Zero 7 "Swing"

[vikramk123]

She is playing a Harmonium :)

[fiveinslide6]

There something so bizarre. The album version is tuned down a major third and there's no credit for #3's vocals. They did something weird here. Great band! The new century's Alan Parsons Project.

[20yearsofhell]

who's the girl on the squeezebox?! i like her!

[JerDog1984]

@20yearsofhell Olivia Chaney.. What a beaut

[daemonna]

girl knows how to feel music, so stfu haters...

[swissmissblackburn]

What an amazing voice!!! Gives me chills!

[drtascam]

Too clean. Doesn't have the "edge" of the original. Sorry.

[ozbucket69]

@drtascam ahah the "edge" ?! what are you on about? makes no sense..

[alexgfbatista]

Where's Sia???? She is the one singing this song on the album Yeah Ghost... I kind like this girl but I like Sia more.

[ukaniko]

@alexgfbatista

Sia is not the person singing this song on the album. In fact, I don't think she appears on Yeah Ghost at all :(

[JerDog1984]

@alexgfbatista Binki Shapiro sings the album version.. Makes me goosebuymp a li'l

[cheeeeeeeef]

Right slap bang in my happy place.

[TheTabitha75]

this is my smile song :)

[jafooky123]

she has a squeezebox!!!

[rossbyers1]

So so beautiful.... that tears are running down my cheeks. The unwavering dedication of the musicians playing instruments to the mesmerising vocals has truly moved me. Perfection.

[juraci]

Great song!! 

[BigOldMrKnish]

there are few things as fetching as a beautiful women with a beautiful voice.  this, i know to be true...

[bbillyson]

i personally like this better than the album version

[dannybighair]

Take it back. Everything about this is great.

[dannybighair]

It feels weird to hear the song in this key. I'm not sure if it entirely suits it. Nevertherless, great performance and a great song.

[zoltanycias]

Sorry beautiful singer but... Sia is the best to sing Zero 7 songs...

[JerDog1984]

Hmmm still my favourite song 1 year on.. Love Zero 7!

[Bokmoh]

OMFG!!! I remember seeing this performed live in Montreal, and I cried like a baby. The recording never quite did it for me again, but this video brought me back to that moment, and damn those tears came.

Zero 7 is divine

[Belrespiro5]

@Bokmoh The reason the recording 'never quite did it' for you is because it was done by Binki Shapiro, whereas THIS is the girl you saw with 07 in Montreal, OLIVIA CHANEY!

[nubbs]

i don't like people who don't like this song

[robpri]

@nubbs oh fuck off

[nubbs]

@robpri

i don't like you

[mudtanned1]

gives me chills. splendid song!

[greivaj]

nice cover, tho it sounds much like sarah mclachlan. loved the accordion :)

[dirtybnp]

ooooh this is heartwarming.

[mrsbrandonflowers1]

I prefer binki Shapiro's voice :3

[enigmatically]

I love this song. It's interesting to hear it "raw" before the post-production

[mar33web]

Is this in 5/4 time signature? Sounds like it....

[mathieuemi666]

@mar33web Looks more like 3/4

[mathieuemi666]

@mar33web BTW, a good 5/4 example would be "Take Five" from Paul Desmond

[mathieuemi666]

@mar33web He played it with Dave Brubeck. There are some videos on YouTube. He's playing alto sax

[firestar23]

song is just beautiful

[grudgede]

Great stuff!

Much more better than on the CD!

[Belrespiro5]

@grudgede 

[jamontoastst]

Who would dislike this video?? Do you also dislike sunshine? Happiness? Human companionship? Zero 7 are amazing!!

[grudgede]

@jamontoastst: Yeah! You're absolutely right!

[schmigking]

@jamontoastst hahahaha well said!

[Angeladorian]

i swear i listen to this song 20 times or so a day.

[freetibet84]

what instrument is the singer playing, is that some type of accordion?? thanx.

[Heycountryboy07]

it's a melodeon (traditional type...)

[grudgede]

KCRW is doing great stuff! Zero 7 too ;-)

[altwist42]

loving this song. words seem.. to close to home,. iv bin jamming around with this tune on the double bass, elc folk grooovie. always got time for zero 7

[anorak103]

What a strange editing decision to show the keyboard player fiddling with his headphones for the first line and a half of the vocals when he's not even playing - instead of letting us see, for example, the singer?!

[gongli100]

FAntastic I bought the cd & was totally disappointed that Olivia wasn't on the cd What were they thinking !!!!!!!!!!!

[maszlagma]

@gongli100 She was singing in the song "Pop Art Blue". But yeah she should have sung this song....

[JerDog1984]

@gongli100 Both singers are flawless and it's a struggle picking which one to listen too! Guess I'll just jam both..

[alyosha1974]

Just plain awesome. :) I love Z7 and their sound.

[JerDog1984]

Yes it is!

Well thank you for confirming that! It has been driving me mad!!!!!!!!!! I even looked on Binki's facebook wall and people are leaving comments saying how good she is in Swing... Jeez, what a task

[JerDog1984]

No its not!

[Belrespiro5]

The singer is NOT Binki Shapiro, it's OLIVIA CHANEY, who was with the recent Zero7 tour of the US.

[JerDog1984]

I am wrong! The singer is Binki Shapiro..

[JerDog1984]

I thought Martha Tilston was the vocalist... Maybe I'm wrong....

[JerDog1984]

Favourite song of 2009 - Can't stop listening to it - What an awesome voice! What an awesome group!

[cheeseUout]

nice nice! too bad the singing in this live version is much better than the recording. There's much more...emotion in this one

[DunnLanguage1978]

This is absolutely wonderful. I thought Zero 7 could not do without Sia and Sophie, I guess I was wrong. Everything was perfect. In my top 5 best live performance.

[bkordel]

wow. i'm in love with this song

[OekologiskSmoer]

No Sophie Baker is not with Zero 7 on this tour. This singer is called Olivia Chaney. Great vokal og bringing some new energy to the older Zero 7 tracks aswell.

[Recycleplease27]

Her name is Sophie Baker

[TheOKVideo]

who is the vocalist on this? and is she the original singer used in the track on the album?

[koshulka]

An exquisite piece of music. Melodies like this that are rare to be created and found adorn the musical history...Can someone please tell me the names of the main and backing vocals? Thank you for this!

[AranandEfe]

gorgeous song :) steve buscemi on drums !

[obszczymurka]

Truly beautiful & full of emotions...I fell in love with this song:)

[stuntbikehamster]

simply beautiful

[TheRoxyroux]

so sweet

[igotatundra]

im still hooked on this song. since the release of the album

[jamercado]

lovely!

[dogonaleash]

HOLY SHIT! finally a new video and its awesome!!!

[MarijuanaGood4U]

I'd like to see the 'Binki Shapiro' live version of this amazing song.

[MADRIANG]

QUE HERMOSA ROLA
