Best Jamiroquai performance Ive seen. The musicians are on point, the clothes, Jay Kay's vocals are impeccable, & that dance he did at the break down lmao
Toby added so many layers to the early albums, the extra keyboards were totally necessary in order to be able to get all the extra layers playing at the same time back then.
I'm all for change. The evolution of music is a good thing. But! Many of us forget that Jamiroquai is not just Jay Kay...Jamiroquai was that whole band! Stuart Zender and Toby Smith were some baaaad motherf*ckers. I think it hurt Jamiroquai to not have musicians like those guys after the 90's. Today, there's no Jamiroquai...just Jay Kay. That cannot be argued.
Definitely... that good old "band" sound that can be achieved when a group of musician have a chemical connection and just jam with groove. That sound is lost for us who look for that sound... Don't take me wrong, jamiroquai is still a great "band". Miss Zender and Toby , may he rest in peace.
2024 and still funkin' ❤❤❤. Massive jamiroquai fan, been to see them 3 times, listened to loads of live versions, but this is by far the best live version they have done of ANY song
it feels find of like a blend between the demo and the release, this has the didgeridoo and the full band but it also has the synth chords from the demo and the high notes that jay kay sang at the end
Im a BLACK American, immersed in UK funk , be it NEW WAVE from the 80 's, the DURAN DURAN, Simple Minds, LEVEL 42 's ABC' s GO West, Curiosity Killed The CAT, Living in a BOX, howard jones, kajagoogoo, and so ons of the world, to this performance, the FIRST EPISODE of CONAN O BRIEN... and i became a fan INSTANTLY...the first record was a little spotty, but it showed flashes of brilliance to pique ones curiosity 4 what they could do 4 the SECOND album, and they delivered w/ " the RETURN of the SPACE COWBOY "... comparisons about THEN & NOW have been OVERKILLED....
I've been a jazz sax player for many years, and I have so much respect for this band, they have so much jazz influence in all of their music. Their music, and horn arrangements are beautiful.

@@enver3764 you nailed it. I feel kinda the same about them, but their style started to change a bit before. When You Gonna Learn/Space Cowboy and Travelling were different stuff already. When they signed with Sony, things started to change. This early Jamiroquai was incredible and one of the best bands ever created. Nonetheless, they're still good, but in a different manner.
Man. Its too Good. First verse is on point . And Mr percussion goes to town on them cowbells in the second verse. Fantastic line up. All musicians on fire. Oh. Did I have to mention Stu and Toby. And jk. Ahhh. And nick on drums.
One of the best performances of Jamiroquai, classic funk, where you see that the band is in the rhythm, a perfect music machine, absolutly sublime... please take to 1993 jajaja
Saw them at a bear festival when they where just starting out. They where brilliant!, I said there and then to my mate, there going to be huge. Theres no one like them out there. They brought back funk and jazz....just so damn cool.
I grew up listening to JK's music 24 hours a day. Thank you for bringing happiness into my life! When I was studying in London, I listened to JK's music on the underground and bus every day. and I had the same childhood memories and life as you. I pray every day that our tears will disappear completely.
Awesome! I didn't know they were on Conan O'Brien's program back in the day. I just thought they were the UK's best kept secret when the 1st album came out. Then they went worldwide with "Space Cowboy". See, Conan was cool cuz he always put on the youngest, freshest, hippest new acts on his show.
Look at that man: originality, innovation, retro-image, message, the tightest musicians, and above all fuckin groovy acid jazz. It´s all there, marrying in perfect conditions. I´m affraid there won´t be ever a band like this again. So sad it only lasted for 5 years
This takes me back. I was learning modern harmony (jazz piano) in the early 90s. Got myself into Herbie Hancock, etc. Got a Rhodes Piano and a bunch of mates who were on the same path. Had a D6 Clavinet and a Minimoog D. It was great. We didn't have any hits, but we had the funk. My mate bass player ben and I had the magic connection as well. I still love it. Shouldn't have sold my old gear though. Got a Nord now. It's lighter and less prone to breaking, but it's not so good. It was good to be alive at this time. They were a bit older and a load better. I wonder when it'll come back around.
Nos anos 90 eu levei uns três anos para saber de quem era essa música que tocava na rádio. Só quando vi na MTV fui saber que se tratava de uma banda chamada Jamiroquai, embora curtisse pra caraio essa música. Hoje acha-sr tudo numa pesquisa de alguns segundos. Outros tempos.
I posted a video response for you of the Funkanauts. By the way, I am such a Jamiroquai fan that I have bought everything I could CD and DVD wise of them since they first appeared on the scene. They are great and even with band member changes, they are fantastic.
@diisopropylamine The next album will come out soon under Universal records, and the band is preparing (according to their facebook accounts) for the new tour. So there, they didn't break up at all, it's merely the bandmembers who kept coming and going.
I think Jamiroquai is the best (and one of the only) funk bands of the past 25 years. But it all started with 70s funk and disco. Too many bands to mention, but Earth, Wind, & Fire is WAY up there. Check it out. You might wanna check out Steely Dan too (also from the 70s). Very jazzy and funky. I "discovered" them around the same time as Jamiroquai, and fell in love with both bands! You might like them.
Nicolas, you are soooo right! Actually, the original drummer (Nick Van Gelder) was the architect of the Jamiroquai sound. After he left, Toby and Stu kept the "sound" going, but once Stu left, you could hear the difference in "Dynamite." Once Toby cleared out, the "acid jazz" sound was totally gone although Nick Fyfe did what he could to keep it funky. Overall, Jay Kay had to roll with new musicians which makes it hard to believe what this group once was... "To Much Change in this case.."

How they got all those musicians on one stage was a miracle, let alone in the same band! What a sound!
The original line up was the best 1st 3 album's pure gold RIP toby Gaffney Smith great memories great musicians
And Stuart Zender on that funky bass

stuart zender is sooooo amazing . like his playing has such a presence
I peeped it. Zender had crazy swag in that performance. I was like 12 when this aired swag wasn't even a popular word this aired.
Stuart is my uncle
Ah, the original lineup - There's nothing quite like it. Happy days❤😊
Come on man, that new bassline from Zender is incredible

i love how this is jay kay's natural voice cuz most people sound just horrible live but jamirouai's recorded stuff is so true to to the actual
I think his vocals are worse on the album because of the over production. He's always spot on live.

I've been a jazz sax player for many years, and I have so much respect for this band, they have so much jazz influence in all of their music. Their music, and horn arrangements are beautiful.
This is what turned me on to Jamiroquai in '93. And it's been a love affair ever since.
Oh man, back when the mainstream audience were still willing to give interesting music a listen. Those were the days.
Zender's bassline is life!!
God, this music is the classiest funk music, I have ever heard.
Acid Jazz

Dude, Jay looks like a Toad from Super Mario with this hat!
Love the higher tempo they play live - saw them at Newcastle Riverside June 93 & was amazed how tight they were for a bunch of young guys
Best Jamiroquai of the history.
The true Jamiroquai.
I'm a Jamiroquai big fan, but there's no comparison possible between the old Jamiroquai and today's one. They're still good though...
FiasaPower yeah, that’s what drugs, alcohol and old age do to a man 😂
So fresh and funky
@@fastfaps not only to a man, but to the whole band. Jamiroquai use to be a band in every sense, from 2000's its like Jay's own proyect or kind of.
Yeah. Less funk and more jazz stuff!

He started playing bass few yrs before this. in a punk band..
he was 18 actually, hahaha totally unbelievable
Loving this alternate bass line !

Amazing band and singer.
Boy, is Stuart Zender baaaaked or what? Wearing those big ol’ sunglasses 😂

Ahh memories I use to see these lad's back in the days when they first started Man I really miss those days.
Classic vibe
The best age of the band Jamiroquai: Zender, Toby, Wallis, and the best voice of Jay Kay.
Can’t believe this song is 30 years old
The Best times ❤Toby & Master Zender

I never noticed that before, but you are right. It is there. I'm pretty sure it's just their DJ sampling throughout the song.
Why not...even almost every day....as long as there is music....😊
love this version .....so good !!! so much talent
