Lana actually did a really good job putting her own spin on this while preserving its original spirit. Kudos to them both for this subtle reinvention. Loves it.
well it's just a cover of the song "Doin' Time" but the song itself sampled the song "summertime". not sure by who, it's old and one of the most famous performances are by Louis Armstrong
Just so everyone know's the lyric "SUMMERTIME & THE LIVIN'S EASY" is dated back to George Gershwin in 1934 & has been covered several times. 1. George Gershwin & Abbie Mitchell - Summertime (1934) 2. Billie Holiday - Summertime (1936) 3. Mahalia Jackson - Summertime (1956) 4. Ella Fitzgerald & Louis Armstrong - Summertime (1957) 5. Sublime - Doin’ Time (1997) 6. Lana Del Rey - Doin’ Time (2019)
Feel it would be better suited to Baz Luhrmanns early films. That slow dissolving transition in the video kind of matches the style in some of his movies.
I was fortunate enough to see a live show back before Bradley with the voice of an angel departed from us. I was new to So Cal never heard ANYTHING LIKE IT! Still one of the best albums of the century. Can’t believe it’s been 30yrs. Thats wild ! I ended up making my way farther down the coast from Santa Barbara to Long Beach to HB and best memories with Sublime playing in the background. If I could only listen to one album the rest of life hands down, this Would my pick. 🫶🏼
correcting -George Gershwin's 1930s “Summertime” -Sublime doin time -Lana did two covers, summertime and doin time, doin time only uses the same start, it's not the same song doin time and summertime, it's different songs
I have always loved how trippy and mysterious the hook is. Sublime is one of those bands that exemplifies the unique sound and culture of California. And maybe it's just me, but I always make barking sounds along with the dog at the end. RIP Bradley.

Love that sublime is on TH-cam. I grew up when they were around and never realized how powerful they were. RIP Bradley and carry on Jakob. No matter what happens this vibe is carried on...much love
I just heard Lana del Rey version and thought it was a relatively new original and "lockdown penitentiary" was referencing covid. When I read it was a sublime song I was thinking "what I got"? how? But she is true to the song. Now I'm trying to find the Gershwyn connection
lol yeah youre def right about it not being fit for a 6 year old to listen to but none the less I was still listening to this at that age because on my parents music taste, hence why im here.
This song defined a era in my childhood when I got Dave Mirra's BMX game for the OG Xbox, played it everyday after school, I will always love this song
I heard a lot of sublime songs growing but somehow I didn’t hear this one till Lana covered it. Never would have thought sublime sampled Ella Fitzgerald. Of course the blues sample fit Lana so perfect too😍🥹🙏 thank you so much sublime for this masterpiece!
“I'd like to hold her head underwater” - you can visualize these feelings so easily. I like the way he doesnt have breath control either, and he barely has enough air to say some words.
This song is a masterpiece. The way Bradley uses his voice like a calming a seductive weapon…so poetic, groovy and almost jazzy. Sublime gave Cali the unique and renowned sound that makes them the distinctive west coast. Every year I just fall more in love with Sublime. No one can be as great as them ever. Btw, I don’t like Lana’s cover. She stole their shine…Sublimes is the best and will always be the OG. ❤🙌😻🎶
The thing is that my mom was singing this song for me like à lullaby when i was little and i just discover now that it is a real song and the way that Lana del rey just cover this like my mom was singing it is awesome. Now i can listen to it like my lullaby for grown up ahah
Tbh Lanas cover was awfull. Her voice sounded so strange with that wierd echo effect, also the beat really just did not match the vibe with this song, nor did the beat, and in my oppinion her song was just awful. But you can like hers if you want Im not one to judge I just like this one 4,000x more.
I love Louie Dog, and I love this band. I nominated you guys for the Rock Hall. I know the politics for it isn’t the best, but I hope you guys get into the museum.

Auto tune has that effect but it's all staged. Watch it live. Whole different vibe and not in a good way. Lana's is studio magic. Sublime is raw and real. Auto tune didn't exist back then.
@@christiansimmons6881 Actually, autotune did exist in a different way. People were using synths and production tools to modulate vocals all the time. Plenty of disparities between studio/live productions. Don't be an ass.

Either way, I don’t think this song can ever be done right again; you just can’t separate a Sublime song from Bradley’s voice: they are forever interconnected. Without Bradley singing, this song, no matter who does it or how good it’s done, will always be off. There will always be that nagging feeling of something missing.
This song makes me feel less stressed about life. It makes me want to just sit and appreciate the beauty of life.🏖 Hi! Hope you’re having a great day, full of good energy and blessings.🧡

I was looking for this comment top game and song. RIP
I bought this game at a yard sale when I was 4, I am so happy you put this hear! You reminded me
RIP
This was one of my favorite all time games along with this song. Mannnn. It was it, it was life.
This song has an ambience that would be fitting for a movie.. I can’t quite articulate it better than that but it’s tied to a specific emotion
that emotion you have right after waking up from a strange dream that was more absurd than what you've expirienced in years.
I believe it’s in a basketball movie, Hustle, it’s on Netflix
Feel it would be better suited to Baz Luhrmanns early films. That slow dissolving transition in the video kind of matches the style in some of his movies.

This song has always stood out to me, especially that lick at the beginning. Truly beautiful.
I had that as my ringtone for years and years!
It's perfect. 😎
the bit at the beginning is from a song called “summer time” which has been preformed by many artists including Ella Fitzgerald and Billie Holliday!
"summertime and the livin's easy" is a reference to the piece "summertime" from american opera Porgy and Bess. give it a listen!
Bradley’s on the microphone with Ras-MG was his way of saying no matter where you are in life keep going you are going to make it 🙏
Bradley James Nowell,
gone but never forgotten.
Sublime was the shit back in the 90's.
Random comment but here to factually state that this an absolute all-timer of a song. One of the best pieces of art ever written. Bradley the goat.
I’m only 16 so I wasn’t born when this came out but I found it recently and I’m so happy I did. It’s so amazing 😍
Love that sublime is on TH-cam. I grew up when they were around and never realized how powerful they were. RIP Bradley and carry on Jakob. No matter what happens this vibe is carried on...much love
This whole album should be in the Library of Congress as an artifact of American culture.
Man what could have been.
Summer time. And the livings easy~
Reggae has instant nostalgic potential. I consider sublime the master of reggae and pseudo-rock

Summertime, and the livin's easy
Bradley's on the microphone with Ras M.G.
All people in the dance will agree
That we're well-qualified to represent the L.B.C.
And me and Louie, we gon' run to the party
Dance to the rhythm, it gets harder
Me and my girl, we got this relationship
I love her so bad, but she treats me like shit...
On lockdown, like a penitentiary
She spreads her lovin' all over
And when she gets home,
there's none left for me
Summertime, and the livin's easy
Bradley's on the microphone with Ras M.G.
All people in the dance will agree
That we're well-qualified to represent the L.B.C.
Me, me and Louie, we gon' run to the party
Dance to the rhythm, it gets harder
Oh, take this veil from off my eyes
My burning sun will, some day, rise
So, what am I gonna be doin' for a while?
Said, I'm gonna play with myself
Show them, now, we've come off the shelf
So what?
Summertime, and the livin's easy
Bradley's on the microphone with Ras M.G.
All people in the dance will agree
That we're well-qualified to represent the L.B.C.
Me and Louie, run to the party
Dance to the rhythm, it gets harder
Evil, I've come to tell you that she's evil, most definitely
Evil, ornery, scandalous and evil, most definitely
The tension, it's getting hotter
I'd like to hold her head underwater
Me and my girl
We've got a relationship
Me and my girl, mmm
We got a relationship, mmm-hmm
My girl
We got a relationship, oh
And my girl
Got a relationship
Take a tip, take a tip
Take a ti-ti-ti-tip from me
Bradley's on the microphone with Ras M.G.
All people in the dance will agree
That we're well-qualified to represent the L.B.C.
Me, la-la-Louie
While everybody run to the rhythm, it gets harder
Summertime, and the livin's easy
I swear like, how does this vid not have more likes?
Just heard the last “do do doo” part on the radio and had no idea what song this was. Looked up summertime song, and here I am let’s go hahaha
I love sublime with my entire life.
So sad about Bradley but hey, at least we can listen to the beautiful music he did!
OG SUBLIME#1
BRADLEY (RIP)
oh my god i forgot this existed, found this song from a freestyle BMX game in the second grade on the PS2
Dave Mirra Freestyle BMX 2, I played it when I was around the same age
Dave mirras BMX!!!!
@@Cobra_427 iirc it was one of the tracks that would play if you went into the level editor and selected the nighttime city/commercial park map to build your custom park. I would spend hours doing nothing but messing around in that game. I'm so glad others still remember it!
Awesome legendary game !
this is the best song ever, i heard this and then while i tried to look up the song name i kept finding Lana’s cover 😭 FINALLYY i found it!
Big up David Mirra bmx 2 for showing me this song. Legend game, legend song
aye imma leave a comment ere to come back when this has got millions of views. Let the lovin' come back to this music
Beautiful voice touches my heart. RIP.
Such a beautiful voice!!!
Wow. It took uhhhh 15 years to finally get a good copy of this vid. I’ve been watching it on the self titled vhs that came out in ‘97
I got that too!
Dave Mirra Pro BMX Soundtrack introduced me to soo many good bands back in the day. Doin' Time always stuck with me
Doin Time by Sublime is a musically hypnotic song despite the obvious soap opera juicy tones of this music song story.
LANA ABSOLUTELY TOOK THIS SONG TO THE SKY!!!! SHE ELEVATED IT! FROM SIMPLE GROOVE TO A MYSTERIOUS MESMERISING HYMN!!
She fixed it
This version will always be better seethe
Hahahahahaha
OG version is a lot better
@@pyropulseIXXI nothing beats the orginal tho I still enjoyed Lana’s version lol
