I was a big fan of the Pretenders back in the 80s and in particular this fantastic song. I have to say this cover has done it justice, What a fantastic band BUT WOW what a stunning vocalist, she sure can sing.
I think the thing that strikes me most about IMY2 covers is that the group takes the time to really study the original, respect it via outstanding musicianship and not jacking up what made it great in the first place, and then placing their own stamp on it. This is just the latest example. Well done.
Very nice! More people need to notice this band! Yet another instalment in the ongoing series of Annalise's Excellent Enunciation Teaches Me What A Lyric I've Heard For Years Really Is. ('Sidestep' in this case. 🙂)
I love how I can always understand the lyrics you sing. There have been times in the past I thought a lyric was something else in a song you covered until you cleared it up 😁💙
Annalise - and "the boys" - are indeed SPECIAL. So thanks IMY2 for giving us fans this Pretenders jewel some ATTENTION! Hey A - love the bangs, curl, and blue eye shadow... Give Mama A some howdys from Texas!
Although I watch all of your videos, I never miss one, I haven't commented in a long time...but I'm feeling very compelled to comment on this video... Bravo...👏 This one is particularly very well done... It's perfect in my opinion... I loved it...🤟 You couldn't have done it any better...👍 And...by the way... Annalise... I love your new hairstyle...looks good...very attractive 🥰. I noticed it before but I haven't said anything until now... Love ya girl...🤟
I seen the pretenders live when I was still in school a very long time ago you have defiantly captured there sound I'm sure Chrissie Hyde would very much a prove of your cover love it
Go Annaliese and IMY2 … fantastic cover nailed it again!!! Not many new bands get my attention anymore … but you … get my attention every single song you do !!! I 💙 IMY2 !!!
I have no doubt you could crush this song.... It's one of my favorites ... One of the best things about it is the speed in which It's sung. Honestly the slower the better . Your version though good is way to fast . Try it again slower. I have no doubt you will kill it. I am a true ffan and want nothing but the best for you all. Nothing but love and Respect !!!
I've seen a few covers of this and I gotta say this is one of the best ones I've seen. In my opinion, this has to be sung with a sort of confident, cougarish attitude and this singer is spot on with that. ;)
Hi guys!! What a very pleasant surprise!! I've always loved the playfulness of this song. Thank you for your version! I watched this after a particularly hard day today. Once again, you perked me up! Thank you for that slice of happy 😊😊😊
Well, I'm just gonna' put this out there: Is there anything this 3-pack does poorly (not that I really wanna' know)? I mean - - all of the genres they've covered, the VID's they've put out, I have yet to see one that wasn't stellar. If they were Colo locals, I'd be happy to pay to see them live. Keep it up & great job, AGAIN y'all!
Very nice!!! 👏 Bravo!!! ❤ This sets up perfect recommendation to do a version of Special by Garbage which is partially an ode to Chrissie Hynde and the Pretenders! 😎
I don't watch every week because I always want to set aside time to be relaxed and really hear this music, and my goodness, those pipes and licks. Always amazing, thank you for producing these earworms
I kept requesting Andree to do this but she never responded ! Glad she didn't ! Your version was absolutely fantastic !!!!!!! Keep it up !!!!!! Vietnam Vet Tom
Newcomer here, very impressed indeed. It struck me you could do real justice to some Sarah McLachlan numbers like for example In Your Shoes, or Sweet Surrender or Fallen, gosh there are so many great songs of hers. Keep them coming!
This she my favorite ! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

This was one of my favorite tracks when I was in high school in the late 80s - now I think I found my favorite rendition of it in 2024
She shines like a beautiful blue Sapphire💙
Awesome comment! 😊
Indeed. And as clear as an azure sky in deepest summer.
I think the thing that strikes me most about IMY2 covers is that the group takes the time to really study the original, respect it via outstanding musicianship and not jacking up what made it great in the first place, and then placing their own stamp on it. This is just the latest example. Well done.
That is so damn good!!! She is mesmerizing...
Annalise, Mike and Cal can cover any song. What three big talents. I have yet to hear one of their covers that fails to be wonderful.
Annalise and the boys recreating this incredible song with a fresh new perspective that is pure magic 💕💕💕
Nice! ‘Back on the Chain Gang’ next! You guys would crush it!
Very nice! More people need to notice this band! Yet another instalment in the ongoing series of Annalise's Excellent Enunciation Teaches Me What A Lyric I've Heard For Years Really Is. ('Sidestep' in this case. 🙂)
Maybe it's best if stay under the radar !! Otherwise the managers will burn out these wonderful artists
"Detroit leaning" means driving with the window down and your elbow leaning on the door.
The image of Scarlett Johansson singing this song in Lost in Translation immediately came to MY IMAGINATION. Beautiful cover!! I loved. 💜🖤💜🖤
Don't insult Analise by comparing her to that no talent, plastic surgeried hack.
Amazing performance all of you!! 👏👏❤️❤️🎤🎤🎸🎸🎶🎶🥰🥰
Excellent performance! One of your best.
Great cover! The powerful voice and sound is so Pretenders. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Welcome to my living room TV again on this fine Thursday, Annalise, Mike & Cal. You're a regular fixture. Cheers. 🍺
B😢
Chrissy would be so proud. Excellent cover.
I love how I can always understand the lyrics you sing. There have been times in the past I thought a lyric was something else in a song you covered until you cleared it up 😁💙
Blown away by this cover from Annalise who has a seductive and on-point voice. What a singer and of course a great backing band too.
I like that you can understand every word she sings. Such a clear voice, and gorgeous.
Wow once again you guys knock it out of the park.
This baby girl has a a voice like a Angel flying from heaven 🎶🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎶🎵🎶🎵🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️

Annalise - and "the boys" - are indeed SPECIAL. So thanks IMY2 for giving us fans this Pretenders jewel some ATTENTION! Hey A - love the bangs, curl, and blue eye shadow... Give Mama A some howdys from Texas!
That just took me right back to school days. The Pretenders were one of my favourite groups. Really good cover thank you.

I just realized I have been listening to your cover for a long time now, and never once have I been disappointed. You guys are excellent.
Damn, yet another home run, clear outta the park.
Yay! Well done. Great song choice. Rendition is up there with the original.😊
saw them live in a small club in Detroit in 81. killer show.
I LOVE IT. Analise captures that sultriness of Chrissy Hynde and makes it so much better.
Good job everyone on a great cover of a timeless classic.
"Sultry." The perfect word to describe her performance!
Your covers are better than the originals! You will be a star!
You ARE joking Doug ........ ?

Great song choice!
I absolutely love when you break out the blast from the past . 😊❤
What a voice! You really are special! Everything this group does is fantastic.
That was a wicked take!
Great performance all around and I will always love that killer bass line driving it along.
Thanks, that was great! 😎👍🍻

Excellent cover IMY2. So good it put the hairs up on the back of my neck!
Wonderful rendition! Annalise, I think you found your anthem :) Because you are special, no one like you! No one like IMY2!
You guys are extremely impressive. I always look forward to seeing you what you are doing next.
Excelente canción!!!, los felicito!!!
Well, I'm just gonna' put this out there: Is there anything this 3-pack does poorly (not that I really wanna' know)? I mean - - all of the genres they've covered, the VID's they've put out, I have yet to see one that wasn't stellar. If they were Colo locals, I'd be happy to pay to see them live. Keep it up & great job, AGAIN y'all!
