Jamelia - Numb (Linkin Park Cover) Radio 1 Live Lounge

[GallopingVampires444]

1 word = WOW

[marko44800]

pretty fucking amazing this to be fair!

[gaurdianninesunshine]

My favorite band in high school and college was Linkin Park. I still think their first album is their best. I don't think they should've changed from where they started.

[LinkinParkKanenite]

@gaurdianninesunshine So they should have continued making the same thing over and over satisfying everybody but themselves?

[mylife42]

Most of the live lounges makes you think why the song wasn't originally made for this artist

[terrorschlumpfine15]

Worst cover ever!

[huggyjohn]

nice........................

[metallicaJee]

wtf...... worst cover ever?

[EmilyMaryBarnes94]

love this

[BaB3B001]

shes gooood!

[marmitehighway]

Harmonies from 2:00 are killer

[MrMichaelMoreau]

leker :)) check my cover out on my profile

[666thesnowman]

brilliant...

[griffitie]

DO not pressurize your self into what society wants you to become express your emotion and spread free form your cocoon open your wings and show your colors of be you not what others want you to be live life to its maximum

[djaz007]

the idea is good...ish....but the mix sounds crappy

[arcane2080]

This video doesn't do her version justice. If you get hold of the Live Lounge CD its 100 times better and I love the Linkin Park version but this one gives me shudders down my spine its so good.

[jacksplat95]

i dont like it :/ i prefer the original i think she kinda wrecked it :S

[MiyuCaeli]

i love this song but the original is a bit better this one also rocks its just its better on the other cuz its the original ^^

[JDBismyworld]

this is amazingggg.

[iluvsoulmusic]

didnt know jamelia could sing like this :O

[EzzieCore]

i quite like linkin park but i quite like this cover... no hates please (:

[heartstrings11x]

the intro instrumental was gorgeous... ><

[TheCBJ2010]

im sorry but this sort of kills the original, its ok but nowhere as good as linkin parks 8)

[tevy78]

wow not bad at all I was a little sacred a rnb singer singing neo metal?? but it's actually very nice

[ks1983ish]

simply haunting !

[EmatzeE]

search EmplyfirE in youtube of course

we cover numb, too

[BaileyGuinea]

I adore this cover

[ashleeDarlin]

I'm sorry but this is fucking fantastic!

[parkour30]

Hawksmere, BuBu93fy, chillax! it's all about the music!

of course you cannot compare metallica et al to Linkin Park, they're different Genres.

It would be like trying to compare the colour red and the flavour of chocolate: it just ain't gonna happen.

[killfourchan]

@parkour30 chocolate is better than red. I also divide by zero and insult chuck norris.

[honeybear09060104]

nicht gut !!!

Linkin Park-- 1000000000000x geiler!!!

[NicNac12321]

This version sucks! totally ruined the song!

[fionnaredhead]

omg this is amazing!!!!

i love linkin park! and this cover is so so good :)

[farbod888]

Screwed with an amazing song

[TheEmeliexx]

i like this :)

[xJustSingWithMex]

i have to admit this really shows off her voice

[2klarity]

i like her version but i don't like how she did the chorus.

[Meadowgirl1901]

I think both versions are equally beautiful, and I get different stories from each. :) Heard this on the radio this morning, had to seek it out.

[marmitehighway]

Quality cover

[adamennis999]

Pathetic

[BuBu93fy]

Linkin Park is the best band ever, whatever if they have now a new style, they are still great :)) love them

and I don't really like this cover ://

[hawksmere]

@BuBu93fy Linkin Park the best band ever?? You need your head testing, have you heard that racket. Best band ever by far is the beatles. And this cover does them no favour. I saw them at Sonisphere a few months ago and out of around 50 acts they were the worst, judged by many! check out Alice in Chains....

[BuBu93fy]

@hawksmere It's my oppinion, if I say that Linkin Park is the best band that I ever heard, its true Beatles are great I love them too, but I like Linkin Park more than the Beatles, so sorry

[hawksmere]

@BuBu93fy I have just noticed you're 17.....so it makes sense.

[BuBu93fy]

@hawksmere look around, there are many people who are older than me and like Linkin Park, so where make it sense that I'm 17? whatever..

[hawksmere]

@BuBu93fy Didn't mean that in an insulting manner. No Offence intended. I'm just saying at 17.......with age comes a change of taste. I mean when you was listening to Teletubbies you didn't actually think in 15 yrs you'll still be rating them?? i'm more than double your age and believe me in the world of Rock there is a lot more that Linkin Park. They are a pedantic oversold plactic band. I think they are ok but not the best. You cannot compare them to Metallica, Iron Maiden, Alice 'n chains...

[FlyForITG]

@hawksmere @BuBu93fy guys guys guys... 30 Seconds to Mars!

Haha i personally hate the Beatles. I'm 15, but i don't reckon they can actually sing. In arguement they write good music, however Linkin Park has more talent.

[hawksmere]

@FlyForITG Beatles were the first band to ever record a video, to a world tour, have over 5 million fans, use b chord distort on the guitar, use feedback etc etc. True they were not the greatest singers but they started a new age of music. If it wasn't for beatles a lot of bands (who are inspired by them) wouldn't be around such as Oasis, Enemy, NIN, Met, Avenge, Muse, Coldplay to name a few. L.P guys are pretty talented (and each to thier own) but are not going to revolutionise music

[FlyForITG]

@hawksmere just because they did things doesn't mean they're great? It's like would you rather drive the original Ford car or a Bugatti Veyron? Would you rather be a passenger in the Wright Brothers model plane or a Boeing 747? Beatles STARTED a trend of music, true, but things get better over time.

[hawksmere]

@FlyForITG i'm afraid over 700,000,000 fans disagree with you. Your example is pretty unrelated to my opinion. The beatles didn't just start trends they created rock together with the Kinks. Have a read...try to spot Linkin Park

today.msnbc.msn.com/id/4595384

[hawksmere]

@FlyForITG Also your examples are not well constructed - planes over boeings etc. Things do not always get better with time. Look at the charts now, Crazy frog makes number one next to spice girls. Lets just agree to dissagree. I'm more then double your age and when i was 17 i had simular views. Old is Gold. The originator cannot be overwhelmed by cosmetice enhancements. That's why the older something becomes the more valuable it becomes. Would you rather by a Combas (2010) or a de vinci (1452)?

[Anneke95]

When I saw the name combined whit the song I was thinking "Whut??!! nooo don't fuck that one up!!!" but when she started singing I was sold... but LP is still better =/

[WoodyIsRHCP]

This is why I love Live Lounge..

Putting a Singer with a song you'd never expect from em.. and people nailing it.

[cboyd104]

completely agree lad

[SunlightSmiling]

It´s very Beautiful...

I found this better than linkin parks..

[kingsnakeMARVIN]

@SunlightSmiling Don't be silly!

[Anneke95]

@SunlightSmiling

I agree it's good... but better than LP that's kinda overrating... xD

[xinvinciblex]

I like the gospel-esque backing vocals. Still prefer Linkin Park though.

[MrUchihaha]

she shuld sing in lion king sounds like she does

[xinvinciblex]

lol

[Animesungirl]

o_o i didnt tought it would actually sound good....i love linkin park...and i love this cover too...weird..:D great voice

[Ditrishe]

[HarmonyHale]

[chiikiinliikiin]

Not quite as good as Linkin Park for me.

[courtneyyblightt]

[alissaa23]

surprisingly good! the beginning is kinda crappy because the mic made ti sound weird. just an issue when singing live but still wonderful

[BDBM4L]

i thought this would be crap.

she still cant top LP because they are the best and no one can do their songs as them. but she didnt fail i can say that.

[JJdingdongJJ]

I may not like Jamelia but I am more than happy to say that she did this awesome song justice! love it x

[robo2k8]

[Nacht5]

[jimmyemosoxxz]

[HomeGrownMalaysian]

[kirkw2007]

[xxrhidarlinxx]

I really like this cover (:

I think it sounds good.

shes got a great voice x

[jamii192]

boo.

[RedClownKnight]

instrumental it sounds good.

But I think the voice is a little to heavy

and the chorus sounds like it's been sung by a robot

[16goingon23]

Wow, now this one wants to make me dance. lol

[koaladuck]

I really thought i would hate this, but i actually don't...However it still isn't as good as the original.

[nicciCurran]

I am all for experimenting, but i hate this.

[ZoeLouiseClarke]

real good cover. respect to Jamelia x

[00veryM]

nice

[damslam]

wow! this is great i like!

[MattNelson18]

she killed it

[gothhellgal]

HOW DARE SHE!!!

At least it shows she likes LP i guess...

[starofkevin]

i like the old one but think this is well better.

[smurfie101]

I prefer the original, but this is still pretty good.

[Titilusitana]

Doing a cover is about experimenting, about opening ones musical mind and trying new things, Its not about staying safe and thinking...maybe they will hate my version, These artists are being adventurous, So stop hating and lets all be a bit more open minded!!

[Ninaki13th]

@Titilusitana Hallelujah love ;) Thats what i think xx

AGREED

[bexyboo25]

every1 has different opinions yh get over it

[xcharlottex2k6x]

haha i like it:)

[doepsarrieswwe]

[xskyfallx]

totally linkin park are fukin ledgends and she is just a freak

[natik111]

[subsufmonru]

[hweuigfjda]

[thuglife84578]

RUINER

[NobGoblin1]

DAMN IT JAMELIA U RUINED IT!!!!!!!

[precaious]

damit jamelia!!! u turned it into a gospel :'[ .... her singings ok but the freakin backup singers ruined it. this song really tires out ur throat when singing it tho =s

[Kenshi2k7]

this is really good because its different to the original! thats the point of live lounge wat would b the point of covering it like the original! it shows an artists creativity by adding their own twist to the song! and jamelia is a great singer!

[xcxjxwx]

god y do ppl take live lounge covers so serious theyre done for fun so stop judging and just enjoy xxx

[SiggySon91]

this is so bad

[darfvader17]

shes ruined the song completely

[Faery87]

if it was a better singer that was singing then it would likely be ok :)

[howellpantz]

this is shocking

[linkinparkmad90]

rubbish cover version linkin parks version is better

[RockStarByNight]

Dude! I never Thought anyhone Could Cover An LP Song And Do it Justice But DAAAAMN! I Was Wrong.
