My dad died a few years ago and my wife and I were driving and listening to this and had to pull over to get the tears out of my eyes. Brilliant.

This would be such a cool finale to a movie about these young women going through hard times and having a passion for music.

Exposing more people to Scala and Kolacny Bros is one of the many joys Downton Abbey brought the world. This is lovely.

[@gringodoce5788]

I wasnt aware of this. Kindly elaborate. Thank you 😮

[@alsoncole]

@@gringodoce5788 Scala and Kolacny Bros' cover of "Every Breath You Take" was featured on the original Downton Abbey soundtrack and is how many Americans became aware of them, given Downton's enormous popularity in the US. At least, that's how I discovered them and what led me to look up their other music, including "With or Without You," which I think is particularly nice.

[@BeauJames59]

Thumbs up if you cry your eyes out every time you hear this because it's about the most beautiful thing you've ever heard, and maybe you felt this way about someone in your life...

[@rob1977nc]

Scala have the voices of angels. I'm not normally into choral music--but when I hear then, even I have to pause and take it all in. Very powerful group.

[@DerbyshireBunbury]

Simply breathtaking, whether you adore U2 like me (and thus are picky about covers), or wether you can't stand their swagger. These lyrics are U2 at their most emotionally raw, sweetened by the voices of young girls who clearly feel the music.

[@weakshoulders7179]

Hello there, 10 years later. Just a random passerby. Stay safe and stay well.

[@terrafirma5608]

Better than U2 version

Absolutely beautiful. Can’t believe it’s taken me this long to discover this. What a powerful rendition of this classic song.

[@oteloelflein8476]

100% agreed

[@fadly1360]

I love this version... so touchy !

[@MsSexyDiva4Lyfe]

This is so beautiful, just saw a Kobe and Vanessa video that had this song playing and I was crying. Someone was right when they said that they hope they hear this when they enter Heaven..perfect

[@RomeoneC]

Kobe brought me here too... RIP Mamba & Gigi 🙏🏽

Been a U2 Fan all my life and this is incredible, wow.

[@patrickmullin6776]

Gives me the chills every time

[@karlanashh]

This is so beautiful- I cried when i listened to it...

[@leah_bouzgarrou]

this is truly amazing. those harmonies where spot on, sent chills right through my spine! well done everyone!

[@garybalatennis]

Angels singing a timeless masterpiece led by simple piano backdrop. Amazing, riveting, soul touching.

[@joaomaertins2673]

When you love someone but she doesnt love you back is one common intepretation. You cant live with them, but living without them also doesnt seem an option.

[@RoyalOakDude]

Stunning in its simplicity and beauty.

[@corkdave]

These girls were just in Cork for the International Choral Festival. They give choirs a good name. It was wonderful to see their energy and enthusiasm.

[@garrethdavis]

I love how the conductor is so into it

[@danmallin6018]

My face is soaked with tears….so beautiful 🎼

[@willionwang2216]

Whenever I listened to it , I found that I could be really in heaven .

[@snoopdogstwin]

This is one of those times that youtube should add a love button.

[@techas20]

That has got to be one of the saddest, hardest positions to be in in life-not being able to live with or without a person 😞

[@adamehrenzeller]

This song is either about giving yourself to God or a woman... either way it is simply beautiful and emotional and touching

[@KungFUcat10]

It has a hauntingly beautiful sound ..love it

[@user-hg1dt9hp5f]

I like your name kung fu cat!

[@kayleightait7811]

Always come back to this song near Christmas time 😍, reminds me of a cold winters night

[@kristinLB]

I go back to this again and again. It’s so relaxing and beautiful. And I love the guys passion.

[@akaisling]

I thought I was the only one who did that... This truly gives me shivers, absolutely breathtaking...

I love this version even more than the original!

[@antonysears7274]

Me too 😊

[@Kaldhore]

i have been a u2 fan all my life - 25 years (im 39) - this is the most beautiful cover iver ever heard. Nothing brings me to tears - but this did. it was beautiful.

[@lejedidelingo]

Oh my god, this ... this is music, this ... is life

[@jacquelinebachmann9822]

Yes

[@AlinaKoss_tms26]

wow those girls did an excellent job!i had goosebumps all over my body :) simply brilliant

[@paulcrisp9861]

How anybody is not touched by this beautiful haunting song is beyond me. I am just in tears listening. I wish this world could be the same.Oct 2019 and forever folks .❤❤❤❤

[@talkzonewithgarybala2574]

A beautiful rendition by angelic voices, accompanied by piano, singing U2's immortal classic.

[@ciara_shaw]

My school choir did this song and it was beautiful Childrens voices singing it make it soo peaceful

[@thegmanofEAP]

3:06. I get chills every time. One of the most beautiful things I've ever heard.

[@dsummer058]

This is such a marvelous performance. Takes your breath away. So powerful.

[@4115t41r]

This must have been the first time I heard Scala, have now many of their albums. Many years ago, great to know that the choir continues. God bless the girls of the past, now and hopefully the future..

[@MacsMum]

I might be a big girl, but this rendition still brings tears to my eyes.

[@987jasy]

Such a beautiful version of a U2 track

[@williskillebrew9065]

I had this pop up on my media about a month ago. As i observe and listen i notice many are still there today. I would say they are angelic singer's. I wish i could afford to have them at my memorial as my time isnt long on this earth. Bless them all.

[@DownFromtheMountains]

This version sounds like you would hear it in a 24-hour grocery store. Somewhere between 1and 2am. Stores usually play peaceful sounding songs that early in the morning 😊

[@alexandrah.1539]

I heard this version in a movie scene and I had to cry. It's just amazing how beautiful voices and a piano can be! :,(

[@kaifolgering2007]

Alexandra H. - can you remember what movie you saw this in?

[@jjsnax3732]

Kai Folgering I know that it features in the movie Looking For Alibrandi

[@tmoneynyc]

It's extraordinary. Somehow they managed to capture the emotion of the original song and multiply it by infinity...

[@mwj5368]

I really like watching the conductor, all his gestures and expressions, and watching the singers. Wish they would have had a few shots of the pianist too. There's something about watching the miracle of music, the beauty of it happening, a natural wonder, like watching a musician's hands as they play.

[@marcelufer2419]

Der Wahnsinn einmal gehört und nie mehr vergessen, so ergreifend wie die das singen.

[@itzzjerseyy2175]

One of the most spine tingling, goose bump inducing pieces I’ve EVER heard. Incredible

[@grahamb5930]

made me cry and I'm not the crying type

[@lindastanley229]

God I just love this bloody amazing haunting even

[@karysjanssen3446]

This is not a cover. Stop shouting trolls. This is an interpretation of a song that is about women...just listen to those heels leaving the choir. You either get it or you don't. It's brilliant. It's heartbreaking. It's perfect.

[@Biohackthefat]

This makes my soul weep 😢

[@fredslipknot9]

this is incredible, they sing marvelously, well done!!!!!!!!

[@friedmonkey3583]

Best thing I've ever heard. Amazing

[@willionwang2216]

Really touching . I can be deeply moved .

[@U21310]

Beautiful!!!! As a devoted U2 fan, how can you not appreciate such a perfect, hauntingly sang song as this! Well done girls! :) x

[@ayayousif901]

Damn! This is.. This stunning!!

[@MsSkullzone]

Very Earle, this interpretation touches something deep inside me, gives me goosebumps. Beautiful.

[@KungFUcat10]

This song gets better each time I listen to it

[@wassilafritschy2793]

QUE D EMOTIONS J EN AI LES FRISSONS , JE SUIS UNE FAN MERCIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

[@JA-no1qk]

This is by far the best version of this I've heard. I love the humming at the end. It lights my soul on fire

[@drquist]

Rich voices and excellent videography. Very moving rendering.

[@jimmccabe5077]

Totally understand. I lost my dad 15 years ago and my mum last year. So beautiful this song!! I also think with the passing of Sinead O’Connor it makes this type of singing so relevant

[@cork39]

I saw them in Leuven a couple of years ago in a free concert provided by the town council. It was such a privilege. They are so amazing.

[@Katieoc1995]

how could anyone possibly dislike this video? its amazing!

[@user-qy2my8ty2u]

There are stupid people who hate U2

[@kitefreak100]

I am proud of being from Belgium

[@winemeister]

I first heard this song a few years back as background music to an advert for Downton Abbey. It sent me on a day long search into the history of this piece of music. I had never heard it by U2, I am not a fan but I am grateful to Bono for sticking with it. The song had an incredibly difficult birth but the adaptability of the song and the ability of the brothers Stijn and Stephen to create this version for Scala is quite outstanding. Like Pablo's comment below I couldn't believe I didn't know this song once.

wow, what a wonderful version of that great song 🥰

[@ThePoeticEdge]

Great cover, not normally my bag, but this just hits home how wonderful the lyrics are.

[@omr3600]

It is Man 💜

[@captaincorleone7088]

This is used as the music on ITV3's Promo for Downton Abbey and to powerful effect.

[@TonyCostello]

That's what made me look for this 😊

[@nathansmallwood1809]

Is that promotional video on KZbin anywhere?

[@captaincorleone7088]

@@nathansmallwood1809 Yes! I've found it. I was going to upload my recording but ITV have it on their channel and it's much longer than the one used for the ITV3 promo. Enjoy! kzbin.info/www/bejne/q6CnfmSvbbqpZ7s

[@bartosz4591]

Dziewczyny jesteście wspaniałe ! razem z dyrygentem tworzycie coś niesamowitego. Mam ciarki na rękach.

[@Magnificent420]

Beautiful .......I have no words i listen to this at night and it’s so amazing

[@ohlalacesttrop5616]

wow....i almost cried when listened. this should be the best version of the song i have even heard.

[@wallybear7777]

WOW!!! I'm a huge U2 fan, and got to say this is an awesome version. I can see Bono & the boys loving this. Thisbreaks the song to its base, just the piono and lyrics. POWERFULL!! Great job all around

[@amandabarlow5304]

Sang this exact song for choir in high school still one of my favorite performances

[@youkaybeejay]

Saw them in concert in London tonight. Sublime, just sublime!

[@raulng2205]

just beautiful... : )

[@MacsMum]

This gave me goosebumps too. You guys are awesome. What a talented conductor you have!

[@jonnewman6332]

This is one of the most beautiful things I have ever listened to. I know the the bass in the original is such a crux of the song, but.... Thanks Scala.

[@malam70]

an excellent musical arrangement, voices like when are coming from the sky , a song that enters directly into the soul and then,there, you archive it to favorites !

[@johnpaulquinn]

Music for your soul and calming of the mind.

[@radegast1985]

Like angels.

[@YorkGod1]

A Great Emotional Soulful Cover of A Great Song! Brings a tear to my eyes!

[@edbudzynski729]

Soooo beautiful!

[@chris1978nl]

great how this musical leader give his own touch to this great song. And i must say he, and his choir gave a great own interpretation of this timeless song. well done, because its a hard song to do. In my eyes, the piano could gave at the end a 'bit' more volume and a longer solo with climax to end in pianissimo again, for a great ending. but again, this is a very good performance, compliments!

[@felipefontoura7442]

2020 and I'm here

[@RichardFeynmanRules]

What an amazing cover! Stunningly beautiful! So glad I got to hear this...I will look into more of the work of the Scala and Kolacny Brothers...

Goosebumps here too. Used to watch Classic FM hoping they would play again. Now I don't have to.

[@ColetteFizanne]

See the stone set in your eyes See the thorn twist in your side I'll wait for you Sleight of hand and twist of fate On a bed of nails, she makes me wait And I wait without you With or without you With or without you Through the storm, we reach the shore You give it all but I want more And I'm waiting for you With or without you With or without you, ah, ah I can't live With or without you And you give yourself away And you give yourself away And you give And you give And you give yourself away My hands are tied My body bruised, she got me with Nothing to win and Nothing left to lose And you give yourself…

[@jinabrasser9439]

Man, the lyrics cut so deep 😣 I used to hear this song come on the radio when I was a teenager & I’d roll my eyes & switch to another mostly-crap radio station 🙄 But as a middle aged adult, these lyrics take on an entire new meaning 😌🖤

[@notetoafriend]

I cried a river listening to this during Hollyoaks!
