[sugarmami21]

[skellybones308]

BRILLIANT <3

[SequinCoffee]

I prefer the acoustic version better

[annieisaretard]

This was the first time I heard The Maccabees, and I've loved them ever since :)

[DoorsAreSecured]

This is one of the most gorgeous things that I have ever heard.

[PurpleFLOWER211]

Are all guys hot in england in general??bcuz he is one beutiful boy

[JessLiberti]

[mrscalebfollowill]

SO cute! Perfect.

[soccerlaughlive]

perfection..it wasnt a performance by THE maccabees it was more Orlando Weeks..dont you think?. (:

[meryyspain]

love it, simply amazing !

[redmonkey949]

whichever 8 people disliked this must have something seriously up with their life

[Petrabi]

His voice makes my panties wet.

[TheGreenFrog95]

Anyone get the feeling when you're annoyed whilst listening to music, because it's so ****ing good?

ARGH!!!!!!

[KiDoPeHD]

So calm (: 

[Fuentesest48]

his calm self makes him that much more beautiful

[BlissAmberEllis]

THIS IS AMAZING! Better than the orginal if you ask me :) HE ISSSSS HOTT!!!

[tamie1041]

woooo 500th like

[bennypatel]

Don't get me wrong, I actually love the maccabees, probably the mostest in the world.

However, for people who don't know them, the presenter describes them as have 'aggression' and 'jittery beats.' What do they get? Orlando by himself with a ukelele. She should have stressed how a beautiful voice, with amazing lyrics and a wonderfully casual demeanour.

[OllieKay27]

@bennypatel

mostest..

[estellesweethearts]

@OllieKay27 LOL

[greyreview]

484 girls just orgasmed uncontrollably

[nipatricio]

@greyreview 486 now.

[milsmilsmilsmils]

so sexy

[zolexd]

ze oiie muii trizte u_u zta mejor la normal

[MrNilesdavis]

Can anyone tell me, which type of guitar he is playing? ...thanks =)

[bezza1985]

HAHAHAHAHA the "aggression" of the ARCTIC MONKEYS!?!?!?!

my piss is more aggressive than those indie fucking faggots.

if you want aggression, try heavy metal, not music made for homo-sexuals and girls ;)

[vdubkyle]

@bezza1985 nob off? cheers.

[bezza1985]

@vdubkyle do you mean knob*?

don't answer, I know you do :)

[billburnx]

@bezza1985 cleary you havent seen them live, you heavy metal fuck wit!

[bezza1985]

@billburnx CLEARY you need to pay more attention in school...

[georgefewings93]

@bezza1985 dont just come here to slag off music. the maccabees are a fucking sick band. go back to "heavy metal" you mug

[bezza1985]

@georgefewings93 Okay, I was linked to this video, fair enough on the first part of your comment about slagging it off.

Secondly, the maccabees really aren't a "sick" band. they're a light rock band at most with a huuuuge lack of guitar technicality.

Thirdly, I will.... you don't need to tell me to :)

[nawbruv]

@bezza1985 tsssss. nice metallica cover fag

[bezza1985]

@nawbruv Your account name has the word bruv in it.... I don't even know why I'm responding to you.

But yeah, I'm not actually in that video.

CHEERS.

[nawbruv]

@bezza1985 ironic name

[OllieKay27]

@nawbruv

prick

[alessonincrime]

@bezza1985 Heavy Metal is all that is wrong with music.

[eireldn]

@bezza1985 heavy metal is dead. you piss aggressively maybe because you have aids. The Maccabees are one of the finest bands to emerge in the last few years.

[signpunkrebel]

I love the voice of this boy!!! It´s great, beautiful and soft.

[TheRealStalkers]

chords anyone? pleeeease!

[Vinny1574]

@TheRealStalkers I've got a tab on a Notepad document.

Errm how shall i send it you?

[theticktocksound]

I've known about this video for so long and i still thing its the best thing ever

[seanrandall4]

This is beautiful. So much meaning.

[tobyn123]

[AlmondFreckles]

Makes me wanna cry with a smile on my face haha

[backintoyouropenarms]

[kathysoiio]

[georgesof]

[hannahsmallhands]

precious time acoustic makes me want to cry and hunt him down and marry him there and then.

[DavidTennantLover7]

[twilightfreakyaa]

I think I just fell in love?

[givemethewall]

this is simply PURE TALENT!! it's impressive how simple is for him to change the song key.

[isitBEEF]

he has such a beautiful voice :')

[ARTBMB]

I love The Maccabees so much, he has an amazing voice and he is just gorgeous.

[chilledjuice1]

is that a baratone uke he's playing?

[orangepuffafish]

Beautiful.

[eindhoven24]

Lets get married?

[BiggySpin94]

is that just a small guitar or is there a name for it, i thought it was a ucilaly

[Technodancephobic]

@BiggySpin94 Ukelele

[MaryEllennF]

@BiggySpin94

*ukelele

[kikimckenzie]

Hmmm it sounds so similar to Toothpaste Kisses here.

[marycabh]

amo esta música e a banda

[waterisawesome]

when he sang this, he automatically looked cuter .

[npmc7]

i wish he still looked like this!!!! but then again hes still okay as he is now i guess...

[FreashlySquezed]

i have a band named that

[fogjinda]

so good its unreal.

[Collexion]

This was the first time i'd ever heard the maccabees and now i listen to them everyday at least!

[walkofstyle]

love the maccabees very cool! does anyone kno if his got this song in a specific tunning i went out and got a classical guitar, 1/2 size n still sounds a bit off?

[ellis0abc]

ok. me and my friend are here right now and we're dead. nothing compares to his level of amazing-ness, there are only few people so beautifully crafted by the soft, padded, gentle, ripples from a fat angels fingertips. and he is one of them. along with various other miracles such as Laura Marling, Marcus Mumford and Harry McViegh.

[tigertank901]

check out my cover of this song, rate and subscribe, cheers:)

[MJTxo]

this is one of my favourite videos everrrr <3

[tmtulmm]

his skin/face looks so young here

in more recent videos he's def aged a bit in the face...? [anyone agree?]

still cute tho nonetheless :)

[screamedthemouth]

They put alot of makeup on you for tv so that's perhaps why

[TheJoshyG]

wilp94 - think it must be a mini nylon stringed guitar (spanish). This is brilliant! So much better acoustic! :D

[wilp94]

Hey!

Does anyone know what kind of guitar it is.

Looks spanish/classical like.

[DeafEskimo]

The jeans and shoes need to fuck off

[tinka222]

Orlando is so damn beautiful.. :)

[GubblyJones]

his wee feet! <3

[beku14]

That was actually RADICAL!

[rosarrgh]

i breathed in some of his breath a week ago at o2. What a beautiful man!! x

[BenteSugarvenom]

beautiful.

and yeah he's really gorgeous :D

[thumby1212]

This is cool, but it definitely has neither the aggression of the Arctic Monkeys nor the jittery beat of The Futureheads here. You don't get the full blast of how incredible The Maccabees are until you've seen the full band in action. Watch First Love live. It'll blow your mind.

[cakemania321]

totaly agree but why do u have 2 sound the presenters? not to be harsh, but can u not give an opinion? x

[thumby1212]

yes, if you put out an opinion then it's opened to be challenged... what the hosts are saying is true of the Maccabees, but not when they do their subdued acoustic versions

[harryspoonpotter]

@thumby1212 saw them on the nme tour they were soooooo amazing

[thumby1212]

@harryspoonpotter Yeah, I'm glad NME caught onto them so quickly... Once they tour the states, I'm THERE =]

[churchjamespeter]

@thumby1212 he said the band has not the song

[MrWooohoo]

@thumby1212 i saw them at the brixton academy and it was one i of the best experiences of my life. the atmosphere was like nothing i have ever experienced

[thumby1212]

@MrWooohoo I'm jealous... I'm sure it was AMAZING. They need to tour in the states before I can see them =[

[MrWooohoo]

@thumby1212 are sorry to here that man i'm sure they will tho

[JiubLink]

@thumby1212

No, right here is something delicate and subtle, something the arctic monkeys have never got as far as.

Sincerity, you know.

[scotslandspade]

@JiubLink

Cornerstone?

[MrMaInY84]

@thumby1212 Totally agree here. Id heard them before but after seing them live i completely loved there music and immediately thought they are one of the most under rated bands i know :)

[XxVwQu33nxX]

im actually in love with this man <3 he is really cute and he sings and plays so lush :) without effort too ! grr , jealous. id love to be his girlfriend :L :)

[runwiththemoon]

he sings so nicely.

and he's really fit.

[antitainment]

this performance is as close to perfection as it can get. i'm in love.

[usejabonenpastillas]

he's really sexy

[snakevifor18]

he's hot :D

[onthewalkoffame]

What I would give to be that guitar. Or that microhone. Actually I'd rather be a person so I can just hug that lovely man.

[blatesKgal]

SO sexy

[jeniqu]

DAMN RIGHT <3

[jamesakawoody]

his voice is so soft and beautiful. He strums his guitar with such eligance. Musical fusion! x

[blatesKgal]

[madmusicalmonkey]

[MusicIsMyWorldDude]

[ohcharlottex]

[MsGabster1]

Orlando is the sweetest person, but wheres the rest of the band??

[rieltripp]

oh boy, i think i just drooled all over myself

[emily80253]

this is so perfect

i hate that woman presenter though, she always used to wear the same clothes and her voice....grrrr!

[irotinmyskin]

amazing! a great song can be stripped down to a single junior cheap guitar, and still sound great!...loved this version....

[yttikollehheart]

i love how they show his shoes :) this is perfect i love it!!!

[latchmere12]

This is perfect. He is perfect. Lets get married?

[xflashahh]

orlando looks SO young!

[sparkmehappy]

love on legs!

[mentalbowen]

is his guitar 3/4?

[SmooveDiFontaine]

better than the original...

[mentalbowen]

this makes me want to play spanish guitar (: anyone know a good to place to get one?

[CoralLaRoc1]

I Love You.. He needs to come to my house and serenade me. Now.

[Siviaknows]

what kind of guitar is this?

[iqww]

spanish/classical

[wang4squeem]

hmm would love to play this on my ukulele! Anyone good at making tabs...

[JTee93]

wicked version, love how he slows it down more than usual.

He's wearin the same classics as jamie t on the same show ;D

[Anwarhaggis]

Orlando is wow! his voice, his shoe! just wow!

[superstar720]

prefer this to the original

[yasmineonetwothree]

this is adorable, seems really fragile when acoustic.

[FuriousMermaid]

Ahhh I'm in love.

[gertrotteryml]

Great version of a great song.

Does anyone have the chords for this?

[rosweldo]

[walkingtalkingmess]

[huttythehutthutt]

cannot stop watching this video it's sooooo good. Orlando <3

[dg2992]

Just saw them at t in the park highlight of the weekend

[babjjb]

This version let's you hear the fantastic lyrics more, which is awesome, I think. :)

[Fillipinoskater]

i love this version of the song so much!

i like the original as well, but this one gives me shivers sometimes.

my cousin has a classical little guitar like that and i was going to do a cover, but as soon as i started playing the D string broke.

anyway, maccabees are the best !

along with libertines, foals, dirty pretty things, josiah leming, etc.

[15Elliott93]
