every acoustic version is better than this which is played in radio. The radio swallows this wonderful voice. I don't like radio versions of Bastille's songs. But when i hear a acoustic version i'm in love with dan's voice.
Its nice to see a singer go outside of his normal range and give that extra effort to hit the higher notes. Shows their love for music making music, not being a band.
That's unbelievable! How can they be that good - better than original - with just a guitar, it's case and, well, themselves? Dan with glasses, nice... So he usually wears contacts? Still, no hiding his amazingly beautiful grey eyes! But one thing I have to ask: Why is it that nearly all good musicians are always wearing Chuck Taylors??? Do they make you more musical?
i dont know why every time i listen to this song sung by them, my eyes are wet. i close my eyes and imagine the scene described in the lyrics, lost and desperate in search of the way of love the video of sessions was shot in Berlin where i used to stay, despite not staying that long as a native, this band awaken my memories so much, thanks for sharing!
Das stimmt allerdings ;) Ich war aber nicht darauf hinaus ein großes publikum anzusprechen, sondern ich wollte einfach nur meinen Senf unter dieses Video klatschen :D
Lil dumb, but could you please please upload this one RUclips music somehow? I really really love this, but I can never add it to my playlist and it feels so incomplete; a lot of the Berlin sessions already are available, somehow this one doesn't show there. It's so raw and beautiful
Sing along Eh, eheu, eheu Eh, eheu, eheu Eh, eheu, eheu Eh, eheu, eheu Eh, eheu, eheu Eh, eheu, eheu Eh, eheu, eheu Eh, eheu, eheu I was left to my own devices Many days fell away with nothing to show And the walls kept tumbling down in the city that we love Grey clouds roll over the hills bringing darkness from above But if you close your eyes Does it almost feel like nothing changed at all? And if you close your eyes Does it almost feel like you've been here before? How am I gonna be an optimist about this? How am I gonna be an optimist about this?

if these people you're talking about, weren't speaking in english, you wouldn't listen to their songs now... English is the language of music nowadays, like it's always been!

Yeah, as other people has said, they are English... And coming from a non-english speaking country, I'm kind of aware of how bad it sounds, when we sing in our own language...
Cool video. Thx for sharing. I just discovered an up & coming musician similar to this that's worth checking out... Mikey Wax... Search his song "You Lift Me Up". Really good stuff.

10 years and ı m still coming back to this version of the song everytime
Cuz its the best version
Raw talent, it really doesn't get any better than this. I can fall in love with music again. Thank you Bastille
It didn’t went any better 😢
@@sergiigarlo😊😊😊
I love how Dan goes on his tiptoes when he does the high notes:3 He's a cutie.
ahaha i like to mock him when he does it
This song is infinite.
I don't know why but I love so much the a Capella versions
We all do
Makes me feel a certain way watching this, really cool
this acoustic version is much better than original which is played in radio..love it

I love the harmony and simplicity of this version. G-D beautiful.
This version is better than the original! I find.
Alizée Michaud The Kat Krazy Remix is way better than the Original version

Cat talks
love these acoustic sessions, amazing
How did I miss this before? It's amazing.
The Berlin Session and Mahogany Session ones are far better than the normal one. Unreal stuff
Gives goosebumps everytime 😊
Great tone in 1:20! Amazing!!!!!
They are so incredibly good at making music. I'm still so angry at myself for being to late with buying tickets for their show.
Same, I was so excited to see them in Berlin, but they sold out...
That's unbelievable! How can they be that good - better than original - with just a guitar, it's case and, well, themselves?

playing it again and again. such an amazing song! lots of love from germany (:
i dont know why every time i listen to this song sung by them, my eyes are wet. i close my eyes and imagine the scene described in the lyrics, lost and desperate in search of the way of love
the video of sessions was shot in Berlin where i used to stay, despite not staying that long as a native, this band awaken my memories so much, thanks for sharing!
They are amazing

As someone who struggles with it, I think this guy has some awesome control of his voice.
This is beautiful

Many days fell away with nothing to show
And the walls kept tumbling down in the city that we love
Grey clouds roll over the hills bringing darkness from above

Does it almost feel like nothing changed at all?

Does it almost feel like you've been here before?
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?

Warum gehen solche Bands überhaupt in ein Studio?
Yeah, as other people has said, they are English... And coming from a non-english speaking country, I'm kind of aware of how bad it sounds, when we sing in our own language...
