    Love the original song, but this puts an amazing jazz twist. I replayed probably about 10 times the first time I heard it.

      Essentially has a harmony and the “feel” of a traditional jazzy christmas carol. Its basically in the genre and speed they decided to go with for this rendition. Still a banger tho.

    Come with me, and you'll be
    In a world of pure imagination
    Take a look and you'll see
    Into your imagination
    We'll begin, with a spin
    Traveling in a world of my creation
    What we'll see will defy explanation
    And if you want to view paradise
    Simply look around and view it
    Anything you want to, do it
    Want to change the world?
    There's nothing to it
    There is no life I know
    To compare with pure imagination
    Living there, you'll be free
    If you truly wish to be
    And if you want to view paradise
    Simply look around and view it
    Anything you want to, do it
    Want to change the world?
    There's nothing to it
    There is no life I know
    To compare with pure imagination
    Living there, you'll be free
    If you truly wish to be

    I live this cover cause it's not like others much. Others find it pure and sadly like. This is more jazzy and classy, it has a tint of nostalgia and kid tones that I love. Now I miss the past, this cover is so nice

    • @catteadams
      @catteadams 8 лет назад +10

      +Captin Funk The reason you like this is because she is NOT singing it in a Jazz style whatsoever. A pop style, yes, but Jazz? No. The band is playing it in a stride tin pan alley fashion which in terms of instrumentation and most certainly the piano solo is early Jazz style, but more "pop of the day" formula of those 30's songs that sound much like this. Thus the tin pan alley comment..However the vocalist is singing in a straight up pop style and vocal style as well. Tho she is good. This treatment doesn't feel like much. But hey, she young, she has time to learn her craft. She has some nice skills to build upon already.

    I wish there could be a way to change songs with great emotion, into songs performed with emotion period.
    Here we have a peppy song, well played, and sung, no doubt.
    Great musicians.
    And I felt nothing.

    Was it really necessary to have piano and guitar comping so much, in the same range, at the same time?

    • @itmsjim
      @itmsjim 3 года назад

      Being there was no drummer, it worked fine. However, as with Oscar Peterson or Nat King Cole (p/g/b trios), the pianist should have filled more and let the guitarist do his thing. With that said, it worked. Plus, this was 6 years ago, so.....

    Stop Stop Stop.... OK you just can't swing this song. Nice performance, camera, voice, rhythm, etc etc etc... I even like the black and white, but just not the right setting. Now OK Ok Ok..... if you wanted to start out and totally do this to this wonderful song, fine... but then about 8 bars in you need to cut it over straight and change it back to a driving, flowing verison, then that would be REALLLLLYYYYYY cool. I can't see anyone else thinking to do that.
    BUT!!!!!!! Yi-Mei Templeman singing an 18 second clip in 5/4 time... you need to see that if you love music (and I know you all do, because nobody could pull this horrible rendition off with such talent and class unless you are a real music lover. I get that. I even subbed and thumbed up this nightmare arrangement. I hope you bought this and none of you came up with it, maybe a silver lining if that is true.
    Hope this was just a little funny :p But really check out that clip. I'm not affiliated at all with it. Hmmmmm, the snapping fingers was sort of cool. And you went completely straight at 2:24, about 2 minutes too late, but hey, you guys are great musicians and I'll look for more songs :) I even watched a few ads.
