Still slaps to this day

[@mt2oo8]

Enter Shikari done their take on the song. THEIR take. Because you can't appreciate different musical styles doesn't mean the song is bad, they done a great job honestly.

[@FireFox9702]

Ohgosh, this feels like it could've been on The Spark.

[@max-beckett]

Absolutely love both artists. Love the take Rou and the rest put on this, and Ben's original is also extremely nice on the ears. Could listen to either the same.

[@Razberry52]

Uhhh still their best cover yet, it makes me tingle. Even beats their Don't Speak cover which is impressive hahaha, plus this was one of Rou's best hair moments!

[@emilygibbons]

I love Enter Shikari and Ben Howard, so I LOVE this!!

[@JLM030396]

although this is a cover this has to be one of my favourite songs. It always brightens up my showers

[@xZeerzzz]

Enter Shiakri are outstanding musicians and just because they aren't "your cup of tea" you can't take away how incredible they all are...personally they are my favorite band

[@wtfoxgoingon]

loving the use of a tea spoon!

[@jutiajulia]

THIS WAS AMAZING! Thank you Enter Shikari for always being the best.

[@BeccaLovesTheHiGrade]

I fucking love the rawness of this band.

[@megandonnelly7500]

never thought i would hear a Ben Howard song sound badass- truly impressed!

[@JonnySniper911]

Are we just going to ignore the fact that Chris has an amazing voice at 2:30

[@kto1tam]

I do respect and love both of them - Ben Howard and Enter Shikari. They are talanted performers and songwriters. The cover is so much in the "entershikari" style! And now it would be interesting for me to hear Ben covering ES.

[@KrisHesselmark]

Would love Ben to cover some of ES :D

[@ianjago3634]

Ben howards covers are top tier, just a shame this cover is so dreadful. no disrespect to the band. But it is dreadful. I had to turn it off.

[@0KazuT]

Oh god, this one is so badass, i can't stop listening.

[@ollyhartley7238]

Hahaha, everybody that doesn't know Enter Shikari are saying its shit, whereas Shikari fans love it even though it's so different from the rest of their stuff!

[@KrisHesselmark]

Of cause it's different. It's a cover of a song from Ben Howard? oO

[@eliguaso22]

A good song that they trashed T.T

[@thetiersuk]

The best version I've heard. Different to the original but still on par with it!

[@silvervixen1111]

I can’t believe I’ve never heard this before this is so good I’m in love 💖💖

[@mattsmith8235]

Ditto

[@Sonnyboi5000]

HOW DID THIS NOT MAKE IT ONTO THE LIVE LOUNGE CD

[@ItsJustMeJen]

Love ben and love enter shikari

[@DAxNB]

People don't like different, so a lot of people don't like Enter Shikari... I pity them. I love this.

[@laracook1094]

Dude he's playing the synth pad with a spoon. Awesomeness. Also it sounds amazing I think im in love. : )

[@KazzuaaLv]

Enter Shikari did this really really well, i adore this, i listen to it every day

[@nh6e]

Love Chris' part

[@jazsta123]

I cannot stop listening.

[@inlesinlet]

it's stunning and I love it

[@sedd1234]

I love both artists, both amazing British acts. 8/10 cover.

[@damndemn]

Amazing cover!

[@95djr]

I hate how a lot of people just see the name 'enter shikari' and automatically hate it. I personally love the band and don't get why people can't get over the fact they occasionally shout. Then they'd notice that they are actually incredible musicians.

[@FloraTellsIt]

i am so painfully mad at myself for missing them on radio one wow

[@cazbrownful]

I cannot get enough of this song or this band they get better and better and better

[@DeadOnArrivalWoW]

very good cover, but their will only ever be one perfect man for this song :P

[@mattismedia]

This is absolute gold.

[@mattsmith8235]

Amazing, absolutely Amazing 💯🕺

[@RobbyGRAYY]

Best Live Lounge cover to date.

[@caryselisha]

best live lounge I've heard in ages!

[@laurentyler7146]

These guys are amazing, Lovely band to meet.

[@k1nnay23]

just beautiful!

[@untestedgaming7448]

Everything's better with a touch of Enter Shikari!

[@StupidDamnUsernames]

I actually love this version. One of the best covers of it, in my opinion.

[@JameyBurge]

Man this is just perfect.

[@EmilWidlund]

Didn't like at all first, but I gave it a second chance a few days later and now I can't stop listen to it. You guys nailed it!

[@yeahwhatever40]

To be fair, this is the live lounge ... Where artists put there spin on an original! Great cover in its own way!

[@dominicarare]

THEY ARE SO GREAT!)

[@personperson3629]

i really didn't get why there are so many dislikes because this cover is freaking good ~

[@shikari9416]

Accept this for what it is, accept the original for what it is. There's no reason you can't like both.

[@vandasy]

He will find his percussion sticks in his spoon drawer at home...Easy mistake to make i'm sure

[@Meikoxis]

Awesome.

[@Iliketomattsturbate]

fantastic!

[@affenonkel]

Such a fun cover of an amazing song. :)

[@ellietheelephant6]

this is so good!

[@Bramstep]

The old Enter Shikari made some unique songs, wich not much people liked i think, but i personally loved them :D

[@MissLydiePidie]

I like it!

[@SignalsOverTheAir]

This is surprising from them, not saying that Enter Shikari can only sing one genre of music, but it's always a treat when a artist or band does a song from a different genre and makes it there own and at the same time makes it sound like the original as well.

[@leonhartthuesten9695]

9 years later Shikari proved being one of the most versatile bands out there... And this is still just beauty

[@Thanaseey]

First i saw ben howard, then i saw enter shikari in the titel So it has to be a briliant video what it realy is

[@brunhildevalkyrie9887]

i love it so fucking much. it's amazing

[@rhiannonmayhew8812]

He is so good!!!

[@UsagiKimio]

I love you guys :)

[@alx0r]

Awesome cover

[@howesthename]

This is so fucking good

[@willhayter]

Can tell Chris knew they got it spot on; at the end he put his thumbs up to Rory like "yep, that was perfect"

[@LukeTheGinge]

Okay the xylophone is totally being played with teaspoons

[@davidmichaelminyoungan9052]

It's a glockenspiel

[@esacbw]

i personally like this quite a lot :) and its a good introduction to the sort of synths they'll be using for the shikari sound system, can't wait to see it properly

[@darceyroseee]

Brilliant 4

[@tmartyf3177]

Such a good cover.

[@TheCyberDiamondsTcD]

Big up!!

[@KieranMarangos]

Like this version so much better

[@HollieL]

I actually really like this! Wasn't too sure if I would but yeah I like it!

[@Shi752]

Well i fucking love it, Sounds great!

[@geordie-drywall]

remember these lads breaking onto the shit digital channels POP etc wayyyyyyy back

[@DaleFreeman15]

Why the hate? Personally, i find this pretty awesome.

[@Exoyb]

Ben Howards - Keep Your Head Up cover by Enter Shikari.

[@xzNina]

This is actually pretty good, wow.

[@xGregTv]

dat guitar

[@girlracer88x]

i love ben howard but this is so good!

[@UselessMetaphors]

I love Ben Howard ad I love Enter Shikari, personally I prefer Bens version but I do like how they've made the song their own - and it's amazing in its own right; but Ben's is epic. This is all in my opinion!

[@1dot3]

SPOON

[@user-bb3ru2up6j]

Best tshirt ever, Rou

[@MultiBlackcarrot]

That was unexpected genious

[@benwilson7335]

Loving Rob on the spoons :D

[@virginiabailey7802]

[@TheFriskyProjectZz]

The ESSoundsystem is amazing

[@YorkshireLass97]

Why are people complaining about it Ben Howard's song being ruined? They've put their own twist on it, so sit back, shut up and listen!

[@JonnySniper911]

For a long-time listener of the original's version, I can guest this does not sound as good but I don't think they ruined it, it's two different style that we can't compare. Personnally, I think both are good :)

[@kirstiejb46]

I love how they take an amazing song and make it better haha. Love this band so much

[@olebiscuitbarrel]

i LOVE both shikari and ben howard but i...........dont know how to feel about this.

[@MultiBlackcarrot]

Never judge a book by it's cover

[@MrPhisch]

he most certainly is

[@Adziann]

Playing with spoon... awesome :D

[@jamelaheartmochi]

wow

[@Dana-kc6sk]

Lovely voice but ben howards voice is mesmerising he could sing anything for me.

[@CalciumMoonCheese]

*genius

[@giodhuha6771]

I know Ben Howard from this cover. Honestly.

[@mearcat74]

Not many Bands or Artists make their own music these dayz.......Until now

[@NotDanClarke]

Rob Rolfe is the god of spoon synths

[@higheyesguy]

[@ZBxRaptor92]

See you got it right

[@DNOPLAYSGAMES]

So two things, one they performed this as Shikari Sound System and not as Enter Shikari, and two, hahaha Rob does not look like he's having the best time hahahaha. See you at Reading Shikari.

[@Cathalogi]

nice, Rory's wearing a WOUNDS-tee

[@binzianer]

Shout out to chris marking the key on his piano roll :D
