      It's really challenging to sing and play drums at the same time, especially with such a complex song.

    I am blown away by how much each video seems to "one up" the one before in terms of professionalism and vocal and musical skill. It seems so effortless, but I know it's the result of a lot of innate talent plus years of practice and growing together as a family and a "band". Kudos!

    Great job!! This song goes to the heart of our reality that is denied day after day despite all the signs of dire change and disasters being reported. Yes corporations and timid, venal governments are the main forces aligned against meaningful timely responses to the climate crisis but we all participate when we pretend it is not happening. Keep on sending out messages like this Marsh folks. Your work just keeps on getting better!

    • @barrybrideaux2919
      @barrybrideaux2919 Рік тому +1

      The alternative is the same result. Crashing economies and people losing jobs and loss of food. Creates the same disaters. That is why some are slow to change to meet what you call a fix. A fix that results in the same diaster is not a fix. Talking point in politicians mouths with no true and capable path to meet those talking points does not solve the problem.

  • @jdm1505
    @jdm1505 Рік тому +40

    Brilliant! And the Police didn't have a cornet, which is a great addition to the song (and Ella's best performance on the instrument so far). Also love Thomas's vocals, and Tess holding the note at about 1:28 is impressive.

When I watch this particular video I think of the Fijian people moving their villages further & further inland as the coastal tide rises. Islands in the Pacific Ocean are disappearing right now. This is a very urgent message you're sending.

    Oh my goodness that's one of your best yet chaps. Your voices sound amazing, its fascinating to hear the childrens voices maturing so beautifully.
    Having just voted Green in the local elections and followed the powerful rise in Green councillors elected I feel more hopeful than I have for a while.
    Combined with the Coronation of the person who first sent out an SOS when he was in his twenties, fifty years ago, I really hope that behind the scenes the influence of King Charles III has some effect on the leaders of the world and we can accelerate measures to mitigate climate change in the nick of time after all.
    Your influence us also becoming powerful, keep up the good work Marshes.👏👍🙏💚

    Excellent production as usual. I live 750 feet above sea level, dig one foot down and it is sand! i.e it was once a beach. The climate has been changing requrlarly for millions of years. We only need one big volcanic eruption and we could be in another ice age. Whilst I agree that we should do everything possible to reduce pollution and waste the scaremongering of climate activists is not necessary. We should be moving coastal communities out of danger before it is too late. A tusami in the North sea, which has happened before, could wipe out coastal communities without global warming.

How you have grown and matured into such a tight band of musicians - pure joy... and it never ceases to amaze me how you all achieve such high standards so frequently while you must also be so busy with work and education and life itself ... You make it look so easy and yet you must be very disciplined to rehearse then deliver as you do ... Your arrangements to incorporate and challenge all your combined instrumental skills are always spot on with such excellent choices of the many great and often complex songs you parody with your superb lyrics. Congratulations on being YOU!

    Maybe it's me, but Thomas could pass (no sarcasm I promise) for a young Sting. It's amazing to see how the family has grown so much physically, musically and with their overall confidence--especially Tess, she has grown frow a little girl to a young woman over the ensuing years. I'm not completely certain, but I sense some tongue in cheek about the coronation itself hence the focus on the King's cause instead. Although I'm sure they are a pain in the arse, I really do enjoy seeing you furry accompaniments in the videos. Great work as always Marshes!
