Future Islands - Last Christmas [Wham! Cover] (Official Audio)

[@kael_mangaming3618]

Please an entire Christmas album asap

[@MatSallehTV]

This is the cover I never knew I needed. One of my favourite bands covering a Christmas classic. I have already added it to my Christmas playlist. Would love to see a video for it. Maybe a dark and dingy Christmas office party with Samuel providing the light in the middle of it with his awesome dancing? Anyway Merry Christmas everyone!!

[@Sasquatch10]

2 hours and 5 minutes from Christmas here in the UK, this is the only Christmas song for me.

[@flipmasterflo]

Wow that sounds like a 1 Man Band playing everything by himself in an empty rotten casino on New Year’s Eve in the late 80s - love it!

[@awabooks9886]

The mild "lounge" vibe is one of the things I really dig about them 😏

and someone trying to snap out a K hole dancing for all they are worth on the flashing disco floor. BANG!

[@TANG3RINE95]

This is an amazing setting to imagine this song being sang in. Merry Christmas/season's greetings x

[@Shake909]

Nailed it @flip !

[@LoveHandle4890]

One of the low key best covers of this timeless holiday classic.

[@boogiedownbotanicat7170]

I love Gerritt’s solo sooooo much! The only thing that would put me over the edge would be a remix of this song with Sam’s low growl saying “Someone SpECiaL”!!

[@Adam-zd2bk]

Apparently Santa sounds like Sam's growl when just talking normally.

[@joancline4844]

Fabulous!!

[@shoe7393]

beautiful

[@LoveHandle4890]

Glad this gem is finally getting the attention it deserves.

[@natalies4375]

Absolutely love this. Thank you Future Islands. Xoxo

[@lucyanayurivilca2810]

lo unico que no sabia que necesitabaaa! lov ittttt !ISLAS DEL FUTURO

[@LoveHandle4890]

They should make an extended version of this, next holiday season tbh. That is my Christmas wish.

[@LegalAutomation]

Dude this is a bop. Nice. Ty Future Islands for this lovely piece.

[@lethargicAilurophile]

My mouth is AGAPE. Took me by complete surprise,, wasn't sure what I was expecting but this far exceeds anything I could have thought of

[@tonyhinojosa666]

Fucking brilliant, this really is the cover we never knew ANYONE needed

[@BryTheNiceGuy]

Future Islands have incredible music taste aside from making incredible music! I want his voice on everything at thus point haha

[@daedevillewrestling]

Of course they would cover my favorite Christmas song. Another excellent song to add to the rest ❤️

[@Lostonsaturn]

Thank you for this! I remember listening to the original song playing at my job back in 2020. I was so sad. Lol This year you guys made it special. My favorite band of years!!! Shine on.

[@consuelorich6586]

Love Future Islands band for a long time now. I really like the way they sing this Christmas song. It's my favorite song to listen to at Christmas time! Thank you!

[@dalsoncarvalho]

OMG I ove this band. great song, so especial!

[@sprouts100]

Heard this on BBC6 music tonight on my way home, it's fantastic

[@DOYOUTHINKIMSPOOKY]

And just like that, I have a cozy sweater on, I’m sipping wine, and looking out a snowy window thinking of a past lover while this spins in the background…..Thanks.

[@awabooks9886]

The perfect comment, coming from YOU, Fox 😏

[@riocolmo5276]

I'll take all of that you got! That was WONDERFUL 😅

[@-coolant4883]

Hated Christmas songs until now..🖤🖤

[@j.munday7913]

buttery smooth, I could have used some growls, but gosh this is just so delightful. I love these guys!

[@davidhanni208]

I legit stumbled upon this bands performance on letterman the other night on KZbin and I’m aggravated to my core I’m just learning about them . I’ve been playing them non stop for about 3 days now . This band is special

[@AString95]

Listen to Fall from Grace

[@art4four836]

They create at the same level on all albums.. it's a rarity in music 🙂

[@funlabsdesignstudio]

Right on *WHAM* Future Islands Style!!! Keep making GREAT music Future Islands! MERRY CHRISTMAS! 🙌🙏💖🤙

[@fashiongirlbrittany5844]

Love this!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@the.ben.johnson]

It was a crime you deleted the previous amazing version of this song from your channel of KZbin... What a strange surprise... R.I.P...

[@johngriffiths859]

Brave man has managed to pull it off

[@jamiemcbrien7394]

New favourite Christmas Song

[@lornasawyer9178]

Wow! I'm so excited to be the first one to hear your song "Last Christmas ". It's wonderful and special!

[@patrickbecker2065]

THIS IS SO GOOD omg

[@rrodolfocruz]

Please do the cover of This Is The Day (The The) 🙏

[@belzequieel]

Every year this bangs in every device i have

[@jcarreon1983jc]

A few days ago I heard Wham!'s version on the radio. It's probably been at least 15, if not 20 years since I have heard Wham!'s version. Then yesterday, 12/10/22, I was listening to the Download 15 on Sirius XMU, and heard Future Islands's remake version. I felt like Wham! was setting me up for Future Islands this whole time.

[@lauralynnfranco8319]

This was on the Download 15? Holy shit. I missed it

[@DaveOasist]

This is amazing from Nottingham uk

[@LoveHandle4890]

Only they can improve this timeless classic.

[@MelodyFox]

Leave it to *Future Islands* to cover Wham's *Last Christmas* ...🤩🥳🤩with Sam singing in his own personal and special way. I would love to see him dance/poke his crazy moves. Lol😅 LPeaceM 💙☮🎵

[@valerierettig1656]

I love this

[@mider-spanman5577]

Beautiful song in any rendition, but this is a somehow even more ethereal/atmospheric version. I feel like I've been visited personally bubthe ghost of Christmas past. 🎄 👻

[@Emester123]

They re-released it omg thank god it’s on Spotify now!

[@SensoriaMaRia]

Wasn't going to do Christmas this year, but I actually felt CHEER. Much needed cheer! Thank you for this early Christmas present. Ps: George would be proud of U.

[@zyonmdc]

love you guys

[@antoniomenva8175]

Yeah brosss. 🙌🏼🙏🏼👏🏼

[@johnkitching2500]

Great cover of my favourite Christmas song

[@juanmartinayonacarrera2190]

[@TheEddieVedder]

Everything sounds better when it's Future Islands

[@awabooks9886]

I dont know if anyone will ever approach Future Island's mix of the maudlin, the beautiful and the lounge. Magnifique! 🧡

[@heinz5050]

Fantastico!!

[@SSSweetPeach]

Come back to the outer banks!!! 🙏

[@helge5000]

Wow! Simplemente hermoso!!!

[@baracuda121]

PLEASE play this at next weeks Southampton U.K. GIG. George Michael is the best mate I never met. GM fan since 1983 ❤

[@TorToroPorco]

I like! Of course George Michael will always be remembered for his silky vocals but Samuel’s slight baritone is also wonderful with his fuller deeper tones. Nice revival of a seasonal classic.

[@SomyFishing]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@thanos_tiro5075]

Awesome work guys!

[@halfordslain7477]

Got to see this live with plenty chest beating and falling over🤣

[@Smechei]

[@tiagoteixeira2414]

[@cian4624]

[@helenamelin6254]

[@joelgonzaleszarate9038]

Te amo viejito 💖🥰

[@bertieman1195]

I’m trying to find the cover that they were using in smiling friends and this kind of sounds like it

[@chriswatson2407]

Is it April 1st?

[@BryTheNiceGuy]

Last Christmas I gave you my heart But the very next day you gave it away This year, to save me from tears I'll give it to someone special Last Christmas I gave you my heart But the very next day you gave it away This year, to save me from tears I'll give it to someone special Once bitten and twice shy I keep my distance, but you still catch my eye Tell me baby, do you recognize me? Well, it's been a year, it doesn't surprise me Happy Christmas, I wrapped it up and sent it With a note saying "I love you", I meant it Now I know what a fool I've been But if you kissed me now, I know you'd fool me again Last Christmas I gave you my heart But the very next day you gave it away This year, to save me from tears I'll give it to someone special Last Christmas I gave you my heart But the very next day you gave it away This year, to save me from tears I'll give it to someone special Ooh Oh, oh, baby A crowded room, friends with tired eyes I'm hiding from you and your soul of ice My God, I thought you were someone to rely on Me? I guess I was a shoulder to cry on A face on a lover with a fire in his heart A man under cover, but you tore me apart Oh, oh now I've found a real love You'll never fool me again Last Christmas I gave you my heart But the very next day you gave it away This year, to save me from tears I'll give it to someone special, special Last Christmas I gave you my heart But the very next day you gave it away This year, to save me from tears I'll give it to someone special Special A face on a lover with a fire in his heart (I gave you mine) A man under cover but you tore him apart Maybe next year I'll give it to someone I'll give it to someone special Special So long

[@ArroganceClause]

This is old right?

[@jayreading1944]

I think the real question is 'will I lose Whamaggedon if I listen to this after December 1st?'

[@pankulka9927]

No! Only the original counts.

[@philbabb6460]

matter-of-fact

[@scottycrayon]

Cha ching

[@Mouse2113]

Is this different to the previous cover? Great nonetheless

[@saiwuat]

Ya se acerca navidad.

[@DismantleHAARP]

Huh

[@pewburrito]

look, its really cool, I like the style, the positivity, the fun, the flow, the instrumentation, but he really made it sound 'off' w/ his range, he should have tried it in a higher key (don't throw tomatoes)
