#EdSheeran #BadHabits #BringMeTheHorizon - Hudba
Ed Sheeran has actually gone on record saying he was a fan of Cradle of Filth and Slipknot when he was growing up. I can totally see Sheeran being the one to push for this collab to happen at all.
Actuqlly I remember seeing that, I don't think I haven't heard a single song of Ed Sheeran's that doesn't make me want to destory whatever device is prodycing it nd sacrifice it to Satan, but he does seem like he's a pretty decent dude.
@@MetalMan1245 you can at least admit the dude can sing
God damn Cradle of Filth?
Apparently Ed stated he wants to make a metal album. I always figured he was a fan of metal.
Wut?!?! This is shocking to me. That dude likes Cradle of Filth and Slipknot? Wut?!?! Like yo, I love Slipknot and wtf Cradle of Filth is honestly too heavy for me personally. I can't really enjoy it. But fucking Ed Sheeran... man, I'm shocked. Decent dude tho
This collab fills me with so much seratonin. "Rock is dead" my ass.
True, Rock was never dead, and this is one of the longest proofs
What is wrong with people, this isn't rock... 🤦♂️
This is not Rock tho.
Well tbh Rock is.
But Metal is born from it. That wasn't Rock I heard there
Rock was dead at least until 2 years ago when it has been seeing a revival
this legit is so amazing for so many reasons, not only for bmth, but just for the whole scene. i love seeing rock and metal becoming more and more accepted
I'm glad you're happy but Ed Sheeran isn't rock. What is this world coming to, next up TBDM and Taylor Swift! 😒🤦♂️
I agree 100%
Fam BMTH hasn’t been making metal for more than a decade now, at this point their pop.
@@ThisIsGers dear dairy??
@@ThisIsGers there were some heavy songs on the last album, are they straight metal? No, but they ain’t pop
Dani Filth did say that if Ed Sheeran proved if he was metal enough he'd record a death metal song with him
I want that made for science.
Well this has proven some metal sensibility.
That would be amazing to see in any form, just for curiosity sake
@@sr71sr71 Right? That shit go nuts
Filth does not even make death metal 😂
This is probably the biggest thing to happen to the rock/metal scene in a minute. In accounts to bringing it back to the mainstream. Really hope this continues with other bands & big artists.
Absolutely agree - there’s been way too much hate over this performance, if it opens up people’s curiosity into the heavy rock/metal genre I’m all for it
@@198clm hate? Man people are stupid why would you hate this
Also Maneskin winning Eurovision last year
@@ignacydrozdowicz8107 Don't forget that one song in Stranger Things (and not Kate Bush ofc)
They introduced so many people to this genre,
I hope this is the start of the revival of rock and metal!
It was never dead anyway so ye
Metal was never dead, Rock lost its way in pop radio for a few years but it's coming back
@@ejnova7215 it was never dead, but was never in the mainstream like the 80s
That wasn’t even a rock or metal song so it’s not gonna revive anything. That was just slightly heavy pop
@@txhellrazor4765 slightly heavy pop.....eyeroll
Classic gatekeeper
BMTH did not just go the 'Amo' route with this collaboration, which would be the easiest thing to do. No they dropped a 'breakdown' at the end of a live performance with Ed Sheeran. Mad respect for the lads! Hope this triggered some young kids to dive into BMTH as a gateway.
That is literally me. Never listened to metal or the non mainstream rock. Loved this collab, found other Bring Me’s songs, other similar artists etc. Now I’m a fan of both
@@t3rry260 m8 you're a perfect example of why so many people love what bring me are doing atm, if even 1% of the people who heard this song and dove deeper into bring me and metal as a whole, then awesome, glad to have y'all onboard and glad you found some cool new bands to listen to
Loved it!
You’re spot on Nik, generally at the BRIT Awards it’s mainly pop or hip-hop and the occasional light rock music, it’s the first time a metal band has ever been there and to open the show is crazy.
Over here it’s quite a big show, it’s at the O2 arena which is basically the stage every UK artist aspires to play at, and it was broadcast live on BBC1 (which in the channel directory is literally channel 1) at 8pm, so this is absolutely huge! And to be playing with Ed Sheeran who is arguably the biggest artist in the world (definitely in the UK) is crazy, he was spotted wearing a Drop Dead t shirt (Oli’s clothing line) and is a bit of secret metalhead at heart
Small correction it was on ITV1 which next to the BBC channels is like the other main TV station in the UK absolutely loved this i’m still reeling from it 🔥
Bring me HS been on other shows in the UK, and I wouldn’t call them metal
@@MrDjentlegiant Metalcore is metal regardless if you want to like it or not.
@@ryanshinermusic isn't metalcore technically hardcore?
@@MrDjentlegiant here comes the gatekeeper lmfao
Funny thing is that Ed has shown a little bit of interest in creating heavy music as he grew up on this shit.
I mean you can definitely tell from the distortion he uses when he sings. It's not a full on scream but it comes from the same place
Because many of his (love) songs are inspired by his wife, and because his label surely didn't allow him to
@@goldflo91 Yeah, because the label understands that they won't make any money off of MeSheeran
@@Pepper_Jvck Because the label thought metal wouldn't sell enough, compared to (T)rap and especially pop
And they thought Ed Sheeran making metal wouldn't fit nor sell
They definitely have to release this collab as a single. This was impressive and super catchy!!
it needs to happen
They are actually making a song together but yeah, no news regarding a studio version of this collab
BMTH announced that they're releasing the studio version of this song on the 18th
@@ludens1472 FRIDAY for the studio version
They just did. Look it up on Spotify.
I love the way he thumbed his nose at the crowd at the end of the song (they just slayed with Ed Sheeran!?!), like he knew it was an amazing performance. Not truly heavy, but it was Ed Sheeran(!?!). This slapped! So awesome 🤩
Oli has been killing it live lately lmao remember in like 2017 2018 everyone was calling him washed up and shit
You do realize that wasn't live, right? This isn't a hate comment, it just is how it is. They don't play live for shit anymore. It is a performance. I work in the space and I am fine with that.
People calling him washed up? They should have seen him when BMTH were still on the local village hall scene. He was constantly mashed. 😂
@@musicdude1540 I don't know what you're talking about, BMTH is still playing live.
@@musicdude1540 sureeee, im going to believe a random in the internet called "music dude". Keep the good work buddy
@@leviackerman_x You're saying that because you want them to do that. They don't and have not for a long time. They're doing a show. Lee has a kemper switching patches under the track but all you hear is track.
What he says is actually very true. For lots of us, Bring Me was the entrance door to the metal scene - i got into them with Mantra and then discovered their discography step by step, at first i hated scream and now i love is so much, at first i coudn't here one song on There is a Hell and now Im screaming Alligator Blood or Chelsea Smile lungs out... so yeah, they aren't the heaviest band ever but their creativity, their will to smash music boundaries (this collab is the perfect exemple) will always make them special for the metal scene, and their songs are very often fun and packed with energy. So yeah, this is huge, but i wasn't expecting less from this incredible band.
My intro to them was pray for plagues when I was in middle school lol
That's literally me lol
you know me so well....
Same haha
Ed can sing in Yourba, Spanish, Italian, afrobeat,rap, perform with a loop pedal with no band, write for himself and other top artists, perform, and is incredibly humble and down to earth while having the top streamed song of all time and the highest grossing tour of all time. Ed is the best at it ALL.
Yes. He is the only one.
Ed Sheeran has very good taste in choosing his feats. He perfectly knows what is the best choice to make the public scream of joy.
My thoughts watching this were basically “I wonder what Adele was thinking during this performance”
I'm not the biggest fan of Ed Sheeran, but this is pretty sick!!!
Bring me are the most 'mainstream' metal band since LP, prehaps even more so. WHICH IS SO GOD DAMN GOOD. We need this shit
i wouldnt say more so but i agree
When it sounds good, it sounds good and it takes a while for the public to realize it. Then we get Minutes to Midnight and I pretend its a different band
Yeah you right. The Brit awards are definitely more pop centric, and geared towards the mainstream. This is absolutely huge. Respect to Ed Sheehan collaborating with BMTH. And yeah, by bringing metal more into more popular platforms, I hope that it can open some minds. And produce a wider appreciation for the genre, that has historically been looked down on in more mainstream circles.
This fucking slapped. 10/10 for metal in the mainstream LETS GOOOOO
Video was blocked for the last 24 hours but thankfully we managed to get in contact with them to unblock it so you guys could enjoy the reaction & discussion 🙏
Original Comment:
THIS IS EPIC!!!!
they aren’t wrong. would agree what u said nic “this is huge”
Btw Cradle of Filth has now reached out to Ed Sheeran in hopes to collab now
That was HUGE and mooooore HUGE!! 🤘🏻
This was unexpected
Revolver basically said the same thing about how wild it is for them to be teaming up. Said they recorded it a week ago, practiced 3 days prior and then did it live. Also sounds like they are going to work on writing a track together, assume for the new BMTH album
It makes me so happy seeing a rock band get recognized on international television and even did a breakdown
The drummer doesn’t get enough credit. He’s carrying the whole thing.
BMTH have been breaking into the UK pop side for quite a while now. That being said Architects also get played quite a bit on the main BBC Radio channel.
Let’s just acknowledge the growth in Oli and BMTH from their first album until now. One of the biggest bands doing whatever style they want when they want
Bro tf 🤣 it would of blown my mind if Ed Sherran fucken did raws😂😂
Olly crouching before the "breakdown" still gives me chills.
Spot on Nik. Elitism in music means the death of the genre. Getting exposure like this might motivate those kids jamming in their garage to take it to the next level.
I honestly have so much respect for Ed Sheeran as a songwriter and performer. He is seriously a phenomenal talent.
He is one of those popstars that are actually very good musicians. Some popstars nowadays rely on autotune and outside help in the writing process (emphasis on some), but Ed Sheeran is definitely not one of them plus he said that he likes Death Metal. Maybe one day we will get a heavy album from him
Yeah, I agree this is pretty big for the scene! Also to be noted is this is the opening of the awards show, the first performance viewers saw. It shows that heavy music is getting more recognition as being in the cutting edge maybe it's also a bit of a curiosity. They also had Poppy perform at the Grammys, it wasn't a televised part of the show but still very interesting developments.
That was very cool!! Ed is an amazing pop artist and really seems to vibe with some metal as well haha
Ed Sheeran coming to the metalcore genre in 2023 confirmed.
This is huge! More rock and metal artists need to do collabs with artists outside of the scene. BMTH has done so much for heavy music they really deserve respect, and I say this as a former hater who wrote them off as trendy scene Br00tal kids when I was in high school.
"br00tal kid" now that is a term i have not read in years.
At the end of the day, the likes of BMTH, Architects, Don Broco, Royal Blood, Biffy Clyro all got to #1 in the Official Charts, with Bury Tomorrow, WSS, Enter Shikari and more all crack top 10. The industry might be pop and rap dominated like just about everywhere but there is a huge chunk of people going all out for this. Huge production, loved to see this as an opening.
Also, go check Ollie wrecking Coldplay's table on the NME awards (another Briiiish things, we love a good ceremony there) few years back 😁
I love BMTH so much man, literally Ed Sheeran and they turned him metal lmao
Totally agreed with Nik. This was mental. I love when talented artists from different genres combine their music. I don't understand why "trve" metalheads want to listen to the same old shit all the time, and don't appreciate the effort and the beauty in all type of music.
Lately I hear BMTH on the radio at the grocery store in the past several months. Very proud of them. In my mind, BMTH picked up the mantle from Linkin Park after we lost Chester. Not saying better or equal, but that he picked up the baton to keep running the race when honestly most of us were too worn down from losing someone like Chester. Oli and BMTH have kept that fire alive. For me at least. They are that band now. The gateway band into metal and the scene. Good guys too. Chester would be proud of them. Again, I'm not saying they are equal to, better than, or even replacing Linkin Park, even for me, but that they are the band that kind of links music together for us all and acts as a voice for the scene. This was a huge deal. And I for one am very proud of BMTH.
Respect to Ed … 🔥🔥🔥
i dont think nik realizes how mainstream and how much of an icon BMTH is in britain. They are THE biggest band currently from there
Metal will eventually become mainstream again just like back then with The Black Album.
They really aren't mainstream.
I've barely heard of them over here and I like rock
Oly is literally becoming the Asian bad boy steriotype in every anime and show made
This is actually the first time any screaming has been done on the brit awards. It was dope af to see
"The Brits" is the annual British music awards and is broadcast live on one of our main, mainstream broadcast stations. This is huge and you were right, it's probably the heaviest music a lot of the people watching at home have ever listened to. Bringing metal to the masses, gotta love 'em.
I mean Ed hanged out and gets a selfie with head, went to a manson gig, and covers limp bizkit. I think he like the heavy once in a while.
I'm from the UK, and yes The Brit Awards that started in 1977, and became an annual event from 1982 onwards, doesn't normally have metal acts on it. That version of Bad Habits featuring Bring me the Horizon, was f!@#$ing incredible. It brought a whole new level to the Brits, not seen before.
My best Brit awards was 1992 ( I was 22) and nearly fell of my settee when I see KLS and ….Extreme Noise Terror . Mind blowing for a ENT fan to see them on mainstream Uk tv
This was such a brilliant idea from whoever came up with it.
There’s been LOADS
@@198clm Loads of?
Ed said it was his idea. They wanted him to open for the awards and he said he pretty much only plays acoustic so he called some friends.
Im from the UK. The Brit Awards traditionally are some of the poppiest, most corporate celeb event we have here. Its the Uk version of The Grammies with a bit of The Oscars rolled in. This... This is a dramatic departure from the norm. Its usually just pop stars fingering eachother. This is something completely new, and it is amazing. Metal has never really been close to popular in the UK, it is something that is seen as something fringe in most places, its only recently it has started to creep into the mainstream. This performance is going to open a lot of eyes. Its amazing.
Ed lucky to collab with such legends
So happy they made a studio version. Jesus fkn christ this opened up so much for bmth. Ed sheeran is a living legend
I’m convinced that Ed and BMTH need to drop an album and I would listen to it nonstop!!!
Ed Sheeran has never shied away from crossing over with different genres. It's one of the things i like about him despite not being a fan of his regular music.
Oli’s cleans are so fucking beautiful! Fuck man!! Never thought this amazing sound would be coming from these guys listening to ‘This Is What The Edge Of Your Seat Was Made For,’ and ‘Count Your Blesings’ when I was in High School. Simply jaw dropping and inspirational.
I just shed some tears watching this. Two of the singers i love the most in this world together, oh my god. Epic
I think everyone is a core kid at heart, just gotta dig deep enough 😂
oli’s little gerard way cosplay🥺
I'm actually super proud of this! This sounded really damn good and I bet there are gonna be some kids out there who have never heard of metal etc, or even those who may have thought metal was garbage, and will now actually check out bmth. THis was hopefully be an awesome gateway for a lot of people and bring people to the best side of music, METAL!!
Sheeran is fucking insane live. Raps and rocks out. One of the best shows ive seen live. And almost every song is looped and he does the looping live
This is actually amazing! We need more metal/pop mashups
Ed loves his rock music this is well known so I'm not surprised
Can confirm not much metal but the odd rock seeps in there every now and again (Royal Blood a few years back) but yeah, this was a first and hopefully it opens the gates for more mainstream metal.
Totally agree with what you say about bring me, some tracks aren’t the best but what they’ve done for the metal scene overall is huge. I know so many people who wouldn’t have touched anything metal a few years ago but they got into BMTH and now they listen to everything from old TDWP to the brand new shit like STP and Brand of Sacrifice.
But yeah, whatever you say about bring me, this is fucking huge.
that was pretty huge , i mean Ed and BMTH mainstrean live awards show...i mean good for them , and from an entertainment standpoint it was a full win on both sides, and a crazy good performance. good stuff
The fact that my guy Oli straight up screaming on live tv makes me so happy
Sick af. I'm not much of a pop guy, but Ed Sheeran's vocals are clean af. The collab was dope. Also, Oli's fries in the end were SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO clean
I like some songs of Ed Sheeran.. but I don't know why i never think about this collab, it fits amazing!! and ed sheeran have not problem to do some breakdowns
when i tell you i was smiling from ear to ear this does so much for the metal scene
Love your opinion at the end, so on point. Great reaction overall. And holy shit, Ollis vocals improved so much, he was never able to sing like that live. So awesome!
This is literal gold ❤️✨
It’s so good to hear somebody recognize the triumph for the metal scene that this collaboration is and what it means for the genre. Thank you for being real and having the broader picture in mind!
Holy shit. More of that please.
Ed is one of the biggest pop stars in the world. This is mental.
Ed did say he was living his teenage dream doing this.
I'm all for an Ed Sheeran Popcorn album of doing covers of his songs with metal bands.
So glad you took the stance you did on this. This was both great and freaking HUGEEEEE!! I don't think people understand how amazing and what a leap this was.
I absolutely love both Ed and Bring me the horizon when i read that they’ll collab I was like ‘how should this work??’ And I had to pick my jaw up from the floor when the chorus dropped like it fits so perfectly well. Salut to both of them for this amazing crossover
As a metal fan respectfully can we get a studio collab for like Spotify
Rock is such an underrated genre, it literally goes well with so many different genres
I love how oli just sits. That man knows how to make an entrance. I still view his entrance in While she sleeps - Silence speaks as one of the coolest walk ins ever.
Ed is trolling everybody by putting an album out that sells, then quietly doing collabs with people he really admires and wants to. Eds lyrics and rap on his song with Eminem and 50cent was to me more impressive than his collaborators. I'm just looking at him thinking good for you dude, really. You busked in london for years with strangers walking past just trying to make a living. Now you've made money to do something you really wanted to. I think we all strive for that. Perpetuate the common so we can afford the grandiose.
To nik's point on BMTH, thank you for actually saying that. For using those words, for not being ambiguous and sit on the fence. I think the further along in your own professional career as a musician, you can understand AND appreciate the choices they made. I'll say this about artists like them; Jimi Hendrix, Linkin Park, Tech N9ne, Sting, Bee Gees, Fleetwood Mac, Skrillex and even John Mayer. Besides traversing "genres" and for some settling into one and dominating it, a typically overlooked disposition in the industry, they don't chase charts. You see some of the promos these people do and you just feel they had to cause its in the contract. They love music, and are pretty damn good at it. So they made it a career. The irony of the situation being, targeted or for some ignored because of their PERSONAL choice to develop an idea. I thank god they have scraped their knees enough crawling up to their lofts that they can now smile and politely decline ignorant pressure.
Music is a necessity for our well-being. I remember getting physically excited listening to new bands on napster and praying you find more. I feel pride when a band I listened to before evolves. It shows me they are still creating, that they are human. It shines a brighter light at ALL their works. It give evidence that our society as a whole is progressing.
When someone asks me an opinion on a band like Linkin Park, I'd say I have none. I love some songs. The songs are timeless, people evolve. It's a malicious and ignorant question to ask someone. It's imperative that artists don't conform. They are an important measure in the progression of society. I am smiling at what Ed did with BMTH, just thinking of the music industry and how they must be now assessing the approval ratings and scanning social media accounts thinking if they need to alter their current choices to elevate certain artists. So many Metal songs are positive it's kinda amusing. The topics broached and emotions shown have such character we should push for inclusiveness. Bands like BMTH bridge the gaps so others can take less obtrusive steps to finding something they may enjoy, which in turn supports the artists.
I know this is a much longer post than usually found here, I just got emboldened by nik's passion. I'd like to leave with 1 example. Although not popular here(i'm guessing), but when I see eminem being oppressed by certain musicians it just saddens me, That they have no idea how he in a lot of ways put money in THEIR pockets. I live in Singapore. Eminem was the FIRST mainstream rapper to be played extensively on air. Its a very similar story for my neighbouring countries. He literally, and to me, single-handedly created an interest in rap and Hip-Hop. Which then increased interest in the apparel and etc. Most people found out about Dre and N.W.A. and so many others after him. Plus how many artist can say they get physically better with age. I can only think of Miss Celine Dion.
The first time I've heard this song was (of course) a cover by a band called Conquer Divide (never heard 'em before). I thought -- well, what a fun pop-y light-ish metal-ish catchy song! And then came the breakdown. This immediately settled in my everyday playlist! And then I learned it's a cover 😅
Omg yes, mas respect for those ladies. One of the few female centric bands I can stand behind 100%
Thank you - you hit the nail on the head. This is so important.
If any bands gonna bring metal into a better light, it's definitely Bring Me.
That´s some nice shit!! You should check out the NME awards 2016 BMTH performs Happy song and fucks up Cold play´s table...Heavy af...even though there was some sound issues and Olli was drunk as hell..
We've watched that on stream, iirc one of the band members also trashed his guitar 🤣
- Caleb
I need an offical version of this on spotify!!!!!!! very surprising!
this is the best stuff ive heard in a LONNNNGGG AS TIME! i love talents like these :') im go glad i discovered BMTH during my emo days in school
Couldn't agree more. I had friends who wouldn't ever be caught listening to metal messaging me the link to this saying how awesome it is.. Its opening up mainstream music fans to heavy music and it's nothing but a good thing.
Honestly loved this. It was pretty cool!
This has such a nostalgic sound to me. I used to listen to punk goes pop on loop for over a couple of years xD thats how i started my obsession with the heavier style compared to hair metal(vocal-wise). I grew up on 70s and 80 rock and metal bc both my parents only listened to that. This just brought me back, and makes feel old xD
we need adele and architects!!! 😳😂
I was expecting this to just be a fan grab having Oli just sing with Ed Sheeran to get some Bring Me fans be like " oh Ed Sheeran did this we should listen to him" I was expecting an actual full on updated and actually pretty sick composition! Damn another reason for me to love British pop culture over the US 😆
I have seen both in concert. Best duet we didn't know we needed.
Need this song on my playlist ASAP
One of the first metal bands I chose to listen to (instead of my sister just playing it) was BMTH with Suicide Season, that really set the trajectory for my musical tastes today. I love to see them so successful, claps for metal
You can say whatever you want about BMTH. Wetter you like the old stuff, the New stuff, both, or none of them. But they did it! They can do whatever they want and have a Ton of money.
I want this song on spotify ! This Feature is so dope ! I like this a lot !
This is a huge boost for rock and metal man. I bet a bunch of people will get into to genre becaus of this.
Love Bring Me for stuff like this. They are doing great things for themselves and the community if you ask me. Blessss them.
They're literally Counting their blessings
A truly epic performance with a perfect mash-up of great artists. I did not like this song previously but this definitive version made me change my mind
Metal might get alot more mainstream again which is huge and great. Also might see more pop artists do like metal collabs or maybe even get more pop core now.
Was waiting for this react video as soon as it happened ❤️🔥
In standard Brit fashion, I was sat in a Weatherspoons when I saw this happened. I was sat with my uni’s metal society, we all gathered around pints in hand. Losing our shit to how this is reality. All with massive smiles on our faces
When I saw this posted on CZcams I wasn't sure about it, but man.... THIS SLAPS!
Why wouldn't the UK have an awards show? We literally are the most influential country when it comes to globally renown artists. The amount of times people find out that world famous artists are from the UK and are shocked.
This has the potential to be the beginning of something AMAZING!!! Wicked!
