      Same! I had never heard of Dua Lupa before discovering Julia's channel, and honestly, I agree with you that this is the right way to be introduced to the songs!

      I decided to give the album a listen based on Julia's covers, and it's SO worth a listen. Basically the whole album grooves way harder than a pop album has any right to groove. Julia just happens to elevate the groove even more.

    I'am a 19 year old guy from India who loves music. I've heard about Dua Lipa before but never really listened to her songs but, somehow landed upon this cover without listening to the original. Trust me when I heard this, I cried all night on how beautifully this bass cover is arranged an played. I've been listening to this everyday for atleast 5 times a day and I think I'am addicted to this cover forever. Julia ,I really think you helped me recover from my depression and Thank you so much for that. Julia you have some really good talent in you. Someday for sure you're gonna be one of the World's most renowned bassist.

    Dear Julia, today I listened again to this song, maybe 15 times or more. Now I understand even much more, that it is so much greater than everything you (also very great) played before. All your work on this piece ended in really precious (drogocenny) music. I was diving so much into any moment of this tune. I liked the most: 0:35 great syncopes.
    At 0:47 one extra note with the index finger at the 3rd fret makes the playing downwards so much cooler/more full - just top.
    At 1:17 all these extra little melodies and "mini-notes", like the last middle finger at 1:18 in this block (before going down), can't get enough of this many little extra notes.
    Also at 1:27 so incredible extras, and at 1:40 , and also this short spot at 1:56, just GREAT passages (?przejście?) .
    2:30 dream sound and techique.
    Wonderful idea at 3:00-3:02, NICE!
    At 3:09 bending the string with the pinkie finger = creame on a cake.

I just find it infinitely pleasing to watch as she matures in her craft from her first post of Muse Hysteria until now.
