  • this is my love

  • so sad she didnt cover the whole song!

  • awww : ) <3

  • nice cover. both so good

  • awesome

  • If i didnt already know the song i wouldn't know what she was singing. Purposefully slurring her words?... Is it meant to sound good or has she suffered a stroke? I'll never understand the obsession with Florence. Beautiful arrangement and cover by the Machine though, their take on this song is refreshing. Just wish they had a singer that was easier on the ears.

  • @UglySparks The hell are you talking about? I've never heard the real song and I can understand each word .__.

  • My friend said I look like Florence.... only with brown hair.

    **is honored** B-]

  • I've broken my arm in two different places and didn't cry. My parents got divorced when I was 14 I didn't cry. This song made me cry pretty hard listening to it, just music at its best.

  • I have a crazy idea, can we just enjoy the cover instead of indulging the never ending whose is better comment battle, I'm sure they aren't sitting around arguing about who did it better so why should we?

  • This cover blows the orignial, really this is way better. but its a matter of taste I suppose.

  • its a good cover but prefer the original

  • Original is MUCH better.

  • This is a great song. Florence and The machine are great. But I must say that the original by Cold War Kids is much much better. Heads and Tails better.

  • a perfect example of how to ruin a good music.

  • I like and respect this song, just in the description, it shouldn't be "by" Florence and the Machine. Sung by, yes . Made by, no. That's Cold War Kids.

  • Love it!

  • well hot daam, this is better, than green tea.

  • Ona jest boska :) <3

  • dont u mean Hospital beds by the cold war kids, performed by Florence and the machine xD

  • I like this version,but I do like cold war kids' original better.I just think it's great that this big name band did a cover of a song that should have been more popular,thanks for posting :)

  • After hearing the Cold War Kids version...I thought this was the original

  • @idontjudge2 awkward moment when that is definitely not the case...

  • The original is better not that this is bad ofc

  • This is a brilliant cover, but the original brought me down to tears hearing it. I mean, when you pay close attention to the lyrics, it scares you, my interpretation of it is that, two Vietnam soldiers befriend each other while dying. Cold War Kids are the just unbelievable. Oh, and there's two things we can at least agree on,

    1. Florence (Florence + The Machine is a band) can SING.

    2. She has a great taste in music.

  • @MrAbdi111 In my case Flornce live version of this song brought me to tears, while the original was just, "Meh"... Both are good but Florence just make the song her own. She's beyond talanted.

  • put out the fire on us..

    

  • fucking amazing cover!

  • @idontjudge2

    good one

  • Comment removed

  • I like the live version of this cover more.Even though this is much clearer.

  • lol florence is the only girl who still looks good in a captain america costume (or whatever he is called)

  • I don't care which one is better. Just listen to her voice and orgasm.

  • @xKiDFRESHH ew

  • I prefer the actual song, I think in a way she kind of butchered it..

  • I beleive the original and this one are both wonderful in their own styles. Florence and the Machine are talented as well as Cold War Kids.

  • I'm in love with this. IN LOVE with this.

  • She could do this a Capella and it would still sound fantastic. Good cover.

  • catched it yet?

  • uhhh didnt really like it. i like the original waaaaaay better. but nice voice.

  • When I clicked on this link, I was hoping and praying that it was a Cold War Kids cover.

  • I think i prefer cold war kid's cover of this

  • @TheKillerPigeon the cold war kids version is not a cover it is their song

  • LOL No one is trying to convince anyone that this is Florence +  The Machine's song.

  • A true Cold War Kids fan here, and no hate on F&M but the orignial is sooo much better!

  • @GollumSupernova Haha, I'm a true F+TM fan and I agree! Though I love Cold War Kids too. ^.^

  • a girl at my school was dancing to this and I was like "wait... I know this song.. is that Florence? ...singing Cold War Kids? o.o"

  • Omg i have this freaking song on replay!!

  • Hm she's alright, her voicse gets a bit irritating though. Cold war kids version is a lot better. But i guess originals will always be the best.

  • @toxicatingme You sir have excellent tast in music

  • COLD WAR KIDS!!!!!!!!!!

  • I love cold war and florence they real close, they probs wouldnt giv i fuk bout the title shut your eyes n listen,,

    FUK YOUS ALLL THIS IS AN ELEMENT OF BLISS!!!!!!

  • i love her shirt at 1:23

  • Rip the audio from this video at speedyconversion doht cohm.

  • this is pretty good.....doesn't deserve all the hater comments. that being said the original is a million times better

  • Love this song. Hate this cover. I normally like her voice, but it sounds like she's yelling at me in this one.

  • Florence covering Cold War Kids...there is a God..

  • i love this song(: cold war kids did good writting this song. This cover is good too. Hearing from a female voice puts this song in another perspective. I really enjoy it(:

  • Love this song

  • The original is better, but this is still good.

  • 1st time I heard this: Naw. HATE IT. But just to be sure I hat it I'll play this again.

    67th time I listened to it: Sweet jesus I'm addicted.

  • I love this song. My favourite cover by Florence. I love the lyrics, they're so helpless && beautiful.

  • GIZE! We all have different taste in music. If you don't like it just move onto some music you do like. At least you're trying new stuff. So yeah. What've we learned? Very little. I'm drunk. If it wasn't for spell check you gize'd have no chance of reading this!

  • This song is like brie cheese. At first no one really likes it, then you keep trying it until you're in love.

  • Description....."if you haven't *caught it yet...."

  • 0:22 Is a beautiful picture, not that the rest aren't

  • excellent cover

  • That awkward moment when the cover is better than the original...

  • @idontjudge2 all her covers are better than the original though

  • @idontjudge2 Its a good cover, but the original is much better.

  • @idontjudge2 no awkwardness here then :)

  • @idontjudge2 its not?

  • @idontjudge2 Defiantly not.

  • @idontjudge2 You're a fucking retard.. obviously never listened to the original. How can some rug muncher with no talent ever be on par with the Cold War Kids?

  • @Warlock952 Wow calm down , Insults people! Thats a very hateful comment please calm down theyre both good bands , and after all its just a song , and shes a human being too calm down people. If youve got a problem with that go spread hate somewhere else and good day small minded people

  • @RecamZero Fuck off you would-be councillor. I'm entitled to my opinion without being called narrow or small minded. And actually, it's a FACT. Not an opinion. Florence has pretty much no talent, in fact she would be nowhere without the extensive promotion her father has produced. The CWC's version, the original and best, it incredible and brought a lot of people to tears because of the beautiful lyrics. Do you think this version had the same effect? No.

  • @Warlock952 Lets see then ,I never said No free opinions ,You can have all the free opinion you want but dont say it so hatefully ,theres a fine line to when free opinions are free opinions and hateful declarations.So to you I say so far youve acted as if youve got the only free opinion in the world and the world revolves around you , other people have opinions. Also 'free opinion' work 2 ways , so as long as you respect other opinions which you havent. Not every body has the same taste as you

  • @RecamZero So you mean we have freedom of speech, yet we have to be careful as to not offend anyone? Yeah right, go fuck yourself.

  • @Warlock952 Well actually yeah ! See you have brought up free speech , personally I don't think the whole free speech concept is good some opinions are wrong , but if you believe in Free speech and Free opinions and everyone's right concept as you've so blatantly proven then you have to respect others as well

  • @RecamZero Go to Zimbabwe then you little dictator.

  • @Warlock952 Insults now? Seems I have defeated you , As I said SOME free speech is wrong , such as a statement like You should all kill yourselves because I said so or for the don't bash until you try concept Have you ever put your head under a moving trucks wheel ? You don't now until you've tried it! Plus You were the one using but not condoning free speech , from where I am standing you would be better for the job

  • She makes this song much more somber with that amazing voice of hers.

  • @RyukRedApple Its ok, its just a COVER! lol :)

  • @RyukRedApple Check out Cold War Kids original verison.

  • @RyukRedApple why? its so pretty and the way her voice dances with the music and the beat, it left me speechless

  • @RyukRedApple This is my favourite cover by her. Don't ruin the song with your stupid comments that no one wants to hear.

  • @RyukRedApple thats because she didnt write it... it was originally done by the cold war kids...

  • @RyukRedApple  What? It's amazing. Well I guess it' just how you interpret it. . . . Hmmh / /

  • @RyukRedApple you are an idiot

  • @RyukRedApple it is about HER singing.... close your eyes and enjoy her voice. XD

  • @RyukRedApple Booo.. How can you not like it.. It's Cold War Kids.

  • The original is better but I´m glad Florence did the cover and not some pop singer

  • no dude original is way better, first part is annoying cause her voice isn't that good.

  • @imonster242DRohrer44 " her voice isn't that good"?! do you even now what means having a good voice? cos if you did u wouldn't say such silly thing son

  • @prettygirlx4 her voice is brilliant have you heard her live? practically the same

  • @prettygirlx4 wait that was suppost to go to the douche bag who said she sucked LOL:)

  • @irockbandtees101 I don't understand your coment, because i made a response for the right person so your probably confused don't know :S

  • @prettygirlx4 ok you know how you were defending florence, because the @imonster242DRohrer44 said she was a bad singer? i was deffending her too but it accedently went to you instead of @imonster242DRohrer44

    LOL:)

  • @imonster242DRohrer44 I think her voice is amazing at the begining. And you'd know she was a brilliant singer just by the fact that you probally couldn't do better......... no one beats Florence! She could challenge God with that voice!............x

  • @utubeusernameish uhmm. . . no. LoL i know its a cover and so should everyone else. (:

  • @FlorenceisaMachine Maybe some people do not know of the band "Cold War Kids", so they would think this is an original Florence song. You can't assume everyone knows when it's a cover or an original song.

  • @FlorenceisaMachine I think you should put that this is a Cod War Kids cover in the title. I didn't even know that it was until I read the comments and heard it right after listening to the original. Also, when I started to type "hospital beds" into the Youtube search bar, it suggested Florence + the Machine before the Cold War Kids which I don't think is fair to the Cold War Kids.

  • @FlorenceisaMachine yes, thanks for that awesome reply

  • @soludare92 UHHHHHHMMM excuse me was there supposed to be some HOStility implied in your comment?? I caught alittle sarcasm there. If there is , you need to take it away from my video cuz, im not havin it.

  • @FlorenceisaMachine haha it may come of that way but I was being serious, 'Hospital Beds' is one of the Cold War Kids most prominent songs and I kind of expect most people to know it.

  • @FlorenceisaMachine and also, stop being too sensitive.

  • @FlorenceisaMachine He's saying you're trying to pass this off as your own song, even in your video description

  • @FlorenceisaMachine it doesn't seem there was considering it was a different person from the origanal commenter they seem to merely be congratulating your answer

  • @FlorenceisaMachine Sorry, but you can't expect everyone to know that. I'd put it in the title if I were you...

  • this is not a fact but in my oppinion this is sooo much better than the original

    

  • 1:14 is an epic pic.

  • Ok, I like the original song and arrangement better, but I would rather that the girl from Florence and the Machine be singing it. Her voice is so much stronger and it is piercing.

  • aaahh, so much passion <3

  • Not as good as the original, but her voice is amazingggg

  • it's not 'by Florence..' but by Cold War Kids n covered by Florence. Like better the oryginal though.

  • hahhahahaa..she is so amazing! in the beggining of the song she is singing a bit out of tune,but she adjusts immidiately! hahaha LOOOOVE FLOOOOO

  • i'm addicted to this cover

  • Pretty sweet cover of Cold War Kids' original.

  • which album is this from?

  • @katertots87 Florence only has one album out currently and it's originally by Cold War Kids, if you didn't see the name plastered everywhere else in the comments.

  • 2:01 pix really pretty

  • she is so talented she makes me miss a breath

  • @braig100 she makes me miss a breath! this is the phrase i've been looking for! describes the way i feel when i listen to that divine voice!
