These are not simply musicians..... these are artists. What throws some off is that they are happy. When some people see "happy" they assume someone lacks depth. These artists somehow have overcome and escaped the miseries of the world of today. And? That is what a GOOD entertainer must do to truly entertain. Their audience gets its money's worth.
I just want to say...This is fantastic... Great band, lovely people...Grazia is amazing lovely to see Chester Whitmore too!! Top Notch...it's a 10 from me!
Brilliant as always! The blistering good Jive Aces wonderful performance back in January in Norwich! Can't wait until Cheltenham Uke Fest of GB to see them again!
The Jive Aces' videos are the best. They actually tell a story instead of those music videos that are nothing than annoying flashing images. Well done, guys!
Though my heart is breaking over a family issue with my daughter, I am learning to smile thanks to Charlie Chaplin and the off-the-charts The Jive Aces. Thank you. Iris of Manassas, VA.
We have three shows in your area this week Brian and Red Hawk! March 24th in Williamsburg, March 26th in Glen Allen and March 27th at Gottaswing at the Spanish Ballroom in Glen Echo park, MD (near DC). Details and tickets from www.jiveaces.com/tour
One of my favorite songs...proving that if you just Smile your circumstances can change, and we have the power within us through Christ to help others turn their day around if we are aware of them.
Absolutely! But, I'm a little slow. I routinely hit "like" and forward videos to friends but hadn't scrolled down to see the comments section (I told you I was slow). Some take medications when they feel low. I take the Jive Aces.
That put a smile on my dial 🥰 My late father talked about his good intent to teach me to Jive unfortunately that never transpired Although he gave the appreciation of the Big Band music and sang to me and took to me to Live shows and films related to that fabulous era reminnense and miss him dearly Thanks for the aGolden Oldies 🎼🎹💓
Brilliant💡, so True! My fiancee is still half way through the ofciale proposal for marine, since recently had pop up the question over the phone but on the return of his UN job, itself be officially done with the 💍! Funny thing is that it's exactly what you have filmed?!😊 Ha, ha!
Been looking forward to seeing this since being filmed a year ago here in LA! Nice arrangement of one of my most favorite classic songs SMILE! I recommend Sharing this where ever you can! As for me, I do my Endless Banana trick every where I go which is guaranteed to make young and old smile!
Thank you for posting!! You guys gave this song a new dimension....its sad if you play it slow....makes sense when played fast!! Just the buzz I needed!!
dicika53 so very true. Wonderful comment. Iris and Brian Cooper who celebrated 50 years of marriage on June 27, 2021, with my Prince Charming Brian from Sunny Spokane, WA.
Love the JIVE ACES music AND the video . Sweet-spirited and GIVES ME MORE HOPE FOR A BETTER BATCH OF TOMORROWS.... as well as peaceful co-existence between peoples of this old world. No rhyme or reason to any fussing and fighting and me? I want to SMILE MORE and share a SMILE with those who look like they need it most.

You are so fantastic! Everytime I hear you it makes me happy. Missed your concert in London last January, but I will walk kilometers to see you whenever it's possible. Bravo!
Our Dad always had a smile, sadly he has shuffled off on the next journey. Whenever I see someone smile, I always wonder if it was a smile he had started. A smile lasts forever. :-)
Once again you've excelled yourselves! Grazia as Charlie Chaplin? I didn't spot that until I read the credits and I really thought you'd enlisted the real Steve Martin until I found it was look-alike Jim Meskimen. Well done Aces.
I am a subscriber and must now purchase some of your MP3s. By the way, I am of the opinion that music historian and former theatre critic Mark Steyn would benefit greatly by having you guys and gals do one of his "Song of the Week" shows. I hope you can arrange a get-together with Mark for whom I have great respect!
Go to his website, Mark Steyn . com. Also, on You Tube just punch up his name. Mark does lots of political commentary here in the states but started life out as primarily a London theatre critic and over all show biz historian, his first love. One of his most widely acclaimed show biz books is "Mark Steyn's American Songbook in which he speaks about many show big wigs like Dorothy Fields, Jule Styne, Cole Porter, Sammy Cahn, Sinatra, Artie Shaw, etc. Multi-time New York Times best selling author as well. Check him out on You Tube - Song of the Week to get a feel for the guy. You guys might have many common interests and would be a terrifically great fit if you met. My opinion!
I think my favorite video is still "Bring Me Sunshine"...but I REALLY enjoyed your take on "Smile". I've talked about the "Bring Me Sunshine" video on the Recovery 101 Radio Show as the perfect get out of the dumps entertainment...I'm going to mention this version of "Smile" as well. Cheers! LOVE you guys!
Oh my for this is over-the-charts fantastic. Jive Aces you are so talented. Any chance of your coming to the D.C. area. Iris M. Rosenberg-Cooper of Manassas, VA.
Oh, my gosh thanks for letting me know. I will be there. We have a groovy diner out here so maybe we can all go. LOL!! I am so excited. Iris of Manassas, VA.
ya know, ya know, Jive Aces and Tuba Skinny should do it together best part was the ending..sounds like At the Hop this band rocks, there isn't another one like them and they wail too
what I like about your band is it plays lots of happy tunes that lifts you up a bit like cold play I don't think lol I play sax in a swing band myself and try to play some of your stuff sorry

Thank you for this in depth compliment Genez!
I just love all the Jive Aces's videos.

Exactly!
I've never seen one of your videos that I didn't like. Pure quality. Pure sunshine. This one special.
... ah, I see you are aware of the other videos!
Absolutely! But, I'm a little slow. I routinely hit "like" and forward videos to friends but hadn't scrolled down to see the comments section (I told you I was slow). Some take medications when they feel low. I take the Jive Aces.
Awesome video. Made me smile a lot. Great job Jim Meskimen!
Today I saw the whole video for the first time. It's a wonderful video with great music. Trank You🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
Thank you very much!
That put a smile on my dial 🥰 My late father talked about his good intent to teach me to Jive unfortunately that never transpired Although he gave the appreciation of the Big Band music and sang to me and took to me to Live shows and films related to that fabulous era reminnense and miss him dearly Thanks for the aGolden Oldies 🎼🎹💓
Brilliant💡, so True!
My fiancee is still half way through the ofciale proposal for marine, since recently had pop up the question over the phone but on the return of his UN job, itself be officially done with the 💍!
Funny thing is that it's exactly what you have filmed?!😊
Ha, ha!
Its no coincidence that Charlie CHAPLIN features in this. He of course wrote the song !
Correct! Please also subscribe, it help us make more videos!
Chaplin wrote the music for Violin. The lyrics were written later by another song writer.
