Saw him live in the outdoor theater in Amsterdam Woods last night. His voice is so powerful, not a note out of place and a mesmerizing set. His band can totally play tight as well. He is a must to see live if you get a chance.
I really have an obsession with this song and heard all cover versions, I guess. Most do sound not that good because they can't do the tripled vibrato, which makes the song so unique. This version is the only one I really like beside those milky chance made themselves. Awesome sang and cool new composition. Made me fall In love with the song again after hearing the original one too often. 😗👌
I'm drunk right Now but I've listened to this song a couple of dozen times before and I just want to say its perfection,it couldn't improve no matter what you did to it
Like the stickys cover and milky chances cover on triple j the definition of an artist is one who can create a piece or modify another's so well and creatively that it becomes their own. I loved it in a different way to the original and thought the words spoke so eloquently for themselves! !@
I want you by my side So that I never feel alone again They've always been so kind But now they've brought you away from me I hope they didn't get your mind Your heart is too strong, anyway We need to fetch back the time They have stolen from us [2x:] I want you We can bring it on the floor Never danced like this before We don't talk about it Dancing on, do the boogie all night long Stoned in paradise Shouldn't talk about it Shouldn't talk about it Coldest winter for me No sun is shining anymore The only thing I feel is pain Caused by absence of you Suspense controlling my mind I cannot find the way out of here I want you by my side So that I never feel alone again [2x:] I want you We can bring it on the floor Never danced like this before We don't talk about it Dancing on, do the boogie all night long Stoned in paradise Shouldn't talk about it Shouldn't talk about it [2x:] I want you We can bring it on the floor Never danced like this before We don't talk about it Dancing on, do the boogie all night long Stoned in paradise Shouldn't talk about it Shouldn't talk about it
Maybe you would like your musicians to be more like Justin Bieber and Miley Cyrus? I guess there will always be a market for superficial musicians as long as there are superficial consumers.
Rùnar, I don't really care what my musicians look like (in fact I prefer someone to be a little different as it adds colour) and I don't think anyone here's disputing the quality of music which is superb. I think it's good to have a sense of humour though :)
I know. It's amazing!!! They also did a song on Like A Version 13. I wish it was on Spotify. Maybe we can do a rant on Instagram or something to persuade them to put it on because it's bloody briliant!!!
Yes! This is great. Says a lot about his voice in that he can pull off a song like this which is in itself popular mostly for its quirky style (in my opinion).
Obviously love this group. Can anyone comment or lead me in the right direction as to what the drummer is playing there, and what the singer is playing?
An Icelandic band covering a German song on an Australian radio station. Music knows no bounds.
Isn't it awesome! Music is love 💖
in english
Just wait until someone covers "Rasputin" :)
Still perfect 9 years later.
Just discovered Like A Version, I'm plowing through these things. This is fantastic.
+TenThumbs Productions ... I was going to give you some suggestions to look up, but there are too many. Have fun.
Same! I’m binge listening 🙌🏽❤️❤️❤️

Good shit, eh?
gimli just killing it on the drums
Hands down best cover of this song on youtube.
best cover of *any* song on youtube.
Meh

I can't stop playing this... Gives me shivers every time. I would go as far as saying this is better than the original. Love.
madeline kerr yea im spellbound by his voice
+madeline kerr .... Better than the original??!! .... Ummm ..... I think you may have a point. It is a fantastic cover.
A Cover is never better than the original no matter who sang. That's disrespectful to the original song/artist.
There is a beautiful vulnerability in this singers voice despite the rough exterior
Brandon G Voices that sound too refined start to sound bad to me... I like rough and unique voices like this guys, and Milky Chance's.
Of course there is....He's Ásgeir Trausti
That's him in a nutshell. Such a beautiful musician. Check out Leyndarmal or Snowblind
I love how into it Hagrid is. It's nice to see he found a passion after defeating Voldemort.
+Mike Logan You're an Icelandic singer, Harry!
His voice !!! I love ! And this song my god !
I'm obsessed with Asgier after hearing them on Radio X in the UK. Amazing band, their so good at making covers sound like their own.
Just perfect. Asgeir did bring the galdur
OMG. THAT FUCKING VOICE.
Im so in love with Asgeir...

His accent is so cute when he sings.
I remember watching this so many years ago. Still gives me the same feeling despite my whole life being different.
That voice. I'm in love with this.
Love the original, love this even more!
Beautifullll. Asgeir has such an amazing voice and he did so well to make it his own. looooveelllyyyy.
Absolutely brilliant! Love Asgeir so much and that song too so it's cover win!
Angelic, the only word that could possibly describe this performance.
im a fan of his facial structure thats for sure
The description of this video is the best! It's true enough, he is God's gift to Iceland (and his music is a gift to the whole world).
Asgeir's voice; like daggers to the soul. Beautiful.
My favourite singer covering one of my favourite songs. Wooow.
wow i'm speechless
Like the stickys cover and milky chances cover on triple j the definition of an artist is one who can create a piece or modify another's so well and creatively that it becomes their own. I loved it in a different way to the original and thought the words spoke so eloquently for themselves! !@
holy shit, killed it!
Obsessed with this cover, listening to it over and over
He sings with the voice of an angel. It's so calming ♥
Absolutely beautiful cover. Made my morning.
I want you by my side
So that I never feel alone again
They've always been so kind
But now they've brought you away from me
I hope they didn't get your mind
Your heart is too strong, anyway
We need to fetch back the time
They have stolen from us
[2x:]
I want you
We can bring it on the floor
Never danced like this before
We don't talk about it
Dancing on, do the boogie all night long
Stoned in paradise
Shouldn't talk about it
Shouldn't talk about it
Coldest winter for me
No sun is shining anymore
The only thing I feel is pain
Caused by absence of you
Suspense controlling my mind
I cannot find the way out of here
I want you by my side
So that I never feel alone again
[2x:]
I want you
We can bring it on the floor
Never danced like this before
We don't talk about it
Dancing on, do the boogie all night long
Stoned in paradise
Shouldn't talk about it
Shouldn't talk about it
[2x:]
I want you
We can bring it on the floor
Never danced like this before
We don't talk about it
Dancing on, do the boogie all night long
Stoned in paradise
Shouldn't talk about it
Shouldn't talk about it
Oh dear, that's too beautiful.
Holy crap! Fantastic voice..unique. Love the instrumental work too. Great job everyone!

Gorgeous voice and really cool arrangement :). Always thought this was such a unique song with heaps of potential and you guys realised it
Looks like he brought the cast of Lord of the Rings with him
This is my favourite comment of all time!
Haha....the percussionist looks like he just walked out of the last ice age.

Rúnar Geir Þorsteinsson relax man, he's obviously being funny
this is soooo great! And so cool to see Bill Burr on the keys!

Kudos to you guys!

This is phenomenal
This group looks like they just wandered in after going hunting.
The original is great, but this cover is simply perfect. :3
Beautiful well done boys
This and in hearts wake version of vice grip are some of the most magic moments on radio
So much yes! Totally fixes my no-Splendour-blues! #ÁsgeirForPM
still the best version of this song can’t get it on spotify
I know. It's amazing!!! They also did a song on Like A Version 13.
I wish it was on Spotify. Maybe we can do a rant on Instagram or something to persuade them to put it on because it's bloody briliant!!!

I need this in MP3 form. I need to listen to this always, everywhere *_*
good job, love the keyboards especially :) !!!
amazing
Wow!
Not enough likes, this is amazing
i love how none of them are moving around that much, then you look over to the drummer...
Exquisit version. Only for delicatessen ears.
Obviously love this group. Can anyone comment or lead me in the right direction as to what the drummer is playing there, and what the singer is playing?
I would also like to know what the singer is playing
If you're still wondering I couldn't tell you the brands but the drummer is on an electronic percussion pad and Ásgeir is on some sort of mini synth
Oh, sweetness!
