Jessica Wilson Boyd Kristin, here's another PMJ cover with Haley Reinhart. Still think Creep is the best, though.

+Chris Graham Creep is incredible. Only Haley Reinhart could have pulled it off. That song is a perfect fit for her voice.

I think Scott/PMJ management senses 7NA is going to be well-received.

I think so to Miguel. It may be bigger than Creep???
It just makes me break into a big silly grin when I see her having this kind of success.

I'm really looking forward to the video of SNA. This is the first of Haley's PMJ songs where I hadn't heard the original version previously. Great jazzy rendition, it really showcases her voice, the sultry side, the growls, just the command and power of her voice is amazing. And the horns, wow. Love that trumpet mute sound. Thursday won't come soon enough!

Scott Bradlee put this one together just for you guys and has another gem coming in a little more than a day!

In this one Haley provides dreamy, timeless vocals along with our vintage arrangement in doing a rendition of Radiohead's "Creep" which was all amazingly done here in a single take in Zurich, Switzerland during a day off from touring.

i thought it interesting that Scott used a thumbnail, one of the best photos from their tour, by Emily Butler, for the "Creep" video he posted on Facebook. His videos normally don't usually use thumbnail art

Lyndsay Parker has a write up on PMJ including a comment from Scott About Haley (and Casey)

“All of them have very jazzy sensibilities already and this retro thing. Haley has this combination of Ella Fitzgerald, Janis Joplin, a really unique style. Casey is awesome, just a force of nature. You just put a camera on him and he creates awesome stuff,” raves Bradlee.

However, Bradlee admits he’s no fan of TV talent shows like Idol and The Voice.

“Really the only good thing about those kinds of competitions is they can introduce talent to America, and there are so many awesome performers such as Casey and Haley and Blake. I think it’s valuable to do those shows just for exposure, but I think the worst thing that can happen to you is you win one of those shows, because you’re going to give away all your freedom,” he warns. “And I realize that nowadays, you don’t really need to give up all that. You don’t need to sign a restrictive contract to get exposure. It’s just not necessary. What those shows provide for an artist isn’t worth what you’re required to give up.”

Perhaps Bradlee’s disdain has something to do with those shows using his arrangements, he claims, without proper credit. While last season’s Voice contestant Kimberly Nichole, who performed a version of Radiohead’s “Creep” that sounded suspiciously similar to Reinhart and PMJ’s recent version, later tweeted that PMJ was her inspiration, other shows and contestants haven’t been quite as transparent, Bradlee gripes.

One reality contestant that actually helped the PMJ cause, however, was Joey Cook from American Idol Season 12, who did her own PMJ-inspired rendition of “Fancy” this year and praised PMJ during her backstage interview with Ryan Seacrest.

“Joey was actually the first one to give us credit; she was responsible for our first prime-time television shoutout,” says Bradlee. “That was such a flattering thing, and even kind of unnecessary, because her arrangement of 'Fancy’ was much different from ours. But it shows what an awesome person she is, along with being an awesome talent. She’s going to be somebody to watch, somebody big. We are going to be working together, and who knows what will happen.”

Bradlee optimistically says he’s “still waiting for one of the original artists to make a cameo in one of our videos,” but the way things are going for PMJ right now, it wouldn’t be all that surprising if Lorde or Beyoncé ended up in his living room one day.
