Slowing down the song to make the rapping section singable in this style was ingenious.
si posta me costo un huevo sacar el rap de oido en la original y despues q me la aprendo encuentro esto y me queria pegar un tiro
checked
accelerating the song at 1.25 brings back the rap style and it's still rad
Thanks for the idea, it sounds pretty great at 1.25
Young sir please stop with the caps and calm down. Your rant is uncalled for and quite uncivilised, you are just annoying.
She just looks like shes having so much fun. Her voice is so amazing and smooth. She nailed the rap and made it sound amazing without it sounding too loud, And the background instrumental of the song is beautiful! Bravo
There's one part she missed 😥😥
I thought it was fantastic and then I noticed that she skipped the part in parentheses
"Every sproutin tree,
every child apiece
(every cloud you see),
you see with your eyes"
This was at 2:27...
Njvader hey at least its one
If she can make this work as a Jazz Cover, she can do anything.
She can do anything.
Look up some of her other Postmodern Jukebox songs. She CAN do anything.
I mean she has also jazzified System of a Down songs. That takes a lot of talent

👍💯
id like to see "scrape" by Blue Stahli
Makes me want to steal a time machine and play this somewhere in 1940s New Orleans
Right!
tooootally
Technically it's impossible
That’s one of the things I would do if I had a time machine
Oh yeah.

I was wondering how Del's rap from the original song would translate into this...
Caleb Jaaniste I wish she could change the tone of her voice for the rap section....
Here voice tone is kinda a one trick wonder, it'd be nice to hear some different tonal styles.
she should have started scatting would've been interesting
Or, or, or have 2 singers; one for Del's verses and another for the chorus.
TheMTrider16
Not really.
Caleb Jaaniste really well it turned out
"So do you want Jazz or Rap?"
Robyn: Yes
I prefer jazz
@@carloscorona2461 Ya like jazz?
actually Jazz or Rap or Rock
Rap
Rock is the best
Imagine singing ,,i aint happy" actually looking like the happiest human being on the planet
I am useless 😆
@@unicornpugs6153Robyn can literally take a cover, set it any genre, and prove that she understands the assignment. She is the opposite of useless and it adds to the hilarity
@@Orcaluv26 I agree I meant that she smiled while saying I am useless
I relate to the drummer on a spiritual level
Nrvse the drummer is my spirit animal
Oh my god
Nrvse i relate to the trombone guy he just looks like he has no soul
Same
Nrvse Hes doing Gods work
As a big gorillaz fan, this cover is fucking genius and a great tribute to the band. Thank you!!!
crashcroft tbh I wish they kept the background melody and drums, because swing doesn't really fit the song (jazz can be other time signatures)
+ crashcroft
Nah, imo, Gorillaz songs shouldn't be covered, esp. not in this style. Remixes maybe.
Have to agree with Peter Silie.
Although the singing and band are great in this video...I feel it misses everything that makes a gorillaz song a gorillaz song.
It's just not fit to be covered.
I'm a huge gorillaz fan myself as well, I wish I liked this, but can't say I do.
I have no problem with gorillaz being covered. And they are talented musicians no doubt.
But it seems like the only thing that remained the same is the lyrics.
It's like a swing song with gorillaz lyrics. Would be much better if the actual song was still there. IMO.
Jay Adams It seems like they do that a lot though. Just regular swing music with whatever song lyrics. Which is ok but part of the song is missing.
Hearing you drop F-bombs in such an upbeat style makes me feel unnerved, but in a happy way
The Horse Outside me tio
Me too
She tends to pick the songs with f-bombs too. It's her little slice of defiance
And feeling glad?
*LYRICS*
I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad
I got sunshine in a bag
I'm useless but not for long
The future is coming on
I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad
I got sunshine in a bag
I'm useless but not for long
The future is coming on
It's coming on, it's coming on
It's coming on, it's coming on
Finally someone let me out of my cage
Now time for me is nothin' 'cos I'm counting no age
Now I couldn't be there now you shouldn't be scared
I'm good at repairs and I'm under each snare
Intangible (Ah y'all), bet you didn't think so
I command you to, panoramic view (You)
Look I'll make it all manageable
Pick and choose, sit and lose
All you different crews
Chicks and dudes, who you think is really kicking tunes
Picture you getting down and I'll picture too
Like you lit the fuse
You think it's fictional, mystical - maybe
Spiritual hero who appears on you to clear your view
When you're too crazy
Lifeless to those a definition for what life is
Priceless to you because I put ya on the hype shift
Did ya like it?
Gut smokin' righteous but one talkin' psychic
Among knows possess you with one though
I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad
I got sunshine in a bag
I'm useless but not for long
The future is coming on
I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad
I got sunshine in a bag
I'm useless but not for long
The future (That's right) is coming on
It's coming on, it's coming on, it's coming on, it's coming on
The essence, the basics without it you make it
Allow me to make this child like in nature
Rhythm you have it or you don't
That's a fallacy, I'm in them
Every spiralling tree, every child of peace
Every cloud I see you see with your eyes
I see destruction and demise
Corruption in the skies
From this fucking enterprise that I'm sucked into your lies
The Russell that is muscles
But percussion he provides
For me I say God, y'all can see me now
'Cos you don't see with your eye
You perceive with your mind
That's the end of it
So I'mma stick around with Russ and be a mentor
Bust a few rounds on motherfuckers
Remember what the thought is
I brought all this so you can survive when law is lawless (Right here)
Fearless, sensations that you thought was dead
No squealing, *_remember that it's all in your head_*
I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad
I got sunshine in a bag
I'm useless but not for long
The future is coming on
I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad
I got sunshine in a bag
I'm useless but not for long
My future is coming on
It's coming on, it's coming on, it's coming on, it's coming on
My future
It's coming on, it's coming on, it's coming on
It's coming on, it's coming on, my future
It's coming on, it's coming on, it's coming on
It's coming on, it's coming on, my future
It's coming on, it's coming on, it's coming on
My future
It's coming on, it's coming on, it's coming on
My future
It's coming on, it's coming on, it's coming on
My future
A few of the lyrics are wrong

Eh. Honestly not a big fan of it myself.
Normally, I would say Gorillaz should never be covered. But this was a fucking masterpiece. She absolutely *nailed* Del's rap.
Doogy but you gotta admit no one can do it like gorillaz
I've heard plenty of great Gorillaz covers.
Well, except for all he lines that got dropped... and the odd cadence that caused the lyrics to break in werid places so the meaning was lost... but sure, she said most of the words...
What lyrics did she miss? none of the rap for sure. Gaps are inevitable when you translate rap into anything else.
There are at least three dropped lines
This could of been a huge hit in the 40's.
Just like how the original became a huge hit? 🤦🏻♂️
@@POTFULLOFGREENYes.
Honestly this is probably my favorite cover they’ve ever done- THE RAP FLOWS SO GOOD!!
I like the fact that the lyrics are unsanitized.
Saintnick90 it was kind of odd hearing fuck from a big band, though
Go listen to "walk right in, Walk right out.
Saintnick90 disagree big time. takes away a lot of the class.
lol thats kinda the point you can even tell from the outfits in their videos, for example converses with back trousers and vest. beaten up fedora with black collar shirt etc. I like the style tbh :)
The bass girl is like "Hell yeah Ya' tell'em girl"
Izachoi ooomggg yeeeaaa
Izachoi murdoc= RACIST bassist?
Izachoi what bass ?
Hatsune miku :'v :3 The girl behind the piano is playing bass.
Hatsune miku :'v :3 Stand up Bass! They have an awesome thick,smooth, sultry, sound that actually rumbles harder than an electric Bass in many cases and bloody fun to play!!
I LOVE seeing musicians my age embracing old styles of music, and this era is especially great to emulate. My _only_ criticism of this recording is that I'd like to hear the bass (the instrument). However, it's obvious the producer was going for the 40s style sound where you simply didn't hear anything below the midrange. Considering that it seems he used all modern equipment to record this, he nailed it. Excellent job done by all.
@@fftheblueskys Before I say anything else, I just want to say I'm not trying to sound like a know-it-all. Although I mostly play percussion, I own and play upright/double basses. Also, I have a soft spot for early and big band jazz -- where all low end frequencies can't be heard very well -- so I know the point you're you're saying. It's here, but it's soft. Actually, it's quite funny that I made that comment, because I often find myself complaining (mostly to myself) about there being too much bass in modern music. Anyways, in this context with so much modern equipment, it seems like having a bit more volume on the bass wouldn't hurt, especially for _THIS_ tune, since the original is so bass-heavy.
I feel that the fact all the bass is on the left channel adds to this problem. If it were more centered between the two channels, there probably would be no need to make it louder.
I can't help but love how everyone is really excited and energetic and the drummer is just vibing
also watching this in 0.75x is just amazing (the rap part not that much but is still pretty good)
I really hope the 2020's make this a thing so we can go back to the roaring 20's
Great arrangement, by the way
Rodolfo Ramirez It's already a thing, it's called electro swing
Pokemario Fan electro swing emphasises more on the electronic aspect as apposed to these Jukebox covers.
Still doesn't mean they aren't paying tribute to those songs
Rodolfo Ramirez or the Swingin 30's
Wow, a jazzified version of Clint Eastwood? and it sounds great? I love the Internet.

Victor Gee I dont think that this os jazz more like Swing but I dont know Im not a (totally) music nerd

Holy shit that voice, so strong yet clear and extremely well controlled
Before clicking: "Ok, IDK about this one guys..."
1:45 : Oh. Okay. My apologies. Carry on.
I'm surprised how well Del's rap works in a 1940's style cover.
His raps have a jazzy style, so it doesn't rlly surprise me. I hope they do a cover of Rock The House
PaX That would (pardon the pun) rock. The intro sample would fit very well, and the lyrics flow well.
RobotSnake Jazz is the father of hip hop
Jeremy Daly
Is swing the mother?
I'd think funk would be in there somewhere
This is why I love the internet.
TheMonking406 it's a hate love relationship.
true
yet somehow we end up stumbling on nugget porn. rough roller coaster.
700th like ;_;
This is why I love music
This style actually suits SUPER well to the song!
I have no clue who is responsible for converting the tempo or timing of the music and lyrics, but another shoutout to the pianist who did fantastic (not an insult to the other instrumentalist, just a huge fan of the piano) and a huge compliment to the conversion of the period of the song. It was beautiful, and I thank all involved for this art :)
That was phenomenal
WHO ELSE WANTS TO SEE FEEL GOOD INC?
I feel like that wouldn't work lol

This song bounces. Don't ask me what that means, I don't know, but it does.
Tyler Hobbs hey tarkus what's up
Tyler Hobbs there's a mathematical reason why. but that's how swing works. the melody follows the beat on 2 and 4 as opposed to the first and third bears of each bar which isn't typical so it sounds novel to the ear
Tyler Hobbs I get what you mean XD
Tyler Hobbs this song also swooshes. Don't ask me what that means, I don't know, but it does.
can you guys do feel good Inc.?
I don't feel it. I don't feel it. I don't feel it. I FEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEL ITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT.
YEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSS
just imagine that Every Planet is Dead in this format, oh god...
I want to hear it too.Please!!!!!!!
:)
Ramon Lopez yeah I love that song
The probability of someone delivering Del's lines in a way that I will like as well as Del is impossibly remote. And yet, here we are.
Seems like I’m seeing this about 3 years too late... this song is perfect with this jazz style. So original. So well performed. I’m 99% sure Gorrilaz traveled back in time to release this first.
This was the single greatest thing I've ever witnessed
Rad Bradley they got so many others !!!!!!!!! post modern juke box!!!

they should play this everywhere
Gorillaz and jazz don't fit in the same sentence
But y'all killed it

This isn't jazz.
nack287 yah like jazz
They rhyme.
I don't think it's jazz
But you just fit them in the same sentence.
Gorillaz is any genre... They don't have a specific genre.
This has to be one of the all time best, and that's saying something

Who's listening to this while chasing those great khan cunts for stealing your shit.
The intro was really blowing! Especially on the part “the future” where the fifth is movin (007 style). Loved it!
this is deadass my fav video on youtube
This is a beautiful Cover but I still have to love the original better.
Breaking down the original's reggae base back into it's distant Jazz roots is brilliant. It fits really well. The problem is that the Rap breakdown was sang in the same style as the rest of the piece.
IMO this would be better done as a duet, where the other signer doing the "Rap breakdown" sings at a lower register.
The Gorillaz is a theatrical concept almost more than a musical one. The Rap breakdown (Russell) is supposed to be an empowering defiant voice against the lead singer's (Stewart 2D pots) pessimism and acceptance of a world gone rotten.
Dan R.
Wow you should write reviews for a living. Seriously. You might actually be able to do it as a career
Guy, you really nail that one, do you write reviews for living? you should!
Quick correction: the rap breakdown is done by Del Tha Funky Ghost, not Russel.

When does this woman breathe?? Whenever I try to sing along I run out of breath QvQ hopefully someday I'll get propper vocal training lolololol
I'm think when she say "I'm happy'" dat d tym she breathes
No one will never know 🤔
You can hear her breathing constantly haha, as a singer you just have to learn when you have space to breathe. Also, the sound of her doing so is likely edited out, its a common trick in vocal mixing.
Kageyama-kun!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I loved that scene
Just find a good space to take a super quick, deep breath and carry on.
I want this with a perfect studio mix, still holds up as a perfect cover.
This song came out in my teen years and hearing this cover just catapulted me back to the 90s, only in black and white this time.

Through Russel, not from his muscles
Percussion he provides, as the guide
Y'all can see me now, ‘cause you don't see with your eye
You perceive with your mind; that's the inner
So I'mma stick around with Russ and be a mentor
Bust a few rhymes so motherfuckers remember
Where the thought is, I brought all this

You perceive with your mind; that's the inner
So I'ma stick around with Russ and be a mentor
Bust a few rhymes so motherfuckers remember
Where the thought is, I brought all this
So you can survive when law is lawless
Feelings, sensations that you thought was dead
No squealing, remember that it's all in your head
I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad
I got sunshine in a bag
and I'm useless, but not for long
The future is coming on
I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad
I got sunshine in a bag
and I'm useless, but not for long
The future is coming on
It's coming on, it's coming on It's coming on, it's coming on
my future It's coming on, it's coming on
It's coming on…
thx for the lyrics but you did a mistake (i know it because i know the entire lyrics of the original)
it's: "The essence, the basics, without d̲i̲d̲ ̲y̲o̲u̲ ̲m̲a̲k̲e̲ ̲i̲t̲?"
kaz muk thank you for helping me
what can i say except: you're welcome? ( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡°)
What a bullshit is going on
frisk 323 thanks very useful
now I wanna listen to the original version.
John Kokujin the original song with Damon Albarns singing aka: 2D stuart pot, is sooo much better. this is okay but idk it isn't right. and then the rapping part where Del comes out of Russel on this version doesn't sound right to me at all.
It's timed very very differently, I can understand how she arranged it but it's not the same at all. Like first listen through, the parts I knew the lyrics to I could sing along with her timing predictably before middle of the song, but it's very very different from the original song.
To be honest, I appreciate the hell out of what they did with it, because they did something TOTALLY different.
This is the most proper way to make a tone about saying 'i ain't happy' phrase in clint Eastwood gorillaz, not deeply gloomy but yet not arrogant. And it is classy
I didn't know I needed to hear this. It's an awesome cover, thanks for making it !
In all honesty, of all the Gorillaz songs, Clint Eastwood was the best option for a jazz cover. The original beat translates well to a jazz beat with its laid-back feel. Awesome cover!
Never thought I needed something so much untill I received it.
The best cover that I've saw ever.
Congratulations, I loved this jazz version.
So great Robyn Adele is getting out there with her music. The musicians are great with a special kudo for Georgia Weber who is an excellent bassist.
And now I want to draw a Gatsby Gorillaz au.
Tessa Claborn did you? Because I would like to see that
Tumblr better get on that.
Please do that!
Do it. If I could draw,I’d help. But I’ll be ready to cheer you on!

Murdoc would basically that one part of the book were the author compares how big his dong is to another author
I want to marry this woman!
we all want.
So let us drink to the fact that our desires coincide with our opportunities. ;)

well said indeed.
Get in the line, my friend
Wow, this is fantastic! Can honestly picture listening to this on the radio/record player while doing the chores or hosting a gathering in a small house in London, or going to the theatre to hear this!
Fantastic
I remember my great grandad telling a story about coming home from Germany and heading to an old speakeasy on fifth street. It was booming with the beautiful jazzy sounds of the 40’s at the time this song was playing. It was Robyn Murdoc and the gorillaz gang. He told me after hearing it only once. The dulcet tones. The jumpy melody the swing of it all, he fell in love. I wish we still had the record but showing him this video brought tears to his eyes as he remembered better times in his life.
This was...random but, all the same, you Ma'am, have earned a Subscriber! Beautifully done!
I agree
2 subscribers
Stephen Smith Make that three.
same here , this isjust too good
random? Did you know there is a channel doing covers like this for a few years now, it featured Robyn many times in the past. It's called Post Modern Jukebox and it's one of the most incredible things you can subscribe to on youtube.
Filip Daněk So I did, but they ain't swingin' quite my way. This is much better for Lindy hoppin' :)
I thought this was gonna be awesome, but the only aspect that made this worth my while is that fine bassist back there.
I never thought I could like a cover more than the original clint estwood, yet here we are
How can anyone hear this and not immediately love Robyn?
Gorillaz need to see this
the drummer in the back isn't having fun
He's too busy enjoying the view, but that should maybe make him happy x)
alefaen Mmmmmmmm
haseo737 He's feeling glad
when you think about it, it makes him seem more like how rus was in the earlier days of Gorillaz' live shows. look up a couple of live shows during phases 1 and 2, is face is just -_-
"I ain't happy."
1:10 - bassist and drummer can't help cracking a smile :D
Sorta reminds ya of the intro to the Fairly Odd Parents. “I Ain’t... HAppy, I’m feeling glad”
So good.
Everyone performed so well. The trumpetist was’t too loud, trombone blended well, the drummer wasn’t too invasive (fit the music), the singer had incredible timber and pitch, the pianist doesn’t need me to tell him how he rocks, and the bassist absolutely destroyed it on that walking bass line - seriously bravo. The bassist is so good- don’t afraid to be louder!!
