There's a reason why you don't see funk covers on your feed as often as slowed down acoustic. It's because this shit is difficult to do well. Funk bands are all about each player playing a subtle line with extreme precision. One of my favorite parts about funk is that for the band to succeed, they almost HAVE to do a little dance to keep time. It takes so much energy to put forth precise subtlety, and at the end the total is greater than the sum of it's parts, and suddenly the audience is moving their feet while watching a little video on their phone a thousand miles away from where this video was filmed. Idk it's all just beautiful
Can anyone talk about the great vibes she's giving off? I sense every word she's singing, she brings out those lyrics on the surface with her expressions! Love it
To all the musicians in this video, you guys are tremendous but also I want to acknowledge all the work that’s done by the team behind (recording editing mixing etc) this is top notch content
...and the editor said "Screw it; I'm tired. Just use the handheld stuff; I don't care that it took two hours to set up all the stationary cameras and sync them all up...."
This song always used to evoke feelings of melancholy. This version turned the tide completely and leaves a smile of Joy & Gratitude, for such a colourful rendition.
Absolute banger! Laura's has so much range. The vibe of each and every individual is fabulous. You can see the enjoyment on their faces and knows they have a hit. Thank you!
And I'd give up forever to touch you 'Cause I know that you feel me somehow You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be And I don't want to go home right now And all I can taste is this moment And all I can breathe is your life And sooner or later, it's over I just don't wanna miss you tonight And I don't want the world to see me 'Cause I don't think that they'd understand When everything's made to be broken I just want you to know who I am And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming Or the moment of truth in your lies When everything feels like the movies Yeah, you bleed just to know, you're alive
This video only has 1.7 Million views. You are a liar and I don't know how I am ever going to be able to trust you moving forward. Honestly, I'm more disappointed than anything.
I love when you can literally hear her smile in the pronunciation of what she's singing. This whole setup is incredible and everyone did a phenomenal job.
Thanks algorithm, even tho you should have shown me this earlier, i'm clueless about guitar and keys (i mean, i can hear that they fit perfectly but i can't tell how hard it is and how complicated is what they're playing ^^) but the drums & basslines and the vocals are awesome
HOW DARE YOU MAKE ME ENJOY THIS SONG. I legit would half-punch my radio dial in the 90s when this song and Santanna's "Smooth" was shoved down my earholes. And now I'm grooving here.... seething. LMAO.
this was the first video I watched of Scary Pockets, I must say most other ones the singer only sings a generic pop style in funk, but this singer additionally does the vocals in funk, and i think that's significant.
First of all, loved this cover. Great modern pop take with some funky bass lines thrown in there. Laura Elliott, amazing voice. Second, these skits are getting really good. This one and the one at the end of Ain't No Mountain are both excellent.
@@stefanhakopians3418 Got to see him play once with Chick Corea at the Catalina Bar and Grill. It was an insane night: Stanley Clarke got up on stage to replace John Pattatucci on bass, they played old Return to Forever songs. Then Alicia Keys stands up, two tables away from me (I hadn't noticed her, had been minding my own business) and does a song with Chick (just her and Chick). Chad really lives the life lol.
Such engaging, subtle sounds and textures in this, including Laura's very subtle vocal riffing. Well done. Also, Laura's small rearrangement of the lyrics in the second chorus - "everything feels to be broken" - works out rather well :)
The music is the star but repect for the acting at the end. So much vague detail beyond the big metaphor. Stuff like the subtext for maybe no reason about Billy's parents doing it too is class ❤

Guys, do you send the vinyls to Brazil? Thank You!!
The Toronto show is already sold out?!
@vulf + @scarypockets!
same feeling. got dizzy following the cameraman.
ad at the end was hilarious. well done
Bob Ross laid down a killer bass line on this one🔥
It's so much fun to play bass in funk bands~~~
Happy little beats
And how about Dana Carvey on the drums?
Dude, that's Dennis Feinstein aka Adrian Pimento aka Jason Mantzoukas.
I'll smoke a happy little tree to that!
The phrasing on the vocals is impeccable
I dont know whats better: the cover or the comercial at the end 😂😂😂😂
or the sweaters
So genius. LMAO
After listening to just 20 seconds, and not watching the commercial, I feel safe saying it's the commercial that is better.
The commercial is pure gold!
Throwing the song under the bus with a closer of an ad
Laura Elliott got the swag the charm and lot of sweetness on that voice.

couldn't agree more! Also, it needs extra skills of musical engineering to make sure all the devices and signals goes together.
I'm indeed moving my feet 😂
i think i was on one when i wrote this comment but i stand by it lol
it has antidepressant qualities
Need more of Laura Elliott… she’s legit
Can anyone talk about the great vibes she's giving off? I sense every word she's singing, she brings out those lyrics on the surface with her expressions! Love it
40 seconds and I already fell in love with this girl 😭
Her voice is superb..

:)) Exactly my thoughts
It's for vertical viewers like on Instagram or stuff like that if you know what I mean
@@jjmsj
Yeah those fkucs.
@@uhuhno6441 who hurt you my child?
@@uhuhno6441 lol
This song always used to evoke feelings of melancholy.
This version turned the tide completely and leaves a smile of Joy & Gratitude, for such a colourful rendition.
Exactly why i feel T-T
yes
now we have a "happy version" lol
The amount of cameras seen in this video is insane. And all they used was this one single take video from one camera (which feels right).
It's a completely different song, with a completely different vibe. But it somehow really works! Love it!
So,in essence, you are saying that it is completely different, yeah? Wow!
I like this cover more than the original song
@@sheekharrajgurung1352 same and iris has been one of my most highly regarded songs for ages
It's not *that* different in the scope of SP's covers.
I think a great cover has to be completely different. Otherwise it's just a re-recording.
Laura is absolutely amazing in this awesome rendition!!!!!!!♡!!!!!!!
Love the character she has in her voice!
Absolute banger! Laura's has so much range. The vibe of each and every individual is fabulous. You can see the enjoyment on their faces and knows they have a hit. Thank you!
more with Laura Elliott!! Such an incredible cover
Hii😊
And I'd give up forever to touch you
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now
And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
And sooner or later, it's over
I just don't wanna miss you tonight
And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah, you bleed just to know, you're alive
I've watch this cover like 2 million times and i will watch it another 2 million, Laura has an AMAZING funk singing!!!!
This video only has 1.7 Million views. You are a liar and I don't know how I am ever going to be able to trust you moving forward. Honestly, I'm more disappointed than anything.
So dissonant yet so compelling. How can a song be so sad and happy at the same time?
yeah, I found it amazing.
the cover is happy and I like that. 😁
I instantly fell in love with the song on the first listen. Everything is in the right place and at the right time. Another jewel for the ages.
SO effortless as if she's talking
Couldn’t have said it better, it is insane
I love when you can literally hear her smile in the pronunciation of what she's singing. This whole setup is incredible and everyone did a phenomenal job.
Jeez that drummer is insane. Talk about being in the groove
This song does not do him justice at all. Check out Fred by Alan Holdsworth with the master Chad Wackerman or anything with both of them.

Guy with the hat smiling and head nodding towards mid-end was like "she's killing it!😁"

That's an incredible vocalist the band got there. Just all vibe...
Bless them
that ad at the end was pure gold!
Obsessed with this cover! Her voice is phenomenal!
The heavy Daft Punk vibe in the melody makes this song crazy good.
The band is tight & her voice is stunning on this track.. Goose Bumps!!
never seen a man more happy to be playing a sustained interval ❤
As a 90's kid this song is really memorable to me during highschool. her spin on the song is really good this generation might like it..good job!!!
Probably the best cover on this channel.
One of the best covers from Scary Pockets!
I love seeing the joy n every musician’s face.❤
Love her smile and vibe!
00:54 the phrasing!!!
Instantly fell in love with that woman
one of the best interpretation of Iris by Googoodolls I've ever heard.
Miss Elliott, your smile is like your wonderful voce, sunshine beauty
1st time hearing this was a cultural shock 🫨
But 2nd time onwards, this song gets better just a lil more every time I listen
Amazingly done
Hi bro ❤
Fully agree
@@samudrabasu150 hi man
Glad you made it here
To me it still sounds like random funk chords, with the Iris lyrics. Like you play Blue from EIfel 65 and sing every breath you take
Better than the original
I love her vocal runs so much...
cast,crew,band,and Laura: solid performance! Great voice!
HOW DARE YOU MAKE ME ENJOY THIS SONG. I legit would half-punch my radio dial in the 90s when this song and Santanna's "Smooth" was shoved down my earholes.
And now I'm grooving here.... seething. LMAO.
i didn't think it was possible to love this song even more... i was wrong!
i love this version
this was the first video I watched of Scary Pockets, I must say most other ones the singer only sings a generic pop style in funk, but this singer additionally does the vocals in funk, and i think that's significant.
Try watching some of the ones with India Carney or Maiya Sykes
I think this is the kind of a cover that nobody asked for AND everyone LOVES it.
Immaculate vibes
Been listening this for two days straight
Everything that have a Wackerman drummer playing is quality guaranteed
Wow, Laura is amazing. The whole band is amazing.
BTW: Chad is changing his pocket constantly, this guy knows, what he is doing.
Joe has absolutely killed it on the bass! Love this!
the band really nailed it!
First of all, loved this cover. Great modern pop take with some funky bass lines thrown in there. Laura Elliott, amazing voice.
Second, these skits are getting really good. This one and the one at the end of Ain't No Mountain are both excellent.
Was expecting to not like this, but boy was I wrong, this is fire!
Holy shit, y'all got Chad Wackerman. Dude is a legend!
Great cover!
This is his second in a row. Check out the other one too.
I didn't even notice that. What the everloving eff lol!!!!!! Thanks for pointing it out.
I think this might be the 3rd vid with him. They also have had his daughter Sophia on too!
Yees...Chad Wackerman...

this is absolutely one of the best videos that I have watched recently
This girls a star
The cover I didn't know I needed. Straight fire
the ad at the end absolutely killed me. i'm not even into vinyls, but it made me want to buy one.
Its like a whole different song! Amazing
Omg that ad at the end is hilarious! xD
Such engaging, subtle sounds and textures in this, including Laura's very subtle vocal riffing. Well done.
Also, Laura's small rearrangement of the lyrics in the second chorus - "everything feels to be broken" - works out rather well :)
Jazz bass with flatwounds is such an underutilized tone, glad to see SP bringing it back.
Oh god, I’m glad that TH-cam recommended this band. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Wow, what a beautiful voice - a light and carefree melody with cool vibes. Thank you once again for a great musical experience.
Yeah very similar vibes to their STAY cover featuring Mia Mor! 👍
Absolutely loving this version! Another win for Scary Pockets ❤
💯💯
I've been following Laura since day 1 and I am so happy to see her performing with Scary Pockets. Incredible cover, love you guys!
Day 1?? Did you get VIP access to the hospital she was delivered at?
@@camedelic1365 funny as hell
What a good time. Wish i could to it live then and there. Keep playing you all. Everyone from audio engineer to all the instruments were on point
The vocal and the bassist are really good. You have a real talent for creating music. Keep doing what you do best! 🎶🔥
can somebody lead me in the right direction for more music like this cover? i’m obsessed
funk and jazz genres, plus the scary pockets is full of funk covers like this one
try Vulfpeck
One word - astonishing!
The music is the star but repect for the acting at the end. So much vague detail beyond the big metaphor. Stuff like the subtext for maybe no reason about Billy's parents doing it too is class ❤
liked the cover (Laura Elliot is another revelation- SP keeps finding awesome vocalists) but loved the promo at the end...
Holy shit her voice is INSANE! and at only 22? She's definitely a breath o fresh air to the music world. This was an absolute 100000/10 performance.
Only 22!?!?? Geez she wasn’t even born when the Dolls released this song! Man I feel old! 😂
You just think she's cute. Her singing is pretty bad.
Wild. I absolutely couldn't stand this song when it was popular, but this cover is great.
Chad Wackerman on the drums oh yeah!!!🥁🥁🥁👍👍👍
Holyyy Laura! why did you guys get all my favourite artists 😭
I keep coming back to listen to this one. So good.
they just look like they're having so much fun
this vibe is overload with joy. glad to stumble on this song
Nailed 1000% , to my plylist will go !!
I come for the music - but I ALWAYS stay for the commercial, and it's never disappointing! Great stuff, as always!
Scary Pockets does it again!
There is so much visible joy and musical skill in this one room! :D Breath taking cover!
This cover might be the best thing ever want more!!!
Insane musicians
yes GANGG !!!!!
Once again, stellar music! Don't sleep on how good the vinyl club promo was, well done.
Such a treat to get a funk cover of a non-funk song. That way, you would nevert go "Funk cover? But that was already in funk!"
Laura is absolutely amazing with her voice and her cute expressions 💖
What a fucking blast!
What an incredible talent
OMG nice version! Perfect!
Seeing you guys tonight in Portland and so excited!
Wow! Best rendition
This is incredible wow. My favorite version of iris was sleeping with sirens take on it but this one has overtaken it. Insanely good.
It's so much fun to just observe the band and the pure joy they experiencing. Phantastic cover!
