Oh for goodness sake, this is; the sweetest tune ever. Her voice , my GOD, I've never heard anything more mellow.
This is so beautiful, Alba sings directly from the soul. Thank you
One of the best covers of "Triste" in the last 25 years! Alba Armengou nails the vocal. Great arrangement, amazing vocal harmonies, and excellent ensemble play. No wonder it has over 5 million views, muchas gracias Professor Chamorro!
WOW This performance is pretty amazing. The sax and piano solos are creme de la creme. But that vocal harmony is just absolutely sublime.
Yes. It requires intense musical training to sing Seconds harmony like that. Wow!
In my 60 years of musical performance, teaching and listening I have never witnessed any performance from any person that there was a clearer "life" moment for an individual as with Alba Armengou's performance of Triste. The lighting, the intonations, the blends, the gentle and nuanced movement through the song, the truly innocence of expressions by Alba was an encapsulation of a truly life moment for her. That is not to take away from any of the other brilliant musicians, however, this song, this coming together of so many naturally beautiful elements of artistic expression elevated this young women's innocent and unaffected angelic voice and song to the purest of eternal beauty. Alma, you should treasure these most magical few moments as the highest level of the wonderment of human beings. Amazing, simply unforgettable.
Beautiful and very appropriate comment. I agree totally.
Gerald, it is clear you took time with your comments which perfectly embody my feelings and sentiments. Just a wonderfully beautiful and moving piece; a pure expression of life, love and emotion; teh best of humanity. Thanks for taking the time.
I stumbled upon this in 2020, and continue to revisit.
Agreed on all counts, Gerald. Thank you for articulating so beautifully.
Such beautiful words. I fell in love...
Alba could sing the ingredients label on a can of soup and it would be beautiful. Her voice is simply intoxicating.
I can't describe the feeling of satisfaction I have when I see the younger generation carrying on music traditions and adding their own contributions to it, part of a long, unbroken chain of musical beauty.
This song could not be sung better. Absolutely gorgeous phrasing, and background vocals are perfection. Great to hear these boss a nova sounds revived and refreshed, perhaps performed as never before. Alba’s voice was made to sing this particular song. Such a beautiful language as well.
Agree 10000% with the voice part, but not the accent. LOL.
Alba has a beautiful voice. She sings so nice with sensitiveness, besides this is a very mellow song.
i keep watching this over and over, a few times a week. it's just so perfect, the sound is excellent, vocals and every instrument spot on, great song. it's like it has the same excellence of paul desmond, jim hall, elis regina from back in the day, all captured with today's technology. love this!
Any idea what mic they used on the lead vocals? Can't believe they got that sound out of a dynamic mic
Don't understand a single word, but her voice is magic.
Sad is to live in solitude
Far from your tranquil altitude
Sad is to know that no one ever can live on a dream
That never will be, will never be
Dreamer awake, wake up and see
Your beauty is an aeroplane
So high, my heart can't bear the strain
A heart that stops when you pass by only to cause me pain
Sad is to live in solitude
When I get weary of the world and the wars I come to this channel and observe the best in music and humanity. 😊
Amen!
I have no idea how TH-cam came up with that suggestion but I'm so grateful, this is a joy to listen to. The backing vocals are exceptional, and everything else is great too. Also, I love how the lead singer looks so humble and sweet, focusing her attention on the soloists and applauding even while she resumes singing, all of this while having enormous talent and a fantastic voice. Congratulations to all, this is just beautiful. I'll come back to this video regularly for sure.
Welcome to the worldwide association of SANT ANDREU JAZZ BAND enthusiasts!
And she was 15 years old at this time---but she'd been in this band for 6 years already! (You'll have to get further into the SAJB to understand this.)
No make up, no mini skirts, not seeking attention, just pure talent that’s what I respect
Without undermining all of Alba Armengou's jubilation, we must, above all, thank Antônio Carlos Jobin, both for the lyrics and the wonderful melody of this BOSSA NOVA, which praises the BRAZILIAN people.
San Andreu is a working-class neighborhood on the outskirts of Barcelona. Railroad tracks and little else. Great to see the people make the beauty that the area lacks. I played Basketball there for San Joan de Mata.
I am 82 and a jazz guy since I. was 15 It is my birthday and I pick them over all to celebrate Makes me feel alive
I am 85 and ditto!
All the best to you both! 21 here & always loved music such as this.
I am also 82, and sang jazz, and wish that they had that jazz camp when I was that age. Oh, well.
@@hankarnold9355 19 over there the jazz never will be dead!.
I'm "only" 77, but agree - I had the good fortune to be playing this kind of music (not this well of course) back in the 50s. Unfortunately I was not good enough to make a career of it.
I dont know how many times i've listened to this. It's just eargasmic! Their blended voices have the perfect vocal chemistry. I hope they make a repeat performance for 2023!
I have just revisited this after a long gap, but having watched and listened maybe a hundred times before.
It is still total perfection. The harmony and pace and timing are stunning. A moment captured in time, in the young lives of these fantastically talented people. It never gets old.
❤😊
She has probably the most beautiful voice I’ve ever heard. I showed my mom and both her and I are so in love with the way she sings. She has such a silky sultry voice
You are so right. Beyond perfection
I certainly hope all those musicians are still in jazz.
Joan Chamorro is a brilliant man. Hours and months and years spent with these young people.
Brasilian Samba, Bossa never disappoints....and the vocal harmony of these young people is pure delight.
facts
I've come here again...because this is just perfect. Sublime! That arrangement, those voices! Just WOW!!!
This is the most beautiful music I've heard in the past 20 years ♥️👍🤓🎺
Bossa Nova Classic...Best regards from Brazil.
Mí Respeto y Admiración por Joan Chamorro, un gran Maestro de la Cultura Musical, dándole la Oportunidad a Todos estos Jóvenes de diferentes Países del Mundo , para que cumplan sus Sueños y Proyectos de Vida con las Bellas Artes . Felicitaciones.
Something about the particular combination reaches a new spot in my enjoyment of the beautiful effort. God bless all of you.
Wonderful! Very promising young talents! These musicians bring out the best of each other.
❤❤❤
I like too much Bossa Nova and I play on piano 🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹 Garota de Ipanema 💓❤️🔥☀️🌈🫶🏻
Thank You for this Marvellous Dream 💓
Angels coming to Earth to perform this song. The lead singer is particularly expressive.
2:56 Enrique’s tenor solo was like a fine glass of wine🍷☀️
Blown away! So smooth!
This is Bossa Nova, a Brazilian jazz variant, at its best. Her voice is absolutely angelical and captivating.
Actually U.S. jazz is a Bossa Nova variant, rs...
But seriously now, Bossa Nova is a middle class variant of Samba, a music created by brazilian afro-descendent people as way to express it happyness when they are slaves, something as the roots of jazz, in the U.S. southern...
definitely correct
@@rmlazzari this is legit vibes right here
If one is the variant of the other is actually a big point of discussion between different audiophiles and music historians, but what we can say is that both are quite beautiful and unique in their own right :)
@@PS-yi7nz yes you defined very well.
This is Alba at her best. and she was just 15 when this was shot. And the back up by Andrea, Rita and Elia is fantastic. What great things Joan Chamorro has done with these young people!
Is she making records yet? I have the two full length albums with Joan C. and they are incredible. She's my favorite artist.
This is one of the FINEST bossa performances I've ever heard. I realize this was years ago, but the future of the genre is in excellent hands (and voices and hearts and souls!).
This years Jazzing Festival features 'Music of brazil'. Coming in September, I'm sure the band and singers witll be ready. Bassa will not be dead......
Jobim esta orgulloso, donde quiera que estes... Qué bueno que en Europa haya un resurgimiento de la bossa, mientras aca en América Latina si no es reggaeton no pueden hacer nada !
All the girls are truly fantastic, and nobody could sing this like Alba! My goodness, what a joy! Playerz are great too.
The future of fine music is in safe hands! 😊❤
The back-up harmony voices are astounding.
Each of the women in the chorus has sung lead in multiple other videos. In fact, by 2023 each of the 4 vocalists is leading a small group, touring and selling out where ever they go!
I have been listening to this for the last couple of years and every time I hear it, it sounds even better. Alba's voice is so sensual and her bossa nova feel is maybe the best since Joao Gilberto. Andrea, Rita and Elia's voices lay down such a wonderful carpet of gentle sounds for Alba to sing over and what a fabulous arrangement from Joan Chamorro. A work of musical perfection.
lead singer ... such a fine voice.
Astrud recently passed and she is smiling up there. These youngsters will certainly keep this bossa nova alive and well. Astrud, Stan Antonio, etc. will not have to worry if Joan and company are around. BEAUTIFUL arrangement of this classic!!! Keep them coming Joan !!!!
Bravissimo young people. The future of jazz will be great.
Alba and the girls are enchanting. 🥰
I've played music my whole life. This is pure musical magic. I've listened to this so many times. The best!!!
My favorite version of this song by a long way. Kudos to all.
Most of them now are alumni. It would be extremely helpful to have a kind of 'alumni' calendar. Who is playing when where. Living in Switzerland, I would love to go to concerts of these incredible musicians. Unfortunately I missed quite a number of opportunities as I stumbled across quite a number of past concerts, too late. It's difficult to follow them all, having to earn a living. Subscribing and being notified about concerts around my place would be a killer for my wallet. I would love this.
The world is a better place for having Alba sing in it.🎶
SUBLIME ,EL ARREGLOlas voces y la melodía ,bossa Jazz divino
Alba has the voice of an Angel 😇 ❤️💙
What a superb video of this joyous performance.
Thanks to all who worked to create this lovely gem.
It brings me happiness.
i have no idea what they are singing but i just love this so much. i must have heard it over and over 60+ times. Joan! you are simply amazing!
PORTUGUESE:
Triste é viver na solidão
Na dor cruel de uma paixão
Triste é saber que ninguém
Pode viver de ilusão
Que nunca vai ser nunca vai dar
O sonhador tem que acordar
Tua beleza é um avião
Demais p'rum pobre coração
Que pára pra te ver passar
Só pra me maltratar
Triste é viver na solidão
ENGLISH:
Sad is living in solitude
In the cruel pain of a passion
It's sad to know that no one
You can live in illusion
That will never be will never give
The dreamer has to wake up
Your beauty is (like) an airplane
Too much for a poor heart
Who stops just to see you pass by
Just to mistreat me
Sad is living in solitude
I feel like jazz is in good hands and we don't have to worry about it :)
Qui a composé triste
Beautiful
if feel like this is latin
* Bossa Nova!
What a great comment - yes, the torch will be passed into good hands. 😊💖
The value of TH-cam doubled when Joan Chamorro uploaded these videos.
I cannot understand a word, but I truly enjoy it!
the language is "português", from Brasil
Ok put aside for a moment the awesome vocals, bass and direction. In this video we experience great saxophonists (both of whom interpret differently) and a world class pianist !
And. although I've watched this a few times I just now realize how much the precision camera work and editing adds to making this piece a masterpiece.
And the fantastic though discreet drumming of young Abril Sauri. Sounds Brazilian!!!
Ramon Tort, the camerawork, the editing, has been critical to me noticing (being made to notice!) the performers' interactions, their own delight and commitment to each other and the music. This is jazz band as living organism.
Beautiful tenor saxo by Enrique Oliver. Jan Domenech is a wonderful pianist. Everyone plays in a very fine way. Rita Elia and Andrea are so sweet and Alba is the soul daughter of Cher Baker and Saraswati. Congratulations too all, Joan Chamorro is a perfect teacher and conductor.
music teacher here in Honolulu.... I wish I could 'like' this 1000 times.... wow. Congratulations on giving these young people the guidance to continue jazz.... amazing. fantastic.
Are you kidding me?? Absolutely flawless….!!
Maestro, I can’t tell you how many times I have enjoyed this beauty.
When I awake it’s playing in my mind. Thank you.
This morning I woke up with the sad news that legendary musician Joao Gilberto had passed away on saturday. This take of Triste literally brought tears (of joy mind you) to my eyes this morning. The beautiful arrangements of the exquisite vocals, the excellent solos ans the pure JOY that this performance and these young yet very talented young musicians brought to me, I think even mr Gilberto up in heaven will agree that this music is indeed very good hands with our youth. A big hand to mr Joan Chamorro for giving us the Sant Andreu Jazz Band and passing on beautiful music!👏 you made my day!
Jimmo here.... Man, I had to come to grips with it too....the morning didn't go so well. Few, I suspect realize that while AC Jobim crafted all those marvelous songs we took to our hearts and souls, it was Joao who invented Bossa Nova...he will be sorely missed. Here is something no fan should miss: daniellathompson.com/Texts/Brazzil/Plain_Joao.htm
Jim Griffin thanks for the link with these wonderful stories of Joao. What an extrordinary human being. He did indeed hypnotize his listeners, there is simply something mezmerizing in bossa, and the youngsters in this video nailed this emotion completely!
@@timobesamusca9332 Right on Timo... I play this song everyday on my guitar.....one more thing on Joao....he pulls off chords on any song he renders with the same finger pressure yielding a perfect sonority and completeness. Sometimes his voice is so far behind the beat or ahead of it, but at phrase end he's linked back up on the beat. Eliane Elias mentioned this once and was sorta shaking her head like we all do perhaps in wonderment herself. I love her too. Peace, Bro.
Joan Chamorro is a genius and was obviously blessed with the ability to turn these kids into new stars of the Jazz world. These current and past members of Joan's program are simply amazing. Congratulations Joan, your program is unique in the world. I been in the Jazz world for more than 50 years as a drummer and a fan. I have seen some of the greatest talents in the business and these "kids" could take the stage with any of them. The ongoing success of his students like Eva Fernandez and Andrea Motis are testaments to their commitment and Joan's ability to inspire and empower kids as young as 6 years old into the world of Jazz and to reveal their inner talents. He not only teaches these children how to express themselves through their instruments but he guides them to respect themselves and others and leads them into young adults with passion for their music and their future. It is simply magical and leaves me without words.
Another amazing, outstanding performance. Bravo Joan Chamorro and your students.
He certainly is training a whole new generation the art of jazz. So important! Yes! Bravo Joan Chamorro!
He is genius, isn't he, it's freaking amazing, the level of talent is ridiculous
Never seen anything like him-Genius for sure. GOD BLESS JOAN! Students will remember him as long as they live, as well as all of us that are greatfull for his creating such fantastic musicians and the music they create through his leadership and tutelage!
In America all the youngsters listen to garbage!
Jobim must be smiling down from Heaven.
After years more than 5 million views. This is one of the school's best-performed songs ever. Sung in a perfect and enveloping way and with solos of the highest quality. I could put him among the milestones of jazz for his absolute fresh execution
Hace dos años que descubrí esta interpretación y seguramente cada semana la escucho. Hoy me he dado cuenta que (sin querer) no le había dado "like". A veces no nos damos cuenta de que hay que agradecer lo que se nos da, pero nunca es tarde. Gracias Joan Chamorro, gracias Alba, gracias a todas las personas que estuvieron en ese escenario y gracias a las personas que hicieron esto posible, os deseo lo mejor porque, sin duda, me habéis aportado mucho.
My remedy for the sorry state of affairs in the world today is to inoculate yourself every morning by playing this prior to reading the news. Proof there still exists truth and beauty and light. Obrigado.
Hi Head. I stopped reading the news 10 years ago to preserve what's left of my brain.... Check out Morrissey's " Stop watching the news " vid ; it's a different vibe but good for a LAUGH !
ALMOST RIGHT INOCULATE SELF WITH LISTENING TO THIS ONLY AND SKIP THE NEWS! NEWS DISEASE MUSIC HEALTHY!!!!
Well said. This beauty can't make the crazy go away but it sure can help
Hi Joan, watching this again before bed. Enriqe, Luigi, Jan, Abril, Alba and the heavenly harmony of the girls and Senor Monne's excellent arreglo, one of my favorites from SAJB.
Matengnance bien todos!!
Mucho Gratias Joan, for reminding me of el comentario de hace 5 años.
Me trae buenos recuerdos.
¡Tu y toda la banda y los invitados se quedan bien en Barcelona!
Lead singer has a beautiful sultry voice!!!!!!!!!
Her voice is perfect for bossa nova
That's it. I'm learning Portuguese.
John Crawford same it’s really beautiful! Remember this is Brazillian Portuguese and European Portuguese sounds similar.
Boa sorte!
It's a beautiful language. And the lyrics of this well known song are available and 'Google Translate' can decipher the words and phrases very well. Obrigado.
It is a beautiful language.
Boa ideia meu amigo, boa ideia hahahhahaha
I love this band. The band and its musicians are excellent and that compliment comes from a drummer who has been playing with Big Bands for 62 years.
I've listened to this 100 times. The thing that shines for me is the incredibly beautiful vocal arrangements that complement so well the tune.
Já ouvi isso 100 vezes. O que brilha para mim são os arranjos vocais incrivelmente bonitos que complementam tão bem a melodia.
The music language is universal! World needs more music and less business, please!🙏
Glauco, so many governments push the concept of joining the military under the guise of preserving freedom. It would be so nice if the governments instead, encourage their youth to go in the direction that we see here.
THIS is how "Triste" and bossa nova were meant to sound at their best. Armengou is breathtakingly talented in her ingeniously tenderly evocative nuanced style, as are the other powerfully supporting vocalists, and bossa nova is her calling. The band is world class phenom and the horns were intoxicating in their "spot-on-ness". Bravo! Can't wait to be buying CDs titled the likes of, "Alba Canta Jobim," "Alba Canta Gilberto," "Alba Canta Caymmi," because the world is her oyster. How long must we wait?
Donald Boudreau, "very" well said. You're a wordsmith. I like it. When you speak of her, "evocative nuanced style," I absolutely love what she does starting @ 5:19 when she reaches down to hit those low notes. She is a jewel on many levels. To my dismay, Bossa Nova didn't last that long in the U.S., but it's alive and well!!
Talking about nuances... Supporting vocalists and not backing vocalists so well said. Amazing harmonies
Exatamente!
Also check out other stuff by those "supporting vocalists" Andrea Motis (trumpet), Rita Payés (trombone), Magalí Datzira (double base) etc. etc.
Joan Chamorro finds and develops talented girls as you watch, most of them multi-instrumentalists, too!
th-cam.com/video/7zIa__k9un0/w-d-xo.html
Update: also talented boys :) Here’s a view of the "incubator" in action:
th-cam.com/video/VlVwowQdUzQ/w-d-xo.html
@Donald Boudreau Wait not for CDs - www.jazztojazz.com provides a whole bunch of them, including one dedicated to Alba!
Alba sings like how she plays trumpet, so much smooth control on every syllable and note, I don't know the musical terms!
Alba does this one better than anyone‼️. I have never heard or seen a band with so many talented female singers…Andrea, Eva, Rita, Magali, Joanna, Alba, Abril, Claudia…and on and on‼️
I am 88 year old, I was 14yrs. When I bought my first jazz record in George Str. Hove- on- Sea
This gives me joy to hear young jazz musician playing and singing.
Alba’s voice is absolutely beautiful.
I keep coming back to this. One of my most favorite performances ever.
i m in love with this song, the interpretation is so nice , the voice of Alba Armengou is magic !
Alba and the gang ! How BEAUTIFUL !
No matter how many times I hear this, it kills me every time, how beautifully it is performed by everyone involved. This is music at its finest. Congrats to all involved and bless you.
Totally agree.
...wish they don’t grow old and just keep singin’ like this forever...a form of art, indeed
RAY DEWEY yesss love it
You are right on, yet we have 400+ thumbs down. Rappers?
I downloaded it on MP3 today.
3 years later and I'm still coming back. Great stuff, Joan!
Likewise, this is among my favourite jazz tracks.
Alba's innocence here really shines through, and those sax solos!!!
@@jameslove-vani797 this sax solos is RIGHT. Man, they’re both just terrific.
Everything about this composition is right! It is a musical gift to the world.
And from a school! Incredible. I have been seeing live jazz since the 1950s in Chicago, I live in New Orleans now, and I was a Horn player for 20 years. This is one of the best tracks I have EVER seen!
@@rogercorby5497 Hey Roger, Alba was born in 2002, have you ever seen a 14 (or perhaps a 15) year-old sing at such a high professional level? I still can't get over just how talented these kids are. And not just the vocalists, but the entire ensemble. They're adults now, of course, and still blowing everyone away. So, if you liked this, check out Andrea's cover of Bli-Blip @ th-cam.com/video/iGdVgfdZKmE/w-d-xo.html - I was listening to the SAJB for two or three years before this popped up on my feed, as it didn't get many views. Watching this three time in a row, I thought, okay Andrea has studied Ella, she's attempting to channel Ella and technically she's doing fine, but Ella must boom this out - comparatively speaking. Finding a copy of Ella's cover of this stunned me, it was almost exactly the same! Cheers :)
@@rickemmet1104 -- I find myself worrying about Alba, Rita, Eliia, and the Motis sisters making it through the pressures of young womanhood so they can share this beautiful talent with the world. This may be controversial, but i think Albas voice is actually better for club-type jazz than Ella Fitz. But in terms of tone quality, not Ellas ability to sing scat. I havent heard Alba sing scat, yet. I really hope they get a gig in New Orlenas eventually. Maybe for Jazz Fest next year---
@@rogercorby5497 Yes, it will be great if they can continue to produce such fine music. Alba is my favorite vocalist of the group, though the rest are extremely impressive. One of my older brothers was in the Jazz Ensemble in high school and wanted to become a professional vocalist. I keep sending him links to these videos; I think he's growing tired of my enthusiasm for these folks. Alba has such a unique voice, it's unlike any other voice I know. I sent my brother a link to "Farol Da Barra" and mentioned that when Alba sings in her lower register, her voice sounds like dark chocolate. I never even thought of such a thing for any other vocalist. Hope they get to NO, I'd like to see them in such historical environs!
@@rickemmet1104 Just for the record, New Orleans has a lot more going on, musically, than what people realize. The historical environs dont play that much traditional (e.g., Dixieland) jazz anymore (always some, but mostly in turista joints) . But NOLA is also famous for New Orleans R&B, Bounce, Fats Domino, and a big scene of Progressive Jazz. Working a 9 to 5 regular corporate job and catching big names like John Lee Hooker or Bonnie Raitt when they blow through town to do a brief gig is not easy, unless you bring a bed into your office to catch up on sleep a little bit at lunchtime. I always wished the lifestyle was more like Barcelona!
That young lady on the drooms is like a metronome. And I LOVE this singer!
Music teacher here in Southern California - This gives me hope for The future of jazz in our world. I have to say how simply beautiful this piece is. Almost infectious bringing a tear to my eye. And every single time I listen to it, I am inspired. Thank you for blessing this week ( mine) with these wonderful sounds Played over and over, -making me smile.
Right! They are so young but so authentic. This isn't pastiche; they really mean what they're doing.
As both a semi-pro musician and former educator, I absolutely agree man
I totally agree...
This music has truly blessed me during these trying times. It brings me joy each time I listen. And I listen daily...
I can see how proud Mr Chamorro is of his young people as he plays his bass and conducts the music. Great job!!! Bravo!!!
Agreed, but I'd add: it gives me hope for the future of music in our world, not just jazz. :)
Same feeling here, tears in both eyes!
I just love her voice so much!!!
What is to say about a teacher, that is able to put together such an ensemble. Lord, the voices are melting beautiful...
What is special about the young musicians? It is the naturalness and the joy of the music that they radiate. And something else very important: they are themselves and not copies of anyone. And when they present something, it is as it is and not a repetition of what has already been heard. Bravo - that is something special that you should keep for as long as possible. There are already enough copies. Thank you for being who you are.
Incredible how good is the drummer with only 14 years old at the time of recording, perfect rhythm, great technique
Excellent drummer. Congrats from Brazil \o/
True!
When I first understood the bossa rhythm, I found it difficult to teach it to friends who thought it was just cha cha.
Imagine how it would sound without the drummer!
She deserves more than special mention, keeping things going with the great sax soloists excursions!
Let's see her smile sometimes!
Absolutely fantastic! What a phenomenal achievement - and these singers... What a musical treasure!
This is sanity and beauty in a confused world.
0:25 THAT VOICE CLUSTER WAS INCREDIBLE OMG
The definitive recording
I love bossa Nova music, this is one of the best..amazing musicians..great singer..
Agradeço os sábios João Chamorro e Joan Monné para ter trazido à nossa vista e aos nossos ouvidos um quarteto divino catalã harmonizando, em legitimo brasileiro, uma melodia inesquecível dos tempos de delicadeza musical que o Tom ele-mesmo tivesse adorado. Imagine só a reação de Tom e Vinicius à voz de Alba Armengou!
My thanks, as a retired musician, to Joan Chamarro for dedicating his life to music and these kids that all the world can enjoy now and into the future.
This performance still brings tears to my eyes even though I have watched and listened to it many times. Thanks to all.
Luigi Grasso is world class. His improvisation is electrifying.
Alba is amazing, beautiful voice,
such a pretty face 👏👏👏
God, she knows how to sing.
Love and peace.
This is entirely, absolutely intoxicating.
I've never heard such young people harmonising so well together I've watched it so many times and I still love it in fact I will always love it as I will all their music
So fantastic in any way, harmonys, solos and my favourite the drummer, such perfect tempo.
