Bloody Well Right I want more Supertramp! Vocal ANALYSIS of Rick Davies lead vocals!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 сер 2024
- It's no secret that I love Supertramp after hearing them for the first time last year. And Roger Hodgson on lead vocals has been mesmerizing - I still think back to "The Logical Song" and am entranced at how pertinent and poignant that song is still today. But I've never heard Rick Davies on leads. That changes today with "Bloody Well Right" live in Paris, 1979!
Join professional opera singer Elizabeth Zharoff, as she listens to Supertramp performing "Bloody Well Right" for the first time.

Performed by Supertramp - Words and Music by Rick Davies, Roger Hodgson
Performance is from 1979 at the Pavillon de Paris

The whole "Crime of the Century" album is fantastic. Every song is just amazing and they're all related. Not only is every song great, it's also beautifully arranged and the production is top-notch.
Also, you can't go wrong with Supertramp. Bloody brilliant band.
Bloody Well right said!
I still have the album Im 66
One of my first albums
@@jamesreding6336 I also have the original vinyl and went to see them when they were touring Crime of The Century in the early 70s
Quite Right!
The Wurlitzer electric piano is a signature part of Supertramp's sound.
My go to electric piano sound when writing, especially with a little grit. I love the Rhodes sound too but I always want to go mellow. If I only I had room for the real thing and a Fender Twin!
It allows for such a playful style of playing. It simply sounds joyful and playful.
A200
That bark! You don't often get that with a Fender Rhodes or a Hohner Clavinet. Yes, the Wurli is very distinctive, yes, that snapping bark when you jump on the keys!
Rick and Roger are very much the ying and yang of the band. Roger’s songs are more philosophical while Rick’s songs are more cynical. They are different people with different viewpoints about life and love, but it’s the combination of both their strengths and abilities that make Supertramp what it is.
Well said - Completely agree
I'm pretty sure Elizabeth has reached the point where she now knows that Supertramp is the legendary group they are made out to be.
Supertramp are one of the most underrated bands of all time. They are amazing.
I totally agree. It’s the crime of the century! 😊
You're only saying that because it's 2024. That certainly wasn't the case in 1979. ;-)
They have never been underrated!!!
I've often said that Supertramp is every Dad's second favourite band
@@BlackGuardXIII 😅
The Wurlitzer electronic piano is an electric piano manufactured and marketed by Wurlitzer from 1954 to 1983. Sound is generated by striking a metal reed with a hammer, which induces an electric current in a pickup. It is conceptually similar to the Rhodes piano, though the sound is different.
Really, at the time, a question of choosing the instrument for its sound, as polyphonic synthesizers didn’t yet exist (aside from string machines).
What you said better than I could. ❤
@@paulgillespie542 thanks Paul but I pasted it from Wikipedia because I know that sound because my piano player used one in the seventies. It’s a beautiful unforgettable tone.
Goodbye Stranger is awesome.
Yes she NEEDS to do this one.
I was in a 70s prog tribute for a bit and the few shows we closed with Goodbye Stranger are some of my favorite performance moments. Such a great song.
School ain't bad either
@thecharismaticvoice you'd love this one (Goodbye Stranger). Rick sings the chorus in a great falsetto.
Absolutely, I was thinking the same thing. Vocally brilliant. I hope to see her do an analysis of Goodbye Stranger, and also Give a Little Bit, just as a feel good fun song.
You don't see many bands doing cover versions of Supertramp songs.
That says it all for me...............and I'm bloody well right about it! ;)
Sounds Logical to me
"Give A Little Bit" has been widely covered.
I've been a huge Supertramp fan for decades, I always toss in a few covers when my band plays. Usually This one (Bloody Well Right) and School. We have 2 keyboard players which makes it logically feasible 😉 My favorite to play as a keyboard player is absolutely "Ain't Nobody But Me"
You got a bloody right to say…
@@TheFixsInn You have a Band I would like to see!
Elizabeth, Rick's most famous Supertramp hit is 'Goodbye Stranger.' He sings a nice falsetto on the chorus, you'd like it. But it's best on the album recording.
Roger has always said it stemmed from Rick trying to "take him off" so to speak, and Roger felt it was so cool he asked Rick to keep it.
Elizabeth you sould hear " Fools Overture" from Supertramp.........it's a mastrpiece !! Greetings from Montréal.
Agreed!
Agreed 😊
Oui😊
Absolutely
Great song! But you can justifiably say you should hear virtually any Super Tramp song and it's a masterpiece!
Yes, the original album version had that opening. I recommend you listen to it and compare.
What an amazing talent! All of them!
Mr Davies is 79 years of age.. and apparently still playing music after a serious health scare a few years ago.
Growing up listening to these guys was great! I just loved how boppy they were!
You are right that the original recording has that opening, but it's shorter and also the ending is extended on this recording.
One of my favorite songs isn't even on the radar for most people when they think of SuperTramp. "Oh Darling " when I first heard it sent a chill down my back and a smile on my face. Definatly one of their best songs.
Yup. The closing cut on side one of Breakfast In America (at least on the cassette version I got back in '79).
@@rudolphpyatt4833 And on the vinyl LP as well. I love this song, although that's me for most of Supertramp's work.
There's so much to love in that song. Rick and Roger both singing falsettos (I think). The way the drums don't come in until after the piano intro, and again how they're held back in the bars before the bridge. The harmonies in the verses. So much to love!
With the muffled horn..👍
One of the reasons I love watching your videos is you're such a happy person. It gives off great vibes.
I've been listening to Super Tramp since "Crime of the Century" came out. Bloody Well Right, School, Dreamer...OMG, one of my Fav bands for sure. Never heard them live, their studio work is magnificent. Live is different but so good!
Ditto never heard the live version and love it for its difference.
Rick Davies was originally a drummer. Love the way you emphasize the rhythm aspect of his singing.
Supertramp are in my list of top 5 favorite bands. ❤
Crime of the Century is in my top 5 Albums of all time.
I Seen them in concert in 1979 in Seattle with Ann Wilson and Nancy Wilson sang with them for one song with top hats 🎩 on
Sounds like a great show, nice!
@@CaptainTedStryker it was
How Freaking Awesome that must have been!
@kevinmichael9482 Yes it was
Fool's Overture absolutely HAS to be next. Particular the version Roger did with a full symphony orchestra, the way he composed it to be. Genuinely brilliant composition.
"From Now On" and "Downsteam" are great Rick Davies tracks and "Even in the Quietest Moments" is another Roger track that is great.
Even in The quietest Moments gives me goosebumps every time. It's such a brilliant execution of vocals and emotion.
I loved watching Elizabeth's face while her eyes were closed and yet she mimicked the facial expressions of Davies as he's playing.
Hide in Your Shell. Asylum. Crime of The Century. School. All from this most underrated live album.
Hide in your shell is my favorite ST song
Rick was always my fav in this band ! Adore his voice
Love the jazzy feel of the intro and the headbanger it resolves into. "It's Raining Again" is another great one from Supertramp, Elizabeth.
Love this, Crime of the Century in my mind is honestly one of the greatest albums of all time
Hard to argue. Along with what, though? Joni Mitchell's "Blue", definitely. John Martyn's "Solid Air", quite likely. But what about Barclay James Harvest's "Early Morning Onwards" or the Strawbs' "From the Wichwood"...
Supertramp were good live but their studio recordings were really phenomenal. If you get a chance you should check those out too.
Yeah I'm a little sad she mostly reacts to live versions, the studio version is better in a lot of cases, Supertramp included. Stairway to heaven is another example, like 95% of all reactors choose the live version, although the studio version is WAY better.
@@_Shadoh_it’s unfortunate that they want the visuals to go with the song in these reactions as personally I really don’t like live versions of songs 99% of the time, there’s a reason why they choose to release the particular studio version they did as they made the best version they could at the time and it was good enough to set in stone as it were, with live versions they change stuff quite often and unsurprisingly you can’t expect them to do it to the same quality either.
I agree with all of you, but since she is a vocal based channel, it makes since she does the live version, so she can get their natural voice on its own . But I do wish she would do the studio version first.
A nice way of saying that this performance doesn't even come close to the perfection of the album track.
Yeah honestly despite her raving about how great it is, this performance has some flaws and isn't even close to the quality of the album track.
"Write your problems down in detail, take em' to a higher place" One of my favorite rock vocals of all all time!
Back to supertramp! They have so many good songs, i dont know which ones to advise to do first… i am just gonna enjoy whichever ones you choose to look at
This was one of my dad’s favourite songs. I haven’t been able to listen to it for a couple years now. But when Elizabeth drops a new video, you watch it! It was wonderful to see you enjoy this incredible piece of music. ❤
Now we’re getting somewhere , this is the Supertramp we were all excited about in 1975 ,76 , and 2 years later it was clarinet solos , but that summer, bloody well right was captivating
You can get a indication Supertramp is a British band, I'm pretty sure I'm Bloody Well Right "
Aussies say that too..... but yep they're quite quintessentially British methinks.
They’re a very British band.
Another stellar Rick vocal is Rudy
Yes, I really hope she does that one. And Asylum, and Goodbye Stranger.
My Father has been dead a while, but we still have his piano....he was of the generation of people in England who had a piano in their house, like we have computers....my Father could play anything you want, because it was how he grew up in his family....so if I hummed a tune to him, he would sit at the piano and play it with one hand and say "is this what you mean?"
One of my favorite piano intros of all time..
You're really missing out by not hearing their studio recordings. They are amazing.
"From Now On" is my favourite Supertramp vocal
"Old Brown Shoes" is a fantastic showcase for Rick's singing. And songwriting for that matter!
Supertramp is one of my all time favorite 1970s bands with the all the jazz influences in their music.
Seeing the title and song immediately made my mind play this song at volume loud in my head. I wonder how long this will play for. This is an ear wurm easily stuck on repeat.
Same. I don't know most of the lyrics, but the "Bloody Well Right" on repeat in my head
The chorus immediately started looping in my head.
Entire Crime of the Century from start to finish is amazing.
My favorite of their recordings. Much of what came later seems lightweight (YMMV).
Supertramp is a top five all time band. Period.
They are awesome, but I probably couldn’t put them in a top 5 unless I grouped different styles like Hard Rock, blues, jazzy blues, progressive, etc, they would definitely be in a top 5 for me. About 25 years ago they came to Tulsa, OK and for some reason not very many people showed up (maybe 5-6,000 but holds about 15k for concerts) and everyone was so disappointed, but they played as if the place was packed?
Agreed 😊
@@lantose Totally understand your point. Im a 49 yo former guitar teacher and always musician of course but from my Youth (9/10 yo) listening to "music" ( Peter Gabriel, genesis, Phil Collins, Aerosmith, ZAPPA with Bozzio and VAI, Classical, Alan parson s Project, And so many, at the age of 9/10 and more) and it really impacted me. Globally. And if i pointed the Top 5 for Supertramp is because, the song "Crime of the century" ( the song, not the whole album) literally made me collapse as a kid ultra sensitive to music also i m born not understanding english langage. But the whole piece literally hit my soul. Also School, piano solo, and logical son that made me sort of anxiousness as a young kid but can't help playing it( as "one night in bangkok" from Murray Head, love it but anxiousness listening too as a kid and many more same feelings. So when a band and their music, touched me so deeply as a kid, musically receptively born, with 40 years of experience, i put them on a Top 5.
@@girs666 I’m 69 and started out with the Beatles, Kinks, Hermans Hermits, Animals, Steppenwolf, Who, Rolling Stones, Jimmy Hendrix, Jethro Tull, etc and any new band that hit the radio back in the mid to late 60’s. Then the 70’s where I can’t name them all, so there were and are too many incredible bands and music to put them in my top 5, though I really like their music! Most everyone back then growing up were into Rock ‘n Roll, Southern Rock and Progressive, Blues. Hope you have a wonderful day!
Great band! I'm happy to know people do actually give them recognition.
I listened to Supertramp practically non-stop in the late 70s, one of my absolute favourites! Would love to hear Elizabeth’s analysis of Talk Talk’s It’s My Life - Mark Hollis had the most amazing voice
When I was 16 I had this in my 8 track player in my 1967 camero.
Same here, but in my 1967 fastback Mustang!
The intro on Crime of the Century is a different improvisation but equally good. Supertramp were immensely talented
I couldn't click on this reaction fast enough!!!!!
So much talent in this band. They were so amazing live also.
My favorite Supertramp song from the first time I heard it when it first came out. Conjures up sitting in my attic bedroom listening to it on the radio the first time I heard it. every time I hear it now. Playful, yes. I'd never heard them described that way before, but yes, it's exactly that. Glad you finally got to this one. And yes, Roger on the guitar and he's terrific. That is what makes the song for me.
“Oh Darling” is another of my personal favorites. ❤
Haven't heard this song in ages; yet another one that makes me want to be the DJ of a radio show bringing all these old songs back to radio audiences today. I do remember how much I enjoyed singing the "You're bloody well right!" part as a kid; I think this dates back to my preteen years when I was just absorbing whatever music my older sister was buying and playing.
They are having a lot of "live fun" in this recording . They are tight !!!
The piano intro is in the studio version, but he definitely improvised it here. One of the best live shows I have ever seen. That was 1977. Such a great time for music. Crisis? What Crisis?, Crime of the Century and Even in the Quietest Moments are so good it's impossible to choose a best.
this song was my first introduction to the band and my favorite
First song to catch my attention to Supertramp, back in the day, it was a different world.
Love Supertramp! Incredible music genius!
This song starts all light, airy and playful to gritty to playful again! ❤ Supertramp!
"nerding out" Elizabeth is the best Elizabeth as you explain so much in an easy way to understand and you can see how much passion you have, thank you so much
I saw just the title, and it was stuck in my head, such a good song.
I saw them probably 79-80ish. Things was smokey and hazy back then. The amazing thing was they played a lot of instruments and they are masters at them all. They surely light up Cleveland that night with awesome music. Unbelievable show.
I'm a new subscriber, lover of music of all genres, and a vocal nerd wannabe! I adore your reactions and learn so much about my voice and how it works. Just saying thank you! Keep slaying Elizabeth!! ☮️💜☮️💜☮️💜☮️💜
Supertramp is the quintessential example of the sum being greater than the parts.
It's so interesting to me to learn the why of the songs I enjoyed in my youth were so enjoyable.
Yay!! Some Rick Davies action!!
I came here to watch Elizabeth's beautiful face and extraordinary facial expressions as she got overwhelmed with some of the laid back jazzy rhythmic creativity of these 2 amazing singers! You didn't disappoint me Elizabeth!! You are a "real music nerd"!! 😍I had a stupid grin on my face the whole episode!
I grew up in the mid 70s hearing them, probably as I entered high school in '79 and fell in love with their qwerky jazz and rock styles interwoven with their amazing vocal style with superb and complex song writing. They are true entertainers and musicians that created such wonderful songs and memories such as this one! During high school I majored in music for 4 years, so found their semi classical stuff stirred my heartstrings as I played classical piano and studied all the dead composers. I still love listening to their albums today. While many of my teen peers were listening to punk and head banging 4 bar hard rock, while I was immersed in Super Tramp, ELO, Alan Parsons Project, Tubular Bells and many others I now can't remember, which just had more complex structure and form. My favourite is probably "Even in the Quietest Moments" with all those beaut syncopated acoustic 12 string rhythms, alto sax, high tenor voices undergirded by strong bass. Just so many wonderful songs...❤ Real musical story tellers! Cheers from New Zealand, David
❤Even in the Quietest Moments❤
Goodbye Stranger should be next please, from same Paris concert
Goodbye stranger has to come next. It shows off rick and rogers high voice’s off perfectly
Also John.
Their first 4 albums are absolute perfection. Id love to see you do a video on a song from "crisis? What crisis?" Some day
The Live In Paris album to me is one of the best live albums ever. Everything is so well done.
Supertramp were a mighty mighty force. And sometimes extremely funny as well. So much more than a rock band!
She's a fan, she's a fan, of the Supertramp band!
Nailed it! … I think.
Cheers 🍺
Love the song and that was such a great performance. And singing through a cone like that was actually a big thing before PA systems in some kinds of music. Rudy Vallee when he was young was a heartthrob, and my grandma told me she got to go see him when she was 14 years old, and all the girls would jockey for position in front of the stage to look down the length of the cone, where they could see his lips as he sang, lol. 😊
I remember first hearing this track in around 1975 as a 12 year old, and feeling like a real deviant, singing such strong swear words "bloody well right" out loud!! LOL
Hearing this as a freshman in High School, was my introduction to Supertramp ! Great band !😎😎😎
I believe that keyboard is a Wurlitzer electric piano.
Loved Crime of the Century when it came out and saw them at the Usher Hall in Edinburgh. Superb concert and great sound, second only to Yes who I'd seen there a year earlier. A unique band, nobody else produced their type of music, and it's still fresh today
Elizabeth will luuuv the Intro...and the Hair! 😁 #letsgettoit
Finally Elizabeth! I've been waiting for this since the end of May when you told me you were reacting to it. I'm excited to hear what you think about Rick's singing and Roger's guitar playing. Even though I work during the day, I am going to try to listen to it on my break and lunch because I don't think I can wait until I get home.
I was there for the premiere and it started off so fast I checked out. Now here I am like a week or so later and I'm actually enjoying it
Every time you discover one of my favorites, and I get to hear it again for the very first time, vicariously, through your earholes....
you're ability to express and convey wonder is infectious.
Huge fan. Great reaction!!!
Seriously, there is no such thing as a bad Supertramp song. They are just so incredibly talented and fun.
I was 14 when this song came out and it blew me away.
Goodbye Stranger i think is their best sing with so many harmonies. Please react to this song next.
Roger is such an interesting guitarist, I love it when he switches over from the keys. Such tasty playing. ❤. Thank you.
Real music, Elizabeth🥰
My favourite Supertramp composition.
Such a terrible loss that Davies and Hodgson couldn't work out the problems between the two of them. Supertramp was one of the best bands ever. I still regularly listen to all of their albums and their music is still so relevant and meaningful to me. I don't understand how the music of today has turned into such crap when there are plenty of older bands like Supertramp that knew exacly what a song is supposed to be, how to write it, record and produce it, and then for new music to all sound alike and totally meaningless.
They are playing it super fast. Much faster than the original recording.
I love your reactions. I have been a Supertramp fan ever since I was a child, am 59. Really appreciate you breaking down what makes the music/technique work so well. A song that I believe really showcases Rick's vocals is Gone Hollywood. Would love to see your reaction to that one, along with all their other songs lol :)
You're good at doing these reactions. This is a song I grew up with and I love it. I doubt that people will ever write songs like this again.
the 1983 recording in Germany with added sax player scotty page is my favorite
Can't believe Super tramp as a kid in late 70s and 80s and now you're hearing it 🎉
FINALLY IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS! Im glad that she can finally see the other singer rick davies. He and roger have such different voices yet they are both so unique and interesting
3 great bands that are each very different but have that something that connects them in my mind (ears): Supertramp, ELO and Steely Dan. Many great songs for one’s “feel-good” playlist! 😊
Rick Davies always reminds me of Schnabel's saying "when its difficult, make faces."
I love his facial expressions.
Been a fan since Crime of the Century and Breakfast in America came out. Fantastic group.
A really intelligent And talented bad. Rare.
Alice Cooper's Billion Dollar Baby, School's Out, or Poison are fabulous songs to be looked at. Especially since she loves Dio as much as she does.
I agree with your suggestion Alice Cooper is always a win, but i disagree with your song choices. I am a huge Ali e fan I have seen him live several times. Alice is not a “good” singer he is a very stylized singer. I have seen Elizabeth turned off to a performer because of a sub par vocal performance despite is being a very popular song. So I’d suggest a little more vocal craft oriented song like “Milli and Billi” or just about anything off Trash maybe “poison” as over played as it is for me.
I think Elizabeth might prefer his voice on something like "Hello Hooray" or "Elected", or even a ballad like "I Never Cry" or "Only Women Bleed"...The studio versions of these songs are great examples of "proto-harsh" vocals from one of the pioneers and masters of the craft. Even something like "I'm Eighteen" is a fine example of using harshness to convey emotion.
Saw them live 1978-79 era in Market Square Arena in Indianapolis Indiana. No doubt the best live performance I’ve seen by a band. They played some old stuff and new as well. When I want to chill, I’ll put my headphones on and listen to the Crime of the Century album. Still in my top 5 albums of all time. It moves me! Thanks for choosing Supertramp.
I love when you do artists from the 60's 70's & 80's. Probably because i think a large amount of the best music ever was made during that time. I have 3 requests from the 60's of exceptional vocal performances that I would LOVE to watch you react to. First, Sarah Vaughn doing Misty. Live in 1964. This one will blow you away. Amazing. Also Dionne Warwick- I'll Never Fall in Love Again. It's the tiny subtle things she does that makes this one so impressive. And Frankie Valli & the Four Seasons doing Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You.
