Love to see my tax dollars went towards brining this legend back to the public
When the cover of a song you don’t know is so good you have to listen to the original. NBT really made this song theirs. It’s got that build I love them for.
I knew the original before this came out and I love it but when this came out I was shook both are amazing imo
I did in fact go to the original and have enjoyed gang of youths music but do prefer this version - gentle then powerful
Yay! The video is back up. The audio alone is great but the video just brings it up to the next level. This is hands down one of the greatest performances online
You know it's gonna get good when Conor gets on his tiptoes to sing
I love that comment!
And i thought telepathy was a hoax
Not many front men in music these days without a G-tar in their mits. So when you see this kid let it out through the bridge... Best! Best thing! Beeeeest thing ever!!
@@24Gagey I prefer a keytar anytoot.
This video proves that Conor Mason not only has the best voice in rock music, he's got the best stage moves.
Triple J - i need this like i need oxygen. 🔥🔥🔥 Always and permanently. Please find a way to keep it online, preferably with video. Voting for this in the LAV poll - nothing else comes close.
I wish it was on Spotify
Yeah why did it disappear 😢
Bro idk if you've heard of "I Need Air" but it's another NBT song only on yt and your comment reminded me of it. Go check it out!
It's been a while since I heard I Need Air. Thanks for the reminder. Might give it a listen tonight @@mcbubbles6714
conor is one of the best rock vocalists of his age, absolutely stunning
The passion that escapes from Connor and into those moves in the middle, is exactly what NBT does to me.
every song, every time.
I wish this was on Spotify 😢
x2
X3
With a mullet and talent like that what more could you want.
a bigger mullet
Justin McDermott you got me there.
I have not heard a more Australian comment. I'm in complete agreeance with you!
Yeah moi boi.
@@joostin123 😂
A year has passed and I’m still coming back to listen to this cover. Makes me feel a lot of emotions
Man... when you hear something you didnt know you really needed.
betruet exactly bra! ! !
Took the words right out of my mouth
Haha! Spot on mate!! :)
well said
bUT YOU do
My #1 vote for LAV 💯
Not even a question
🤘
Damn straight! ❤
yep same! people are sleeping on this cover
Same
Missed watching this so much, glad to see it's back, wanted to see this played live at Grooving the Moo.😁
Gooodd I love it when Nothing But Thieves does the Nothing But Thieves thing, ya feel?
slumbers i do... i really do
O yep
This was made for Conor. Vary rare I have a band on repeat, and in particular this track.
Fantastic Cover. 👏👏👏👏
There's a difference between finding a song you love and falling in love with the song. the latter cannot be explained nor expressed into words, and that's exactly how I feel about this song.
I'm sorry but how is this not on triple js spotify. Blows my mind.
I think gang of youths probably put a stop to high quality covers being put out so people would listen to the original. It's such a shame tho bc this is one of the best like a versions in history.
Y'all ever wonder about how many songs you're missing out on hearing in Conor’s voice that he just sings in the shower or the car or whatever. It's not fair that the whole world doesn't get to hear every single song he sings 😡😭😭
😂😂😂
I literally think about that too!!! 😂😭
I can’t believe how amazing this is. They are so talented.
How a cover should be done. 👏🏼👏🏼 Another song on the shortlist for Hottest 100. Legends 🤙🏼
I love Conor's voice so much. So much emotion and never get tired of hearing it. We need more like this. So Raw! I feel like he sings to me!
I just can’t get over how good these guys are. Please save me.
Finally a like a version where everybodies comments are positive
steve york how couldn’t they be positive?
4.2k likes v 16 dislikes and #5 on trending. You can't get much better than that!
Have u not heard dmas cover Cher?
nothing but thieves, and English rocks tends to be of a high enough standard to impress the majority of listeners.
I didn't know I'm able to fall in love with this band more, but here I am. This made me literally cry. You can feel in their performance that it's 100% them.
Oh yes, I know that feeling!
My god this is good. So much emotion in his voice and his moves. These guys are something special. I'm late to their music but am making up lost time and it's been thee best time!
i am so so happy that this song back online!! this is the best version of this song ever!!!
Last Saturday was my wedding, this was our first dance, we practiced a dance to it for months with an instructor, it was perfect, made more perfect by my best mate showing a video during his speech to us of Conor giving a shout out to my bride and I after bumping into him at a pub in London. I live in South Africa btw. This band and this song is just absolute perfection
❤🇿🇦🎧🎼
Amazing!!! How lovely of Conor and what a great best mate you have 🤯
Good luck to the rest of the bands doing lav this year, you just won't beat that! I want to give a like for the performance and another for that musky mullet! Peace
update: he's cut it!
Love that musky mullet!!
Ohhh that voice!!♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
ASAP rocky was a gem also
Gang of youths
2:56 to 3:03 .......What the eternal fuck?!......that came out of his DNA .....he did that ....live....?....I'm gonna need some time to process it....
My favorite band playing my favorite song by my next favorite band...could this day get any better?
I could listen to Connor sing allllll dayyyy ❤❤❤❤❤❤
This is the sound of a soul in tune
To a savage desire for a soul made new
It's a savage desire for a soul untamed
A definitive cry in the present age
Do I throw my clothes in the fire? Do I throw my hopes in the fire?
Do those things grow in the fire
Or burn just to keep me complying?
Can you still show me the way? Can you still show me a light?
'Cause I was only a kid when I fell and you tossed me aside, hey
What can I do if the fire goes out?
'Cause I don't know if I can live without
I wanna taste and see if the Lord is good
I wanna know if I'm heard and if I'm understood
See the savage desire is some stupid thing
Or if having desire is summoned deep within
Do I throw my clothes in the fire? Do I throw my hopes in the fire?
Do those things grow in the fire
Or burn just to keep me alive?
Can you still show me the way? Can you still show me a light?
'Cause I was only a kid when I fell and you tossed me aside, oh
What can I do if the fire goes out?
'Cause I don't know if I can live without
Lina thank you for commenting the entire lyrics you ducking simp
Thank you!
This is the cover I didn't know I needed.
Such incredible vocals over an already great song.
I am fckn glad this is back on RUclips
God damn I thought their original was brilliant but this took it to another level. Just wow
Wow , literally goosebumps. Please put that on your set list for the tour
Love it that his hat says Brighter Days (atleast that’s what I see) and his shirt says DEAD. That’s the spirit.
I literally come back here like once every few months. Best LaV ever.
Always puts so much passion into their covers
I’ve never felt so much for a band, not until Nothing But Thieves. Feels like my heart’s breaking and soaring at the same time. God, I love them so much
You just described exactly how they make me feel when I listen to them too
Seeing this is back has made my day! I can't wait to see my sons reaction 😊
Typical Thieves, stealing my feels.
Perfect comment.
D!ck, this song GIVES you the feels, it doesn't TAKE them. Stop trying too hard
@@gilbag nothing but thieves.. Band name/pun. Sheesh
Another genius. I get what he was TRYING to do but he got it backwards. A great song GIVES you the feels, it doesn't leave you emotionless. Don't congratulate people for getting shit wrong, that's how we ended up with a President Trump.
@@gilbag see now who's trying too hard? Relax mate.
That cover sounds like magic,the effort of the NBT guys is incredible,they always surprising 💖
All those months have gone by.....and I still get chills...I'm getting old and soft I reckon.....Nup...it's plain musical brilliance....
If I was in that band I'd be constantly worried that my string strumming and drum bashing was good enough to do justice to old mates vocals. Amazing vocal cords yo.
I am absolutely thrilled that this video has been put back up! Buzzing!!!! Can’t wait to see yous in November guys!!!!! ❤
Straight to the Hottest 100 shortlist for this bad boy. So good!
Man! This is the sound of a soul in tune.
00:01 i love it
you can feel the song
every god damn time this masterpiece still gives me goosebumps
Oh my god.. His voice is insanely good.. Literally got goosebumps
So so so stunning. The song sounds like something they would actually have on one of their albums. Looked up the original and it's great as well, though I really appreciate the way this version starts gently with the piano. Such a nice surprise, always glad to hear anything new from them!
Sweet lawd! That’s how you cover a song! Brilliant job
Conor's dance moves are so great too i love these guys sm 😂❤️❤️
I don’t say this lightly but Conor Mason is currently the best male singer in the world. I cannot find anyone that comes even close to him.
Matthew Bellamy from Muse comes close, but falls short. Conor is the best
I was about to say either Matt Bellamy of Muse or Brendon Urie (P!ATD) but another person's reply beat me to it. Haha!
Myles Kennedy is pretty amazing but yeah im conor all the way
Deaf Havana's James is something special
And the lead singer from highly suspect
Yes yes yes. This is how you do a "like a version" . Absolute fire.
Omg this guy, seriously 🤩😍
this always makes me cry
Hits right in the heart
I'm crying. This is so good.
Holy shit! The energy in this performance is incredible. *Shivers down my spine*
Need this on Spotify plzzzzz
Does not get more perfect than this 💕
Hope it makes it into the Hottest 100 of the decade 🤝
I voted for it!
this band keeps topping themselves every single time how is it possible
i’m: thankful
YASSSS!! ANOTHER GANG OF YOUTHS SONG THAT HAS BEEN COVERED AND ITS AMAZING!!!
Never heard of this band. Never heard of this song. But damn. Talk about talent. I'm amazed.
I'm so devastated I didn't see these guys live! Absolutely love everything about their music and style
I'm addicted to this version ❤️
Love you Guys‼️
I keep on coming back to this performance. It really touches my soul in a way I can’t explain. I hope one day this is available on a streaming platform or something because it’s just so so good.
Sometimes a band sounds good only in studio, but I just saw them in Amsterdam and Connors voice was *incredible*. (But I already knew that from this video ❤)
OMG... I AM SO OLD AND ABSOLUTELY IN LOVE WITH THIS BAND!! GREAT SONG, GREAT VOCALS....I LOVE THIS TIGHT BAND!!
jean morris in introduced this band to my mom when i found em and their both of our favorite bands, and my mom picked her god as Jeff Buckley and never thouggt anything could reach that level, until i showed her this band! Seen em once in concert in gonna see em again in a few weeks
you sound like a 40 yr mother
Am 63, and saw them twice in about 7 months. I have to drive for 6 hours (one way) to do that, so that'll give an indication of how much I'm a fan. Love their beautiful noise so much that I even bought/downloaded their last album while travelling in China!
Me too! Just discovered them. First music I’ve heard in a long time that’s moved me.
This is my triple J hottest 100 like a version No 1. Don't judge me!
Mine too !!
Mine three!
Mine four!
Amazing! One of the best covers I’ve heard
Thank you for putting this back up ❤
Face melting. Fuck . Brilliant
The chorus sounds very similar to:
“What we do when the power’s out
What do we do when the lights go down” :)
Omg ... after several years, still give me goosebumps
Geez. Just discovered this today. Insanely good. Wow.
i love how Conor express his feeling while singing
truly amazing, incredible cover goose bumps still wont go down!
What a great cover version of a great song, As always fantastic vocals from Conor, but how good are the rest of the band.... Brilliant, well done NBT
I never heard the original version but I already know which one is my favorite
Wow! Connor you do this song amazing justice - it was simply beautiful! RUclips says it’s had 1.6 million views and I think I probably account for a good hundred thousand of them
Two of my favourite bands ever thank you thank you thank you
this is my favorite video on the internet.
These guys never fail to amaze me. Can't wait for what the future holds for them.
5 years on and they're doing pretty good 🔥
holy shnit this guys vocals have me shook
Amelia Jewell if you havnt, do yourself a favor and check out their music! They vary alot, from rock to ballads, Conor is very Jeff Buckley inspired in his vocals
I thought they had a female lead singer!
I was confused too.....I had to read the comments....love the vocals though
If you want a good example of Conor's voice, watch this: ruclips.net/video/RqfeNCxgf3U/видео.html
They are amazing 🙌
Why is this not on Spotify?? :(
I wish you guys would make a compilation album or downloadable songs of all these covers!
Shaun H they do both

Hope this helps :)
Brainiac03 thank you I'm currently listening
This is out of this world
the 23 ppl who disliked this can fight me
Wooo! It’s finally back 😢❤
This is too good to be real. How talented they are. I love this group
Holy mother of god!!!! Hadn't ever really given these guys much of a thought until seeing this....I cannot pick my jaw up off of the floor now and am absolutely obsessed! AMAZING!
Did not know it was possible to be this talented! Just woooooowwwwww!
Nothing but thieves...literally, they steal songs...how come every cover this guys do, they do it better than the original? This one is pure gold, one of the best cover they ever made, the sound of the keyboard, Joe' s solo, Conor's voice...they keep getting better and better, incredible..
dunno if better than original, but they certainly made it theirs
I personally prefer it! My heart literally raced watching this holy hell!
Vic Vegas They dumped a load on the original!!
Scott Chapman mate what? the guitar in the original makes the song so amazing, especially the intro that’s missing, but still love the cover tho
They made this song their own. Turned up and took it seriously. So good
I’m so glad this is back 😭
Voted for this in jjj hottest 100
Gang of youths6
OIk, been waiting to comment for some time. Fuk me if this isn't the best like version ever, to one of the best like a version ever bands. The emotion is what gets me with music, pure unadulterated emotion. The feeling pulled on this song is just unmistakable. Ps. I'm a massive Tool fan, bring me anything with pure guttural feeling and mojo and I'm in love!
Ps. His timing vocally is perfect, just in the moment. Wow
This should have been in the top 10. This year's hottest 100 was pure shite
I find myself starting every morning at work listening to this song before I even get a cup a coffee ...................................
