      Are you referring to the lead singer? If not my bad. Cause her name is Merrill Garbus. If you combine her first and last name it does sound like Maris though haha

    @K3WhoDat 9 років тому +20

    Love this video. Love this album. Love this sound. It just makes me happy. It's so unique and original. Merrill is a god damn genius. Pretty hot too. Especially when she smiles while singing in this video. You can tell there is nothing else she would rather be doing than performing her songs. She gives me fuzzy feelings in the belly.
    LOVE THEM!

      @jessicagrab514 9 років тому +7

      Elizabeth Clair In that case, perhaps the Family Marsalis should stop playing classical; created by a group of mostly long-haired, all white European men. The race card has expired and there will be no further issuance of same.

    • @RecentlyJournal
      @RecentlyJournal 8 років тому +3

      +downeybill actually meril says that she's heavily inspired by african music. this is something inspired by. not exactly it! i love tune yards. but i can totally hear the african influence.

    • @gettauttraining60
      @gettauttraining60 7 років тому

      Jessica Grab technically appropriating music isn't the same as conforming to the dominant culture of music as in the case of the marsalis family. But truthfully all American music originated in the slave tradition...so it's really more acculturation at this point. we are all experimenting and learning from each other.

Big music enterprises washed their brains with Lady Gaga, and that kind of drilling stuff. A+ for tUnE-yArDs!

    • @rubenximenes
      @rubenximenes 9 років тому +2

      Absolutely no chance of this going mainstream. It's just too "out-there", creative and rebellious.The populace eats up and enjoys whatever they're fed, as long as they don't have to think much about it, so big labels will keep pushing disposable plastic music to fed the masses. For they too are disposable and plastic...

    They opened for David Byrne at Monmouth U., nonstop from beginning to end. The woman I was there with, who I am having an affair with knew all their music and was dancing like a crazy lady. We both turned 60 about the same time, I've known her since 8th grade. She took me to my first Talking Heads show in NYC in 1978. I married the wrong person as did she. Let the days go by..and remember, every word fights for its life!
