We don’t talk about her placing third because that was BULLSHIT! I literallly boycotted AI after that season cause she should won hands down. Jordan, Lakisha, and Melinda shoulda been in the top 3 that year was ridiculous

@@radioactiveferrets specially if english is not your first language and understanding songs gets a bit too much difficult because the music and the way that sometimes they drag the letter hahaha
Just imagine stealthily stealing a gold and diamond necklace from a museum in the middle of the night, but also having some kind of affair mixed in the background of it all. That’s what this song feels like.
What is my perfect crime? I break into Tiffany's at midnight. Do I go for the vault? No, I go for the chandelier. It's priceless. As I'm taking it down, a woman catches me. She tells me to stop. It's her father's business. She's Tiffany. I say no. We make love all night. In the morning the cops come and I escape in one of their uniforms. I tell her to meet me in Mexico but I go to Canada. I don't trust her. Besides, I like the cold. Thirty years later, I get a postcard. I have a son and he's the chief of police. This is where the story gets interesting: I tell Tiffany to meet me in Paris, by the Trocadero. She's been waiting for me all these years; she's never taken another lover. I don't care, I don't show up. I go to Berlin. That's where I stashed the chandelier. - dwight schrute, the office
Her vibrato is so consistent, very beautiful, soulful, and powerful voice. She gives me neo-soul, ledisi vibes and technique with a Jill Scott garnish. I would like to hear Ledisi do this arrangement. This video is amazing, A+!!!
Lol, I'm glad I'm not the only one who's still salty about that. I pretty much stopped watching AI after that season. Just couldn't take it seriously anymore.
American Idol is a joke. Haley Reinhart didn't win her season as well. Haley. If you don't know who I'm talking about, look up the perfomances she did with this channel, post modern jukebox. And look up her American Idol perfomances, too. That woman's got such a powerful voice, she's got some talent. But people in the music industry no longer care about talent. :(
Everything about this is just...wow. Melinda's voice (and dress is so pretty!) the arrangement, the 40s femme fatal feel. This is truly one for the ages!
True. But only because the song was not garbage in the first place. The lyrics finally had a chance to stood out for themselves and the band made them stand out. With the original pop version, so much potential of this song was buried, but the producers wanted it like that. We can consider ourselves lucky to have witnessed THIS OUTSTANDING version of the song. I would like to know what Britney thinks of the arrangement itself as well as the performance of Melinda. I really love this version, while being indifferent to the original.

Man I fucking LOVE 30’s and 50’s style music, it can be so powerful and soothing at the same time, it comes in so much variety it’s just- it’s INCREDIBLE how music was during those years, I hope we can bring it back like we’re doing for fashion
This is one of their better covers. Not that the talent is never there, but just that the singer and or the composition dont fit the era or style they're trying for. This one is perfect. You could put a filter on this and not know the difference
Thank you, thought i was the only one. I feel after 2014 the quality in the singers they pick for covers really slipped. Now most of the time its so so. But every once in a while they really nail it.
Morgan Douglas Same with Oops I Did It Again, Seven Nation Army and Creep. The brilliant PMJ arrangements with Haley's superb vocals completely transform the songs, the originals of which I didna like.
Seguro seré el único que comenta en español pero sigo anonadado con la voz de esta mujer. Es tan limpia y perfecta, realmente le da sentido a cualquier canción y me hace viajar a los 40's
Imagine this: it starts out a James bond movie, but when bond get's held up my an important lady, his supposed love interests has to preform the heist alone. Not using her charm to fool the guards, but exuding so much confidence she just walks by them. This song plays and cuts between her putting on perfect black gloves and taking the valuable item and the woman bond is with leading him onto the dance floor in a wood brown and gold room full of socialites in headresses. All bisexuals die immediately.
Yeah. I’m trying to work out why it’s so effective. I think because it’s not as predictable. The singer is caught between submitting to the forward march of the music and losing her capacity to submit to it.
@@laurahoughton1289 Could it just possibly partly due to the fact that Melinda Doolittle has a far better voice, and is a far superior singer to Britney? Then there is also the PMJ arrangement which is far more varied than Britney's, and there's such a good match between voice and instrumental backing arrangement? In other words, it's far better if you think consider sheer musicality.

Notice me Senpai That'd fuck up the whole music timeline, creating a paradox. Discounting the fact that, if time travel were indeed possible, humans would not be able to pass through time.
This video needs smoke and cigarettes and cigars and women in long gowns with feather boas and men and zoot suits. I need to have a 20s 30s or 40s feel and vibe. That matches the song and her voice the Slowdown sultry silky version
Yes, Melinda! You neeeeed to do some more songs with her. I'd absolutely *love* to see a Haley Reinhart/Melinda Doolittle duet/face-off/whatever. Those two voices in one song would be legendary!
A voice like an after sex cigarette... reduces your ability to perform, you take it knowing it is likely going to be directly responsible for you never seeing your grandchildren, it's becoming increasingly expensive as the government tries to stop you using It, and makes your breath stink. And kills your partner through second hand inhalation.
I've been wanting to hear a song from this genre for a long time; you folks just made my day. And Melinda Doolittle just nailed this song. Two thumbs up! :-)
ms doolittle completely blew me away with her voice. as soon as she started singing i was captivated by the sound and song. so thankful i clicked on this video
Chills everywhere! The more I hear this the more I love it 😍😍 How she just holds back, and holds back the BAM!!! This is my new favourite PMJ arrangement I think x
I didn’t think it was possible for any version of this song to sound better than the original, but you proved me wrong when you sang the very first few notes!
Melinda Doolittle covering a Britney Spears song and making it sound like GOLD! Much better than the original. Absolutely LOVE IT! Love the vocals and I love those horns back there! Awesome job.. Just discovered you guys recently and love every song you perform.
Not really. This version is sexy and the vocals are brilliant but its not particularly original. The actual song with all its quirky strings is standout
@@obsidian8180 If you like thudding drums, strange distortion and other Dance features. Were these features particularly original to Britney's version or were they common features of that time and genre? You could well argue that it shows quite a lot of originality on the part of both PMJ and Melinda to take a track like Britney's Toxic and completely transform it, both the backing and the vocals. The PMJ version of Radiohead's Creep sung by Haley Reinhart is probably the best-known and most popular of them all. She also sings Britney's Oops I Did It Again with them.
I just saw Charles Cornell's latest video. It's an analysis of Toxic, and somehow it led me to you guys. You've done so many great things, you're mindblowingly cool!
Omg I just met her today at my school! She performed for us at Midland Valley high and sung Home from the Wiz and this song and it was so magical. Felt like I was floating out of my seat! Thank you so much for performing for us Melinda!!! Youve inspired ❤💞💓💓

This song makes me want to steal a billion-dollar diamond necklace at a museum in broad daylight and walk out like nothing happened.
This is most likely a reference of something I don't get
That's weirdly specific, but same.

Didn't realize that this song is actually pretty great lyrically before hearing this

Notice me Senpai I mean, they might, but chances are any songs we introduce would be forgotten, like the majority of songs from any time period
Phil Lester you're a genius
Jamie Metcalfe you must be fun at parties
*imagine ?
This is legit one of the best covers on this channel. What a voice
Her stage presence is phenomenal!
What a voice, she told a story, she sang the damn thing!!! 😍😍😍
Wow, I've gone over half my life without knowing the actual lyrics to toxic, and just assuming a lot of it was sexy gibberish. Thank you!
chrisserrific the lyrics are so simple how can you not know the lyrics?💀
Dude I’m Spanish and I’ve always known what Britney was saying. y’all only listen to the beat and turn off the vocal part of the songs or what? 😂
So you never heard the song before? How do you assume lyrics lol
Love her voice. The girl can sing. What a ride. Simply Beautiful.
This video needs smoke and cigarettes and cigars and women in long gowns with feather boas and men and zoot suits. I need to have a 20s 30s or 40s feel and vibe. That matches the song and her voice the Slowdown sultry silky version
She sounds like Amy Winehouse + Etta James. Such a powerful voice.
Don’t insult her with amy winehouse comparison. Winehouse was NEVER this good.
Not even a little bit. She sounds absolutely nothing like either. You know its possible to compliment artists without comparing them right?
@@ILoveMyOrchids oh sweetie you poor thing. I have always had a soft spot for you tone deafs :(
@@ILoveMyOrchids I hope that's a joke because any serious agreement with your statement is bullshit
her voice makes me so flustered AGHHH SO SEDUCTIVEEE I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS VERSIONNNN
the tonality of her voice is soo beautiful I don't know how else to describe it
Yes, Melinda! You neeeeed to do some more songs with her.
I'd absolutely *love* to see a Haley Reinhart/Melinda Doolittle duet/face-off/whatever. Those two voices in one song would be legendary!
The arrangement is insanely good!
A voice like an after-sex cigarette... smooth, smoky, and makes you want some more.
Dragonivon Wow....beautiful simile
this is one of the best metaphoric describtions I heard in a long time. Nice!
okay
A voice like an after sex cigarette... reduces your ability to perform, you take it knowing it is likely going to be directly responsible for you never seeing your grandchildren, it's becoming increasingly expensive as the government tries to stop you using It, and makes your breath stink. And kills your partner through second hand inhalation.
Dragonivon you sound like you’ve had an interesting story
I've been wanting to hear a song from this genre for a long time; you folks just made my day. And Melinda Doolittle just nailed this song. Two thumbs up! :-)
I had to really turn up the volume so I could fully appreciate ALL the nuances of her voice!
SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO FABULOUS!
she's just perfect omg
ms doolittle completely blew me away with her voice. as soon as she started singing i was captivated by the sound and song. so thankful i clicked on this video
First I saw the dress, then I heard the voice, then I saw the shoes.(WOW)
And then the voice covered everything, how wonderful it is! Thank you
Omg, the chorus! I raised my eyebrow and mouthed "Wooooooow!" I love how she owned this song! Whew! *fans self*
Nossa... Essa cantora está simplesmente INCRÍVEL!
Her voice is unbelievable. Love everything bout this
Chills everywhere! The more I hear this the more I love it 😍😍 How she just holds back, and holds back the BAM!!! This is my new favourite PMJ arrangement I think x
'then BAM'
I love Melinda I always wondered what she was up to. PMJ does love those Idol alum.
Rachel check out her website she's about to go on tour.
I didn’t think it was possible for any version of this song to sound better than the original, but you proved me wrong when you sang the very first few notes!
I love that cover! An awesome PMJ debut, one of my favorite PMJ cover!
When i was searching for EXACTLY like these kind of songs, where was youtube, seriously, i love this so much
i love how they're all just feeling the music
OMG! This is the best version I've ever heard and her voice is perfect! Just amazing!
How did I not hear this until today?! July 2023! It's fantastic 💛✨
speechless from this arrangement. gooebumps too. blown away by this artistry, the flair, the talent.
Melinda Doolittle covering a Britney Spears song and making it sound like GOLD! Much better than the original. Absolutely LOVE IT! Love the vocals and I love those horns back there! Awesome job.. Just discovered you guys recently and love every song you perform.
Not really. This version is sexy and the vocals are brilliant but its not particularly original. The actual song with all its quirky strings is standout
@@obsidian8180
If you like thudding drums, strange distortion and other Dance features. Were these features particularly original to Britney's version or were they common features of that time and genre? You could well argue that it shows quite a lot of originality on the part of both PMJ and Melinda to take a track like Britney's Toxic and completely transform it, both the backing and the vocals. The PMJ version of Radiohead's Creep sung by Haley Reinhart is probably the best-known and most popular of them all. She also sings Britney's Oops I Did It Again with them.
@@obsidian8180 : that's my opinion and I'm sticking to it!
I just saw Charles Cornell's latest video. It's an analysis of Toxic, and somehow it led me to you guys. You've done so many great things, you're mindblowingly cool!
Same
Me too!
Same
me too
Saaaaame
Her voice is heavenly! She has such good control too, omg I could listen to her sing forever. And the musicians gave me chills.
PMJ is like the new home for American Idol alumni or something
With your avatar this sounds so _deliciously_ naughty. Rrrrrr
i know! and I love it!! nice to see alums doing something great!
It's groovy baby yeah.
There are a couple off the last couple of seasons of The Voice that would be phenomenal with PMJ. India Carney is one.
mslpfanatik India could and would own something on PMJ! Gospel cover of ANYTHING!
This is absolutely jamming and her voice is immaculate
Gawd her voice!! Out of this world!
She's beautiful and her voice is WOW
Omg I just met her today at my school! She performed for us at Midland Valley high and sung Home from the Wiz and this song and it was so magical. Felt like I was floating out of my seat! Thank you so much for performing for us Melinda!!! Youve inspired ❤💞💓💓
이노래가 이런 느낌일줄이야~
매혹적이네요~♥
Omg I remember her. She finished 3rd place on American Idol Season 6!!!
