My drums have been stacked in the basement for 10years - I haven't played in a band for over 20 years -- I'm going downstairs to set them up - Thanks Pomplamoose

A couple of days ago, at the age of 64, I discovered ELO's "Mr. Blue Sky" and tonight I discover Pomplamoose. It's been a very good week!!!

[jayyates]

I'm 60 yrs old. This is my all-time favorite pop song! Brings back my teen years and my skateboarding team. Thank you!

My son Christopher passed away in his sleep on April 11th 2020 and each time I start getting to the point that I just can't hold it together I put this song on and it picks me up. It was one of his favorite songs along with your sweet child of mine. Your music means more than you'll ever know to me and my family. Thank you

[derekjbarbee]

I love how much fun they're clearly having while making this.

[brdrummond]

Does anyone else PHYSICALLY feel different when you see these folks having the grandest time together with music? I get goosebumps, I can't stop moving and it's hard not to smile. This is the kind of feel-good content everyone should have more of in their life. Love y'all and your work, I discovered this over a year ago and I still can't get over it. All the love from Texas ❤❤

[savvyMichael]

Nataly's laugh at 1:50 gets me every time.

[swoards]

My daughter was born just 4 days ago. This song reminds me of her everytime I look at her, it's enough to make a grown man cry. Thank you for this fantastic cover.

[madamedent]

When this popped up in my subs I thought, "You mean they hadn't done this one?" It just seemed right up your alley! 10/10 will listen to a thousand more times

[zachlewis]

I have struggled with a lot of things my entire life but the last year has been especially difficult because of problems with my brother. Every time I hear this song the clouds part and the sun shines brightly for four minutes.

[rudiniemeijer]

As a life-long fan of the Electric Light Orchestra I must admit this cover does honor the original song and adds chearfull notes to it. It made me happy :-) Well done and thanks for this amazing song!

[bobcole]

I’m no professional musician. I play music because it’s fun. It’s a rare treat to see musicians having fun while making great music. I’m just sorry it took me so long to find you guys.

[langerm]

Pomplamoose is THE BEST internet music discovery I’ve made. Your arrangements and performances are great but the positive energy and joy you deliver is endless! If you ever tour in the Midwest I’ll be there! THANKS for all you do.

[rafaelparedes]

I love when her voice cracks almost laughing at minute 1:51 That's the cutest thing ever! I've heard the song many times and just got that!

[deltavee]

Nahneen's backups are clean and pure. She has a beautiful voice.

[ferda]

when you're so damn good at bass that your solo gives you an instant horse head

[theoldar]

This feels like a good old-fashioned Pomplamoose cover.

[larrym.]

I love this, and when the band joins in at 3:07 it's a joyous thing!

[rockestee]

Having the camera guys sing was so in the spirit of this song, it all amounts to a wonderous cover!!!




We are long time patrons here of pomplamoose and nataly, ( dot x fan) but my first comment on youtube because the synchronicity of you putting up this song is too wonderful!! Jack, your new super patron concept has you in the roll of mr bluesky. You are living your best self and trying mightily to give back. Connecting with your purpose and you are beaming in your video explaining super patron. ( and i mean a different sort of beaming then your smiling faces in scary pockets... which dArn i love scary pockets too, btw)
The synch comes in double scoop because as soon as i saw it i sent the link to my son who we call mr. blue sky ( his name is sky) and this song has forever been our theme for him. Sky works night and day on creating original content and is a working visual artist. I dont know if he will be able to apply ( he currently is working on a twenty piece commission) but i guess the point is all the mr blueskys in this world are working overtime, and yeah, you will never meet... but i feel comforted in each of your corners you are brightening the days of your followers, jack with millions of, sky with dozens..Its all magical really!

[KeiosKod]

Oh man, I loved that part where everyone started vocalizing too. It’s such a delight to watch you guys perform.
