  • Amazing performance!!!!!!

  • do i have to feel guilty because i like placebo's version more than o'connor's???

  • @Axl1987Rose

    in my opinion is 10 times better

  • fuck it you like em or you dont 

  • his seductive charm is just mind blowing, love every second of his performance.

  • Sinéad O'Connor ♥ Placebo ♥ 4ever

  • GREAT SONG.......GREAT PERFORMER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Brian is sooooooooooo damn Hot and he sing all songs soooooo expressively!!!! He is a big artist!!!!! And everyone which other one says, has no notion and is an stupid idiot!!!!!!!!!!

  • Beautiful. I can't stop playing it!

  • He kinda looks like Sinead O'Conner here!! XD

  • @GreenKitsuneTheOG I have just thought on it LOL

  • Any1 else tired with annoying comments about how Brian is "hot"...?

  • @bwjobiwan

    That's just the way it is.HE IS SO FUCKING HOT!!!!! And if someone liked to say, then leave it, because everyone has that quite to say which he would like!!! If you do not like that, then do not read it!!!!!

  • thumbs up if 69.996 viewer

  • good morning ...

  • bald molko is HOOOOT

  • just about the most emotional cover i have ever heard

  • Этот голос нельзя сравнить вообще ни с каким либо другим, нельзя спутать, его узнаешь из миллиона других голосов. Брайан - это человек, который пришел на этот свет, чтобы заставлять других плакать от его голоса...

  • Horrible! voz interesante, pero la versión original genera algo, esta no.

  • There are so many covers Brian has done, & you would never even know they were if it wasn't said. He has this unique way of placing emotion in exactly the right spot to finish off the picture. It becomes more than a song, more like an Experience.

    check out "Running Up that Hill live on Henry Rollins" you'll see there after 3:10 he owns it :D So Good!

  • nobody can sing like brain.. nobody...

  • how can one sing like that?~~~

  • UNBELIEVABLE performance

  • 3 words.. Best VoiCe Ever

  • This song,his voice.It's magical.I have no words to discribe how I feel while listening this.

  • Beautiful song, beautiful voice, beautiful everything...

  • I must say I don't understand these comparisons between original and cover. This is Placebo's version, I didn't know Sinead's original. This is stunning, it gives goosbumps and Brian is an amazing singer. This song sounds incredibly beautiful here.

  • Magnifique...<3

  • I like Placebo's original work, but I can't stand when Brian decides to take on the works of these larger than life women and reduces them to nasal drip. If you're going to cover Sinead, grow a pair as big as hers first. Don't get me started on Running Up That Hill! Not happenin' for me

  • @madsketcher It is true that these women are larger than life, but I wouldn't label brian's versions as "nasal drip". He is larger than life as well. This version is filled with emotion and I like very much the sound of his beautiful voice. It's a matter of taste, we are not talking about maths, of course.

  • Its very close to the perfect song.......in my mind

  • This song is so beautiful that it hurts. I'm impressed - how this man can sing so female song so stunning and emotionally? I cry every time I listen to it.

  • ive got chills. incredible.

  • @caddieggg absolutely right.. this is one of the gratest songs i have ever heard, those lyrics&Brian's voice makes me shiver when i listen to it ♥

  • holy crap this is amazing.

  • so much emotion in his voice... like always. i love it so much

  • same hair

  • @sbol25 indeed.... :D

  • @sbol25 thought the same thing. love it. hahah

  • I thing, Sinead song is very good, but this is fantastic

  • @sibeling73 Sinead's version is far superior! Plus, she wrote it when she was only 15 and recorded it when she was only 17. This version is only ok, but I am thrilled that they covered it.

  • Much better. (:

  • think it`s better than original.imho

  • sorry voor alles

  • wonderful song...

  • cannot is written together - the same as bullshit...

  • @Itka That does depend in terms of grammar rules that is not clearly set and bullshit is the same as you say.

  • hey mister cameraman, next time I want a close up on that smile! :D

  • Comment removed

  • every time i hear this song,i wanna die.

  • Thanks

  • Won-der-ful <3

  • I love Sinead o'Connor's original version of this song, but this version is also just stunning!

  • awesome song

  • well done cover and bri even looks a bit like sinead in this vid xP

  • One more time...the same silly quarrel!

  • awesome! Brian's voice!!!!

  • love this song with Placebo♥

  • nicht halb so gut wie jackie von sarah o´conner^^

    aber nicht schlecht

  • fu*k you off bitch

  • See the work of sinead!

    Because you do not know how is beatiful her lyrics and voice on this old album 1987 Lion and the cobra (before nothing compares 2u), and Placebo today as we know all of we know more the work of them than Sinead (as is normal).

    I Like both cos Placebo version give us a very pretty feel, but maybe more Sinead cos on her voice she try give us strengh, anger, despair trust, all.

    In Lion and... Troy, Just like said it would be and drnk before the war are my fav.

  • I like both versions... This is more emocional, Sinead´s version is more mystical... But i like this version better, because i am just addicted on Brian´s voice....

  • I totally agree... :)

  • I think this song is much more beautiful with his voice! (I don't say I don't like the other version...)

  • Jackie <3

  • this is a great cover of sinead o connors song, both versions are awsome.

  • My head is full of his beautiful voice... great great GREAT!

  • Oh my...I love this video. That is amazing...

  • i didn't know stef played piano :)

  • go f*ck yourself mpellos you homophobic shit

  • I love this! thankx for posting it:)

    So poignant. Hey-why should he try to sound like anyone else? That would be pointless. Every artist takes a song and gives it his own twist. Don't like Brian? Then do not listen! Or don't you see Placebo's name at the top?! So stupid to whine he doesn't sound like Sinead! lol OMG!

  • No, man, you are a son of a hundred men, and Brian Molko kicks your ass, you little bitch

  • why do you send me a private message?you cunting bitch, I'm gay and I'm proud of it, ok bitch?

  • yeah Cunting bitch!

  • Gay is not a synonym for shitty.

  • You just don't get it ¬_¬

  • I like very much this song and this cover!

    But I like 1000 times more the original one.

    One of my favorite songs of sinead and one of my favorite covers for Placebo. Sinead voice for me is just indcredible, the album of jackie calls Lion and the Cobra and it is my favorite album... great voice, great lyrics. I like "Troy", "Just like you said it would be" and drink before the war for Lion and the Cobra great great lyrics.

  • This version sounds much better than original one..

  • I get goosebumps listening to this song. What a beautiful song, a beautiful version and a beautiful singer.

  • I love this song! Love both the original and this cover ! Brian performed it very beautifully! :)

  • This version is okay, I can feel the emotion he's trying to put in. But for me, the Sinead version gives he goose bumps, beautiful.

    But this is a nice cover, anyhow.

  • I don't know the original but I really enjoy this version.

  • Ok, I've watched the original and I like it. But I have to say that I prefer this cover. I am not able to explain it... Sinead's voice is truly beautiful! But Brian's voice is the one that makes me cry...

  • Sorry...but at 1.50...it went wrong!

  • I actually like Brians version more than Sineads even though she wrote it. But I think it's because I really love brians voice and Placebo in general.

  • This is Brian's version,and should be HIS take on it-not an immitation of her's for God's sake! Idk why some of u want him to sing it just like her-that would be pointless. BTW: If u hate his beautiful voice-why watch it?

  • I think it's beautiful the way he is singing it! Nice to see you here "sis"!

  • You as well,sis'! lol Just now found your comment!

    This was stunning,Id care what anyone says...And,btw: Sinead herself was happy he covered it.

  • this guy's not terrible, but he is too nasal for this song. Give me Sinead any day -- she has way more depth and flow

  • as far as the screaming goes, this should go with the song. come on people listen to the fucking song. there is a loss, what would you do? sing moderately or actually yearn for your lover to come back.

  • they are both great at singing this song, but i must agree there is so much more emotion into the placebo cover.

  • yea I think sinead was ok but I think placebo's version is better they do great covers.

  • am a huge Sinead n Placebo fan, this was always my fave song by Sinead, its her song, n this doesnt compare.

  • I love ... THE ORIGINAL VERSION!!!!

    yeah camm242!

    Leave this song to Sinead O' Connor.

  • the original version is the really beautiful version...the only one that just Sinéad can sing!

  • This is even better than the SWG version!

  • the most beautiful voice of the world...x me...

  • One of the best Placebo's cover is Jakie

  • well though i'm a big fan of placebo, i can understand when somebody says that his voice or this version sucks. you might get used to it - or you just gotta have this "special" taste of music - i dont know how to explain it another way. if somebody hasn't listened to placebo before, it's comprehensible that he doesnt like it at once.

  • I agree. :)

  • I hate the song by Sinead O conner.

    By Placebo it is Great

  • uhg, no! whiny nasal doesnt work for this song at ALL. Sinead's got bigger balls than this one. Massive balls

  • How can ANYONE think Placebo's version of this song is better than Sinead?! At least she can sing without whining and sounding fucking constipated! I feel like my ears are about to start bleeding!!

  • My thoughts exactly!

  • oh god... he 's constipated

  • this is one of his best songs ever!

  • this song was written by sinead o'connor. it's a cover..

  • Of course it is a cover. Placebo`s album with this song in it is named "Covers", after all

  • I am not a fan of covers but Placebo are different... Brian Molko's voice is haunting, so much better than the original!

  • He does have a haunting voice. Horrible, you say... oops... looks like you`re the one with the taste problem :)

  • The "whiny shit" might suit this song here, huh?

  • this is one of his best songs ever!

  • sinead oconnors version is marvelous so is this

  • I Think Anyone Who Insults Brian Molko Is Delusional,

    Hes Cleary Brilliant..

    And Placebo Are A Fantastic Band..

    Learn About Music Before Insulting Talent..

    xxXxx

  • I just keep falling in love with his voice over and over again... :-)

  • I'm probably in minority here, but I like it. Sinead's Jackie is one of the most beautiful songs ever made, and although Placebo (or anyone else) could never do what Sinead has done, it's nevertheless enjoyable.

  • Well I think that this is MARVELOUS!!!

  • hey..you r so tuff on words..but can somebody please upload sineads version or something...and its a fact that brian has major voice..and anybody who dares to say that he has got a crappy voice is just wrong..

    so fuck you

  • people seriously should lay off brian. his voice might not be the average, but as a singer he's much more successful then any of you.

    and look, if you dont like brian/placebo, why are you watching this?????

    youtube has way too much negativity

  • This is the only song of theirs I've been able to listen to since Steve left. Everything else just reminds me of their split. I guess I like this one since it's not actually theirs.

  • All you people who keep pay out Brian, saying he can't sing and all. Glad you have your own opionion, but seriously SHUT THE FUCK UP! This is a great cover and Brian can sing very good. Everyone who keeps saying all that shit are just jealous that they don't even come close to being as good as Brian. If you think Brian is shit. Go die in a well, or keep your opionions to yourself.

  • Get out of the pool! Have you EVER heard Sinead's version??? And you want to say their's is good? It's a complete waste of time cover!!!

  • i don't normally write mean comments but... EW!

  • It's not Sinead's version, but it's actually a pretty good interpretation.

  • Good cover, but sinead's version is a lot better.

  • funny... this wouldn't compare to the original if he could sing a million times better

  • Ugh. Horrible. He sounds like he's holding his nose... Poor Sinead.

  • Don't talk shit. This is one of the best works of Placebo. I adore it.

  • So Sinéad O'Connor is the only one who can play that tune. There are some songs which can't be covered because of the particular feeling they own, and this might be one of those songs.

  • I actually love Placebo and think their covers are pretty good and personal, but in my opinion this one is not of their best works.

  • Leave this song to Sinead O' Connor.

  • I agree w/ tanagra. It is a nice cover but it is not better than Sinead's version. This cover sounds nice but it lacks the highs and lows and the emotional PUNCH, that Sinead brings.

  • I don't think it's better than her version, but I think it's a good cover. I like it.

  • I'm a major Sinead fan , and this is the only record I've ever heard that has been better then her version

  • couldnt agree more sista!!! WHO DO THESE TWOTS THINK THEY ARE???? I looked for sinead and found this twaddle...I can do fooking better.... although, nancy boy is a calassic....

  • criminal...totally shameful...you bastards...

  • oh god, sinead come rescue your song. please.
