I love that this is a response song because there's something so old school about it. I was going to say it reminded me of the Eamon Vs Frankee songs and then he went and mashed them into this response- amazing.

So refreshing to see an artist/band smiling throughout singing the song, actually enjoying what he is doing. I watched him perform in Birmingham, absolutely incredible set and such a wonderful person.

This is fantastic, how an artist is able to put there own spin on a song and possibly make it better then the originals just pure talent. I’m so upset that I never really grew up listening to Craig but ever since his big comeback I think he is one of the best artists about and I can’t to see him live.
This is just brilliant! I forgot how long Craig David has been around until I heard his first hit on the radio yesterday.....from 1999! Oh, and Laura sounds and looks good too :)
What a marvellous singer. You see how good he is live, because you can see how much he feels the music! Good to see the drummer with the rucksack back again!, after tynchie stryders stuff.
Man he still sounds exactly the same as he did at the peak of his career. Very unique style he has and it blows away so much trash on the radio these days. Great band and back up singers too!!
am i the only millennial here that actually knows who craig is? lol these "idk him" comments are bothering me big time! like dude, look him up. he's a legend!
Let them know!!! And when they do look him up, they will be in for a TREAT!!! With all the great music in his back catalogue not to mention all of his cool music videos. 7 days, Fill me in, Rendezvous, Walking Away, Rise and Fall ...etc. I could go on and on because he truly is one of the BEST! Unique and original.
I really like this response version. It is much better than just simply covering a song. I kinda hope they release a mash up of both the original and this version
Hello, very cool songs, I am waiting for more watching all the time as Mr. Craig David sings, and more and more such bits of greetings for this lady who sings in the background a beautiful voice :-).;-)
To all who says Craig changed the lyrics. He just Responded to Dua Lipa's Song. Its awkward to sing the Original Version. Hes Still a Guy. He has his Side. Good thing he admitted to this one that he make a mistake and saying sorry. Unlike some who change lyrics and defend the side.
His side is manipulative though. He says he's been trying to turn things around but there's no proof in the song. He just says he's sorry that he cheated, has been "letting her down" or "messing up", etc. and tries to minimize his betrayals which are all his actions. She really shouldn't give a fuck cos he ain't shit. If she wants to cut you off and see other people, that's her choice.
Unfortunately, alcoholics/binge drinkers RARELY change until you don't gaf. I know from experience. So now I go to school to counsel these sadly ill humans. Yes, illness. Alcohol causes a bunch of issues in all relationships...new rules covers that concept. She is singing the poison out. Good for her. ;)
I honestly think he did this because he might be inspired by Bastille because the band is known to change perspectives when covering songs. See the guys' cover of Miley Cyrus's We Can't Stop. (And Craig and the guys from Bastille have a song together and are mates)
Craig David has a real understanding of music and this is why he truly is an intelligent musician. I was hoping he made a comeback and I hope he continues to do well. He is an amazing live singer as well as recording artist. But credit should also go to those back-up singers, they sound great too.
Its very rare 2 listen 2 someone over the radio but 2 👂 them live n kill it. Iz something else cause 2 many individuals/ artist's use so much ablebs u hear that wit him no!!!!!!! Its pure!!!!!! Talent
Craig David topped charts in 2000s , the best times ever! He can sing anybody's song and always does it better! ❤
this takes me back to the early 2000s when response covers/songs were all the rage
Referee Quantity Craig David actually samples part of Fuck It I don't want you back in this cover! Great throwback!!
gyanna yumping i mean now we have diss tracks and youtuber drama...win-win situation 😒😒
T2 heartbroken reply springs to mind haha
CarkodMusic LOL, cover songs/bands existed way before youtube
Or when Craig David was still relevant and his music were poppin, before he disappeared. I hope he makes a comeback, I really enjoyed his music.
His backing vocal singers harmonies are amazing!
Incredible! He always surrounds himself with remarkable talent, or they flock to his talent. Whatever the case, we win!
She's also smoking hot 😉
Antony Lane thought there would be so many more comments saying that 😂👏🏽 unfortunately not but your certainly not wrong lol 🙌🏽
Trixie Beredo that
That's years of professionalism
I love that this is a response song because there's something so old school about it. I was going to say it reminded me of the Eamon Vs Frankee songs and then he went and mashed them into this response- amazing.
The lyrics please ? :(
VERSE
Hey baby, it’s crazy
Been thinking ‘bout you lately
wherever I go seems like I hear your song
I know I’ve been distant
been promoting my album, you know the business
now you hang up
whenever I call your phone
BRIDGE
(Then you cut me off)
say you don’t need my love
you’ve already cried enough
(You’ve been done)
you say you’re moving on
and this is goodbye
(Then you cut me off)
say you don’t need my love
you’ve already cried enough
please don’t give up
baby, I’ll tell you why
CHORUS
Girl I’m sorry I let you down
so stupid, damn I messed up
And I’ve been trying to turn it round
I guess you don’t give a
VERSE
I remember that weekend
you heard something ‘bout me creeping
yeah I admit
I had way too much alcohol
Them stories me cheating
all BS don’t believe them
this aint the way I want us to finish, no
BRIDGE [x1]
CHORUS [x1]
(BACKUP SINGER)
See you tryna' get to me
see you beggin' on your knees
So stop tryna' get to me
hey boy get up off your knees
(CRAIG DAVID)
And my friends keep telling me
forget what she says, It don’t mean sh** now
eff the presents, might as well throw them out
forget all those kisses, they didn't mean jack
they say let you go but I want you back
[x2]
CHORUS X3
Ok.... this is actually good. I love the fact that it’s a “response”.
I'm an old boomer and I have been listening to Craig for years... best voice ever
He never gets worse, never changes and in this case its only a good thing, he's the same Craig David from my teen years' music
If it ain't broke...
Craig David can put a spin on any song and make it his own! OMG he is incredibly
The backing singers are incredible!!! They really enhance the song; their vocals are flawless and blend perfectly.
youtube.com/@SheanWilliamsWorld?si=BUNXbdiy3dIWJMtL
He should DEFINITELY record it seriously this version is priceless
I didn't know I needed this until I listened to it
right
lélé lmao you went in haha I can’t!
So refreshing to see an artist/band smiling throughout singing the song, actually enjoying what he is doing. I watched him perform in Birmingham, absolutely incredible set and such a wonderful person.
How he switched into "Eamon's F**k it" in the Bridge was so smooth and amazing.
Craig David is still a legend
I love dua lipa, and I love the original song. But this is another level and I love it too! He sounds perfect 😍

This is incredible & he always put a twist on a cover! He has a terrific voice!
The smoothest voice ever, could listen to Craig all day ❤
This is fantastic, how an artist is able to put there own spin on a song and possibly make it better then the originals just pure talent. I’m so upset that I never really grew up listening to Craig but ever since his big comeback I think he is one of the best artists about and I can’t to see him live.
I love the way she covers the song switching sides. Very original move. It changes from what everyone does when they cover songs
Craig's voice is so damn smooth, that he can make anything sound better
jotarosa incorrect
Definitely not this..... lmao
RyanHarry not gonna lie I prefer this one and I’m a massive dua lipa fan
me too
ryanharry and xcx butthurt shitfaced, this is how u make music
The backing vocals are so perfect, at first i thought it was computerized
When the legend becomes millennial... The best r&b male singer, no one better that u....
DeLa’s witeout at least not like a nobody like u
icyliciousblue and the same thing can be said about you
DeLa’s witeout um nah he isn't. But you're a pos by the sounds of things. Same can't be said about me so fak off. :)
He's really good
Forgot to mention Anthony Hamilton & R.Kelly
Oh I love it.. plus it needs guts to give a response to the “IDGAF” .. bravo Craig!
Wat a cover..... he answers all dua lipas questions in her original song.... loveeeeeeee
What a clever cover
I love that he threw that throwback in there 😎😍
I love the way he faded out in the end.
this guy is a living legend !!
Is it just me or does the female backing singer have a 👌 voice!!! 😮
dean wilford who is she?
Incredible voice
Her instagram is lv1_laura_v_
Great legs is what she has.
yep I like her voice! :D so nice to the ear!
Laurenlovescraigdavid Laura Vasiliou
they all look really happy.
this needs an actual release like in the 2000's this slaps
This guy have a golden voice.. he made someone's covers better than original.
Born 1952 love Craig
Yooooo I did not expect this. It's straight fire!
Had to come back to hear this Craig David is so underrated
Craig David Legend
i love that all the musicians seem so be so happy
2:13 Just Wow!!!!
Waouh j'adore
2:13 The back singer kills it. Back singers are so underappreciated with Stars having all the glory :D
Craig is a chill monster ! His voice is so pure !
This is just brilliant! I forgot how long Craig David has been around until I heard his first hit on the radio yesterday.....from 1999!
Oh, and Laura sounds and looks good too :)
I love the fact that he's never change. This is a really great cover.
Craig is so underrated! The mans a legend and been banging out tunes for 20 odd years!!! And who is that backing singer 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
I’m so glad I found this again. Brought me some great childhood memories
You know Dua Lipa is already a legend when music icons from the previous generation are doing response versions to her songs 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 so cool
Actually he is replying to her song as they used to date, that's what dua lipa song is about.
He didn't reply because she is a legend
Dua lipa has like 3 good songs and Elton John and Da Baby can’t carry her for her whole career 👍
@@nossyke you’re right, everything CD does is well thought through and oh what a toxic bf he was then 😂 😂
I never heard of them until this legend done this which is better lol
his response is sooooo cute, wish every guy that made mistake apologizing like him! loveeeeee
One of the best live lounge covers I've heard
Nathanael Spencer then you clearly havent heard the harry styles live lounge cover of the chain
anna nopee yes I have, this is better in my opinion.
Craig david is the best live singer on earth bro
What a marvellous singer. You see how good he is live, because you can see how much he feels the music!
Good to see the drummer with the rucksack back again!, after tynchie stryders stuff.
since I knew him from '' seven days'' I never stop to listen his voice.. come back bro
Love how guitarist just enjoys having good time
This is so fucking amazing mahn🔥🔥❤🔥🎼
This mans a timeless talent!
craig, you made me realize that i'm old, LOL! been listening to your song since im in high school! dang!
Ratna Cempaka Yelestine when you first listening the song??
@@nawfaleffendi9132 2009 insomnia, down hahaha. Damn, i'm 24 now 😭😢
The best voice ever
I haven't seen him aging,my all time fave🙏
Man he still sounds exactly the same as he did at the peak of his career. Very unique style he has and it blows away so much trash on the radio these days. Great band and back up singers too!!
I like how he threw in a bit of Eamon--"F*ck it" had the ultimate response song drama back in the day haha.
His voice is still as smooth as ever... 😍
am i the only millennial here that actually knows who craig is? lol these "idk him" comments are bothering me big time! like dude, look him up. he's a legend!
Let them know!!! And when they do look him up, they will be in for a TREAT!!! With all the great music in his back catalogue not to mention all of his cool music videos. 7 days, Fill me in, Rendezvous, Walking Away, Rise and Fall ...etc. I could go on and on because he truly is one of the BEST! Unique and original.
I'm an iGen and I know him. :)
Don't love you no more is like a national anthem 🙄😂
#TheMaster
He's def not a legend in the US but he is a good singer from the early 90's.
Takes me back to 7 days always classy and smooth Craig David
This version tho 😍😍😍
I really like this response version. It is much better than just simply covering a song. I kinda hope they release a mash up of both the original and this version
Response cover wow. Loved it
This man is a legend every song he sings or covers is a tune
The Eamon part @2:35 was genius. Only the old skoolers would have recognised that ;)
Craig David - LEGEND!
I loved this response to dua lipa’s idgaf!! He killed it!
The best part? How happy they all look performing this song! I had no idea I wanted this in my life until just now. Kudos. So good.
When’s Craig getting his own live lounge show!! Smashes it every time 👊🏻
damn praise to those backing singers!
This guy won at life...smooth as silk n born to do it made him enough money to disappear forever n still turns up and does this...
And that is Craig David honey one of my favorite voices of all time
This is pure class! love it
This is why I love BBC Radio Covers. Clever one
I keep coming back because of the back-up vocals. 😍
Great to hear Craig David again. That voice!
Imagine this lyric combine with dualipa version. Please make a duet version (male and female)
Arguing in a form of a duet song. Great idea!
i could listen to this man sing anything he is amazing
Smashed it craig like you always do! I prefer this to the original💕 Laura and shaun are such great backing singers
THIS WAS SO MUCH BETTER THAN I EXPECTED.
Hello, very cool songs, I am waiting for more watching all the time as Mr. Craig David sings, and more and more such bits of greetings for this lady who sings in the background a beautiful voice :-).;-)
If you don't know ...then you don't know classic British r and b but he is the best . Still listening in 2023 started in 1998. 😮❤

what an intelligent reply!! =)
Shreyasi Upadhyay what a total rip off
Tornadolph Minecraft & CS:GO It’s a cover with a very clever twist, what’s your issue?
Jared Davies im talking about his comment bruv
Craig David has a real understanding of music and this is why he truly is an intelligent musician. I was hoping he made a comeback and I hope he continues to do well. He is an amazing live singer as well as recording artist. But credit should also go to those back-up singers, they sound great too.
Legend! Love this version!
Damn I love all his covers
My mans on the guitar stay hype! I love it! lol
I actually just stumbled upon this and had to go back and listen to Dua Lipas song... then back here ... super creative
Idk about u guys, but im so into this. Been here too often😍😍
I need to hear this song playing on the radio 😍😍😍
I love the throwback to Eamon!!! 😂🤘
I love this man
I never knew i needed it. Sounds better than original.
Its very rare 2 listen 2 someone over the radio but 2 👂 them live n kill it. Iz something else cause 2 many individuals/ artist's use so much ablebs u hear that wit him no!!!!!!! Its pure!!!!!! Talent
Как он чувствует музыку, это потрясающе !!!))
