    Hall and Oates - I Can't Go For That - Cover by Nicki Bluhm and The Gramblers - Van Session 17 (Performed between Phoenix, AZ and Pioneertown, CA).
    About the "Van Sessions": Nicki Bluhm & The Gramblers are a rock/country/soul band from San Francisco with a busy touring schedule. Between gigs they pass the time by playing cover songs in their van, recording them with an iPhone and posting them online for fun. They do, indeed, wear their seatbelts. For more about the band's original music check out nickibluhm.com, iTunes, or any RUclips video not set in a van, or just come to a show the next time they drive to your town!

      It hasn't quite succeeded, but autotune has inadvertently tried to kill music. I'd hate it anyway, but it's mission is transparent.

      +WeAreN1nja When they used to post the comments as they were made, I kept count (sic) - and. of all the aspect of the video, the kazoo had received the most positive comments (upwards of 200 as of a little more than a year ago).

      +Robin Hill I just watched this for the first time and the one thing that stuck out the most to me, besides her great voice was the fact that I've never heard a kazoo sound like a sax before.. amazing.

      +Lance What stood out the most to me was the harmonies - when Tim and Dave chimed in with the harmonies, I thought heaven would be being a hitchhiker and getting picked up by these peop[e. The kazoo just put it way over the top - but again, there are more positive comments about the kazoo than about anything else.
