I recognize Scott Bradlee on the piano. I've met him on several occasions. He is larger in life than in person...which really has no bearing on this comment. But here's the thing...combine Scott Bradlee with Haley Reinhart...you've got musical magic. I know, I've experienced it first hand...it's a beautiful thing!
Yes, I've been listening to The Great Lost lately a lot and it's great just like any of their songs. It's a shame that they're not as famous as they deserve to be.
++Brandy Bobo A great thing about this album is the production which allows one to hear so well the things she does so superbly with her voice. That alone makes it her best album to date.
++av40229 Ach, she just sings a song and makes it sound good. Aye, I know, a massive, massive understatement. She makes them ALL sound good. These songs aren't really old to me, but elsewhere I see clips of her singing some of the old classics from The Great American Songbook. She's some vocal artist. In fact, a real vocal artist!

The kinks version of this song is in my top five of 2020... haley's version just made the list the first time I heard it. Her covers are most times better than the originals. She has the sexiest voice ever. I love you haley
This song was absolutely made for Haley and a PMJ style cover - such a playful bouncy melody. I didn't know she'd done a cover, I heard the original today and thought 'fuck that'd sound good with Haley' and had a quick look
++Orange Lime I don't know if it's New Orleans but thon piano of Scott Bradlee definitely adds to it and gives it a different feel to the Kinks' version. Of course that's before mentioning the absolutely fabulous singing of Haley. Throughout the whole album her voice with all it's unique qualities comes across more clearly than in anything else she's recorded. This is my particular favourite but it's all bloody great! Ach, I'm going to have to listen again!
This song helped me comprehend the full meaning of the word 'beauty'. I can't describe in simple words the feelings this song brings out in me. Just perfection
Hearing this all I need is the vinyl record and whiskey in the jar... Great voice, once again nailed it! Oposed to "Better" song where I want to rip my ears off. What's wrong with this pop, modern, rock, multi-culti noisy music? Keep is simple and clear guys, much better and more sophisticated.
I note that this album included Scott Bradly. I enjoy many of the recordings that Haley has made (Shook, and some others) with out Scott Bradley, but I have noted that the Haley Reinhart - Scott Bradley productions are a step above. I first noticed this with Seven Nation Army, Oops, I Did It Again, All about that Bass, Black Hole Sun, Habits. Haley's performances were much better than the songs she was singing. Sadly, In Seven Nation Army there were no credits given for the dress or the choreography, but they were important components of that video. I would also like to know more about all who played a part in these., This album seems to regain the excellence I heard in the earlier collaborative work. This is straight music, very good, but the earlier performance videos were better because Haley is an amazing singer, vocalist, and performer. I would really like to know more how these artists cooperate and interact to come up with this stuff. The results are just stunning. I have very much enjoyed this album.
Haley signed with Concord Records to produce this album, "What's That Sound?" It was recorded on vintage tape stock using vintage equipment. This is the only song on the album Scott Bradley performed on. Martin Guigui played keys on the other songs. Haley's mother provided backup vocals and her dad guitar on some tracks. A couple of members of Haley's band at the time contributed as well. Jacob Scesney and other friends, too. You can see them on the video shot in studio for "The Letter." Many of the dresses Haley wore in the PMJ videos were from Alyce Paris. Provided by a family friend/fan who worked there in Public Relations. Sadly, she passed away in December from Covid.

I have been listening to this album on repeat for about a month now. This was the one I skipped for the first half of that month. Now, I have to say, this is THE best song on the album. Took me a while lot love it. Such an epic song. That's the way to convince people Haley - Has to be one of the best covers ever made.
Orange Lime don't worry i listen to jazz all the time. and no need to get defensive, to me those notes sound vibratey. But aside from that, the vocal arrangements and techniques are perfect from a jazz perspective. thanks for the recommendation tho
The tax man's taken all my dough
And left me in my stately home
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
And I can't sail my yacht
He's taken everything I got
All I've got's this sunny afternoon
Save me, save me, save me from this squeeze
I gotta big fat mama trying to break me
And I love to live so pleasantly
Live this life of luxury
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
In the summertime
In the summertime
In the summertime
My girlfriend's run off with my car
And gone back to her ma and pa
Telling tails of drunkenness and cruelty
Now I'm sitting here
Sipping at my ice cold beer
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
Help me, help me, help me sail away
Well give me two good reasons why I oughta stay
'Cause I love to live so pleasantly
Live this life of luxury
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
In the summertime
In the summertime
In the summertime
Ah, save me, save me, save me from this squeeze
I gotta big fat mama trying to break me
And I love to live so pleasantly
Live this life of luxury
Lazing on a sunny afternoon
In the summertime
In the summertime
In the summertime
In the summertime
In the summertime
Thanks for the lyrics. I've sort of known them since 66 when I was 11.🇺🇸
unique and great cover of this song (original by the Kinks), her voice and singing is quite different from the original so its like her own now
I recognize Scott Bradlee on the piano. I've met him on several occasions. He is larger in life than in person...which really has no bearing on this comment. But here's the thing...combine Scott Bradlee with Haley Reinhart...you've got musical magic. I know, I've experienced it first hand...it's a beautiful thing!
buzzenator qué envidia 😞 yo nunca podré verlos
Nice someone is bringing a Kinks tune back, they wrote some great songs, a real treasure trove of forgotten music.
have yet to find a song of theirs I don't like. they're a special group for sure.
Yes, I've been listening to The Great Lost lately a lot and it's great just like any of their songs. It's a shame that they're not as famous as they deserve to be.
It’s really strange that they were kicked out of the U.S. - they would have rivaled the Beatles…
Again priceless for my heart & soul, she outdoes herself over and over for me. I adore the things she does with that voice...
++Brandy Bobo
A great thing about this album is the production which allows one to hear so well the things she does so superbly with her voice. That alone makes it her best album to date.
You do the oldies much justice young lady !

@@gynack Totally agree!
I would love to hear her sing Mr Sandman..:)
That would actually be great
Isn't she involved with postmodern jukebox? Pretty sure they must have done at least one cover of that.
It doesn't seem to matter if it's jazz, soul or pop. 60's, 70's or current music you can nail it all in your own style. Brilliant Haley.
The tax man's taken all my dough

Well, give me two good reasons
Why I ought to stay

Just love listening to her voice. Hope this album goes gold.
I'm Walking on Heaven with this carefree uplifting tune.
PERFEITA, PERFEITA, PERFEITA.....😍❣🇧🇷

Wow, Haley has such a magnificent voice, great range singing soft or loud, great style and exceptional talent. Well done.
Next: "Downtown" "Summer in the City" "The Letter"
Why have I not heard this before? Bradlee adds a real polish to her performance.

Haley, when are you hitting the clubs in Berlin?????
The songs she makes or covers never lose it’s magic
WOW good song love your singing keep making more songs you're awesome

Stan.
I love this song
Kinky!
😍👍👍👍💋💋💋
Adore U)
Are some of her lower harmonies off key later in the song? (1:31, 2:48)
If that were the case, they would have recut the vocal. I didn't hear anything off key and I listened several times.
yaa but it does sound kind of vibratey or just a little off. I dont know maybe you are right and it's just the style but do you not hear that?
Actually, not off at all. I'd recommend listening to some Jazz.
Orange Lime don't worry i listen to jazz all the time. and no need to get defensive, to me those notes sound vibratey. But aside from that, the vocal arrangements and techniques are perfect from a jazz perspective. thanks for the recommendation tho
Is this supposed to be a problem or a flaw or something? I like the way it is.
