+cherry11235 lol ikr, i was just listening to music whilst gaming,and this lovely gem came, ive never of this guy before but im listening to everything he has now
Hey there! My name is Louis and I'm a disabled vet from Detroit and had recently gone thru a hard time. Your music.. like always.. helped me get thru it as well as pushed me to be a better musician. I have a new song Leaking I just put on here that you all were a major influence on, and I'd love it if you could take 4 minutes out of your day to hear it. Thank you for everything!
Honestly can I just thank you for making my school life so much better. I couldn't pay attention, stay focused, or do any type of homework before, but now I just bop through the day with my headphones in and my grades are thanking me for it. your music helps me so much more than you know. keep up the great jams
HAPPY 50M, Nick! 😭 Thanks for this wonderful mistake. You've come a long way and shouldn't be sorry that so many people still associate you with this cover; perhaps you and "No Diggity" will always be compossible, and that's totally beyond your control, but that is so only because of your originality and craftsmanship, which kinda made it your own. It's not where you take things from - it's where you take them to, as Godard once said. "No Diggity" is also the first song I've ever heard from you, and I'm grateful that it introduced me to the fantabulous human and artist you turned out to be. Congrats on an astounding career anyway and keep 'em coming!
this song is the reason i wish more artist did covers honestly, it can sound different and still be good and respectful towards the originals, and i truly wish more artist had the balls to try.
First thing that comes to mind with this song for me is a warm, sunny summer, hanging out in a boat with your mates, having a couple beers and not a single responibility to commit to ❤️
He's not struggling. If you're vocally trained then you can tell he's on pitch. Every other interesting characteristic of his tone is what makes him unique. He's singing like himself, not like someone taught him to. And there's a time for both types of singers, people like you and people like him. Just don't judge him by how you would sing the song, cause he isn't going to do that. It's an excellent cover with a lot of soul
he's fucking perfect on this one. such a great choice in a cover too. it kind of reinvents it, or should I say, it expounds upon the original intention.
Very few covers sound better than the original and for sure this is one of those rare instances when it does. Another of these rare events that immediately comes to my mind is Depeche Mode doing Bowie's Heroes.
I listened to a lot of jazz and I was a big fan of Chet Baker and the way he sang, when he moved into mainstream singing. He had this really fragile vocal style-this really, broken, close-up and intimate style. The name is kind of just an ode to Chet Baker and the mood of music he used to play-something I would like to at least attempt to play homage to in my own music.
Lyrics Shorty get down, good Lord Baby got 'em open all over town Strictly biz, she don't play around Cover much ground, gettin' paid by the pound Gettin' paid is her forte Each and every day, two player way I can't get her out of my mind I think about the girl all the time East side to the west side Pushin' phat rides causing no surprise She got tips in the stash Stacking up the cash Fast when it comes to the gas By no means average She's on when she's got to have it Baby, you're a perfect ten I like the way you work it No diggity, I gotta bag it up I like the way you work it No diggity, I gotta bag it up I like the way you work it No diggity, I gotta bag it up I like the way you work it No diggity, I gotta bag it up She's got class and style Street knowledge by the mile Baby never act wild She's very low key on the profile Catchin' vilians is a no Let me tell you how it goes Curves the words, spins the verbs Lovers it curves so freak what you heard Hey yo, hey yo, hey yo, hey yo Hey yo, hey yo, hey yo, hey yo Hey yo, hey yo, hey yo, hey yo Oh, man, that girl look good Hey, yo, hey yo, hey yo, hey yo I like the way you work it No diggity, I gotta bag it up I like the way you work it No diggity, I gotta bag it up I like the way you work it No diggity, I gotta bag it up I like the way you work it No diggity, I gotta bag it up
It had been so long since I'd heard the original, that two years ago when my friend put this on a playlist, I thought that was it. But then this week I was listening to some old hip-hop and R&B and I was honestly chocked to hear it again. So yeah, just discovering this was a cover when I knew the original.
KevOnStage knows the truth. Love Chet.. Goodness. His sound is the kind where you sit down in a partially lit venue, snipping off the end of a cigar, light it slowly and rock away.
Seen this man live a few times now, just him and his piano. So very real, made love to his instrument. Whenever he's at a festival I tell people he's the headliner over whoever actually is.😂
Was in Vegas eating at a restaurant when this came on. Sitting there singing the words but not recognizing this version. Totally love this cover. This used to be my song back in the day. Brings me back to my childhood. Love when a song can still resonate with you as you grow into adulthood.

If you don't already know it be sure to check out Depeche Mode (Highline Session) covering Bowie's Heroes.
You should listen to AnnenMayKantereit's covers!
This is one of my favorites! This version too. Been trippin on it for two years, and can't get enough!
Chet Faker and Flume are a match made in heaven! love this song and left alone and drop the game :)
Flume did the instrumental?
Hey I really enjoyed your comment.
Bit weird Kevin
tbanks201276 nope, he didn't
Chet Faker is not just talented in singing, but also in producing

Huge fan of Blackstreets version, so was surprised to learn of this version! Good music evolves and this is going on my playlist!!

I cannot believe I have never heard this version of this song until today! I am completely in love 😍 😍
I’ve never understood asmr but the beginning of this song with the sound alternating between left and right audio channels just gave me shivers
KevOnStage is the reason I’m here - Dope groove
Dyanna SAME!
If ever owned an upbeat gallery, this is the kind of music I'd have playing in the background. love it

I can't believe how a great song like this can even exist! No matter how many times I listen to it, its like the first time I'm hearing it.
2020 and this incredible song moves me like it's the first time, like it's 2011 again. ❤️
Completely another dimension to a song! This is one of those that are better than original.His voice is like a sweet toxic. Perfection!
Very few covers sound better than the original and for sure this is one of those rare instances when it does. Another of these rare events that immediately comes to my mind is Depeche Mode doing Bowie's Heroes.
3 million views amazing! Love to see he is finally getting his due recognition
I can never get over this song. Gets me everytime.
Discovered this song at my job. My co-worker Shazam'ed it and I've been hooked ever since. Chill song 😌👌🏽
La mezcla de los instrumentos , la voz , las letras todo es P E R F E C T O!!!!!!! Buen Artista!!
Chet Faker is a great contributor toward the electronic groove movement.
always get nervous about covers of classics but this is damn good.
this came up on my hozier playlust on pandora and since then it's my new favorite song...

Saw him live last Sunday in India.. First time I've ever heard him.. What a genius!!

Good one pal
This song is simply PERFECT. Like be in the sky.
It took me this long to realize this is a cover. Well it's the best cover.
Theres some covers that remake and change the genre. Riders on the rain by snoop is one that immediately comes to mind.
Sooo amazing!!!! ❤ fell in love with your voice 😍❤
It still amazes me that this is a cover. When I first heard it I had no clue
The best cover I ever heard
codfish's is better
I didn't even realise this was a cover until now. Your version is my fav though. Love it! :)
Gen Xr here. This song hits harder at the wee hours of the morning! BlackStreet cover here is PHENOMENAL!~
This man has class and is a legend of his songwriting and the man has a ridiculous incredible voice. He's so unique. This is real music right here.

esta canción me relaja demasiado♡
This music makes me feel home, I don't know why, but it's ridiculously good
this is a super beautiful and chill cover to song i loved growing up. thanks for sharing.
This is awesome.Great vibes. It also made me think of Shuggie Ottis. Someone had given me a CD of his and I just now realized he was from the '70s!
Lyrics
Shorty get down, good Lord
Baby got 'em open all over town
Strictly biz, she don't play around
Cover much ground, gettin' paid by the pound
Gettin' paid is her forte
Each and every day, two player way
I can't get her out of my mind
I think about the girl all the time
East side to the west side
Pushin' phat rides causing no surprise
She got tips in the stash
Stacking up the cash
Fast when it comes to the gas
By no means average
She's on when she's got to have it
Baby, you're a perfect ten
I like the way you work it
No diggity, I gotta bag it up
I like the way you work it
No diggity, I gotta bag it up
I like the way you work it
No diggity, I gotta bag it up
I like the way you work it
No diggity, I gotta bag it up
She's got class and style
Street knowledge by the mile
Baby never act wild
She's very low key on the profile
Catchin' vilians is a no
Let me tell you how it goes
Curves the words, spins the verbs
Lovers it curves so freak what you heard
Hey yo, hey yo, hey yo, hey yo
Hey yo, hey yo, hey yo, hey yo
Hey yo, hey yo, hey yo, hey yo
Oh, man, that girl look good
Hey, yo, hey yo, hey yo, hey yo
I like the way you work it
No diggity, I gotta bag it up
I like the way you work it
No diggity, I gotta bag it up
I like the way you work it
No diggity, I gotta bag it up
I like the way you work it
No diggity, I gotta bag it up
What about the end you messed it up 🤣
got game by the pound not getting paid by the pound
PQP eu amo esse homem! 💙
awesome!!! i really loved this version... kind of mystical mind flight
7 years old today and still going strong. Thank you, Nick! ^_^
I totally approve this cover!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️
this is one of the sickest songs I've ever heard.
*It works because it's a chill cover, but also because he pronounces the words chill and not corny.*
Daamn i knew the original one but this one is 🔥🔥🔥🔥 gooottt daaamnn

Heard it in a coffeshop in amsterdam and love it since then just amazing.

It's like some alt-country version of the song. It's perfect for a weekend morning cool-out.
Ditto!
Same love this version
Kevonstage is the reason I came to this video. Now, I'm glad I did.💙
El volumen nunca es suficiente cuando pongo está obra de arte!
I just discovered Chest last night. A good friend sent me this song and its amazing ^^
I know this is a cover but honestly.. He made the song his own.
thats the only true responsibility one has when doin a cover... (ya know, aside from any royalty issues...)
well DUH, this song only covers the 2nd verse without the self-aware name drop of Blackstreet, almost not a cover, almost half-assed
i love the blackstreet version but this just hits perfectly.
KevOnStage knows the truth. Love Chet.. Goodness. His sound is the kind where you sit down in a partially lit venue, snipping off the end of a cigar, light it slowly and rock away.
Hi from a new fan! I love your work dude.

Not quite a new song, because... cover, but this is a goodie though.
