As a huge Biffy and Kate Bush fan, this is perfection ❤️
yeah, so as I stumble upon this I find myself in what must b some fantastical heavenly dreamscape that exists only to serve my deepest longings. The Best front man ever singing a tune from the Immortal KB catalogue.... Like someone Must Have made a deal w god... 💚🤘♋
It's really good. It has shades of an uptempo version of Placebo's cover of this song too. You should check that one out as well.
go and listen to the placebo version...seriously
but mon the biff
Placebo is perfection :D This was great though! Such a more hopefull take on the song. Like "We should do this to make it better".
Brilliant cover Simon can sing anything.,.... mon the biff
He’s awesome
Not crazy train
@@barbramcgill7435 genious
As proved by their cover of WAP 😂
he can't sing crazy train with ozzy watching...I was scared for life!!! terrible thank goodness for miles Kennedy
Love this. I wish there was a more emotive button I could press for this rather than just "Like".
In my top 10 of all-time greatest songs. Written by Kate Bush. And covered to perfection here by this band 💫
Such an unbelievable cover. You've great taste pal 🤘
When you come from Stranger Things and Biffy Clyro is your favourite band 😍
Right 🤣
It took a Netflix series to bring your favourite bands cover to your attention? Yikes 😬Stranger things have happened 😁
@@MrSmid888 that was weirdly a good joke

@@MrSmid888 not the whole band, only Simon Neil
wow, was in stow college with biffy back in the day, very nice lads, i had a crush on the drummer
Can we take a moment to appreciate the drums in the last half- killer.
That gentleman can sing.
Ok it’s the second comment I leave under this video BUT how can Simon Neil be so perfectly raw, real and whole with anything he sings? It’s beyond me I swear I can’t get over this
Wow, I thought Brian Molko/Placebos was the best cover but the emotional feels from the Biff, Lord have mercy.
thank you youtube algorithm to sending me this
Come here almost everyday to hear this 🙌❤️
A great job done on this KB song from my fellow Ayrshireman. Very impressive.
I normally don't do cover songs... But I'm obsessed with Simon Neil!!! All things BIFFY!!! Mon the biff!
Unmistakably Biffy, but handled with care to keep it faithful to Kate, feckin brilliant.
But this isn’t Biffy, it’s Simon, Biffy’s covers are usually a complete new take on the original
This is brutal: the singer, the musicians,... It's awesome. Wow!
Such a talented dude. Complete one off ❤
Simon Neil and the boys are world class, the Scottish will inherit the Earth! And so will we all❤️
this is so good 🤘 but you must hear “Whispering Wolf” by SLT 🎸🎶🐺
lol not if this is their best.
A stunning take on a classic. Musically outstanding to add a different tone and vibe to the original song, and Simon’s voice lends itself brilliantly to this cover. Beautiful
Simon nailed this.
Simon's voice is absolutely perfect for this. Chills!
The best version
this is so good 🤘 but you must hear “Whispering Wolf” by SLT 🎸🎶🐺
This is such a perfect song for Simon to sing
Simon is a gentleman and Acts like one🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
The Best male version of this GREAT SONG. Thanks KATE.
Brilliant! I totally enjoyed this version of one of the greatest songs of all time. Thanks to Stranger Things for enriching a whole new generation with the best 80s music and to Biffy for this live version.
wtf just searching rock versions of this song then i stumbled upon this gem
This needs to be uploaded to major music apps
Best cover of this track for me
Logged in only to give a "like" , I was listening without logging, but it rightly deserves.
Of all the covers.... This is the best.
THE BEST male version of this great song..... GREAT. Thanx..... SLAVA UKRAINI.....
You might be right. This is more a cover of Placebo's cover of the song, in my opinion, but it is good enough to stand on its own.
Героям слава 💙💛
@@OrthodoxAtheist I just , MUST go to listen this Placebos version, of this marveullous song by Kate.
Must say. Never heard no song ever from Biffy Clyro, never ever heard son from Placebo. Sorry , i am old punkrocker, and i dont listen these nowadays favourite artists. But... Great anyways...
Possibly my favorite cover
Such a good rendition, and I love that i can actually sing along with this and not stretch my voice as much lol
As a Kate Bush fan for ages, and Biffy Clyro being my favourite rock band, this is a dream come true! I'd love them to do more of her art with their own twist on it, that's something I would buy immediately!!!!!😃
this is so good 🤘 but you must hear “Whispering Wolf” by SLT 🎸🎶🐺
OMGI keep listening to all the versions, so amazing, and all equally brilliant, what an amazing sing to be done justice by so mayy fantastic artists.
Simons killing all these vocal appearances - this is 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Best fuckin' cover I've ever heard of this song!!! Wow
th-cam.com/video/Ir161aw9tV4/w-d-xo.html
biffy clyro + running up that hill = perfection!
This isn’t Biffy though
Best cover version of this great song by far 👌
And all they need to do is release it on iTunes now 😊
I dig the imperfection in the performance. Very human.
Absolutely amazing. The way his voice struggles back and forth yet he clearly thinks so hard, so fast on how to best handle every single note is so satisfying and makes me wanna listen to it forever. Most singers do the exact same but their problem is their voice is TOO good and often float off too effortlessly so there's less room for variety. (for my taste)
You’re like me - it’s all about that raw talent. Not too clean, not perfect, just raw.
That’s exactly it the fact he has to put 110% into every syllable makes it perfect
💯 Such an amazing, distinctive voice.
I’ve noticed this at biffy gigs recently it’s not “perfection” but it’s real, it’s raw and it’s talent. Always the real deal with Simon and the boys
They did this with great respect. Kudos.
As a massive Kate Bush fan and huge fan of this song in particular I've got l to say this is awesome. Yep pretty damn impressive. Been waiting for a decent male version of this and he nails it perfectly.
So fucking good, best cover of this song so far
I'm sure the Placebo fanbase will disagree with but I have to agree.
@@widexawake_ I love Biffy Clyro and Placebo. I like Placebos version slightly more.
th-cam.com/video/Ir161aw9tV4/w-d-xo.html
Spot on. Love Biffy Clyro!
He seems to never coast. Always 100%.
Run max !!
It doesn't hurt me.
Do you want to feel how it feels?
Do you want to know that it doesn't hurt me?
Do you want to hear about the deal that I'm making?
You, it's you and me.
If I only could,
I'd make a deal with God,
And I'd get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
Be running up that building.
If I only could,
You don't want to hurt me,
But see how deep the bullet lies.
Unaware I'm tearing you asunder.
Ooh, there is thunder in our hearts.
Is there so much hate for the ones we love?
Tell me, we both matter, don't we?
You, you and me.
It's you and me won't be unhappy.
If I only could,
I'd make a deal with God,
And I'd get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
Be running up that building,
If I only could, oh
You, you and me.
It's you and me won't be unhappy.
C'mon, baby, c'mon darling,
Let me steal this moment from you now.
C'mon, angel, c'mon, c'mon, darling,
Let's exchange the experience,
And if I only could,
I'd make a deal with God,
And I'd get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
With no problems.
If I only could,
I'd make a deal with God,
And I'd get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
With no problems.

Thanks 🤘🏽
Brilliant!.....just Brilliant!
He's da bomb 💣 🎉❤
The drummer was on point!
Love that cover his voice is unreal
this is so good 🤘 but you must hear “Whispering Wolf” by SLT 🎸🎶🐺
@@beezybeez4207 will check it out thanks
@@markjeffers4663 🤘🙏
Only just found this but have become obsessed, MON THE BIFF
Just wow 👌
There are so many cover versions of that fantastic song, this is one of the best. Sung withthe right emotions.
Absolutely beautiful and he brings his magic to it just like Kate did
Just when I thought the best cover was Placebo but this has blown it out of the water!
How you dare

totally smashed it love this version biffy always gives it his all
*Simon
@@olliebutton duhhhh ffs man obviously
@@olliebutton you knew who I was referring to it's all that matters smart arse
Man I love Biffy Clyro. Simon's great. Great cover
He sings this so well .... 😘
Love Kate and this song. Love Biffy. This works a treat 👍🏼
super🥰🥰
this is so good 🤘 but you must hear “Whispering Wolf” by SLT 🎸🎶🐺
Absolutely class Kate tune, class cover by Biffy, quality
Why is this version not on spotify? It's one of my favorite versions.
Absolutely fantastic
Pretty much perfect version. And is live, my goodness.
Simon always amazing
Wow that was amazing. Same passion as Kate Bush. He owned it. Great cover, couldnt have been done any better.
When Biffy are one of your favourite bands (seeing them for 4th time this November), Kate Bush is one of your all time favourite singers and this song has a personal meaning, Stranger Things brought this song to whole new audience, and you're in work on a Sunday trying to find the motivation to power through 👌🖤
I didn’t think anything could beat Placebo’s version of this, but I think Simon just did. Wow. Just wow.
th-cam.com/video/PDZNIBA0Kv4/w-d-xo.html Let's try this one and listen to the other tracks of Meg Myers

Chromatics made the best cover of this song.
is there a spotify studio or live version of ? I haven't found anything yet

@Purple Hoodie it's a matter of opinion. I don't like the lead singer. He's a creep who I witnessed get beaten up outside the Ritz for giving a girl unwanted attention. Actually said " Don't you know who I am!?" To her.
TikTok has murdered this classic. This is a great cover
Such a very, very well done cover.
I have adored Kate for forever.
I love that her legacy is continuing.
Absolutely Magical
i like how the most replayed section of the song is basically the whole thing.
It is hard to believe Kate Bush release this genius top notch music gem when she was seventeen years old. Not only this one, but Babushka, Wuthering Heights, etc. She is /was/ will be a true absolute artist.
So good! Love Kate and Simon....incredible singers/musicians. So much feeling and emotions when they sing. Just Brilliant.
Absolutamente mágico !!
so glad that Gen Z gets to enjoy this beautiful 80s song
Ay papi! Why?!? Why?!?
Song already gets me into emotional chaos. Now, I hear this version… so much conviction!
Bravo fellas, well done!
How have I only just seen this. 🤯
gosh there are so many GOOD videos on TH-cam. Just gotta search long enough. So glad I came across this one 👌🏻
This needs to be on Spotify
this song reminds me of a heartbeat, another great cover
This is a really good cover. Brings something different without trashing over the original
