LYRICS I thought I saw a man brought to life He was warm, he came around like he was dignified He taught me what it was to cry Well you couldn't be that man I adored You don't seem to know, don't seem to care What your heart is for No, I don't know him anymore There's nothin' where we used to lie Conversation has run dry That's what's going on Nothing's fine, I'm torn I'm all out of faith This is how I feel, I'm cold and I am shamed Lying naked on the floor Illusion never changed Into something real Wide awake and I can see the perfect sky is torn You're a little late I'm already torn So I guess the fortune teller's right I should have seen what was there And not some kind of holy light But you crawled beneath my veins and now I don't care, I have no luck I don't miss it all that much There's just so many things That I can't touch, I'm torn I'm all out of faith This is how I feel, I'm cold and I am shamed Lying naked on the floor Illusion never changed Into something real I'm wide awake and I can see the perfect sky is torn You're a little late I'm already torn There's nothing where he used to lie Inspiration has run dry That's what is goin' on Nothin's right, I'm torn I'm all out of faith This is how I feel I'm cold and I am shamed Bound and broken on the floor Illusion never changed Into something real I'm wide awake and I can see the perfect sky is torn You're a little late I'm already torn Torn Torn HV
IMHO this is great. I understand some dont get her sound. She's a bit alt/grunge. Only 2k likes though? She may be considered flat to perfectionists, but I dont think Id like it as much if she sang this in a "pretty" tone. She's freaking torn naked and cold on the floor she's shamed. Its not supposed to be pretty. For that reason I like it more. I think people are disillusioned that all vocalists have to prove they can sing perfectly. Kurt Cobain didnt and he's a freaking legend. This is her personal sound you jags. If you require perfect singing go find some pop or some top 50 nonsense.
Sassy_Radish bravo, well said. She sounds great, it's a different take on the song... her take, not Natalie's, and the little scrunches in her face when she sings certain notes proves she isn't flat or emotionless. I love when she shouts TORN right before the final guitar solo. The drummer is really solid too. Never heard of her but after hearing this I'm gonna check out her original music.
@@SmokeyMcPotProductions I feel this comment on a deep level, I'm also going to check out her original music because of this cover. IT's my first time even hearing of her. She's awesome.
There was a "Punk Goes Pop" cover of this too. Don't remember who did it but it was pretty good. This cover is excellent. Whoever mixed audio nailed it.
This is a great version, but I just want to point out Natalie Imbruglia covered this already. Ednaswap is the original and years before Natalie then Lis Sørensendid it. Post credit where its due.
First of all, Anne Preven from ednaswap wrote this song and it was covered by Lis Sørensen, so before you get all high and mighty maybe check on your information. Second, Anne Preven is a song writer that has written songs for many people. If someone performs a songwriters song, it’s perfectly acceptable to assign it to them. For example: it’s perfectly acceptable to say you are performing a Cindy Lauper song when performing “When You Were Mine”, even Prince would agree.
I just keep coming back to this cover, it's too good. From Alex's vocals to the tone of the guitar. It's just made this a epic rock song
I’ve listened to this like 50 times it’s so good
Among the most underrated covers on like a version
It's terrible. Alex sings flat too often.
@@Doppelfrog We like that
Having come back to watch this at least once a week for a good while now, I want to thank the channel for editing out the long intro 👍
people be complaining that she flat. You are flat. I am flat. Nothing's fine we're torn.
Reading this comment was a riiide ... and I enjoyed every millisecond of it 😆😆😆😆
Why you hit me in them feels Emma? 2020 is hard enough.
preaCH
It’s a sped up version with a singer who give’s her all but doesn’t have the reverb of others . It’s like the lemonheads doing Mrs. Robinson.
Who's saying that? That'd crazy talk.
That whole outro with the slide guitar is wonderful
Listening to this for years!
Fred Weasley killing it with the slide
Fred's dead, that'd be George.
Fred didn't die, he clearly needed an out to go jam with a muggle.
Underrated comment
nah
More like Alex Slayey - nailed it.
Wow I'm not sure about that pun, I'm pretty torn. ;)
haha more like Alex slay me
👏👏👏
Nailed it
Eh
far out man goosebumps. I love this and her singing is frickin neat.
yeah I was like WTF why do I feel like this!
Today was one of those days where you hear a song and just listen to it blaring on repeat again and again!
Should release this as a single, great cover
OMG Yes!!! Torn IS back!!! Calling it my favourite like a version of all year! Smashed it 👍🏻
Tremenda versión!!
This is now my new favourite cover of Torn 🤘
LYRICS
I thought I saw a man brought to life
He was warm, he came around like he was dignified
He taught me what it was to cry
Well you couldn't be that man I adored
You don't seem to know, don't seem to care
What your heart is for
No, I don't know him anymore
There's nothin' where we used to lie
Conversation has run dry
That's what's going on
Nothing's fine, I'm torn
I'm all out of faith
This is how I feel, I'm cold and I am shamed
Lying naked on the floor
Illusion never changed
Into something real
Wide awake and I can see the perfect sky is torn
You're a little late
I'm already torn
So I guess the fortune teller's right
I should have seen what was there
And not some kind of holy light
But you crawled beneath my veins and now
I don't care, I have no luck
I don't miss it all that much
There's just so many things
That I can't touch, I'm torn
I'm all out of faith
This is how I feel, I'm cold and I am shamed
Lying naked on the floor
Illusion never changed
Into something real
I'm wide awake and I can see the perfect sky is torn
You're a little late
I'm already torn
There's nothing where he used to lie
Inspiration has run dry
That's what is goin' on
Nothin's right, I'm torn
I'm all out of faith
This is how I feel
I'm cold and I am shamed
Bound and broken on the floor
Illusion never changed
Into something real
I'm wide awake and I can see the perfect sky is torn
You're a little late
I'm already torn
Torn
Torn HV
What a bloody banger. Can't stop tapping my foot. Extra props to the drummer.
The best cover i ever heard ❤
And I thought you couldn't top Natalie Imbruglia's cover of this song, this version is a masterpiece! Can't stop listening to it.
Holy shit, I am in love with her voice...
Can not press the like button enough times, what a cover. Pumped to see this one live tonight Alex!!
ABSOLUTELY love this!
Wow. Beautiful
dont u love it when you tube sends something "random" to your feed and it kicks ass!!! and that slide guitar lick at the end was epic
Probably the best cover of "Torn" I've ever seen
This is so fuckin grungy and good.
Love this Version
Thinkin bout covering this Cover of the Cover of Torn 😉
I'm calling it now, this will definitely be up there in the top 52 like A versions of 2017!
Someone make a list.
Dude this girl's energy is so unique
She's playing like she's a rockstar who's sold out the MCG and I LOVE IT. HOLY WOW.
Always perform as if it's to a crowd
Ive seen her live a few times, She IS a rockstar

You're so right. This version she provided is great and I dig the rock aspect of it. I feel that Natalie would be proud.
@@SmokeyMcPotProductions The little scrunches in her face are adorable.
Robert Hill did you ever end up checking out her original music?
This and Believe are the best Like A Version. 90s rock 😍
Love this version! 🎀
Like always, she nailed it! Such a great song choice!
Look up the version by Hands Like Houses. I really like Lahey's version and it's tempo but I love HLH's more.
OMG what a version! i came from Second Hand Songs, this is one of the best.
That Mustang tone 💕
Nice Version of Torn i like it very much. Hands up for you and Band!!!!!!!!

this cover blew my mind!!
Amazing
Beautiful Version
She's great
This version is so much fun! Good job!
Love it love it cannot love it enough!!!!
So good
Phil Thornalley, who co-wrote Torn with Ednaswap members Scott Cutler and Anne Preven, produced Natalie’s version.
Play it after a few weeks (like all like a version) sound quality drops DRAMATICALLY.
My only wish would be that they had gone back into one last fast chorus after that beautiful slide solo, just to finish on a bang!
Best cover of this song ever bar gig feeling
YES!
Love this kid!
I love🖤
That was good. Drummer was flawless. Actually, they were all flawless.
This is good. Got this version of Torn on repeat, ❤️
That sounded AWESOME!
WOW! Best cover thus far!
100% in love
Superb
siempre tienes la razón

Alex you always fully indulge in the the moment. It's like a replica but more perfect. Your fucken great 👍
This is a close 2nd to Hands Like Houses cover
Josiah Wilkinson Yeah the HLH cover of torn is awesome
Josiah Wilkinson +1 on the HLH cover
Both are so damn good
Didnt know that HLH covered Torn. Thank You so much 😊
That was great , the ending was crazy 🤘🏻
They did an outstanding job covering this one! Love the guitar solo portion before the stripped chorus

Amazing cover, this was really cool. Gotta check out more of her music
God damn that drum beat is addictive!
There was a "Punk Goes Pop" cover of this too. Don't remember who did it but it was pretty good.
This cover is excellent. Whoever mixed audio nailed it.
both neck deep and hands like houses covered it
@@Regent192 - The cover I am talking about came out WAY before either of those bands formed.
@@Regent192 - The band is "Off By One" and the cover is from 2002.
Amazing cover 👏👏👏
awesome cover
this is really cool Alex Lahey!!!!!
Tingles! This is great!
As a Dane I must say that Alex is pretty good at saying Lis Sørensen 🇩🇰👍 Also love this version 🤩
These are the songs that should be covered.

Well deserving soft rock edge credibility to this song 👍🏻
amazing
wow, cover's up there. So full of style

the best cover ever!!! it bugs me a little that they only complimented the guy tho - she nails it, playing and singing!

@@Worstpersonsingular Bro, no one is high and mighty I am just stating its wrong to say its a Natalie Imbrulia song when it isn't. Doon't be a dick.
I love that Alex's headphones have an asset sticker on them. So public service.
