Can you guys please bring back the van cover magic of the early 2010’s to the dystopian 2020s? I think a lot of people would thoroughly appreciate it in these fraught times.

[@brianjz]

I keep coming back to these covers in the van on the road. I would buy an album of just these van covers. Great energy, great talent!

[@JeffFreemanPresents]

The car thing is brilliant. I'm filled with every image of those passing views out the window when I was a kid. Best road trip ever.

[@tylerharris6581]

Nikki your voice gives me goosebumps every time i absolutely love you❤

[@UniqueNicole]

Amazing! Her voice is really attractive

[@bryanalcock9264]

Every Nicki plus the Gramblers car session makes my soul smile so wide, and that feeling is few and far between for me so danke schoen.

[@thetractorlegacy7477]

Beautiful

[@smujushi]

I'm not sure if it's the bouncy tempo, the background noise, the raspy quality in the vocals, the on-point music, or even just the stayed exuberance but I can't get enough of this song. I'd love to see this song on the next "Nicki Bluhm and The Gramblers" album. Definitely one of the better covers in this channel and across KZbin. Unique, simple, and entertaining!

[@crazybill2128]

A great tribute to Whitney. Love it..

[@pascalmerschaudio]

orginal written by boy meet girl....only for info :)

[@razrv3lc]

THIS IS AMAZING. This is, by far, the best cover of this song. The rest of them lost the energy (even if they stayed in the original key and hit all of the notes) but this cover kept that energy and kept the song FUN.

[@zachford2616]

I like how they didn’t overdo it

[@speedmatters]

Flippin' fantastic. As ever.

[@DrummerDanVa]

There are videos on KZbin recorded in a studio that don't show this much talent.

[@pascalmerschaudio]

Absolutly great musicians ......nice to see real musicians on 2016

[@richardgum8784]

SuperPasquale76 You hit the nail right on the head there....Real Musicians👍☺

[@pascalmerschaudio]

[@DJaySplitSecond]

VH1 needs to give these guys thier own show!!!

[@DJTANKBOY676]

[@BrianODowd1]

MY FAVORITE Whitney song!!! Love it!!

[@sixStringsforWords]

So good! And her voice is something special, has a sweetness to it

[@jthale481]

you guys rock!

[@user-us4dj9tv7j]

Love it when the guys say "dance" They look like their having fun.

[@nicksparkle]

Fantastic!

[@Art.Magick]

I can't believe I'm just now finding you guys. You're all like a comet of creativity streaking across the earth in the form of a van. This is better than anything corporate media or Hollywood can ever produce. Thanks for the positive energy. I used to hate this song lol.

[@matthewagent86]

I need more! Haha these van sessions are great!

[@B1rdTheW0rd]

I love her voice.

[@trirycheman]

Very nice!

[@guydelaqua940]

The dude with the "straw piano"? Is the best. She sings beautiful, she's beautiful, but if you can give it that much. Awesome.

[@zumaznracer]

Love your version guys. More Van Sessions!

[@PicklePwr]

Talk about distracted driving. lmao I never get tired of saying it. At 52 I have seen every band From Elton and Led too Neil Diamond. I waited for four years before Nicki Blhum and the Gramblers came too Minneapolis. I got to tell you best band ever! I bought 6 tickets and dragged five friends too the show. lol when it was all over the band had five new fans. lol

That is an awesome music! I play some music here on youtube too, and this is the first time I see your channel, but I am sure I will come back here many times! You are awesome!

[@chapstickrickreads]

Love your voice

[@LapisLauri]

You guys never cease to amaze me ;)

[@JKFlaker]

Don't think I've heard the original song but I like this one. Keep Em coming NB&G's !!!

[@mightydubkat]

Love these van sessions :)

[@MrPanetela]

if I only knew a song I would sing it til I was gone the echos slowly fading if I was made of only water I would be soft like melting butter spreading warmth all along the way but all I have is me and all that I can be is just being human every day wishing you all another successful tour...

[@MrBoblangan]

awesome

[@oliver7763]

This is awesome. I wish Nicki and Tim were back together 😢

[@froggylegspeople]

Yes, ……. 🍀

[@JKFlaker]

Oh I know this song now. By the way who's hiding in the very back of the van? Thanks again NB&G's ! Just please don't go so long between van sessions again. Still cherishing my NB&G's autographed guitar!!

Hey Nicki and Tim you guys sounded great at the Giants play off game at AT&T park

[@camilleschilling7826]

they were there?!!! which day?

[@sherwoodetc]

***** They did the national anthem before Game 5 on Thursday. If you go to the Giants' website, pull up a game highlight, and select the tag "More From This Game," you can find video of it.

[@bighousegroove]

Big Six it's also here on You Tube now... just search Nicki Bluhm National Anthem

[@scratchgolf]

huge fan!

[@emmetlyons5299]

WOOP Woop!

[@mateusemiranda]

Your videos are so fun :)

[@MattsBaseballWorld]

This is some classic stuff in the making. Tempted to fill their van up to take a few more sets.

[@thedayjob]

This song always makes me wish I was listening to Girls Just Wanna Have Fun instead. Request!

[@vwlssnvwls3262]

I did not know the Knights That Say Ni did songs, but this one says "Cover by Ni" :D LOL!! :P

[@haminhamo5620]

[@jackstraw262]

DANCE

[@andrewclark6895]

The tone of the guitar reminds me of Ellen McIlwaine's cover of Higher Ground. You should do that next! :-)

[@jayswillneverwinever8885]

Is it just me or is there a guy hanging on to the outside of the van in the back.lmao dedicated fan perhaps?

[@paullawson2830]

What happened to the big dude in the back seat behind her (I think her husband) in the Hall and Oates video "I can't go for that"?

[@amihan99]

Why no new videos?

[@vickilee7494]

Sounds like one of my family road trips...

[@phillipsmith7299]

I love you guys so wanna road trip with you.

[@AVibeSupreme]

Go Chiefs!!

[@michaelscalia1437]

Playing tonight 9 yrs later

[@barefootpastor]

Maybe because I watched Whitney on MTV and I am old, this was good, but it just did not have it like some of her other covers.

[@CalumRhysJones]

16 people are jealous af.

[@Eiseuu]

Thats how I feed my eel

[@elitagge]

If you guys cover "Skinny Love" by Bon Iver in your van I will literally be your slave.

[@MrBzzk]

This needs more attention.

[@saulmcguire3551]

second this!

[@MrDanielismyname]

Daryl & Rick Grimes? :O

[@JeffKirbylogix]

I thought you had a bus now?

[@DerenNey]

We use both depending on what the schedule is. The was our first van trip in a while and we couldn't resist!

[@JeffKirbylogix]

Deren Ney I'm glad to hear that Van Sessions in a van are still a possibility, then. You all have come up with something special that just doesn't seem to be replicated any other way by anyone else in any other place. Thank you!

[@betsiamites1]

Jeff Kirby There's something very wistful and timeless about seeing other vehicles (e.g. around 3:50) and realize they're people just living their lives, completely unaware that they're in a video, and if someone watches this 50 years from now, these people will still be captured in time.

[@DeafEskimo]

You guys really need a dog to take with you on the trips. Something like a Labrador that will be obedient so it won't get in the way and it could just sit there in the background being cute. Only possible negative side could be if it doesn't like the noise, but that means you could then buy it some ear-muffs or whatever and it will be even cuter. You really need to get a dog.

[@robinhill3704]

But they've already got Deren!:)

[@tamarahhill1670]

Just kidding, dude!:)

[@katherinemilne3757]

You guys can copy it but nobody is as good as Whitney was 💗

[@inthestars5109]

This easily matches Whitney

[@katherinemilne3757]

yea you wish
