He truly embodies the essence of his song now. When he first performed it in the original video, he seemed like someone fresh out of a breakup, filled with raw emotion. Now, he appears more composed and mature, delivering the song the way it was meant to be experienced. You can even see how his face lights up with newfound confidence. Fame was never his goal-he’s passionate about the music itself, not the spotlight. There are only a few artists like him, ones who are purely about the art.
Holy moley, I came for Gotye but left a Monty Cotton fan! As soon as he starting singing I was floored! What a talent! Fantastic show all around, every second was brilliant. And they all seem like such good people, just sharing their genuine and sincere love of music.
@@The3Basics it’s a really fantastic ensemble, you guys play with a lot of heart so I’m certain it’ll be outstanding. I’m just discovering your back catalog now!
He saved the best for last. He almost didn't give it to the audience. It felt special that he allowed everyone to listen to him sing it after so long. Like a little extra treat.
stewie wei it will be out soon but remember he also just had a child with his partner/girlfriend a few months ago. But he is working hard to finish it up
This guy, he's a genius. Dude has several great songs (all CRIMINALY underrated btw) and is about to make a 4th album, trying to make his own way back...and people still ONLY TALK ABOUT SOMEBODY THAT I USED TO KNOW AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
24:32 Is the most adorable way of showing someone how to play a song correctly that I've ever seen. Also, how voice, wow Edit: 5 years later I noticed I wrote "how" instead of "his"!

Wally has so much good music under his repertoire, he didn't want to have massive fame though which is why he vanished from the industry. But he's never stopped making music, his stuff is such a hidden gem of the music world.
@The3Basics I'm so impressed, you all were terrific! Will scope out your music and Monty Cotton's in the morning. I'm in the US or I'd be at any shows you might perform. Thanks so much for making me smile!
Everybody. Take a moment to appreciate the songs and vocals. Appreciate all three of these talented men. Yes, Gotye is quite wonderful, but don’t bombard the comment sections with complaints. Anyone who is a real fan would’ve kept up with him, as well as his fine work with Tim and Kris.
The only problem with this video is there's not more of it. I would love to see the full video. Wally De Backer has an infectious smile and what an amazing blend of talent here. The host has such a great personality too.
hearts a mess is the best song ever created... so glad to hear wally has got some knew stuff on the way. meanwhile anyone know some kinda similar music
Its not exactly like Gotye but something that reminds me of him is an artist named Adam Tell. He's super underrated but his music and vocals are just absolute top tier
Love this session of just sitting around, surrounded about good energy, these guys are such good musicians, you're all making it fun for us to watch and listen to and it's nice to see another musical side to you and Basics and this Monte Cotton is just wonderful, these are often the best times to sit around and jam acoustically in front of an intimate audience, wonderful! ETerriL,Leckner Montreal
Just discovered this type of music! All I can say is WOW! Very very talented!!! Would love to hear more!! Any suggestions would be appreciated! Gotye and the rest of the guys are amazing talented individuals!!!!
Wow Monte Cotton, Gotye, the wonderful Basics, great harmonies, great musicians, i used to love Split Enz, interesting choice of music, Good version of Addcted to love, you all keep in your own style, I enjoyed it immensely, love it all, keep folking and rocking! Terri Leckner, Montreal
Wow 😮 this performance I am sorry to say it but it’s bloody amazing there you go. I said it.. Goyte aka Wally 🥰 I’m happy to see you’re enjoying music still after watching a few previous interviews. I was worried you’re gonna give up. It’s so good to see you. I just wish I could see you in real life.
I'm just so happy to have you in my livingroom , i look forward so much to your new album, i call it album, so 70's, you've got the quality of a real musician, love this informal acoustic concert, have fun and take your time with the new songs, you're so talented, in that you play a multitude of instruments and have a voice which sounds trained, so engaging, deep, love the Basics too, i wish you all the best on your musical voyage, you have a great following, we've missed you, i know i have, Terri Leckner, Montreal
To "The Basics": The world deserves to know them. I did my part and introduced you to my teenage children. ☺️ To Wally: What an amazing artist you are! Her voice is sweet and impactful at the same time. His compositions touch the soul. ❤️

Gotye is so underrated. What a voice..
a wild gotye has appeared
Lovely rendition of the Kate Bush song!
"Somebody That I Used To Know" such a masterpiece
I love it too!
The kimbra part make me smile
too bad that's the only song people know about Gotye while, essentially, the guy's a fucking Mozart of our times
Gracias
he and the song give me chills every time
13:32 guy shaking his head in disbelief because its so good
Addicted to love cover by The Basics is now my new religion
What a gig !! Every of these musicians are brilliant !
If Gotye put this version out I'd buy it in a heartbeat. The guitars are brilliant.
You can find this version on Spotify, Apple, Amazon etc… you can also buy from our Bandcamp thebasics.bandcamp.com … cheers
Just bounced back to this again and wish i could 'like' it so many more times...
All Four of you are GOLD. Pure gold
Holy moley, I came for Gotye but left a Monty Cotton fan! As soon as he starting singing I was floored! What a talent! Fantastic show all around, every second was brilliant. And they all seem like such good people, just sharing their genuine and sincere love of music.
We’re working on studio recordings of those songs with him now, so stay tuned.
@@The3Basics it’s a really fantastic ensemble, you guys play with a lot of heart so I’m certain it’ll be outstanding. I’m just discovering your back catalog now!
@@The3Basics I am eagerly waiting
Yeah he's a find. Awesome jam, all round.
Glad to see Gotye
Man, I missed gotye, seeing him after 9 years makes me happy
his voice omgggg it got more mature i love it
I cant believe how freaking good this version of Army Dreamers is god have mercy
Agree !!!!!
totally agree
same i cant stop listening to this version, j'adore kate bush .
GUYS I FOUND, GOTYE
😂
@@The3Basics WHERE DID YOU GO MAN? IVE JUST BEEN PATIENTLY SITTING HERE SINCE 2012. EVEN TAME IMPALA DIDN'T DO ME THIS DIRTY
@@geekychick131 HES WORSE THAN TOOL WITH THIS STUNT!
Nah I hunk he’s just somebody that we used to know :2
@Drew Rosenthal lmao. Now he's just somebody that we used to know.
It just doesn't get much better than this!
Love Wally de Backer's live vocals, so I am here to listen. Admirable range. The rhythm, yum. Great harmonies. My soul is feeling full.
Omg he got his password recovered
yeah, to living, he was stuck in pregame lobby
@@galahi perfect reply!
Couldn’t put it better xD
😂
he clicked the "forgot your password?" button
Can we just talk about the FUN they have with "Addicted to love" ? You can see they really enjoy playing together!
He saved the best for last. He almost didn't give it to the audience. It felt special that he allowed everyone to listen to him sing it after so long. Like a little extra treat.
That might be the best performance of Somebody that I've seen.
Wait, Wally is working on a fourth album? I’m so happy right now!
stewie wei it will be out soon but remember he also just had a child with his partner/girlfriend a few months ago. But he is working hard to finish it up
Stewart Weigand in which part does he says it?
@@dragonballteoriasymas6791 1:36
¿Wait what? In which part of the video wally says that :0
@@jinilee07 thanks XD
Great gathering of talented young men with a collective class/ musical output.

i thougt the same
A friend showed me Like Drawing Blood back in 2006 and that album is still amazing and better than Making Mirrors.
Hi, I am writing an article about Gotye and what fans think about his modern pursuits. Would you mind if I interviewed you for it?
I like his other music but somebody that I used to know was my introduction to his music and it holds a special place in my heart
@@yellow_flash813 It's also just a damn banger for a reason.
24:32 Is the most adorable way of showing someone how to play a song correctly that I've ever seen.
Also, how voice, wow
Edit: 5 years later I noticed I wrote "how" instead of "his"!
"he's working on a fourth" the best thing i've heard in 2020
5 years later im still waiting x_x☠💀
"Somebody that I used to know", wauw goosbumps all over. Great performance from everyone!

All of them are amazing musicians and seem to be people with a great heart too. I couldn't choose my favourite voice out of the 4 of them hahahah
Of course he’s a “D” 😂😂
hearts a mess is the best song ever created... so glad to hear wally has got some knew stuff on the way. meanwhile anyone know some kinda similar music
Japper45 i completely agree
Japper45 the police/sting honestly feels like the same realm as him
Sting sounds really similar
Its not exactly like Gotye but something that reminds me of him is an artist named Adam Tell. He's super underrated but his music and vocals are just absolute top tier
What an amazing talent all of these musicians are!! So unique and different to each other but able to perform such incredible music!!

So glad to listen again "Gotye" & Combo, WOW :heart:
Nothing basic about what was happening in that room, just amazing....! Voices melting together, and a beautiful fusion of blissful sounds.
ok so I've been waiting for the whole "Hearts a mess" and... this is the same preview clip from 3 months ago... I'm so sad rn
I love this video,you are my champions🥰🥰🥰👍👍👍
I found GOTYE here on the BASICS.. I'M WAITING FOR NEXT DROP.
loving this soundboard clear recording
I have been looking for gotey,thanks heavens I found him😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
A bit of Nirvana Live in New York feel, stunning performance.
RECORDING A 4TH ALBUM?! HOL UP
He finally learned how to open the door to the street in his house. I am proud of him.
Damn, even halfway 2021 it's still such a good song, Somebody that I used to know. Read somewhere there might be a new album, fingers crossed
Now he’s honestly somebody that we used to know
This is fantastic !!!!
So talented people!!! Very nice! Thank God I have ears and can hear it and admire it! Thank you!!! 💋 💋 💋
After 8 years His voice get darker I prefer his voice 8 years ago tbh but I still love his voice now get sexier

25 : 18
Uurrgghh eargasm
scarlet witch forever he still sounds incredibly similar to when making mirrors was released. :)
scarlet witch forever 25:02 25:18
I prefer his voice 17 years ago
His voice aged like fine wine 👌
I like his voice now tbh, the rasp of his more matured voice brings more depth of the song
"Somebody that I used to know", my favorite song ever. super star
