It was only after listening to Jamie Cullum's jazz rendition that I noticed that I Took a Pill to Ibiza is a good song. I never noticed the lyrics before. It's kind of sad really. I kinda feel bad for Mike Posner. Thank you Jamie for making me appreciate pop songs ever more xD
My absolute favourite part about Song Society is that you can clearly see they have a blast doing it :) and we all know Jamie turns everything he touches into pure gold :)
Incredible! Didn't appreciate the lyrics of the original song until I saw what Jamie interpret them, now in love with both versions. Thank you for your talent!
Is there nothing Jamie Cullum can't do?! Everything does blows my mind! Too bad he didnt come to sing in Vegas again! My kids want to see him too! They are 19 and 22
Thank you for deliviring real music. With love, fun, passion and mistakes. You're the best! Can't wait to see you live again. I wish I had tickets to the Groove Festival in Cascais. Keep up the amazing work!
I think this cover does a fantastic job of finding a balance between the original and the remix. I feel like in the remix, the meaning of the lyrics gets lost, and the original is great, but a also a slow song. I like the vibe of this one. It's a fun beat, but the lyrics don't get lost in the music.
Jamie, all your Song Society songs are great. I bought your first album in HK way back. I saw you play in Kings Cross last year. Thank you for the music ☺️
I really want to make a mashup between this and mercy mercy mercy by cannonball adderly with a jazz combo! Crazy but like the beat is sooo similar with the eighth notes and bass!! I just love how JAMIE was playing standards before he got into the pop song to make his own twist on it! Very inspirational!
You are just amazing. Got all your albums (except for Pointless Nostalgic, which is hard to find here in Portugal), and two copies of Interlude, which I deem (probably) the best album you recorded. Thank you for all of this, and see you on the 26th of June. Cheers!
I took a pill in Ibiza To show Avicii I was cool And when I finally got sober, felt ten years older But fuck it, it was something to do I'm living out in LA I drive a sports car just to prove I'm a real big baller 'cause I made a million dollars And I spend it on girls and shoes But you don't wanna be high like me Never really knowing why like me You don't ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all alone You don't wanna ride the bus like this Never knowing who to trust like this You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singing Stuck up on that stage singing All I know are sad songs, sad songs Darling, all I know are sad songs, sad songs I'm just a singer who already blew his shot I get along with old timers 'Cause my name's a reminder of a pop song people forgot And I can't keep a girl, no 'Cause as soon as the sun comes up I cut 'em all loose and work's my excuse But the truth is I can't open up Now you don't wanna be high like me Never really knowing why like me You don't ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all alone You don't wanna ride the bus like this Never knowing who to trust like this You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singing Stuck up on that stage singing All I know are sad songs, sad songs Darling, all I know are sad songs, sad songs I took a plane to my home town I brought my pride and my guitar All my friends are all gone but there's manicured lawns And the people still think I'm a star I walked around downtown I met some fans on Lafayette They said: Tell us how to make it 'cause we're getting real impatient So I looked 'em in the eye and said You don't wanna be high like me Never really knowing why like me You don't ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all alone You don't wanna ride the bus like this Never knowing who to trust like this You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singing Stuck up on that stage singing All I know are sad songs, sad songs Darling, all that I know are sad songs, sad songs

The original is actually brilliant! The remix is ok but the original by Mike Posner is really really good
The video with the papier-mâché is wonderful. lol

I was hoping to hear you sing the high notes in with the piano solo from 4.08 onwards Jamie! Awesome cover though thanks for sharing!

Amazing!
You are just amazing. Got all your albums (except for Pointless Nostalgic, which is hard to find here in Portugal), and two copies of Interlude, which I deem (probably) the best album you recorded. Thank you for all of this, and see you on the 26th of June.
Cheers!
This is awesome
Amazing stuff!
Have you ever thought of making a cover album. These songs are gold! In my opinion at least.
+gary 0815 he did! its called The Pursuit. got some older stuff. the please dont stop the music version off it is my fav
+Alan Weber I believe the Pursuit had some cover songs on there but had original music as well. The Interlude was all cover songs.
Lennart Knodel have a look at his spotifiy for more music and covers from him
🔥🔥🔥
Love it
I'd definitely listen to your straight no chaser monk/Posner mashup hahaha
Amazing, as always :)
love this!
GENUIS!
freakin liking it!!!
keep it up Jamie (:
unbelievable
I took a pill in Ibiza
To show Avicii I was cool
And when I finally got sober, felt ten years older
But fuck it, it was something to do
I'm living out in LA
I drive a sports car just to prove
I'm a real big baller 'cause I made a million dollars
And I spend it on girls and shoes
But you don't wanna be high like me
Never really knowing why like me
You don't ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all alone
You don't wanna ride the bus like this
Never knowing who to trust like this
You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singing
Stuck up on that stage singing
All I know are sad songs, sad songs
Darling, all I know are sad songs, sad songs
I'm just a singer who already blew his shot
I get along with old timers
'Cause my name's a reminder of a pop song people forgot
And I can't keep a girl, no
'Cause as soon as the sun comes up
I cut 'em all loose and work's my excuse
But the truth is I can't open up
Now you don't wanna be high like me
Never really knowing why like me
You don't ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all alone
You don't wanna ride the bus like this
Never knowing who to trust like this
You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singing
Stuck up on that stage singing
All I know are sad songs, sad songs
Darling, all I know are sad songs, sad songs
I took a plane to my home town
I brought my pride and my guitar
All my friends are all gone but there's manicured lawns
And the people still think I'm a star
I walked around downtown
I met some fans on Lafayette
They said: Tell us how to make it 'cause we're getting real impatient
So I looked 'em in the eye and said
You don't wanna be high like me
Never really knowing why like me
You don't ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all alone
You don't wanna ride the bus like this
Never knowing who to trust like this
You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singing
Stuck up on that stage singing
All I know are sad songs, sad songs
Darling, all that I know are sad songs, sad songs
Want this on Spotify!!!!!!! Now!!!
I could listen to your covers on a repeat for years! And yes, you are such a genius!
