If this were a Broadway musical, this number would have been the GRAND Finale...the "showstopper". THIS is how you get a 15-minute standing ovation. Bravo!!! (I'm still waiting for that Las Vegas tour stop...pleeeeeeease 😄)
Holy moly! A class in breathwork and supporting the voice. On the tv singing competitions, too many singers are cheered for shouting their way through. They should watch this! And learn.
i have full body chills so bad I had to go put a sweatshirt on and sit in silence for 5 minutes after watching to process what just haPPENED TO MY SOUL
Wonderful rendition. I really liked the bass line. The vocalist knocked it out of the park, her voice is gold. The accompaniment of background singers and musicians was perfect.👍👍🇨🇦
Gotta say, you've come a long way from recording videos in the corner of an apartment with complaining neighbors. I loved those beginning videos with Robyn, Puddles, Haley and Miche Braden. The quality of music was as good then as it is now, despite the budget deficit back then. I'm happy everyone associated with this channel is having such success. I hope to be commenting on new content here 10 years from now. Cheers!
I never cease to be amazed at the talent in this group. Everyone needs to be there to make it a success. I love there serious songs and the songs presented with comedy (will never forget the fire in the brass!)
It's definitely LOVE!!! I love everything about this! What is fascinating is that having seen Effie singing I know that she is even better live ... and I don't know how that's even possible!!!!
I’ve been a fan of the Postmodern Jukebox stuff for years now. Every now and again they release a phenomenal rework of a song from a later era, this is one. This newest cover has instantly become one of my favourites from them!! 🧡 This spin on the Roxette classic is GENIUS. 👏🔥
That key change: amazing! That voice: amazing! The vocals in general: amazing! That band: amazing! The arrangement: amazing! The moment this will be on your next karaoke album: amazing!
Wonderful! I love hearing someone who can really belt out a song, sounding like they're putting their whole heart and soul into it. This is a perfect example of that!
The presence of the vocalist blew me away. Just stunning. What a beautiful, enchanting person with the voice of an angel (and the technique of a superstar) 😍❤️
I was just falling asleep and this started playing on my iPad out of the blue. My eyes actually flew open and I’m like “wait…what?” Absolutely exquisite ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Effie you are the best! Saw you first time ever in Fort Collins last year and been to 2 PMJ concerts since but no EFFIE! Glad to see you on official PMJ!
Боже, у меня мурашки от такого великолепного исполнения моей любимой песни! Браво, Эффи! ❤👍🔥 Тембр голоса этой певицы и стилистика исполнения окунули меня в мое детство
Ms. Effie, you can turn any song into operatic material and you sing with zero effort. I almost forgot what song you were singing until I re-read the title. So artfully rendered as only you can do. I’m quite surprised that PMJ isn’t seen more because your style demands attention and you definitely deserve every accolade.
Oh wow. Not only does she have a VOICE, she has that extremely specific technique. She sounds so contemporary to Eydie Gormé and Dorris Day. Love her! 🥰
Can't wait for videos of her live performances for this song. Even though her recorded versions are outstanding, her live versions are somehow even more mind blowing. ❤
Oh Bab, your voice and the way of dining is so beautiful and heart-fetching. What a fascinating wave of releasing the song witch is making me cry. Oh, you the singer of the singers……..
Grew up on Roxette thanks to my mom's spectacular playlist of classics, and this cover is the ONLY cover I like as much as the original! Thank you for always giving us quality 💃🏻✨
Let us know the exact timestamp where Effie's voice first gave you chills ⬇
@@postmodernjukebox does around 8pm on March 30, 2022 at a PMJ show at Atlanta Symphony Hall count?
0:14
3:33 and not just chills but tears too!
1:22 for this performance.
02:59
Incredible, just incredible. This woman is amazing, what a voice and the choir supports her perfectly.
The performance is great, but the back up singers were unnecessary.
As a Roxette fan, gosh, I am moved to tears. Thank you.
❤️
One of my favourite songs from the late 80's. R.I.P. Marie Fredriksson
Awww! I didn't know she had passed away. RIP, what a great singer & band.
@@tonystamford Nooo… She’s gone?! We lost a true talent!
@@melissabrenton4419 Brain tumour for 17 years. Died in 2019.
Yes. They were great ❤
wow damn i didn't know she already passed. rip ❤
As a swede who grew up with Roxette’s music you guys really did this song justice. And the singer really took this song to new heights, loved it.
Singers like this, should be much more famous!
That's what I can't comprehend. How they're usually not.
“Famous” is not a metric of quality. But FWIW, she was on American Idol.

She was on American Idol. But this rendition is bombastic and over-the-top. No dynamics. A little much for my taste.
Beautiful voice!
This lady live in Finland... what a powerful voice. Fantastic! Cant get enough, this Roxette version is jaw dropping.
i have full body chills so bad I had to go put a sweatshirt on and sit in silence for 5 minutes after watching to process what just haPPENED TO MY SOUL
amen
Your diet is just horrible
Her version of Chandelier will make you a fan forever. Saw it live. Diva delivers!
Best one to date
WOW! The vocalist belted the HELL out of that one! 🤯👏
Check out her rendition of Hallelujah and also I was made for loving you. Chills literal chills.
Her control is wildly impressive
So did Marie.
@@rpc717 Impressive power from this version but none of the emotion of the original.
She had to be stronger than the sheer amount of instrumentation in this one and honestly? she did it lol
wow, amazing version! Congratulations! ✨️🫶🏻🎉
Wonderful rendition. I really liked the bass line. The vocalist knocked it out of the park, her voice is gold. The accompaniment of background singers and musicians was perfect.👍👍🇨🇦
Goosebumps oh wow what a voice
Yeah, Efffffiiiieeeee!!!!! This vocal must be loved!
Ok, I think I've found yet another absolutely PERFECT recording. Seriously, that was beyond beautiful, all of it!

I'm not a big music fan in general, but these guys give me goosebumps more often than not.
WoW!!! You earned my subscription! That was amazing!
After the key change. Shivers up my backbone. Definitely a present. Thanks Scott.
Wowwwww ❤❤❤❤
This is one of the best voices I heard so far. Wow... A voice from days of old.
Это очень красиво❤❤❤
My god, Effie is incredible! This is such a great version, too. Wow!
Great 60s twist
Simplesmente perfeita!
It's definitely LOVE!!! I love everything about this! What is fascinating is that having seen Effie singing I know that she is even better live ... and I don't know how that's even possible!!!!
Okay that saxophonist was very funny! I loved him!
That's Absolutely, AWESOMENESS!!! The Vocals are on another level, but the backup chair is the cherry ontop, this week 🥺👏🏽👏🏽🍒
What... A... Voice!!
Her VOICE!! Omg literal chills and a smile of disbelief during the entire cover holy crap-
Good lord - She is fantastic
Effie's vocal is amazing!
AMAZING
Wow! Effie is a Goddess! Spectacular performance and arrangement! ❤❤
Such a sensual vocalist! Wow! 😍

I think you mean from an “earlier” era?
@@calisongbird The genre comes before the Roxette song, the song is from a later era.
That key change: amazing! That voice: amazing! The vocals in general: amazing! That band: amazing! The arrangement: amazing!
The moment this will be on your next karaoke album: amazing!
Requests: We Built This City and Everybody Wants to Rule the World! PLEASE?
I'd like to hear Evberybody Wants To Rule The World in the same way you did Mr. Blue Sky.
❤
I would like to see Everybody Wants to Rule the World too!
LOOOOOOOOVE THIS!!! She's incredible. What a sound. The tone, the cry. Oh, my soul.
This is gold!!!! Strings, choir and Effie what a brilliant performance!!!
Belle interprétation ❤
Absolutely astounding! Effie is phenomenal!!!!!!
I love all of her singing... just WOW!
Wonderful! I love hearing someone who can really belt out a song, sounding like they're putting their whole heart and soul into it. This is a perfect example of that!
Dynamics has a place too though. She’s an excellent singer, but this rendition is relentless and over-the-top.
Saw the tour last year when she was doing Cohen's "Hallelujah" and it was unbelievable. The power in her voice is stunning.
Think this is the first time I've heard this singer - and my god, what a voice!🥰
She brought actual tears to my eyes. Amazing.
She's outstanding live....Blew me away when I saw her, best voice I've ever heard live and I've heard a few!!
The presence of the vocalist blew me away. Just stunning. What a beautiful, enchanting person with the voice of an angel (and the technique of a superstar) 😍❤️
Wow. The pipes on that woman. Just when I thought she was peaking, she had another gear
What a stunning voice! ♥
It's the awesome arrangement that makes this extraordinary
Beautiful simply beautiful
Her voice always brings tears to my eyes - pure perfection♥️
Голос обыкновенной домашней самодеятельности,а песня,музыка,слова!!!!!🎉
Wow! Effie is slaying this song! And what an amazing arrangement!
Pure perfection, such a tribute to Marie!❤😢
I was just falling asleep and this started playing on my iPad out of the blue. My eyes actually flew open and I’m like “wait…what?” Absolutely exquisite ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love when people can give a new live to songs
❤ This song is timeless no matter what decade it is played in. Retro greetings from coastal Mississippi 👋
Effie totally should have won that show!!!! The voice I think it was. . . She was and IS absolutely AMAZING!!!!!!!
It was American Idol.
Been listening to this on repeat 😊
Effie knocking it out of the park as usual. So great to have seen her on the PMJ tour thus year.
My 11 year old son and I got chills. Love this.
Effie you are the best! Saw you first time ever in Fort Collins last year and been to 2 PMJ concerts since but no EFFIE! Glad to see you on official PMJ!
Beautiful work by the soloist, musicians, and of course backing singers.
3:02 Effie's voice pierced my heart like a gazillion Cupid's arrows!
Боже, у меня мурашки от такого великолепного исполнения моей любимой песни! Браво, Эффи! ❤👍🔥
Тембр голоса этой певицы и стилистика исполнения окунули меня в мое детство
Шедевр из шедевра! Великолепный голос! Браво Эффи! 👏 Она для меня - открытие!
What a fantastic performance! They transformed the song to their own. Simply excellent! I ❤ it! 😊
Not many should even attempt covering this, but I’m glad they did. Beautiful

Phew! The arrangement is killer!
Love it 🌹❤
This is the bees daggone knees, I tell ya. What can Effie NOT do?!? So dreamy, so swoony.🫠💖✨
Beautiful voice. Loved this song from the Pretty Woman soundtrack!
Incredible performance! ❤ I am so grateful to hear it for free and the video makes it complete. Thank you!
DAMN! I felt that! you are all amazing!
Oh wow. Not only does she have a VOICE, she has that extremely specific technique. She sounds so contemporary to Eydie Gormé and Dorris Day. Love her! 🥰
Wow👏👏👏
This made me smile and cry at the same time... beautiful
i got goosebumps, amazingg!!!!
Dayum! she's got a POWERFUL voice!
oh waoooo!! amazing!! Good job!
This is instantly among my favourite PMJ covers!
More like this please!
Just mesmerizing 🥹
Can't wait for videos of her live performances for this song. Even though her recorded versions are outstanding, her live versions are somehow even more mind blowing. ❤
GOOSEBUMPS!!!!!
Ooh, Effie's vocals were perfection! I loved the take on the song. Well played to all involved 👏!
Oh Bab, your voice and the way of dining is so beautiful and heart-fetching. What a fascinating wave of releasing the song witch is making me cry. Oh, you the singer of the singers……..
Always a treat to given the opportunity to hear Effie use her amazing talent.

So happy you loved it as much as we loved making it!
This has to be one of the top PMJ performances yet.
Ikr. I can't wait to come back in a week and see that this has 3 million views.
So much power on the voice
I love the vintage tv visuals that faded in and out.
WOW Perfect Voices 🤩
Big, big BIG yaaaaaaaaasssss from me! This is an amazing production and comfortably in my top 5 fave PMJ productions now!
Freaking heck! I figured I would like this, but I wasn’t prepared to absolutely love it! Bravo! Everyone gave their A+++ game!!!
