[zeroalex2]

[0mgoth]

[IRONJOEPAWLOWSKI]

[MultiClaaa]

He drives me crazy at 1:45 !!

[pat1mydon]

[fei100100]

[calvinsmith95music]

[MelancholicWolf]

Not to be the whiny guy or anything, but I just cannot compare the brilliance of Matchbox and generally the older album songs to the refined mediocrity that the Kooks produce today....

[elmhust62]

he should've put that little solo on the recording hugh is a fuckinng genious broo

[jesmarievives]

this song gives me mood swings.. "dont come too close you don't want to see my ghost!.... we are going OUT tonight!!! .... yeah and to that his voice and the high pitch on "heart bleed" :)

[rcast321]

[Earwiig]

That voice could make nuns moist

[cristaljoy95]

his accents.



[BruceNJeffAreMyFlies]

@cristaljoy95 He doesn't have an accent. That's just how words are meant to sound.

[crazylatingirl94]

@BruceNJeffAreMyFlies Everyone has an accent.

[SmudgyHollz]

@BruceNJeffAreMyFlies He does have an accent. He's from Liverpool. He's got a Liverpudlian accent.

[antoBN]

@SmudgyHollz He has grown up in Brighton, he rather has an accent from Brighton!

[BruceNJeffAreMyFlies]

@SmudgyHollz He's not singing with an accent.

[QueenEmzy]

@BruceNJeffAreMyFlies Everyone has an accent, depending on where you're from.

[themontagna11]

seriously luke, i WOULD like to see your ghost if thats the closest i can get to the real thing <3

[MaybeYoureCrazy]

How do you call this kind of music, with all the muted notes? Do you guys know any other bands/songs that use this technique? (some exemples that I already know: mardy bum (arctic monkeys), santaria (sublime), naive (kooks)......)

[Jakobusderaeltere]

2:37 you're playing the wrong song, Hugh.

[mrscrystalbear]

acoustics are sharp, harmony , reggae and the lead singer sounds a bit like the Cure. Unique sound.

[VDNtheheartbreaker]

The Kooks are out in the streets !

[RPN0]

this song is so cool

[Nerd974]

22 people don't see The Kooks on the streets

[Jedalesie]

oh and i sang the whole song of course!

[Jedalesie]

i tried to do a the first verse vicousley she sleep she sleep etc and i recorded it and i sounded like a evil german man!! XD lol

[TheBlankThought]

God he's hot.

[Craaziekiins]

Amazing looove them

[Skaternick911]

The Beatles had a song called Matchbox <3

[dabirdmonkey]

pretty good, but just disgraceful to abbey road, let the haters hate

[monrealnetters]

Man that guy probably wins arguments all the time he just starts talking and people forgive him cause his voice is so awesome!

[pingufication]

falscher text. richtig: "And I wish I bite my lip and crawl up" und "youre rotten but betrayed" und "Oh we're gonna steal your skies".

[musicalluv454]

omg i have kook fever and it is terminal <3

[iwantMOREofHORAN]

a mix of the kooks, bat for lashes,mumford and sons and coldplay is actually the PERRFECT music for me... his voice is jus so SEXXYY...

[CrazyBassistRae3]

Jizz worthy.

C:>

[LuccasArilius]

First song I've ever heard by The Kooks.

Loved the song, freakin' good dude. But - did anyone else feel like this vocalist is the british version of Nick Jonas in his singing? .-.

[rodb7]

Don't come too close

You don't want to see my ghost

Your rotten but I'm betrayed

By you my sweetheart

[LadyWhoLikesCheese]

I feel like i'm one of the only 16 year olds that loves this band lol. Nobody i know loves this band and this kind of music like i do!!! All the kids' at school have bad taste. So do my friends.

[MrBigmanmusic]

@LadyWhoLikesCheese ur not alone im only sixteen most the kids in my school dont have a good taste in music

[LadyWhoLikesCheese]

@MrBigmanmusic i know, im always listening to music that most people don't like.

[MrBigmanmusic]

@LadyWhoLikesCheese cause u got good taste

[LadyWhoLikesCheese]

@MrBigmanmusic True that! So do you ahaha

[TheGlamSlam1]

@LadyWhoLikesCheese i'm sixteen and love the kooks where as other kids our age would rather listen to rihanna or lady gaga.

[LadyWhoLikesCheese]

@TheGlamSlam1 Right? Stuff like this is really talented, i wish they'd see it, but oh well. I mean i do like some pop, but not as much as this stuff, Plus- music on the radio is overplayed like crazy, they should play more variety like the kooks and such bands(:

[TheGlamSlam1]

@LadyWhoLikesCheese Exactly. it's not bad but overplayed. If radio's played more music like this more people would be interested! Especially in here in America!

[LadyWhoLikesCheese]

@TheGlamSlam1 Definitely! Then more people would hear them, and they'd get more fans too which would be awesome for them hahah. Then again, it's always those Less-famous bands that are the best(:

[mrgordonplaysdrums]

@TheGlamSlam1 Why should we care?

[teddypicker12345]

@LadyWhoLikesCheese

move to the UK, bands like the Kooks are big. we've got better taste :P

[LadyWhoLikesCheese]

@teddypicker12345 Hahah, woah, really? I shall move to the UK then! :D

[hannahschofield7]
