OMG… I’m a 65 year old lifelong musician, bass as primary instrument for the last 3 years, and she is teaching me and inspiring me as much as ANYONE ! Janek Gwizdala, Julia Hofer, Scott’s Bass Lessons, this lady is right on top ! Of course I’m subscribed !
Due to your performance I started bass guitar lessons in Holland. You're never to old to learn to play on such a marvelous instrument. Thank you Julia!
I truly can't stress how Pleased I am to see someone so young that not only appreciates these true R&B songs but Learns how to play them so well!! I can't help but wear a big smile as I watch your videos! I keep sayin "Go head, Girl!" Proud of you.
I've been listening to Jamiroquai the whole week and landed up on this video. It's amazing to see that Julia already played with impeccable technique 7 years ago. This execution is ridiculously perfect.
I'm one of the few people. Back in the old days was a youtube bass dude from Switzerland playing some serious bass funky covers and was insanely good. I don't remember his name.
It’s not just the technical skill, which you obviously have. It’s also your musicality. You have the feel for the song, and it takes your playing to a new level. Amazing!
Julia, I was listening to this without seeing the RUclips video. Tucked away down in my office listening to RUclips take me through some decent funk tracks. I play several instruments and out of necessity purchased myself a Fender Jazz six string several years ago as it was the position within my musical community that required a volunteer. I love Victor Wooten and Stanley Clark, but Bootsy Collins is my man... I was able to use my voice dictation software to rewind the track several times until I finally decided to have a look at who was playing. I was blown away. Your fretwork is accurate and you are a talented sniper. Your timing is amazing and to be able to pull that off with your tiny little hands and the accuracy you projected in your musicianship and command of your guitar was spectacular. I pray you never forget to include music as a daily piece of your journey through life. You have a rare talent and here is the most important thing..... Because of you..... I stopped everything and grabbed my bass.... cause of you. THANKYOU !!! :) :) :)
First off we all know Jamiroquai is amazing!!!....young lady you've got an bright future as an musician...self taught..spectacular!...keep it up don't stop..you are gifted Julia.
I’m 43 years old and I started learning how to play bass now and I wanted to learn that song. But after watching this talented and gifted girl, I noticed I’m not ready yet.
Ya dont know til ya know. Break it down. Get the tone and feel. Slowly. You can play anything you put your mind and dedication to. Until ya hit the freak/alien stuff. Keep at it, brother. Your two year old comment has a 43yrs at it studio hack re-inspired. Chiz, ~R
Hearing you play is literally bringing a tear to my eye. Good Music sees no color, race, or creed. It’s the universal language. Your musicianship is SPACEAGE, FUNKY, NEXT DIMENSIONAL Groove! 🙏🔥🔥🔥💯
Most promising young fingerstyle player I've seen in a long while. I've been playing since the mid 1980s but wouldnt have been able to play like this at the same stage of learning as she Julia was at the time this was shot. The combination of the trills, the little bits of vibrato and especially the ghost notes.... very very very very impressive for one so young.
This was brilliant back then, and to think Julia has only gotten better is mindblowing! I'm a Guitar player, but since watching this young lady I've got myself a bass too, and I'm enjoying playing so much, YOU did that Julia. 👍😊❤️
Just a pleasure watching you playing the bass. Awesome song to play the bass on. And the extended version as well. Thanx 4 honoring the classics! Luv this song by Jamiroquai! 😃👍
My goodness! Your right hand is so strong and you play with such control in your fret hand, all while playing with a very mature groove with a great tone! Your have such wonderful command of the instrument! I listen to bass players everyday. Even at your age in 2015, you were THE cleanest young bass player I've seen. You are tremendously inspiring. I have to finish this message to go practice!
I love your playing, but.............. You are not snapping the string where you are supposed to, and that is where I have the problem with your playing!
@@myklallen7184, If you would be so kind as to do a video of the cover played the "right way", I'm sure everybody would love to see it, (at least I know I would). Let us know when you post your video. Until then, we will have to "settle" for Julia's cover.
The bass sound of this masterpiece it's one of the difficultie's all time...(Stuart Zender is amazing) , but this young girl sound is amazing too....ho can do that?? Simply: she's not human...😄😄 Congratulation Julia,your great👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Yep I agree. This is certainly not an easy song to play - I don't play the bass myself but I know a few things about music - and Julia just nails it with grace. :)
I think you have absolutely great talent! It's refreshing to see youth engaged in positive healthy activities! Music is life! I'm only 35 but still... Much respect! Thank you!
Julia, I am in Melbourne Australia and love this clip. You are so in the groove with this song and an amazing talent. Reach for the stars girl, your awesome!
All the ghost notes, the popping and everything in place => a grooving' playin' that could turn without drums (if it was necessary) ! Beautiful play and clean technique ! If you learned that alone Julia it means you have everything in you to trace the road ! Natural born bassist you are > Use the Force, Julia ! 🙂
I recently came across you and im amazed by how good you are. And the fact you play Jamiroquai from the good old Zender days and being so young! Respect to you. Clearly you were born to play bass. Keep bringing the groove.
I played this as one of the pieces for my final high school music exam way back in 2010 and i did good but you’re so clean with it and the technique and tone is on point. Love it!
Well, RUclips comments :) I never do it. But! Julia, this song I listened to over and over again in my youth. I always loved the bassline, and as a drummer - well. Nothing better than this sort of thing matching. Amazing, I root for you a lot, all the best, bunches of respect, admiration and love. Keep it up and thank you, wholeheartedly, for sharing your skill and hard work!
Yo go girl!!! You make me want to add a bass guitar to my collection of instruments. Jamiroquai was one of my favourite artists when i was your age. (a loooong time ago) Keep it up!
The timing and feel almost like you are slightly ahead of the count without speeding up anticipating the notes coming up shows how well you know the song.
Great tone, in the pocket, all the string bends to get the intonation just right. I know many musicians who never got that far in a lifetime. And at this point she's only been playing for just over two years. What a talent! (And I great taste in music I must add)
Just stumbled across this channel a few days back, thank you for keeping me sane through exams with these videos! This has to be the grooviest one I've heard yet!!
Greetings from Canada. Been down the rabbit hole with your vids. Extraordinary talent - such feel at such a young age...thankyou and please stay safe! We need more Julia!!

@BallTistic Screecher ; And she ain't even a martian!!
So there's hope for me.
The Funk Is In This Young Lady Here!! I Know, I’ve Been In Studio Sessions With Uncle Bootsy. He WILL Be Getting A Heads Up On This Young Funkstres!!
No way she's self taught to much technique in those fingers
She's born to play the bass...the music she chooses let's you know just how well she hears and feels that bass

Yessssss

YOU GOT THIS! BASS IS SO FUN!
On the contrary due to her performance I'm about to quit bass!
there is nothing better than watching/listening someone who is that young kicking ass on a master level.
Julia is certainly a true example of hard work, dedication and..... lots of talent.

I thought she was only playing for about 2 and a half years?
@@VeganStance as you can see, this video is already 7 years old
Note-perfect technique but I'm blown away by the awesome TONE! Too few people appreciate a good bass buzz.
I'm one of the few people. Back in the old days was a youtube bass dude from Switzerland playing some serious bass funky covers and was insanely good. I don't remember his name.
...like the saxophone's 'screech'

I wonder if her friends at school know how f***ing amazing she is.
@Why Me, Why Not This is by far the best comment I have ever read on youtube. Thank you.
Shes 18, i dont think she still goes to school
Fabio Sousa This was approximately 3 years ago. Julia was about 15 yrs old here.
Yeah i know she is amazing
@@fabiosousa8523 majority of people in Poland go to school at 18
God you played that beautifully...your fingers on the fretboard is just a joy to watch. Magical!
That chorus is tight..good job.
All the bass on Return of the Space Cowboy is sick.
This song is from "emergency on planet earth"
Emergency on Planet Earth... Yup 🚨🌎

she is always in time with every single beat amazing i guess she also dances pretty well ...such a rithm inside ...wonderful creature!
Killin it!!! Stuart Zender would be super proud
Props to you Julia!! I love it! Not only funky and talented but you choose excellent music!!!
This was brilliant back then, and to think Julia has only gotten better is mindblowing! I'm a Guitar player, but since watching this young lady I've got myself a bass too, and I'm enjoying playing so much, YOU did that Julia. 👍😊❤️
I play guitar but I think I might buy a bass tomorrow and play this version of come down.
Wow, fantastic performance! This is not Julia playing the bass, this is the bass speaking through Julia.
I'm loving Her Talent, She's the best Bass player By far on RUclips, can't get enough of her style, Everything about her is perfect.
My grown 49 yr old black self over her screaming like a Justin Bieber fan as if I’m at a concert! Jus wow!!!!
Old white guy here and I am just blown away by this girl. She is phenomenal!!!! Self taught with the most natural technique
38 from Ga over here head bobbing and binge watching
LMAO!!
She is bad man
Marc Antonio, that’s a good name
i m listening in my headphones, it sounds absolutely perfect, accents everything, nice job
Just a pleasure watching you playing the bass. Awesome song to play the bass on. And the extended version as well.
Thanx 4 honoring the classics! Luv this song by Jamiroquai! 😃👍
Your playing skills are absurd. I am simply in awe of how well you play. Big future ahead for you, that's for sure.

after a dozen of your covers i say its not only that you play em good. your choice of tracks and therefor bass parts is excellent too.
Unbelievable! It sounds so good that I couldn't believe my ears! Perfect timing, groove, vibrato, phrasing... just exactly like in the original!

U rule !! My fav jamiroquai song people don't ever give respect.
Wrooong ! Jamiroquai recieved alot respect. This record was groundbreaking in the 90' Jazz R+B Funk/Soul People loved it. A highly respected musician.
It's a really great song
But I do
You are a true inspiration for all of us bass lovers. This year I take back to bass playing thanks to you
Just came across this. Fabulous playing!!! It's so inspiring to see young musicians with this much talent and dedication to music.
Julia, this is nothing less than WONDERFUL!!!!!
Thank you for posting this. Keep grooving!!!!
Best regards from Rio de Janeiro / Brazil
I recently came across you and im amazed by how good you are. And the fact you play Jamiroquai from the good old Zender days and being so young! Respect to you. Clearly you were born to play bass. Keep bringing the groove.
Just randomly watched three covers of this song and yours is the best. So funky. Also makes me want to learn this song, great bass line 😊
hear frequently your old songs, just soooooo wonderful and well you play them. Especially the Jamiroquai songs I love. And all the others.
Wow! Incredible. This is why the bass is such an amazing instrument and you play it with such ease.
Grande Juliaaa ! Congratulations !...cheers from Argentina !
Some people have talent, crazy talent. This young Woman is ons of those people. She has an attachment to the bass that's almost unreal !!
Play it girl!
I think this song is a rite of passage for any self-respecting groovy bassist! So pleased to hear you play it! 💜 The love of the craft is clear 👍🏽
At this point..You have the soul!! new too you and yes you have it!
beautiful done! Such deep and rich tones... gave me goose bumps!!!
So that"s how they do it! TOTALY AWSOME!!!!!
One of my favourite bass lines and now one of my fav covers! Great version! My respects to you :)
Absolutely fantastic
It was my first bass line with a group 1999 ... I love this Line 💓
what a joy to hear here and there again this old songs!!!! Usually I hear your music daily when I sit in the tram going to work :-)
wow! very impressive... you groove divinely!!!
I played this as one of the pieces for my final high school music exam way back in 2010 and i did good but you’re so clean with it and the technique and tone is on point. Love it!
Listen to this album a lot on long cruises. This song is one of my favorites and this cover is just amazing
I'm sorry but this girl, has more Soul and Funk in her than anyone would imagine! Hence the saying never judge a book by its cover!
Amazing! Very mature technique and great sound! Powerful bass player in making!
The world is saved. I cry tears of joy...
One of my favourite bass lines too. WTG!
Great groove Julia!
You got some serious skills. Absolutely perfect. That tone!

You wouldn't believe the grin I have on my face watching this... to be fair, I've had a spliff... but YOU GOT THE GROOVE, young lady!

Brilliant. One of my favourite basslines. Executed perfectly. Well done
Fantastic. Hard work and so much soul !!
