Oh my God. How can you kill this song's groove to this extent? Bass player needs shooting. And the singer needs to stick to the melody. Just as well it fades right?

Found it hard to get past the intro vocals. Yikes, and the constant slapping. NOOOOO

[ahpook]

i thought this thread was going to be about me

[Thunderthumbs]

What utter w***fest.

The bass player needs a serious talking too. It's not about you, you tit. It's about the song. There's a reason the bass line is what it is. It works. Yours doesn't. Cock.

Absolutely awful cover.

[Judo Chop]

He looks so pleased with himself

[TheGreek]

I forced myself to watch 1:32 of it - imagine if you'd been in the audience and paid to be subjected to this...

[EmmettC]

To be honest, if I was in the audience, the vocals would make me leave before the bass started. And once everybody had gone home he might aswell enjoy himself.

What do you expect? This is a typical scenario played out every other night all over the country.
Office workers who like to think they're a bit 'special', because they're in a 'band'.

Should we judge them for it, lest we be judged..? YEAH!!

Fair play to them for gigging and stuff, keys quite faithful

I wish I hadn't started my day by watching/listening to this.

Like a very very bad Butlins flashback

[xgsjx]

Do some folk just not know when they actually can't sing? & does anyone else in the band think she can sing!

[Prime_BASS]

I have a bit of vom in my mouth....

[JakeBrownBass]

Eeesh, the bass players heard the original and decided to totally ignore the groove and feel of the song. And don't get me started on the singer.

[skej21]

Typical case of 'run before you can walk' musicality... Singer trying to be fancy without having the technique to back it up (therefore fails with her timing and intonation) and same can be said of most of the players.

Bassist has obviously only just (half) learnt a single basic slap technique and has tried to implement it in a song that doesn't need it, to the detriment of the ensemble, the original groove, his own timing and any form of taste.

I bet he also calls himself a 'semi-professional' or 'professional' musician because he gets paid. Muppet.

I don't care. Every post from EBS is a moment of joy in an otherwise putrid modern hell, just so long as he doesn't change his avatar.

I'm not looking so good at the moment... my butt has gone a bit saggy and I'm carrying a little excess weight. Rather than update my avatar, I'll be heading for the gym. The bikini still fits though.

Equally as marvelous

I guess thet's why the bass player's head remains in shade most of the time.
But, as the rest of you, it's the vocals I can't stand. Ouch!

I find this even more offensive. I don't like "Somebody Else's Guy" anyway, so that original video was like watching someone splat a custard pie in Rupert Murdoch's face.
Watching this version of "What's Going On?" is like watching someone punch my mum in the face.

Sorry about that - but she kept calling my cock 'Mr Dobby'.
