I have listened to hundreds of covers of this song, but IMO, this one is BY FAR the best. Vocals is absolute next level. Such absolute brilliance. Wow.
Ugh....have you heard cory Taylor live in London? This fantastic don't get me wrong. But cory in my opinion captures the heart break from personal experience due to his age. You can feel the pain in his voice.
@@ian38018a in fact that i never heard anybody talkin about the band itself aside her voice of singing it seems too totally underrate the band as collective.
It doesn’t matter how long I know London Grammar how often I listened to it… Her voice is that of an angel. It just stops me in my tracks, makes my head empty and my eyes tear up and for the duration of the song there is beauty, calm and peace… gorgeous!
I remember when Chris Isaak first released "Wicked Game", how I was nailed to the floor by the haunting sound that made me immediately think of the late Roy Orbison. This performance is powerful as the vocal richness and perfectly accompanied guitar had me floating and should make Chris' smile as well.
Baelor Chris Isaak and about a milion other performers and bands did it as well. HIM's version is pretty famous one. You should check it out, it definitely IS a cover.
IKR? When she started singing I jumped in my seat! I usually focus in on the guitar (being a half-assed, talentless hack with the six strings) but not this time because this young lady can SANG!
This is godlike. Everything on this one is just perfect. I love how sensitive the guitar guy plays it. And then perfect piano, perfect voice. Absolutely incredible performance!
If you want godlike then this isn’t even close. Listen to Diana Ankudinova (15 years old) singing Wicked Game ua-cam.com/video/7jv-DQnf2UY/v-deo.html and then for the deepest female voice that you will ever hear in your life ua-cam.com/video/-KgD666fRtY/v-deo.html and finally to blow your mind ua-cam.com/video/-KgD666fRtY/v-deo.html
When I clicked on this I thought it would be another so-so cover of this song like all the other ones. Little did I know I was clicking on one of the best things I've ever heard.
Its when she goes up an octave that makes my hair stand on end .. What a wicked way to sing reaches me deep within What a cover of that song I cant help but sing along
@@kulio1214 Lol that's just rude... Let the man rhyme, Jim! Dude, seriously, dude... Try and make your own hymn It ain't simple But y'all gotta try Better make your first rhyme Before your first wrinkle
I really love this cover. Probably listened to their recorded version of it 50 times. I love the vocals, the guitar, it’s all so nice. They made it their own but didn’t junk it up. Just clean thoughtful beautiful
She sings as if she's swimming in the music and the melody. I don't know why but the world "elegance" popped in my mind the first time I heard her sing. I also love how subtle and subdued the guitar and keyboard are, as if to make her voice resonate even more. Fantastic cover from London Grammar!
I'm listening all songs played by london grammar on repeat, beautiful sound with so much depth and richnes in the sound. thanks for making this beautiful cover. I love the sound of this band !
This is one of my all-time favorite songs and Chris Isaak sings it so beautifully, though Hannah's is my favorite cover. There is something about her voice that resonates with my soul and I wish this went so much longer.
What a magical voice she as Hanna Reid has, one of my favourite singers out there to this day , there isn’t many singing vocals can match her vocals for me ❤
Picker alert - The David Gilmore guitars, including the Black Strat used on classics like Dark Side of the Moon, is going up for auction at Christies in NYC. Also Strat 0001. IF you happen to be this good and making millions of pounds!
Paul Bosse right!! I don't know about you, but I didn't think that the Sun's general demographic would be into this... I mean for starters, she's not wearing pink, topless, or in the kitchen. Oooooohhhhhhhhh 🔥🔥🔥
so amazingly beautiful !!!!! I love this Chris Isaak song and she is performing it like an angel - thank you so much that you are sharing your talent with us.
One of my favorite songs of all time. This is hands down the best cover I've ever heard of it. It's actually the only cover that's truly doing justice for this incredible song.
Finally someone not singing in that idiotic indie voice style that everybody seems to do nowadays. This is simply amazing and genuine! Best I have heard in years!
@@thomaswarren2699 Put this in your search box in google “www.google.com/search?q=indie+voice+tik+tok&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en-us&client=safari” and listen to the first 3 or 4 hits. One is tiktok, the rest are on UA-cam. You’ll know exactly what this means.
One of those golden songs that indefiably make you stop whatever you're doing... and this one proceeds to send you to that one place deep within your soul, where loss and sadness mix with a quiet blessing of thankfulness, thankfulness that whatever it was that made you feel this way, happened at all.
All I can say is Wow. This has long been one of my favorite songs and this rendition is chilling, wrenching, intoxicating. Hannah Reid has one of the most captivating voices of anyone I've ever heard... her deep lush lows and angelic heart piercing high notes are unlike any other artist. I love the whole band... Dot Major and Dan Rothman are incredible and humble musicians who create such minimal yet deep music in which Hannah's almost haunting voice can soar.
I love her voice, I must admit when I first saw London Grammar ‘s Hannah Reid I was blown away by her vocals & range! I was not expecting that voice and the incredible effortless control she has with it, not to mention her very natural appearance & sweet personality was so refreshing. I’m tired of hearing about so called “true divas” when I hear someone like Hannah that to me is incredible, what a treat! I have to admit I also enjoy Daisy Gray’s cover too. I have been enjoying a lot of covers lately more than some of the originals !
HIM is one of my favorite bands of all time. Ville Valos vocals stun me every time, but if this girl and Valo went together on this I think I’d faint. If you haven’t heard the HIM cover your missing out. This is awesome
A brilliant gem!!! Her voice is an enchantment, powerful and sweet, moving to tears, something unearthly!!! I could listen to her all day! All's accompanied by a great melody making this cover something divine, a masterpiece!!!
This is the first song I played in my first car. I used to drive on highways listening to this song. so i have a very emotional connection with this song. didn't know the song name until now. like this comment when you see it so it will remind me to come here and listen to it again and enjoy my memories.
In 2024 I'm still returning to listen to this. It's haunting isn't it.
Just came here after listening to Chris Issac version. Both brilliant.
Check out HIM and Tenacious D too 😊🙏🏼
Me too !
its literally the worst caver
@@vitus6644 best cover
I have listened to hundreds of covers of this song, but IMO, this one is BY FAR the best. Vocals is absolute next level. Such absolute brilliance. Wow.
Oh yes London Grammar … really underrated
The Ursine Vulpine cover of this is also amazing. Different, but still spine-tingling
Its a beautiful version
It's brilliant and emotional and almost perfect. The only negative thing is having "The Sun" logo in the top right!
Ugh....have you heard cory Taylor live in London? This fantastic don't get me wrong. But cory in my opinion captures the heart break from personal experience due to his age. You can feel the pain in his voice.
Her voice is like diving into a cool, crystal clear lake on a hot sunny day. Beautiful X
So is her face
Best исполнение!

2:20 just magic...
What takes you to that point , what is that point , what a wicked thing to do .
Same here buddy
Decent
One of the best female voices, I' ve ever heard. Absolutly great!
More to do with the song than her voice
@@terrytownsend5583 have you heard their other songs though? Her voice is absolutely amazing.
also one of the best songs of all time.. what a combo!
probably just cus its masculine bro
She sounds a little bit like Nico on Velvet Underground. I agree, she's captivating.
My god that voice. I literally went cold and my arms and legs got goose pimples. Awesome version. Fantastic.
Chris Isaak made one of the best songs to exist.
ARC 👌
Fantastic absolutely fantastic !!!!
Cris isaac to me was a true peoples natural singer excellent very enjoyable
Indeed 👀
Seriously? That's a super gay song.
This is honestly THE BEST cover I’ve ever heard of this song. I always come back to it.

Her voice is stunning and perfect for this song.
Gets you in the feels everytime. Hannah's voice is hands down THE best. Goosebumps
London Grammar really have their own sound. Her voice is hauntingly beautiful. Such a fantastic band.
Parts of them are Jewish.

This performance is powerful as the vocal richness and perfectly accompanied guitar had me floating and should make Chris' smile as well.
you know i've never thought about it, but i totally get the Orbison sound.
Chris Isaak has recorded Roy Orbison songs as he is a fan of the great man, and his voice is very close to the magic that Orbison achieved.

For 6 years, the guitar has me coming back again and again. Then you hear her voice❤️❤️❤️ all of it is amazong
She’s perfect in low and high notes. She’s one of the greatest singer nowadays
Bright future ahead of her for sure, that woman can sing 👌
@@gowlaz by "bright future",you mean ruined by the producers with autotune and forced sexappeal?I wish no bright future for her.
This!!!! She’s the best.
Search Haley Reinhart if you want to see a truly world-class female vocalist.
She and Florence Welsh
Her talking voice is so soft.. her singing voice is so powerful, and both are so smooth
Utterly brilliant and proper band. Hannah’s vocal range defies gravity. Beautiful. Thank you London Grammar
I honesly think Hannah has one of the most beautiful voices ever. Could easily get lost listening to her sing.
Incredibly well done cover. The singer's voice is stunning.
it's not a cover
Chris Isaak originally did the song.
ah sry I did not know that
Baelor Chris Isaak and about a milion other performers and bands did it as well. HIM's version is pretty famous one. You should check it out, it definitely IS a cover.

I'd love to hear her sing Bruce Springsteen - I'm on fire.
she's amazing!
Good call! I second that!
quality comment.
sure i agree
+A girl is no one - Bruce Springsteen's song I'm on fire is sooo simple but beautiful - one of my favs
A girl is no one check out the staves they do an I'm on fire cover and it's great
This is godlike. Everything on this one is just perfect. I love how sensitive the guitar guy plays it. And then perfect piano, perfect voice. Absolutely incredible performance!

whilst not necessarily paying attention to her bone structure, incredible
I like that one too ! :)

This song has so many great covers. This version and Parra for Cuva’s are my favorites. Such an amazing song thanks to Chris Issac.
#sensational
What a Voice, so beautiful and melancholic, love the way she used her emotions to underline the singing!
The guitar was from another planet and her voice from a higher dimension
No jumping around, no histrionics…….just superb musicianship coupled with a sublime voice. Beautiful.
An absolute staple for any lover of music.
This band is just gorgeous, melodic and ethereal.
Hope to see them live one day
Check Beach House, if you dont know them yet =)
They are brilliant live
This lady has a beautiful voice, great cover, very clear lyrics, love London Grammar ❤️thank you

The Ursine Vulpine version with Annaca is pretty smoking as well.
Couldn't agree more.
I adore how they make their guitars weep, so deep.
Nobody, loves no one.

This needs released on Spotify.
So good to listen to this again. Brings back old memories. Some people leave long lasting impressions in our lives. Fighting old feelings.
love her voice, powerful but soothing, gives me the chills and to embrace it with the talent the lads have. nailed it
Absolutely mind blowing.. Her voice is heavenly.. I will never stop listening to London Grammer ♥
i love hearing females with deep voices
I always wondered if the xx would do a cover of this song ...but this is way better. Her voice is so beautiful
Marie France No actually Xx would kill this song more brilliantly also will Arctic Monkeys😍
Yes! The xx would be amazing singing this!
They are similar genre
3-18-2023 and I still find myself coming back to this video.. Her voice speaks to your soul.
Wow, I remember the original by Chris Isaac, but this sent me into a trance, beautifuly sung and musicians were excellent. loved it.

@Christopher Lee yes Chris, just listened to that, good choice very atmospheric it fits well
She is wonderful. That voice and she is so beautiful!

it's a recital, love. and it's fab. cover ? animals, that there trad arr/(dylan) song.
chris Isaac sounds shit compared to london grammer
Listen the version of "HIM" (band)
Waiting Around to Die by The Be Good Tanyas is an exceptional cover of Townes Van Zandt original. I think it’s a better cover of a song than this
I am 76 W and I agree with you , such feeling .. A
This artist does this song so well; she definitively adds her own emotions to the mix. Thanks for sharing this song. Appreciated.
the pianoist guy got the look of guitar player and the guy how play guitar got the look of a piano man.. :)

A lot of people are relying on voice synth to make their voice sound better, she just "has" it natural.
