! Вы великолепны! Неподражаемы! Всего Вам доброго!

[@TheChazzmander]

Oh my gosh, this music video is so perfect! I love the spin on a classic old Hollywood song as well as the Tim Burtonesque paradigm change from 50's housewife chic to otherwordly amazingness!

[@theimacman]

I have a phobia where any time I see someone cutting things with knives, I'm sure they are going to cut themselves. That gave the intro to this video a tension you probably did not intend. heh

[@jstringer4900]

Killer Irving Berlin song. Great arrangement, singing and musicianship. Thank you!

[@RJTheBikeGuy]

Well that was weird.

[@GerardPalmeri]

LOVED the creepiness! Nice job, N & J!

[@Kompy__]

this made a lot more sense when I was tripping..

[@MrMKH2010]

Thank you for booking a show in St. Louis. My wife and I will be there.

[@Pomplamoose]

YAY!!!

[@danielbijan]

Wow, that is super creative, keep it up. I really enjoy true musicians. I'm trying to teach my 5 year old son music and he's doing great so far. He's learning drums, piano and guitar and he's picking things up quick. Hopefully one day he'll be where you guys are now. It would be great if a few people can watch his latest video called "It's time to party", that would be totally awesome

[@letters_from_paradise]

Hiding a self-promotion in a compliment really doesn't go as seamlessly as I think you think it did.

[@tommycastro9424]

she has a voice that is perfect for these types of songs the classics :x

[@Jespertheend2]

Hey, great video! Can you cover "the scatman" from "Scatman John" that would be highly appreciated :)

[@DeRose05]

YES!!

[@bostonseeker]

Amazing what Pomp can do with a song nearly a century old.

[@bhaskban]

When life gives you lemons, squirt someone in the eye. :)

[@elspoko]

See guys? This is great. The feel of the music is all class. The voice, the piano, all of it fits the song. Nothing in the James Brown cover fit.

[@polosatus]

Новое видео от Pomplamoose. Звук в духе того самого старого доброго Pomplamoose, а вот видеоряд может смутить. Я предупредил.

[@Алена-ч2р8й]

Хотела скачать себе это видео. Понравилось исполнение. С ютуба что уже не дают скачать?

[@solutioncrm4567]

Женщина на кухне, нормальный видео ряд

[@polosatus]

Аяз Афлятунов Ну там в комментариях кто-то счёл disturbing вид говорящей головы в салате. Ну и другие моменты. Алена Назарчук Да вроде как ютуб никогда этого и не разрешал делать - см. условия использования, п. 9.1. В описании видео есть ссылка на айтюнс, где можно купить песню.

[@Алена-ч2р8й]

А мне раньше показывали, как подставить 2 буквы ss перед ссылкой и можно было скачивать. Получается это было не законно? Спасибо буду знать. Я и не скачивала в принципе. Просто знала об этом. Ну теперь буду знать, что это не правильно.

[@mtvk82]

Алена Назарчук На айТюнс 99 центов за песню просят, так что скачивать не совсем честно... но все же возможно...

[@TessieTee]

Pomplamoose I adore you. I adore this song. I adore this video.

[@YouTubeCatEngineer]

Your videos are as weird as your music is brilliant. I should know. I make weird videos. Your videos are also brilliant. So is your music.

[@tomellerman2742]

easily my favorite cover. the synth just takes it so many places.

[@BeadleBelfry]

Is this what being on shrooms feels like?

[@gertiebert]

Nope.

[@oatsinthewaves]

Love this! The singing salad is my personal favourite.

[@Pomplamoose]

We call him Salad Face. He loves staring at you while you eat him. Not a great dinner companion.

[@cousinletsgobowling1]

1 word that describes this video: Weed.

[@higginsmmc]

1 word that better describes this video: Lsd...

[@johngordon5495]

higginsmmc and yet another tops it all off... Pork !

[@cmiltoncampbell]

I accidentally stumbled across you guys while searching for instructions on how to use a neti pot. I'm an instant fan! What a day! I found a new band and discovered how to clear my sinuses all in an afternoon's work.

[@thatdapperfellow]

That's a cute swimsuit.

[@jodyritz2706]

love this song for an obvious reason. great version!!!!

[@Jeffrywith1e]

wow, they're messing around with some WTF

[@spockboy]

Truly creative people always do :)

[@LikeSTokio]

That was awesome! And those eyes... hypnotizing and so absolutely beautiful. Talking about the nostrils salad eyes, of course!

[@SunnyBear]

I love you guys but I don't think the bikini-shot and the undressing was necessary… You are talented enough not to fall back on sexualisation.

[@johngordon5495]

I disagree, removes a little of her inate, yet unintended prudishness.

[@SunnyBear]

The Craziest Redd Horny doesn't come in to it, I just think it was contextually superfluous. It would have made more sense if Jack was also in swimming trunks or similar. I think sexualized images of the female body when the male counterpart is fully dressed spreads a troubled collective message to young girls. I am not against nudity but I think this discussion is important and that we should be careful with commercializing and in extension normalizing a view on women as being nothing more than eye-candy for men.

[@wobblism]

FavouriteAnton Next video.... "I'm in the mood for love" with Jack in a set of speedos... just to even things up...

[@SunnyBear]

wobblism haha, I'm *_so_* up for that!

[@SaundersBenevolus]

That little bit was like 4 seconds long. WTF is wrong with you?

[@lighthouseenglishcentre5270]

Awesome cover!!! Enjoying it!!! Thank you a lot for doing this work!

[@Thumper17]

Where is all this sexualization coming from? Very unlike you guys.

[@quatrodraws4017]

First I want to verbalize how much I respect you guys for using the real lyrics by Irving Berlin that not many others use who cover this song. Second I'd love an existential interpretation from some smarty pants on this video, I love those.

[@mudhens4ever]

Clever, musical, and lots of fun!

[@blueflame2324]

I truly enjoyed the dark undertones of this song. The song has always been fun to me and just seeing it done with such an amazingly evil feel just made me smile inside and out.

[@RememberTheTrees]

I can't stop grinning. You guys are awesome.

[@DeanFriedmanMusic]

Brilliant, as always!

[@lucasxdfernandes]

So wonderful!!! I wish I lived in the US just to watch your concerts, I'm a big fan! Greetings from the Amazon, Brazil! :)

[@kylenethersole]

Great take on a standard! Love the bass movement under the Dm...you guys never fail to impress. Can't wait for the rest of Season 2!

[@Jackconte]

ALRIGHT!! I love comments like this. We spent such a long time on the arrangement, voice leading and harmony. nice to hear you're listening closely. glad you dig the bass movement - that's all nataly!

[@kylenethersole]

Jack Conte Super tasteful arrangement, in my opinion! Kept (mostly) the original harmony but added your own style. You guys rock!!

[@phyphorous]

You guys are just getting better, and better. This is just amazing. This reminds me of the good times back in the days when people actually used their brain, and cared about their music more than popular opinions, or money. If I win the lottery, I will make sure to send you guys a post card. haha

[@carterstaley]

One of my favorite videos in a long time.

[@DavidUngerMusic]

I am so glad you guys are back! See you in SF!

[@TakeWalker]

This is one of the most surreal things I've ever seen and I love it.

[@Pomplamoose]

My favorite surrealist is Jan Švankmajer. Do you know his work?!?! incredible animation and bizarre films...

[@TakeWalker]

I am checking him out on KZbin right now! ...What in the everliving crap. c.c Well, "Dimensions of Dialogue" was pretty interesting at least...

[@arekkusu2006]

This is in serious contention for my favorite Pomplamoose encounter. I love how many styles you guys play with.

[@mauriceparker9689]

This song is well within your range as artists. You two have done an excellent job making this cover better than the original. 10/10.

[@clbt4celluloid]

I've long been a fan of your works. Your film making style is as fresh and vibrant as your music. I am overjoyed to find that you are coming to Chicago. We shall claw and scratch, or perhaps scratch and sniff, to be there.

[@monsieurPessoa]

Your videos are more and more creative, and your job is awesome ! Congratz !

[@Pomplamoose]

YAY! thank you!

[@TrueDeva]

Favourite song from season 2 so far! Pomplamoose is back!

[@annejesdition2349]
