Within Temptation - Sombody That I Used To Know (Gotye Cover)

LYRICS:
Now and then I think of when we were together
Like when you said you felt so happy you could die
Told myself that you were right for me
But felt so lonely in your company
But that was love and it's an ache I still remember
You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness
Like resignation to the end, always the end
So when we found that we could not make sense
Well you said that we would still be friends
But I'll admit that I was glad it was over
But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough
No, you didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records and then change your number
I guess that I don't need that though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Somebody! Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Somebody! Somebody! Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over
Part of me believing it was always something that I'd done
But I don't wanna live that way
Reading into every word you say
You said that you could let it go
And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody you used to know
But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough
No, you didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records and then change your number
I guess that I don't need that though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Somebody! Now you´re just somebody that I used to know
Somebody! I used to know
Somebody! Now you´re just somebody that I used to know
Somebody! That I used to know
Somebody! That I used to know
Somebody! That I used to know
Somebody! That I used to know..
I do not own anything on this video.
Everything belongs to Within Temptation

[@norbonius]

Gotye Version: You're sad, a bit angry, and you decide to just split and see each other as strangers. Within Temptation Version: You're mostly angry, and you decide to have a "breakup" axe battle in the moonlit winter forest. On horseback.

I LOL'd so hard

[@matrydez6807]

Lol Awsome comment, I love it.

[@demonicangel132007]

I'd watch that.

[@fredflintknock32]

norbonius wish Tarja and Nightwish covered this. Tarja's voice was just heavenly.

[@theepilogue2190]

norbonius LOVE IT!

[@ariannetelles9730]

Ok so I'm just discovering this in 2020 and it is a blessing

[@golden.fire.princess9653]

[@abellabarbie]

Within Temptation has so many great covers!!

[@MrNobody55555]

In some forgotten corner of KZbin. Makes it all that much special when you finally find it. This band deserves more than what they ever received.

[@MrNobody55555]

Right here

[@MrEgofreak]

On the compilation album, the Q music sessions, which was just upgraded from limited availability, by my reckoning.

[@sapphiccyanide7546]

2019 and I've never clicked on a suggested vid so quickly

[@spirit_noise]

Almost the same here. Watch it right now

[@skywise8]

2020 here, and same

[@NostalgicMem0ries]

her voice is divine. no matter what song, her voice + rock makes everything sound way better

[@Vito_-dt1lb]

Just posted 95% of this in Little Lion Man. Sharon's voice and WT's sound make almost any song better than the original one. That's totally awesome, dude!

[@MrEgofreak]

@@Vito_-dt1lb They did a cover of Mumford & Sons "Little Lion Man?"

[@Vito_-dt1lb]

@@MrEgofreak Yes, they did. Just browse "Little Lion Man Within Temptation". Sounds totally different. You could even argue that both versions can't be compared because they're pretty much sang in different styles. WT's cover isn't country-tuned like the original Mumford & Sons, but as a matter of personal taste, i find WT's cover better.

[@MrEgofreak]

@@Vito_-dt1lb Metal is always better! :)

[@jutjubow]

@@Vito_-dt1lb I hate Mumford & Sons music so I am pretty sure the cover is better!

"My favorite band is doing something different and I don't like it they should cater to my tastes instead of playing what they enjoy" -A summary of many of the comments I've seen on these videos

sharon den adel....what a fucking great voice!

[@MrNobody55555]

too bad she's a neo nazi

[@mouserat2545]

Goddamn we need more female metal vocalists.

[@katecooper3410]

Fireflight, Arch Enemy, Epica, Tarja, Evanescence, Nightwish

After Forever, Lacuna Coil

Noora Louhimo from Battle Beast has a very powerful and unique voice. check it out

[@yourlocalsaggirl8702]

i'm crying for how beautiful this song is please what a time to be alive

[@Senythril]

Yeah this is easily the best cover of this song. I have listened to alot covers of this song but holy shit man. This is just so good.

[@ShawnCoxRI]

Indeed.

[@alicecullen429]

totally

[@JeanAndGrey]

This is better than Original, I hate original but this one is damn great!

[@stopislamicconquest5060]

I agree.

[@wolfox7776]

if nothing else it's equal to Walk of the Earth. but that's mostly because they played their version on just one guitar

[@mcmuffinerson]

This cover rocked my socks. And I'm not even wearing socks. It rocked so hard that it crawled into my dirty laundry, found my socks and rocked them o.O

[@AkinariCore57]

yeah take that foot condom off

[@Wizard4169]

Yeah, Within Temptation is just that bad.

[@MrNobody55555]

@@Wizard4169 Ever since they started shilling for the neo nazis ... i despise them

[@Lady_Sleepless]

I'm baffled. I've loved Within Temptation for the longest time, but I hadn't heard these covers. I love this song normally, but WT's version is just amazing. I just know this'll be going on loop now.

[@Alexis24000Px]

Her voice is only pure emotion !

[@dalekcaan99]

I agree, so rich.

[@93parasol]

that's the perfect description

[@haydarhannachi9374]

WT makes their covers more like originals 🤩

[@zombiedude347]

I think the reason that this cover is so much better is how it adds great harmony to a song that had almost no harmony at all.

[@Dylans3Tears]

Harmony isnt necessarily, well... Necessary. I think the original is still fantastic because it's so raw and just this is it. A verse, chorus, bridge, chorus. This ones fantastic and the harmonies are gr8 m8, but the original is also amazing

[@mercurioj7171]

so far the best cover version to listen

[@stanislavdimitrov6327]

fully agree

[@elianazabalamoreno6394]

WHAT VOICE AND WHAT STYLE OF THIS BEAUTIFUL GROUP OF SINGLE ROCK MUSICAL .

[@dmetaxi]

Now I want to listen to/watch this, live! This is an awesome cover, such a great work by them. Respect.

[@luanatristam2955]

A voz dessa mulher è maravilhosa.

[@MarilynXoXo20]

Wow. I'm speechless, in a good way. Sharon sounds so great here. They all do.

[@MaartenKok]

I think all of their covers sound like they could've used just a bit more polish, but if you remember that they popped one of these out every single week, it's pretty impressive in my opinion.

[@oroheartgold]

This song is my new drug

[@dannyscott4405]

I havent heard such amazing covers ever!!!

[@edgyspaceunicorn7215]

One of my favourite songs by one of my favourite bands. Neat.

[@DragonessYT]

This song speaks to me because it applies to both sides of what happened between me and the girl I liked. After she dropped her feelings for me for a girl she was friends with I broke all connection with her because she still wanted to be friends. Even had the gall to tell me there will never be anything I can ever say to change her mind, which really struck deep because she was one of the most kind and considerate people I'd ever met. And even today she's forgotten what she did to me because she still wants to be friends when after not talking to one another for 9 months.

[@Matt7895]

When it really gets going, it's awesome. Everything from 3:00 onwards deserves to be heard LOUD.

[@GurpShurper]

Keeping this alive in 2023! Absolutely incredible

[@casio007]

I must listen it again and again..

[@memphissommers4171]

This could not possibly be any better. Incredible. A masterpiece.

[@DeathOrRock]

It's just that some people can't comprehend that music can be fun and you can play with it and it doesn't have to be dead serious

[@mikepalmer2219]

She can do no wrong. Just amazing.

[@meli7408]

Why did I never heard this ?! Its amazing!

Wowww! Love it!

[@Lily15412]

HOLY SHIIIIIT! Thats awesome

[@estersitta]

Awesome!!!! Sharon makes every song sound better

[@psycophantic]

wow, once this is thought it cant be un-thought. Imagine you were kidnapped and tied to a chair in a basement by a crazy ex. And they were saying the lyrics of the song while digging a hole and swinging a knife around you. Definitely gives the song a darker tone. Especially the "Now your just somebody that I used to know" line..... Damn.

[@seijhik]

+psycophantic Well I guess any song can become scary when your crazy ex has you tied on a chair, in a basement. But I get your point^^

[@michaeldine9157]

+seijhik lmfao

[@DetectiveNyx]

date idea: tie your date to a chair in a basement, swing a knife around, and sing the Sesame Street theme

[@psycophantic]

Best date ever

[@MsRaptorClaw]

are you okay fam

Awesome..
