Im Morgan freeman and i approve this band.

Bastille-teaching us Greek/Roman mythology since 2011

Bastille is one of the bands who sound as good live as they sound on their album.

They're so down to earth, that's why I love this band. I mean, how many bands nowadays do you see doing this kind of stuff?

Why are people hating on people that found them by their mainstream songs? Surely you should be happy that people have found the same band that you like. It makes no sense that you dislike people that like the same stuff that you do. Stop hating on people and just enjoy the music.

It's a shame that most people only listen to the most popular songs like Pompeii, Flaws, Bad Blood and Things We Lost In The Fire. They're missing out on some of Bastille's greatest songs like this, Poet, These Steeets, Laughter Lines, Skulls and The Silence ❤️

Bastille is superb, but daaaang, Dan Smith is incredibly captivating and has extraordinary talent.

I've always loved icarus but it now has a new meaning to me, when I was at their gig I made eye-contact with Will several times and when the song ended he blew a kiss at me, it was the best night of my life

The way Dan's face scrunches up when he hits those certain notes is both adorable and something to compliment on. He and the others look like their having a hell of a time. It's one of the things I love about acoustic performances.

Look who's digging their own grave That is what they all say You'll drink yourself to death Look who makes their own bed Lies right down within it And what will you have left? Out on the front doorstep Drinking from a paper cup You won't remember this Living beyond your years Acting out all their fears You feel it in your chest [Pre-Chrous] Your hands protect the flames From the wild winds around you [Chorus 1] Icarus is flying too close to the sun And Icarus' life, it has only just begun It's just begun [Verse 2] Standing on the cliff face Highest fall you'll ever grace It scares me half to death Look out to the future But it tells you nothing So take another breath [Pre-Chorus] [Chorus 2] Icarus is flying too close to the sun And Icarus's life, it has only just begun This is how it feels to take a fall Icarus is flying towards an early grave [Bridge] You put up your defenses when you leave You leave because you're certain Of who you want to be You're putting up your armor when you leave You leave because you're certain Of who you want to be [Chorus 2]

Do anyone realise this Band makes hits effortlessly? Lyrics mind bothering, poetry leaves u dumbfounded, grace and pitch. WOW

coming back this is so nostalgic, i used to watch it all the time when i was 10 or so. my wifi sucked so it would buffer all the time, but i was persistent bc i loved the song so much!

Poor Icarus. Has anyone here heard his story? With Daedelus? It's so sad. This video was awesome, I love Bastile!

....he's literally hitting his lap and sounds better than most drummers with a full kit 😲

okay i never comment on KZfaq ever but i just love this band so much bc they literally only have a guitar and their voices and their bodies and they still make magic like this. blows my mind @ the chorus oh my goodnesssss

Bastille is love Bastille is life

lovin the green socks

this band just doesn't need auto tune, dan is up there with talent

I am still having difficulties understanding how a human can have a beautiful voice like that... Therefore, Dan isn't human. He has got to be like a god or something.

And this, ladies and gentlemans.. :) is music!

Bastille is the only band I feel that deserves the hype it gets. All of their songs are meaningful

No human can sing this beautifully, videos like this lead me to believe Dan isn't human

oh my god how has it been 5 years

I like how some of their songs are about myths or historical events.

Bastille is a great band, their songs are so profound it's amazing!

I’m crying rn bc this is my most favorite song from Bastille and I love them with all of my heart🙌🏼

Bastille is love. Bastille is life. Extra verse: Bastille is everything.

Love how they all join in at the chorus. They're such an amazing band.

Why did I just find this.. I'm so in love

Yep, that's exactly how I play along to this song, thumping the beat out on whatever is closest, usually myself.

How can this be so good!?

Through such acoustic versions,you can see that bastille is easy one of the best livebands. i

i am so much touched by their voices and acoustic sounds effects. beautifully harmonized

Thanks to them I cant have one favorite song I have like 10 and they are all by them bastille is amzing

i've missed listening to these guys i used to be so obsessed omg idk what happened

I am so impressed with the consistency of his voice and the authenticity of the music. Love love love this band.

Bastille are the best wow their amazing. Dan Smith ❤❤❤ I love you all so much!!!! 💕💕💕💫

i saw them yesterday night live: their performance is so strong! and Dan really tries to be as close to his audience as possible :D and when they played this song i was on cloud 9!!!

I can't believe this video is 3 yrs old already

i love how you are amazing without "professional" equipment that many people have nowadays. keep making these beautiful covers!! :)

Forever my favorite song by Bastille💛

God Dan is sooooo good at singing!!! And he's not a idiot and doesn't use auto tune

Dan's voice is so powerful and good. They're so amazing.

I saw them last weekend in Birmingham and met them after the gig....you will not be disappointed. They are excellent live and a really nice bunch of blokes. Enjoy the gig

They are the bests ♥♥ Dan's voice is the best !!

I love the story of Icarus and once I found this song it easily became my favorite 😍😄

Why do I like His socks so much? :D

Best BAND EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!:D

LOOK AT THEM NOW. SO HAPPY FOR THEM

i love Bastille bc they can make beautiful music only wih a guitar :)

omfg their studio and live versions are both amazing...

OKAY. I Love bastille because #1: DAN DOESNT USE AUTOTUNE AND HE IS AMAZING LIVE #2: He is so caring and has done LOTS of things for charity!!!!

OMG! I just can't love them more... ♥

Dan Smith's voice is already such perfection but with the harmonies of everyone else... shivers.

I love his voice!! I love how he doesn't loose his accent when he sings!

I really love how every one of them sings and contributes to the instrumentals :')

Dan's voice is perfect omf 😍

I've slowly fell in love with this band. I wish they'd come to Florida

Dan's socks hahahaha, man i love you! Bastille is perfection. ♥

Dan's hair really is a spectacle of magnificence.

I was studying in my college library when I randomly clicked this, now I can't stop listening and I'm going to see them live in April :D best click ever made!

Why does Dan remind me of a yawning cat at 1:18?

I love watching this because it shows how far they've come..they started out small and now they're nominated for a grammy.

This video was the reason I first fell in love with this band.

Me and my friends listened to this song in Latin class because we we were reading the myth about Icarus and his father!! Love it!

So long since I’ve seen this amazing band

Im just in love wth this guys. BEST BAND EVER!

This song is amaze balls, I started listening them in 2011 when I heard the song "what would you do" im addicted

This is remarkable! And Kyle's glow up is wicked

Dan's voice is so cool live... They all sound perfect! I can't wait to see them in Poland.

I love how unlike a lot of bands recently, he actually sounds as good live as in the studio.

Just saw this live 4 days ago. Beautiful doesn't cut it. I love Bastille!

They sound so good! 💜 Playing Live

I CANT EXPRESS HOW MUCH I LOVE THIS OMFG GOT IT ON REPLAY ALL NIGHT UGHHHHH I LOVE YOU

I LOVE this. I love how they're doing all the percussion on their legs and the surrounding furniture. Awesome lyrics, awesome harmony, awesome song!

Bastille is my biggest found of years. Totally in LOVE!

This is beautiful. It shows that they don't need much to make good music. I don't understand why Bastille isn't more popular.

Holy crap, I remember this, makes seeing Icarus live even better...

Oh my god, I love Bastille so much, this has always been my fave song by them.

Oh the clapping is something else in this song, deep feeling :)

That guy is such a brilliant singer. Such an acoustic voice, I'm loving it.

I love these songs because they use more harmony in it and it makes the song so much better.

Its a band that can do their brilliant pop electronic music based on technology and strip it down on a acoustic guitar and make it sound equally brilliant. Both versions are amazing. These guys are phenomenal.

The raw beauty of Dan's voice blows me away.

I rmbr watching this 8 years ago and watched them live in a small cafe

Isn't it good for them that everyone know them? Popularity isn't necessarily a bad thing. If there is talent out there, it should be shared with everyone so we can all appreciate it.

Their live performances are amazing; I love how they get so into the songs when they perform.

He's just sitting there, singing like that, like it isnt a big deal. Like his voice isnt making me emotional. Ahhhhh so good!!!

I love the voice😍

this was the first song i heard by them and i had it stuck on repeat for months. this song is my jam. still one of the best they made, for sure.

I have a VERY strong feeling that these guys are classics nerds - as a fellow classic nerd and classics uni student, I approve!

His voice... just....

My god i love them so!!! I'll be a Stormer for life

His talent and amazing lyrics (; BASTILLE FOREVER

In love with this guy !!!

they look so incredibly happy when they sing i just cant help smiling

So happy to finally see them in April in Paris. Such a perfect voice with a lot of emotions, so great.

I am seriously surprised they haven't blown up yet. Love their cover of "What Would You Do?" as well.

I seriously love this with my whole life!
