The opening 45 seconds of this blow my mind every time I listen to them.

The Real Group is just absolutely outstanding. They do some of the best arrangements of already amazing songs and really make them their own. This mashup was so funky. I loved it.

Incroyable et formidable ! Les meilleurs au monde ! Toujours originaux et en avancent sur leur temps !!

Very ingenious!!!! ❤❤

Wow ... what a performance 👍👍

"Around the world" !! It's amazing..

Wow...what great phrasing and melding of 4 different songs. I think I was way more excited at the end of this than the audience appeared to be. They sure have a fat, well developed sound. Thanks for posting this! This and "It don't mean a thing" are my favorites so far. (But I've yet to check them all out.)

Impressive. And What no ear they hace. No words.

Amazing, same as at the concert I saw live in Vienna in Nov. 2012!

Simply breath taking!!!

Dude! These people r absolutely awesome!!! I took choir a couple years ago, and we learned a lot about these guys! Before i took choir, i never heard of the real group. Thank u so much Mr. Hendrickson for being an amazing choir teacher!!!

The Real Group is not a music.. but The Art.

Ooh that Bass line. Great harmonies

This is my first time to listen this group's song. i feeling like im in the seventh heaven!

I now in love with the Bassman.....smooth,deep Bass....Alvin Chea😍 I still love u too... Hopefully I can pick up more things from you guys

Amazing!!!!

Ich weiss nicht, wie sie dieses Kunststück schaffen, aber es ist phänomenal

This is sooo fun!

AMAZING!

No se puede creeeeeerrrrrrrr!!!!!!! Son unos genios!!!!!!!! ¿ Cuando vienen a la Argentina? Please!

woman(sry new fan)Rapers delight/ good times - two 80's hits with the same bass-line. A very well used bass-line. Anders J- Rappers Deligth and Good times. these are not the only songs with this bass-line. there are also other artists that have used it on other songs. One of the more known is the following. - Queen made this famous and then it sounded like this: Morten ( tries to communicate, but its in danish so nobody understands ) - And you can hear its ... person something daft punk.

耳にいいよなぁ

The woman's name is Katarina Henryson. :) Thanks for this!

I guess... Her part at 3:06 is very important becouse it loops for many times at the last of this music . So they had to decide to use pre-recording sound.

Matt, On the contrary, I do believe what my eyes and ears tell me, and both say that plainly, TRG was either lip-synching live or, ok, they rerecorded the audio in post-production. But their audio and their video do NOT perfectly match, as say, the Live From Stockholm Sets One and Two videos. Not only do I stick by my original observations about specific inconsistencies, esp. Emma at 3:07 walking away from the mic while her voice continued (no, she did not continue the sound with a mic in her hand, not even close), but listen closely at approx. 1:00. There is a female voice (probably Katarina's) who is chanting while TWO other female voices continue the "dit, dit, dit". That's THREE female voices! Perhaps it is sacrosanct to even imply that TRG could do such a thing, but the evidence speaks for itself. One more thing: In an interview with Peder Karllson (sp?), he was asked if they do overdubs. He replied that they did. Granted, he probably meant that's on their studio recordings. So, go back to Good Times, look and listen closely, suspend all judgment, and let the synchronization, or lack thereof, lead you to the conclusions that it must. No doubt you have watched their LIVE FROM STOCKHOM videos. Those were unbeatable live performances, with definitely no post production audio altering, that is, mouths and audio were ALWAYS perfectly aligned. Again, great lip-synching can fool you completely (as it's supposed to) if it's perfect, but ONE slip-up and the secret's out. All that said, they are easily the finest a capella group in the world. Even with the newer members, songs such as PASS ME THE JAZZ are phenomenal and unsurpassed.

+Steve Mullins Not trying to reply to everything you're saying here (probably going to leave this thread, actually), but I do want to point out one thing you've mentioned for which I think there happens to be a completely innocuous explanation: of the three women's voices we hear at 1:00, one is Katarina's (talking, I guess explaining the song and how it explores the re-use of this particular bass line across popular songs), one is a replayed loop of Emma's just-finished "dit-dit" part (on an E), and one is ostensibly Emma live-singing (and recording another loop) on a slightly lower "dit-dit" part (starting on D). Shortly later (c. 1:04), Emma even goes on to lay down another, higher-pitched "dit-dit" loop (starting on G) at which point we hear not two but three copies of Emma... and presumably everyone should be fine with that, because this particular live performance is clearly meant to be based on live looping. I mean, they're very up-front about it, with that one mike on the stand in the corner to which everyone walks in order to record their particular loop, when it's their turn. The whole thing starts out with obvious intentional live looping, where they pull down all those seemingly random syllables that come together to build the famous "Rapper's Delight" lyrics, and it's fun. Looping is not a bad thing here.

+Steve Mullins I guess that on the mic that's to the right of the screen, where they all take turns to sing on, there's a looper; in fact you see the blond counter-tenor sometimes looking down and trying to aim his foot on the device. That's why you have several loops... They are simply genious... to synchronize the beginning and making the loop on the go is mind-blowing!!!!

To TheLordPresident: Your self-exalted title speaks for itself. Buckwheat, your "entire point" WAS my point: One of two things happened: Either they pre-recorded Good Times, and, then lip-synched live to the track, OR, they actually sang it live, then didn't like how it sounded and re-recorded their voices to perfection in post production. Whichever method they used, they, on video, are trying to give you the illusion that they are actually singing live. It's a no-brainer that when a singer's mouth does not perfectly line up with the audio at ALL times, you know they're lip-synching. Duh. When Emma Nilsdotter pulled away from the mic and her voice continued, and Anders slipped up, their secret was out. Game over. And, as unusually animated as Anders was on GOOD TIMES, when he and his mouth didn't match his singing, my money says they lip-synched. He never slipped up like that ANYWHERE in the STOCKHOLM VIDEOS. Go study it. And, no, MATT LIBBY, if they are really good at lip-synching, the audience may well NOT have noticed. Then, again, perhaps many did notice, and you'll just never know. My theory is that they lip-synched it, and their unusually animated choreography helped to distract the audience from detecting any lip-synching - but on that score I can't be sure.Neither live lip-synching or post-production patch up is something the original five did in their LIVE FROM STOCKHOLM SET ONE and SET TWO concert. In those videos, if you listen (and look) carefully, over and over, you'll begin to hear tiny imperfections, which is to be expected even from an amazing group like TRG - imperfections, by the way, you never EVER heard on their CD's. All of their CD's are keyboard perfect. To perform live, and be that in tune and that in synch standing that far away from each other at times is truly an amazing feat, both from a personal vocal expertise standpoint and a hell of a good monitoring set up. The original five were just such amazing vocalists and had sung together for such a very long time (20 years) that they just really did do that well. If there was EVER a concert where the original five would have wanted to put their very best foot forward by doctoring the audio, it would have been at the STOCKHOLM CONCERT, yet it was all live, and, so, there were NO inconsistencies EVER between audio and video. If you still doubt that they lip synch, go watch PASS ME THE JAZZ. At --3:25--, Anders actually coughs, with hand to mouth and then quickly continues to "sing". I have watched that video at least 50+ times over the past year (no kidding), and I only caught it a few weeks ago. Someone else in the REPLY menu caught it also. So, I know lip-synching can be hard to detect. That's the way they want it. Mr. Lord, to recap from an earlier reply: Get off your throne and go back and look at time code --2:34-- on "Good Times", and you'll see that Anders mispronounces the words "...to the sound of the beat". He doesn't sing the word "beat" and then on the "wah, oh, oh," his mouth opens up and he appears to not be singing, yet that's what you hear. Watch and listen carefully. Also, at --3:00--, Emma is definitely singing the scat (the camera is on her) and at --3:07-- she walks away but her sound continues. The mic is in her left hand, but she does not raise it to her mouth to sing, as the following camera angle shows. it's still at her side. To top it off, at --3:18-- as she and the others walk forward, she sings "Good times", and then lowers her mic on the words, "And other one bites...". Yes, they had to doctor that video.Mat Libby could be right that they don't lip synch, but which ever, it's either pre- or post- doctoring. But, how he knows they don't lip-synch, well, he really doesn't - unless he knows the group personally. I don't absolutely know that they do lip-synch. I do know it's simply got to be pre- or post- doctoring, of that I'm sure. It's a carefully guarded secret, for sure. So, "Lord", why not save your name-calling for someone else, and put your own reasonable explanation out there. I've studied this group more than you could possibly imagine, and still revere them as THE standard. SINGERS UNLIMITED and TAKE 6 (both on You Tube) are in their league. Everyone else is a distant second. VERTICAL VOICES (You Tube) are also very good.FYI: did you happen to see an interview with Peder Karlson where he was asked if they (the original five) ever overdubbed in the studio? His reply, words to the effect was that they did"."Lord", let's see: someone with no explanation whatsoever (you) then just uses obscenities to tell someone else not to use obscenities. I think we know who the moron is. Put out a reasonable explanation, Einstein. Or, if you simply do not want to believe anything but the sound of your own opinion, then, by all means, delude yourself. If your mind is made up, any facts to the contrary are not going to matter.Can't wait for your next intelligent reply.

Well, to be honest, I literally did not think to deep into this at all. While I revere your outstanding argumentation, and envy your dedication to this matter, this entire thing doesn't matter to me. Like, I honestly don't really care. I have so many other things to do right now to refute your argument, so I concede. I will say, though, that I think you are wasting your energy on the wrong thing. Unless you have unlimited free time, I doubt that putting that much effort into your refutation was worth anything. You should use that energy for something more productive. And, I mean, again, I appreciate your intelligence, I guess, because it sounds like you have no shortage of that. But I'll be honest, I didn't even read even a quarter of what you just said. I don't know if that's an indication to how tired I am right now (studying for 3 APs, currently in 4 choirs, and in 4 shows, simultaneouisly), an indication of my stupidity (I don't think so, but intelligence is subjective so...) or just the pointlessness of putting that much effort into something as proving me wrong. I dunno. To me, The Real Group is just perfect. I have hear almost everything they have, and really want to study some of their scores. I personally doubt very much that they would cheat the audience into lip dubbing. That just doesn't seem like something they have to do. Maybe it's ignorance on my part. Maybe I have to much faith in them. In any case, it's not like this will shake my beliefs that they are the best vocal jazz ensemble (and I saw Take 6 live during the NAU Jazz Madrigal festival a few weeks ago, so the bar is pretty high) That's all I have to say. Like I said, I'm really tired right now, and under any normal circumstance I would probably just fall asleep instead of responding. However, I feel like I should put in some effort to match the intensity of your argument. I probably don't come close, but we'll see. Have a good night!

Bom, muito bom. Porém a formação atual me soa melhor.

At 2:34 Anders mispronounces the word "..to the sound of the 'BEAT'". He doesn't pronounce the word "beat", and then on the "wah, oh, oh," his mouth opens up and does NOT appear to sing, "Woh.", yet that's what is heard being sung. Watch carefully. Also, at 3:00, Emma is definitely singing the scat (the camera is on HER), and at 3:07 she then walks away but her sound continues. Yes, the mic is in her left hand, but she does NOT raise it to her mouth to sing, as the following camera angle shows. The mic is still down at her side. To top it off, at 3:18, as she and the others walk forward, she sings "Good times", and then lowers her mic on the words, "And another one bites..." Busted again. Again, with real singing there is never, EVER, a discrepancy between the words the mouth appear to be forming and the audio that comes out of that mouth. Their audio recording is just too perfect, and with all the movement they're doing (which helps to distract the audience from any possible missed mouth cue), their voices couldn't be THAT spot on. Even in the "Live from Stockholm" Sets One and Two, there are the very occasional, very very slight discrepancies, which prove they are indeed really singing, and which you would never hear in their recordings, AND their mouth movements ALWAYS perfectly match their audio. THOSE live performances are truly amazing, which could only be achieved by a LOT of rehearsing and living with that music and singing with each other for a very long time.

I even noticed the exact same moment that he's calling out before I read his comment. But it's not the end of the world if TRG lip-synched parts of this thing. Given the number of performances this group has given over its LONG history, something like this was bound to happen eventually. It's just kind of a downer to see it happen yourself like this, with a group that I greatly respect like TRG.

3:06....? i dont want to think the real group uses lip sync,but......

남자분 기계음은 특수효과 넣은건가요?

I hate to say this but this song proves that, on at least some of TRG's songs, they lip synch. Watch and listen carefully to Emma Nilsdotter as she scats at around 3:00. At 3:07 she pulls away from the mic but her voice continues. Busted. Live singing is always perfect lip/voice synchronization. ANY slight deviation and the secret is out. Yes, they are amazing, but it now makes me wonder if they use other techniques to achieve their extraordinary sound like pitch correction mics, or just singing to their own recordings. Their entrances and general pitch even on their live performances are just so amazing; so is is ALL real? I would not be surprised if they use a click track in their earpieces, and they do use an ear device of some sort. Very briefly you can see Margareta adjust hers in the Live from Stockholm concert (whether Set One or Two, I can't remember).

HOWEVER, they alter their live perfomances sometimes to make the live perfomances durable for videos and replay value. The sound of this video is probably modified from the original live perfomance, but wasnt lip synched during the concert.

+Safetylast That would certainly make more sense, i.e. that the audio was fiddled with post-performance in order to make the video better somehow (as opposed to TRG actually lip-syncing live, which would just be insane, not to mention noticeable to the audience). Still, if they do somehow replace the audio after the performance, I think that's regrettable, first because it invites this kind of speculation (i.e. the whole "do they lip sync live" question), and second because, frankly, I really doubt they need it. I'd much rather see TRG's live performances as-is, warts and all, because they're usually just absolutely superb, even if there is the occasional "mistake".

@JACKSONPRYORBENNETT

7 жыл бұрын

Hey so, I'm new to this group and not super familiar with them, but that mic they're all singing to is definitely for looping parts, which is why her voice is continuing after pulling away from that mic. That happens multiple times in the video, with each of the singers. If you notice you can also see they all have their own mics, which only reinforces the fact they are using the one on the stand for looping. Looping things live is generally how it's done so that the performer can be sure what their looping is fitting perfectly in the groove, feel, tuning of the song. Also the things in their ears are likely in-ears which protect the ears of the performer and it also puts a mix of their preference in their ear so they can hear what they need to hear to perform their best, that mix is designed by the sound engineer. Pretty much every pro musician ever uses those.

Amazing!!!
