They turned this "fun ,upbeat, dance with your friends" song into this slow, sensual, sex me up in the back of a club at 2am song, and I am so ready for it. My god I think I honestly prefer this to the original although I can still appreciate both versions.
One of the best bands around right now by far. Theirs is the one of the few albums I can ever remember purchasing that after months and months of listening to, I'm still playing it on repeat. Absolutely incredible.
Brian Daniel The played a free gig here in Hull just as I was getting into them (so, I wasn't too fussed about going at the time), but now, looking back, I can't believe the chance I missed out on:(
Charley Passy Each to their own:) I'm not forcing my opinions down on anyone, the bands you mentioned are probably pretty good but it's gonna take a lot for me to get past my 1975 phase, haha. Even now, two months after posting my original comment, what I wrote still stands!
Charley Passy Catfish and teh Bottlemen are a great band but Thr 1975 have a beautiful unique sound as @SuperMisterKory said "Each to their own opinion"
Oh my gosh, I was not expecting to hear the Weeknd. I love The 1975. They have such a distinct sound and it's just beautiful how they can transform songs to make them sound like their own.
You have no idea how bad I feel for people who don't know about this band or dislike them. So much joy is missing from their lives. Oh well, keep doing your thing boys. I adore you all
I find it hard to believe that matty is a self taught vocalist. His range and technique is seriously mind boggling. The vocals during their slowdown/Drive Like I Do/Big Sleep days are just a remarkable experience.
Jesus. This is such a genreless group. They incorporate so many elements, from rock n roll to r&b to even bit of jazz as we see here. They're bringing back true sound. They're bringing back music.
This is probably my favourite cover. Its just musically so different from the originally you wouldn't even know it was clean bandits song. They can turn any song into a masterpiece. Absolutely love it!
Can't believe I saw these guys at a local club for $20 bucks while I was in Uni. Their front man is so tiny it's definitely memorable when you see them preform. They were good! Had a very simple set design, like a lit up rectangular door on stage, it was really effective. This mix is smooth, but I can't believe over 4 million people have seen it-- so cool that they shot up. Good for them :).
I actually listen to this for a few months now. And for some reason I just listened to wicked games for the first time and it sounded so familiar so I searched half an hour for the Cover from which I was remembering it. Until it clicked in my head and I realized it was this video (hard to find when it is actually the cover of another song...) :D
I tought this song couldn't be more perfect, then these guys made this cover! Oh my, Jess Glynne (original singer) has to make a cameo in this! So amazing! Obsessed!
The 1975 cannot do wrong. this is so perfect. i love how they take a cover and completely change it and make it their own. They are so original and fresh i just love them. Matty's voice is just incredible ♥
true love. i just don't know how to explain my love for this band. I love matty's voice. it's so deep and it has so many "shades". I love their style that is pretty unique. Also when they do a cover they literally transform the song and make it in theirs own style. I've never fell in love into a band before and now they're kind of an obsession for me. They're so talented and i hope for them the best! Just go ahead like this the 1975 :) Can't way to see you live and to listen new songs!
So as someone who doesn't know the original, I really enjoyed this cover. I know people are always going to be comparing covers to originals, but if people enjoyed this version, isn't that the point?
omg this is crazy I was just listening to the same song they covered by the weeknd at 2:38 😱😱😱 and he's definitely my favorite artist while they are my favorite band.my face is stuck on that shocked expression.
can we talk about how beautifully john played that sax
well, they all played beautifully but i feel like john doesnt get enough recognition
Saw him hit the solo from Me at Red Rocks a few years ago and it was incredible.
John is fine too.
T he live version of Birthday party when John enters is gonna be great
They turned this "fun ,upbeat, dance with your friends" song into this slow, sensual, sex me up in the back of a club at 2am song, and I am so ready for it. My god I think I honestly prefer this to the original although I can still appreciate both versions.
ikr! I wasn't prepared.
that "sex me up in the back of a club at 2am song" lmao i feel youuu 🤣🤣🤣
this is so on point i love it aHAHAHAHAHA
fucking hell... more than a year later and im still in love with this
I knoooow. Me too.

Drenge, Catfish and The Bottlemen and The Family Rain all shit on this bollocks
Charley Passy Each to their own:) I'm not forcing my opinions down on anyone, the bands you mentioned are probably pretty good but it's gonna take a lot for me to get past my 1975 phase, haha. Even now, two months after posting my original comment, what I wrote still stands!

And now, still the same?
can we all just talk about how tiny and cute matt healy looks at the beginning
matty healy*
Regina aguirre yeah ik i realised i wrote it wrong but idk how to edit it :(

Lucia Botfield he looked so tiny

I love love love The 1975's consistent and glorious sax use.
everyone loves some sax
rory12349 What you did
I SEE IT
rory12349 Saxy.
god i love the way he says the 1975,, the nine-een sevennyfive
m8 that's called sounding a little chavvy
Shut up idiot. What are you from germany or something ;D
Wtf 😂😂
Sneaky Kiki If anything he's posh as heck.
Oh my gosh, I was not expecting to hear the Weeknd. I love The 1975. They have such a distinct sound and it's just beautiful how they can transform songs to make them sound like their own.
I'm still here after 8 years. Still sounds so good.
Here with yah
You have no idea how bad I feel for people who don't know about this band or dislike them. So much joy is missing from their lives. Oh well, keep doing your thing boys. I adore you all
1975 ft. the weeknd or the nbhd would be my wet dream
THE NBHD :)
the perfect trio, if any two of those three were to make a song i'd probably die of excitement
they should all go on a tour together
OH MY GOSH, I LOVE YOU nikiwasnthere Seriously I love the weeknd so much and you just made my life because i agree with you 100% gosh!!
jcv87 THANK YOU FOR AGREEING
they can make any song sound sexy 😍
Any word*
+Joana Santos I want Matty to speak this words : Fridge , Elevator, Toast , Grandma .
DingDong YourOpinionIsWrong he already sayed grandma in a interview when he explain his tattoos
+DingDong YourOpinionIsWrong he says toast in an interview about Australia
Okay guys this was a joke
only the first few seconds into the performance and it already sounds like perfection
Favorite band singing one on my all time favorite songs. Holy shit
The weeknd collaborating w the 1975 would be mad
+DaCrolla or with The neighborhood :)
+Kwon Hee Ji (Christina) lol I know darling ;) jk
that would be dope af
+Zuleima Avila RIGHT I WAS SERIOUSLY THINKING THAT!
+DaCrolla yeah but the weeknd is cliche
I find it hard to believe that matty is a self taught vocalist. His range and technique is seriously mind boggling. The vocals during their slowdown/Drive Like I Do/Big Sleep days are just a remarkable experience.
I'M MINDBLOWN AT HOW ADORABLE MATTY IS RN OML
Jesus. This is such a genreless group. They incorporate so many elements, from rock n roll to r&b to even bit of jazz as we see here. They're bringing back true sound. They're bringing back music.
I was definitely not expecting that voice from the way he sounded when he was talking.
In a good or bad way? 😂
I would to hear a full cover of a Weeknd song from The 1975
specifically The Morning. Matty's voice + The Morning = sex
Oh my God, this was exactly what I was thinking of. Seriously, that would be a good idea.
Jordyn Marie same
How did i fucking lived without this for 2 years ?
It's two songs that i love covered by my favorite band
exactly 2 years ago today this was posted. and im glad it was posted
The 1975 didn't just covered the song! They OWNED it!! Eargasmic!
pure perfection . love this band. Seen them live nov. 4 and it was the greatest concert I've been too.
I was at that concert too :)) the vibes where awesome i can't stop seeing it in my head
Hey I was there as well!! It was an amazing concert.
Niether can I @samantha ! The wait was insane but worth it .
Yeah @izzy! The guys really put on a show to remember :)
Jnene Gavin tell me about it. I waited outside for 14 hours. It was worth it though because I got front row and Matty's guitar pick. Ahhhh.
I stood for 10hours! Deffintely seeing the guys again!
It's so intimate man. I love the ambience he puts in to the song like ugh so perfect !
This is probably my favourite cover. Its just musically so different from the originally you wouldn't even know it was clean bandits song. They can turn any song into a masterpiece. Absolutely love it!
The 1975 covering The Weeknd....everything I love.
by far my face song right now, simply amazing
I just audibly moaned in the middle of Starbucks when he transitioned to Wicked Games
Lol
same tbh but i’m not in starbucks
this is the most first world comment I've read all week
love the saxophone, always have.
Can't believe I saw these guys at a local club for $20 bucks while I was in Uni. Their front man is so tiny it's definitely memorable when you see them preform. They were good! Had a very simple set design, like a lit up rectangular door on stage, it was really effective.
This mix is smooth, but I can't believe over 4 million people have seen it-- so cool that they shot up. Good for them :).
Tiny 😂😂 I died
I have literally listened to this version 2-3 times a day for the past 2 weeks .
Started hearing Wicked Games and I was not expecting it in a good way.
me too
this will never get old
saxophone dude has got it going on
2024 and still listening to this version. Prefer this than the original
This so amazing I'm so in love with it I listen to it daily and make my friends listen to it
Matty's little move at 1:06. Hahaha these guys are legends
I NEED HOLY WATER FOR THE THOUGHTS THAT ARE RUNNING THRU MY HEAD RN HALP ABJSKSSGFKDFULDFKV
the way they all dance with their instruments is so hot
Matty dancing and vibing are giving me sooo much life!
Oh my god. I need a full cover of Wicked Games like right now.
i'm desperate for hearing more the weeknd songs from matty
I actually listen to this for a few months now. And for some reason I just listened to wicked games for the first time and it sounded so familiar so I searched half an hour for the Cover from which I was remembering it. Until it clicked in my head and I realized it was this video (hard to find when it is actually the cover of another song...) :D
I would actually pass
These guys should really release an album of covers.
more than a year later still the best live lounge performance on bbc radio xx
I tought this song couldn't be more perfect, then these guys made this cover! Oh my, Jess Glynne (original singer) has to make a cameo in this! So amazing! Obsessed!
Watched this a year ago for the first time. Loved it then and still love it now. Love the mix with wicked games. Just awesome
The 1975 cannot do wrong. this is so perfect. i love how they take a cover and completely change it and make it their own. They are so original and fresh i just love them. Matty's voice is just incredible ♥
NEVER IN MY LIFE FELT THIS HAPPY AND CLAM AT THE SAME DAMN TIME
love that they approach every cover they do from their own direction! It's definitely interesting to hear someone mix it up a bit
i still fucking love this song it's been 2 years and i'm still bloody in love with it
They finessed this. It sounds so gorgeous.
+Daija Graves MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
*TRIGGERED
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMNNMMM
Sooooooo. They just sexified this song like crazy... Geez that saxaphone makes me melt
radio 1 you should consider changing the into / outro noise it could kill OUR EARS i swear......
they probably do that so people won't illegally download it.
whenever the noise starts i feel my ear drum being ripped am sure many others feel the same way, they can just change the noise.
omg same!
Yes!!! I'm surprised I don't read comments like this more often.
***** people stll do it lol
still so obsessed with this aah
the 1975 needs to do a full cover of wicked games ! 😩😩😩
Song sounds so good and deep... They can literally change the most happiest song to something deep and emotional
matty can make anything/any song sound amazing
sooo goood!!! i love what they did with the musical arrangements. it's sooo them
The 1975's covers are always my favourite
I am too in love with them
And the there's John being frikin adorable with that didly darn saxophone
HOW IS SOMEONE SO SEXY BUT THEN ADORABLE LIKE WHAT
That's what I'm wondering
I know right 🤷🏼♀️
The second he switched to Wicked Games, my heart just melted
iVE BEEN BLESSED WE'VE ALL BEEN BLESSED
matty is driving me insane
daaaamn girl, mane irgi!!!!
Im sick I can't even breath or open my eyes! And this is helping me to get through this horrible day...
Listening again because of 2:27-3:24
Bless The 1975
BLESS THE WEEKND
the vibes I'm getting right now are unreal honestly.
The fact i met the boys last night and all day i have had them on repeat trying to get over it but i seriously cant
I love this so much I still can't get over it
It's already 2017 and I'm still in love with this
2022 and back
So glad I clicked on this. Had only heard Chocolate previously. Wow did I get a surprise. :-)
John Randle It's only the beginning ;)
John Randle if you start listening to their other songs you might become addicted just a warning aha
true love.
i just don't know how to explain my love for this band. I love matty's voice. it's so deep and it has so many "shades". I love their style that is pretty unique. Also when they do a cover they literally transform the song and make it in theirs own style.
I've never fell in love into a band before and now they're kind of an obsession for me.
They're so talented and i hope for them the best! Just go ahead like this the 1975 :)
Can't way to see you live and to listen new songs!
They're seriously the best thing that's happened to indie rock/pop music in SO LONG
that switch CAME OUTTA NOWHERE I FEEL SO ATTACKED YESS THE WEEKND AND THE 1975
So as someone who doesn't know the original, I really enjoyed this cover. I know people are always going to be comparing covers to originals, but if people enjoyed this version, isn't that the point?
This cover is absolutely amazing! I love how into it the boys get. Truly talented musicians
Damn. This is chill af. Love it!
This cover is giving me all kinds of feelings and sensations..
This cover and Dan singing Rather Be are my favorite ones.
just listened to this again, still awesome, loving the sorry cover
this is like the best thing in the friggin world.
lol
joyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy text meeeeeeeeeeee
okaaayyyyy tomorrow. =)
joyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
Facts
I can't put the right words together to express how much this band means to me.
What's not to love about the 1975?
Killing me. God, I love the 1975 so much. Lord give me the strength.
omg this is crazy I was just listening to the same song they covered by the weeknd at 2:38 😱😱😱 and he's definitely my favorite artist while they are my favorite band.my face is stuck on that shocked expression.
Matty can make ANY song better.
The 1975*
cotelactica mj . The whole band is gr8 but i was talking vocally.
This song went from 0-100 real quick
My all time favourite cover of this song
The way they remade these songs perfectly to their chill vibe... matty be killin me :') yumawdjsnskmmmm
they are just really really beautiful, unreal, and god-like when they perform live. The beginning sounded like Alison Wonderland's 'I Want U'.
It feels like Matty is directly serenading you. It's talent. Very atrractive talent.
lol i still love this
Still
@@maddiemusic123 still? :)
3 years later and matty still has me so happy bc of this cover ahhhhhhhhh😍😍
the 1975 should do a cover of The nbhd really, i think it would sound mind blowing
WHY AM I JUST NOW SEE THIS? ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!
This Cover was so chilled...
such a beautiful voice, especially when done with mellow musics. :)))))))
he looks so much better w this style and hair cut tbh
Yeah I like both I can't decide
disagree, the perm is life.
I thinks it's his natural hair if I'm not mistaken
I like his natural hair more. his curls are just so gorgeous
I love the jazzy atmosphere in this song.
