    This proves why I say that Tank and Jelly are TRULY BETTER TOGETHER THAN APART
    BUT BOTH ARE AWESOME

    If you knew how often I watch this… I’m a writer and I can never get enough of the lyrical magic Tank and the Bangas provide my inspiration. Thank you, Past Studios. This has been a special treat for me since the click that landed me on it. Appreciating your work in the North. ~Sheeara, Alaska

    This video gives us a closer look at the dynamics of their improvisation. The restraint and thoughtfulness of the flute-player, and the way the background singer is always one step behind Tank. All of these musicians are just so talented, it´s hard to take in in just one watch.

    • @waynedexter
      @waynedexter 4 года назад +2

      It funny. Every video with 1K views or more has at least 1 dislike. This has been happening for last 15 years now. But yet there’s always folks bring attention to dislikes asking how or why. Makes me think why comment on something that’s pretty much ubiquitous. Especially considering that what’s most important is the views, not the dislikes.

    One of the best performance from a genius band. Jelly is very sexy in this green dress, she is the queen of backing vocal (she deserves her how solo career, but please come back). Tank once again not only sing perfectly but also makes me smile, she able to beam good energy, not only through her voice, but also her gesture and her look. the keyboards players and drummer (sorry I forgot your names) are very talented, their skills adds perfect melody.
    big love from France, je vous aime !
