I used to work in a huge mall years ago and Say It Right was one of the songs on the mall's playlist. It would blast out on the blown out old speakers into a cavernous room, creating a ton of natural reverb. I used to think Say It Right actually kinda shown through that environment, I liked the way it sounded and always imagined a psychedelic or shoegazy cover of it would be amazing. Thank you for finally delivering, Tame Impala!
Such an interesting comment which says alot about the production value. Timbaland stated they used moving microphones that rotated in full circles when recording the live Strings on Say It Right. Its probably what helped alot to create that ambience and reverb you mentioned.
Fun story: This cover got me into my current relationship Well, this kind of sparked what would lead to our relationship, but we were working at the same retail store and they were playing Nelly Furtado's original version. I looked over at who would be my current partner and saw her bobbing her head to the original and I told her, "Tame Impala's got a pretty dope cover of this song". I would get her number and send her the cover and it eventually led to us dating for 6+ months now :) Thanks, Tame Impala.
Say it Right was extremely prominent in my childhood, I loved Timbaland growing up as well as Furtado. Tame Impala has been prominent in my life for the last few years so it’s a nice blend. This is so good oh my lord!
@@themarinect You couldn't be further from the truth. She had numerous hit songs across various genres - Promiscuous, Say it Right, Maneater, All Good Things, I'm Like a Bird, etc. She had 4 successeful albums. She collaborated with Justin Timberlake, Juanes, K'naan Timbaland etc. A typical one hit wonder would be Chumbawamba with their song Tubthumping.
i'm gonna cry. MY FAVORITE BAND COVERING MY FAVORITE SONG EVER! there is something so atmospherical about timbaland beats and production overall. it matched so perfectly with kevin arrangement, great choice OMG.
Tame Impala makes the music I have literally waited my whole life for. They've literally aced every genre be that electronic, rock, 'psychedelic' etc and are true artists in every sense of the word. This cover is another piece of genius -- TBH didn't feel much for the Furtado song but listening to this just takes me to another dimension. Way to go, guys!
Anyone else nearly start crying at the bus stop when they saw this. Nelly had some amazing music and now my favourite band is covering her. Give me a moment.
In the day In the night Say it right Say it all You either got it Or you don't You either stand or you fall When your will is broken When it slips from your hand When there's no time for joking There's a hole in the plan Oh, you don't mean nothing at all to me No, you don't mean nothing at all to me But you got what it takes to set me free Oh, you could mean everything to me I can't say that, I'm not lost and at fault I can't say that, I don't love the light and the dark I can't say that, I don't know that I am alive And all of what I feel I could show You tonight you tonight Oh you don't mean nothing at all to me No you don't mean nothing at all to me But you got what it takes to set me free Oh you could mean everything to me From my hands, I could give you Something that I made From my mouth, I could sing you another brick that I laid From my body, I could show you a place God knows You should know the space is holy Do you really want to go?
*Please, my God, if Tame Impala knows all the talent and doesn't forget Nelly Furtado, why do we? Nelly gave us one of the best albums of the past decade, we should get it out again in its heyday*
HOLY **** I listen to Tame Impala and Nelly Furtado on the daily and would've NEVER in my life dreamed of this to happen. I am blown away, this is amazing
Your doing it right Tame, with these live performances you get to spread your sound vastly and directly into our speakers and with precise sound and details.
Kevin Parker I love your work. I love that even though you are famous, you still have a timidness in your performance. Not in a bad way, but in a vulnerable and respectful way. I love your energy. You don't need to be up in peoples faces being crazy. You just are you.. so in love with it. Amazing cover, and now I'm inspired to cover it

I was still a kid when this song came out, but the people I partied with in my teens liked putting 2000s songs at the parties so I have to say you're absolutely right
I heard the original song yesterday while shopping and I was so confused because I had never heard the song but it sounded so familiar. I Shazamed it and then remembered this cover of the song. That just goes to show how good of a cover this is.
As much as I love tame impala.. the Michael jackson thriller cover they did years back was kinda of shitty. Kevin was having a difficult time hitting the notes. But i will say for the most covers they’ve done they sounded crazy good.
the cover i didn’t know i needed
Samw.
Fucking, same
Fucking exactly
What is going on with your profile pic?
Twitter brought me here and OMG 🥰🥰
Tame Impala will go down in history as one of those bands that really redefined having a unique style.
Tame impala is a one man show. It's not a band. It's just Kevin Parker

Does anyone else feel like Nelly Furtado is wayyy too underrated like her music was so amazing!!
She released an album in 2017 which was pretty good if I remember correctly
Her 2017 album is amazing
Yes. Yes they do
yeaaaahhhhhh shes amazing ¡¡ i love her
Timbaland helped.
I think Nelly should cover a Tame Impala's song
to complete the circle.
Did Kevin cover a Rihanna song? Or is this cicle still incomplete?
@@Dalt1n999 Does rihanna have ever written a song?
@@Dalt1n999 Rihanna covered “New Person Same Old Mistakes,” but I don’t think he’s covered any of hers, yet.
I liked Nelly Furtado’s cover of Crazy by Gnarls Barkley
@@thalesm4056 A lot more than you think, actually. Most of them can, however, be found only on Anti.
Nelly Furtado and Timbo need to get back in the studio ASAP. This was a straight banger
She said they might work together in the future
drinkmoreágua omg really??
He stole $ from her😪
Very good.
@@officAllie1991 nooooo please dont say thats true 😧
His vocals on the chorus WOW
Yes, his voice sounds Super cool😊
Honestly would be so down to see a concert of Kevin covering songs
No elephant? no apocalypse dream? no alter ego? no let it happen? etc...nah I’m good on that lol
YES, I'm still in love with his Stranger in Moscow cover
@@EricMcLovin13 check out his cover of vital signs!!
DUDE YES

Frfr it’s played often at my restaurant job when we put the top 40 channel on. It’s endured I think because of that very atmosphere it creates. 😃
Wow . I am loving for this kind of cmt with this type insight for music
Holy shiiiiit we need a studio version ASAP
Knowing Tame Impala, it would sound just the same
Just close your eyes.
Yeet!
We also need a studio version of Perfect Illusion!
This is the studio version
Only elder Gen Z and Millennials understand the impact of Nelly Furtado.
Say It Right is one of my favourite songs to this day. Love Nelly Furtado.
@@soager-tz1qg MTV use to play the hell out of this song on trl when I was in middle school I hated it lmao
DJ Benton well hopefully your minds changed now because this song is brilliant
PERIOD!!!!! a moment in fkin timeee!!!
Oooooh fck yeah
Fleetwood Mac, OutKast, Nelly Furtado. The man is versatile.
And Michael Jackson, Kylie Minogue, massive attack and the Flaming lips
What outkast song did he cover?
@@Ronjohnson10 Prototype, it's awesome.
Dont forget Midnight Juggernauts ‘Vital Signs’ 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽
+ Gaga's Perfect Illusion disco vibe. HOLY

Same, best comment!
Spoke for so many of us❤️
It just sounds like his song. Like he wrote/produced/performed it. Incredible.
Kevin is clearly a fan of Timbaland’s production, he also said Miscommunication was one of his favorite songs
Never thought I’d say this, but I would love to see Kevin and the gang cover more of Timbaland’s productions.
damn now that u say it, his song «whiplash» with theophilius london is very similar to miscommunication
Kevin said the Neptunes inspired breathe deeper but I can definitely hear some timbaland inspiration now that i think of it
@@noahjohansen3812 I hear it!
i’m sure he loved his drums
To the people wondering if she’s underrated. She made huge success in the 00s and this whole thing just did it’s circle and life goes on.
True 👍
She gain a Lot of music awards.
just because she MADE success, doesn't mean she isn't underrated, a lot of people I see say they know every song from her, but have no idea who she is
She's an example of one hit wonder

Tame Impala covering this legendary song is something I never knew I needed.
I want this cover in spotify!

Everybody does
Download the audio from youtube and upload to your personal spotify. You can listen to local files on spotify too
@@Vfulncchl thanks)
Cinema K upload it as a podcast so pthers can save it 🥺🖤
Weird how this doesn’t have 11teen jabillion views cause that’s how many times I’ve watched this now
We'll get there.
Feel like I'm floating thru space listening to this.. wow I love it
Saaaame, this is universal 🌌
This is instantly one of my favorite covers ever
This cover cleansed me from the pain of 2020!!!
So did to us mate....greetings.....
Kevin always comes in clutch with a new banger from heaven I can listen to right as I’m going through something rough. Every time.
legit same
He could sing Friday by Rebecca Black and I'd be in a trance.
He would legit make it work
OMG
I like Friday by Rebecca Black unironically. I mean I used to hate but now it is just so cool
@@kayleenjones5103 i feel u. now at 23 I realise what a bully I was
Edgelord feat. Rebecca Black BANGER
omg, gave me chills... all my memories flashback during days without smartphone and MTV!
Those were the days
In the day
In the night
Say it right
Say it all
You either got it
Or you don't
You either stand or you fall
When your will is broken
When it slips from your hand
When there's no time for joking
There's a hole in the plan
Oh, you don't mean nothing at all to me
No, you don't mean nothing at all to me
But you got what it takes to set me free
Oh, you could mean everything to me
I can't say that, I'm not lost and at fault
I can't say that, I don't love the light and the dark
I can't say that, I don't know that I am alive
And all of what I feel I could show
You tonight you tonight
Oh you don't mean nothing at all to me
No you don't mean nothing at all to me
But you got what it takes to set me free
Oh you could mean everything to me
From my hands, I could give you
Something that I made
From my mouth, I could sing you another brick that I laid
From my body, I could show you a place God knows
You should know the space is holy
Do you really want to go?
*Please, my God, if Tame Impala knows all the talent and doesn't forget Nelly Furtado, why do we? Nelly gave us one of the best albums of the past decade, we should get it out again in its heyday*
Catchy. Like the way they have given it that nice chilled dance vibe.
Timbaland needs to be recognized as the killer producer he is
He is
Real ones know, living legend
@@gustavmahler3228 seriously a G.O.A.T
he is... lmfao
For me, he's the best producer all time
I hope that Tame impala will release a studio version of Nelly Furtado's cover. It's has the potential to become a huge banger!!
Along with Perfect Illusion as well! An EP filled with song covers.
everything that this man touch is magic!
This sound so good ✨✨
I demand this version on Spotify!!
This cover is so good, I can’t get ENOUGH
I was like "how is this going to....oh of course its good". lol
I love Nelly Furtado!
This is wholesome. We are healing 2020.
Timbaland is such a great producer. He did all these masterpieces from the 00's. Any good beat you've heard from the 00's was probably done by him.
yeah he is one of my all time favs. what a unique sound
Nelly Furtado wrote the songs 👌
Him and Dre (along with Scott Storch) owned the 00s
I thank god for Tame Impala & Nelly Furtado every time I listen to them
HOLY **** I listen to Tame Impala and Nelly Furtado on the daily and would've NEVER in my life dreamed of this to happen. I am blown away, this is amazing
the way i fucking love this man... undefeated force in the music industry for years... and so many more to come
like the weird guy killing it at karaoke.
HAHA
ok handsome
Ahhahahahahahahah
hahaha actually tho!

These Tame Impala live versions are pushing me over the edge. SO GOOD
Tame Impala covers is always out of this world
Oooh the nostalgia!
I am addicted to this.
His song 'Taxi's Here' always reminded me of 'Say it right'
That percussion.
Same!!
Actually yeah I just realized that
Love that song
lol I listen to taxis here a lot and always think the same
i keep coming back to this but it NEEDS to be on spotify
Hauntingly beautiful, the synths and the echo's are epic

You don't need to be up in peoples faces being crazy. You just are you.. so in love with it. Amazing cover, and now I'm inspired to cover it
One of my favorite songs by Nelly Furtado, covered by my #1 man.
Aff, que perfeição, tem criança chorando aqui
this is a dream come true, wow
Oooh, we did a cover of this too back in May! Nice to see some Nelly love going around this year
Class cover lads..
That was a stunning version!
brilliant!
Cool!
LYRICS.
In the day, in the night
Say it right, say it all

No, you don't mean nothing at all to me
But you got what it takes to set me free
Oh, you could mean everything to me
I can't say that I'm not
Lost and at fault
I can't say that I don't
Love the light and the dark
I can't say that I don't
Know that I am alive
And all of what I feel
I could show you tonight, you tonight
Oh, you don't mean nothing at all to me
No, you don't mean nothing at all to me
But you got what it takes to set me free
Oh, you could mean everything to me
This is so good. I've always loved Nelly as child and this song has been one of my favorites. Her lyrics are so deep Thanks for this cover!
You MUST bring this out as a single - best cover Ive heard in a long time
This song and Explode were my childhood Nelly Furtado songs
How come he always covers sth i don't expect but he manages to cover something I truly love and he nails it
I still play this song constantly I’m so excited this is epic!!!
I’ve listened to this like 10 times in a row. It’s so good.
This is so goosebumps inducing, feel good and chill out at the same time ❤️
The nostalgia this gave me! 😩🤯
I love this cover so much man I wish it would go on spotify
I gasped so loud when I read the title of this holy shittttttt 🥺
I already played it 9 times in a row, what a song!!!!!
This is what the original sounds like when you are in the club, on the potty and ya ecky is kicking in. Thats a giod thing kids.
The way this is perfectly right...nostalgia of drunken nights in my early 20’s 😍
ohhhhlord yes
This comment brought in a very mysterious nostalgic feeling to me.❣️
LMAOOOO I was not of an age to be partying in the early 2000s but this sounds like the best possible version of it. 😩🥰🥰🥰
I was still a kid when this song came out, but the people I partied with in my teens liked putting 2000s songs at the parties so I have to say you're absolutely right
truly obsessed with this one
this song is timeless.and yeah we all know tame impala guys were drawn to the rythm of it
This so lit I don't even think he know how fire this is. effortlessly
Amo Tame Impala e fazendo cover de uma das cantoras que mais admiro Nelly Furtado ♥️🥰🇧🇷🤩 Nelly Furtado te amo ❤️

This song is so beautiful. Such a vibe
this song is one of the best songs in pop history so is not surprise this is one of the best covers in pop history
I'd actually love to see Kevin cover every single song he loves cos you know they'd be amazing
I'm addicted for this Song!
The original song is such an underrated masterpiece.

Excellent cover version . Should be released as a single !👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

He never disappoints, thanks Kevin
OBSESSED is an understatement, everything kevin touches turns to gold
I SCREAMED as soon as I saw this on my feed.
This was my favourite song!!! And bloody TI covering it just warmed my heart
