Might be one of the best covers I've ever heard.
This song really feels like it's a real Gaslight Anthem song.
"it's the singer not the song" - mick jagger
Quite true here. So much emotion
been following Fallon since 08! it's great to see a musician make it. Back then it was sink or swim and nobody had heard of gaslight. Now he's killing it at festivals and fucking owning. Fallon is the man.
these guys are truly gifted. Take a mainstream pop song and turn it into a gut wrenching plea to your heart. just awesome. easily one of my favourite musicians.
His cover of Kelly Clarkson's "I Do Not Hook Up" is also pretty damn heart-wrenching.
This makes my heart warm. For real.
Well done, Daniel Hodd. This sounds amazing
Can't stop listening to this
When I hear THIS, I wanna make my "teenage dream" come true...
love the cover really heartfelt singing there
This shit is amazing.
This is incredible, Brian has such a driving voice it's beautiful.
How does this man have a terrible voice? Is it because he doesn't have your regular pop boy voice? He is a terrific lyricist. We need more singers like Brian Fallon in the music industry. He has pure talent.
8 years old but he's out of key almost all the song, very dissonant and odd fellow, but great work ethic
Every song Brian Fallon touches turns to gold.
totally awesome...............if only!!!!
Amazing.
I know! Especially for Teenage Dream - the lyrics have got that romantical defeatist Southern charm about it that is so authentically Fallon.
All thats need to happen now is that Brian and Bruce make an album. My life would be complete
they have played with him on two occasions I believe
I've seen them play together twice on the same day! Bruce with Gaslight and Brian with Bruce on the main stage. Glastonbury one year.... What a day!
I heard that Katy Perry made a cover of this song, it wasn't as nicely done though.
Cookie Cutter Pop + True Musicians = Magic
Epic Cover
Gorgeous
I actually really love this cover. It feels like Katy Perry's version is about being in love for the first time and feeling like it's all you'll ever need. But this one feels more Kiel it's about this broken guy and the person who put him back together. I know that sounds kind of stupid because some of the lyrics so do NOT fit what I just said, but whatever.
I think a lot of people might watch this and not really understanding what a special thing it is...to take a song and change the feeling so completely without changing any words is truly a special talent and not many people possess it. I would also recommend checking out his cover of kelly clarkson as well
Wow, this just turned into a good song.
Awesome , i want to hear fireworks next!!
Very interesting vocal qualities to the singers voice. Nice tight group.
great fucking voice
Очень и очень круто!!!
This is in the same league as Brian's cover of 'I do not hook up' by Kelly Clarkson. Changes a pop song, into something with abit of meaning, wonderful!
@vtgroup You just blew my mind.
So funny to hear Brian Fallon sing "you think I'm pretty without any make-up on" :)
@fightbrooklyn Exactly, he seems to give it more soul.
My girlfriend said the guitar was sexy. I had to correct her... the dude is sexy. She refused to apologize, but you know what she's like.
Good tune. Katy top man Brian real talent
@That1GuyBill Listening to his music has made me a better man
Everytime I see he's covered a pop song, I always wonder if it's one he wrote because I know he does songwriting for other people but I never have known for sure which songs he's worked on.
He mentioned ghostwriters on an interview pretty close to the time they did this, can’t find it though
anyone know of a link to download this and maybe his kelly clarkson cover as well? i'd love to have these to add to my collection of TGA / Horrible Crowes
ikr what is with the magic he adds to female pop songs? grr baffling but incredible
@vtgroup Brian Fallon, Brian Fallon and Brian Fallon. I like it
Yum.
@vtgroup Nooo, don't want to overwork the man! The wonderful, wonderful man that is Brian Fallon ;)
he did say though that he could tell i was prepared just flustered
so i guess thats good
i told him i was having a rough day and i was nervous
Doesn't seem to be on youtube. Where else can you hear it?
I love the Gaslight Anthem. I heard the Katy Perry song again recently and was like "Fuck, there's an actual song there, I wish someone cool would sing it." And then behold! I find this!
latenight-special: the boss ;)
Brian shows real emotion and isn't generic when he sings. Unlike what you'll find on the X-Factor where ever singer is generic and sound the same and singers go through based on their sob stories and image. For me, Fallon's song writing is why he's one of my favourite artists. This may come as a surprise to such a narrow minded person like yourself but I don't enjoy Taylor Swift's repetitive song writing where every song seems to be about her high school boyfriends.
Alex just chilling there on the keyboards ;)
*like.
@SloppyJoeUK If you don't already know Brian Fallon (singer) look up other Horrible Crowes stuff and Gaslight Anthem. You will be very pleasantly surprised.
I don't know who any of they are... you've sparked my curiosity. I'm going to check.
its crazy how brian can cover some pop stars song and make it his own and good
@fr1endofcharles what version is that?
@Marijn116 no doubt. Brian Fallon is one of the world's best singers/songwriters at the moment!
Chords! who has got em!
Haha. That is super classy! Long live The Gaslight Anthem!
The lyrics are so much more powerful with this music compared to the original! This blows Katy Perry's version out of the water.
racing heart.... check!
Haha I love that he covered such a ridiculous song its just so funny.
i know that should be true, and i should be creeped out, but i just get so lost in the cross between his sincerity and what Katy Perry meant, that i'm like "yeah, totally, brian fallon in skinny jeans, rock on"
Well I guess the story was one of Brian's friends really wanted to meet Katy and he went up and knocked on her trailer at a festival. Her guard said she wasn't feeling well although she was on stage 5 mins before, and just acted like an overall jerk. So Benny wore a Katy Perry shirt to there set and then they recorded this just as kind of a classy teasing gesture.
This song is the katy perry?
Lol yep, kind of cool because my 5 year old granddaughter and I sing I together (Not that you have to be 50 and a grandfather to be a crows fan- I started young!) Love this whole show
So they can put out an album full of Katy Perry songs and you wouldn't mind?
They've totally changed the harmony of the song. He can deviate all he wants from the vocal line?
Another Brian Fallon’s magic..
There was an interview in 2010 which Brian calls katy perry "not cool" 2011: covers her song. Good cover tho? Yeah I guess weird tho.
Yes, anyone who likes Brian Fallon likes Taylor Swift. Reasonable attack. You win the internet.
HAHA..people who like to criticize singers ALWAYS! act like they know what their talking about...its like reading a gossip Magazine all headlines with NO facts...it must get lonely at night for trolls.
Is there anything that Brian Fallon can't cover?
Just you.
I hated this song, then Brian Fallon covered it. Now I like it (only this version though)
katy perry wont have wrote this, its like sam endicott wrote half of shakiras album, yet the bravery are still a class indie rock band. it helps that brian and the boys are amazing and id never dis any song they did.
i love TGA and brian fallon like no other, but don't you think The Horrible Crowes is a terrible name for a band?
his voice would hurt so bad though. :/
I know what you mean, he does sound terrible; that's probably why he's released two albums, right? You're probably one of those people who think Tom Waits sounds bad because he's not synthesized or processed. You're so used to hearing digitally enhanced shite that you've actually forgotten what human voices sound like. They sound like this and it's better.
Brian's voice gives this bland pop song this life and (atleast the appearance of) real meaning
i have no idea how he made this work but there you go thats Brian for ya :)
he is effectively singing from a girls point of view (obviously) which is exactly what he did in Here Comes My Man :)
Katy Perry couldnt say anything after watch this cover
Brian makes me want to be a better man
Did anybody else notice that Glee sort of stole this or what?
Um, Southern charm is great...if you're from the South which Fallon is not. ??
hahahahahahahahaha
But when has Glee ever done anything original?
Well I guess it's fortunate I'm not begging for your approval, isn't it? Thanks though. I think.
hes the best.. But everyone can´t like everything.
southern charm? new jersey isn't very southern
like this version, way better than Katy Perry
Still great new album great too don't listen to the muppets
The lyrics suddenly make absolutely no sense.. either that or they have become extremely creepy.
Sounds like Springsteen
Did this band get their name from the drummer's nose???
that 65 year old drummer has teenage dreams every night
Барабанщик играет классно, но к этой группе совсем не подходит;))
Why would they do this? Is it just me or does this just not work for them?
LMAO at the guy who changed his speakers to get the same OPINION..hahaha FAIL
dont think katy perry write this song, tbf.
way to do a cover that makes the original pale in comparison, katy perry has nothing on brian!
Ha, I love Tom Waits. Try again. I'm just telling you what I hear. Not my fault this dude can't sing. A lot of bad singers release more albums than these guys. Just for the record, I've listened to this like 4 times now to make sure I'm not just hearing things. He's not good. Not terrible but not good. Haven't heard any of his other stuff, maybe he's better in other songs...
hate katy perry, love this song
