My drums have been stacked in the basement for 10years - I haven't played in a band for over 20 years -- I'm going downstairs to set them up - Thanks Pomplamoose
FUCK YEAH!!!
They give us all musical boners. Gotta go to my basement too
when they go to half time around 2:50 it's magical... drummers delight
@@Pomplamoose Thanks all - The kit is set up and rocked out an hour session and loved every damn minute of it!! Much love! to you all
Tee Dawg reading these posts of yours made me so happy! Keep drumming!
A couple of days ago, at the age of 64, I discovered ELO's "Mr. Blue Sky" and tonight I discover Pomplamoose. It's been a very good week!!!
How are you 64 and never heard this song? I hear it everytime I turn on the radio. It's up there as one of my favorites. I guess, welcome to the hu-man race.
Sometimes in this amazing time maze one can pass by some awesome songs but hey just like old wine sometimes after the time where a song was popular, it becomes even better!
Well done! It's never too late. Now go and discover the Guardians of the Galaxy 2 opening scene with Baby Groot
@@Preview43 just the next logic step
Wow dude sup with that?I'm 58 and still have the cassette?I can't remember the 8 track 👣??
I’m no professional musician. I play music because it’s fun. It’s a rare treat to see musicians having fun while making great music. I’m just sorry it took me so long to find you guys.
My daughter was born just 4 days ago. This song reminds me of her everytime I look at her, it's enough to make a grown man cry. Thank you for this fantastic cover.
It's been 3 years since my daughter was born this was on the radio the moment the nurses put her in my arms and it throw's me back to that moment every time. :)
I held my daughter as a baby and danced around the living room as we listened to this song. She's 20 now and all grown up; but we had that perfect, perfect moment of utter happiness. I still tear up whenever I hear this song.
Nataly's laugh at 1:50 gets me every time.
I love that they kept that in the song. I'm so tired of overproduced music. This is a little bit of real life fun in a really fun song. It belongs!
@@djmiller232 yeah, same!! this is a very cool detail, glad they kept that
Michael Ames more like 1:51 ! I love it😻
Michael Ames just makes me so happy and smile
@@JIEON.C you do realize that most people "frame" their reference by adding a second or two so that when you click on the timestamp, you don't start at the exact point to listen. The second Michael Ames added sounds better than your instant start at the very beginning of her laugh. In other words, relax. No need to be so pedantic.
when you're so damn good at bass that your solo gives you an instant horse head
@tutiqt22 It was a shock.
Hahahaha this might be my favorite youtube comment. Thanks!
Nick Campbell is why I'm genuinely infuriated I live nowhere near a live show.
He's more mythical than that... a unicorn 🤣😜
Ferda, Ferda! (Letterkenney Lives!)
Does anyone else PHYSICALLY feel different when you see these folks having the grandest time together with music? I get goosebumps, I can't stop moving and it's hard not to smile. This is the kind of feel-good content everyone should have more of in their life. Love y'all and your work, I discovered this over a year ago and I still can't get over it. All the love from Texas ❤❤
your absolutely right there good also Love post modern jukebox and all feel good tunes like this its the way it should be great tunes in funk
Yeah I just stumbled in here I can't remember how or why, but so glad I did really something super awesome going on here like sunlight on the floor in the morning!
Yes, absolute magic here. Brings tears to my eyes.
Tears come to my eyes . My entire body shakes . I feel alive
Pomplamoose is THE BEST internet music discovery I’ve made. Your arrangements and performances are great but the positive energy and joy you deliver is endless! If you ever tour in the Midwest I’ll be there! THANKS for all you do.
Have a look at Hindley Street Country Club absolutely brilliant!! I think they'd be right up your alley if you like good musicians doing covers of popular/non popular songs!
I'm 8 months late but Jack Conte has a lot of bands in RUclips. You have to check Scary Pockets and Stories too!!!
Mike Lange *I think their success has alot to do with their feelings towards one another . They at least appear to reveal in one another's successes. Plus the one's who started it all appear to really like each other . Guess you call it love .Hopefully they aren't left :
Check out Scary Pockets
Wisconsin says ditto.
We were waiting for this song.
This cover made my day. Thanks 😘
for so long
Yes! Was just going to say this.
so long
Stumbled on it yesterday on Spotify and got so hyped for the vid release!!
I love how much fun they're clearly having while making this.
Well there was a scientific research project recently to find out what the happiest song ever recorded was and this song was the winner. You can't not be happy while listening to this!
The keyboard player is straight vibing the whole time.
@@cuppa1065 jack will forever be held as the happiest man on earth
This song is a twofer: Happiness and Joy!
@@otterbread8200
Great musician-check
Talented and smoking hot wife-check
250 million people giving at least a buck a month to a couple of million RUclipsrs and getting a cut of every dollar-check.
What’s not to be happy about?
The lyric "Hey you with the pretty face, welcome to the human race" was the first thing that popped into my head when I held my son for the first time. Today, almost three years later, I can't help but smile every time I hear that lyric, because it so perfectly captured the feeling of that very moment.
What a Hit! Everything is made of Light: The electromagnetic field, the fundamental substance from which everything else is made. And matter is just vortexes of light, and the entire universe is nothing else but the inexhaustible music of light. R. G.
My son Christopher passed away in his sleep on April 11th 2020 and each time I start getting to the point that I just can't hold it together I put this song on and it picks me up. It was one of his favorite songs along with your sweet child of mine. Your music means more than you'll ever know to me and my family. Thank you
im really sorry for your loss. your comment went right to my heart. i think this is what the internet was made for, connect
@@robertoduharte2502 Thank you so much.
I send you lots of love and peace 💗🌺💗🌺💗🌺💗
@@terracatta3197 Thank you so much. My son was very young and didn't have much time here with me but the time we shared I'm so greatful for.
I'm so sorry for your loss. It must be horrible to loose a child! 😢
This song is what joy sounds like.

@@clarahowson2911 I disagree, -
Temjen Jmr
Obviously not a nerdfighter then.
I hear joy with a hint of sadness
I love this, and when the band joins in at 3:07 it's a joyous thing!
even the cameraman joins in!!! it's so dope!
I have struggled with a lot of things my entire life but the last year has been especially difficult because of problems with my brother. Every time I hear this song the clouds part and the sun shines brightly for four minutes.
This feels like a good old-fashioned Pomplamoose cover.
Yeah it's much better than their Vulf-inspired bland funk sound
Fully agree this threw me right back to year one. Loved it
This song is just a musical smile.
I'm pretty sure you can't even sing it in style without smiling at least once
I wish I thought of the out. Absolutely agree.
Best comment I've heard in a year ---- a musical smile!
It'll never replace ELO's version as my favorite, but it'll happily be right by ELO's side, it's that great.
Exactly!
Sun is shinin' in the sky
There ain't a cloud in sight
It's stopped rainin' everybody's in the play
And don't you know
It's a beautiful new day, hey hey
Runnin' down the avenue
See how the sun shines brightly in the city
On the streets where once was pity
Mr. Blue Sky is living here today, hey hey
Mr. Blue Sky please tell us why
You had to hide away for so long (so long)
Where did we go wrong?
Mr. Blue Sky please tell us why
You had to hide away for so long (so long)
Where did we go wrong?
Hey you with the pretty face
Welcome to the human race
A celebration, Mr. Blue Sky's up there waitin'
And today is the day we've waited for
Oh Mr. Blue Sky please tell us why
You had to hide away for so long (so long)
Where did we go wrong?
Hey there Mr. Blue
We're so pleased to be with you
Look around see what you do
Everybody smiles at you
Hey there Mr. Blue
We're so pleased to be with you
Look around see what you do
Everybody smiles at you
Mr. Blue, you did it right
But soon comes Mr. Night creepin' over
Now his hand is on your shoulder
Never mind I'll remember you this
I'll remember you this way
Mr. Blue Sky please tell us why
You had to hide away for so long (so long)
Where did we go wrong?
Hey there Mr. Blue (sky)
We're so pleased to be with you (sky)
Look around see what you do (blue)
Everybody smiles at you
This is Wisconsin's state song (or should be) in winter.
It's impossible to have a bad time when watching Jack. 😄
Or Nataly, for that matter :)
When this popped up in my subs I thought, "You mean they hadn't done this one?" It just seemed right up your alley! 10/10 will listen to a thousand more times
I'd be honored if some Pomplamoose fans who appreciate classic 80s rock anthems would take a quick listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of EYE OF THE TIGER by Survivor, PURPLE RAIN by Prince, and AGAINST ALL ODDS by Phil Collins on my YT channel in tribute to the era of legendary power ballads. Live acoustic with no autotune. Thanks & keep on grooving.
I thought the exact same thing. The happiest band playing the happiest song ever made.
Was skeptical, as alot of remakes ain’t got it, then I listened. Very well done!!
The keyboarder in this band is by far my favorite. In every song is it living life and going hard. I love you man.
Jack Conte. Leader of the band, also the founder and CEO of Patreon.
He's also Nataly's (the lead singer) husband.
And just to remind you, in case you forgot, he is indeed the CEO of Patreon.
If you think the keyboarder is good then check out the drummist !
Did you know he is also the CEO of Patreon??
Nahneen's backups are clean and pure. She has a beautiful voice.
So glad this song won the Patreon vote!
Patrick
I love when her voice cracks almost laughing at minute 1:51 That's the cutest thing ever! I've heard the song many times and just got that!
Best part!!!!
Right?? After about 10 plays I just realized it today! What a great moment :) Performing with such spontaneous joy gives this performance magic.
I'm Groot!
I never noticed it until I saw your comment! I love it!
Ikr I’ve had that when singing before in a choir. It suddenly hits you just how amazing it all sounds and you can’t help yourself! Pure joy.
I'm 60 yrs old. This is my all-time favorite pop song! Brings back my teen years and my skateboarding team. Thank you!
Am 63, and this song brings me back to the teens as well when loved the E.L.O., played them on discotheques, to my girl, etc....sweet times!!!
Jacks face throughout the whole thing is too damn good. He has the best musician face I've ever seen.
3:59 Immediate 10* bonus points for actually doing the reprise which often gets cut off on the radio.
But marks knocked off from me, I'm afraid, for doing just repeat and fade instead of playing the outro to the end. A cop-out.
These actually were taken off at 1:06 for playing random nonsense instead of the solo.
As a life-long fan of the Electric Light Orchestra I must admit this cover does honor the original song and adds chearfull notes to it. It made me happy :-) Well done and thanks for this amazing song!
I'd be honored if some fans of the Pomplamoose organic style of covers would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of WHAT A FOOL BELIEVES by Michael McDonald and SEPTEMBER by Earth Wind & Fire on my YT channel in tribute to 2 late 70s classics. Live acoustic with no autotune or digital editing. Thanks and peace.
I highly recommend watching cover of this song by Postmodern Jukebox. It's completly different, but absolutely worth watching!
@@mariatargowska9441 well I like a lot of pmj stuff, but stripping the bouncy rock out of the song loses its appeal for me.
@@mariatargowska9441 Yes! I love PMJ's version of Mr. Blue Sky, right along side the original. They each have their own wonderful vibe, which I'm saying as an ELO fan of 45 years (since age 8). 💖☀️
I did not think anyone else could play this. BUT well these guys can and how
I was about 18 when this album dropped and it's still my fall-back, feel-good album. I usually don't like certain songs done as "covers", but you guys SO nailed this! Jeff should have knocked on your door to shake your hands!
I absolutely love how Nataly can manage to have her own style while being incredibly versatile. Pomplamoose is a pure blessing ❤
Having the camera guys sing was so in the spirit of this song, it all amounts to a wonderous cover!!!
We are long time patrons here of pomplamoose and nataly , ( dot x fan) but my first comment on youtube because the synchronicity of you putting up this song is too wonderful!! Jack, your new super patron concept has you in the roll of mr bluesky. You are living your best self and trying mightily to give back. Connecting with your purpose and you are beaming in your video explaining super patron. ( and i mean a different sort of beaming then your smiling faces in scary pockets... which dArn i love scary pockets too, btw)
The synch comes in double scoop because as soon as i saw it i sent the link to my son who we call mr. blue sky ( his name is sky) and this song has forever been our theme for him. Sky works night and day on creating original content and is a working visual artist. I dont know if he will be able to apply ( he currently is working on a twenty piece commission) but i guess the point is all the mr blueskys in this world are working overtime, and yeah, you will never meet... but i feel comforted in each of your corners you are brightening the days of your followers, jack with millions of, sky with dozens..Its all magical really!
Well said!
Nice catch on the singing cameramen.
Agreed, loved it!
oh my god i love it
edit: i dont usually "love" a song immediately but this is a special one
I love how well the drum kit is balanced. Perfect compression.
You guys have soooo much fun doing this ….captivating, talented , skilled, you deserve accolades 👏
I’m so excited to listen to this!!!!!!!
edit: I’m listening to this and loving it!!!!!!
edit: I’ve listened to this and loved it!!!!!!
But seriously, holy crap. This is a fun as hell cover. Great work as always!
+1 :)
3:04 - 3:30 Such camaraderie man. Makes me want to go start a band 😂
(Also this is the only way to sing this part of the song, face and all😆)
Hahahah, she looked like she wanted to start 2nd communist revolution in Russia! :D
I could watch this a thousand times and never grow tired of it! This is fantastic
the absolute joy that everyone is experiencing in this is just great
ME:
So, there's no way the happiest song in the world gets happier, right?
POMPLAMOOSE, all of 'em intellectuals:
HOLD MY BEER
hahaha :D
@@Pomplamoose *IPA
0:27 2/10, you didn't go "huh huh huh huh" after running down the avenue
jk 10/10 i love this to death
Seriously ruined it for me. That part is ESSENTIAL
Nailed the chorus, though.
@@Pieceofeasah damn right! though I added that in myself so now I feel like I am part of the band...:D
@@leighjohnson3720 Good call lol. Whenever I sing along I find acting like a panting dog really nails the sound
It could still be mixed in...
I remember when this song came out; I was 14 and it was the happiest, hookiest song I'd ever heard at the time. I can't imagine a more loving tribute to it than Pomplamoose achieved here.
Absolutely fabulous. They look like they're have such a good time too.
Her little laugh during the song is one of my favorite parts of this. This was a fantastic version of this song and very happy to be able to see this.
Dang this one turned out good. I’m definitely bringing the unicorn mask for all the live shows.
If it's really you Mr Campbell, I sincerely thank you for your talent and the awesome boost you bring to this lineup. You truly make these fantastic (Jack) arrangements, so much better than I could ever imagine. I'm a amateur guitarist and drummer and I don't usually pay much attention to the bass parts of a live music video. But when you're playing, the baseline is all I'm focused on. My previous searches on RUclips for other content from you has been fairly slim. But I will definitely be checking out your icon/ channel. A fan from New Zealand🤘 😎
Hahaha, yes it’s really me. Thanks so much man, I really appreciate it. I just starting putting out some of my own stuff a little bit ago, but I’ll be adding more!
@@NickCampbellDestroys awesome, thanks for responding! I checked out your channel and sub'd. If I gather from your comment that you'll be doing the live show tour with P'moose, then that's amazing!! I've followed them for ten years, please tell them New Zealand is ready and patiently waiting for a tour. I know it's a long way to come. But I'll hook you up with accommodation in Queenstown! Peace✌
You are nine kinds of awesome! And don't wear the mask. I like your stank face almost as much as Jack's.
I adore how you scrunch your nose to hit the right note. Vocals are hauntingly awesome. Band. You are killing it, I love how all of you look like you enjoy your job. Keep up the good work.
The joy in their faces when they perform.
Priceless.
Oh man, I loved that part where everyone started vocalizing too. It’s such a delight to watch you guys perform.
OMG YOU GUYS DID NOT COVER THIS SONG. MY FAVORITE OMG.
I'm much more coherent now and this is amazing. I love you guys.
This song has a frenetic energy just under the surface that makes it perfect for you guys to cover.
I can't get over the passion these people display every single video. It's contagious. I can't help but watch in awe and dance/sing as they play.
SO MANY people don't know about how amazing Jeff Lynne is. As successful as his career has been, he is absolutely one of the most singularly under appreciated and underrated producers and songwriters of all time. So brilliant. Great version.
Truly is ,well said ,I was thinking this when hearing this happy cover,just have to smile.
True. He made it look so easy, and that's why he's underrated.
I knew he was great, but when he was invited to be part of the Traveling Wilburys, man, that sealed the deal for me. I knew he was legend at that point.
this just got better and better.. i could feel the joy through the screen :")
Blimey, this is a really good rendition. The fun is exploding from the screen!
I absolutely love this song. One of my all-time favorites, and this is an excellent cover!
I live for a bass solo. And that one was amazing.
If you live for a bass solo, you must be a VERY patient person. :P
(I mean, even christmas comes once a year at least)
I just realized I was grinning ear to ear the entire time I was watching this. The 4th time I watched it...
pomplamoose songs are always like the epitome of production it's insane
The energy in this. Just...*sigh* absolutely amazing.
Question for Nick: will that unicorn mask be joining us on the road? And if so, do you have any sort of disinfecting/cleaning routine for it, or does it just get a little funkier with each solo? @NickCampbellDestroys (to witness his destruction live, GET TICKETS at pomplamoose.com )
That's why they call it a stank face.
Will Nahneen be joining you guys on tour with those lovely background vocals?
So it is not ACTUALLY Jeff Lynn under the mask?!
@@SiRushBass00
It must make Jeff Lynne very happy to see people emulating him in this way. It would make anyone proud to see people continuing to enjoy his work enough to perform it themselves.
YEEEAH !!! The guys get to sing !!! So much joy in everything you all do.
OMG..those vocals are audaciously magical!
star lord must be proud ✨
sooo goooood!!!!
You even included the TAG AT THE END! HOW GREAT IS THAT!!
!There is no end to the greatness of Jeff Lynne.
Another absolutely amazing recording session. Nataly is just a ray of sunshine when she sings❤Thank for brightening my day yet again with your wonderful talents
OMG. I love listening and watching you folks. So good.
I'm an 80's style guitar player and this band is one of my favorites. Just the way they do covers is amazing. Watching the joy as they play brightens up my day. I watch at least two or three of them daily.
This song is my all time favorite song!
And you make it even better! How dare you!
Love this so much!
Discovered this group 2 weeks ago and have absolutely loved everything I've seen them do since then, especially the French songs: Natalie's voice is fabulous.
Man, they are all smiling, it's incredible so awesome !
I love the vibe you guys have while recording. Makes me wanna be in the room with you, looks so fun
You don't know how long I've been waiting for this!!!! Just cool!
58 year old still loving ELO .. 😊
GREAT TUNE 🎉🎉🎉👍
The smiles of all you guys in the beginning kicked me out of my corona missery. A bunch of passionate people making music together. A joy to watch.
The psychedelia of that outro was overwhelmingly, ridiculously, amazingly great. I love the slight departure the whole cover took from other Pomplamoose tracks. The versatility is great. Just a monster performance.
It’s like these covers are like a “your favorites”- mix from a streaming provider
i love how happy you guys look when playing this song, beautiful cover!
Keep coming back to this, puts a great smile on my face! thanks.
These people are filled with such joy and it's absolutely infectious
My favourite 2019 discovery covering my favourite band. That's awesome.
This song gave nothing but smiles on both song and video. This is quality awsome. Thank you.
I need this to be my alarm in the morning during these trying times. I smile during the entire song.
I always enjoy watching Jack having so much fun in these videos.
One of my favourite songs covered by my favourite musicians 😭 perfection!!!
one of the best covers of ELO I'v ever heard. and I am a big ELO Fan.
These folks look like they're having such a great time! This performance is really truly wonderful.
OH MY GOD, this is just perfect 👌 this has really the positivity in it and it makes my day better thank you for this masterpiece ❤️
My new favorite band has the 3 "E's" -Energy, editing and ecstatic!
I love this version SO much. It just makes you happy. What more can music do for anyone? Thanks for your work.
If I could just have 5 minutes a day feeling the excitement that Jack shows playing that keyboard, my life would be just so much better.
Love you guys, thank you for sharing your amazing talents
I love the music, but really I come to see the sheer joy on Jack’s face
Oh My God! That was beautiful! Nataly, you look like you are having an absolute ball singing this. Jack, you look like Hulk not trying to smash the keyboard...and you all did a most excellent job with one of my favorite songs of all time...Thank you all for giving us this masterpiece!
The best cover i've heard of that song so far!
Extraordinary punchy !!! So fun, so fresh, thank you Pomplamoose & all . !!!!
This is my favorite song right now
This is one of those songs you don't listen just one time when they're on. I'm pretty sure it's even illegal not to listen to it more than one, two, or three times in a row each take.
Wow these guys and Natalie love what they're doing. Life doesn't get much better than that. It's infectious.
Perfect! Wonderful sound, wonderful video, smiles and joy of the musicians charge you with energy!
