  • What the? When did you show up, erection?

  • the best versions of this song are certainly this one and jamie cullum's

  • wonderful!

  • SO MUCH BETTER THAN THE ORIGINAL OMG! :D

  • Sounds more sensual this way . . . but to be fair Rhianna's is better for dancing. Like Bird and the Bee's version much more, though :)

  • I like rihannas version as well...but this is pretty cool too. PLUR

  • The Song Sounds More Romantic This Way

    ive had this song on repeat for like a year now.:)

  • Comment removed

  • This is so impossible. How something bad can become so wonderfully beautiful I will never be able to tell.

  • sooooooooooo amazing arr ><

  • whats amazing is that they are are an awesome band that happens to have Howard Wolowitz in one of their videos woo!

  • Oh jeez, listening to this song with headphones is just delightful.

  • @ZolRing Yeah I was going down enjoying all of Bird and the Bees songs again. Hut this and went "oh yeah the Rihanna cover Ill skip." Then it hut me all the diffrent places the music comes from and then the melody is so smooths with headphones.

  • @ZolRing it's like your ears are playing tennis!

  • This makes rihanna sound like doody!!

  • @ThrghmyEyeZZ ..doody? lol

  • this is a tutorial: How to turn a shitty cheesy song in an amazing, incredible, perfect song.

  • magical, just magic.

    makes me think of

    being connected to

    just one person swaying.

  • so much better than rhianna's!! I love it!!!!!

  • better than rhiannas!!!

  • This is beautiful! This band is so amazing.....Topanga Canyon produces yet another amazing band.

  • @Gizametalman you just started it moron.

  • @6thLMNT Vote it down! Quickly!

  • and now your comment ruined it. Congratulations, fuckwit.

  • beautiful rendition....

  • This made me giggle. :)

  • they dont even right there own lyrics so its not like you could really call it Rihanna's song. she just sang it first. thats my opinion ;) love this band

  • @Yubertroll by they, i'm reffering to the majority of Pop stars

  • sassier version. I like.

  • Love it!

  • I think this is the sexiest song I've. ever. heard.

  • I love all of the covers but please don't say one is better than the other....Rhianna is the dance version this is different!

  • @duvy1234 arguably, you could do a waltz or a slow dance to this, but agreed, different styles and covers to different genres.

  • wonderful rendition..

    

  • The Bird and the Bee > Rhianna

  • You can't compare the two cause this one isn't shit.

  • @helscythe

    OK lil' guy...maybe by the time you are ready to move out of your parents house you will be able to appreciate something MTV doesn't shove down your throat.

  • @fatnaken By this one I mean The bird and the bee dumbass. The Rihanna one is garbo. Maybe you should learn how to take information from a sentence better? But thanks for the patent lives with parents joke always a classic, lol

  • Beyond Amazing <3

  • That was amazing!!!

  • this version sounds much better than the original song of rihanna~ beautifull! [=

  • @MrsAvocadoDE whoa... so much better

  • you know how you totally believe in something blindly and then someone quiet comes along, says a few words, and then blows away your side of arguement, leaving you all shut up?

    this song does that.

  • is this on any of their albums?

  • jamie mccullum has a really nice cover too

  • @Dave116 --> Absolutely! Glad to see some love for Mr Cullum.

  • @riptide434769

    My preciousssssss!

  • pure bliss. 

  • woowwwwwwww.......

  • They took a song and made it theirs. They put their own unique spin on it . This sounds better than the actual song by Rihanna.

  • this version has so much more soul and it's so much more passionate and emotional <3

  • i love bird and the bee. this is a song both me nd my grandfather would like.  gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous!

  • calming:) im at peace

  • This song just like puts me into a trance of complete relaxation, I love it!

  • This song turned into sexy-charming song.

    The music is better than the original.

  • amazing !!!! i can dance in slow motion right now

  • love this

  • they made the trashy rhianna music and turned it elegant. <3

  • This is amazing..this is why I love music...This is giving me gooebumps

  • This is amazing..this is why I love music...This is giving me gooebumps

  • i actually like this song now! in face i LOVE this song! <3

  • woaahhhhahahaaahhhhhhhhh......­.

    :O

    LOVE this!

  • Wow...

  • I can actually understand the lyrics in this version!

  • this one is less polite

  • This is much better than Rhianna's. These two are sooo talented!

  • @discoducknc Rhianna's version is a dance version so you cannot compare the two.

  • @TheDecadentdragon there's a giant diference between good dance music, and cheesy, dumb, easy listening dance pop music like the one that Rhianna does. Rhianna could do it slow like this....and The Bird and the Bee still doing it better.

  • @discoducknc Duh it's better. Nobody realizes that there people more talented than the ones that are popular.

  • omygosh!..i love this:) 

  • i am in love with The Bird and Bee ♥♥

  • the first song i heard by them was a cover of carol of the bells and now im HOOKED!!!!

  • I HATE RIHANNA

  • This song makes me

    wanna skip

    just

    BECAUSE

  • @Mika4everful be my new friend? :D

  • @LilMissFlapper  Uh Of Course :DD.!! Hahah(:

  • @Mika4everful yay!!!!!!

  • @LilMissFlapper Hahaha

  • "Being" naughty, as opposed to "acting" naughty... I like :)

  • The adobe flash plug in didn't work for 20 people

  • @Psychosativa Genious!

  • I've never listened to Rihanna's version in its entirety... not that it's bad, but maybe cau'se I'm too old and stuck in the past... but I can listen to this ( and a lot of other B&B songs) over and over

  • some artist are able to give a song a second chance to touch the heart

  • thumbs up if you knew this song before rihanna :)

  • this means that Rhianna isn't good music. Just listen this...this is how you do it!

  • wow. it's all in the delivery.  this actually has heart.

  • it sounds like this version is the original and Rihanna's the cover haha XD

  • love it! So much more meaning in it, really more emotive and has a nice beat to top it all off

  • The Bird and the Bee are so fucking amazing.

  • Why isn't this cover on iTunes? The Bird and the Bee are underrated. Like, none of my friends know who they are, and I feel like saying, 'ARE YOU CRAZY?!" This is such a good cover!

  • so who was the first to write this song Rhianna or the bird and the bee, BTW this is better

  • @giulio123 ...Rihanna...this version is the cover

  • @IntegrityNotForSale thanx!, I prefer this version, more meaningful, and lacks the whole night club theme

  • I like Rihanna's song but The Bird and The Bee are just brilliant. They give it and alternative edge that I just can't refuse. Go the Bird and the Bee!!!!!!!! :)

  • WOOOWW !

    Ur so fucking amazing !!!

    pleeasse .. for god sake please COME TO INDONESIAA !

  • This song is very different than Rihana´s... I prefer this version =D

  • It is sooooo annoying to me how amazing bands like this arent as popular just because she might not be as beautiful or "sexy" as people like Rihanna, Britney Spears, Katy Perry, Lady Gaga. I am not dissing recent music, because some is okay, but that is most of the time only because of all the music that covers up their voice and also the editing. The Bird and the Bees lead singers voice is so raw and beautiful, you can really hear it in the songs like I'm into something good. Iluvbirdandthebee!

  • @Eyes4UOnly97 you think those 3 girls are beautiful and a guy? wtf is your problem

    anyway this song is awesome shes got the best voice!

  • @Zomb1eX I DONT think they are, but most people do, just because of all the makeup, etc they wear.

  • @Eyes4UOnly97 hah i think makeup justs makes them even uglyer

  • I definitely prefer this version. It sounds more profound. No offense to Rihanna fans. Just an opinion.

  • I like both versions of this song. this version is amazing!

  • the only thing that i know about rhianna is this song (good mixes came from it) and the fact that she got beat tha fuck up (how that happened, i have no clue since she is amazon like). i'm ok with very limited knowledge about her...enjoying this lil version...spread love people!

  • the voice's amazing, the arrangement (chords, timbre, atmosphere...) pure genius

  • Talk about owning a song.....who is Rihanna again?? tehehehehehe

    Bird & the Bee are amazing!

  • This version owns Rihanna's in the face. And she seriously can't sing. Hearing her voice without music is painful. Her music is just annoyingly catchy like everything else nowadays.

    Bird and the Bee for the win! :D

  • nice

  • Everyone ever listen to Jamie Cullum's cover? Both are really good. :]

  • I really like the beat to this song I could listen to it for hours and hours and it's very soothing.

  • where can i download this, beside itunes?

  • @stinkywhiskeybuttons dirpy.com

  • @stinkywhiskeybuttons off youtube.

  • TBTB took a mundane pop song and made it 100x more soulful and erotic. Nicely done. Makes me wish they'd done an album of transformative covers of Lady Gaga, Britney, and the like rather than an unremarkable album of Hall and Oates songs.

  • I love their cover. It's so them. Breezy, haunting, perfect.

  • wow i lyk this more than rihnana's version, and i actually thot that this was gonna b a train wrecl 0_0

    KEWL! =D

  • Comment removed

  • Agh. I don't hate this song anymore.

  • i really like their take on the song! i didn't think that it was possible but I think they worked it out nicely

  • lol ok guys, its just a 4/4, I did it in my head, its 4/4, slightly swung, but not much.

  • Agreed, both are good versions. It just depends on your tastes at the time to decide which you think is better.

  • Amazing version! It gives such a different feel from the original! Though both are good in their own ways :) So great!

  • SO WELL DONE!

    -in a different way...

    Check out their Hall and Oates covers!

  • i gotta say.. if weren't bcoz Rihanna made ' Don't Stop The Music' popular... i doubted any not so famous band can make the song a hit.. Thanks to her... many people have made it possible and created many cool versions of this song!

  • maybe a slow 2/4 or a swung 4/4

  • This is awesome!

  • wow, i no longer hate this song

  • better than rihanna

  • sounds great.

  • Oh, wow... They took a fun song and made it mean so much more. Beautiful.

  • Love

  • you can't really compare this song to rihanna's version... they're completely different

  • Where can I purchase this song?

  • I love both versions. :3

  • Comment removed

  • Those of us who have some decades of popular music behind us will surely recognize parallels here with the sound and some of the techniques and balances used by the Carpenters of the 1970's. I'm sure they have been some considerable influence on this couple, the Bird and the Bee

  • My friend told me about this like a year ago, and I just remembered to check it out until now. Ugh, How idiotic of me. I've been wasting my gigabytes with Rihanna all this time.

  • @Letheravensoar gigabytes xD lovely

  • hahaha fuck rihanna... love this!! i love the bird and the bee ...freaking genious!

  • @patucha right?

  • @patucha This women respects Rihanna enough to cover the song. But what I'm getting from the comments posted is your mad at Rihanna because your favorite lead singer can't come up with her own lyrics. You guys are fucking idiots

  • @patucha Actually, she does write her own lyrics. She just decided to do a cover this time. There's a difference.

  • @patucha

    Oh the irony....

  • THis is AMAZING!

  • wow the harmonies are great

  • yeah, i love rihanna's upbeatness and i love the poised chill of this one.

  • i don't like rihanna version..i like this one...

  • Gorgeous. What time signature is this?

  • @daysleeper236 4/4 i think? just with lots of syncopation

  • @daysleeper236 Its likely just a simple 4/4 thought in cut time.

  • @daysleeper236 It's 4/4 swing - the swing style is one element that makes it sound so different.

  • @daysleeper236 12/8 or (4/4 swung)

  • It's really good. These guys are going up, and up every second.

  • so lovely

  • Great choice to cover this song. The melody and the singing is just brilliant. It makes me thinking. (:

    Super!

  • Holy effin crap!! This is, just, wonderful!! You get lost in it. Wow....

  • let's escape into the music

  • Amazing!!! the music is so peaceful and melodic. I love both songs...I REALLY don't want them to stop the music.

  • GREAT GREAT GREAT LIKE IT

  • i'm in love.

  • Both versions are good, but this verison has really cool intake on the song.

  • brilliant!

  • If you buy their single/album via the net or cd, most of the money goes to the music label, it's only when you attend their concerts, that's where the artist get most of their money from. I do think artists do "steal"/pinch each other's music ideas, but then again music evolves from one another.

  • Thos made me laugh. I luv it. :)

  • @icanwaitanotherday

    You do know you're watching at a photo right now right? ;-)

  • LOL! Good point! LOL! No, I mean in other videos where they actually move :)

  • They remind me of the Pet Shop Boys sometimes- not really the music, but the way they stand so still sometimes

  • totaly see the comparison!

  • on what record is this song?

  • Guys stfu, both songs are good in their own ways, just because this sounds cool doesnt make the other one shit, they are good BUT for different events

  • @MeMeMaestroll nicely said!

  • I want this on my iPod so bad. ;/

  • @Splitsterrr why don't you get it then? I just downloaded it it's amazing!! Message me if you want it.

  • I've been looking for this for months and I can't get a decent copy. Can anyone help?

  • Wtf...this is the first time I heard this verison of "Don't stop the music", and I gotta say, Rihanna's version sucks.
