I honestly dunno what that first woman is doing there, it sounds aweful to me, way too exaggerated and weird, I mean, if you have seen and listened to the video with Kate Davis, that's how its done! and she even played the bass simultaneously so come on
and btw: that dress looks horrible, WTF

The finished product. Well done, team #pmjtour
BTW, early metrics show this AATB video is getting a very large number of views. In 7 hours it has well over 5K Likes. Views are listed as about 25K, but that number lags.

Good points.
I think they put out this video because Scott likes to keep the wheels greased and, being a familiar song, it was something relatively easy for all of them to do.
But it's a mixed blessing.
Having multiple singers in the video, and covering something they had done before, only invites comparisons -- many of them negative. And comments that one singer outshines the others encourages fans of the other performers to make derogatory comments in response.

RE: Haley joining PMJ for part of European tour
I have a hunch maybe a reason Scott wanted to record this version of AATB is he liked the dynamic that the ladies brought in their Harmonies, especially at the end, which separated it, made it distinctive, a bit, from Kate's widely liked cover w/ PMJ
I liked that Scott placed Haley squarely in the center, not by accident
I wonder, now that they've set a precedent of recording something they've previously recorded w/ other artists, does that open the door to Haley covering "Creep"? #WishFullThinking... but is it? Scott HAD to have felt the sheer power in Haley's performance of the song in Lyon...
