Jesus Christ what a bloody cover!!!!! When his voice drops on ‘fire’😱😱😍😍

There's a really beautiful story behind this gig let me tell you: The radio station organized something called a line check. It meant that you had to stay on the phone as long it was needed to win. The only thing was only one person could win. The person who won was able to bring along only 50 people. The guy who won this gig stayed on the phone for like 140 hours straight which also meant he also broke the world record for most expensi... uhh I mean longest phone call ever. The guy who won had a girlfriend. The stepfather of his girlfriend went to Pinkpop in 2012 and took a CD with him back home from Mumford and Sons. They all liked the music back home. Then the stepfather of his girlfriend promised him and his girlfriend "We are going to a Mumford and Sons concert one day!". Sadly about a year and a half before this gig the stepfather heard he had cancer. One year later he passed away. The music of Mumford and Sons was also played at his funeral. So wasting those 140 hours of his life wasn't much of a waste at all. He did it all for his girlfriend and her stepfather. He kept the promise but made it even bigger. And as he said with his last words of his long phone call "ONLY LOVE WINS IN THE END!"

That lower tone Marcus drops on the “Fire” stops your soul dead cold! Amazing.

I always felt the song needed to be longer. Its simply haunting.

This song is so intrinsically beautiful that every cover I've heard of it is just amazing. Including this one.

No one can sing this song like Bruce Springsteen, but man you guys just blew me away with this version....amazing

The 'on fire' is so gravelly and deep just class

His voice dropping an octave on "fire" is pantydropping...

That voice is pure gold

Only stumbled across this song and must’ve listened to it 40 times in the last three days

Mumford does great covers.... This Is easily their best, Its subtle how fantastic it is... it's literally revisionist, so fantastic.

Best dressed anybody???

What a raw song isn't it,pure raw emotion to the point.

Oh Lord! I love the way he growls the word “fire”.🔥👩🏻‍🦳

Mumford & Sons. Those vocals coming together, is when goosebumps happen.

PASSION ALWAYS WINS THROUGH IN WHAT EVER WE DO AND THIS IS PASSION AT ITS BEST !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!WELL DONE LADS YOU ARE WINNERS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There is only one word to describe this: beautiful.

I love Mumford and Sons with my whole heart and this cover is really great

I can't believe this mans voice mumfords are just so talented ....I need to express myself better because they are beyond my words

Love the cover !! Though there is a part where Springsteen delivers a throaty " I'm on fire " that just cannot be replicated or topped . That voice though !!

on man, I've loved this song for so long, first growing up in a house of springsteen fans, then becoming a mumford and sons fan, then hearing this performed at one of their concerts (acoustic, all around one mic), and now the recording is stunning.

In MY opinion, the most seductive version of this song… wonderful.

Love this cover 🎉

0:26...I am definitely the one on fire 🔥

Love Mumford & Sons ❤

I never thought anyone could come close to Bruce however you guys have changed that view....well done guys, well done ! and from the 1:50 point, mate some of the most brilliant tone I've ever heard, I've rewound it about a billion times and the hair on my arms and neck stand up everytime......JUST BRILLIANT !!! And that very subtle voice crack at 2:10 - AMAZING mate 👍👍👍👍

Listening to this version cut straight through my soul - amazing. x

Have mercy.....Marcus is amazing.

His voice + the WHOLE song= destiny colliding with art 🤯🥰 , it tickles my nose and toes hearing the line "I'm on fire". Whoever's idea it was for them to cover this👏🙌

Bucky Barnes thinks he’s slick over there on that banjo

Get this on streaming services!!!! Please x

Love this dude, what a musician.

Wow!

The way he drops his voice when he hits "fire" is a really interesting choice. Totally works, though. This is a good cover.

Every time I hear a cover of this song, the lyric is ALWAYS changed from "skull" to "soul"! He says the middle of my skull, e'rbody! Love M & S, but Bruce will always be my MAN

What an arrangement, top work lads and that lower register Marcus is just sublime.

When a classic is done well......Fair play and well in.. I'll listen once a week...🥃🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

these guys are so good live...

This song was recorded at one of their shows like 5 year ago...changed my life...clearly others cuz the video disappeared. This one, a more beautiful version, just began existing. So happy.

Brings me back to when I saw them perform this in Simcoe at one of the Stopovers. What a wonderful time I had. I always remember every time I see Mumford live.

Fabulous-great to see young fans getting into it -they will dig deeper

A FANTASTIC version of a great song That's the perfect Springsteen-song for this band

The most amazing thing about this video is no one is looking at their cell phone.

One of the best bands I have ever seen live. 🖤

My favorite song ☺️♥️

God i miss these boys!!!!!!!!

i saw them play this live about 7 years ago in 5th grade, it became one of my favorite songs, i finally find this cover on youtube 10 months after i came out :)

Amazing music I 💕 all harmony on the song soft and subtle.

I love Mumford and Sons with my whole heart and this cover is really great I wanted Marshall to cut loose on the banjo, but he never did. Oof, that video description

Mumble and Sons gentrifying another classic.

I am Fire... And you're still the Sun! 🌌🌟💕💜💕🌟🌌

Glasses in the background is super hot. Great cover too.

Awesome

Exactly what I need rn. Amazing cover

Lyrics: Hey little girl, is your daddy home? Did he go away and leave you all alone? Mhmm I got a bad desire Oh oh oh, I'm on fire Tell me now, baby, is he good to you? And can he do to you the things that I do? Oh no I can take you higher Oh oh oh, I'm on fire Sometimes it's like someone took a knife, baby Edgy and dull and cut a six inch valley Through the middle of my skull At night I wake up with the sheets soaking wet And a freight train running through the middle of my head Only you can cool my desire Oh oh oh, I'm on fire Oh oh oh, I'm on fire Oh oh oh, I'm on fire Woo ooh ooh Woo ooh ooh Ooh ooh ooh Woo ooh ooh Woo ooh ooh

Love his voice!!!!

This cover is awesomeness

I’m in love ❤️ and also sad when I listen this version of “I’m on fire”...it kills me softly

Hearing this for the first time thanks to a KZfaq rabbit hole. What an incredible song and performance

MAGIC

killing me softly with his song...

Love it!

A softer, version of the Springstein classic. Very nice.

OMG it's not often you get a cover better than the original but WOW this one of those.

Oh my stars. 💜 from Texas

A great cover of one of my favourite songs...💖💖💖

Amazingly outstanding!! One of the best covers ever

Wow in terms of that voice, tone and rhythm

PUT THIS ON SPOTIFY Get this on streaming services!!!! Please x

Restrained, intimate, tight.

I think David Le’aupepe (Gang of Youths) and Mumford should do this cover together. 🔥

So beautiful....gives me the shivers

Once in a very long time, someone comes along and improves on the original. Congratulations!

That was wonderful.

Beautiful performance

Amazing musicianship. I'm in love❤

Great version, no one who put out his handy , only listeners who celebrate the performance.

I love this song and couldn't believe that they covered it

This guy sounds better than Bruce Springsteen 💯💯💯

Never a big fan of Bruce Springsteen nor Mumford & Sons, but this sends shivers

Ooooo ooooo ooooo I'm on fire

I love this song, first time I heard it was 2013. I hope they sing it more on concerts.

Your on 🔥 alright such a song and what a version

Best Boss song hands down. Only wish it was longer.

this is one of those songs that sounds the best with male vocals...it is such a masculine yet beautifully put together a song for a man to sing.

Perfect 💓

Love it God bless

This is so amazing, it makes me physically ill. Damn, I love these lads! 😍😭

Wow just wow 😍💋

Marcus, Ted, Ben (Winston, u too) you are Fire in the Soul!!!
