Now listen to it again, with headphones this time, and focus on this flawless bass player.
Yes the bass work is excellent.
Toni plays great understated yet imaginative bass lines
Lou Davidson She is playing the bassline from the original one
@@AlcaparraLetal flawlessly.
And the bass line is not one of the easiest I guess.
No body can resist that smirk... when they sing "she done me, she done me good" :)
What does "she done me" stand for?
@@fedechiossone9932 A very British euphemism for she f#cked him. John Lennon wasn't always subtle :-)
They had been naughty British schoolboys only a few years before :) See also "four of fish and finger pie"
@@fedechiossone9932 WELL WHEN HE LEFT CYNTHIA, I UNDERSTOOD THAT YOKO DID SOMETHING SPECIAL TO JOHN IN BED.
Phil Spicer 😂😂
Seeing someone play it made me realize the Bass is CRUCIAL for most of this song, it really makes it.
Yeah ofc, bass control lower frequency of song.
@@bimshake I think the OP's point may have slid by you -- the bass is (almost) always key to filling the lower frequencies, but in this song, the bass guitar is effectively a lead instrument, driving the groove.
RaZe Gorky Paul McCartney’s bass lines were above all musical and melodic. Check them all... a great bass player... and of course sang too.
@@bimshake But my comment was discussing the Bass in this song specifically! If you want to discuss bass in general you should go find a place where that discussion will fit in!
@@johnnyfrisco5354 You do NOT gotta tell me that man! I know how fucking absolutely amazing Paul McCartney is, and how beautiful his bass lines are, but this is a whole new level of essential to the song! Come Together levels of the Bass being essential!
Toni quietly sitting in the background just slayin’ the bass line! Aren’t enough Oooooohs in Coool to describe Toni.
Seriously. She made that song. I keep listening to it in awe.
Smokin 🔥.
no lie, i went to comment about the bass guitarist killin it, glad im not the only one who thinks so!!!
Very smooth bass & perfect blend - just right. At first (not noticing the credits), I thought it was Marnie Stern. Great group of talent!
"Carson McKee and his many singing faces" That made me smile. Make all the faces you want: superb voice, uber talented guy.
It worked for Joe Cocker.
@@bguen1234 Totally
@@bguen1234 Totally
Reminds me of the faces that the singer in "The Commitments"movie makes.
Agree!
The bassist, yes, she is great, but the first guitar here, is also fantastic. All of them are. Thank you kids.
I've just realized Josh is playing Billy Preston's piano part. That's amaizing.
Wow
And George's part
@@neilkanatt4557 Indeed. super professional
Josh Turner is very underrated as a musician. I hope he blows up here soon.
@Insignificant Speck Of Dust I met Josh Turner a couple of years ago. Hanging round after a gig chatting to the audience. He was delightful, generous and as far from conceited as it is possible to be. And it was an amazing gig.
It just makes me happy to see and hear such talented musicians and singers of your generation keeping these wonderful songs of the late Sixties alive.
The sweet spot of acoustic music. Pure. Simple. Refined. Focused. Simply incredible and most enjoyable. Thanks for a wide smile at the end of a hard day.
Dogband Or a hard day’s night. 😉
Acoustic? *Sweats in bass*
Josh is like a professor, never shows emotions. Carson is living the moment. Best duo.
I grew up with the Beatles and loved their music. It is so great to see today's young people liking their music too and giving such a great performance.
Alright, with the indisputable creativity and virtuosity of these folks, along with Josh's incomparable production techniques, I think they could blow everyone socks off with a Bohemian Rhapsody cover!! Who's with me? The world needs more of Josh, Carson, Reina Del Cid, and Toni!
This crew produces the most tasteful of arrangements.
Alsatiagent agreed
I usually agree, not this time tho’. The Beatles’ version has a hint of desperation, a cry if you will, this arrangement is somehow “just another song”.
1777DK well said
It lacks the cry, the desperation, yet, tasteful
really talented at arranging covers
This is what I imagine jamming with friends is going to be like
Yup
If you and your friends are incredibly talented
LordWilmore incredibly talented...they are 😊
She is really very talented
Michelangelo y? U planning to?😏
"Well, I'm not going to play it any better than that."
It doesn't need to be any better than that. That was perfect!
Carson's vocals were terrific.
The Bass line and acoustic lead were fantastic
Whenever I see all of you playing outside, I wonder how many people are watching you. Great cover, thank you.
Far out ... it's truly impressive when a "cover" can take a 67 y.o. back to her 14 year old self listening to the Beatles on her tiny tinny pink record player up in her lower working class 'I gotta get out of this place' bedroom in inner North Sydney (Australia) with real tears. Magic. It's very very hard to do a cover that satisfies the original longing of a teenage heart. And you achieve it every single time! P.S. The bedroom had no power point (it was an 1880's terrace way before 'gentrification') and so a long extension lead snaked its way up 14 late Victorian stairs to my bedroom.
I lived in a very old place in Kurraba Rd Neutral Bay, which still stands. I'm sure the powerpoints were a fairly recent installation.
@@Rollers123a I know that area quite well. I learned to drive around those streets!
A wonderful remembrance, Carolyn. I'm a couple decades behind you and slightly jealous of the wonder you must have experienced at hearing this back then.
I've recently concluded that mostly who we are as individuals is the sum of our memories and experiences. And for all its (many) faults, the Internet is maybe a good vehicle to preserve and share our memories a while longer, perhaps granting our lives a longer reach than what we were originally granted.
In short, thanks for sharing your memories. It was cool to read of them.
IDK. It's nice, this cover. And I really appreciate all these kids who are in tune with old music as well, and I could never do it myself. You feel the 'but' coming? But for this tune I truly have the feeling that one needs to have lived a little different life, or have had some kind of background to cover this one. Lennon had gone through so much already before this one. Please check out the Dillard & Clark version when it comes to this one. ruclips.net/video/oOdxNy6m-A4/видео.html
Cheers.
Ok boomer
Love these guys together. They make such beautiful music together.
I don't know why, but the bass player had me mesmerized. The whole performance was just fantastic.
Toni is an absolutely incredible musician, she can do anything
such a great cover.
Bass sounds real nice and smooth aswell
Roele Buijk the young lady on the bass is good.
Toni never disappoints...
Roele Buijk
I wish she played Paul's actual part tho. It's such a beautiful baseline, but disappointingly is not played here... The rest is perfect.
Please
There's a lot of talent in this video, but Carson's voice is still a standout - a beautiful warm golden honey.
...Spectacular. All of these young musicians are super-talented.
Just amazing - I wish I had the words to explain what these Beatles songs mean to me after more than 50 years. And these versions are fantastic at keeping it alive.
I agree totally. I was so into the Beatles, way back when, and these talented young artists are bringing it all back to me and I love it, love it, love it.
Great job!!!!
I love Carson's faces when he sings. So many people look bland when they sing and that isn't the case with any of these musicians. Thanks again for another lovely piece.
He looks like he's taking a very painful shit
Nice to see it posted on your channel Carson
Indeed.
Why did all this time they posted covers on josh's channel??
There is nothing I love more than a beautiful, heartfelt Beatles cover. You guys nailed it. Thank you! I'm so happy right now.
I think we all know what Carson was thinking when he had that little smile on his face as he sang "Woo she really done me. She really done me good." Great job by all! You all never "let me down" with your many performances. And yes there are not a lot of people that can take an original song like this and do such a fantastic job that it will hold my attention through the whole song. Thanks!
Her four musicians fit so well together and have been so wonderful and very professional. Thank you for the great music and greetings from Germany.
I love you all as solo artists and duos as well. That said, the four of you together equal way more than the sum of your parts. There is some kind of magic that happens when the four of you work together. It's something very special.
Toni killing it on the Bass! Vocals are brilliant.
I think I’ve watched just about every video the 4 of you have made, together, separately and in every combo there-in, and I’m so blown away over what great musicians you are. Never know which instrument any of you might play on any given song but it’s always spot on. Keep having fun and posting your stuff. Thank you.
I am blown away by Toni's bass. Josh is now joined by Toni for my favorite new bass players. This was a really well done video, all of you are so talented.
"Well I'm not gonna play any better than that"
Brilliant!
Lol hahaha
That bass really is fantastic.......so understated, yet the song would be nothing without it.
The beautiful St. Anne's Cathedral in the background in my home City Belfast , and in the foreground four amazingly talented young Americans on tour . Listen to the harmonies , the bass and acoustic guitars , just wonderful ..singing a great Beatles song . But they also have something that is sadly missing in today's empty and sometimes meaningless music ......they have soul ! Rave on you guys . Check out their amazing Harvest Moon cover too.
Awesome bunch of friends with massive talent. Love listening to them together and apart. Thanks Carson for posting this.
Awesome Carson, loving the good old Beatle covers.
that falsetto is incredible. flawless.
I've seen the bass player play some sparkling guitar in other videos, but her bass playing on this song is masterful and seemingly effortless. This well done and sincere cover would almost be pointless without her. Great job guys.
Such a lovely warm tone on a splendid Belfast day. Beautiful! Josh, Carson, Reina and Toni - our Fab Four!
Something special happens when you four get together. It feels like there is more joy and less stress in the world. Thank you.
With Reina’s recent surge on social media I couldn’t help but wonder where I knew her from and then I remembered these videos. Such a great performance.
Stumbled on these guys...nice to hear good classics from young people... timeless
Make no mistake, the bass player made this song - she was great. McCartney's melodic bass runs were all the difference on these straightforward tunes.
IMHO three things made the Beatles outstanding, their tight harmonies (check), McCartney's innovative bass work (check), and Ringo's unique drum style, (2 out of three ain't bad).
Thank you, sir, for getting IT.
Didn't know Kirsten Dunst could play bass so well
Toni Lindgren is amazing.
@@sailorbychoice1 The McCartney cult are out in full force. This is a John Lennon song (primarily) but the Macca obsessives will have none of it. The Beatles quaternary: Paul the McCartney, Paul the Lennon, Paul the Harrison and Paul the Holy Ringo, amen.
I love how you guys swap instruments, you are all so talented, such a joy.
So inspiring. Thank you so much. That spirit will live on forever.
Perfection! The whole performance is just brilliant.
One of my favourite Fabs tracks ever. Brilliant guys - love it.
this is pure gold, thank you
Great version. You four very talented people give us so much joy. Thankyou!!!
I just discovered this wonderfully talented group of musicians and have been exploring their assorted videos. Wow!
Carson's singing face would be awesome to see on stage with Billy Strings' guitar face. The perfect combination.
The new Fab Four. :) Glad to see your channel taking off.
You people give me hope about this world. Thank you so much for loving the music in your own way. Nice bass playing too! Great harmonies.
always one of my favourite beatles tunes. and your cover really leaves me speechless and with tears in my eyes
One word that always keeps coming to mind every time I hear these four. WOW!!! The sky is the limit for this group if they stay with it. Such God given talent is truly amazing to watch.
Way way more than talent here. There are collective HOURS AND HOURS of practice. Practice is where it's really at. All the natural talent in the world will get you nowhere. You must practice. And practice.
The best song ever written. Beautiful arrangments, you are a hell of a talented crew. thank you for this moment :)
Wow! Perfection! The arrangement, performance, mix! And that bass playing! Thank you so much!
In the early 1970s I grew up listing to the Beatles (my dad played Beatles records over and over; I think we had all of the Beatles records). The Beatles sounded great to me then even though we only had a so-so turntable. Listening to Carson McKee and co. belt out this tune brings me back to the 1970s and it is awesome!!!! This version that Carson has posted sounds to me just as good as the Beatles version! Thanks Carson, the performance you posted is so incredibly impressive!!!!
No one can ever sing this like John and Paul, but this is still a good version.
Man including that bass really makes the difference on this one. Great job to all. Nice to see some young people appreciating a 50 year old song by the great Beatles.
Love when these groups get together and jam! And Toni never ceases to amaze me. I've seen her play slide, guitar, bass....I think she does it all.
drums, harmonica, upright bass....
This video is comforting on many levels, from the EXCELLENT quality of the cover, to the simple and relaxed way you perform it, to the joy you obviously have doing it to the joy your bring people like myself with it. Not to mention that the fact it has 599 thumbs down (at this writing), which reminds me that, little gems like this are necessary to continue to live in a world with such an overabundance of clueless, tasteless, tone deaf or just plain contrary people. Thanks again, and keep on spreading joy.
What’s really amazing is that I always manage to find gems like this. You guys are wonderful.
Carson McKee and his many singing faces are the reasons why i'm subscrived
Such sweet sensations! Smooth as silk. Soft as a spring rain. Soothing as a warm campfire.
Boy this is insanely good! You guys are incredible. Thank you!!!
dude on lead guitar is killingggg it while delivering a superb vocal
If you're not familiar with Josh Turner, do yourself a favor and look up "Josh Turner Guitar" on RUclips. He's brilliant, as are Carson, Reina, and Toni.
I don’t think I’ll be the only one to feel this way..... Y’all make my soul happy.
Thank you for making your beautiful music together. ✌️❤️💕🤩🎉🎉
One of my favorite songs of all time. You guys did it justice. Thanks!
Reina has one of the most beautiful voices I have heard in YEARS! And I love watching her facial expressions when she sings. You can see the heart and energy she put into every vocal. Watching her and Carson sing together is amazing. At first, it appears humorous, but after a few videos of them, you realize it is typically not intended for humor and shows the amount of emotion and effort put into their vocals.
One of my favourite Beatles songs and very well done.
Was great to see you all in Leeds recently btw.
You guys are so fun! Love your covers, they are top notch.
One of my all time favorite Beatles song and y'all DEFINATLY did it justice!!! Awesome!!
DEFINITELY....
Bravo!!!! This is my #1 favorite Beatles song and you guys crushed it. I like the soft sound and the harmony was on point.
Awesome take on this one. Carson, you can really make it real. Love your emotion and effort. As always, Josh takes the details to the next level and makes the song complete. If only I could play like you. Thanks for posting this. It inspired me to break out my Taylor and play along.
That was a great cover of a classic. You all harmonize very well together. Great job guys.
You guys are awesome. Im 59 and am thrilled to hear you do old favorites of mine. Singer, songwriters are all but gone unless you like country music. Thank you for sharing your talents.
It's so good. The music, the scenery, everything. Thank you.
The best cover I've heard of this song. You honor the memory of John with your rendition. Thank you.
Good god... hard to express just how good this is.
sounds so good! everbody´s doing great.really love this bass layer - indeed, lucky bass being played by Toni
So much talent, all four of you!
Josh is so good at pointing out what makes the genius of songs. His playing shows how G.Harrison could make of a good song an extraordinary one ! Jolly good ! You are great !
One of my favorites by one of my favorites!
Great job,....could listen to these guys all day.
I couldn't stop a tear of joy. This is fantastic
My absolute favorite Beatles song. Sounded great.
Im in love with the bass player. Just beautiful
Keep coming back to this . The harmonies and musicianship are excellent. Great cover of a belter of a song.
Hairs on my old (82) head stood straight up on this rendition...what great young talent! Thanks for your well earned virtuosity.
head voice harmonies were soooo clean
The four of you are just brilliant!
I love the passion. What a beautiful rendition!!
I love that you all change instruments and you never know who will be on what!!!!!
You all nailed the instruments SO GOOD ALL!!!!!!
Toni stands out on that bass playing. Perfection! Can't get enuff Toni! Reina, Josh and Carson . . . perfect!
I love to listen to all four of you, such Great Sound!
Man, you guys are so focused and spot on with every performance. Bravo!
With young lads and lassies like this, there's still hope for the music world. Bravo group, BRAVO !!
