Love to see my tax dollars went towards brining this legend back to the public
I wish this was on Spotify 😢
x2
This video proves that Conor Mason not only has the best voice in rock music, he's got the best stage moves.
conor is one of the best rock vocalists of his age, absolutely stunning
I'm sorry but how is this not on triple js spotify. Blows my mind.
Yay! The video is back up. The audio alone is great but the video just brings it up to the next level. This is hands down one of the greatest performances online
You know it's gonna get good when Conor gets on his tiptoes to sing
I love that comment!
And i thought telepathy was a hoax
Not many front men in music these days without a G-tar in their mits. So when you see this kid let it out through the bridge... Best! Best thing! Beeeeest thing ever!!
@@24Gagey I prefer a keytar anytoot.
Need this on Spotify plzzzzz
Man... when you hear something you didnt know you really needed.
betruet exactly bra! ! !
Took the words right out of my mouth
Haha! Spot on mate!! :)
well said
bUT YOU do
When the cover of a song you don’t know is so good you have to listen to the original. NBT really made this song theirs. It’s got that build I love them for.
I knew the original before this came out and I love it but when this came out I was shook both are amazing imo
Triple J - i need this like i need oxygen. 🔥🔥🔥 Always and permanently. Please find a way to keep it online, preferably with video. Voting for this in the LAV poll - nothing else comes close.
I wish it was on Spotify
Yeah why did it disappear 😢
Bro idk if you've heard of "I Need Air" but it's another NBT song only on yt and your comment reminded me of it. Go check it out!
It's been a while since I heard I Need Air. Thanks for the reminder. Might give it a listen tonight @@mcbubbles6714
The passion that escapes from Connor and into those moves in the middle, is exactly what NBT does to me.
every song, every time.
Love it that his hat says Brighter Days (atleast that’s what I see) and his shirt says DEAD. That’s the spirit.
With a mullet and talent like that what more could you want.
a bigger mullet
Justin McDermott you got me there.
I have not heard a more Australian comment. I'm in complete agreeance with you!
Yeah moi boi.
@@joostin123 😂
My #1 vote for LAV 💯
Not even a question
🤘
Damn straight! ❤
yep same! people are sleeping on this cover
Same
Last Saturday was my wedding, this was our first dance, we practiced a dance to it for months with an instructor, it was perfect, made more perfect by my best mate showing a video during his speech to us of Conor giving a shout out to my bride and I after bumping into him at a pub in London. I live in South Africa btw. This band and this song is just absolute perfection
❤🇿🇦🎧🎼
Amazing!!! How lovely of Conor and what a great best mate you have 🤯
this is my favorite video on the internet.
Thank you SOOOOOO MUCH for putting this back up!!!!
I am fckn glad this is back on UA-cam
Missed watching this so much, glad to see it's back, wanted to see this played live at Grooving the Moo.😁
Oh my god.. His voice is insanely good.. Literally got goosebumps
My god this is good. So much emotion in his voice and his moves. These guys are something special. I'm late to their music but am making up lost time and it's been thee best time!
Omg ... after several years, still give me goosebumps
Geez. Just discovered this today. Insanely good. Wow.
Gooodd I love it when Nothing But Thieves does the Nothing But Thieves thing, ya feel?
slumbers i do... i really do
O yep
i love how Conor express his feeling while singing
I’ve never felt so much for a band, not until Nothing But Thieves. Feels like my heart’s breaking and soaring at the same time. God, I love them so much
You just described exactly how they make me feel when I listen to them too
I love Conor's voice so much. So much emotion and never get tired of hearing it. We need more like this. So Raw! I feel like he sings to me!
I just can’t get over how good these guys are. Please save me.
this needs to be on spotify asap. they killed it
every god damn time this masterpiece still gives me goosebumps
Sweet lawd! That’s how you cover a song! Brilliant job
I keep on coming back to this performance. It really touches my soul in a way I can’t explain. I hope one day this is available on a streaming platform or something because it’s just so so good.
Sometimes a band sounds good only in studio, but I just saw them in Amsterdam and Connors voice was *incredible*. (But I already knew that from this video ❤)
Those vocals hit you like a ton of bricks honestly
I didn't know I'm able to fall in love with this band more, but here I am. This made me literally cry. You can feel in their performance that it's 100% them.
Oh yes, I know that feeling!
A year has passed and I’m still coming back to listen to this cover. Makes me feel a lot of emotions
this band keeps topping themselves every single time how is it possible
i’m: thankful
How a cover should be done. 👏🏼👏🏼 Another song on the shortlist for Hottest 100. Legends 🤙🏼
Holy shit the drummer killed that
I love how he seems like he's really feeling the music!
The passion and intensity the frontman goes through. This song just builds and climaxes perfectly
My favorite band playing my favorite song by my next favorite band...could this day get any better?
Straight to the Hottest 100 shortlist for this bad boy. So good!
This is out of this world
Finally a like a version where everybodies comments are positive
steve york how couldn’t they be positive?
4.2k likes v 16 dislikes and #5 on trending. You can't get much better than that!
Have u not heard dmas cover Cher?
nothing but thieves, and English rocks tends to be of a high enough standard to impress the majority of listeners.
Holy shit! The energy in this performance is incredible. *Shivers down my spine*
Conor's dance moves are so great too i love these guys sm 😂❤️❤️
He sings to my soul!!
So so so stunning. The song sounds like something they would actually have on one of their albums. Looked up the original and it's great as well, though I really appreciate the way this version starts gently with the piano. Such a nice surprise, always glad to hear anything new from them!
Greatest. Cover. Ever. Simple as that
Yep. Second best and very close to this is Kasey Chambers covering Eminem's Lose Yourself. If you haven't seen that one, check it out. Breath-taking
Never heard of this band. Never heard of this song. But damn. Talk about talent. I'm amazed.
This is the sound of a soul in tune
To a savage desire for a soul made new
It's a savage desire for a soul untamed
A definitive cry in the present age
Do I throw my clothes in the fire? Do I throw my hopes in the fire?
Do those things grow in the fire
Or burn just to keep me complying?
Can you still show me the way? Can you still show me a light?
'Cause I was only a kid when I fell and you tossed me aside, hey
What can I do if the fire goes out?
'Cause I don't know if I can live without
I wanna taste and see if the Lord is good
I wanna know if I'm heard and if I'm understood
See the savage desire is some stupid thing
Or if having desire is summoned deep within
Do I throw my clothes in the fire? Do I throw my hopes in the fire?
Do those things grow in the fire
Or burn just to keep me alive?
Can you still show me the way? Can you still show me a light?
'Cause I was only a kid when I fell and you tossed me aside, oh
What can I do if the fire goes out?
'Cause I don't know if I can live without
Lina thank you for commenting the entire lyrics you ducking simp
Thank you!
I can’t believe how amazing this is. They are so talented.
There's a difference between finding a song you love and falling in love with the song. the latter cannot be explained nor expressed into words, and that's exactly how I feel about this song.
This was made for Conor. Vary rare I have a band on repeat, and in particular this track.
Fantastic Cover. 👏👏👏👏
oh wow, this vocalist is a treasure
If I was in that band I'd be constantly worried that my string strumming and drum bashing was good enough to do justice to old mates vocals. Amazing vocal cords yo.
How many times can I listen to this in a row before having to declare I have a serious addiction.
Typical Thieves, stealing my feels.
Perfect comment.
D!ck, this song GIVES you the feels, it doesn't TAKE them. Stop trying too hard
@@gilbag nothing but thieves.. Band name/pun. Sheesh
Another genius. I get what he was TRYING to do but he got it backwards. A great song GIVES you the feels, it doesn't leave you emotionless. Don't congratulate people for getting shit wrong, that's how we ended up with a President Trump.
@@gilbag see now who's trying too hard? Relax mate.
you can feel the song
God damn I thought their original was brilliant but this took it to another level. Just wow
I could listen to Connor sing allllll dayyyy ❤❤❤❤❤❤
One of the best like a versions.
Art
Jesus, goosebumps.
OMG... I AM SO OLD AND ABSOLUTELY IN LOVE WITH THIS BAND!! GREAT SONG, GREAT VOCALS....I LOVE THIS TIGHT BAND!!
jean morris in introduced this band to my mom when i found em and their both of our favorite bands, and my mom picked her god as Jeff Buckley and never thouggt anything could reach that level, until i showed her this band! Seen em once in concert in gonna see em again in a few weeks
you sound like a 40 yr mother
Am 63, and saw them twice in about 7 months. I have to drive for 6 hours (one way) to do that, so that'll give an indication of how much I'm a fan. Love their beautiful noise so much that I even bought/downloaded their last album while travelling in China!
Me too! Just discovered them. First music I’ve heard in a long time that’s moved me.
i am so so happy that this song back online!! this is the best version of this song ever!!!
Conor's voice is too much. In love💖💘💖💘💖💘💖💘💖
I don’t say this lightly but Conor Mason is currently the best male singer in the world. I cannot find anyone that comes even close to him.
Matthew Bellamy from Muse comes close, but falls short. Conor is the best
I was about to say either Matt Bellamy of Muse or Brendon Urie (P!ATD) but another person's reply beat me to it. Haha!
Myles Kennedy is pretty amazing but yeah im conor all the way
Deaf Havana's James is something special
And the lead singer from highly suspect
This is the cover I didn't know I needed.
Such incredible vocals over an already great song.
holy shnit this guys vocals have me shook
Amelia Jewell if you havnt, do yourself a favor and check out their music! They vary alot, from rock to ballads, Conor is very Jeff Buckley inspired in his vocals
I thought they had a female lead singer!
I was confused too.....I had to read the comments....love the vocals though
If you want a good example of Conor's voice, watch this: ua-cam.com/video/RqfeNCxgf3U/v-deo.html
They are amazing 🙌
Good luck to the rest of the bands doing lav this year, you just won't beat that! I want to give a like for the performance and another for that musky mullet! Peace
update: he's cut it!
Love that musky mullet!!
Ohhh that voice!!♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
ASAP rocky was a gem also
Gang of youths
I keep coming back to this video...... absolutely amazing! Connor's voice is incredible!
Seeing this is back has made my day! I can't wait to see my sons reaction 😊
Come back to this all too often! Is there anyone else caught in it's spell like me? Just thing this is the best like a version just cause of the gravity of that performance and perfect rendition of an already supernatural song.
Yep. I'm back once again- 2 weeks. Already heard this cover on Triple J this week. So thats at least one every week.
omg when the drums come in
These guys never fail to amaze me. Can't wait for what the future holds for them.
5 years on and they're doing pretty good 🔥
Conor's voice is truly something else. Hard to express how talented he is, just jaw dropping.
YASSSS!! ANOTHER GANG OF YOUTHS SONG THAT HAS BEEN COVERED AND ITS AMAZING!!!
Dudes voice is bloody epic. Chills. So good.
I can’t stop playing this. I can’t wait to see them in September
damn this is incredible I can’t stop replaying. Love his voice
Conor your voice is haunting. Best like a version. Goose bumps
What an amazing natural born talent oh my Lordy
Maddie Rossetto Years upon years of tireless practicing isn’t natural - Saying someone is a natural born talent kinda undermines the ridiculous amount of time and effort spent jamming, practicing techniques, learning the technical aspects and gigging.
***I dont mean this in an angry or “hey screw you” kinda way, just more like “god I hate when people say this”***
WALKEN settle down cobba... never said he didn’t work hard....
"**I dont mean this in an angry or “hey screw you” kinda way, just more like “god I hate when people say this”**"
That escalated.
This is the best voice in music right now and most people are sleepin on em
Y'all ever wonder about how many songs you're missing out on hearing in Conor’s voice that he just sings in the shower or the car or whatever. It's not fair that the whole world doesn't get to hear every single song he sings 😡😭😭
😂😂😂
I literally think about that too!!! 😂😭
Why is this not on Spotify?? :(
Dang - the falsetto to heavy drop was excellent! Nice!
Best like a version I have ever seen. These guys are spectacular
Always puts so much passion into their covers
His voice at 1:01 knocked me out.
The chorus sounds very similar to:
“What we do when the power’s out
What do we do when the lights go down” :)
Have no words for this band. Have no words for this voice. Have no words for this song. Just WOW!
*Saw them live twice. They're beyond of this reality.
Quite simply the best cover of any track I've ever heard, ever..period!
Hope it makes it into the Hottest 100 of the decade 🤝
I voted for it!
You can't keep a good thing down. Don't try to slay this beast. It will always have a life of its own.
So this is the unlimited power of the mullet
Man! This is the sound of a soul in tune.
Speachless, love you guys, can't get enough of this performance
I mean I already love the original, but THIS - holy moly!! Chilllllzz...
So many feelings I can't even sort them out. Killing me everyday these boys. You blow my mind Conor. Love isn't a strong enough word. More please.
Voted for this in jjj hottest 100
