I always thought he said "live music, let the kids rock" but idk I'm not British lol. This song is great though I've learned to play it but I've only been playing for a month can't do the embellishing and melody like he does so well.
I was lucky enough to see Catfish and The Killers on the same day at a festival in Spain last year. Catfish played at maybe 6pm, Killers at about 11pm... And Brandon brought him on stage to open this song! Absolutely made my night
I was shown this video by a very dear friend who loved the original, but was crazy for this version. Sadly he passed away 5 years ago and this just randomly popped up here again. Amazing how music can bring you back to some of the best and worst moments of your life. Love who you can while you can.
Still can't believe that editor at NME gave their album only a 4/10 and said Van sounded like a drunk Luke Pritchard from The Kooks.. Poor journalism.. so glad they've made it!
and now they're kissing the bands ass featuring them in the magazine m and interviewing the crap out of Van haha finally realized how talented they are
***** Yes, I think they've made up for it by posting an insight article on the band touring Australia and describing how Van wanted to carry on with the show despite his voice being fcked.. It was a nice read.. Circa Waves too.. Heard them on XFM about a year ago and now NME sort of started worshiping them out of a sudden!
Not really.. it's been about 10 years since their debut album.. they couldn't have carried on with the same tempo.. not many bands can, especially in the indie industry.. Kings of Leon maybe, but they're more internationally known.. We'll see.. The debut albums are usually the best but then a lot of artists/bands sort of fade away.
Martin S TBH the fact that rag gave them a poor review only endears me to them, remember when NME said the Enemy were gunna be that band of the decade! haha. This cover is quality!
I've been watching this non stop over the past week. I think he sings with such passion it's uncanny compare to what you normally expect out of live music
Tommy Corsello I have listened to this so much over the last week. I play guitar but feel shadowed by my 'older' brother. this is my inspiration. and oh yeah I fucking love #catfishandthebottlemen I saw them at #communityfestival2017 they were amazing.!!
Lauren D'Souza So lucky! Went to see them live and was planning on hanging around cause they seem to enjoy meeting fans, but my legs hurt and I was so tired from the crazyness in there I just went home xD. They're amazing, don't think I'll be able to find a band that is this amazing.
I HAVE WATCHED THIS SO MANY TIMES I DONT EVEN MIND VAN GETTING THE VERSE WRONG I NEVER FORWARD IT I LISTEN TO IT THE WHOLE WAY THROUGH I LOVE VAN SO MUCH JESUS
I used to knock round with the band in 2011 and used to watch them play infront of 15 people in the local bars/pubs Now this video has 8.7 million views 😂 I remember them sending me demos. Proud of you guys! X
Been working on the chords, this sounds right to me: Capo on 2 Verse G - Em - D - C Chorus C/G - G - D - D (x2) C/G - G - D (1/2 bar) - B7 (1/2 bar) - Em (1/2 bar) - G (1/2 bar) C - C - D - D Ignition G - C - Em - D Throw a few hammer-ons in there and you're set
Jordan Simmonds You can see most of them in the video. In the verse he releases and hammers in to the E string on the G chord, then the D string on the EM, then he hammers on to the high e on the third fret on the D chord, and with the C at first he only plays the a string and hammers on the D on the 2nd fret and B on the first fret then releases the B again. I'm horribly bad at explaining things so i don't know if you'll understand that lol. just mess about with them and some palm muting you should get it.
pretty much all correct except for the last chord in the little 1/2 bar section from the chorus. Should go C/G - G - D (1/2 bar) - B7 (1/2 bar) - Em (1/2 bar) - D (1/2 bar)
God damn... confidence... this guy reminded me why live music will always own my heart. Love the recovery of the verse and its the spirit of performance right there... it what we ALL want bro. What a journey!!!
this is honestly such a great cover, very well sung and played. seriously can not get over it, love love love love it. it doesn't even ruin it that he stuffed up?? van is an amazing musician, as are the rest of the band.
I literally just noticed that and terrible news! I’ve been hearing to it for almost three years on there. I noticed like awhile ago but I thought I had deleted it from my playlist. 😭
i'm not jealous at all, i'm a fucking huge catfish fan. do you play guitar or have any musical talent? i do and i can tell you now he is literally an average player he just plays basic chords
I listen to this at least once a week and the " oh I sang the wrong verse, does anyone mind if I just carry on? Live music , what the kids want? Alright carry on" has just become a favorite part of this song for me 🤣😍😍 please come back to australia so I can see you live!!!

I think I just watched this like 12 times... great voice... great arrangement... great recovery... great attitude... really creative tight guitar skills... I wish i could see this kid play a J-45 for a couple of hours of songs!
British people perform with such passion and professionalism. Their guitar playing is top notch. This guy and the kooks blow me away every time in this format
Honestly, i've been listening to this cover ever since i found out about it and it's still amazing every time i listen to it. Thank you so much for this.
Van is such an amazing musician, he never disappoints. This cover is fantastic, so as the new stuff by Catfish and The Bottlemen. It's really building to see such a young band doing such great things. I want them to come to Poland so badly :ll
Was looking through my old spotify playlists and noticed a greyed-out song. Had to look up what it was because I couldn't remember it by name; then the first chord hit and memories just came flooding back. I'm gonna keep this blank spot in that playlist just for that!
seen Catfish in Toronto the Worn flints opened for them mind blown but then Catfish did a quick show but it was bloody brilliant !!! would love to see them again ~~

having heard the killers largely when I was a kid, naturally hearing their songs take me back. coupled with this dude's cover of it, sends chills down my spine. I feel so happy-sad that im 18 now but not 10 anymore. still stuck in the 2006.
hahah i know exactly how you feel only I was 18 in 2006. The album 'Sam's Town' wasn't greatly appreciated by critics at the time but I never agreed with that sentiment, I found it just as good as Hot Fuss. Anyway, great taste for a 10 year old :)
dudemanismadcool I was 16 in 06, and Sam's Town was probably my favorite album in High School. The playlist was just so flawless and put together so well.
I think this is my favourite like A version and that’s a big call. Just love the casual-ness and groove of this. Don’t know how he got into such a state of flow in such a formal setting but I’m here for it.
through it all I was like holy crap this is so good and then he played ignition and I cried. Van is so FREAKING good . I met him Saturday and I can honestly say he is so humble and awesome GOD DAMMIT VAN YOU STOLE MY HEART
I'm gonna make shit right. Great improv, this is truly one of the best covers I've heard, so good in fact the killers brought him on stage during their concert, which has got to have been awesome for van to get that recognition. WHAT A JOURNEY!!!
I must admit I cringed when I heared his fumble on the radio this morning.... but watching it here it's not so bad. Excellent recovery! Why he ask for permission to carry on? It's almost like he doesn't know that he's owning it and can do whatever the hell he likes :)
It might have been because they don't play these live in the morning, and he was probably seeing if they wanted him to restart for a clean copy. If you ever see a clock, or one of the screens that Alex has they usually seem to record them around 11 oclock, probably the day before.
tskeates you know as an amatuer guitarist that is my biggest nightmare, to stumble or forget where you're at. He did well, it was what the kids wanted :)
this was one of my favorite songs of all time 6 years ago in high school for at least a year and then they took it off spotify- only now rediscovering and o my god it’s as good as ever
+CN R Really? I'm flattered but honestly I'm not entirely sure I can do much for your spirit. I'm fairly unreliable, don't give good advice and I consume more honey than any bear should. Are you still certain you want me as your spirit animal?
Love this guy, great singer, and love how he got the wrong verse yet handled it like a legend, it added authenticity and charm. Plus I think he too has great teeth :)
the reason that van made a mistake was because he originally planned to sing 'are you gonna be my girl' by jet, but triple j said no because no one is interested in jet anymore, so he had to learn this song quickly and he barely knew the lyrics but nonetheless he made this song sound so unique and different to the original, it's so refreshing to listen to. he is a musical genius
"Live music, what the kids want" will forever be iconic
I always thought he said "live music, let the kids rock" but idk I'm not British lol. This song is great though I've learned to play it but I've only been playing for a month can't do the embellishing and melody like he does so well.
haha, it's live music what the kids want just to clarify lol. im English so I can work it out a little easier but his accents still bloody strong haha

*sang the wrong verse, can I carry on? sorry haha just beard this video way too many times

LIVE MUSIC, WHAT THE KIDS WANT!
Yeah he said he sang the wrong second verse 😂
The killers played when you were young twice at lollapalooza lol
I was shown this video by a very dear friend who loved the original, but was crazy for this version. Sadly he passed away 5 years ago and this just randomly popped up here again. Amazing how music can bring you back to some of the best and worst moments of your life. Love who you can while you can.
💯💜
Legend has it that he's still adding songs to that chord progression to this day
hehehehe
YES
Best comment
What’s the name of the second song he sings?
@@jlrolling Ignition by R Kelley. Dudes a creep but that song is a classic.
The way he sings "ya never returned that caaaaallll" blows my mind
Sooo much like the bit in 7 when he goes "but you know I'm never hooooooome"
Jammez YES OH MY GOD MY HEART STOPS EVERY TIME HE DOES THAT WITH HOARSE VOICE
It sends shivers down my spine
3:51-3:58
Luis Adlam oh no you read my mind

I think it's amazing on how he fucks up the 2nd verse but carries in as if it never happened, that is talent
(Verse after 1st chorus)
lol
DannyPGaming mm
Damn i thought that was intentional or some staged shit. Pure talent!
Bentara Alam Gumilang lmfao
“What the kids want?” BEAUTIFUL!
I watch this every single year every month
the "i pull up" lyric was done flawlessly. it's one of my favorite moments in any killers song. when he does it, it overwhelms me with joy.

kathleen hogan catfish , they’re incredible
Catfish and the Bottlemen. Fantastic live. Look for their songs Cocoon, 2All, and Twice.
I've been watching this non stop over the past week. I think he sings with such passion it's uncanny compare to what you normally expect out of live music

Would love to meet Van in person.. He's such a chill dude
i met him and can confirm this! nicest group of guys ever. super humble and down to earth and fantastic live.
Kyle Williams always, always..
Kyle Williams he is incredibly humble and friendly, especially to his fans. So lucky that i met him before they became big over here
Lauren D'Souza So lucky! Went to see them live and was planning on hanging around cause they seem to enjoy meeting fans, but my legs hurt and I was so tired from the crazyness in there I just went home xD. They're amazing, don't think I'll be able to find a band that is this amazing.
Kyle Williams I've met him and he is very chill and easygoing, but also so enthusiastic and outgoing. He's a good lad. Fun to talk to.
The face he makes at the camera after he messes up 😂 he's so cute
I HAVE WATCHED THIS SO MANY TIMES I DONT EVEN MIND VAN GETTING THE VERSE WRONG I NEVER FORWARD IT I LISTEN TO IT THE WHOLE WAY THROUGH I LOVE VAN SO MUCH JESUS
Congratulations. You watched a video in it's entirety.
Well I don't mind, if you don't
dang fan girl muchh. jk. hahaha you're awesome.
In fact I know the words to all the things he says after he messes up also
I love u too jess brake
I used to knock round with the band in 2011 and used to watch them play infront of 15 people in the local bars/pubs
Now this video has 8.7 million views 😂 I remember them sending me demos. Proud of you guys! X
This is so wholesome. I recently brought reading tickets to see them, its nice to know there were genuine people from the very beginning
Been working on the chords, this sounds right to me:
Capo on 2
Verse
G - Em - D - C
Chorus
C/G - G - D - D (x2)
C/G - G - D (1/2 bar) - B7 (1/2 bar) - Em (1/2 bar) - G (1/2 bar)
C - C - D - D
Ignition
G - C - Em - D
Throw a few hammer-ons in there and you're set
Nailed it. Thanks :)
Made a tab for it to show how it fits in with the lyrics:

I'm depressed that this isn't on spotify anymore
I noticed that and that's why I came here! Is the R Kelly thing?
wait WHAT 😭
I literally just noticed that and terrible news! I’ve been hearing to it for almost three years on there. I noticed like awhile ago but I thought I had deleted it from my playlist. 😭
I was beginning to think this was a case of the Mandela effect or something... I could have sworn I had listened to it on Spotify
I just found out today that it wasn’t on Spotify and I am in pain
that ooooh when he was tuning his guitar right at the start im dead
his voice makes me melt everytime
His voice, guitar skills and hair are amazing!!!
Greg Anderson his hair makes him look like Jay from the inbetweeners tbh
***** more like Suck it and See days before the quiff you know
+Harry Mullen guitar skills? he's a very average guitar player mate
+Noire are you being serious? he's amazing - why do you have to bring negativity? stop being so jealous and just be happy for him!
i'm not jealous at all, i'm a fucking huge catfish fan. do you play guitar or have any musical talent? i do and i can tell you now he is literally an average player he just plays basic chords
I love musicians like this. Just having fun, not taking things too seriously, it's what music should be like.
Van is such a legend. He isn't like the rest of the artists who are cocky and don't enjoy themselves unlike van. Best upcoming artist at the moment
I listen to this at least once a week and the " oh I sang the wrong verse, does anyone mind if I just carry on? Live music , what the kids want? Alright carry on" has just become a favorite part of this song for me 🤣😍😍 please come back to australia so I can see you live!!!
I listen to it at least once a week too! Aww... I’m glad you see the same thing that I do.
Awesome cover!!! Totally made it his own and I thought it was absolutely adorable when he messed up in the middle!

having heard the killers largely when I was a kid, naturally hearing their songs take me back. coupled with this dude's cover of it, sends chills down my spine. I feel so happy-sad that im 18 now but not 10 anymore. still stuck in the 2006.

dudemanismadcool I was 16 in 06, and Sam's Town was probably my favorite album in High School. The playlist was just so flawless and put together so well.
I was like 4 and my mum would always have it on and I knew all the words to most of their songs, I was an odd child 😂
18 in 2006 ? You my age then 32 ? Lol
how do you feel now
Please put this back on Spotify!

If you ever see a clock, or one of the screens that Alex has they usually seem to record them around 11 oclock, probably the day before.
Toby Wild that's true, some of the artists probably can't make it there at 7 in the morning so just record it the day before
tskeates you know as an amatuer guitarist that is my biggest nightmare, to stumble or forget where you're at. He did well, it was what the kids wanted :)
tskeates That was kinda call what he did.
today marks two YEARS since i saw catb live and i still love & miss them so much
Oh dear lord, I am in love with his voice, this is such a good cover!!
"live music, what the kids want"
This is gold, pure gold.
Amazing from Mexico you sing Amazing!!!
God this is good. Van seems like the type of guy I'd like to get drunk with.
Sameee! 🎵

Kennedy Cianci You're perfect. Don't fret over awful people.

shame it hasnt really aged well with all the r kelly controversy
Why?? 😂
It makes me cringe now unfortunately because R Kelly is a piece of s***
"I pull up to the front of your driveway
With magic soaking my spine"... Just, wow ❤️
How didn't this get in Triple J's Hottest 100!!?
couldn't vote for it :/
+Adam Wood You could, I voted for it. It made No. 192 out of the top 200.
+long dong silver huh, must've missed it :/ woulda voted for it
+DaltonsDragons I voted for this!!
DaltonsDragons because it smells
Amazing he has a beautiful voice, first time i've listened to them today, it defo won't b my last.x
I love that whenever he does a mash up, he doesn't use the entire song.
Best cover I've ever heard, hands down. CATB are too good.
One of my favorite covers!! Plus that was probably the greatest way I've ever seen someone handle a mistake, gotta love Van.
this was one of my favorite songs of all time 6 years ago in high school for at least a year and then they took it off spotify- only now rediscovering and o my god it’s as good as ever
Great to see nat wolff doing okay after the brothers band ended on Nickelodeon!
xD
I'm dead
Lol
Lmfaoooo. No I can't
this made my day
The way he carries on after making that mistake makes it that much better
It's perfect, The Killers and Catfish and the bottlemen :')
fuckin facts !!!!!
Lovely Mafs Such perfection
Don't forget R. Kelly
Lazy vampire and they were on stage together the other day :')
My favorite cover of all time. I listen to this everyday I love it lol
This could be one of the best covers, ever. So simple.
what is love at the end of video gets me smiling all the time...
why is youtube only counting my views?
Still listening to this in 2021
Just goes to show even some of the best screw up sometimes so people shouldn't feel discouraged when they screw up.
Lucas Holl exactly
so pure so soft
I looked up talent in the dictionary and yeah I really like this guy he's really good.
+Bear Boy you're my spirit animal bear boy.
+CN R Really? I'm flattered but honestly I'm not entirely sure I can do much for your spirit. I'm fairly unreliable, don't give good advice and I consume more honey than any bear should. Are you still certain you want me as your spirit animal?
+Bear Boy it pretty much sounds like me.
+CN R I'm glad, it seems I am a perfect fit. Whenever you need some spirit animal advise, I will respond accordingly.
harder asking the real questions
I was surprise how a clean and beautiful voice he has!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love this guy, great singer, and love how he got the wrong verse yet handled it like a legend, it added authenticity and charm. Plus I think he too has great teeth :)
Seen them live, probs only band worth seeing to reignite a nostalgic dose of 90s feel good sensations
This is brilliant! Excellent cover, excellent band! Can't wait to see them in November, seems ages away though
That was awesome! I guessed that the accent's from Liverpool. Pretty close, Llandudno. Love it.
I just can't get over this song. I actually had never listened to Catfish and the Bottlemen before nd now I'm obssesed
whoever took this off spotify, in 7 days u will begin to cough……
it was on spotify????
I like this cover because it's still true to The Killers' version, but Van still makes it his own. That's a good cover.
Going to see them at madcool in Madrid...so excited!!!
the reason that van made a mistake was because he originally planned to sing 'are you gonna be my girl' by jet, but triple j said no because no one is interested in jet anymore, so he had to learn this song quickly and he barely knew the lyrics but nonetheless he made this song sound so unique and different to the original, it's so refreshing to listen to. he is a musical genius
What a load of shit
Acquiesce1999 Yeah that's a crock of bullshit mate nice try though
I'm interested in Jet... Would've loved to hear that cover.
+Alex Trowell what interview is it?
+Sophie D he's not lying if you guys new about the band before they got big you would know.
