Maddison Kempher I ALWAYS appreciate it when someone covering another person's song doesn't change the lyrics or the pronouns. It always takes away from the original meaning of the song imho.
I remember Bastille had a concert at the concert hall that happened to be right next to my college dorm. Imagine how it feels to be walking home alone in the middle of the night, with Bastille singing the background music to your own coming of age teen movie.
DrakeRaa "made, done, happening, or chosen without method or conscious decision." seems pretty random to me. No Scrubs is not a recent song, nor does it really sound like anything else Bastille has ever done.
david ervin People and their curse words these days. You are disrespectful. I was stating my opinion. I should be able to say an opinion without being cursed out or being called tasteless.
Jose Martinez yeah what the heck was that about? I think some people misunderstand the difference between freedom of speech and being an ass online, but now you cant even say a simple, non-hurtful, (and very true) opinion without being cursed out with a word I didnt even know! you go Jose. You just keep on keepin on and dont let dem haters bring you down

Theirs just something about the way Bastille sings it that gives it much more depth then when TLC sung it. Both sing it well but there is more layers to this one, I like it.
One of the most beautiful voices I have ever heard in my life. That song - it still does something to me years later. My admiration for it will never end.
literally been coming back and listening to this cover for about 5 years. Dan's adorable accent and singing, as in love with you as i am, is just beautiful. 😍

MadeTo InspireYou Don't be stupid. This version will never be, better than the original. You're obviously into you're culture.. But that's your opinion . Sensitive ass..
TLC's version is fun and playful but like.... Bastille made it sound so profound and magical???? How do they do this? Everything they touch turns to gold! And Dan's voice is just heavenly
Can this whole argument between which is better this or the original stop they are clearly 2 different genres of music and each appeal to different people.
I like that these guys are the sort of artists that don't need really anything done to there voices to make them sound good. Not many artists have that, a lot of them need a big fix up to sound good. I love artists like this who actually have great voices.
I love how bastille can put two completely contrasting songs together, angels is so different from no scrubs musically and literally (meaning) and its so amazing how well this works damn
I love the way they kept the lyrics but changed it in a special way and still made it amazing. I think they work amazing together and the lead singer has an amazing powerful voice. Powerful as in he takes me away with his amazing singer and has an Impact on me when he sings. He makes me think about each lyric. I really enjoyed this
I like to imagine that all Bastille members are singing in part as strong, independent men, who don't need a man to complete them. Just the thought makes this song all the more better.
I think the thing about this cover is... they bring out the emotion that's in this song that you would otherwise not hear (or that you would take for granted or never feel). I didn't even know much about these guys until a friend linked me to them; this is not really a song you'd think they'd cover but it's like they took this track and they followed some simple instructions..."One more time, with feeling." Commendable.
That was an interesting cover. I definitely wouldn't say it was better like some people have but it's different. It's almost funny to hear a song with such attitude filled lyrics to be calmed down like this. :)
I actually am in love what they've done with this. They made it their own. That's what makes some covers so great. But it helps when you love the band, of course.
I didn't listen to this expecting it to outshine TLC's version, therefore I can appreciate Bastille's take on it :D Good job, guys! You have an amazing voice!
I've seen this song in a Instagram edit and it was with your beautiful sound....I was really looking for it and I've found it......you're really so so perfect....you sing this better than its reall singer...
The accent just make everything 100% better.
ikr but i really wish he did lisa's rap verse though
ryliegh greenleaf that would have been so cool
Luiza Daniol I KNOW❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Agreed
Ohh you mean the overly forced singing accent? yeah totally.
my heart melts everytime he looks up ( 0:32 ) he looks like he has such innocence in his eyes.
Demelza Celeste IKKKK
só a cara mesmo
But no.
IKR
IM NOT THE ONLY ONE
I love the harmony when they sing, "No!" and the chorus. Beautiful. And the XX incorporation.
I think I'm in love with Dan Smith
I think everyone is
Michelle Power I used to be in love with Dan, now it's more of Jon Bellion
ThatReallyObviousNotFunnyGuy
OMGGGGGGG JON IM SORRY FOR FREAKING OUT BUT I LOVE HIM
Michelle Power I too
Michelle Power isnt everyone
it’s been 7 years and it’s still not on spotify
i am TIRED
Yeah wth :(
You tube music
But it is.....
@Rayele Marques used to be under the name No Angels.
Yay they didnt change the lyrics!!!
Maddison Kempher I ALWAYS appreciate it when someone covering another person's song doesn't change the lyrics or the pronouns. It always takes away from the original meaning of the song imho.
+HelloGudbye93 Same here ;)
👍
:)
+That Guy From That Street Freddy from elm street?
Bastille are genius at mashups. No Scrubs by TLC and Angels by The xx? WHAT?! That's insane!
i know right.
No angels
I can't wait to see what they cover next!
Bastille can make anything sound profound.
@Ryan Stewart Took the words right out of my mouth 💯
@Ryan Stewart 💯
@Ryan Stewart I was just about to say that lol. 💯
I love how they incorporated an excerpt from the XX "being as in love with you as I am..."
the guy on the right playing keyboard always looks like he's waiting for someone to attack him.
also this is awesome
OMG too true
His name is kyle.
That's Kyle. He is just focused, i think.
He's such a stiff
dmurrdock24 Once seen it can`t be unseen xD
This is one of my favourite covers of all time. Just stunning.
I remember Bastille had a concert at the concert hall that happened to be right next to my college dorm. Imagine how it feels to be walking home alone in the middle of the night, with Bastille singing the background music to your own coming of age teen movie.
Ha what a random song to have them cover. But always with Bastille, WOW. Hypnotizing vocals.
DrakeRaa "made, done, happening, or chosen without method or conscious decision."
seems pretty random to me. No Scrubs is not a recent song, nor does it really sound like anything else Bastille has ever done.
whiskey mouth that's not random. they chose the song deliberately, not through random choice
ChumKrimson every choice is a deliberate choice. but it is a random song, considering their music style. that was the point.
It would've been random if they just chose this song without thinking about it from a list of ALL the songs in the world that are ever made..
DrakeRaa
thumbs up for saying what every girl in the world should hear.
Bastille can literally make any song sound more awesome. even we can't stop by miley cyrus.
charchar0130 yeah I hated that song till Bastille covered it
This IS a good song, even before Bastille.
i think the only album of covers that i'm waiting is one from Bastille
This cover is so amazing, I can't stop listening to it!
Haha, Miley is annoying
THEY DIDN'T CHANGE THE GENDER FROM "HE" TO "SHE" I AM SO HAPPY
Mone Moore SAMEEEE
Yassssssssz
wise up
Why? What's wrong with changing the gender?
Is that what this retarded society has led you to believe? haha
#HumpDay video: Bastille don't want no scrub
Better than the original.
Jose Martinez
fuck you tasteless plebian
david ervin People and their curse words these days. You are disrespectful. I was stating my opinion. I should be able to say an opinion without being cursed out or being called tasteless.

You just keep on keepin on and dont let dem haters bring you down
david ervin Are you trying to say he is a plebeian? Because I don't think you are typing what you think you are typing...
Its been a decade & it’s still not on Spotify or Apple Music but seeing Dan perform this tonight in Tulsa was AMAZING.
on spotify it's under 'no angels' by bastille and ella eyre!!
Hey Texas x
"No Scrubs"
A scrub is a guy that thinks he's fly
And is also known as a buster
Always talkin' about what he wants
And just sits on his broke ass
So (no)
I don't want your number (no)
I don't want to give you mine and (no)
I don't want to meet you nowhere (no)
I don't want none of your time and (no)
[Chorus:]
I don't want no scrub
A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me
Hanging out the passenger side
Of his best friend's ride
Trying to holler at me
I don't want no scrub
A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me
Hanging out the passenger side
Of his best friend's ride
Trying to holler at me
But a scrub is checkin' me
But his game is kinda weak
And I know that he cannot approach me
'Cause I'm lookin' like class and he's lookin' like trash
Can't get with a dead-beat ass
So (no)
I don't want your number (no)
I don't want to give you mine and (no)
I don't want to meet you nowhere (no)
I don't want none of your time (no)
[Chorus]
If you don't have a car and you're walking
Oh yes, son, I'm talking to you
If you live at home with your mamma
Oh yes, son, I'm talking to you (baby)
If you have a shorty but you don't show love
Oh yes, son, I'm talking to you
Wanna get with me with no money
Oh no, I don't want, no (oh)
No scrub
No scrub (no, no)
No scrub (no, no, no, no, no)
No scrub (no, no)
No
[Chorus 4x]

After listening to my good friends, Bastille, I too have decided to refuse the advances of scrubs.
They performed this in their concert last night and it was absolutely beautiful.
I LOVE HIS VOICE WHEN HE SAYS "no"
me too ❤❤
One of the most beautiful voices I have ever heard in my life. That song - it still does something to me years later. My admiration for it will never end.

Bastille will always be someone who can sing a certain song and make it appears like its theirs.
Bastille singing anything just makes it sound so elegant and important and I love it
I prefer this to the original song. Bloody gorgeous!!
Good
Same
churboimjc You being racist?
MadeTo InspireYou
Don't be stupid.
This version will never be, better than the original.
You're obviously into you're culture..
But that's your opinion .
Sensitive ass..
churboimjc are you black then? if you wanna complain about me being white?
and no i just loved this version :)
TLC's version is fun and playful but like.... Bastille made it sound so profound and magical???? How do they do this? Everything they touch turns to gold! And Dan's voice is just heavenly
love how he doesnt use audio tuning at all! proves he is PERFECT!!
Can this whole argument between which is better this or the original stop they are clearly 2 different genres of music and each appeal to different people.
With all that being said
This one is still better
This one is still better
@@professionalfucktard6395 no it isnt. youre probably just white
bŕőkĕ æss
how'd he make that lyric beautiful
aj x the æ symbol you used actually makes the correct sound. Idk if you did that purposefully. I just think it’s a neat coincidence
PLSSS
THIS IS LIKE AMAZING
Seriously
both versions are great, if you were not fortunate enough to love TLC then don't worry you now have this version to introduce you to the song.
Damn I'd holler at him
Rhea Allwood 😂
After going to their Bad Blood X show last night I feel like I’ve come full circle finally getting to hear this amazing cover live ♥️
is it bad that i like this version better than tlc's
I like it better because they always give it their own twist
Bree yes and no😂
Sarah Flores yes . Left eye gave the song something special
Sarah Flores no cuz same😂
Nah, I really want a full on song from this
I can get literally addicted to his "No" 😂 I'm melting over here and its not even a live word or something like that 😂😂😂
I never knew i needed this song in his accent
OMG never heard of bastille..but the lead singer is making me melt.
That opening line tho :) #chills
I like that these guys are the sort of artists that don't need really anything done to there voices to make them sound good. Not many artists have that, a lot of them need a big fix up to sound good. I love artists like this who actually have great voices.
The point of a cover isn't to "beat" the original one...
But they did:v
not necessarily
what about Whitney Houston’s cover of I Will Always Love You by Dolly Parton? 😉
Well it did 😂
finchie_music nobody will beat Whitney you have to be out of your mind
I love how bastille can put two completely contrasting songs together, angels is so different from no scrubs musically and literally (meaning) and its so amazing how well this works damn
WHY ISNT THIS ON ITUNES
+Leilanie Rios IM SO ANGRY ABOUT THIS
are you serious? iTunes? Just fucking download it and put it on your PC / Phone
+LogzProz Some people prefer to give artists the money they worked so hard to earn.
Leilanie Rios I don'tknow
LogsPro u kinda a bitch bro
I love the way they kept the lyrics but changed it in a special way and still made it amazing. I think they work amazing together and the lead singer has an amazing powerful voice. Powerful as in he takes me away with his amazing singer and has an Impact on me when he sings. He makes me think about each lyric. I really enjoyed this
Bastille should cover every song!!
I so very much love the way they mix two songs! Love Bastille! TLC & The XX so good!
It show how much they are legends now.
love how he lifts up whenever he hits the upper notes. so real
6 years later and I still love this!! ❤️
This is still possibly one of the best covers I've ever heard. It's right up there with Ed Sheeran's cover of Dirrty
oh my god i love this, i really dont care too much of the original version... this version is definitely down my alley though!!! i need to download...
I like to imagine that all Bastille members are singing in part as strong, independent men, who don't need a man to complete them. Just the thought makes this song all the more better.
This cover was really fucking good, and then they put xx into the mix and I died. This is amaazzzzingggg
I think the thing about this cover is... they bring out the emotion that's in this song that you would otherwise not hear (or that you would take for granted or never feel). I didn't even know much about these guys until a friend linked me to them; this is not really a song you'd think they'd cover but it's like they took this track and they followed some simple instructions..."One more time, with feeling." Commendable.
wasnt this a mash up with angels by the xx too??
+MsShampoo101 tis
Yeah it was..I noticed that too
MsShampoo101 I was like wait that's angels😂
hahaha same!
It’s No angels, by Bastille ft Ella Eyre
this is the best, most heavenly, most incredible cover i've ever heard
That was an interesting cover. I definitely wouldn't say it was better like some people have but it's different. It's almost funny to hear a song with such attitude filled lyrics to be calmed down like this. :)
I thought the same thing, I think that they should stay with their genre, but it's cool how you can sing it differently.
I actually am in love what they've done with this. They made it their own. That's what makes some covers so great. But it helps when you love the band, of course.
Very GOOD Band!
wøah this was great.
TØP fan?
that i am.
spooky val hey frens
tHiS cOmMeNt HaS 69 liKeS i'M sHoOk
Bastille is KILLING it. I loved this and I loved the cover of Dreams they did with Gabrielle Aplin, as well of their cover of What Would You Do
This song is seriously timeless. Could hold up if it was redone and released next year.
I often come back to this… I just love it
This is what heaven sounds like
I love when artists cover a song from a completely different genre. It’s like hearing voice echo in a different cave.
This might be the best thing I've ever heard.
Bastille is a one and a life time group. 😍 I have been a fan since the begging
I love this so much!!!!! Live in concert is 100x better!
This is true talent. ...... it just shines.
Its a crime that this isn't on Spotify.
I cannot explain just how much I LOVE this song. It's just EPIC it just IS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this is my new favorite thing
I love how they incorporated the xx into the cover. ♥
Man, do I love them!
I love Bastille's covers so much!!!
If you missed it, now you didn't. Amazing cover by Bastille. th-cam.com/video/F1eO6OXv4lY/w-d-xo.html
I like !!
Dan Smith has the ability to take a pretty iconic song like No Scrubs and put his own twist on it to make it even better
Why isn't this on spotify :(
Thank you for being alive. Simple and clean. Thank you
It's a mash up of The XX Angels and No Scrubs
alycatmc OHHH THANK YOU
Pure focus, pays off, love it.
1:06 When you’re pretending to do work on a group project
I didn't listen to this expecting it to outshine TLC's version, therefore I can appreciate Bastille's take on it :D Good job, guys! You have an amazing voice!
Anyone else meant to be doing homework?
Me
Me wtf I'm not even into this type of music
Mee 😂
No XD its 1:58 AM for me lol
I meant to be studying for the exam 4 days later.
I love how they completely made it their own. This is super Bastille style! Great job x
I love this. It’s such a good cover ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I didn’t think I needed this cover till I heard it and now I can’t unhear it.
This cover makes my sad little gay heart feel things 😍
i just love how the melody is angels by the xx ahhh
Nice cover... hope they get famous or something.
um they are
So... no more sarcasms for 2015. :( we broke the internet again.
Alex Torres alright then
I'm years late but their new song just became rlly famous
@@tiffanycoffey5328 damn
I like it. I love it when other artis cover TLC song. I shows how much they are legends now.
oh my god this is amazing
I find people who sing with an accent very pleasing, this was fucking amazing 🏹
I finally found it 🙏🏿🙏🏿
I've seen this song in a Instagram edit and it was with your beautiful sound....I was really looking for it and I've found it......you're really so so perfect....you sing this better than its reall singer...
I don’t know who he is. But I think I’m in love
HIS ACCENT MAKES IT SO MUCH BETTER
Anyone still obsessed with this 7 years later?
they do that often though. most of their covers are mash ups. so brilliant. and his voice is just incredible
