  • LA-based duo Electric Guest are inspired by classic 70's songwriting with a nod to nostalgic soul. Danger Mouse lent his magical touch to their full-length debut and we catch up with them when they join Morning Becomes Eclectic.

    Personally, I like the way he moves when he's singing.. you can tell how totally immersed he is into the beat while performing I am SO here for it

      I think vocal coaches teach you that so the singing becomes easier. Though, most singers don't do it alot when they're live.

      I agree, but it also kinda looks like he's trying to play some non-existent instrument, which is kinda funny

    • @subs4794
      @subs4794 10 месяцев назад

      WDYM? He's not singing the studio version. He's singing the high parts an octave lower and it sounds "bad for me". I hope he doesn't do this usually with live performances, otherwise what's the point of faking with studio plugins?

    TROUBLEMAN
    She was young once
    Girl of the bohemian kind
    In the cold bright dawn
    We watched her grow
    Wisdom had begun
    Season when the water was high
    On the grey stone lawn I walked alone
    Me and my heart following the shadow she made
    Like a dull sky day I chased the sun
    Back at the start I was still in love with the way
    It's a long long way from what's become
    She's got it bad for me
    She's got it bad for me
    The only game she plays now turn the other way
    She's got it bad for me
    She's got it bad for me
    The only game she played she played
    Newly grown-up
    Folded up the colors she wore
    See the all new girl
    All rehearsed and well
    Filling my cup
    Playing at the edge of the shore
    See the way she moves
    I broke the spell
    She's got it bad for me
    She's got it bad for me
    The only game plays now turn the other way
    She's got it bad for me
    She's got it bad for me
    The only game she played she played
    Oh no
    Try to fix it before you break it
    Then it's gone
    Oh no i go on i go on
    She's got it bad for me
    She's got it bad for me
    The only game she played now turn the other way
    She's got it bad for me
    She's got it bad for me
    The only game she played she played
    Troubleman
    You wished it all away
    Gun in hand
    You found a path today
    And i know nothing about
    Troubleman
    Your faithful
    Foreign land
    The sea was made of stone
    And i know nothing about
    He's gotten bad for me
    He's gotten bad for me
    The only game he played now turn the other way
    He's gotten bad for me
    He's gotten bad for me
    The only game he played he played
    Troubleman
    We used to shade the dead
    Ship unmanned
    The rain was just ahead
    And i know nothing about
    Where troubleman
    Is just an empty name
    Oh no
    Try to fix it before you break it
    Oh no
    You go on
    We go on

    Ela já foi jovem
    She was young once
    Garota do tipo boêmio
    Girl of the bohemian kind
    No amanhecer frio e brilhante
    In the cold bright dawn
    Nós a vimos crescer
    We watched her grow
    A sabedoria tinha começado
    Wisdom had begun
    Temporada em que a água estava alta
    Season when the water was high
    No gramado de pedra cinza, eu caminhei sozinho
    On the grey stone lawn I walked alone
    Eu e meu coração seguindo a sombra que ela fez
    Me and my heart following the shadow she made
    Como um dia de céu escuro, eu persegui o sol
    Like a dull sky day I chased the sun
    No começo eu ainda estava apaixonado pelo jeito
    Back at the start I was still in love with the way
    É um longo caminho desde o que se tornou
    It's a long long way from what's become
    Ela tem isso ruim para mim
    She's got it bad for me
    Ela tem isso ruim para mim
    She's got it bad for me
    O único jogo que ela joga agora é o contrário
    The only game she plays now turn the other way

    Ela tem isso ruim para mim
    She's got it bad for me
    O único jogo que ela jogou ela jogou
    The only game she played she played
    Recém-adulto
    Newly grown-up
    Dobrou as cores que ela usava
    Folded up the colors she wore
    Veja a nova garota
    See the all new girl
    Tudo ensaiado e bem
    All rehearsed and well
    Enchendo meu copo
    Filling my cup
    Brincando na beira da costa
    Playing at the edge of the shore
    Veja como ela se move
    See the way she moves
    Quebrei o feitiço
    I broke the spell
    Ela tem isso ruim para mim
    She's got it bad for me
    Ela tem isso ruim para mim
    She's got it bad for me

    Você desejou que tudo desaparecesse
    You wished it all away

    I miss the acoustic guitar part here. Don't think I ever loved the same notes played repetatively as on an original, anywhere. But the whole song is just gorgeous and mesmerizing. Still an awesome performance here and love his voice. They all nailed it. What an underrated song and band.
