Thank you David, I always try to have a look at the numbers you provide. I missed them for a certain period because they no longer pop up at the top of the forum. However I found them again. It’s a pity that no more people go to the originals after listing to the covers.

I can agree with mentioned Due Sessions, they are all great. But my favorite one is, also because it it introduced me to Sixto Rodiques.

Thanks for all the numbers over 2024, David. I do not comment a lot, however I always look at your posts related to “Simultaneous MLT YouTube Views”.

I find it always interesting to see documentaries about an album, because you learn more about the music, what you miss when you listen. An other documentary about St.Pepper is from The Analoques, how to reproduce the sound:

Joseph, Mona and Lisa stated the following in their comment by Penny Lane – The Last Recording: We came up with some extra harmonies though, where there aren’t any on the original. Listening back after all those years we actually quite like them – maybe one day we should re-record it? … Well, maybe after we’ve done all the other 34059745 songs…

An other look at the same subject/article https://youtu.be/ekNGVggJ4vQ

Look at what Rick Beato said about this subject on YouTube.

I can not agree more.

Thanks Tim, I did not know this version.

I always want to add some Dutch element to the forum, so I have to mention Jan Akkerman as one of the best guitarists. He was votted best guitarist of the world in 1973. I mentioned in the past one of the bands he played in, Focus with Hocus Pocus (see advent calendar 2022 day 3).

Thanks David,

Not sure if you post this below my comment others will see it, I think more people are interested.

I think I ”agree” with the list, I myself watch the new songs/video’s more often on YouTube and the others, older songs, I listen more via my MonaLisa streaming playlists; I was the no. 1 listener to the MonaLisa Twins on…

Thanks for all numbers, or is it figures, David. Funny to see what happens in one month. Is it possible for you to give e.g. at the end of the year the total number of views of (all) the original MTL songs. I sometimes look at the numbers, but no idea if the original with e.g. a total number of views of 450.000 in 9 years, if it is watched…

Great song, I always remember this version from Live Aid 1985 (getting old)

David, and others,

thanks for all the statistics, I find it interesting reading material. I also see that you try to explain the numbers e.g. why one months more views then an other months. My thoughts about this are

a) the simplest one is number of days in a months

b) M&L often release a new video on the last Sunday of a months, if…

It seems I also have the MonaLisa Twins a lot on my mind and I am also talking a lot about them. The result is that I had “Mona Lisa” socks for my birthday (the Leonardo Mona Lisa).

I like how he starts with “Listening to them so you don’t have to”. I do not think I could listen to these “songs” more then 1 time.

For sure I have to add something Dutch, it something old 1968, one of my older susters boyfriends had this music. Maybe more a “real” blues band

Love all the great blues songs mentioned.
