  • I asked myself where is my mind,my mind is where Placebo is!

  • Brian is beautiful. His features are distinct and I must say angelic o:)

  • I adore Placebo *_*

  • wow this cover i rely bad

  • Placebo! <3

    Molko!! <3

  • FIGHT CLUB!!!!!!11111oneoneone

  • god damm sexy he is here ;)

  • ... way out in the water see her swimming

  • placebo just in live! and in first line!

  • There is no point in a cover if nothing is really changed from the original. And considering that it is just a straight cover with no real artistic input from Placebo, it can't really be better can it? Because the original is performed by the ARTIST who came up with it. In theory someone could paint a technically superior version of the Mona Lisa, but without injecting any creativity, it could never really be better could it?

  • @Doki66 I relate to what you're saying, but I like both of the versions.

    The original is more deep and kind of sets in a dark mood, and this version is really more vivid and light. So I think that it depends on my mood whether I'll listen to Placebos or The Pixies version.

    Still, the credit for this song should go to The Pixies, and bashing the original version is disgraceful.

  • his voice comes from heaven ,relaxing , dramatic <3

  • in the bottle ??

  • I FUCKING ♥ BRAN MOLKO

  • Prefiro a original! :)

    Apesar de gostar de Placebo....

  • love it! :))

    Thanks ....

  • where is my fucking mind???

  • @sandroboticheli Are you retarded? How can you think this is better than the pixies? I mean i like placebo but come on, saying this version is better than the original is just plain stupidity.

  • who's the guy doing the really high pitched "aaaooooo"s ? it's lovely

  • @VictimDead

  • Place bo is goth.

  • PIXIES > GAY-CEBO

  • wow, they make it more gayer than james blunt version. Fuck! these fag bring injustice to pixies.

  • placebo rulezz

  • I ADORE the original... but I do think Brian's voice really suits this song... could 'hear' him singing this in MY mind before I ever heard this cover for real.

  • best ive herd em sing this song live cheers for posting !

  • crap. wat een shitty band, sorry hoor.

  • waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­ay out in the water see it swimmin

  • pixxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx­xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxies

  • Does anyone remember the name of this music show? I know it was on The BBC (uk) and it was hosted by Dermot O'Leary. Good program, It had a hand full of bands that would play one of their own songs and then one from a band that they were influenced by. Another band covered Black Sabbath's Wizard and i'd like to see that one again.

  • yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaah!!!!!

  • lead singer is horribly annoying

  • The song is great the video makes me kind of dizzy.

  • seriously. this is a great tribute.

  • ich leibe den song einfach nur geilll hamma geil!!!

  • @Mellylemba

    Brian was born in antwerp , which has 4 prominent languages , ranging from french to flemish and even dutch , antwerp is a beautiful city and its only fitting it should be recognised as an influence early in his life but not the sole influence

  • I think I have to respect placebo a bit people. A pretty good tribute to the Pixies

  • I agree.. the music is spot on :) Voice a little whiney though

  • XD P P P P PLACEBO

  • This is my favorite song...

  • i recently started to listen to placebo and think they're great, but how come they do all this stuff in france? are any of the band members from there?

  • I love placebo!!!

  • does anybody else care that this is one of the worst covers theyve EVER fucking heard?!?! o.O...look up the original song...this shit is rediculous

  • why do they wear makeup!?

  • because they can

  • but... It looks AWFUL!

  • maybe, but your oppinion does not bother them at all :)) please don't take this as a rude comment

  • In my opinion it's much better from "The Pixies".

  • I like this version no matter what people say.

    Love Placebo, Brian so hot :)

  • je trouve que placebo la chante mieu pixies!!

  • I wanna eat Brian when he sings this song... am I bad??

  • not bad, not at all.

  • I'm a fan of Placebo, and like Pixies.

    I love the way Placebo sing, but Pixies gives the real feeling of "getting stoned" to the song, WHere is my mind?

  • Damn, he sounds like he's singing on karaoke. Its like the original "Sweet Dreams" then you've got the Marilyn Manson version.

  • pixies is soooooooooooooooo much better....

    absolutli NO emotion...

  • placebo music is cold... the sense is inside lirics.

    placebo ROX

  • well... since they didnt write the lyrics to this one your argument is invalid.

  • they've got nothing on the pixies.

  • never heard this song b4 but i like it!!!!

    Brian looks awesome!!!!! =D so cute

  • he's beautiful..

  • Nice Cover..!!

  • it`s genius...the best song and best version...i love this song

  • the pixies are awesome, but placebo did an amazing cover.

  • did they die

  • yes they did. slowly.

    (?)

  • i luv placebo, their version is much better then the original, to my mind. all their covers are fuckin' awesome.

  • @SANDROBOTICHELI jesus no, Placebo are awsome, but their cover isn't better than the original. Still awsome tho.

  • @SANDROBOTICHELI how is this better than the original come on man dont be silly

  • @tomsummerbluebyrne Simple: Better guitars, better voice.

    I like the orig too, and this song came decades ahead of its time

    But Placebo just do it better

  • ´tha where ir? is lossed..... why? for you¡¡¡

  • where is my mind is way 2 good 4 u kc u useless cunt feck off

  • this is crap. Not even close to pixies

  • so??? just becasue you dont like it it doesent mean that everybody should hate it 2!!!

    Love Placebo!! XD

  • It's a shame that he's gay, ain't it?

  • he's bi

  • Y? Who gives a sh*t about that? Do you *really* take care about his sexuality?

  • I don't care about his sexuality. I was just pointing out that he is infact gay.

  • stefan (bass player) is gay, brian is bi

    know this convo is over, but needed to clear that up.

  • Love you Brian!!!!!!!

    *!*PLACEBO RULEZ*¡*

  • the bassist Stephan i think but im not very sure

  • nah its not stefan... but i have no idea who it is...

    just a back up singer i think

  • they're both playing black les pauls??? fuck emo

  • the singer is playing on a SG

  • you're right, it's hard to notice it at a glance though. Still the SG is a les paul model.

  • Comment removed

  • BRIAN MOLKOV KICKS ASS ON GUTIAR

  • No the SG is red i think

  • Genial!!!

  • omg, lol. when i first read ur comment, i thought it said genital. lmao! hahaha omg, im so sick minded!!! XD

  • @Supacheezy94 hahahahaha omg!

  • Niceeeee!

  • love.........

  • any other guitar players notice that placebo plays the song one entire fret higher than the pixies? including joey santiago's part. Not a bad thing, probably just because the singer sings the song a little different, and this better matches his vocal style. Amazing cover though!

  • great performance, great song and great playlist... good job__ from another placebo fan

  • No way!! no one can top The Pixes singing this! :-)

  • his vocals are to high needs a kurt cobain kind of voice for a cover

  • I can hear it every day...this song is so great.

    I´m a pixies-fan, but i must say the placebo-version is better. :-)

  • Yeah because this guy obviously delivers much more emotion through his vocals than Francis.

  • Love Brian's vocals, especially Kate Bush's "Running Up That Hill" live, fantastic and so emotional.

  • dont act so obnoxious on youtube. when people you dont know start hating you, its not a nice feeling. just a tip.

    lol,

    anyways, i love you!!! :)

    :D

  • hahahah ur stupid. really. your a moron.

  • I love Placeboooooooooooo but to be honest the original version is better :D:D:DD:D anyway I prefer Placebo... hehehehehe

  • um, i have no idea why you have 4 thumbs down on that comment. i agree with you beyond all extent of agreement. lol

  • i love it

  • better than the orginal...my absolut favourite song...i love it

  • never

  • good cover but cant touch the

    pixies.

  • tru dat

  • I love you Brian Molko

  • brian is amaizing...

  • Einai fantastiko.

  • pesta re man!!!!!! apla korifi!!! 5/5!!!

  • 6 sta 5

  • Animals were hiding behind the rock

  • True.

  • I was swimin' in the caribbean

  • when?

  • this song is written by frank black aka black francis aka lead singer of the pixies. the dust brothers did the soundtrack to fight club and the pixies version of the song is playing as the credit card buildings are falling.

  • i love it when people like darknessdedora show their level of intelligence. genius

  • Way out in the water

  • WHERE IS MY MIND?!??

  • And you'll ask yourself

  • and there's nothing in it

  • your head will collapse

  • my brian so fucken good i love him....!!!!!!!!!

  • all to the shed go

  • the original owns the rights!

    the cover proves states and proves you right!!

    Thankyou Brian! Love the Pixies!!

  • When they performed this song live with the lead singer of the pixies, it was fucking awesome.

  • i love this cover

  • nice but not as nice as the originell altoughb great work

  • nice cover by Placebo!!

  • i like this version. perfect band to do a cover of it, brian molko really makes it different but in a nice way. Haha =) 'Course it doesn't beat the original!

  • the most important element of a cover version is the enthusiasm the band have for the original song.

    it's obvious by this performance, placebo fucking love this song.

    fucking sublime.

  • i love this tune

    where is my mind?

    awesome

  • it's our last song..but what a song!! quelle derniere chanson!!

  • this owns so bad, I mean pixies grats for making the tune but placebo the mix of the lead singer's unique voice and the quality of the musicians justs makes this so superior.

    Thanks for the upload :)

  • placebo sings this song with pure emotion and have a great interesting vocal range and the pixies version well..

  • Lets get one thing clear, no cover is 'better' than the original... done.

    Now, i don't particularly like Placebo but this sounds awesome and they are incredible live.

  • sorry, but this version is definitely better than the one of the pixies :)

  • Apology accepted. Now, in musical terms 'better' is not very plausible. In this version, sure the singer has a better vocal range and the instruments sound great... but in my opinion The Pixies have the perfect style for these kind of songs, they are a little off and a little rusty, but they play their hearts out and that's what makes them unique.

  • how can you give them credit for having the better version when its a cover, they had no say in the original song

  • Absolutely awesome! Placebo are f**** great.... Loserbiotch2, I didn`t know The Black Eyed Peas sounded so good live! I`ll see you at their next gig then!

  • love this song

  • geniaaaaL {3

  • placebo is much better live YEEah

  • I don´t understend and I´m feel, feling... this song :-) ten song cítím (czech language) ;-)

  • the camera is tripping me out..

  • i love their version of this song. they are so sexy.

  • Both are really good songs. Really good!

  • Loved it!
