Best orchestra in the world, I had the opportunity to watch them and the Montreal Jazz festival 2014 OMG, It was so fun and every one was happy that day, love them.
Me too I watch them in Montréal, it was amazing!
Beautiful 😍
And I bet you never saw another orchestra, especially good ones. The orchestra that played with Metallica is so much better 😆
@@ffokcuf761 Somehow I really doubt that. Metallica wouldn't know a good orchestra if it stepped up and raped 'em, self-serious wankers.

The moon belongs to everyone
The best things in life are free
The stars belong to everyone
They gleam there for you and me
The flowers in spring
The robins that sing
The sunbeams that shine
They're yours, and they're mine
love can come to everyone
The best things in life are free
If this can't make you smile..you are dead inside.
In my opinion, they are best orchestra in the solar system. (Full disclosure: I’ve seen them on various interplanetary venues).
Still love coming back to this song anytime I need a pick up.
And now this song is in the public domain, no longer protected by copyright.
The best things in life really are free.
If you don't smile when you watch this look to your soul.
Although I was in a punk band, Tyrone and his boys would take me to Perkins Palace in Pasadena to experience the most fun a person could have...dancing to ska bands in the early eighties. Thanks Mr Gilmer. This one brings me back.
I've never seen such a lively band, great, thank you
Pat’s voice.....! OMG!!
I know right! Soo good.
LOL, even a studio session is near chaos. Love these people.
Wow, The Blues Brothers of Ska is the highest kind of accolade I can give. That's how good this is (and The Blues Brothers are the best).
I'm always happy when I hear this song. Super effective medication for depression.
In all my 20 years of being a ska fan, I've never heard of these guys, but I like this a lot!
Greetings from the California Delta, where I’m sheltering from coronavirus, politics and wildfires by remembering what it was like to hear orchestras play! And my introduction to ska music in 1982, sophomore in high school:

@@formerlyferalfelines9027 Every good ska fan remembers their entrance into skaville! For me it was a roommate in college who played The Bosstones in her room while getting high with her boyfriend. I loved the sound of the horns & catchy tunes. I then saw them play in Boston with a couple of my friends. Then I started becoming a dj at my college radio station & started to play songs from the group, Mephiskapheles & another tune called "Fat Lady Skank". That's how I learned that this style of music with horns had a name. Then I went home for the winter & found out that there was another dj playing ska music on his radio show. He played The Batman Theme by Skavoovie & The Epitones. I bought the CD that that tune was on & that was it for me! Skavoovie was the first group that ever made me fall in love with the music. Then I went back & started listening to 60's ska, rocksteady, early reggae, calypso, & even soca. I don't really go to shows anymore like I used to, & don't listen to the music as much as I did, but I still love it. I always will.
I now right I also just discovered these guys and now whenever I want to slit my life away I just put them on and jam and fude they got me dancing my blues away. THEY'RE FUCKING AWESOME
Que maravilla!!!!! Gracias por regalarnos tan estupenda música. Un abrazo desde las antípodas, desde España.
Haber si vienen
Sí, a ver...
Love from Indonesia!!!!
I've watched it a 1000 times. I never tire, love it - and them - to bits.
Hope all involved can feel satisfied that this few minutes of vid - and the many minutes it took them to create it - made the world a happier place.
MSO: if you look up the word 'happy' in the dictionary, there's a picture of MSO!

This song is so right. The best things in life are free indeed. We just have to appreciate them. 😍
Great band....love the mix and blend. Every instrument shines. Gotta see this band live....would be a treat.

I had never heard the song fellows and when I heard your version and the great arrangement, I had to add it to my repertoire, I have become a fan from the UK. As a Caribbean artist, I found it very very good arrangement and Thanks for bring it to my attention. My version is on UA-cam under Marcus Garvey. Thanks again. Keep skanking peeps.
