[@rrocktoo]

Those organ sounds are everywhere they need to be and in places easily taken for granted. The band is tight and topped off with that smooth vocal delivery. Lovely!

[@ewhite1546]

Would like to see more David Ryan Harris!

[@shpwny2150]

exactly

[@pablopardo8010]

Me too. Just discovered him!

[@pappabearlee8938]

This

[@markwilson9652]

Yes

[@pedroguidatv]

"Yesterday Shutting Down"

[@chicagospots]

I love how David bends the note out of range for a moment at 1:25

[@PicklePaint]

that's skill

[@th3g3rmb0y]

Good lord, that organist nails every note - just sensational!

[@ricliu4538]

Once of best voices..you just anticipate but get blown away

[@marcusnielsen9674]

David Ryan Harris is an absolute legend. I can only recommend his live performance of 'Yesterday Shutting Down' with John Mayer and a whole array of other phenomenal musicians. Love this as well - obviously.

[@ElDudew]

OMG the pre-chorus is so good now. Gave me chills!! "I don't know if I could ever go without" sounds so much smoother!!!! LOVED THIS COVER!

[@annaspitz6449]

His voice is so warm wow, this version is different and great 😁

[@JohnDeanMusic]

DRH Is one of my favorite songwriters...loved when he was John Mayer, first heard him from the movie 'Biker Boyz' he has a beautiful song called 'Don't look down' also another good song is "For you", I learned some of his music, such a gifted artist!! He's so good live. Dude rips a guitar as well!

[@rjmari]

Those are 2 of my favs from him.

[@theajbible]

For You is so good

[@derbasti1987]

DRH is such a fantastic singer/songwriter. His voice is the cure we all need these days. Thx guys (again) for this incredible piece of music and keep up this awesome and inspiring work.

[@chrishooker912]

Gospel

[@toniwonkanobi]

Have you ever noticed how at any given time, JM is touring with mostly black people? So legit. Pino is white, but is basically black on the inside.

[@toniwonkanobi]

Also, this is some random JM trivia for you: I think DRH is wearing a 16610 Rolex given to him by John Mayer. I think this because Sean Hurley did an interview years ago wherein he talked about how John gave everyone in the band a Rolex (and the 16610 was [is still] *the* quintessential Neo-vintage Rolex to have). I assume a lot. But I don't think I am wrong.

[@markwilson9652]

Yes, beautiful vocalist

[@chrishooker912]

@@toniwonkanobi pino has his b card, for sure.

[@francescomordacci7150]

I so needed to hear a solo on this cover. This arrangement is INSANE, definitely in my top 3 scary pockets songs !

[@michamewho8642]

What a freakin' amazing drums! Big respect for all the broken rythms !

[@SenatorPhoenix]

Love the funky drumming too!

[@alexisjordan5144]

Queen Nicole Row slaying again with that bass 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@orpheos9]

Definitely. Bass really holding it down on this version

[@jlhowland24]

She’s become my fav SP bassist!

[@andrewboyce4495]

She's so slick - love it

[@gerimayawhyte154]

I have only seen her talking to the guys of SP about music and never heard her play. Damn, her playing is pretty amazing. Her pocket, phrasing, and anticipation with the rests is pretty dope. This is a great performance by everyone for sure but a few bars in I was like "who is playing bass?"

[@OmarVale]

finally a Watermelon Sugar cover that's even better than the original

[@simonrano8072]

To be "even better", the orginial has to be good at least, nothing from Harry Styles never was any good.

[@pandadoublexl]

[@imanrachman9044]

please respect the original singer

[@obhmusic]

David is the real deal. From his quick videos recorded on his iPhone, to live in LA with John Mayer. I.LOVE.HIM.

[@liekkilada]

Kudos to the recording engineers - this sounds awesome.

[@lonniemo]

Master's Class in EVERY part! Love DRH!! Incredible, and the falsetto!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE

[@Langharig_Tuig]

Hot damn! This might be the smoothest voice I have ever heard. Especially the chorus... just... how can a man do that?

[@AaronFitzgerald]

There's some blues in that voice! So much feeling. Lerman and Conte tight as always

[@orpheos9]

DRH is awesome. I found him through John Mayer in college. This is bringing me back to listening to "Yesterday shutting down" on repeat

[@juliablizin8885]

Damn man. This is just fine. Tight and pleasing. Scary Pockets Rides Again!! LOVE this sound and that drumming is perfection. David Ryan Harris needs to be on more Scary Pockets songs please, Ryan and Jack.

[@iansullivan9738]

It's not often a cover of a song far surpasses the original, and y'all have done that several times over with this one. Great Job!

[@maxxranchero634]

Always great to see Mr Goldings collab with Scary Pockets!!

[@PeteLamont]

Lemar's face at 2:28, just catches how good all of the performances are with this one!

[@karlittopouzet5842]

This Man has so much groove and class when he sings!

[@reifusvazk4594]

impresionante el bateria

[@redkryptonite6]

Crazy groove and feel. Was really hoping you guys would cover this.🙌

[@falstaff80]

This cover is so textured and wonderful. I love it so much.

[@ruchitakanpillewar3772]

Even though the original song has gone viral on social media, the only time I've voluntarily listened to it is in this version. And I've heard it so many times that this is the original song for me now. ✅

[@KitanaSamoa]

Same sentiment!

[@TheAnonymousMango]

You can’t reduce to a No.1 song being a viral social media song, since it chartered at #1 way before it went viral online.

[@rafaesan1]

David Ryan Harris is such a fantastic singer and Scary Pockets great band! Congrats.

[@horiasantorini8744]

maaan, I`m lovin` it...... such a harmony between all.... I could listen to it for hours on repeat

[@melaniedejonge5234]

OMG, DRH is the absolute best. This song is going to be in heavy, heavy rotation on my personal playlist for the foreseeable future.

[@TheSineAssociation]

What a great singer, beautiful voice... Davis Ryan Harris

[@JacobMcCaslin]

David is just absolutely crushing air percussion 🥁

[@melsea3901]

This georgious voice leaves me with a big smile! Thank you 😘

[@sisanaviveiros8520]

This is a masterpiece,with a few twists from Harry's original.,beautiful cover!!!

[@chrisbr1969]

David Ryan Harris is just awesome! I’ve followed him his whole career. The guy should be huge!

[@David_Thompson]

Somehow missed this when it came out - outstanding!

[@mjp23]

The vocals are 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@FatMattOutdoors]

This guy sounds like Luther Vandross and Terence Trent D'arby smashed together! ❤️

[@swamp_donkey]

Fantastic singer but sounds nothing like LVD?

[@WTFENIGMA]

You must be deaf

[@nadia3mar]

0:51 i hear TTD, too 🙌🏽

[@swamp_donkey]

@@WTFENIGMA What!? He sounds completely different to him, you're the deaf one my fellow keyboard warrior

[@FatMattOutdoors]

@@WTFENIGMA you must not know TTD

[@MyRapNameIsAlexbitsnpieces]

In addition to being able to take songs I'm indifferent about and making me love them... I now discover Scary Pockets can do that to songs I already like.

[@yvonnewheeler6230]

Just love love love this version of the song and his voice is so cool and smooth amazing ❤🎶❤🎶❤🎶

[@joannewootton8328]

What a great voice this man has got 👍

Too many talents in one video. Holy shit guys.

[@xseaangelx]

Woooo! This is awesome! Thanks for sharing.

[@chadtoogs]

DRH IS A LEGEND!! THIS IS A COMBO I DIDNT EXPECT TO SEE

[@Bobby_Digital37]

DRH killed it!!! That’s how you cover a song!!! 💯💯😎

[@nataliaoliva8211]

AY POR DIOS, es lo mejor que escuché en lo que va del 2021 😍

[@Howl_3DN]

Nicole has fast become a favorite of mine to see and hear on a SP. Dang she killed it and I can’t not mention David did too on vocals.

[@julienrocks7051]

Excellent work as always. Huge thanks for healing the world with your music !

[@panagiotisntellis557]

Just amazing!!!!

[@irisloar3781]

DRH’s approach is clean !!! Great stuff guys !

Wow what an awesome cover performance of this great song! I hope you guys do more together. Great job!👏🏽👌🏽👍🏽

[@clifflucas22]

Just wow.

[@fabianespinoza]

David Ryan Harris , AMAZING!! 💎💎 Legend!

[@franzs8919]

That beat is so refreshing... He could have just played 2+4 but instead he choose to give the song a whole new feeling :)

[@student22044]

David’s voice is so silky smooth! ❤️

[@iansullivan8955]

Caught DRH live on a side stage when JM toured with Sheryl Crow in 2006. I remember buying his CD at the merch stand alongside "TRY!" which had just come out. Spent half my life singing those songs and I'm absolutely LOVING seeing DRH get some more exposure via Scary Pockets.

[@bikamusic1263]

👍 great feeling and very nice arrangement

[@beckym8245]

Love this. I'm really focused on the drumming - just amazing. Love that voice.

[@lady9580]

HS would be proud - this really ROCKS ❤️

[@brtshmvne]

Been a DRH fan since "If I Had a Dime" days... I still have his business card I got from him back in 2007. He's a good dude and a great musician. Looking forward to more music from him.

[@nquina2520]

What a beautiful Voice he got! 😍

[@roylv40]

Just Wow! So much talent. Wonderfully executed!

[@dalejones4322]

Great sound. Any new scary Goldings music in the works? Oh, and I think Larry should be on your new channel. I'd say he's forgotten more about music than most will ever know.

[@conradwinardo4411]

I like the room lighting..

[@musitronicstudio]

Amazing singer ! And musician too of course :) Every time youtube bring that song up, I stop what I do to listen :)

[@cyberleotrim]

definitely the best Cover and Top 3 videos from Scary Pockets

Such gentle gestures and a float-like voice ~♡

Hoping to hear this in Atlanta!!

[@陈瑞娜]

Right now, there are people all over the world who are just like you. They're either lonely, they're missing somebody, they're depressed, they're hurt, they're scarred from the past, they're having personal issues no one knows about, they have secrets you wouldn't believe. They wish, they dream and they hope. And right now, they are sitting here reading these words, and I'm writing this for you so you dont feel alone anymore. Always remember, don't be depressed about the past, don't worry about the future, and just focus on today. If today's not so great don't worry! Tomorrow's a new chance. If you are reading this, be sure to share this around to make others feel better. Have a nice day! :)💖💖 -Chilled Cow, from some lofi's comment section

[@musitronicstudio]

I'm still amazed by this cover

[@pigasus2794]

Somehow, youtube algorithm showed me Harry Style "Watermelon Sugar" live on NPR Tiny Desk... and I needed to go back here because... that's the definitive song for me now.

[@14ericksona]

That drum groove is insane. Absolutely nasty

[@salmon1s]

I'm finally able to listen to this song without having the urge to destroy the device blasting this sewage water soup... Great take on a disturbingly bad "hit"

[@laosvegas7494]

love the drummer and the dudes voice man, killer job

[@isabellelampert5463]

Love the groove!! Keep it up guys x

[@MegaDeMasi]

I keep coming back to thissssssss
