  • Editors are an ok band, The National are a superb one so naturally I think the original is far better. But only because it is.......

  • dont really need to cover this song and certainly not like this.

  • Wow, one of my favorite bands covering a song by another one of my favorite songs!? FUCKING BEAST

  • This is a fucking good number.

  • nooooooooooooooooooooooo. no way. any other song but not abel! not working, sorry.

  • much better than the original..

  • @TheGoerd Nothing is better than National

  • Comment removed

  • My minds not right part is bad. Otherwise this is a good cover

  • @basisti94 I reckon that the my minds not right part sounds amazing. It brings out what the song is about, the depth of what the narritive is about. He sounds angry and in pain about something. It's the perfect way to express such a powerful song and Editors have done a wicked job as usual. They have interpreted the song perfectly and brought new depths to this classic. It sounds like Raw emotion.

  • @basisti94 thought the same. but the rest is absolutely epic

  • definitely better than original

  • @gogolplex74 definitely not.

  • @tiim85 I wouldn't agee with you before, but now I definitely do

    Editors are just nice Joy Dividion tribute band

    The national are really special band

  • made my evening

  • Holy Eff!!! Two of my favourite bands!!!!!

  • WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

  • aaaaaaaaaa two of my favorite bands moshed together!! but matt screams betther :)

  • I like it except for the chorus - the "my mind's not right" bit just isn't the same without it being screamed.

  • Wow. I'd seen their name around but I'd never listened to Editors until now. I'm definitely looking into their music, this is an awesome cover

  • @vAbsolution My friend. They are my favourite band. Their best album is their first one called The Back Room. If you haven't heard it, then you need to get thier music in your life. Nobody should live without Editors in their lives. Words cannot describe how awesome and how much I love these guys. This is currently one of my favourite songs from them, even though it's a cover.

  • @dfjnjfn Thanks for the rec man. I got paid today so I went ahead and ordered the CD just now.

  • @vAbsolution awesome!

  • My brain overloaded and imploded.

  • Ah! Editors covering The National! That's just gone and made my life.

    Thank you for posting!

  • The "My Mind's Not Right Part" (Chorus) of this version, I also prefer. Sounds more depressing, which of course suits the song and it's lyrics. It sounds insane. Only Editors can do that. True music. This has been my most listened to Editors song for a while now, and to me that says a lot, because I know all of their released songs to date, the b-sides too. They're my favourite band and this is one of my favourite songs from them and its not even their song. That's amazing.

  • Is not a secret that Editors is a great band, my favourite band in this last 10 years, and i only have 3 years listenig his precious music jaja, is crazy. But, one point that make me love this band is that make perfect covers, oringinals, and the most important is that have the Editors style, they are greeeeeaaaatt. Lov them. Im from colombia and sorry for my bad english.

  • Editors version sound better, its my opinion.

  • @maderock666 I totally agree. I prefer Editors version too. It just sounds more raw and more sorrowful if that makes sense. It's like they made it their own song, which is hard to do with a cover. This could have easily been an Editors song. I really do actually love this version.

  • It's nice to see Editors love The National, but it doesn't come close to the original song.

  • Exceptional !!! : )

  • I have to say I like the editors version 10x more than the original *-* (and I really like the national)

  • @romanloveseditors wow how can you say that! i love The National and Editors but...i mean this is good, but i feel like it cant touch the original version...hmm.

  • this is a remarkable cover..

  • It's a cover from the song Abel by the national

  • wow what the fuck is this!? im guessing a new b-sides off the new album?

  • @robertgreally well what is it then?

  • @jeroenDuijff its Just a Cover they did On Radio 1 Just before the album was released....

  • @robertgreally aahh, i see, its more energetic then most of their covers

  • @robertgreally Do you know where I can download this please? I would so appreciate it. I love both The NAtinal and Editors.
