I used to follow Blunt everywhere before the 'Your Beautiful' blowup, there's always been a demo version of this circling on the internet, it's great to have a new version.
The expressions on his face are frightening, yet perfect…..It looks like he is trying his hardest to not poop his pants. The end product is amazing. Incredible cover.
he loves this song and loves showing it to ppl who might not know it #pixiesforever .. everyone talks about nirvana, led zep, beatles, queen, the cure .. but pixies never really gets mentioned in the same way, they were SO influential and groundbreaking. so props to james.
I'm a fan of heavy metal and at our wedding my wife and me got 2 tickets for James Blunt. I think it was from a raffle or something. ^^ I wouldn't have bought the tickets by myself, but I must say he's a really good live musician. Also plays piano as good as guitar and his singing sounds live almost like the studio versions. Not the worst concert I was I'd say. 🙂
@@anneominous7172 well he's trying to sing the song all pretty and making it ornate and giving it lots of vibrato in his voice when the song is fundamentally about mental illness and anguish which tells me he's just performing and hasn't thought about what the words mean and what the song is about so he lacks depth and is just all about surface which again is totally contrary to the song which is about being a bit lost and confused but feeling that confusion on a deep level. so that's my interpretation. what's your take?
@@feralmodeit's his style. Have u not heard his music before? All of his music bleeds depth and emotion. He's not trying to sing pretty he's singing as himself. It's a great cover
Wow... Uhm... I'm more a kind of metal guy but I have a special connection to this song and found ... James Blunt... Performing it whit exact the way it should be covered. Amazing voice. So delivers so much passion. I'm baffled...
Say what you want about James Blunt, every performance he puts in so much raw emotion and you can’t help but be captivated whether you like him or not. That’s a talent in itself.
My opinion of him was starkly changed when I met him in a pub in Northampton in 2016(ish). Chatted with me for like two hours about guitars and motorcycles. One of the more down to earth people I've ever met.
Man James blunt is really not appreciated enough. Guy is a seriously great musician with such an epic range. I remember when back to bedlam came out and he was so under valued and now he goes from goodbye my lover to an epic cover to a fuckin tune. Absolute legend
He's a pretty cool guy by all accounts.. Even he said that if he wasn't James Blunt, he would hate James Blunt. It's just because You're Beautiful got SO MUCH radio airtime, it wasn't really his fault.
Listen to ME & DEBOE Cover of this. Where Is My Mind. Amazing!!!! And all their other covers!! Unbelievable!!!!! Besides all their own fantastic songs and releases they've recorded and done themselves.
Great cover 👌 his voice suits the song brilliantly which I didn’t expect. My usual genre is metal/rock/grunge etc . . . . But I have always love James Blunt, great song writer who is only getting better in my opinion! Anyone who can write a song like Monsters seriously knows what they are doing 👌👍 Bravo Mr Blunt
That's incredible! Just wanted to listen to this song I heard long time ago, and suddenly find it as a cover of James Blunt 🫠🫠🫠.. . Don't even know what better than this could happen today...! It's like he read my mind and sang it 🤯
Jakie to piękne, że można śpiewać z taką pasją, w takich emocjach, a jednocześnie słuchacz widzi ile radości to sprawia ARTYŚCIE - przez wielkie A. Ogromna przyjemność ogląć i suchać takich wykonań. Dziękuję.
I'm delighted. After years of torment of my mum overplaying his first two albums, this was a pleasant surprise. Well done, James. I still hate those first two albums, though.
Do you mean the first two albums or his greatest hits? Because he has incredible music on the first two albums. But I get that you don’t really like his greatest hits. They aren’t my favorites either, but listen to No Bravery, a song he wrote about his time as a soldier, serving in the 1999 Kosovo War.
@@ChiLou1 no, nothing like that. Just that she played those two albums to absolute death. I wouldn't know if they were considered greatest hits or not. Sadly, in the meantime since I first posted this, my mum died. So perhaps it's time to dust off those old records.
@@MB-pq7im I didn’t even know Placebo covered it. I just watched it. It was great! But I’m still going with James’s Blunt’s version as my fav. Placebo’s is great though!!! And, I do love Placebo!!!
I remember his set on DirecTV back in 2006 where I first heard this. I was 13 and was so overtaken with his music because of some girl I had met, and I had watched that thing about a thousand times. I’m seeing this after all that time and it’s bringing back a lot of memories, particularly the fact that I still haven’t heard the Pixies’ original all the way through yet😅
I think it’s actually kind of ironic to hate on James Blunt these days. People just do it because that’s what they feel they have to do 😂 He’s a phenomenal artist and conveys emotion in his songs (and covers) that really make me appreciate them as being his and his versions. I absolutely love the bloke, he’s brilliant.
James Blunt and The Pixies were two names I never thought I would say together
I used to follow Blunt everywhere before the 'Your Beautiful' blowup, there's always been a demo version of this circling on the internet, it's great to have a new version.
I thought the same thing.
the world is going crazy
@@hookedonlurefishing well the version you're referring to is the Live Recording from the "Chasing Time: Bedlam Sessions" live album.
@@nealmcbealthenavysealicall794 I'm certain it's from before that, I'm talking 16-18 years ago
I was so afraid to click on this cover but man. This is perfect.
Me too. Glad I did. It's flawless
Well. Instrumentation is lol
Same here
Same
Ele canta essa música há anos. Uns 20 anos 😂
Dude deserves more credit than he gets…he’s just a unique dude and i think i totally dig it!
Ele é o melhor
Well f*ck a duck. James Blunt's stock just sky rocketed in my view. Brilliant performance.
good shit man
Ele é incrível
Ok, now I challenge the Pixies to cover “You’re Beautiful”!!!
The expressions on his face are frightening, yet perfect…..It looks like he is trying his hardest to not poop his pants. The end product is amazing. Incredible cover.
lol sorry i also made a shart joke. didn't see yours. but like. right?
He really likes his A major chords
He looks like he is messing around with lava balls. :D
Thats what excessive of whatever he's on does to ya!
he loves this song and loves showing it to ppl who might not know it #pixiesforever .. everyone talks about nirvana, led zep, beatles, queen, the cure .. but pixies never really gets mentioned in the same way, they were SO influential and groundbreaking. so props to james.
I dont care what people say, James Blunt is so good.
Really really good cover, even though he looks like he’s spotted an armed shooter at points.
Well he’s faced Russian tanks…
Hahahahahahahahaha
That’s hilarious! He really does! 😂😂😂
Yae. Looks terrified!
😂😂😂😂
Man, James Blunt takes me straight to 2006. Such a great voice and all-around talent. This dude should be a much bigger star than he already is.
Takes me way back to the early days. Excellent!
😂

I must have been 20 in 2006 , and it hits me harder.
His voice actually fits the song, wow.
i disagree… he’s really kinda overacting… i think he ruined it…
@@feralmode I disagree with YOU, Sir - quite strongly. Opinions are like that, though, hey.
@@anneominous7172 well he's trying to sing the song all pretty and making it ornate and giving it lots of vibrato in his voice when the song is fundamentally about mental illness and anguish which tells me he's just performing and hasn't thought about what the words mean and what the song is about so he lacks depth and is just all about surface which again is totally contrary to the song which is about being a bit lost and confused but feeling that confusion on a deep level. so that's my interpretation. what's your take?

@@onyxsh0cks456 yes his style doesn't fit this song. he's a knob too.
For being live this sounds like some studio level stuff. It sounds incredible.

Amazing James you got the intensity of this song perfectly.
Jonathan Pie is really covering The Pixies and doing a damn fine James Blunt impression
glad i wasnt the only one who noticed that.
Man James blunt is really not appreciated enough. Guy is a seriously great musician with such an epic range. I remember when back to bedlam came out and he was so under valued and now he goes from goodbye my lover to an epic cover to a fuckin tune. Absolute legend
Brilliant i don't know why he gets slagged off he's good and hilarious on twitter
People are haters
He's a pretty cool guy by all accounts.. Even he said that if he wasn't James Blunt, he would hate James Blunt. It's just because You're Beautiful got SO MUCH radio airtime, it wasn't really his fault.
Because often people who achieve nothing transfer their bitterness onto those who did well.. bless them. They need a hug man
Because he is posh and kind
You watched this and don't get why he's slagged off?
Whatever else this dude has done or will do, he knows good music & he’s paid proper tribute. Pixies forever & I was there in real time.
The best cover of this song that I have ever heard, and there have been a lot of them!
you have to listen the cover of nothing but thieves mate
I'd say Placebo cover better, but this is great.
Kelly clarksons cover up there
The milky chance one is amazing as well.
The Kings of Leon cover is top notch but this is a close 2nd
Wow his voice actually works so well for this track
James really knows how to kick down everyone’s covers with this masterpiece ❤ 2023
Hands down the best cover from this beautiful song I have ever heard
Pretty good version but check out Milky Chance’s
Placebo
CHECK Puddles Pity Party
Listen to ME & DEBOE
Cover of this.
Where Is My Mind.
Amazing!!!! And all their other covers!! Unbelievable!!!!!
Besides all their own fantastic songs and releases they've recorded and done themselves.
This is fantastic! Who’d have thought Blunty could pull this off. 👍
Its Amazing! James Blunt singing this song!! Great bass !! Great chorus!! Great cover!
This is a great rendition of Where is My Mind
The Universal song, of all of us from time to time, and isn’t it comforting? Even you are lost, your just a sentiment away, brothers, sisters.
the crossover we never knew we needed
I remember first hearing a bootleg of this around 15 years ago, so bloody fresh, we need more Blunt!
That guy is super underrated. I wish he was still big as in the mid 2000's.
I love his faces hahahah
Great cover. True artist.
Love him since “the same mistake again”
That was honestly about 100% better than I thought it'd be
James Blunt is very completely. Time passes and he gets better. I love!
An officer and a gentleman, what a cover outstanding!
Has to be one of the best covers Ive heard in a long time - delivers on everything you think it couldn't
Thank you Mr Blunt, nods appreciatively.
This song is so good, can’t hear enough versions of it! :P
He nailed it!
Been listening to it on repeat since I found out about it yesterday
My boy James killed it !
I'm pregnant and my baby has started kicking like crazy with this cover: it's approved!
super good cover
YOOOOO! Didnt expect to see ya here! :D
Yep its great . You like rock/metal genre songs ? Wat you listend to this days mate?
I think kings of Leon did it better, especially their live one
YOU LIKE THE PIXIES?!?!?!
Not a cover. Just a spin. It's the OG with a new lead singer.
That was like. REALLY GOOD. Easily top 10 live covers from the last few years
james blunt has such a blatant recognition value 🙏🙏🙏
He is giving the best of himself! Amazing!
I love this cover. He’s so unique.
Man, watched this a few times, what a sweet performance and JB and the whole crew just killed it!
Thought it was Jonathan Pie singing for a minute there... Mind blew....
Damn, he was turning the dial up to 11 on this one. Great cover.
I have nothing but love for this.
OMG, Blunt...my guilty pleasure....and the Pixies Where is my mind cover. This is seriously up there.
Sung with such emotion xx
Love the original , you can’t beat that. But got to admit. James and the guys nailed this version mate well done , lovely to here from a different ear
, Like that he gets really into the song ,makes it better to watch ,and the boy can sing .Great job !
A Salute To James Blunt , sent from Liverpool England UK 🇬🇧 👏
Awesome James 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
This is my go to, whatever you think of James Blunt, I think he’s awesome- his come backs are the absolute best, but his voice is made for this song!
My most favourite cover by James Blunt. Could have been his own song. Very convincingly interpreted
It’s the best version. Thank you, James! ❤
Great cover 👌 his voice suits the song brilliantly which I didn’t expect.
My usual genre is metal/rock/grunge etc . . . . But I have always love James Blunt, great song writer who is only getting better in my opinion! Anyone who can write a song like Monsters seriously knows what they are doing 👌👍
Bravo Mr Blunt
Decent cover!
I'm growing quite fond of James Blunt
James blunt did an excellent cover of his high-school experience
One of my favorite songs covered by favorite singer
Best version I ever heard. Well done, really an icon in the music industry.
holy F that was good. I love how animated James Blunt is these days when he performs live. That face @0:47 was great. This was incredible.
Hahahah yeah, that face was good and that "la la la" 1:03 too
That's incredible! Just wanted to listen to this song I heard long time ago, and suddenly find it as a cover of James Blunt 🫠🫠🫠.. . Don't even know what better than this could happen today...! It's like he read my mind and sang it 🤯
Wasn't expecting much from this but he nailed it.
Jakie to piękne, że można śpiewać z taką pasją, w takich emocjach, a jednocześnie słuchacz widzi ile radości to sprawia ARTYŚCIE - przez wielkie A. Ogromna
przyjemność ogląć i suchać takich wykonań. Dziękuję.
Zgadzam się. Piękne wykonanie. A piosenki Jamesa poruszają serce ❤
Damn, they are enjoying this cover soo much. Love it!
I love this cover my friend showed it me, has the magic of the original
His voice is great for this song!! Great!!!
Best cover for the best song
Man I forgot about how amazing this song is!
Kenneth Parcell absolutely killed this cover! 🔥
If I had to pick a song to play for the end credits of the world it would be this song
Really great cover this and James as always has a great voice, suits it well.
Feeling the passion.
One of the best Cover i 've ever heard
Brilliantly unexpected cover.
Fantastic version of an all time great!!!
James Blunt forever❤
Great performance, a lot of feelings and a lot of emotions, we saw in James Blunt. All musicians are number 1.
I can’t stop listening to this song!! Sublime 👏🏻😍
Good god…. It’s so magnificent 😢❤
Man, this dude can sing👏
100x better than I could have ever imagined.
I'm delighted. After years of torment of my mum overplaying his first two albums, this was a pleasant surprise. Well done, James. I still hate those first two albums, though.

Did not expect to love this god damn
I laughed when I saw this title show up. Quickly learned: Don't judge a book by its cover. Blunt killed it. Great cover 👍 Pleasantly Surprised!
BEST COVER of this song EVER!!! Loved the original by the Pixies!!! But, James’ just adds something more to it🥰🥰🥰
It literally sounds exactly the same
Personally I think James’ version is better. I think his voice adds more to the song. But that’s just my opinion
Placebo's is even better
@@MB-pq7im I didn’t even know Placebo covered it. I just watched it. It was great! But I’m still going with James’s Blunt’s version as my fav. Placebo’s is great though!!! And, I do love Placebo!!!

Powerful song! It gives me goose pumps every time.
The best thing he ever played 🔥

Wow, this guy can sing!!!! Wonderful cover.
Really good, these guys all take pride in their work.
The Masterpiece cover
I've loved the pixies since early 90s I'm impressed by this cover. Good stuff 👏
This man never old
I think it’s actually kind of ironic to hate on James Blunt these days. People just do it because that’s what they feel they have to do 😂
He’s a phenomenal artist and conveys emotion in his songs (and covers) that really make me appreciate them as being his and his versions. I absolutely love the bloke, he’s brilliant.
Maybe the best cover i've listen Before Incredible for a pop singer
Yet to hear a bad cover of this song. And all of them sound so different. Best song ever imo
Give the man his dues, he covered dancing in the dark really well too.
Colour me surprised
Good to see the old guys together for a jam.
