Pat Metheny & Anna Mª Jopek - This is not America

[cota2472000]

i agree with aniacancer.WELL SAID !

[rrrickster3137]

When Katrina went down your Right This was not America or in Hindsight it was America showing it's true colors ask The Indians, The Blacks, The Mexicans, The Chinese or should I say anything that wasn't White Anglo.....

[3llerTUBE]

It DON'T get NO BETTER that THIS folks...

[josecastello1]

The bass player is gorgeous!v

[josecastello1]

The bass player is gorgeous!

[AnalogX1]

If you've watched "The Falcon & The Snowman" and understand the premise of the movie, the irony here is intriguing. Okay, Pat.... who do you work for ? :p

[zane1961]

wow

[MarzycielPOLSKA]

She is amazing :  )

[3llerTUBE]

VEN

[3llerTUBE]

DALE.

[3llerTUBE]

Si hay 1 TOCHA má' intrigante que la de la Mª José Navarro, e' ESTA.

[jazz69cat]

them back up dancers ruin it for me... but i would totally eat her asshole!!! lmao

[3llerTUBE]

asqueroso

[jst1998]

never heard such a bad version of this song, an insult to david bowie.

[3llerTUBE]

@jst1998 You're an INSULT yarSELF, my FRIEND...

[mdparra]

Beautiful version, way up in the level with Metheny and the theme.

Thanks, Anna Ma. Jopek.

I don´t see anyone in the crowd complaining.

[exposurejd]

Lighten up, aniacancer....It's even funnier that I've never met a European that could explain how socialism makes any sense to anyone at all! ...Now, can we please get back to the music!

[TheRolmat]

Such a wonderful voice...

[mojovoodoomajic]

I prefer the original which Metheny recorded for The Falcon and The Snowman soundtrack. David Bowie's vocal rendition is much better than Jopek's, but she absolutely kicks ass paired up with Metheny on Are You Going With Me! Check it out.

[rudynx]

om 13 tre jolie  chanson

[Peterbold29]

Beautiful sing, she is beautiful

[MrBasilGanglia]

It's just not my cup of tea. No offence. Good luck to her.

[3llerTUBE]

ALABAO'...

[MrBasilGanglia]

WOW!! She is terrible.

[3llerTUBE]

AsqueROSA

[Sansmesonge]

She looks like Michelle Pfeiffer, but talented.

[leosin03]

@Sansmesonge M. Pfeiffer but "talented"...LOL!!!

[plutaris33]

@Sansmesonge

You obviously never saw Michelle Pfeiffer singing "Making Whoopee" in the 'The Fabulous Baker Boys'

[Sansmesonge]

@plutaris33 Didn't like that movie, I preffer her in "Dangerous liasions".

[persini]

damn shes hot

[chitammuollo]

mamma che fica!

[FazinerosoDruGus]

ok, this is a right performance, any portuguese coffee could find better than this. It is not god but is ok, if she tryed singin not like bowie would been better. Starting is horrible, later is ok.

[Magni76]

I would like to have something else...

[NaNoMetr2333]

I would like to have her voice

[andorkez]

come on, stop criticizing the singer. she does a good performance and she's hot. the fact that you are unable to have sex with such nice women is not a reason to say mean things about her.

[meepala]

haha

[labluvver]

Screw politics, screw pedigree. She looks good and sounds great. Get over it.

[Anoxr0x]

Oh porr pat, didnt expect this one, he is such a great musician he doesnt need any lady gaga type of "speudo musicians" with him ...

[llothar68]

This is bad.

And i'm pretty sure this blond lady don't know anything about chile and other 70'th and 80'th events whe is singing about.

[Gbdukk]

Well yes, you are pretty sure.. And why?

[llothar68]

Google her biography. You will not find anything about political engagement - she's just singing and covering old songs for money.

[Gbdukk]

Well, she is a professional singer. Her profesion is *just* signing :-) And. frankly speaking, she is good at this. No wonder, she has graduated a Fryderyk Chopin University of Music.

Comparing her to David Bowie or 'politically involved' singers is a strange idea. It is like comparing Louis Armstrong to Lady Gaga. They are different. And if you dont like her - no problem: switch to somebody else.

[TheBloodmn]

It's just a good song, she's just a good performer and her sensual diction is pretty good for this composition. As you can see and hear, she's not just singing, she presents this song.

[andorkez]

stop saying what you think about what other people know as long as your arguments are age and hair colour.

[llothar68]

I was also talking about her biography

[drewhet]

Pat's just trying to get with this female. That's the only reason i can think of why he'd do this kind of music.

[BASS71CAGLIARI]

Ah ah ah! Totally agree, you have the reason!

Pat made the second part of the gig in some hotel's room with her!

He's a so awesome artist to do this shit of version! With David Bowie was totally different, she's massacred this song!

[SparklyMusicGoddess]

Well said! I like Bowie WAY better.

She's too sultry. This song is supposed to be eerie with depth that sounds like it's echoing in a chasm; the way Bowie did it. Metheny is awesome in this too. One of the best 80's songs, ever!

[BASS71CAGLIARI]

David Bowie + Pat Metheny, strange and awesome mix!

Bowie made a piece of pop-rock history, Metheny is one of the best jazz-fusion guitarist in the world, together made one of the best song of the '80!! What about Anna M Jopek????

[aniacancer]

It's funny to read all the comments of the English or Americans complaining about Anna's accent. Seriuosly, I've never met any American or English person who could speak any second language. You don't even bother to learn a single sentence in any foreign language but still feel entitled to criticize people's accents. Lol

[urubuqu]

@aniacancer love her accent!

[Pan3405]

very special. I liked it!

[jazz69cat]

the dancers/back up singers look funny when they dance lol

[jazz69cat]

damn she's hott!!!

[emy1968]

mmhh... with david bowie is really different...

[Hadrian44AD]

I'd like to hear her say, "Fisrt we take care of moose and squirrel."

[Throy67]

I like the performance. Her accent gives the song something extras.

[basausi]

Is this post for the sake of your listening pleasure or to pick on accent and such?

Thanks for posting Terradekenders!

[SilencioTuyo]

She's not american, she's polish, but a great singer too! Es una cantante de jazz polaca, muy buena, y Pat, genio absoluto.

[shaten100]

Żadne "mirikul" tylko... "a miracle" Klocobrzuchu77

[keyshiacole53]

how would she know she is not american

[jazz69cat]

id give every dollor i have for her to sit on my face.

[FuckFeminists]

To Travail02, I think in fact that, although not an English accent, it is appropriate exactly because it is a foreign one. After all...this is not America...

[harshmistress]

I don not understand why Pat Metheny cooperates with this Anna. Don't see the great potensial in her performance, or that she matches the Metheny style.

[Travail02]

It's not really Pat Metheny's style either. This is originally a pop-rock hit, after all. The singer, Jopek, doesn't have a western accent either, which hurts the song a little when she sings in English, I think. Listen to Cyraneczka, another song from this Warsaw concert. That song is flawless.

[gavinmcknight]

I don't see any potensial, either. But I do see some potential.

[harshmistress]

You don't and you do? Ok...

[gavinmcknight]

Yes, Exactly. I don't see any potensial - because I don't know what potensial is.

But I do see some potential. Because that's a word I can look up in a dictionary. It has a meaning. :)

[harshmistress]

Well, sorry for the wrong spelling then, Anyqay:I don't like Anna. What Pat sees in here is a big mystery.

[FuckFeminists]

svouras...episis lol

I can speek renohuskerdus language too. frankly I think he/she has a future in the clown industry. Kan du gjore det, Reno? lol

aaah whatever. this concert was incredible.

[renohuskerdu]

"Theese eese note Amereeka" WTF?

Less time spent putting on eye makeup and more time spent on voice coaching would have been a better trade-off.

[kolcobrzuch77]

This is not a mirikul...

[Hydrophobia234]

Anna is great but when it comes to singing in English she should take some accent reduction classes...still like her a lot though

[anandanaga999]

Stone Gorgeous! Yak sey mash>I 'm gonna get me one a them Bohocks...-since my mother 's maiden name was Kozoyed

[aaniunia]

She is a great singer, pianist and composer. Listen to her songs like: Nienasycenie, Cyraneczka, Piosenka dla Stasia or Samej cie nie zostawie.

[dcbf87]

as a brother and music producer i have to wholeheartedly disagree. yes, this vocal cannot touch Bowie's, but how can you make Metheny sound better ? that just sounds stupid.

[rrrickster3137]

First of all this was an inside joke for a friend of mine in the music bus. I forgot to remove the post, the friend was responsible for the Puff Daddy remake of Stings I'll Be Watching You...As far as the statement you made about Bowie's vocals sounding better than Annna Jopek's if you have a good ear for music this version is arranged better more mellower and keeping it real my friend Bowie's voice is not like that, so Please stop riding his jock...Feel Me

[12345galeb67890]

Goddess!!!!

AAA! Not to forget: She has a good voice too!

Thanks for the post.

Greetings from Greece

[svouras]

gamaei h dikia sou e? :PPP

[CelticProgeny]

Stunning performance of this classic. For me Bowie nails it though. You can all have Anna and I'll have the girl in the middle of the backing singers,.. perfect.

[OlymPigs2010]

Greed-Oil-Corporats-Zionists-F­ascism-Expanding Police State and over a Million innocent people murdered in Iraq and Afghanistan...so far...this "Really Really Is America" today!!!

Sha-La-La-La-La? No its more like Ha-Ha-Ha---Ha-Ha!!!

[nayanjade]

i agree and russia too

[kossmikham]

Holy God is that woman gorgeous!! I had never heard of her. Where do they make women like this?

[VeinMichal]

in Poland :)

[kossmikham]

Well then long live Poland. I must visit there sometime :) Anna Maria is a goddess!

[dologowania]

yes, she is. we are proud of You Anna!

[dorciaruczaj]

Jacy byli Polacy kiedys to ja nie wiem..widze jak sie róznia teraz od reszty swiata.

Trzeba byc człowiekiem dobrym i kazdy człowiek na ziemi najpierw mysli ze jest człowiekiem a dopiero potem długo ze jest dodatkowo francuzem, argentynczykiem, rosjaniniem.W Polsce jest odwrotnie-i ja tego nie pojmę, czasem długo trzeba zeby w Polaku wzbudzic człowieka...

[ja72wol]

Chyba przyjacielu piszesz o jakimś równoległym świecie. Faktycznie niewielu powie o tym tak otwarcie jak Polacy i tak głośno, ale w rzeczywistości ... w rzeczywistości to szacunek do innych nacji ma niewielu poza Polakami właśnie.

[dorciaruczaj]

Tylko polak moze sie sczycic swoja nieudolnoscia w tworzeniu panstwa, jedyna zasługa polaków jako narodu to to ze umieli powstania robic, tylko po co?

Ania-moja wokalistka tez jest dumna ze swojej narodowosci ale jej wybaczam :)

[SaintForeverBlue]

Oh, Anna Marie, just take your clothes off!

[inialny]

Pat doskonale rozumie dlaczego dziewczyna woli Polske od Ameryki.. KULTURA.. on tez by sie chcial urodzic tam gdzie jego przodkowie

[summersbr1]

Why cant we just hear and appreciate the music without all the mindless crap!!!!

[dorciaruczaj]

Ludzie przesatancie dla zdrowia własnego pisac takie rzeczy Ona jest Polka , Polska !!! itd. Mało wam ze wyjezdzacie sie dorobic na wszcesniejszych trudach innych narodowosci , dla pieniedzy, cwaniaki?, trezba sie wziac za siebie wtedy nie bedzie komorek w mózgu kryczacych ja polak !!! wyprodukuja sie normalne jak wszedzie !!! to frustrujace czytac takie komentarze , naprawde

[paulfx]

This is not America. This is Poland!

[dorciaruczaj]

POLAND ??? hehe , and what? Is this any specific reason for being proud of this nationaly? I hope not....

I have not seen any French German etc who said Oh FRANCE oh GERMANY !!! that is why they are heathly normal rich states !!! think of it :) I live in Poland and I can see that people do nothing exept saying: I am proud of Poland ...This is ridiculous...

But ok this concert is in Poland, never mind

[soromon29]

Wel, obviously you are Polish (form your nockname) and you are a polish-hater - which contredicts your statement that every Polish is proud of Poland. Lol. You are just stupid. Every person who likes the place (s)he lives in is proud of it. German or other, they are proud.

[bowlingcamps]

Sha-la-la-la-la!!!!

They're looking like Go-Go-s, when they sing it.

Funny!!!

[szarikgoldap]

nie ma jak to polka

[stettinshark]

I love Bowie's version, but Anna Maria's is at least so good and hallucinating. I'd like to hear them perform it together:)

all the musicians at this gig are perfect, Pat of course, but I'd like to draw your attention at the pianist.

[molsuzero]

YALALALALA:@

[webitow]

hell yeah, terrific, terrific. XDD!!!!!!!!!

[Priyesh0804]

wow!!! what a terrific version of this classic Methany/Bowie piece.

[malenstwo162]

She's Polish :) I'm proud of her as a Pole! Really great artist.

[jazz69cat]

sounds like she saying 'miracle. lol

[SaintForeverBlue]

definitely "miracle"

LOL but her beauty makes up for it. sigh.

[soromon29]

Well... coz that's what the lyric says... Lol

[gunthernorman]

I would crawl 7 miles over broken glass to lick her shit.

[dragmio]

I'm always saying: there's no blonde like a slavic blonde. This woman proves it better than any other. She is absolutely gorgeus, and seems so natural, without any affectation. Truly beautiful. And I don't even like blondes. :)

[SaintForeverBlue]

You kidding?

Everybody likes blondes.

Oprah is the anti-blonde

[dragmio]

I'm not everybody.

[apazeia]

hahaha shalalalala chorus guy at 1:28, hahaha

i keep going to 1:28 LOL

I am sure the pure guy regrets it.

LOL Sha-la-la-la-la!

[TomiBonTomi]

Hehe, ja schto to ponimaju, molodec! :)

Pozdravljaju tvojego ruskego druga, Monty!

Ja govorju plocho po ruski.

[inialny]

the pianist's name is Lesław Możdżer, which touches clously our common indoeuropean core!!

[BelaLugosit]

Nice rendering of the song, they make a good team.

The lightshow projections made it look a bit more like "This is not Anemone".

2008 they released an album together, based on the one created in Poland a couple of years back.

[BelaLugosit]

.. as in "Sea Anemone" by the way ... :)

[smithfield06]

shes polish they are beautiful and talanted

[Zpiri]

Mi Reina!!!!! y que decir del maestrazo Metheny.

[cosiogalko]

Very well done. Anna Maria Jopek is a great musical talent and Pat Metheny's musical history speaks for itself. This intire show is priceless. To be treasured for years to come. Its was recorded in 2002 and is still growing in popularity. The rendition of "Are you going with me" in this concert footage, brought me to tears the first time I saw it. The level of complexity created by Anna and Pat and the incredable musicans accomponying them. 10 out of 10 performance. Perfect.

[hiolka]

Straszne co chórek robi z rękami w 1:29 ;-)

Dokładnie wiem o co Ci chodzi. Nieadekwatne do tego dzieła.

To było do hiolka, dałem replay ale sie na górze wkeiło.

[Azorka82]

Oh yeah, I've also commented numerous times around these PM/JMK videos about how cute the back up girls are. But again, not meant in a bad way, just a sincere compliment.

[Azorka82]

This is so freakin' good I'm afraid to touch my (computer) mouse.

[alba0104]

Awesome!

[alba0104]

Me encanta el sonido del bajo y la guitarra sobre todo al principio de la canción!

Genial!

[rotcehleafar]

beautifull song, beautifull girl...

YOU SEE, YOU SEE! Newer isn't better... Technological advancement notwithstanding, The Upright Bass Kicks Ass!!!

[triangle3333]

vraiment c'est trés belle

[peterlanghaar]

her voice is amazing, but i don't like Matheny.

[gigi20026]

Her voice works great with the song! And added irony that she is not American.

[ibs11]

polish girl

[motyleasi]

u should hear her polish lirics....ooohhh....or rather - understand - clear poetry :)

[Azorka82]

Agreed, gigi20026. I just wrote on another video where they're paired up that it's just what Pat metheny has been missing all these years. Feline femininity to accompany him. This is good, surprised I haven't fallen out of my chair.

[Azorka82]

About the "feline femininity" and falling out of chair comments. It must come across bad, but not meant sexist or anything. Much lost in computer translation. Can't see me to know I'm probably King of the metrosexuals. What ever a metrosexual is. I once rode a Seattle metro bus when a guy seated beside me seemed to be enjoying the trip a little too much. I didn't say anything, he reached his stop and gets up and goes "thank you" to me. Wondered later if he was a "metro"-sexual. Ha ha.

[Loiro7]

I love Metheny, his music is a philosophy is life!

[dannyearthstar]

she's captivating...

[cosiogalko]

We had a great time on the tour.

[rotcehleafar]

beautifull.....

[livenownotlater]

Simply beautiful...

[haroof]

uh no thanks.

bowie pls.

[buenoverde]

nothing compared to David Bowie live

but I give her credit for trying

[hiolka]

Podoba mi sie aranzacja, ale szkoda ze gitara gdzies zginela. Przez to piosenka stala sie utworem AMJ.

[LWOPP]

Yeah what's with the guitar part? I was so hoping to watch how he made it sound like a clavinet in the Bowie version. Still really cool though.

[marcoferraz]

PAT FOR PRESIDENT

[777i2i]

sorry - i don't like - you cant hear pats guitar and the vocal does'nt do the song any favours

[ethalmason]

wont play??

I found "Upojenie" and it's one of my favorite all time albumns ever! - I got possibly the ONLY copy left in the world on eBay. They should re-release this albumn like they did Secret Story! If you ca
