[OceanAndSilence]

[felatioable]

who is the upright bass player...she is very attractive (that's cleanest way I could put it)

[Datakrystian]

@felatioable That's Lindsay, have met her in person tonight and she IS very attractive, so IS Raissa and the rest of the band really! :P What a performance! mesmerizing...

[joannepsi]

They're very......Radio 2.

[usedfuzzbox]

Another gem from JH, really must remember to watch it more often!

[orient1961]

I always think of James Bond when I hear this track.

[neverforeverkate]

So, that was the unforeseen tragedy. Mark Horwood died.:0(

[MrScuta]

[richardnixonisgod]

keyboard player. who was the main composer. who tragically committed suicide

[SephBentos]

the album is brilliant. i wish i could write just magnificent music :)

[DrkPacific]

fab. Saw them at the Secret garden party. very very good

[tomascress]

Fell in love with them at Latitude 2009....a feast of musical pleasure for the ears, just stunning...

[agmoldham]

I also saw them at Glastonbury and Wonderland is a beautiful song.

[daffodilhead]

Saw them on the Avalon stage at Glastonbury 2009..... Truly Fabulous!

[OldGothGranny]

Love this group - such a feast for the ears - BI'm thinking Paris, circus, 1950s big band- just great!

[Magicbrianwood]

Yeah even a bit of Bjork lingering round the edges too. The album is breathtaking in its playful melodic orchestration. They deserve to be huge.

[purple222purple]

Lovely very different makes me think of when I was a little girl ahhhh!

[gossipgirl1992]

brilliant song, love the mummers!

[Allphabetts]

Thankyouu :)

[Allphabetts]

Does anyone know the Instrument she is playing at the start of the perfomance ?

thankyou : )

[Bitsforboats]

I think its a toy mouth organ. She says she likes toy instruments!

[Trollbar]

I think it is a Melodica as used also by Lisa Hannigan who will be on Later in a couple of weeks . She also uses Harmoniums ,stylophone ,trumpets . strings and glockenspiels but in a different way to this so the sound and stlye is not the same .

[mjmaule]

It's a Melodica

[daiethom]

its called a melodica!!

[impbr]

I thought these and The Specials were the highlights. She looks a bit like Lily Allen and sounds a bit like Nicole Atkins. Both plusses imo. Loved it.

[sm20662]

absolutely fab..first saw this on friday sitting bored in jail..lifted the whole night !

[theflyingteabag]

Hadn't heard of The Mummers before later with Jools, pleased they got to play to a wider audience, very talented musicians and a breath of fresh air.

[underpants1965]

This gets better & better with each listen!! Fabulous musicians playing fabulous music........pinch me, is it still 2009? not a trace of a sample anywhere!!

ps. if you like this, you'll love Bic Runga, try her out on You Tube.

[poodledoggygirl]

Fabulous stuff...so unusual and fascinating, truly original. I hope all their stuff is half as good as this !

[whielden]

Thanks to Jools, I will be buying this for certain... I love this style of vocal...

[jonaywishbone]

Could be a 70's James Bond song played to a gliding silhouetted beauty?Maybe, apart from the circus bits at the start and end.

[mluc16]

love this x

[RECHL]

love this song!

[EFTI2K7]

I feel I am in Paris. Very refreshing.  Love the sound and keep playing it. Keeping in time with our spring season. Good luck for the future.

[EFTI2K7]

very refreshing and origin. makes you drift in a european setting......

[TomyFlemba]

Indeed. Can't stop singing wonderland (badly)

[earlgrey1956]

Once heard, one tends to hum it all day.Quite haunting

[Jaicrewe1]

Fantastic band with a cool european sound, could easily be the soundtrack an early 70s french film..
