  • I enjoyed the video 'paddle boy'. I'm sure you also fantisied about the bare chested 'blud'

  • que mulher estranha 

  • Good rendition. ;)

  • giv me a fucking break. this new version is shit. Dont fuck up what was good music....

  • @xrayeyesb4u I wonder if you would say that to Sean Kingston. Or Puff. Or Eminem n Lil' Wayne. That's what creative people do, kiddo. Took something old and create something different with it. I doubt Ben E. King is rolling in his grave, and I didn't hear Sting and Haddaway complaining either.

  • Very good Cover !!!!

  • pfff comment gâcher une magnifique chanson.. juste horrible cette version..

  • I loved this song... Did they ever release an album??

  • encontrei!!! tinha esta musica gravada em cd e perdi!!! Saudades deste som....GOOD, very good...

  • that girl is siva from the wanted's sister :')

  • I'm in two minds about this, I like what Dove have done with it, but it's a little tainted by the female vocals, they sound like they've been quite seriously auto-tuned.

  • @neil30blue it's her accent lol listen to "the cranberries" and "Celtic Woman" and youll hear it there too :)

  • This is cringe-worthy. A God-awful butchering of a brilliant song. It's actually physically uncomfortable to listen to it - I've got as far as the organ solo and my my is really to explode. Terrible, terrible, terrible.

  • Great video!!! Sorry, but I don't understand what all the negativity is

    about. Songs are always being modernized ya kno. I love both

    of Doves version of this oldie but goodie. And they sing GREAT!!!!

  • @MrDaveLoCo Hey, thanks for taking the time to comment, Dave. Neil Finn loves this version and he has immense taste (and talent)! Some people on here need to be educated!

  • Comment removed

  • Way to fuck it up you fuckin douche bags I wish I could jump through the screen and strangle you FUCK YOU!!!!!

  • @RUSH731000 And all over a song?? That Neil Fin actually loves? The only people to use terms like "Douche Bags" are usually people who are perfectly described by the term! Try and find some friends and develop some outside interests!

  • @RUSH731000 lol evil negativity but hilarious reaction man, give em E for effort and creativity.nice try.coulda been worse.maybe.

  • Boy did these assholes fuck this song up Royal ! What a piece of Shit. Douche Bags should of left well enough alone. Believe me ..... It's over.

  • @viewmore100 Err... it's "should have". Why dont you study English grammar? Oh sorry.. that would mean you would have to get a life...

  • @paddle9 @piddle0 Suckmywhat?

  • @paddle9 good job being a grammer nazi.... now go find hitler in hell and teach him some english

  • She would have been SO much more successful on her own. the guy ruin it.

  • Ive looked for this song for ages and never found it til nw. Think it got to number 2 in Ireland? And i saw them in panto all those yrs ago (as themselves performing). Havent heard it in ten yrs and nt disappointed! cheers

  • saw these live years ago they were fantastic!!! a great take on a classic song!!

  • check Hazel's little bro's band out "Wanted" similar to JLS great music though

  • @bicrastAK Do you have a link?

  • @bicrastAK yeah! sivas sister :')

  • the wasted version ever! :) yeah!!

  • que basura / asco/ verguenza

  • excruciating

  • This has always been my fav version & I love the vid. takes me back :)

  • It will never be a clasic but its not bad...

  • they are very inspiring, i like it

  • good

  • @rrriketube Thanks!! I think so too. Have you seen their other songs I have uploaded?

  • does anyone know where i can get the lyrics for this song?

  • The girl should have sung the song she would have did a good job

  • Comment removed

  • @JohnKillrory Er... except Neil really loves this version!! If you don'yt like rap, fair enough. But Crowded House recognise good music from wherever it comes from.

  • @paddle9 Fair enough. I should respect the work of all people sorry

  • @paddle9 Fair enough, I should have respect for all a artist who try their best, Sorry

  • Comment removed

  • find a different job iii

  • I would like to hear the instrumental version of this. I think it would better than the one with vocals to it.

  • So many bands and people have crapped all over this song.

    No one does it like Neil Finn/Crowded House.

  • @8835855 That's why it's not a cover like Paul Young's version. This is a new interpretation. And Crowded House love it (as do I!)

  • She has an amazing voice

  • Gay

  • @SmokeBojangles yes it is a very happy song.... congratulations on your assumptions.

  • @GuitarRockinChick18 Very good! Thanks!

  • @SmokeBojangles Thanks for telling us your sexual preference. Now, what do you think about the song (and what does your boyfriend think?)

  • @paddle9 My boy friend loves it.I Myself Prefer the Girl Singing The chorus.She does a great job.Then again The boy friend looks kinda like the fellow on it.

  • @SmokeBojangles She's hot! Are you?? LOL!!

  • This is like a remix cover, and it's really interesting!

    I like how they kept the same concept with the inspiring lyrics and made it their own style. I also love the woman's accent when she sings, so beautiful :)

    This is the only hip hop/rap I like because it actually serves a purpose and isn't just noise. I'll definitely have to share this with friends and family now. Thanks for posting! :D

  • @GuitarRockinChick18 Thank you so much for taking the time to comment! Take a look at their other song, Blow Your Mind (2 versions). 

  • this group was irish i rember when they came out wiv this song i ofteh see her up around grafton street in dublin :)

  • shiales esta bien jodia esta version

  • hmm very different but i like the way they sing the chorus. its ok

  • "american black music" não está entre minhas preferências, mas a batida dessa versão desse clássico dos 80's me agradou deveras. Surpreendi-me inclusive classificando-a no código "+10X"!

  • I have tried for WEEKS to find this rendition of DDIO by Dove, but I can't find it. I can't even find Dove on iTunes period. Are they really not on iTunes, or am I just not looking in the right places on the iTunes store???

  • @AFVfan1 I guess they may be in the Irish iTunes store but not elsewhere...

  • There's something than the original one

    Crowded house =)

  • VERY GOOD :D

  • I loved this song!

  • WTF? nvm il go to another page

  • omg they killd this song this was stupid, they should have left it alone

  • the worst version ever

  • @GulfHeaven You obviously never heard Paul Young's version... 

  • wow i didnt think this song could be redone but i really like this song, way to be creative dove, you won me over! :)

  • @allentown121212 Great comment - thanks!!

  • i like yhis version

  • @87buickgn10 LMFAO!!

  • Nice. A very modernized tech beat with a bit of attitude mixed with it. Far different from the original version. :)

  • es mejor con Sixpence None The Richer

  • Dafür ist dieses Video, ein regelrechter Scheiß, gar kein Vergleich mit Leigh Nash!??

  • The thiefs are here

  • Oh God, why?

  • cool!

  • I'm diggin' the sh!t out've it...

    and she's eerily sexxxi...

  • lol irish band?! thats wicked. but i kinda prefer sixpence none the richer's version

  • they just used the name and some of the lines of the song, including the hook to hawk this shitty version. The chick can't really sing so she uses the r&b trick, and the rap verses are worse than WIll smith

  • Wow...this is different. But I like it :)

  • YES !!!

  • there's something almost REPULSIVE in the first 30 seconds, when you think they just made some half-cocked cover....

    However, after 30 seconds... BOOM! you realize this is a whole different thing and it's actually pretty darn sweet!

    Superb

  • 1st thought: No way they can pull this off

    2nd thought: all right not bad

    3rd thought: digging this

  • I like this version!

  • black irish??

  • Indeed! Black and Proud!

  • I love it ! Great song !

  • wtf they raped this song!

  • Great Version of a great song

  • I personally liked this "cover". It is hard to find covers of songs that are impossible to cover because the original song and sound is sssooo unique. I liked this because they added their own twist to a classic and one hell of a song. :D

  • Check out the other song I have of theirs called "Blow your mind - Dubh version")

  • I dident like this version :S!

  • Love this interpretation of the song,had the cd single when it was released,but I never saw the video until now.Thanks so much for posting it,great version..

  • Thank you! Think it should have been a bigger hit, especially with the high quality video.

  • Ahhhh. This version of this song takes me waaaaaaaaaay back.

  • Honestly, I love Crowded House, I was a big fan since their "Split Ends" days. I'm not too thrilled with this version. I think Six Pence None the Richer did a wayyyy wayyy better job with not butchering this song.

    However, the girl's voice is very nice but her eyebrows are bugging the hell out of me!

  • more than her lips???? her mouth is kind of strange too. Anyway i'm totally agree with you, six pence did best, and crowed...well... is crowded house

  • wow this is an awful cover

  • It's not a cover. Like most hip-hop/rap style songs, it takes a great song and does something different with it. Heard Paul Young's cover? It isn't good... ;-)

  • love this version,been lookin for it for yrs,takes me back to being a teenager ;) ha ha memorys!

  • I love this version, i remember when it was released back in 1998/1999! it reminds me of my younger days! thanks for this paddle9!

  • Absolutely butchered this song. Real talent write there own new material, this is the quick talentless way out, to butcher someone else's song as a cover ;-(

  • Thanks for the comment. Please do try studying grammar sometime and learn the difference between "there" and "their". It's most annoying!

    Please also do your research - Neil Finn loves this version.

    Now - it isn't, by definition, a cover. It takes the basic song and does something different with it.

    And, if you look elsewhere, they wrote their own song - Blow Your Mind.

    The best and most original artists have done great covers - there is no shame in it.

  • Besides the grammar issue (which is just childish to point out btw) i realize this is not a straight cover, that makes it even more talentless in my book. if you are going to cover a song, then cover a song. But don't mutate the thing.

    What this song is, as i said in my previous post, is a butcher job. If it were a straight cover of the song it would be just that, a cover. The artist here butchered the song up so it could now even be classifies under a different genre for heavens sake.

  • @whynot: I stumbled upon this video and decided to play it as I rememeber it when I was a kid. You must be a Crowded House fan then? Well even when I was young and heard this song I thought the track a well over played as a song in general. Butchered is a bit harsh. They did their own take on the track. I suppose you like covers to be the exact same as the original. No? Oh you said real talent come from those who write their own material. I suppose Hendrix butchered All Along the Watchtower?

  • Yes, of course im a crowded house fan, but that's pretty much irrelevant here. Butchered a bit harsh?....I definitely don't think so. Do i like covers to be the exact same as the original?...No, of course not, but for it to be a cover and be released under the same song title, it should at least resemble it's former self, with the exception of the chick saying "hey now" over and over again, there is really nothing left to remind the listener of it's former self.

    Cont'd below..

  • The way that i see this is a band that is just too lazy to think of there own music. It's very simple to toss some lyrics onto an already tried and true track and get positive feedback on it.

    It should have either been produced under a different title (because it is not a cover) or as a cover should have stuck more to it's original being.

    I just think it's absolute rubbish, but again, thats JMHO.....

  • i Love the original, but this is a sweet version.

  • Man this song reminds me a being around 13-14 n headin up ta these chicks up in raheny we were meetin an playin pitch n putt in st.Annes haha,ALWAYS makes me smile no matter how shite im feelin!

  • Great comment!! I appreciate it! I was living in Cambridge when it was a hit - they played it on the radio a lot in Cambridge!

  • could you pls put up blow your mind.its a savage song! i love dis band. met thems loads of times. i danced with them also!!

  • I put blow your mind up. Would love to have met the band - wonder what thy are doing now (apart from Hazel - with the Lyrics game and all that!). You're lucky.

  • Well, I gotta admit that I love the original more, but this is impressive. =] I like it.

  • Omg will just put up the song plz

  • Anyone have blow your mind??

  • I have the CD single - not the video.

  • Hi! I now have the Standard and Dubh Mix version of Blow Your Mind on YouTube at /watch?v=baWp2WlJWKA

  • how comes this isnt available on I-Tunes

  • I don't know, they had a few singles such as Blow Your Mind. iTunes has loaded some obscure Irish music, such as Auto da Fe, but not this. Shame!

  • hi can you tell me more about this group please? i love this song and need a copy of it but am finding it hard? thanks

  • Yes, you can buy it on Amazon UK. Just search on "Don't Dream" in Music and look at any entries by Dove. New and Used

  • The band were Graham Cruz, Done Ade and Hazel Kaneswaran. Kaneswaran was chosen for Girls Aloud but was 10 days over the limit. Born to a Singaporean-Indian father and Irish red-headed and freckled mother, Hazel was brought up in the working class area of Blanchardstown in Dublin, Ireland. As another Asian girl was rejected at this stage, Girls Aloud ended up as an all-white group. Make of that what you will, with recent unsavoury news articles in mind.

  • dont mean to be a pest, but when u say Hazel was picked for Girls Aloud and rejected.... remind me, as its wreckin my head... did she not choose to leave at bootcamp or whatever it was called then, because she was pregnant??? were they not going to allow her to stay on despite age, but she was going to be due durin live shows, so she pulled out to give someone else a chance??? do i remember that right ????

  • Mate can you please please please upload this as a torrent to piratebay or isohunt...Had teh original cd years ago but lost it and have been scouring torrents for this for ages with no luck.

  • WHY WERE THEY NEVER FAMOUS????!!!!!

    Does anybody have "Blow Ya Mind", the single before this one??

  • Thanks 4 your comment. I have it on CD - the same CD this video was taken from. It was another great track... Can we upload audio tracks on here (without having to do a montage)?

  • I've put Blow Your Mind up - both versions!! I love it!

  • beautiful video effects...

  • The video was in stereo but YouTube monofied it. This doesn't happen with other web sites...

  • Took me a while to find this
