  • There's no 'old Kings of Leon' or 'new Kings of Leon', there's just Kings of Leon. Some people can be such little dicks these days. Fans of their albums prior to OBTN should appreciate what they do now, otherwise you wouldn't be a true fan. Go figure.

  • god CD:UK and Cat Deeley what a blast from the past! if i watched it that particular week i'd have realised their awesomeness when i should - best band to rise out of the noughties, end of

  • it's not about them being better, they were just a lot more enjoyable back then. Sounds a lot more fun.

  • hahah THE kings of leon

  • I found this band 5 years late!

  • HO MI DO TEH NO NAS

    HIS HELF TO REKATAFAI AI

    HE GAH HI BLA BEL BUHL

    ANAREMAU, FAYAHIZAI!!!!

  • Holy mother, i think Jared Followill played the Cliff Burton in this video. Awesome perfomance.

  • If Leonardo DiCaprio were in a band, it would be KOL.

  • That's right pop princesses, someone CAN actually sing live.

  • old kol or new kol.........its all good either way!

  • Use somebody is a great song and their performance on Live on Later was incredible. Love the background singing

  • wasnt a big fan of this band but id gladly see them back.....

  • Why the hell does every KOL video involve Old KOL vs New KOL, they are all amazing and if you are a fan you would like every single one of their songs, except maybe sex on fire or use somebody

  • @Pagra101 No if you are a real fan, you would like every song INCLUDING sex on fire and use somebody. Just because the radio got a hold of them doesn't make them any worse. They're still awesome songs sung by an awesome band.

  • @mnhockeyfan34 i agree, but everytime i hear the songs it reminds of fake KOL fans

  • @Pagra101 Hey I can understand that. I wouldn't call them "fake" though...they just don't really know what they're missing

  • @Pagra101 Yea since you decide what makes a real or fake KOL fan. It doesn't matter which album you think is better. As long as you love KOL, you're cool with me. OBTN is great because of Cold Desert, Manhattan, and Notion. Don't assume ppl that like that album only like it because of Use Somebody and Sex on Fire

  • you guys all talking about whats changed....its not the look, its not the hair, its not that they hit the big time, its the drugs!! They stopped snorting so much.

  • @littlepickle90 FINALLY! Someone who actually knows!

  • I was talking to the self professed "biggest KOL fan in the world" the other day, he was totally unaware of their first three albums... as far as he was aware they formed in 2008.. their transition from grungy southern rock to "pop rock" has left so many amazing songs virtually lost.. shame...

  • 1:26 É o Dog!

  • where's the pit? lol

  • we want that long hair back, it's just SO sexy I can't describe it with words, it crawls up my spine, put tears in my eyes and makes me wanna come; so much good stuff lost with the new KOL, shame

  • i wanna hear KOL sing there old music. i've only heard it when they were younger.

  • tsssssssssssssssss 

  • new KoL is good as old.

  • awh...KOL before they stupid sell out cunts...tunes like this and 'Molly's chamber' are fucking brilliant....sadly their wankerish new stuff like 'This sex is on fire' is boring, sell-out, mainstream dribble....it's sad to see a great band like KOL go down the toilet

  • @danceflooroddities so because they're more famous and they changed there songs after years of playing they suck? isnt that what the Beatles did....

  • Lol x can't believe they wer on this childrens programe x crazy x he he hee x

  • God i love Jared when i goes crazy!

  • there is no better way to spend 2 minutes

  • playback :( i've never thought that about kings of leon :'(

  • @Accordish13 why do you think its playback?

  • @guitarluc1234 it is so similar to the album, and you can hear it on the guitars... try to hear some other vids of four kicks, and then you can tell that this is playback :(

  • Oh christ they were even on CD:UK

  • 3 Best bands of this century

    Kings Of Leon

    Foo Fighters

    Red Hot Chili Peppers

  • My music better than your music. Doi!

    Fucking dummies the lot of you.

  • ye kol the best band ever lost out on tickets for next week at sheffield. will av to wait now al b 45 when I can get to c them.Nathan 14yrs my junior but I think he is hot!!!!!!!!!!!

  • People like james1954May are lifeless, depressed, middle aged useless numbers who have nothing better to do but try ranting and portray negative input upon new bands that don't fit his high-standard-guide lines. This dude is a useless tool who's just trying to feel good about ripping on bands he knows nothing about. You can stay stuck in the 70's bud, don't bring your lame ass remarks and negative jib jab around here. No one cares what you think. KOL destroys!

  • @woodzyy WOW what a way to put it.

  • 13 people are incredibly stupid

    except James1954 may, who is obviously a homo

  • If this band had existed in 1970 they would never have made it out of their garage or off their block. Why support shite like this? I listen to this and it truly sounds like some kids after high school playing in their garage. And you morons have made them millionaires. Don't forget to buy merch off their website cuz these descendants of Hendrix and Creme take credit cards.

  • @James1954May classic rock is awesome. but hey hendrix, morrison, there all dead man, listening to the same old shit gets old. this band just keeps coming up with shit i want to keep listenin to. so the 70's was 30 years ago, give up already.

  • @Bradtabs924 Bright dead men. This band has never had their day in the sun and are walking dead. What is preventing you from seeng how lacking in emotion and innovation this band is. Enjoy it but don't pretend there's anything happening here. It's all smoke, mirrors and marketing an image because there certainly is no music to market.

  • @James1954May you are entitled to your own opinion. but please speak for yourself. try adding "i think" to your statements. like "i think this band never had their day..", "i feel they are lacking in emotion..", "i believe they have no music to market.." Be accountable for what you say and be man enough to own your words. not everyone thinks like you my friend. to each his own, and that includes music..peace..

  • @tuttkhan55 Why should I when i have you to add beginnings to my sentences? By the way, saw you at the Cairo Museum this year. Still here. They ride donkeys in the suburbs of Cairo while talking on cell phones. The kids here like "cool" music. The adults just like good music without the window dressing, fake rage, phony flight from middle classness, etc.

  • @James1954May Again, speak for yourself my man...good music is good music for yourself and no one else's. Other people don't need to enjoy it as long as You do. And let's be adults and leave it at that. Good day!

  • @tuttkhan55 Yes, I am aware that in the new politically correct world which actually believes in cultural relativism, that there is no good and bad music. I'm assuming you have your larder stocked with Bread and The Carpenters. We wouldn't want to leave anyone behind would we pal?

  • OMG PEOPLE SERIOUSLY!!!

    Everywhere I go on youtube I see the same comments

    "Ohhh kings of leon are too popular now"

    "Ohhh their too mainstream"

    Thing is you can never be too much of anything these guys evolve gracefully and brilliantly and in my opinion their 5th album is their most professional one yet!

    So please people shut up, enjoy the music because you still go and see them live anyway and just let it go.

  • For this mp3 go to everymp3rip doht cohm.

  • wtf! KOL on CD:UK! Haha! Those teenie boppers are loving it!!

  • Can I just point out that they are miming here?

  • @nigellinaballerina haha you're wrong

  • @A1T1C1B They are defininitely miming. CD:UK always have people miming. They even asked Muse to mime. Don't even try tell me i'm wrong. KOL do not sound like this live.

  • Once again, I'll post my thoughts. KOL is no longer the band YOU only heard first in your little slice of the world. Just because you aren't turning others onto them, and are the first to listen doesn't mean KOL isn't getting better.

  • I want roots Kings of Leon, and want to cry, i want my mom =/

  • it doesn't take a rocket scientist: old KOL kicks the hell out of the new KOL shit.

  • @june18th1988 HEY EVERYBODY! im gona make a comment about how old kol is better than new kol, can i be cool now? does that make me cool? please , i just wana be cool and join the hater club . p.s. i found out about kol before everyone. i was the very first person to listen to kol . i knew about kol even before kol knew about kol. how cool is that?? YAYYYY old kol is awsoem new kol sucks ADFGDFGGAGAGA im so cool and origional ASDFGADGG. INDIE MUSIC SDHSFHSHS mainstream sucks DSGAHFAGJFAFSWEGA

  • @idrinkalotmorethanu sorry if people are passionate about the band. Yes, bands evolve, just as they did in their 3rd and 4th albums, but the newest album is boring and seems almost soulless, not refined. But what should we expect from a band that put out 5 albums in 7 years? Arena rock is what we got. Will I listen to it? Probably, but I'll keep switching to the old stuff.

  • @june18th1988 naa u cant say that their just different but yh i do prefer this type of music but i still love alot of their new stuff ;)

  • @june18th1988 no thats dumb, They were 100x's better back then than now but they are still freakin awesome

  • @june18th1988 new KOL richer than old KOL

  • @bluesman332

    yup, but all their old fans think they are sellout mainstream shit now, cause they are

  • @evilsnakes1 i dont, but i like there new stuff as well so

  • @bluesman332

    ...i said their old fans

  • hahaha ahhh Jared cocky son of a bitch, love it!

  • Check out by brother band covering this song....this is his channel btw.lol thanks :D

  • Cat Deeley

  • Haha, this is playback. It sounds exactly the same as on the record and the drums has no microphones on them.

  • @mr2866 nah...his vocal timing is a bit different than the album. And half the reason why you think so is because they recorded their first two albums as single track recordings...they record a song, if they don't like it, they do it again...no overlaid tracks. I've seen them live enough to know that they are seriously on point with their performances...no bs. I'm just a loyal fan that doesn't feel the passion in the new album that they had in the previous 4.

  • real rock'n'roll !!!

  • i love them i love them i love them i love them i love them!!!

    i LOVE caleb! he's so cute there! <3

  • holy shit i ust craped my pants!! so fucking fuck energy!!

  • Just Awesome. So awesome it is sick. They sound so perfect on stage.

  • it'd be nice to see this kind of energy now..

  • i know. =( I miss the old kol

  • i know what you me i died a little when i heard only by the night

  • @malaketh I can not agree with you more. The Kings first two albums are soamazing.. They were one of the only bands to keep the classic bluesy rock feel alive and i loved them for it. Not a fan of their "new direction" at alll

  • i looooove calebs hair

  • It doesn't matter to me....KOL will always be awesome in my eyes....new and old stuff included.

  • @Giggle35 TRUE THAT

  • @kevincrilly DOUBLE TRUE!

  • @Giggle35 i couldn't agree more. Its just become trendy to hate this band now which is a shame.

  • @JumpJennyJumpp Hey I hated them before it was popular!

  • @mattmit fair enough, but why are you on the video then?

  • @Giggle35 Fail.

  • oh, I lust for the days when THIS was KOL.

  • Black coffee + Four kicks = instant energy.

  • what a blast of energy this song is!

    AWESOME!!!

  • calebs hair looks like wig

  • Hot.

  • Exciting live performance.

  • unique voice!

  • misty mountain hop? sounds nothin like it pal

  • i like their old stuff better but they're still great

  • I just shit my pants. And I just shit your pants.

  • studs.

    especially caleb and his hair.

  • wow, i remember CD UK, that was good stuff

  • I hate how people call their new stuff bad. Just because its not to your likening doesn't make it a bad song. Theres alot of bands where i prefer there old stuff over there new, but i can't call it bad music.

  • Sorry but their new stuff is bad. What made kings of leon good was their young rock n' roll sound. They never had that good of lyrics, it's pretty generic. But there are good bands that can rock n' roll AND have generic lyrics, which is kind of the point (Slade, KISS, ACDC). But Kings of Leon lost their rock n' roll. They replaced it with boring mediocre rock, and still have boring generic lyrics. SO yes, there new stuff is bad.

  • I agree with you 100%, the10eyedtwolip.

  • well its just peoples opinions, just like your having yours.

  • You know that comment from ashmidnight is right on the money. It's nice to see some people knowledgeable about such things. ^-^

  • THIS IS KINGS OF LEON!!!

  • "Because of the times" best record ever. unbelievable music

  • misty mountain hop!

  • Old, new, I dig it all.

  • Oh my god! CD UK! Thats taking me back :/

  • you can only only do the same shit for a certain amount of time...

  • listen, the only way i can describe kings of leon .. is kurt cobain and nirvana continued if kurt didnt kill himself, it would have ended up in the same type of thing.... Catchy pop shit yet still awesome.

  • Can we please get over the fact that they are evolving in their music? They can't stay with the same sound forever, but there are many elements they have stuck to: awesome lyrics, unique melodies, kickin' bass lines, etc. One of the biggest differences I see that I love? Caleb is using his vocal talent to the extreme, and he said so himself. That's probably one of the reasons why it sounds so different, but they getting better and better. Get over it!

  • @ashmidnight Well said dude :)

  • @ashmidnight THANK YOU!! just cause there not so indie anymore doesn't mean they suck it means they've been recognized but people are just retarded

  • ASH and YYAM are their best album they went poppy now i didn't mind only by night but Because of times was terrrible p.s KOL rule

  • BOT is actually amazing.

  • Thanks!

  • How can this band be such pure untained awesomeness?

  • Aha Shake Heartbreak > Only By The Night

    hands down

  • you know whats funny as soon as they get hair cuts they become famous

  • Oh, Kings of Leon.

    The days when you were cool. :D

  • agreed ... wtf when did they get so poppy and i have nothing against their music being played on the radio but the stuff they have out now just doesn't sound anything like what it was before

  • kick ass I'd agree - the shame is that no one was actually there for this performance for KOL because we were there for U2, I was there at the back of the audience and now love 'em both. Wish I'd got KOL tickets for London now - boy they're kicking

  • Jared isnt using a pick :O

  • FUKIN THE SHITE

  • whattttt i dont remember them being on this!! i love jared!!

  • this is actually good. the ones on the radio are crap

  • such a cool band

  • yeah kick ass song !!!!!!!! amazing

  • I love how Jared smooths out his hair just before shaking it out at 1:33. LOVE this group

  • who cares?

  • haha they all pout when they play i love it

    i liked his hair back then too

  • fuk that was awesome

  • the good old times , they rocked !

  • Comment removed

  • I love this so much.

  • I was there at the back of the ground and the reason we weren't going mental is because we were all there for U2 who were playing after KOL had done a few songs, in the crowd of 200 there were only about 10people there for KOL, so really they were playing to an audience who were new to them. Still - good memories though

  • I prefer their earlier stuff personaly,i'm from Scotland and im glad America still has some good modern rock bands...bands like the killers annoy me because theyre heavily influenced by british music...rock n roll was born in america and i'm glad there's some honest stuff still coming out of there...even if it is pop rock now

  • Rock n roll was born in england dude and i say that as an american.. the beatles, the rolling stones, queen, the clash the list goes on and on. It was close but I don't think our music scene would even be recognizable without those early influences.

  • Ermm have you ever heard of Chuck Berry,Buddy Holly and a little known performer by the name of ELVIS? The Beatles and The Stones have both proudly said that they were heavily influenced by the rock n roll scene that was happening in America in the mid to late 50's..incidentally, John Lennon was a massive Elvis fan...you dont know much about music eh?

  • But Elvis was only a singer. Other people used to write songs for him. No credit for his songs should be given to him. He's just like Britney Spears except that he can really sing well.

  • Yes, I've heard of all of them. And INCIDENTALLY, the artists you mentioned are not exactly rock bands, they performed with other members but one does need accompanying instruments. We were referring to rock bands or so I thought. I think American musicians did a lot of grunt work and fumbled around with blues and what not but if you do your reading it sounds like the UK surpassed us pretty quickly. Yes, I do know my music and who didn't like Elvis? Not surprised.

  • Well you clearly wrote on your first reply to my comment,and i quote "Rock n roll was born in england dude and i say that as an american".That's what i responded to.

    Trust me,i'm not one to go giving America credit where it's not due,but it's the truth.Rock and Roll was born in America.

    As you Americans say though..it's all good

  • haha touche
