Hans Zimmer could honestly put a microphone in a taco bell bathroom and make a masterpiece out of it

[@fredriksvensson1181]

too real

[@briannugent5399]

😂

[@ewan_stormer6668]

@@gosias751you realise this was only released in 2013? Not at all millennial…

[@jessicaribeiro4694]

We need more of Freya Ridings and Bastille together

[@johannaahlstrom910]

The orchestra, the choir, the singers. This reminds me how beautiful life can be. And what beautiful things we can create together.

[@tylersilver1492]

What a beautiful comment, Johanna. I agree.

[@Atif_Ph.D._Kate_Bush_Fan_Club]

Wow 😮.
You know you’ve hit peak success not when you’ve sold more albums than any other artist but when Hans Zimmer provides the music to your song!

[@Shiturin]

I need this on Spotify ASAP

[@geraldfoster428]

I was so happy when I heard Freya on the alto line (for the most parts) instead of the soprano which she generally sings. If you know Freya's voice, you know she's a beautiful and distinct but overtaking soprano. However, she appropriated her voice magnificently here and complimented Bastille's very well. That's talent right there. Loved it.

[@AlleliHull]

Serving the song :) Freya Ridings' voice is so full in her lower register!

[@12345Yeah]

Cringe lord

[@elfmatw]

@@12345Yeah No need to introduce yourself.

[@davidalbro2009]

Freya Ridings isn't a soprano. Even the high note here is well within contralto range.

[@rudsondeygner5721]

Man, these two prove the world what singing really means. It's unbelievable how their voices match so perfectly. ❤

[@tk123420020]

he almost cannot stand still while singing because of how much he puts into it. And Freya is just out of this world. Such a masterpiece.

[@javindo]

They both have such amazing voices this is such a beautiful collab

[@FIshfood500]

No it isn’t. It’s fake AF

[@ShyFly1000]

I love him! Seen him live multiple times and his voice gives me chills! Freya actually adds to his voice which is so impressive. They sound amazing together. Beautiful

[@gosias751]

Milenial song im polish and i feel that too

[@vishva_de_zoysa]

This is better than the studio version, who agrees?

[@saraharquelau3577]

It gave me goosebumps from beginning to end

[@benread7792]

I so wish there were a production version on Spotify with Freya as well.. this is just the most wonderful collab.

[@user-ef5mn1ui4j]

I got the chills. What a stunning, breathtaking performance. Such powerful voices! And the stage design and lights.... just WOW

[@Follager69]

Same here! Majestic singing from these two. Fwiw I just researched the phenomenon and it's called musical frisson and apparently not everyone gets chills or goosebumps listening to music. Glad to be one of the ones that do as it's such a good feeling!

[@Jaa_morant]

Bastille always kills it in awards show performances!

[@TheZzou]

simply beautiful staging.

[@andrewbrandenburg3842]

I was so happy they came out with this version and have been listening to it on Spotify nonstop. It shows the power that music can have on a song. I love it!

[@ubongabasi9110]

Link please?
Can't find any on Spotify with freya

[@adaezeobilom]

​@ubongabasi9110 Me too

[@TheLuckalee33]

This was beautiful! I would love to hear a version with just Freya also! Her voice…beautiful!

[@Charlie_Hodge]

This has gotta get to No.1 in the charts!

[@pedrosousa8512]

I have to say this, but this singers with hans zimmer´s, what a masterpiece!!!!

[@kristy-maxineakiro4938]

Hans Zimmer is and always will be a musical genius.!

[@rejaakkk3831]

this performance itself feels like a movie

[@scarlatpaiva5011]

The perfection exists ❤

[@attackfox]

Still can’t get over this Hans Zimmer version.

[@gabifgt]

i haven't been this stunned in a long time. i literally have chills all over my body. it's like i transcended.

[@TheZzou]

how does this masterpiece only have 800k views, wth!!

[@jncg2311]

Good grief. The range, power and control that Freya often exhibits has so much meaning in this duet. Dan, of course was superb too. Just off the back of the acoustic Live in Paris performance by Bastille this was a really wonderful thing to stumble upon.

[@alex_marten]

Love Freya Ridings. Amazing performance.

[@tk_elizabeth]

I don't normally enjoy renditions of songs but this was amazing.

[@AtikBayraktar]

amazing live performance!

[@BoardyRocks]

Ok, so I have listened to this song probably more times than is normal. When Freya joined in it gave me chills.

[@YeshItsCourtney]

Lookit how happy Dan is, that makes my heart happy ❤

[@soniasoca8165]

This song got me so emotional, I cried. Just when I thought this song couldn´t get any better

[@daniloescobar6813]

What a masterpiece, sounds like angels

[@huzaifamasud7706]

Only real ones can feel 10+ yrs in them
