lol. I actually prefer it when she plays with the band. I'm one of those types of fans who love hearing studio editions, live. I mean, i'm all for different styles of songs but I generally believe that Nolita Fairytale by itself without the band, it quite bad sounding. The drums, bass and guitar give it more depth.
I'm actually very suprised to see a double bass there actually but I do suppose that piano bridge is quite in the style of Jazz.
