@@firstinkon413 hey, danke für deinen Kommentar! Mit dem "Pipi in den Augen" ging mir auch so! Immer wieder schön zu erleben, was Musik bewirken kann 🎶♥️
It's indeed a seriously complex bassline. And Julia surely did it justice. She's not intimidated by basslines of this caliber at all. She handles Larry Graham's "Hair" with equal finesse. (It's listed on her TH-cam channel.)
Couldn't get the audio to work on my phone so I watched you play in silence. Made me smile to watch you feel the groove. I'll listen when I get to my computer.
I've been playing bass for 42 years learning from JJBurnel, Flea and Tim Commerford. Now I'm learning from you. I'm smiling and if they see this, I'm sure they're smiling too. Keep doing this and I hope rich rewards will follow.
JJBurnel aficionado her too. Saw in live somewhere in the 80s. How about a Whiskey? Or maybe a peache for dessert? (as for the others, I am more from the Marvin Gaye / Jamerson / Soul fhnk school.)
OUTSTANDING cover of the immortal 1984 Jocelyn Brown classic I danced at the disco in my twenties...the groove and punch you deliver with those bass parts is a clear demonstration of the saying "the sound lies in the hands". You have my never ending admiration.
Please just make her the next Carol Kaye and have her be the studio bassist in every session everywhere. There's not a cover I have heard that she doesn't make instantly better.
I say she "ruins" songs. Once you hear Julia's version you can't ever enjoy the original in quite the same way! More Julia; fewer boring bass parts. ;)
Now THAT'S how you're supposed to play this song! Her groove was spot on! Nailed it!!! I've been playing bass since the 70s and I know a great funky bass player when I see/hear one. I especially loved her body language and facial expressions. So confident!
She's sooo good that she makes you like songs you didn't even know you liked!!! It's crazy how I can hear a song countless times and never really hear it until JULIA puts her spin on it.
You are by far my favorite bassist on TH-cam. Wow! Your touch, your tone, your execution, your timing, are all perfect. Somehow you manage to make the bass the most melodic and interesting part of every arrangement you write. Any tips on how you managed to get so good at the instrument. Us normies want to learn your ways 😅 Anyway, thank you for posting again. Hope your life is rocking. Cheers and aloha!
She sure has enought talent to be a session player. Just remember that a session player has to be able to sight read and learn parts instantly. They also have to improvise at the drop of a hat.
Gotta give credit to this girl,,, Everything she does,,,she's just on point! Excellent song selection as well can't wait to see her on the big stage with her own band one day soon! Keep that groove going! The world needs more people like her,,,, thank you for keeping the music alive🙌🏻
I love the way you making your videos. No effects, just a simple bass plug in a computer et voilàà. You and your talent, you really need nothing else to be a pro class musicien
What's so crazy is every song she has covered that I was familiar with, Never too much, Forget me nots and now this, I have come away liking the song more than when I first heard it. I am now a subscriber just so I can see what she does next. Well done, Julia, well done!
Unbelievably smooth slap bass. Learning this song atm and was just watching her right hand for the whole video. The transitions from fingerstyle to slap was effortless and all the extra fills just thrown in were Unbelievable. Great cover!
My bass has been propped up against the wall for months as the enthusiasm to play isn't as strong as it used to be. Watching the sheer joy on Julia's face as she glides through these covers is inspiring. 👍
Watching this video gave me a better appreciation of the original bass performance. Julia’s version is enjoyable as always and sounds beautifully clean, but back in the day those licks must have been scary.
That's the real funky shit! Amazing! I was 15 as I bought me the vinyl maxi single of this song. What a great time and how great to see you young lady point out this addictive bassline.
Nooooooooooo...not Somebody else's Guy. Noooooooo. Not only i got the 6-minute version on vinyl, but this is one of my favorite records coming up as a kid. Little mama, Major salute. I hope Jocelyn Brown likes this video. Also, since you did this cover, look up Jean Burton-Bad Habit. Same kind of vibe, but funky at the same time.
Wait for it... And there it is , crescendo Bam! Always a pleasure to watch you ply your craft and enjoy your musicality. Kudos! Job well done. The hair on my arm stood up as you played the intro' ❤️❤️🙏👍
The SPEEEED with which I opened this video as soon as I saw the title! I had to link to my speaker so I could hear every last bit of it! Amazing, simply amazing.
Yeah if we're talking what affects sound of electric bass/guitar the most, it's like amp+effects -> pickups -> strings/scale length (guitar maybe has less of a "thing" with roundwound vs flat but certainly still string _thickness_ and such)
Awesome. You know, one of the great things about your music, is the fact that at your young age and my older age means that I should be able to continue watching you grow as an artist until I die ! 👍
wow!!!!! never expected this one played by you Julia!! This is one of my favourite songs from when iwas young, brings so many memories!!! I am sure you will make it justice as always (haven´t even started the video yet), here we go!!
Uuuuhhhhh what a amazing playstuff! ✌️👍👍👍👍 You make me dance right away and you are making the track of Jocelyn more beautiful than original! Thanks for the tune 🎶 you're majesty of bass! ❤️🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🙋🏼♂️
Wow! I’ve been following you for a few years now. You’re getting better every year. I’m so impressed with your videos. You’re a BEAST on that Bass! Keep them coming.
This is the first time I'm listening to this song. I thought it would be slow and sad at the beginning of the song, but the part where the song evolves is great. I'm having fun listening to you and a new song has been added to my playlist. I appreciate his mastery of this instrument. Thanks for everything ❤️
This is one of the funkiest songs of the early 80's, a big dancefloor hit. There are many gems like this, most people don't know them. So it is more than astonishing that Julia from time to time play one of these gems, because she wasn't born in the 80's.
I absolutely LOVE your skills! I can't think of enough words to describe how much your playing moves me! In musician's terms: Always "tight and in the pocket!" I'm a DJ/Producer that has always wanted to learn how to play bass! I guess at age 55, it's never too late to start, but your video is motivational & inspirational! Great Work!
When the beat drops, it's like you drop your heart and soul right into the story of the song!!! Nobody better.....WHAT THAT FUNK......KEEP FUNKIN' IT UP GIRL!!!
i just started playing bass a couple months ago. it feels so unattainable right now, but i so aspire to be able to play like you. thank you for sharing yourself with the world!!
Truly underrated I don’t understand how this doesn’t have the following it deserves! I haven’t picked up a bass and years but I’m so inspired to buy one and get back to it when I get home. You’re amazing
You are amazing I wish I could chill and play music with people like you but hardly nobody where I live in my little town where cornflakes cereal was born lol. This is such an uplifting funky song never heard it but anything you play is great! Your like those actors like Robin Williams that can make anything great that they perform!
![Jocelyn Brown - Somebody Else's Guy [Bass Cover]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/6AiGu1cHf_o/mqdefault.jpg)
The wealth of her groove is endless. Another demonstration of the power of the bass in a real artist's hands.
Ok Julia... I was around when this jam originally dropped. You weren't born yet. You found this song and then elevated it. Thank you. There is hope...
❤

YES!! I LOVE IT!! 58 YEARS OLD HERE!! 👍🏾👍🏾
@@Demischel Thank you, greetings from Germany 🎶🤩
@judiomusic Me too 56 years old..here And.. Thanks Juila .. 🤍🤍🤍 From Italy
Ich liebe es und hab n bisserl pipi in den Augen wenn ich sehe das so junge Menschen meine Musik spielen. Bin 57😅 Greetings from Germany
@@firstinkon413 hey, danke für deinen Kommentar!
Mit dem "Pipi in den Augen" ging mir auch so!
Immer wieder schön zu erleben, was Musik bewirken kann 🎶♥️
Reminds me of London clubs in the 80s. Fantastic job. Funky and sassy!
I've heard that song a million times and never knew the bass line was so involved!
It wasn't until Julia go ahold of it.
@@ElderHarryLJackson her rewrites are almost always better than the original
Same here.
It's indeed a seriously complex bassline. And Julia surely did it justice. She's not intimidated by basslines of this caliber at all. She handles Larry Graham's "Hair" with equal finesse. (It's listed on her TH-cam channel.)
Are you kidding? That bass lines slaps you in the face from the start!😊
Julia does it again....Play that bass girl...Jocelyn is diggin this for sure.. This was a club and radio fav from the 80's....RIP Jocelyn Brown
I don’t think Jocelyn has passed away and is still very much with us
RIP when? She's still alive AFAIK?
Jocelyn Brown is still alive.
Julia jams to the music while PLAYING the same way we jam to it while LISTENING! I love that.
Julia, you are such an incredible musician. It makes my family and me so happy to listen to you playing. Thank you so much for sharing your talent.
Couldn't get the audio to work on my phone so I watched you play in silence. Made me smile to watch you feel the groove. I'll listen when I get to my computer.

OUTSTANDING cover of the immortal 1984 Jocelyn Brown classic I danced at the disco in my twenties...the groove and punch you deliver with those bass parts is a clear demonstration of the saying "the sound lies in the hands". You have my never ending admiration.
Jaw dropped at least 3 times. Brilliant Julia! 🤩
Please just make her the next Carol Kaye and have her be the studio bassist in every session everywhere. There's not a cover I have heard that she doesn't make instantly better.
I say she "ruins" songs. Once you hear Julia's version you can't ever enjoy the original in quite the same way! More Julia; fewer boring bass parts. ;)
hopefully yes
Amen to that! Fantastic and beautiful ❤
@@KevinRevolinskiYES! I have always said when I go back and listen to the originals after Julia’s covers I’m disappointed by the lack of spicy bass 😂
@@KevinRevolinski yes! I'll be listening to a radio version and start playing air guitar with the thumping sounds!
Now THAT'S how you're supposed to play this song! Her groove was spot on! Nailed it!!! I've been playing bass since the 70s and I know a great funky bass player when I see/hear one. I especially loved her body language and facial expressions. So confident!
I love when she does these old funk soul songs. Personally I think this girl will smoke any bass player out now.
She's sooo good that she makes you like songs you didn't even know you liked!!! It's crazy how I can hear a song countless times and never really hear it until JULIA puts her spin on it.
What I love about her is she not just playing it, she's enjoying it just like we did back in the day. You go girl!

You are the one .....
Very nice! I kinda like Julia Hofer as well (Thomanns)
You make a drummer want to learn bass. Keep it up, incredible.
Same!
same..!
How is she not a known session player? Her playing is so tight.
Not that easy to break into the session business, my friend. They are all incredible players. She will get there; she has time.
She lives in Poland, not exactly a commercial music mecha. If she moved to the US I can see her getting work pretty damn quick.
And she's in music school.
At this point in her life she is a known TH-cam player. Rome wasnt build in a day.
She sure has enought talent to be a session player. Just remember that a session player has to be able to sight read and learn parts instantly. They also have to improvise at the drop of a hat.
You gotta love her “funk face”.😖 Keep slappin’ Julia!👍🏻
She never disappoints 🤌🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Flawless, Julias content is absolute perfection.
For Real!
Never EVER 😀 Her covers have become my absolute musical joy!
Gotta give credit to this girl,,, Everything she does,,,she's just on point! Excellent song selection as well can't wait to see her on the big stage with her own band one day soon! Keep that groove going! The world needs more people like her,,,, thank you for keeping the music alive🙌🏻
Keeping the "REAL" music alive is important! Put a stop to sampling!!!
So CALM while she's tearin' up the joint on that axe! She does all female artists PROUD!!!!!!!!!!❤😂🎉😻💜🩵💙💚💛🧡🩷💕💞👌❤️🩹💯👍🫶💪
Thank you Julia, at aged 50 you’ve inspired me to pick up the bass, you are completely amazing, please don’t stop making videos !!
One of the best bassists of our time, relish it.
Your channel made me appreciate even more the bassline on every song I listen to fr
After mastering the instrument, Julia has also mastered the bass faces, congrats ! (My favorite one is at 2:48 😍)
A key skill
I totally agree!
a stank face master indeed
I love the way you making your videos. No effects, just a simple bass plug in a computer et voilàà. You and your talent, you really need nothing else to be a pro class musicien
Growing up in NYC, that song brings back memories...
@@MiriahV23 Chief Rocker "Frankie Crocker."
No doubt!
Haven't heard this song since I was a kid. Your version of this is absolutely stunning, Julia! I'm speechless. Thank You for all that you do.
So smooth, Julia! You are beyond talented. Thank you for sharing! 🎉❤ 🎸
What's so crazy is every song she has covered that I was familiar with, Never too much, Forget me nots and now this, I have come away liking the song more than when I first heard it. I am now a subscriber just so I can see what she does next. Well done, Julia, well done!
Julia finally shows her real play class! chic style of apparent lightness, speed and accuracy.
You inspire me to continue playing bass while also reminding me that I'll never be that good
Back to classics. Really good!
Its always a pleasure to hear you playing mit favourite songs from my youth...I was 17 when this song dragged me to the dancefloor!
Unbelievably smooth slap bass. Learning this song atm and was just watching her right hand for the whole video. The transitions from fingerstyle to slap was effortless and all the extra fills just thrown in were Unbelievable. Great cover!
I hadn't listen to that song in ages and actually listened to it yesterday and there you go dropping an amazing cover as usual. Crazy!
I come back to this channel often to reassure myself that good musicianship will exist in the future.
My bass has been propped up against the wall for months as the enthusiasm to play isn't as strong as it used to be. Watching the sheer joy on Julia's face as she glides through these covers is inspiring. 👍
Serotonin whenever Julia posts
I just saw that JULIAPLAYSGROOVE released a video and I'm like, I CAN NOT and WILL NOT miss it!!!
GREAT, GREAT JOB - AGAIN!!!
I have been waiting for such a funky tune since the end of last year. Thank you for covering! Excellent work as usual!
Without a doubt this is the best bass cover of this song.
This "Little Girl" is as PROFESSIONAL as all get out! She's an absolute BEAST on that bass guitar!!!!!😮😃😄😁😇🥰😍🤩😙🤠🥳
Layers upon layer here- still noticing things you did in this one after multiple viewings. You really are the lyric poet of the bass guitar.
All respect for your choise of bass and tone for each song. And your wonderful timing and feel of cause! Thanks!
Watching this video gave me a better appreciation of the original bass performance. Julia’s version is enjoyable as always and sounds beautifully clean, but back in the day those licks must have been scary.
Ur such an Old Soul Julia! I was jammin that 12in back in 1987! In fact, I still have it in Digital form now! U ROCK!!
Holy smokes, this was Epic. Love your take on one of my favourite tunes from back in the days. Cheers from Sweden! 🇸🇪
1:54 I don't understand what's happened here, i was not ready for this! Awesome cover again, and i love your music taste! Merci !
That's called a slap triplet. Marcus Miller and many many others use it all the time
Oh funk yeah! This was an instant like, my all time favourite bassline song, covered by my all time favourite TH-cam cover bass player ❤
Oh hell yes! So much joy on her face as always. Remarkable. Brilliant.
She is absolutely "Killing-It" - phenomenal job. oNe LovE from NYC
That's the real funky shit! Amazing! I was 15 as I bought me the vinyl maxi single of this song. What a great time and how great to see you young lady point out this addictive bassline.
And for 3 minutes and 50 seconds all was right with the world.
Never fails to make me smile.
Nooooooooooo...not Somebody else's Guy. Noooooooo. Not only i got the 6-minute version on vinyl, but this is one of my favorite records coming up as a kid. Little mama, Major salute.

I love watching you catch your groove and especially when The Groove catches You.
Thank you for sharing Julia!
You make me wanna learn bass! That groove makes me envious
The SPEEEED with which I opened this video as soon as I saw the title! I had to link to my speaker so I could hear every last bit of it! Amazing, simply amazing.
The grooviest bassist is backkk 🔥🔥
You have turned in one of the better bass players of this time.
I wish you Godspeed.
Another fave of mine, Cheryl Lynn - Got To Be Real. love you to bass cover this.
Even your studio has the Clean, Vibrant feel as does your music!Its always a wonderful show you put on and I always Love it!!Thanks,Neil
Wow you killed this one. The choice of songs that you cover shows incredible taste
Exactly!
If I had to keep only one TH-cam video, it would be this one. What groove! it's just brilliant, it's perfection
That shortscale bass sounds so different from your other basses. I never realized how in a skilled musician there would be a noticeable difference.
Yeah if we're talking what affects sound of electric bass/guitar the most, it's like amp+effects -> pickups -> strings/scale length (guitar maybe has less of a "thing" with roundwound vs flat but certainly still string _thickness_ and such)
Awesome. You know, one of the great things about your music, is the fact that at your young age and my older age means that I should be able to continue watching you grow as an artist until I die ! 👍
That one was EXTRA funky!
I am in AWE of this young uber-talented lady. Every bass cover of hers is spectacular. BRAVA Dear Julia.
wow!!!!! never expected this one played by you Julia!! This is one of my favourite songs from when iwas young, brings so many memories!!! I am sure you will make it justice as always (haven´t even started the video yet), here we go!!
Those little runs you added to your playing is so tasty. This is how it set you apart from many highly technical bass players.
Never felt disappointed by Julia 🔥❤️
I'm from Brazil and I really enjoyed watching all the videos you're awesome
Uuuuhhhhh what a amazing playstuff! ✌️👍👍👍👍
You make me dance right away and you are making the track of Jocelyn more beautiful than original!

Can't imagine a better song for this kind of bass playin. Great as always!
I love her playing just solid and in pocket…Fantastic job
Ridiculously good. What else should we expect? 😉
Love that Stingray sound !
This is the first time I'm listening to this song. I thought it would be slow and sad at the beginning of the song, but the part where the song evolves is great.
