11/10
Bonus point awarded because the pick didn't fall off of her knee, even with the rhythmic bouncing.
Bravissima 😊
Can some popstar please hire Julia? Put her talent to good use and let her elevate every song with her magical bass lines?? Please? ❤
If Dua Lipa brought Julia on tour I’d go just to see Julia 😂
@@wsuvjosh For real, her playing is the only reason I know of Billie Eilish / Dua Lipa songs
They'll just tell her to just play root notes and keep things simpler. As nice as this is, they'll want the vocals front and center.

Well you know what happens when you are "IN" the music industry. You will get molested by the higher up Wolves in disguise. She is better off here.
I'm a simple man. I see a new video from Julia, I click like.
Me you same braincell
Same here
Yep!
100%
Haha, Julia is such a great bassist and chooses such a variety of songs, many I'd never listen to otherwise. And her bassing makes me enjoy them 9 times out of 10! Even when they are outside my normal wheelhouse
I started playing bass because of your beautiful performance. Now I’m one year and half into playing and I literally can’t stop. Thank you for introducing me to this wonderful instrument that brings me so much joy in my life.
Love the seamless alternation between plucking and picking - it truly elevates every section of the song!
You've made us all RESPECT the bass.
The way she enriches these songs and adds soul to them is beyond comparison, at least with an instrument. Usually it’s only an incredible voice that can accomplish this. If only more people actually loved music! And not just catchy beats and lyrics they like singing along to.
Definitely better with her
buttery tones🎧👩🏼🦋💕!
This Is absolutely amazing
that silence at 1:36 is absolut gold. makes it 100 times better
Then that bouncing back high in 1:42 just gorgeous.
There's a very old saying in music: sometimes the most important notes are the ones you don't play
I played that part 5 times😂
Loving how you’re getting more melodic with these covers. Shows your deep knowledge of how to work the bass - impressive as always :-)
so glad I lived long enough to enjoy the "Julia Era" on YT.
You can tell that every note has been perfectly added in the arrangement with care. Julia is both a creative and musical genius.
I’ve been playing bass for 15 years and your style and technique is perfection. Love your videos.
A standing ovation for her; she plays the bass guitar like it owes her money!
The only bass cover that make me watch until the end out of curiosity. Because her play keep getting cooler as the song goes, and there always be a nice little easter egg groove somewhere along the way
SUBLIME. Love the contrast. You played it hard and soft. You little genius.
It's incredible how well you play, it's just so smooth and groovy, every note exactly where it's supposed to be. Just an absolute pleasure to listen to.
Your ability to play bass just amazes me. I love your style.
Bass is simply the best. Your groove is sick! And those passages here (01:35) and here (02:35) are really satisfying and the 02:44 fill is amazing. Thanks for this.
Nailed it. That 02.44 run is so clean. Gorgeous
I just love how you listen to every part of the arrangement and production and figure out how to work little snippets of all of them into your parts. Brilliant work!
Her cover and the way she plucked that bass takes me to another world of music 🎶
Love the pick playing on the short scale. I hope you publish on your community page your gig schedule so fans can see you play live.
Just like that. Auto-like mode.
how beautiful, never thought this song could be any better than it already was. you added groove and nostalgia so perfectly
Upload from Julia, another smooth cover and the first time I’ve seen her use a pick. Beautifully done!!
I love how you play the silences in this one - and every note you do play is gorgeous!
Even the “simpler” one’s groove. Glad you’re still at it.
your instrumentation is so cool. i love how you start with the vocal melody, swap to the harmony, and then follow the hi hat. your creativity is so inspiring
Brilliantly soulful playing. I love the dynamics and groove. Well done Julia, again :)
HOW DO YOU DO IT EVERY TIME im constantly in awe. another banger from royalty herself
The bass lines Julia create make me like and wanna play this kind of modern music.
I never really heard Billie Eilish - I mean, probably some music on short videos and etc, but I'm truly amazed with this and it's a sign I'm gonna be obsessed with this artist for couple weeks
Did NOT realize I needed this combination, now I'm realizing so many songs on this record would sound great with your interpretation!
Hearing this, (quality but subtle instrumentation over simpler pop songs) finally made it click in my head exactly why I fell in love with with foreign pop music in the early 2000's, and why older stuff like City Pop is a big part of my current favorites.
ok that definitely hit me off guard. damn this is some sick playing + sick bassline + immersion. so this is what peak human performance and flow means
i love the matching blue hoodie to match the album theme, and the bassline is super duper groovy!
love all your videos, they genuinely make my day and i have them on loop
“Laaaast Christmas, I gave you my heart but the very next day, you gave it away”
Lmao
😂
Exactly!! the song kind off similar with last Christmas when I played it over and over 😅 but I love it 😊
@@MrBento12345 leona lewis bleeding love melody, last xmas chords and the english proverb "Birds of a feather flock together" make up this song. its good cos its 3 other well known things
Hahaha 😂
Any new one video from Julia is....pleasure guaranteed.
Congrats Julia for your wonderful playing skills.
It’s a joy to witness your joy when you play bass.
you're literally my inspo for picking up a bass, thank you everyday for shredding this instrument !
So many different techniques, played so perfectly, in such an amazing groove... You're one of my examples of how I'd love to play one day...
She is a real genius.I can listen to her all day.❤
Genius is an understatement! ❤❤😊
oooh this is my favorite song from the album! so glad you chose to play this one!
once in a while i find a gem that is on constant loop; this is amazing !!
Julia, your version is the only version of this song I listen to. It is too depressing but your bass line gives it life...
first time I listen to a Billie Eilish song actually. well Julia can make me appreciate any artist...
Talented bass player. you are Julia. No alluring looks to the camera...just amazing bass interpretation. Easy to see how you feel it.
you never fail to amaze me❤ was literally listening to this song when your notification came up! didn’t think i could like the song more but u proved me wrong! so talented:)
Julia has this unique ability to make me way into songs that I would otherwise not be into at all because she makes them so damn groovy. Keep slaying Julia, you're amazing!
I was not expecting this bass to sing. Thank you, you've made my night. Amazing.
So much the yes, I just love your playing style. As I've said before, you're such a pleasure to watch and listen to, stellar playing as always, so clean. Every note you play hits so perfectly, thank you for sharing 🤘🏻❤
I love it when someone's personality shines when they play. ❤ well done, Julia
The tingling sensation is killing me! So effing good Julia!
More than an amazing bass player, a great musician… thanks for emotion you give us Julia… and never stop playing !
I've been watching this every day for a month now.
One of the few channels worthy of a "like" before even viewing the content.
I've been following covers by many unknown and amateur musicians for many years, but I've never seen anyone play the bass the way you play, an incredibly competent method, rhythmic riffs, I've rarely seen such perfection, a new way of playing the double bass. Excited congratulations, directly from Brazil...👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Sooo good!!! Love it! 🙌👏
This song been on repeat, and was def not a song I thought Julia would cover, but damn am I glad she did. Keep it up!!🫶🏼
Some feelings just can't be expressed with words and this is exactly where the BASS kicks in.
Thank you for sharing your gift with us and thank you for the inspiration. You are a big reason why I finally picked up the bass.
No over the top makeup, no dress-up just Bass!
Love it!👏👏
That was beautiful!! LOVE the way you used finger style and picking! Absolute 100% Groove!!!
My favourite bass shredder and forbidden technique. Sweet!
Everytime I pick up my bass i'm like "i'm a pretty good player !" then i watch Julia play and i'm like "ok no, that's a GOOD bass player. Miles ahead of me." But i love it ! :)
The feel is top tier 🔥
Wow! Great playing! Great groove and basslines. Love the tone you get with the pick! 🎉
Excellent Playing
Julia has that rare virtuoso quality and can still let the song breathe. Love this one!
Am I the only one mesmerized by Julia’s ever changing facial expressions that are in sync with each section of the song??
My favorite bassist did it again! I love you!
FINALLYYYY AAAHHHHHH once julia covers a song, you know it's gameover for the original bass track
So dang melodic! Almost every song is better with a Julia bass line.
I am so used to seeing (hearing!) you play super tight and beautifully thought-out bass lines, but that sort of numbs the receptors… you are adding layers of ideas and skills, getting better all the time, so amazing! A real pleasure to listen to, and great mix of techniques, all in the service of upgrading this song!
I’m obsessed with this song and now Julia makes a cover, so blessed ❤
Always. So. Good. Thank you SO MUCH for sharing, as always. This will be another that gets multiple viewings, so many nice touches.
Wow! So smooth and melodic. Very impressive playing!
i love how bass covers and covers in general make me experience songs like for the first time it's so amazing
Another amazing performance and bass arrangement Julia. You are great!!! Thank you for sharing your talent and beauty!
This was an absolute joy to listen to....well done Julia! Your playing enhanced the song tremendously for me!
Me smiling peacefully everytime I see Julia's notification bell and enjoying her new video! What a nice day!
This may be the best thing I have ever seen.
This song is so fun to play. Great job!
The way you manage to stay true to the original tune's spirit while elevating it through your bass lines never ceases to amaze me 💗, thank you so much for sharing your love for music and all your amazing work!
For some reason the more prominent bass made me realise this sounds like that song from the Hercules soundtrack. Lovely.
After a very tough day, I watched this video and the sound of you playing this just made me feel so much better and I felt like crying from happiness. Thank you so much Julia
The soft section at 2:05 was masterful. Inside a truly wonderful and well matched line to Billie's melodic singing.
I had tears.
I'm blown away, that was amazing.
What a magical tone. Simply amazing.
She plays this with so much feel deep feeling.she cleary loves this song and it shows.
Only Julia can get me to listen to a Billie Eilish song.
hopefully this gets you to listen to more of her music because she is a very talented artist :)
i love how Julia appreciate every single chord she's the best..i can't live without her bass covers anymore...all the love from brazil
I have never heard that song before, but I am going to now! Loving the bass! Absolutely beautiful you let the music move threw you! Love it adding to favourites :)
Julia😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️ I'm so happy you covered a song from this record. It's a beautiful album and you simply make things better. Can't wait to get home and listen to this over and over and over!!
Thank you❤ im so happy rn!!!
As a singer of many years who’ve played with many great bass players I love this song and that’s a lovely feel and sounds great 😊
I think I just found my new favorite UA-cam channel, thank you Julia!
You always make the most amazing bass lines. Shout out from the Philippines.
A true musician.
You can do so much more but instead you always make choices that fit the best.
Just wow! Love this! Great track but that bass line is outstanding! Truly awesome skills. Well done.
So heartwarming . This song sounds so much better with your bass play❤🤍
it's the first time i see a video of you and OH MY GOD, the best bass i've ever heard in my life! greetings from argentina❤
