My friend repeatedly told me he didnt care to listen to Kaleo. I refuted - they're so talented. Time passed, he talked shit about my love for them. He went to a music festival with his girlfriend (now wife) - said their favorite show from the whole festival was these guys..and specifically mentioned the cover of this song. This band is special.
For me, this is the best version of this beautiful song. And what I love the best is the drama he does almost at the end of the song, screaming due to the pain he feels to have been abandoned
This morning, my daughter introduced me to KALEO. Holy b'jeebus, holy dear mother of gods beejeebus. Their cover of Cher's "Bang Bang" just topped my love of Nancy Sinatra's cover, and I have immense levels of adoration for her cover of the song. If I had to describe the mood of this cover for pairing with a screen scene: It hits that sweet spot when all my precious '70s rock gods and '80s glam hair bands went early-'90s gritty - the sort of song backing a drunk-n-dirty revenge f_ck up against the back wall of a side road dive bar, under the cover of thunder and sheeted with driving rain, then walking away demolished though resolute in the knowledge that you've leveled several lives to utter ruin. I never had that one; I came really close to it once, but I walked away. This cover lets me feel as if I'd stayed.
wow...I never particularly liked this song before but this dude brings it to life. Stunning! I mean he's from ICELAND & he sings the blues like THIS?! DAMN! 😊 👏💕
At first I was taken aback a little, liking the Nancy Sinatra sung version a lot... but then this man changes the whole tune, up to a new level. *goosebumps* Well done!
I hear it over and over again and each time it hits my heart. 💥BANG!! 💥This voice is out of this world, he sings with his whole soul, Thank you Iceland for this exceptional artist!!!💥💥💥💥💥
What a Voice, What a band and what an utterly outrageously amazing cover! JJ's Range is insane, especially while not compromising that husky voice one little bit! Bravo.
Just came here to appreciate everyone else's job but vocalist. Everyone says he's awesome and I agree with them, but instrumentalists are awesome too, just like singer. Keep up guys.
So extremely excited to see them next month. JJs voice is one I've never quite heard and the way they all meld their respective instruments into one coherent sound is incredible.
Had you shown me this before I got to know him, I wouldn't for the world have believed that that was his real voice. Só many different sounds out of one man. Incredible.
Kaleo - "Bang Bang” I was five and he was six We rode on horses made of sticks He wore black and I wore white He would always win the fight Bang bang, he shot me down Bang bang, I hit the ground Bang bang, that awful sound Bang bang, my baby shot me down Seasons came and changed the time When I grew up, I called him mine He would always laugh and say "Remember how we used to play?" Bang bang, he shot me down Bang bang, I hit the ground Bang bang, that awful sound Bang bang, oh, my baby shot me down Oh, my baby shot me down Now he's gone, I don't know why Until this day I sometimes cry He didn't even say goodbye He didn't take the time to lie Bang bang, he shot me down Bang bang, I hit the ground Bang bang, that awful sound Bang bang, oh, my baby... Oh, my baby shot me down...
Well happy birthday to me!! I have been listening to this band all day, for the first time, and it's my birthday and all I gotta say is that I love love love them more with every song.
JJ has to be one of the luckiest humans. He has an awesome voice, plays guitar the way I never will, looks good and he's been living in the most beautiful spot on Earth during his first years of his life. I envy him. But I like KALEO, so it's all good. :D
I would have never thought that this song could be improved… I was totally wrong!!! Your cover is much better than the original. Your voice, the song’s arrangements, the feelings, that we all can even touch while you sing, all this makes this song UNIQUE! Thank you for this masterpiece!
The best part is that they sound better live even better than the studio versions. Everyone who has the chance must attend their live they are too good to miss out
Always loved this sad song from the old days of Cher. Some year later Terry Reid made a rock ballad cover version. And now, nearly half a century later these boys come out with it. Nice done!
Я в таком волнении,восхищении,восторге.Самое удачное исполнение этой потрясающей песни.Я стала поклонницей этой великой группы.У меня сердце плачет от такого голоса.Спасибо Вам!

❤🎉 I’m glad he came to his senses and got married 😊
The fact this isn’t on Spotify is a crime
fully support
yes @@ЗухурМамадназаров
Uhuh
agree
I couldn’t agree more!!!
This is easily, by far, hands down the BEST version of this fantastic song.
Not true, I agree the vocals are the best ever but guitar is nearly mediocre. Wish they tried something different.
No. Bastille does a better mashup version
froulis94035 Cher obviously does it better since she’s the original performer of the song. Lady Gaga also made a great jazz version of the song
@@AlexeBriand2002 i think the original was Nancy Sinatra in 1966
Alex21 nope, Sonny Bono wrote it for Cher
his voice is out of this world
Is this for real, what a cover, his voice the guitars the drums eargasmic
You should hear it in real life
Save Yourself live is deff an eargasm
Nancy you made me go back and listen to it again after 5 years big thanks ❤️
Well he is on the list 📃🎸🥁
@@samerdaher1598 for sure !
At 73, I have listened to this song over 100 times. I wish I had that voice and....age. great job.
Hey stranger! You're about to witness one of the greatest masterpieces ever recorded!
That vocal run destroys me every time I hear it. Insane.
Seriously, I think you could sing the alphabet and make it sound unreal.😍
ruclips.net/video/FrA_-Tx-L2w/видео.html
Kaleo / JJ should do Sesame St ruclips.net/video/ML8IL77gQ3k/видео.html
Are you Sirius?
I mean, the alphabet got potential you feel me
Which language?? He can do multiple
I am 68 but this band is the discovery of my life!

The voice just seems unreal, it is one of the most amazing things I've ever listened to
lmao, and .. what do you listen to xD give me a good laught plzplzplz
I agree I just saw them live and it was unreal... he truly is one of the most talented vocalists I’ve ever heard...it blew me away
@@magikkris always gotta be a hater lmao
@@magikkris what vocals are superior to his? lol
Why am I only hearing of Kaleo now???
Hands down one of the best bands ever..!!
For me, this is the best version of this beautiful song. And what I love the best is the drama he does almost at the end of the song, screaming due to the pain he feels to have been abandoned
I knew about Kaleo years now, but this is the first time I hear this version. The Best!

I always thought the original was Nancy's!
This song made bang bang in everyone's heart
Damn!!! This guy!! His voice!!! Unfreakingbelievable!!!
@Lauren Paterson: Veritas!!!
I love this band so much! They're music and style is so incredible and original!
Devon Alyse Not that original, very very inspired by The Rolling Stones
Sly Cooper they don't really remind that much of The Rolling Stones tbh
👍
I was not ready for this .. They are amazing
Nobody is ready for JJ‘s voice, when heard for the first time 😅
@@MichelMayerle Well said!!
wow...I never particularly liked this song before but this dude brings it to life. Stunning! I mean he's from ICELAND & he sings the blues like THIS?! DAMN! 😊 👏💕
We have the blues up here from time to time. Real life you know ;)
@@eddahafsta874 you recommend any icelandic blues artist/band ( even if it’s not english lyrics )
totalllly agree
At first I was taken aback a little, liking the Nancy Sinatra sung version a lot... but then this man changes the whole tune, up to a new level. *goosebumps* Well done!
With the choice of song, his voice, the guitars, the soul, it's a wonder how people can go on with their work on the other side of that glass
By far the best version of this piece. This guy can express sincere deep hurt and yet still remain a man not a victim - he is awesome.
Bulls-eye observation on this singer.He is beyond marvelous
That's the best version I've ever heard of this song.
Thank you Cher for having him interpret this so incredibly differently and beautifully. I'd never heard this song quite as clear before.
This is what a cover must be , different but still great
OMG!!!!!!! HIS VOICE Hypnotizes ME!!!! WHERE HAS HE BEEN??? WHERE HAVE THEY BEEN???? AT A LOST 4 WORDS ❤️
I hear it over and over again and each time it hits my heart. 💥BANG!! 💥This voice is out of this world, he sings with his whole soul, Thank you Iceland for this exceptional artist!!!💥💥💥💥💥
Best version I have ever heard - brings me out in goose pimples.......
Incredible voice... unforgettable
the voice of this guy and the musical talent in general of this band is just unbeatable. Real, raw music. How refreshing
The most masculine voice I´ve ever heard, man what a talent what a band love every single song best regards from Denmark!
The best cover for this song....EVER!
4:05 maaaan ! goosebumps
come on now bro dont act all gay
@@averagejoegrows its okay to act gay if its kaleo
@@averagejoegrowshow is it gay😂
When the song finds it's RIGHT singer!
Goosebumps every single time I hear this! Bravo!!!
What a Voice, What a band and what an utterly outrageously amazing cover! JJ's Range is insane, especially while not compromising that husky voice one little bit! Bravo.
I honestly don't know what to say -- this has left me stunned it is so compelling and soul shredding
Good god...THAT VOICE! Amazing

I never get tired listening to them.... Please never stop!
Це найкраще виконання цієї пісні. Дуже сильно і талановито
sounds just as good live.... best concert I've ever been to.
when ever you dont know what you feel like listening to.. I always come to this. Kaleo are just great.
he's giving so much emotion on his voice and on his face and I simply adore it
Kaleo - "Bang Bang”
I was five and he was six
We rode on horses made of sticks
He wore black and I wore white
He would always win the fight
Bang bang, he shot me down
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, my baby shot me down
Seasons came and changed the time
When I grew up, I called him mine
He would always laugh and say
"Remember how we used to play?"
Bang bang, he shot me down
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, oh, my baby shot me down
Oh, my baby shot me down
Now he's gone, I don't know why
Until this day I sometimes cry
He didn't even say goodbye
He didn't take the time to lie
Bang bang, he shot me down
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, oh, my baby...
Oh, my baby shot me down...
Thank you.
What an Artist!
Unbelievable. Love Kaleo s voice, emotion he can get words
WOW
these guys are awesome. one of the best voices out there right now
WHAT A VOICE THIS MAN NEEDS AWARDS
I just love this band of Icelanders, what an amazing sound they create. plus, I think the drummer is really cute.
Well happy birthday to me!! I have been listening to this band all day, for the first time, and it's my birthday and all I gotta say is that I love love love them more with every song.

A musician with a broken heart, as I call him)) Definitely one of the best in our time! For me in general the best!🤗😅
This cover is insane! I love them more every day
I’ve never been so thankful Cher was an artist, just so this cover could happen.
this has to be the best cover ever made
Holy shit!!! That voice gives me chills! Just amazing 👏
I would have never thought that this song could be improved… I was totally wrong!!!

3:22 - 4:22 in case you need something to listen to on the way to do something that's about to change your entire life. Good luck.
I love this part . On rewind 😍
I hope it helps me

I was lucky that I saw them perform this live. It was a shocking experience.
Wendong Wu Same here. And it was every bit as good as this. Best live band I’ve ever seen.
