Just was geekin over the original. Now I'm finding this cover by a band that I've loved for forever! In love....

[@allisona7474]

X2 indeed

[@simondodd9713]

This is better than the original!

[@muhiqu]

[@jasondesmondmiles2086]

thanks for the chuckle.

[@BaddaBigBoom]

Metrooks :-)

[@piercenikolai4551]

a trick: you can watch movies at Kaldrostream. Me and my gf have been using it for watching loads of movies recently.

[@tristanhouston7140]

@Pierce Nikolai definitely, I've been watching on kaldroStream for since november myself :D

[@Roark66]

These guys get me every time. They seem to cover songs that I become obsessed with, this rarely happens. This is one of those songs that I love. I heard the lyrics more clearly through Luke Pritchard's accentuation too...love his voice. These guys also do a great rendition of Kids by MGMT, but you already knew that.

[@houseofFunky]

these guys are the kooks, indie rock iconic band

[@Sarah-gi9cp]

His voice is the sound of my teenage years

[@joe-joevalentine1313]

This just made me so happy that i held my chest for a moment there

[@nutellacrazy4468]

You're up and you'll get down You never running from this town Kinda think you said You'll never get anything better than this 'Cause you're going round in a circle And everyone knows you're trouble 'Cause you read it in a big book And now you're giving me the look look But just remember how we shook shook And all the things we took took This town's the oldest friend of mine Get up and we get down We're always running round this town And to think they said We'd never make anything better than this 'Cause we're always in small circles And everyone thinks we're trouble We didn't read it in the big book And now we're giving you the look look Just remember how we shook shook And all the things we took took This town's the oldest friend of mine

[@cmjcl13]

Metronomy and The Kooks are easily my two favourite bands! How the hell have I only found this song today? This is without a doubt my new favourite song.

[@pinguenella]

The sad thing about covers is that people are going to compare them to the originals instead of enjoying them.

[@theoschafersymons7975]

+Pinguenella Dude this is an amazing cover.

[@pinguenella]

Theo Schafers yeah, I love it, but I just hate how everyone keeps on comparing it to the original.

[@theoschafersymons7975]

i know what you mean.

[@fernandoflores5857]

That´s true, the kooks are a really great band, and their covers are awesome

[@rachelstelac9589]

sad thing is that's cover...

[@twamo2072]

This cover is just perfect !

[@TheSONofSUPERNOVA]

It's a shame that The Sun got this opportunity. Regardless, great band great cover great tune great times :)

[@mildred4115]

Este cover me da vida :)

[@faffieful]

they always cover my fav bands, which makes me love them even moreeee the kooks were my first musical love!! and still, they are m favs along the strypes ;D but the first will always be the first!! random comment, ik but they are so good!

[@TheHughgee]

Usually I'm not that fond of covers but I like ones by the Kooks. They always manage to make an interpretation that is distinctly their own.

[@askjrvbjkrfbvhjbdjf]

the Kooks or "The Bob Dylans" ???

[@nicolasonic9891]

wow!

[@MARCOSCOFFEE]

cmon mate.. do not say that.

[@queenofsaigon3427]

Beautifully played !!

[@MegaElectrorock]

[@curlyflow3720]

Id argue this cover is more in depth than the original. I love the original for the distortion and all over the place vibes but this cover is just so vocally pleasing

[@0905GABY]

[@brendavictoria3843]

ESAAA VOZZZ DE LUKE WOW

[@comodoroljm]

es verdad, the kooks es genial

[@liamhaydn1643]

enjoyed it

[@vinekin]

buen cover...

[@scoby8888]

ya dang right

[@TheTenderhooligan]

Actually, I got that wrong. It isn't a second guitar, there's only one. So there is a rhythm guitar in the original. And the only lines that have been changed in the vocals are 'shook, shook' and 'this town is the oldest friend of mine' - hardly a massive change, especially considering that they themselves are very similar to the original. Watch Ben Howard's version of 'Call Me Maybe' or Everything Everything's 'What's My Name' - that's how to do an imaginative cover.

[@spxcxowlmusic]

buen cover :D

[@Ruzzlimmb]

they just own every song they cover :D

[@jesicacandelaclaudio1976]

yesss :3

[@anaghoghoberidze]

just as amazing as the original

[@julesc4216]

The default speed changed for 1.25 and it don’t sound nothing bad, in 0.75 sounds trippy recommended!

[@nicoleDirtyPictures]

alright thanks for informing me

[@marysteacups]

oh me little heart cant take it:')

[@seesaythinkthings]

Felicidades ;

[@kokecompose]

las 2 versiones son muy buenas

[@JuanPernia]

Coincido contigo, al final termino escuchando más los covers de ellos que los originales

[@rokiiez]

Epic moment *uuu*

[@monstre10videos]

Le The Cover de l'année pour moi :p

[@DavidAlbertoGamez]

se le llama indie rock porque es un subgenero ya definido y por eso se sigue usando.

[@christianbaeza9573]

😍

[@bernystoeckl]

i love you

[@normacruz9634]

Mero bebé

[@JutterMoon]

1:39 I wish i had your dance moves, Luke!
