With a voice like hers, she has a duty to record as many standards and great songs as she can.

[@ravenblanketful]

her voice is too deep for this song mate

[@bonanzajoe]

AWESOME! AWESOME! AWESOME! I'm 82 and heard the Hollies sing this song in 1974. Weyes Blood did them honor. So, thank you.

[@SergioBracali]

She's incredible

[@andyinoregon]

Natalie Mering is in such control of that gorgeous voice, much like The Hollies' Allan Clarke who made this song a global hit in early 1974.

[@michaelfrew1824]

Absolutely amazing!

[@fernywings8922]

Her voice is magical a new favorite hope I can see her in concert

[@Tiebor12]

fell in love with her voice singing " Movies" beautiful all around

[@josecarlos31416]

Es alucinante lo de esta mujer. 😍

[@josecarlos31416]

@@ValverdeRedactor Entonces habrá que ampliar el repertorio de canciones estropeadas. A mí me parece que la mujer controla, sabe lo que hace y lo hace bien. El grupo que le acompaña quizá no esté en su mejor momento, especialmente el guitarrista, que seguro que lo habrá hecho mejor otras veces. Feliz año.

I was looking for Air that I breath, and saw this video in the list so I watched it. Whoever the singer is she's great....think I found a new band to follow 😊

[@bradying807]

Weyes Blood is amazing. You won’t regret getting into her discography.

[@ferrreira]

She's just amazing. I love her.

[@dazzadaddazza]

A favourite song covered by a favourite artist - pure heaven 💌🤟

[@SergioBracali]

The same thing I said when I listened to her finger of "A certain kind"

[@trailrunner919]

One of the most beautiful songs ever written and you guys really nail it...BRAVO!!!

[@jim9520]

They did an excellent job with this song. Very good. I would love to hear her sing many more Hollies song.

[@dbanjoboy7386]

If you listen on headphones, you can hear a couple audience members improvising some beautiful aeolian harp parts 😉

[@iwishiwasananteater.3205]

I think they're replicating the similar bits in the Radiohead's "Creep" which is very similar to this song at times.

[@SergioBracali]

​@@iwishiwasananteater.3205 so similar that they had to add the author in the credits of Creep 😅

[@VictorBerquez]

She is a gem!

[@cristinacurty8299]

so beautifulllll😍

[@serendipish_364]

Thank you, one of the best sets of folk fest 2022

[@Hobs55679]

This is awesome

[@kelbell9312]

Gorgeous. Thank you. I really appreciate this upload. Absolutely ringing with resonance. xx

[@morelhang1336]

thx for sharing🎉

[@davidbentley4032]

Funny, when she was in Manchester in February she said she felt she was 'standing on the shoulders of giants' as so many of her influencers came from the city but I don't think anyone thought she meant The Hollies.

[@dougthomson5544]

Great cover!

[@VIDSTORAGE]

ThiS is THE AIR I NEED

[@danielverrelli590]

She was at folk fest??? Bruh I would've gone in a heartbeat i literally live in Winnipeg

[@DUARTE99]

Nailed it!

[@ElectricLabel]

Its an Albert Hammond song, the Hollies covered it.

[@tiagodossantosrobetti]

❤

[@everboa]

slay

[@johncollins5552]

Love this, always makes me laugh how much of this great song Radiohead ripped off for the big hit Creep!

[@usmuse]

not exactly a rip off since royalties were shared with Hammond

[@marioalday5966]

Albert Hammond does not take any royalties from Radiohead. He just asked to be on the credits, after he found the rip off.

[@josephpiecuch2077]

is that guitar player the guy who toured with angel olsen last summer?

[@cicobuffy]

Mud wrestling and drugs 🎉

[@yakuzahun5305]

Cavia porcellus 🙃

[@waveoflight]

Thats a weird radiohead cover.

[@chrisnicholson2615]

Great version but should of hit the high notes from the get go xx

[@usmuse]

If you can't do it as good or better then don't do it. The phrasing is slop and the guitar is timid.

[@VictorBerquez]

Have to disagree James, always hard to top an original, but I love her phrasing.

[@usmuse]

@@VictorBerquez Any Hollies version still gives me goosebumps but this version makes me sleepy

[@VictorBerquez]

@@usmuse each to their own. I love both, and K.D.Lang's version.

[@johncollins5552]

You expect a woman to sound like a man😂🤔ok. I prefer when AC/DC songs are covered by female singers, maybe it doesn't sound great if AC/DC cover a Weyes Blood song 😂🎸💓

[@usmuse]

@@VictorBerquez Thats interesting to me because Weyes reminds me of Lang. I guess that makes Weis a copycat of a copycat.

[@rickcski592]

Nice attempt, but not a winner.
