    It's incredible how foreshadowing these lyrics were for Britney.
    And this rendition is just *[chef's kiss]*

    I appreciate that Jeffrey really got into the spirit of it, dancing like a crooner of the time would, and the ladies' little gestures (especially the last ones at the end). It really gives that finishing touch and nicely completes the vibe that the song style starts, and the set and costume design continues.

      So, seeing as you were a high schooler from this time period, would this version of the song/performance raise concerns or be "off" if this was played in your - say - school dances/proms?

      @@AsianShadowrunner Not in the least, That Guy! Not even from my Prom Date…Mozart! 😉😄 Seriously, we were a very small, close-knit , rural high school, and community. Any thought given to the lyrics, or this version of ‘Lucky’, would probably have been considered as just ‘a sad, but danceable ballad’! Great times…sweet memories! 👍

    Well done everyone!
    This has that classic PMJ feel to it that reminds me of the first year or so of your music on YT. Solid arrangements, great vocals and performances by everyone.

      To me, this has the same vibe as the last song Jeffrey James did with PMJ, only that one was more upbeat. It's gotta be over EIGHT years now, I even think Allan was still drumming here. Damn, I miss Allan & Chip.

    Yet another PMJ proof that a clever re-imagining just transforms a song in amazing ways. Lead singer sells this so hard (bravo, sir) and as always 'twould not be possible without the talented everyone freaking else involved. This is why you guys rule, PMJ, this is what I'm here for!
