Let me get this right, this woman had enough oxygen to play, sing AND dance and look and sound fucking fabulous doing so?? LOVE IT 🙇🏻‍♀️🙇🏻‍♀️❤️

[fredweller]

She tap-danced great. Her singing was spot-on.
But girl got a set of lungs on her! She owned that trumpet. That ain't easy. Props.

[georgebeltran]

WOW! That lady has jazz in the blood, shes a natural for this.

[swapbloodcell]

i love how Gunhild Carling has so much fun while doing her performances. This is what people mean when they say "get a job that you love"

[rbeigh]

Gunhild Carling ROCKS! Her trumpet playing is ripping, powerful, and spot on! Her vocal range and punch is tremendous. This woman has talent! I owned a trumpet years ago, and found it a very hard instrument to play, despite hours of practice. And then just to really drive it all home, she drops some wicked tap steps??? THIS is what real skill and talent look like. Lovely!!!

[terrywestbrook-lienert]

This woman is the complete package: Jazz chanteuse, instrumentalist par excellence, tap dancer!
What is it that Gunhild Carling cannot do?!?

[deldia]

I love how her phrasing sounds like she's going to complete miss what the phrase is about but always pulls back to make sweet jazz.

[gabe_s_videos]

She sings, tap dances AND plays trumpet.

WHERE DOES HE FIND THESE PEOPLE??

[sawlay]

She is really talented and incredible lady. I love her music and dance and playing instruments

PMJ! It's been 5 years since the last Gunhild Carling performance. We want more Gunhild Carling! Her performance is always raw energy!

[Zendath]

It's good to see that they got a Swedish jazz musician to do the cover. Great work!

[r.p.]

Gunhild is not from this period. She’s been sent from the past, from the roaring twenties right out of Cotton Club! Love every second of it!

[arponto]

I'm impressed. She dances, sings and plays the trumpet.
I loved it.

[flavianesilva]

Amazing!! This singer is fabulous, has charisma, personality, a breath that takes our breath away. She is a real charm.
ABBA would be extremely grateful for such a perfect interpretation.

Love Abba, since I was a kid, one of the best bands and music that I have enjoyed. Postmodern Jukebox, just brilliant, taking a legendary song like this and making it even more amazing with their rendition and arrangement, great style, musically and vocally. What a treasure this group is and how amazing they make sound even some of the most amazing songs, doing it better and better. Love it.

[gussy]

This woman does more than just play the trumpet. She slays it. Fantastic.

[sleven]

Takes a Swedish lady to sing a Swedish song.

Alltid kul att se Gunhild på PMJ. :)

[manueldriggs]

I am blown away by her trumpet playing. She was channeling Louie!!! I love how she plays that trumpet. She is an incredible entertainer. I love her voice and her tap dancing!! That is my dream girl!!!

[elizabethclaiborne]

As a New Orleanian who goes to see Dixieland all the time, I am impressed, this lady really understands the music. Plenty of PMJ videos get styles a bit muddled, but this is all out Satchmo.

[veggiet]

YES! I hope you do more Abba, in different styles!
