The Rasmus - Play Dead live

[1roiboi]

theres another version out PAIN - play dead look it up its good aswell

[ialeixo84]

This live version is one thousand times better than Bjork's original song.......the studio version is two thousand times better.......

[hafizbrenda]

i donno why some people says this is a bad cover..come on lauri ylonen loves and idolize bjork..

[launerazzurra]

wow it's the first time i hear this song live from TR <3

don't really like the original one from bjork, but i do love TR's version of it... it's different, it's much more rock than the original one.

and the way lauri sings it, it's like he feels this song as his personal, it's sung with his whole heart.

definitely love it <3

and i do agree with XMCFLYEER, it's not easy to cover bjork's songs at all!

[PsichoGetUp]

@launerazzurra yes, I agree(:

[xmcflyeer]

people who's saying Bjork's version is so much better, The Rasmus dosen't mean to sound exactly like her, their doing their own version of this song. Relax people -.-

by the way, in my option this rockssss :) it's not easy to cover a song from Bjork, but they did a good job

[OneVikingHeart]

I had no idea that Lauri is such a bad singer. Awful! Such a shame for sich a great song and artist like Bjork!

[thehumanbirdie]

@OneVikingHeart

A "great artist" your joking right

the only thing Lauri does thats stupid is being a fan of her

by the way its live his voice is almost out

of course if you could sing you'd know this

[iTheRasmus]

@thehumanbirdie

Gotta agree ^^

Bjork is a singer. Lauri is a singer. Although I love Lauri and his voice, Bjork is fine too. But not a great artist.

Yup. But still, you can hardly consider that being stupid ^^ Everyone is a fan of something.

It's live, but still it sounds amazing. It has passion, amazing tune, everything. Well sang live cover.

Yup ^^

[GreenSoul23]

I can't stop to listen this song...

thanx Lintu.. <3

[rasmutaty]

es muy linda su voz!!!!!!

lo amo!!!!!!!!!!1

[CapisViDs]

me gusta mucho the rasmus pero es imposible que lauri o alguien mas en el mundo pueda igualar la bellisima voz de bjork

[chiise]

@CapisViDs Un cover no es para imitar, el canta una cancion que le gusta de Björk como le guste cantarla, por eso es cover. Pero si, en este caso, el original es mejor...

[xXxellenn]

ik wist niet dat ze op pinkpop gestaan hadden dat jaar... anders was ik er zeker weten heen gegaan!

[Zariadoll]

I play dead and stops the hurting...

[nigetakunaru01]

COMO SE LLAMA EL CONCIERTO ?

[Helizbeth]

I love this song! I love Björk!!... I love The rasmus!!! I love this cover!!! xD

[barcavela80]

It's really conceived to be played only bjork... anyways, good attempt... a bit slow, though...

[nanaqwe]

I like this cover much more than the bjork's version

[pashhead]

that is terrible. way to ruin a truely great song.

[loopadda37]

pashhead- gtfo

[J4YM5]

rooney!

[EDANDX]

bjork rules

[ilovemiscosas]

i like rasmus cover and is really sweet he likes her ^^

[crygirl93]

love rasmus....

[psychodelicious85]

Truth is you can convert every melody to sth 'cool'.. but Bjork's version is fanf***tastic and this is.. well.. I don't like it at all but obviously if somebody like's it - it's just the matter of taste :) peace n' love

[chocludordust]

this is just bad. my goodness..

[instantbrother]

1. Never heard of these guys before.

2. Why play a cover in front of so many people? You have a shot at turning on potentially new fans to YOUR music. Why promote someone else's?

3. IF you try to cover Bjork, please know your limits.

4. I am a fan of music but this just sucked. Bjork would destroy this band with just herself and a microphone. They should know this.

5. Singer looks like John C. Reilly with an emo/dork hair cut and minimal talent.

6. Happy New Year!

[TearsForLosers]

Lauri Ylonen is awesome!He's a great vocalist and musician.

[hotelthehookers]

And Jesus Christ Lauri has nothin' to do with emo!!!!!!!!!!!!as instantbrother believes

[TearsForLosers]

LOL. Yes, I agree.^^,

[vaivataFinn]

These are are from Finland, where they ar playing that concert and where they have become a household name. They can play a cover in front of a million Finnish people and not have a problem because they ar so well known there. I outta know, im from there!

[00Wind00]

Sorry...but at least he follows the melody...

[vivatherasmus]

I also like Bjork's Play Dead.

This version has another different kinda feelings by Lauri's performance.

But It needs darker and stronger melody.

Anyway, it's not bad...I love it^^

[NickVonAlan92]

Bjork kicks ass but no reason a band wants to cover it. look at HIM and Wicked Game. HIM might as well claim its rights, and they have it on like 2 EP's and 2 albums. Not that great of a song.

[vaivataFinn]

This is an very great song, although i think Lauri is a great songer, i think he only did alright on the song . It's not an easy song to pull off, it requires alot of deep, dark emotion, and i just don't think Lauri gave it his all. I am sure he could pull it off though, if he tried a little harder.

[xXThreeDaysGrace1Xx]

hmmm lauri with really short hair...dont like it

[DLotet]

omg this sucked, the original is sooo much better, and Pain did a pretty good cover of this song too though.

[MclZvezda]

I dont hate it,but it doesnt compare to Bjorks,No awesome string arrangment,No masterful vocals,no soul.

[GothicMetalRo92]

this is wonderfoul i love lauri *___*

[d3m0n76]

play dead is my bjork's fav song and i don't understand why this cheesy band decides to sing it in this crappy way, please come back singing your shitty songs and leave the REAL MUSIC to the REAL ARTISTS

[plummad]

I love the Rasmus, but the kill this song. The only cover I liked was Pain's version

[DCrow92]

Lauri's singing is pretty OK here compared to other live videos and 5 years ago when I saw them live in Amsterdam xD It sucked pretty bad even though I was a huge fan at the time.

[evanescentgothfairy]

luv this song bjork it's great and the cover it's fine

[cevastian]

so this is a cover, didnt know that lulz

[Ville6Jussi6Jyrki6]

I think it's a wonderful cover.

[sleater84]

wheres the strings at man. Thyve got the beat gd, but thyre missing the two best parts of the song, the strings and bjorks megavoice.

I never understood why people try to cover bjork songs...

[bakamarluxia]

esto se oye muy mal, no se hubiera nisikiera atrevido a hacer un cover de bjork y menos la de play dead...

[blackfeather666]

i love bjork and the rasmus

& i like how both sing it

..♥

[Lrrrrrrrr]

Omg! This suck so bad!

Björk ftw

[albin0rhino]

this is wonderful. I love the cover, and I love Bjork all the same.

[vedondon]

and yes rasmus suck big fucking time and the singer is so totally fuckin gay

[vedondon]

Fucking crap!!!!!!!!!!!!

very arrogant to think he could sing a bjork song

[Eliiz696]

the cover is awesome stop fighting

[meersbrook]

Unadulterated pap! - Stick with the majestic original everybody.

[refrigeradory]

por suerte hay mucha gente que sabe valorar la buena musica que hace the rasmus,

que el cover no sea tan chingon

no significa que TR sea una mierda

u_u solo gente con poco o bajo criterio comentaria eso

yo amo a HIM

pero yo empeze con TR asi que eviten los malos comentarios...

si no les gusta

simplemente no comenten OK n_n

[adrieldx]

ashsss que lo mato >_>

[amazinjosh]

rasmus are shit

[Deathsmaid]

eekk bad siging but still toatally georgous

[alexairlie]

[dexscottxboxlive]

Fuck off

[PekGuo]

Just hear the original version from Bjork.

By saying this, I'm not saying that Rasmus suck, the cover just suck.

[vicko070]

wow!!! q bien canta lauri! the rasmus es awesome !!!

[LintaxLintu]

I love it :D

[xkyousukex]

Bjork is the best

I prefer to take this like a tribute, 'caus the idea of Rasmus... I mean... RASMUS... singing BJORK? Make me wanna trow all out.

Kyo.-

[lilbil79]

the drums in this song rock but everything else is good 2

[Zihirie]

I think it is okay to sing other people's songs (covers) if you say it is made by somebody else...And they said it..Actually I think lots of bands sing covers - and it isn't suppose to sound the same as the original one imo.

Lauri has got a beautiful voice :)

[sw3eet666]

oh f**k off

haven't u heared of covers???

and the cover than bjork original song

[TheRaindrops]

you are right.

[avmus86]

afarc83 ; you are a complete cocksucker

[Victorlovesbenja]

its not even a HIM cover...its a different song from Bjork.. Lauri says it himself in the vid.

[moshkid169]

Well Acually I Never Said It Was A HIM Cover I Said They Fucked Up A Good Song In My Opion And Bjork Did A Good Job On This Song. I Was Saying That I Think HIM's Vertion Is Better Thats All Douche Bag

[Victorlovesbenja]

no need to get butthurt

[Userchecking]

does him did a version of this song too?? :O

[rauha38]

it's not the same play dead..him's and rasmus'...this is bjork's song..and i think it's ok, take it as a tribute to her

[LintaxLintu]

the rasmus kick ass with this song!

lauri's fucking hot!

[franherflo]

omfg!!!!!!

fuck the rasmus!! Kill play dead song!

[lieneke82]

bjork is so much better!!!!

[NikoBustos]

sucked

[27roxxi]

i actually love this. used to be a huge rasmus fan, not so much anymore tbh but this is amazing

[Enquli]

eat shit you, who sayed they can't singing and play this song (or lauris have terrible voice [i cant accept that..])!!! i think the rasmus singing and play this song better than björk! and why u gays whaching that if you don't like rasmus? think about it..

[Cancun187]

Who gives a fuck if you can't accept it, these guys fucked this song up bad; it's no where near as good as the original.

[mymata]

Lauri is a big Björk fan,thats why they're performing this (it sucks, though) Thanks to him I found out Björk and her music

[4n4m4ri4]

I love Aki Hakala =]

el es lindizimooo [ really cute *__* ]

Play dead ! The Rasmus is better than Bjork in this song ;]

[AriesBG]

Aww,so sweet,good cover,LAURI,YOU ARE SO TALANTED AND SO CUTE!!!♥

[swiftiey]

I hate this guys voice.

[osirri]

björk = win

this = meh

[seve29]

I think it sounds good enogh...but then again I don't like Bjork, I think she sucks major balls

[Cancun187]

It sounds good enough for people with shitty taste in music. This cover sucks major balls like you.

[magugreech]

i love lauri and his voice he is ....i don't have words

[camerama]

it sucks! bjork rules!

[Cancun187]

Fuck yeah. This is a shit cover.

[bigdavemr2]

What where they thinking???? how many drugs must they have taken to think...... i know we'll cover bjork! i liked the rasmus up until now and now i wish them to be struck down by a plague of locusts!Harst but fair!

[Cancun187]

LOL

[emzadoodle]

ye gods... people should NOT cover bjork. ever. especially the rasmus.

[comatoselucy]

aw cute cover, but i still find it completely hillarious when anyone tries to cover bjork XD

[juritherasmus]

i love that songs, and i love their version ♥

[keeponfalling]

it must be a miracle to sing on that stage...next to lauri<3

[KelestinDraven]

I think that may have been one of the hottest things I've ever seen.

[SpriteForMewo]

that is disgusting. hilariously disgusting. aww the rasmus are so cute. its like watching a disabled child sing.

[riw89]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

he shoudl start taking singing lessons >_>

he cant even reach björks feet

[freakasoit]

thats true. björk is like one of the best if not the best ^^

[Hizzukka]

I like the original version better but this isn't bad. Not at all. I think Lauri wanted to sound like he was suffering.

[SpriteForMewo]

i sure feel like i've suffered.

[himfanlok]

Gosh, people you shouldn't be that hard on artists..they have the courage to go on even if they're not perfect. Lauri and Bjork are GREAT, both in their own way ;)

[Azreal69]

.....he killed the song seriously...i like his music but bjork's original version is better. he should really stick his own songs

[abihakala]

aaa very nice

[Ttherasmusfin]

i love u guis

[blindu16]

it's a really goood cover....unuseable to see Lauri's and Björk's voices together... both of them has nice ones, in different styles!! and it's a really amazing cover!

[nikkikruspe]

the rasmus rule for ever!

[policekarma]

Oh my god, thats an awful cover; they totally destroyed the song, the voice is soooooo weak and dirty but thats not the worst, the music is. They should only stick to their "music".

[berkdeniz]

lauri sings that song as good as björk..

[Alfarc83]

revolting

[ViolentShadow]

Oh my god...

I'm a the rasmus fan but this goes to hell u_u

this song, by TR, in Live it's bad. Sorry.

[Nocika]

Really amazing song, I love this so much!

The Rasmus rules!

[boiy]

Wow this sucks so bad. The dude don't have the voice to sing this song.

[ezztah]

nonono! this cover SUCKS.

the rasmus sucks,

björk rules!

[shawnhilliard]

This cover is incredibly bad. His voice is weak as shit and the instrumentals are corny. Ugghhh

[bjork4ever]

Nice! <3

[poisonivyprince]

its hot but bjorks ver. is better.

[nyuuXhinata]

that's on pinkpop right:O? i'm going this year:P lauri really does look great;)

[Sinaeero]

yeah u stupid bitch!!! your gross arsehoe yeah HO

[thisstrongheart]

How fucking dare you say that this is a shit song?

Its one of her best, and its a tough category!

And Lauri shithead Ylonen fucking ruined it.

[gtralisfr69]

gross

[ladyvenom86]

word.

[nureczek1]

I LOVE this song! Lauri sing it very well:D He has great voice:))) TR 4ever!!!

[Aphexporn]

Any man who has a hair clip needs shooting. Is he a man ? She ? Oh how im confused.

[jorgetarantino]

they should try to cover big time sensuality =P!

[nikkikruspe]

i fukin love this song! both versions,Björk && the rasmus .x

[karimeee]

i dont like the cover ...

i still prefer the Björk song she's just amazing.. and I love the music from her.... and i guess The Rasmus doesnt save the song like it should do....

=D that was my opinion

[PaulineVHS]

Considering the fact, that Björk is the most fabulous female artist in the world, and it's realle hard to make a good cover of her songs, I think thet did an okay job. But.. Still like the original version way better :)

[analovetr]

iiiiiiiiiii loveeeeee thiiiiiiiiiiiiis song xD

adoro esta cancion xD

es buenaza tenia q ser The Rasmus xD

THE RASMUS THE BEST BAND FOREVER N EVER

[yespleasevicar]

I disagree, this is a rubbish cover, His voice is horrible,they are missing the orchestra line and replace it with a poor led zeppliny riff. And just no to the rasmus in general.

[CinnamonGrrl]

that sounds nothing like Zeppelin (yeah, you spelt it wrong). and of course they don't have the orchestra stuff- it a little beyond their means to lug around a bunch of violins, not to mention it's way too self-indulgent for a rock band to do so.

and vicars are so outdated. go find a regular priest to screw.

[yespleasevicar]

Kk, they have a synth player who could easily duplicate that orchestra line. The riff after the chorus is very ZEPPELIN-y, as in its a dull blues rock riff. Also any band that uses Orchestra samples is self indulgent? Hmm... and calling me outdated, Ur called CinnamonGrrl, the Riot Grrl movement was in the early 90's, hardly current. As u can tell im pretty offended im SO NOT IN this year.

[therasmusfreakyfan]

I like Björk AND The Rasmus really much.. I think they¨ve done a REALLY good job on this coversong.. but anyways, I love The Rasmus more than any other bands :P Nightwish is mt number 2 and HIM is my number 3 *lol

[majestic922]

wow, someone's bitter ^ but it is a good song

[beyerrkluva]

How is stating your opinion being bitter? Care to elaborate?

[beyerrkluva]

The only good song The Rasmus ever performed.

[CinnamonGrrl]

not true. end of.

[beyerrkluva]

These sentences miss a few words.

[CinnamonGrrl]

actually, no.

[yespleasevicar]

It is true. Be better at life

[Janine8]

haha you're joking right? -.-
