- Due to this song’s most excellent resurgence on TikTok, we had to pay tribute to the great Mika! Also just couldn’t pass up the opportunity to work with our saxophonist friend, Grace Kelly on it. Win, win.

LYRICS
Do I attract you?
Do I repulse you with my queasy smile?
Am I too dirty? Am I too flirty?
Do I like what you like?
I could be wholesome, I could be loathsome
I guess I'm a little bit shy
Why don't you like me, why don't you like me
Without making me try?
I tried to be like Grace Kelly
But all her looks were too sad
So I tried a little Freddie
I've gone identity mad!
I could be brown, I could be blue
I could be violet sky
I could be hurtful, could be purple
I could be anything you like
Gotta be green, gotta be mean
Gotta be everything more
Why don't you like me? Don't you like me?
Walk out the door!
How can I help it, how can I help
How can I help what you think?
Hello my baby, hello my baby
Putting my life on the brink
Why don't you like me, why don't you like me
Why don't you like yourself?
Should I bend over? Should I look older
To be put on your shelf?
I tried to be like Grace Kelly
But all her looks were too sad
So I tried a little Freddie
I've gone identity mad!
I could be brown, I could be blue
I could be violet sky
Could be hurtful, could be purple
I could be anything you like
Gotta be green, gotta be mean
Gotta be everything more
Why don't you like me? Don't you like me?
Walk out the door!
I could be brown, I could be blue
I could be violet sky
I could be hurtful, could be purple
I could be anything you like
Gotta be green, gotta be mean
Gotta be everything more
Don't you like me? Don't you like me?
I could be brown, I could be blue
I could be violet sky
Could be hurtful, could be purple
I could be anything you like
Gotta be green, gotta be mean
Gotta be everything more
Why don't you like me? Don't you like me?
Walk out the door!

Grace Kelly ft. Grace Kelly. It’s just...almost too good to be true.
This song is just amazing! And with your voice its just.. perfection
Loving the sax!
I will add a comment here too. Liked it a lot. Do more of these collabs if possible. Thank you all.
Whaouuu! Y’a du monde , comme une sympathique réunion de famille🥰 on peut venir chanter avec vous??💛💛⭐️😻
That is the best-controlled soprano saxophone I've heard outside of the classical world. Usually that instrument tends towards the Sidney Bechet side of things - which, don't get me wrong, I like a lot, but it sounds less like a sax in a higher register than like an entity unto itself. Bravo. Oh, and the entire performance and arrangement was delightful as well.
Agreed! Her tone is amazing. Plus, she plays some nice fills without dominating the conversation.
@@djkmaine agree completely, but also, sometimes it's nice to dominate the conversation... ruclips.net/video/rv4wf7bzfFE/видео.html
I 100% agree, she is a phenomenal player! Choosing to play the curved soprano definitely factors into why it sounds so much like a saxophone though; the straight ones get this “Shawm” like tone that other straight reed instruments have that the saxophone doesn’t. Her pitch, articulation and control are what really deal the deal though!
Mmm, what about Branford Marsalis with Sting?
Look for "English Man in New York" or "Driven To Tears"
They are both on the same level.
Soprano sax players who do not make my ears bleed are a rare breed and Grace Kelley (as well as the ones mentioned below - also on my regular rotation list) are the exception rather than the rule. This recording is just wow. Maybe a little more ambience in the mix but the sax and the rest of the musicianship and Nataly's vocals are spot on. What these people show is possible is amazing - and I think I'm wearing out that word using it in connection with my comments on their stuff. As long as we are mentioning worthy soprano sax recordings: Dave Grusin's "There's A Boat Dat's Leavin' Soon For New York" from his album The Gershwin Connection.
Grace Kelly's sax work is so fluid and perfectly timed, yet so artful, natural and unforced...clearly the finest...
Man, 3:19 is so goddamn orgasmic. the sax player clearly know whats the shit
One of my favourite things about Pomplamoose is the faces on everyone playing: you can tell they know they're playing awesomely themselves, but also looking constantly amazed and impressed by their bandmates too!
Seriously one of the most amazing covers you've made! Fantastic ft, what a vibe in that studio!
Pomplamoose has done it again: Taken a song and given it their own spin that makes an every bit as fun as the original, yet almost completely different
This from an 88 year old guy; you guys are just wicked fantastic!!! I love the way you did this song!!
age makes no difference...actually, the older i find myself, the more musical "Experience" I have. This version isnt what a teenager would find attractive as, well, it takes years to learn to appreciate such artistry. You cannot learn it. God Bless Gene. TK
Age doesn’t dictate taste :-) salute you sir
I can beg to differ on that one, I'm only young and I have great musical taste (I hope) and I love this!
Mika does translate really well into Jazz. Kinda curious what a Pomplamoose cover of Big Girl (You Are Beautiful) would sound like.
Having a saxophone doesn't make this jazz
Grace Kelly rocks on the saxophone! Pomplamoose consistently features amazingly talented musicians!
She's also very good on the bass saxophone. Here's a sample: ruclips.net/video/tt6eqDv0cpI/видео.html
This time you outfunked the Pockets. Such bop!
Yes the bop is strong with this one. ( I confess I have no idea what that means) However, I do know what I like. 🥂
unbelievable how they compete themselves :3
@@robertjohnson1962 there is this other band that does funk covers called scary pockets, they make dope stuff
@@isaacarussi5822 I have heard them and they are amazing. I think we have similar tastes in cover bands. The talent in some of these groups is phenomenal. Enjoy!
@@robertjohnson1962 Jack Conte is a member of both bands, which might explain the similar styles. Ryan Lerman who is a leading member of Scary Pockets is also a frequent collaborator with Pomplamoose.
Wait, did I see Rai Thistlethwayte on keys? Seems he´s on everybody´s party from Oz Noy to Louis Cole and now Pomplamoose. Same with Grace Kelly. Playing with Adam Neely, The fearless flyers, Cory Wong and now in this constellation. Love it!
Literal chills when that chorus hits.
Awesome! Loved the Sax, and sax solo! Nothing like a sax solo. My all time favorite sax solos are from: save it for later, and sole salvation from the English beat. Grace Kelly's playing is some of the best, too! Not to mention all the wonderful artists the rest of you are!
Thanks for another great tune!
Grace Kelly making the rounds of all my favorite bands what the heck! Fearless Flyers, Cory Wong, Main Squeeze and now Pomplamoose!
At this rate she is gonna colab with Lake Street Dive and Vulfpeck. I'm calling it now
Since she did a cover with The 8-Bit Big Band last December she's constantly on my radar.
This is SO good... hard to believe it's really recorded live in a living room!! And the studio geek in me always gets excited when I hear an MD-441 in action. That mic sounds great on Nataly's voice.
This is an awesome song! I never cease to be amazed at the new dimensions of talent and enjoyment from your music. You and Jack always seem to pull beautiful rabbits out of your hat: The musicians, singers and talent you bring to us always blows me away. The sax was something I didn't fully anticipate; it had such a full and vibrant voice played by a truly talented artist. There's a plethora of reasons why Pomplamoose is my top patreon recipient!
This song is an absolute TRIUMPH. Congrats, guys. I can't seem to take it off repeat!
Stunning! Such a great vibe to this, and props to Grace Kelly too!
Certainly brightened up a cloudy Thursday :D
Wow! What a fabulous sax. I don’t know where you guys find such fabulous studio quality musicians but it sure is great to listen to and to watch!
Here for that Saxafreak! Absolutely awesome! This should have millions of views!
Love it! The vocal performances on this one are top-notch, and Grace's exuberance takes it even higher.
Ah, man. I got to see Grace perform in Brooklyn a couple of years ago. She was playing with my friend's band as a guest and I was just completely blown away. So cool to see her here. Literally the coolest person I've ever been near.
This cover is something very special. Thank you so much!
Oh my good gracious! Another one out of the park, folks. Of course ALL of your and your friends' musical talents and gifts are just at the top of the professional game, but that was one of the very nicest saxophone treatments I've heard in years! Please keep up all the great work!
Oh, and I'm a trumpet player/guitarist, so that's really a lot coming from me! Nicely done, all.
That sax!!! You guys are the best! 💜
This is just amazing. The original song is a personal favorite and somehow you guys made it different but, dare I say, equally good. Hats off, volume up, mood boosted. Thank you!
This is such a delightful, fun, and uplifting cover! You all did such a good job, and I think Mika would agree.
Very uplifting. Lovely to see the fun & focused musical collaboration, and really appreciating the saxophone playing.
Came here for Grace Kelly (the song--I'm a Mika lover.) Stayed for Grace Kelly (the sax)! OMG. And posted this comment for Pomplamoose, always brings a smile despite this pandemic. Merci!!
OMG! I actually cried watching this! Bloody fantastic, everything was perfect, such a fantastic rythym, I was jumping out of my seat 😂 that saxophonist, I don't think she could ever play anything more perfectly for me! All of you are wonderful, thank you for brightening my day with brilliant music xxx♥️
Incredible! I just came across this song two days ago after not hearing it for about 10 years. You guys read my mind, thanks!
That was excellent! The singing, the harmony, the timing.... And the that sax! Wow! I'm blown away. Great job!
That soprano sax solo was legendary
I swear my depression is healed now.
Watching people with so much passion and hearing the result is absolutely awesome.
What a team effort! Upbeat and fun! Thank you for making my morning.
Oooh! My face hurts! So good! I did not realize I needed this today, but wow, I really did. Thank you!
This cover is awesome !!!! I would listen to mika's 1st album a lot when it was released and you brought me back to this time :D (and huuuuh the sax
Love love love this (and I don't usually even like jazz). Hope Mika gets to hear this cover.
I'm always looking forward to what your take will be on songs and you never seem to disappoint.
Good lord y'all are incredibly talented. :) Yet another new favourite version from Pamplamousse! Keep On Keepin' On! :)
Wow! Just. Wow!! Loved it. That sax though ... whew! Amazing. Grace Kelly you killed it! Well done once again, Pomplamoose!!
Absolutely smashed it out of the park. The saxophonist is phenomenal too. Chapeau team.
Pomplamoose have got to be the tightest band (with varying members) in the world. Stunning cover and awesome work by all.
Absolutely brilliant. Such a good groove.
You guys consistently make me get goosebumps. Keep it up! Been a follower for some 3-4 years now :)
Fascinating, heartwarming and intimate to see everyone sitting to perform in a music circle with such great performance intensity, as if standing up. Masters! Bravo. Great engineering also. Gratitude!
So good! Keep them coming...love your work guys!
Awesome again. You guys bring light in those dark days! Thx.
Sooo good! The a capella part before the key change floored me! Nataly plus Kula and Dugas, it can't be better!
Wow, this is the first time I've heard Grace play something pretty chill. What a great colab with Nataly and company.
this is incredible. I should really stop being surprised at how talented you guys are but you lot always continue to surprise me lmao
Looooove it, cracking arrangement, top vocals and supreme Sax. Yeah baby - fly fly fly!
Just incredible!
One of the best covers i‘ve ever seen!
Impressive performance. Even more seeing how much fun you guys have with it...
So good to see everyone back in the same place!! That solo sent shivers down my spine! 😜
What a perfect bass!!! I love the layers in it (bass guitar+fat synthesized sound)
Je vous suis depuis un moment mais quelle cover les amis ! Une des meilleure et le saxo, un délice ! Merci pour ces moments magiques !
Wow !! I loved it and it looked so fun to record it like you did. Awesome band skills. Great job to everyone and thanks for posting the song.
And again... thank you thank you, love the sax!
I LOVE this. Can't get enough. Seriously.
Love this cover, love how it was arranged. Love the sax, very talented. The entire sound was awesome.
So so so good! That saxophone, omg!!
Absolutely fantastic and Grace's sax playing is just awesome!
Absolutely incredible!!!!!!
What a wonderful and great version! So funny that Grace Kelly joins Grace Kelly! And I really like your new hairdo! Looks absolutely great!
That horn sounds AMAZING!!! wow love this one for sure! Thank you!

This is sooooooo fantastic I can't even understand how are you all so talented
Super awesome! Everything about that was just remarkable
Whaou,toujours formidable,je me régale à chaque fois. Merci,merci,merci.
GRACE KELLY! is something in this! wow! 🤩
Fabulous saxophone, what a wonderful performance of everyone in this band!
This is pure joy! Thanks 🙏🏼
OMG! So amazing! Wow!
Yes! Thank you! 🥳💚
That was Wonderful . The addition of the Sax to the mix was Great and made it a little Funky too :)
Getting Grace Kelly to play the song 'Grace Kelly' was a stroke of Genius , truly. And now I'm gonna be Grace's fan forever - she's awesome.
Great song, music, band, and atmosphere to go. Lighting like the 70s and 80s. Thank you.
Grace Kelly, you are totally brilliant! You guys are amazing, Thank You for the tears & joy!
Fantastic absolutely love it all.. that Sax is the best.
Awesome piece
Awesome! 👏👏👏👏
You all guys made my night!
This is so cool!! Love it
Brilliant!!! Just Brilliant!!
Lovin' the Grace Kelly sax, and of course the usual Pomplamoose goodness. But let's not forget that unexpected, but awesome, a cappella bit in the middle. Well done, all.
Too glam!! And, that's what exactly is needed for this song. Amazing guys. 💞
Finally the have returned to a less reverb-y sound that really demonstrates how much pocket these guys have!!
That was a lot of fun, thanks for sharing your talent everyone!
So good!
I am just knocked out that you do this sort of thing without goin into the lab. Real music, played in ensemble. Great.
Awesome!!
Fantastic clip. I LOVED IT
Loved watching this video, fantastic.
There's no better way to funk up your song than to have Nick Campbell on bass. Also, who wouldn't want to be like Grace Kelly. Definitely one of the best and most fun sax players out there.
Another amazing cover
Another wonderful remaking of a song that has already previously brought me much joy. Grace murdered it on the sax.
love every single frame of this video
The vibe is so good... I just love it 😻
