This is 🔥 Jo! Great vibes.

I love the subtle organ, the great vocals (especially digging these backup vocals), and the laid back sorta bossa nova drum that plays throughout the verse. Plus, I dig how they change to a more 60's feel during the pre-chorus/chorus with a straighter, tambourine-laced beat, plus a whole soup of different sonic textures. It's dang good stuff.

Also, Morcheeba is perhaps one of my favorite band names ever lol.

So, this isn't exactly the same, but my band has been playing "Back to Black" by Amy Winehouse a lot recently and I'm thinking you might dig this tune if you're not already a fan. If you are already hip to Amy Winehouse, then here she is again.

Woah, cool! Band. I love it! I sing, spastically, but pretty much all day every day. My one buddy wanted to make a band, but we never got to it. I think it'd be fun, but never got to that point. I think in general though, that folks with bands are pretty nifty-spiffy cool!

My old buddy (lost to the sands of time but still in my heart - different buddy just both back home) loved Amy Winehouse. He gave me a bunch of songs, but none of them stuck to me like this one. I thought it was spiffy but I haven't thought of her in a hundred years so it's good to get a listen.

Also speaking of bossa-nova-y jams:

Given by the same guy =)

p.s. - there is a trip-hop version:

p.p.s. Danke =)~
