Hans Zimmer could honestly put a microphone in a taco bell bathroom and make a masterpiece out of it

[@fredriksvensson1181]

too real

[@briannugent5399]

😂

[@ewan_stormer6668]

@@gosias751you realise this was only released in 2013? Not at all millennial…

[@jessicaribeiro4694]

We need more of Freya Ridings and Bastille together

[@johannaahlstrom910]

The orchestra, the choir, the singers. This reminds me how beautiful life can be. And what beautiful things we can create together.

[@tylersilver1492]

What a beautiful comment, Johanna. I agree.

[@Atif_Ph.D._Kate_Bush_Fan_Club]

Wow 😮.
You know you’ve hit peak success not when you’ve sold more albums than any other artist but when Hans Zimmer provides the music to your song!

[@rudsondeygner5721]

Man, these two prove the world what singing really means. It's unbelievable how their voices match so perfectly. ❤

[@tk123420020]

he almost cannot stand still while singing because of how much he puts into it. And Freya is just out of this world. Such a masterpiece.

[@Shiturin]

I need this on Spotify ASAP

[@geraldfoster428]

I was so happy when I heard Freya on the alto line (for the most parts) instead of the soprano which she generally sings. If you know Freya's voice, you know she's a beautiful and distinct but overtaking soprano. However, she appropriated her voice magnificently here and complimented Bastille's very well. That's talent right there. Loved it.

[@AlleliHull]

Serving the song :) Freya Ridings' voice is so full in her lower register!

[@12345Yeah]

Cringe lord

[@elfmatw]

@@12345Yeah No need to introduce yourself.

[@davidalbro2009]

Freya Ridings isn't a soprano. Even the high note here is well within contralto range.

[@ShyFly1000]

I love him! Seen him live multiple times and his voice gives me chills! Freya actually adds to his voice which is so impressive. They sound amazing together. Beautiful

[@gosias751]

Milenial song im polish and i feel that too

[@vishva_de_zoysa]

This is better than the studio version, who agrees?

[@javindo]

They both have such amazing voices this is such a beautiful collab

[@FIshfood500]

No it isn’t. It’s fake AF

[@user-ef5mn1ui4j]

I got the chills. What a stunning, breathtaking performance. Such powerful voices! And the stage design and lights.... just WOW

[@Follager69]

Same here! Majestic singing from these two. Fwiw I just researched the phenomenon and it's called musical frisson and apparently not everyone gets chills or goosebumps listening to music. Glad to be one of the ones that do as it's such a good feeling!

[@benread7792]

I so wish there were a production version on Spotify with Freya as well.. this is just the most wonderful collab.

[@Jaa_morant]

Bastille always kills it in awards show performances!

[@saraharquelau3577]

It gave me goosebumps from beginning to end

[@TheLuckalee33]

This was beautiful! I would love to hear a version with just Freya also! Her voice…beautiful!

[@jncg2311]

Good grief. The range, power and control that Freya often exhibits has so much meaning in this duet. Dan, of course was superb too. Just off the back of the acoustic Live in Paris performance by Bastille this was a really wonderful thing to stumble upon.

[@bigsky7617]

I'm literally just tonight realizing how talented Bastille is (Killing Me Softly, holy shit). And then I come across THIS?! Incredible and beautiful!!

[@andrewbrandenburg3842]

I was so happy they came out with this version and have been listening to it on Spotify nonstop. It shows the power that music can have on a song. I love it!

[@ubongabasi9110]

Link please?
Can't find any on Spotify with freya

[@adaezeobilom]

​@ubongabasi9110 Me too

[@attackfox]

Still can’t get over this Hans Zimmer version.

[@CyberixBlade]

This has gotta get to No.1 in the charts!

[@BoardyRocks]

Ok, so I have listened to this song probably more times than is normal. When Freya joined in it gave me chills.

[@rejaakkk3831]

this performance itself feels like a movie

[@kristy-maxineakiro4938]

Hans Zimmer is and always will be a musical genius.!

[@gabifgt]

i haven't been this stunned in a long time. i literally have chills all over my body. it's like i transcended.

[@pedrosousa8512]

I have to say this, but this singers with hans zimmer´s, what a masterpiece!!!!

[@alex_marten]

Love Freya Ridings. Amazing performance.
