Sounds just like it should... nice one the band and the BBC. This show's worth the licence fee. But I don't believe this was 1995, as advertised. I was hoping for the original line-up... no offence to the current crew – it sounded awesome.
Note to petrolhead Jay Kay... er, Emergency on Planet Earth! When you gonna learn? Thanks for the first three albums but maybe you should listen to them again... IMHO, when Zender and Smith baled, the wheels came off the Jamiroquai juggernaut. No offence to the new guys, but...
And I don't imagine the original fanbase is too impressed with yet another song about cars. Travelling Without Moving should have been the end of it (great live version of that recorded at Abbey Road is here somewhere).
@soniq351 You could be a bit fair, i wouldnt call them albums a fail, there style has just changed allot, but ye i prefer the older albums. But i like the new ones.
Why argue? If you like Stevie W. and you like JK/Jamiroquai....listen to both. No need to say one is less or more. They are two different performers....lighten up.
I'm not arguing I love JAM,but alot people of today have respect whats hot today only.They fail to acknowledge musical genius of one music's innovators,but praise the clones and knockoffs to the high heavens.
Exactly. Thats what i always think too when I see all these comments on YouTube. Its so senseless... People should widen their horizont and enjoy the diversity of music instead of argueing like school-boys.
As far as I'm concerned, Jamiroquai, before they became bastardised with session musicians after Stu and Toby's departure were the last ounce of true, non-manufactured genuine musical talent in British charts.
hahahahahaha, "u stupid child". nice, i agree wth ya dude, u really are a stupid child. hahahahaha, wana go play tag? or listen to some blink? pffft, wat a spon.

Just goes to show bands with a minimum of talent and a lack of originality can be succesful. Out of the 3 i think that Jamiroquai were the most hit and annoying. I love proper soul and funk but they turned it into utter shit.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I presume that your being sarcastic? How much Stevie Wonder have you listened to.
People like Stevie Wonder,Gil Scott Heron,Curtis Mayfield were not only musically talented they were/are also people with something to say. Jamoroquai have a lack of talent and nothing to say. Awful band.
i reccomend that you watch the interview with jay kay on his music videos and other interviews on youtube b4 you start talking about things which you obviously know nothing about. i agree that stevie wonder is talented but he aint a patch on jamiroquai. if you still think jamiroquai lack talent, 25 000 000 album buyers disagree with you lol.
dude I really like Jamiroquai, Jay Kay's a great singer in his own way, and they have some of the best hooks in modern music, but Stevie Wonder is in a different league, Im sorry, but its just so true.
If you want to talk statistics, Stevie has had 20 US number ones, and sold over 100 million albums.
He also started recording aged 11, and is a multi-instrumentalist as well as excellent singer and songwriter. On his 1973 album innervisions he played all the instruments. 'nuff said.
i'm not denying that stevie wonder is one of the most talented men who ever lived and i never said that he is less successful than jamiroquai. In my opinion however, the music produced by jamiroquai is better, funkier and also it never gets old. Some of stevie's songs are starting to sound a little dated now.
This is so sad, some of you all know nothing about FUNK. I love Jamiroquai but they will never reach Stevie Wonder status.Part of the world(US) knows nothing of Jamiroquai.Stevie Wonder is GLOBAL. Stevie has 22 Grammys, the most won by any artist google it
Stevie Wonder isnt really funk, though is he? Most of his stuff is soul, only some of his much earlier material could be called funk, songs like higher ground and superstition.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Stevie has done it all,r&b,funk,pop gospel,classical(pastimes paradise) he cant be put in just 2 genre Stevie is one of the original crossovers. Pure funk unadulterated James brown, bootsy collins, parliement/funkalic etc... Not Jamiroqui
what a pointless argument. jamiroquai has done a ton of music too, bossa nova, jazz-funk, samba, ballads, r&b, rock, electro-funk...just be happy bands like jamiroquai are around keeping the funk alive. if it's good enough for stevie (he really likes their material) it should be good enough for you.
um..ok. yeah. well, so does just about every other musician. this is why your argument is pointless. jamiroquai can be great without being better than stevie wonder. they're in different eras doing different types of performance. get over it.
jamiroquai are amazing, this song doesn't suck, you have to get used to it. i would reccomend listening to a different version though this is fairly weak.
no, i know the guy is fucking awesome, but he's also hilarious in his own way, i meant no disrespect i watch all of the jools holland videos on youtube
REAL MUSIC! the king of funk still has it. Jay Kay has been singing professionally since 1992 and now in 2008, there is a new album on the way, i can't wait! Not as good as the main vein performance though!
It's ok to make different music on every album, but not to have so many band members changed.. I mean, the bassist, is this the second or third one since Zender left? Man.. I miss Zender, Buchanan, and Toby Smith.
@pilsenschop get over it. Thats the music industry. Thats living in a band. Some people change their priorities and leave - others get kicked out because they are pains in the backside or have massive egos. Enjoy it for what it is.
@Raybrennan17 you are the one that needs to get a life, replying to something I said over 2 years ago. really, what's wrong with missing a great musician whose style and technique helped to develope the band's sound? you obviously don't care about that, you wouldn't mind if all the band members where some session musicians as long as Jay hits the right notes, you retard.
@Raybrennan17 You say that band members can just be replaced? What about when those band members are contributing to/ writing that funky music? You have to know that Jay doesn't singlehandedly write every song.
Fabulous. Great playing, great singing and good songs. Jason Kay is so obviously influenced by Stevie Wonder (Who isn't). It's great that younger bands are pumping out good funk like this today. Keep on funkin' JayKay!!!
i'm so glad that musicians like this exists...nowadays everybody is listening to some reggeton daddy yankee's bullshit that is not even music. He's retired..right?
yeah..it grew on me a lot, but still definitely not in my top 25. worse: black devil car, hot tequila brown, hell..let's list all of dynamite save 2 or 3 tracks.
lol I kinda agree - the earlier stuff was VERY different and thats what made them so good. I wish I was clubbing it when they were pumping cosmic girl and virtual insanity.. they were the good times
Their earlier stuff WAS different..and thats a good thing..bands, just like people, should change, as long as they keep the same level of greatness, which they do!!
In complete agreement! I like both but I grew up more with jamiroquai, amazing band!!
