I actually applaud charlie... He did the reverse of selling out when he left busted and that is a hard thing to do because many people sell out from rock to do pop but charlie did the reverse so well done good sir :)
@@thehewguy But good Pop is ok and Busted sound so much better as a commercial band nowadays then the other shite currently floating around in the charts.
@@adamknight7041 So... Fightstar _aren't_ commercial? They just gave away all their merchandise and all the tickets to their concerts for free? That's something people never realise, which is that EVERY band that sells to people is commercial, not just that of a popular sound that you don't like.
My city is experiencing heavy rain and flooding in a number of suburbs. Toowoomba, a nearby town has been all but washed away. This is my song for the flooding.
lets hope busted never reappear, and in that way music will become a little better for all of us long live his love for real music, and weep away busted loving teens
If anyone's craving stuff done by other people in Fightstar, two of the members have a post-punk/synthwave side-project called Gunship that you should totally check out
when I was young, I used to listen to Busted. now I don't like it, but one day I searched in wikipedia something about them, and I saw that the singer had another group. I came here expecting a teenager group, but I'm absolutly surprised of this. Love it!
Dunno what all the hate from McBusted fans is all about. If this is what Charlie wants to do, let him! This isn't the sort of music id listen to normally but it suits his voice so much better, and it's not actually that bad.
Busted shouldn't be even allowed in the same sentence as Fightstar. Although Fightstar have split (for now) in my eyes, second to InMe they are one of the most under-rated banks in the UK, by a mile. The diversity in their songs is something special, i was fortunate enough to meet them when i was 17, 8 years later their music still keeps pulling me back. They need to tour again.
they haven't 'split', it's just a 'break', there was never an official break-up! Thus, there is hope for more tours when Charlies finished his solo stuff and the others are finished having babies and what not :p
I agree with everything you say apart from the bit about InMe, I thought they where terrible although I must confess I haven't heard anything from them in like 10 years at least, but judging by their early stuff they are far too Emo for my liking. They where a local band to where I live too but I still couldn't support them when there where much more innotive bands such as Vex Red and My Vitriol around at the time they where breaking through.
Couple of years late to this but i would go check them out InMe have changed alot over the last 10 years. ua-cam.com/video/EVR5Q1fwoI0/v-deo.html&edufilter=NULL
He went solo, but Fightstar is still together. They just took a break and said they would be back for a new album in late 2012 early 2013. They just wanted to try some other stuff during that time. All the members did new projects.
For ages I hated Charlie for leaving Busted but listening to Fightstar and his solo music made me realise that it was for the better. Busted were good and fun to listen to but their main audience was teenagers and their songs were somewhat 'immature' and I don't blame Charlie for wanting to get rid of that boyband-ish image. And also in many Busted interviews you could tell Charlie wasn't happy. Fightstar and Charlie may not be as big as Busted but at least Charlie is happy.
I like Fightstar and Busted. Is that so mind blowing? Busted wrote songs that were catchy and fun. Fightstar writes songs that are edgy and emotional. How the hell can we even start to compare these bands?
One of the most under rated voices ive ever heard in music, and I listening to Alot of good bands, his voice is unbelievable
I agree!
Totally agree
100% agree
I said this 2 years ago then he wins that sing show with the masks on. POINT PROVEN!
I actually applaud charlie... He did the reverse of selling out when he left busted and that is a hard thing to do because many people sell out from rock to do pop but charlie did the reverse so well done good sir :)
MattitudePlays and now back to pop again with busted
@@garden2571 not anymore 😂👌🏻👌🏻 it's the best stuff
Hahaha

Charlie Simpson has a godly voice. I could listen to it all day. Was never a fan of busted, but this, this is gold.
15 years later, and that was still the best summer we had in the UK
This song was released in 2007 so it's 17 years old n I feel ancient lol
This is so good but you must hear “City” by SLT 🤘🌇🔥
This is fantastic. Floods is one of the best songs they've put out and I'm glad they've released it as a single.
How did it take me so long to hear this. What a fantastic song!
This was his calling, Charlie never had a Boyband voice anyway. Sick ass beautiful baritone Rock voice
Yes!!!!
Blink Me Sideways Jen Ledger Busted weren't a boyband
The floods across England & Wales this week triggered my memory of this song...
2022 and still listen to this all the time such a good song love it
Same 😁
2024 here - still on my gym playlist along with Paint Your Target, Tannhauser Gate, Sharp Tongue, Flotation Therapy and Palahniuk’s Laughter! 🔥
So devastated when a good song only offers 360p.
One of my favorite songs ^^
Te encontré.
Ola k ase XD
Same in 2021 👌
Beautiful song ❤️❤️❤️🌿🌿🌿 fightstar still better then most music today
Apples and oranges indeed. I liked Busted when I was 15 and Fightstar is the kind of music I listen to now. Still they each have their own appeal.
I liked Busted a lot more when I was 16 and 17 now I'm 20 and I like Fightstar a lot more
Underrated artist, band and song. A timeless song. I wonder if being in Busted limited Charlie's career.
It definitely messed with a lot of people's perceptions
I'm officially addicted to this song. What a masterpiece!
NOT
Astral_Fizzy (PS3) Mate seriously you need to get a life
I liked Busted as a kid, and now I like this kind of music
Still love this song!! Deserves so much more recognition!
It cannot be denied that this sounds like muse.
Fightstar > Muse. Also this is more like the cleans in Miocene or Midgar. Muse is such a lazy comparison tbh
2020 underrated voice
This is the first song I listened to by Fightstar. I instantly became a fan.
I loved watching Charlie Simpson grow from busted, to this, to the solo work.
simply amazing.
Still remember all the words and the piano... Cannot believe how old it is now 🥴
one of the best bands ever. i love screamo/metalcore, metal, rock, deathmetal..pretty much anything but Fightstar is a good mix of rock and metal
I was a Busted fan. Charlie was always my favourite from the band. Love this song.
Just found out about this band- where have they been all my life? This is great
I just found out today. Lol
Omar Abidi... LEGEND!!
Leaving busted was the best thing he ever did!
Fightstar are amazing, charlie really shows what he can do in this band!
My city is experiencing heavy rain and flooding in a number of suburbs. Toowoomba, a nearby town has been all but washed away. This is my song for the flooding.
I remember Busted and loved them as a kid, but also remember growing up liking FS!! It's 2019 and I miss good music!
So underrated
This is so good but you must hear “City” by SLT 🤘🌇🔥
Still love this classic
Miss your true heart music 💙💎💕🙏
this song has grown on me, i heard it this morning, and had to fav it by this evening
im glad he left Busted to reach his full potential, he was the best one in Busted. im glad he is more happier now than being a teenage hearthrob
One of my favorite songs.
I love Fightstar so much! Going to see them soon too!!
This song is my ringtone. Has been for years
love this song and the flooding of london in the video is WOW
For some reason this song gives me chills......
I'm listening in 2018 always loved this song x
Fantastic!
This is so good but you must hear “City” by SLT 🤘🌇🔥
Charlie sings, my heart melts
lets hope busted never reappear, and in that way music will become a little better for all of us
long live his love for real music, and weep away busted loving teens
Sounds kinda like muse. Love the piano!
one of my favourite songs ,, FIGHSTAR ARE AWESOME
Still one of my fav songs
Amo tu voz Charlieee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Amo tu timidez👌

Love it!
Besides how great this song is, the message is incredibly powerful. We must take heed.
What that climate change is real?! Yea Charlie Simpson is an ecological campaigner didn't you know?! :-D
Charlie looks soooo much better now! Was never a fan of Busted, but he has a great voice, and makes one hell of a rock star :) Yum!
gorgeous....nuff said
what a great song yeah Abit like muse love it and Charlies voice so amazing 😍😍😍
still listening... one of my best song.. korean
there is one word for this song...Immense.
just found this band today........i think im in love
チャーリーは天才だな。。。
i love this song and Fightstar :)
I love how they added in the piano but it is still one rocking song
His voice
Dunno what all the hate from McBusted fans is all about. If this is what Charlie wants to do, let him! This isn't the sort of music id listen to normally but it suits his voice so much better, and it's not actually that bad.
love this song, get goosbumps every chorus
I'VE BEEN TO THE YEAR THREE THOUSAND, NOT MUCH HAS CHANGED BUT WE LIVE UNDERWATER
luv this song
Fleur brought me here! ;))
Agata Reluga Charlie's talent brought me here.
Who?
In my opinion the best song they've done!! :D
Busted shouldn't be even allowed in the same sentence as Fightstar. Although Fightstar have split (for now) in my eyes, second to InMe they are one of the most under-rated banks in the UK, by a mile.

Yeah inme went pretty much from alternative/nu metal to alternative rock to progressive rock

nice song...nice piano
I do not understand how this amazing song has so little views?!??!

The intro is my life.

I saw it yesterday on VH1 , i had to download it immediately P:
I like both fightstar and busted as they are different bands, Fightstar do need to get back together and come to the uk
That was my immediate thought when it started :D
I like Fightstar and Busted.
Is that so mind blowing?
Busted wrote songs that were catchy and fun.
Fightstar writes songs that are edgy and emotional.
How the hell can we even start to compare these bands?
BEST SONG EVER
all time favourite :)
I love this song so much ^^
this song makes me want to cry for no reason :/
Top track!!!
amazing!!
I knew Busted because of Fightstar. By the way, the sound of the piano makes me want to hear it all day long.
Count down to March ….Wembley arena……can’t wait
quite right old boy, my marshall would still be whirring away!! c'mon lads at least 15 to 20seconds !!
