#LikeAVersion - Hudba
Still the best like a version of all time.
It's definitely in my top three. Is it the best? I'd put Hermitude's "Heart-shaped Box", and Aurora's "Teardrop" into the mix and, honestly Illy might still come out on top, but I'm torn. (Edit: Yungblud also did a great job covering Death Cab For Cutie, and Alex Lahey's version of "Welcome to the Black Parade" was sick!).
ABSO FREAKING LUTELY!
Anne Marie's cover of "Listen to Soul, Listen to Blues" and Paul Dempsey's cover of "Edge of Town" are also up there. But this one is the best.
100%. This, Thundamentals ‘brother’ and childish gambino’s ‘so into you’ are my top 3
Chvrches do I wanna know too
Literally no one put this much effort into any of the others
This is the best one hands down!
There IS something in the water!
I am proud to be an Australian when i hear this. Illy you owe that violinist a drink...
I'm a Kiwi, Aussie's are doing something nice haha
still the best like a version ever. period. full stop.
Havnt listened to DMAs believe yet then
@@theatrain5388 True that. The DMA Believe is great. That fucking voice. I go back to that often. As I do this one
And I will also put in a bid for AB Original and Paul Kelly's Dumb Things.
3 yrs later still the best like a virgin ever
Something for kate sweet nothing
Chet faker lover lover
Matt Corby brother.
Rap is cute tho.
100%
7 years, crazy how time flies by.. still fucken awesome ✌✌✌
Checking in from USA.
Too true knackers. Haven't listened to this for a couple of years and still the best hands down. The way he put the tribute into the greatest story teller next to Slim is awesome.
Thus tune will last through the ages.
Honestly, this is sooo talented. Even 8 years this still gives me goosebumps at how incredible this is. Proud of our Australian music history!
been checking this out for the whole 8 years, a masterpiece
don’t know the band or the cover songs but this comes together great
@@sarahdoyle1073 are you ok?
every time i listen to this i end up with a lump of pride stuck in my throat when they switch to Paul Kelly. This is an awesome mix.
Same. I get the chills, then goosebumps, then the lump in the throat. Every time.
I keep jumping between this and A.B. Original's "Dumb Things" LAV. ;)
tanya mcpherson XxX
Same but I get it when Tomorrow hits
That piano riff huh?
A decade later, still can't stop watching this masterpiece.
Music/tallent like this will be played for many decades I hope. If you have taste this will never die
DID we not appreciate the massive effort by old mate on the paddle pop sticks!!?? Absolutely killing like a 100 different beats in that thing flawlessly!!??
Still haven't heard a better like a version 6 years later
Facts. And I’ve heard them all.
Tuka....big jet plane...it's pretty good. Love both of these so much
Thundamentals cover of brother 🤙🏽🤙🏽
Noel homeless i go back to it
Chvrches cover of Kendrick Lamar “love”
This is awesome. Im a kiwi music lover and this song epitomises everything that is awesome about Ozzie music... Love it
Seriously that was fuckin dope. Excuse my Americanisms. I loved the tributes to the Australian revered bands, singers and songwriters and how you melded your rhymes. First class guys
hilltop hoods, you will like
David Walsh Was riding through the backroads of Dwellingup recently, man, this song blended so well with the atmosphere
swear jar mate
fuck the swear jar ! that Was
so fckn good
Don't sweat it I love your Americanisms
A true celebration of Australian music, big respect!
The Hilltop bit is freakin awesome.
YourPalHDee Adelaide baby
The moment the violin starts at 1:20
Goosebumps even today
Hilltop Hoods is one of the only Hip-Hop (kind of) artists I actually like
@@QKvox you'd like. the herd. Another Aussie hip hop chilled like hilltops listen to the album *future shade*
But illys cinematic album is a classic also
I get so hyped when the Nosebleed Section strings come in
This is the best ever like a version full stop
still the best like a version hands down, 7 years later, NOTHING CAN TOP THIS
I listen to it all the time I love it
you best believe I saw Illy perform this at Spilt Milk
@@maxl178 JEALOUS
@@chrisgiblett1364 SAME
DMAS - Believe says hi.
2019, and still one of the best like a versions on record!
It goes round full circle, yeah, there’s diamonds in the rough
We got a motherfucking earthful
Patience is a virtue, but time's of the essence
As attention spans get shorter
It's hard to drink, must be something in that water
A nationwide celebration of creative sides
So, ain't no surprise if you make the time
Man, it's amazing what you may just find
Whatever flavour you like
Take your pick, bars, guitars, serato from far and wide
The artists from our own backyard here to Carry on tradition
Looking up at the stars, saying
"One day we’re gonna be where they are," and
You wait till tomorrow
You wait till tomorrow
That well-worn routine shows that you reap what you sow
So those seeds gonna grow
Get dope, get unearthed and leave home for the road
And as what the seasons change, ebb and flow
New crops fall in love with the people in the front row
Right? Now I know something 'bout that
I was a fresh faced seventeen, snuck in the back
I couldn’t buy you a round, but I could jump with the pack
What a great night, thank Pressure and Suffa for that
Under the surface, a scene bubbled and hissed
Too many kings to name, countless others to list
And like that, doors broke and the flood commenced
And now our hip hop's all up in this bitch
Watched a fresh style be bedded in the psyche
Of the general mass by gentlemen just like me
Every unlikely leader, was getting live (if it's your flavour)
If it's your flavour, celebrate it beside me because
My happiness is slowly creeping back
(Why's that?) Just gotta listen to the song, bro
I found it off my head with my friends in the front row
And I looked around, the faces I’d know
I fell in love with the people in the front row
And I looked around, the faces I’d know
I fell in love with the people in the front row
Now don’t get it twisted, the gigs didn’t teeth it
It's been here for years, shhh, that’s our little secret
Now, it might not have gave birth to a genre
But it found its feet in between rehearsals and encores
Soon enough, tours done for
And then it's back to the lab again, the pen and pad again
For soul and glory, word to Paul
We love those great tellers of Australian stories, right
And he said since I left you
I know, not somebody that I used to
Leave lonely, she said better be home soon
Or something’s gotta give
Man, it's the tale of the travelling musician
She knew, but still struggled with the distance
And he wished a big jet plane could take her with him
'Cause it's always better when she's near
He was shaking in his seat, riding through the street
From a Virgin flight, to her
Shaking in his seat, riding through the streets
To Newtown and straight to her door
To her door
To her door
To her door
And so it goes full circle, as those stories of yesteryear
Give way and the next appear
No less revered, nah, they’re treasured as legend here
But new diamonds in the rough make their presence clear
And all they want in this life is the chance to do their thing
But who got next can wait, I got now, I say
I want the top, top, top, top, top, top
All my people in the back of the spot
I want the top, top, top, top, top, top
If you know me you don’t know me to stop
I want the top, top, top, top, top, top
All my people in the back of the spot, let off a shot
Bringing that knife through butter flow out
Got summer sewn round my pinkie
One, two, won’t suffer no clowns
Didn’t know then, they about to know now
We run this shit like the buses broke down, huh
Now that’s one for the kids
Two for the stories, three for the gigs
Four for the right now and it don’t stop
When Cinematic drop, bets off
I said I want the top
I want the top, top, top, top, top, top
All my people in the back of the spot
I want the top, top, top, top, top
If you know me you don’t know me to stop
I want the top, top, top, top, top
All my people in the back of the spot, let off a shot
☯☮

Leon Durrant Agree! Illy makes us look good.
Don't forget cultural!
I've listened to many LAVs and I rate this as the best. So much effort and so well done by all involved, esp Illy, whose music I had never heard before watching this video. What an absolutely monumental performance.
Still all time version! Throwing it down like it should be done - serious talent from all performers
Saw Silverchair and had my attention... Awesome to see music from my times isn't lost on newer generations and they can 'update' music with their new experiences
Still the best Like a Version ever.
Still going back to watch the Maestro.
Just.
Respect.
I'm over 60 but love this to bits. What an amazing version.
Best like a version ever hands down.
By far the dopest Aussie MC to take on Like A Version - smashed it for 6 Illy..
this *is* my fav like a version of all time, bar none!!
Thanks, Illi, and all the other amazing musicians in this clip. You managed to acknowledge so many different artists and genres in one track.
Big props @
Never get tired of listening to this! Love how Illy pays homage to some of the great Aussie artists.
Much love and respect.
its funny ive never been to australia but i love australians
We love you too (You have beer right?)
LOL spot on
theres so much beer in my city that i could swim in it.

Cheers ;)
Anyone else love the male backup singers swag..? Also amazing drumming.
Think you'll find the backup singer is Joyride. V popular Aussie musician in the hip hop scene
Silverchair 💖👏
Illy, this is musical genius. Amazing work. Even listening to it the second time made my cry.
I come back and listen to this song every now and then and it gives me goosebumps. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.
I'd be lying if I said I listened to hip hop regularly but f**k me if the hip hop boys don't make the best like a versions!
If you haven't already, check out the Thundamentals cover of Matt Corby - Brother. Another great like a version by a hip hop group.
Yeah dude, I have heard them all they are amazing. Horrorshow's cover is probably my favourite Like-a-Version since Whitley did Dancing Queen back in the day.
S .Mokes Whitleys version of Dacing Queen is still one of my fav all times LIke A version. This one right up there as is San Cisco doing Get Lucky. All personal choice really.
Jokul Haupz thats for sure and the old "Only Nineteen" cover by the Herd..
S .Mokes n
so much going on its hard to comprehend
That cellist.. My god she is beautiful.
She's from a group called Aston based in Sydney. Check em out on YT - classical covers of pop songs
Hanna Oblikov
She is hot.
Have you seen the gang of youths LAV? She's got some eyes for Dave!! 😍
STRAYAAAA. always end up listening to this song when I come on CZcams.. Ozzie Ozzie Ozzie..
I see what you were trying to do here man and fuck, you landed right on the x. That was close to the best 5 minutes I've had in a long time. Awesome
MJK471 god i so agree man... A-MAY-ZINGG lol
+MJK471 Right on the X. Couldn't come closer if he spoofed on a bulls-eye.
nice reference
Dude he gave me chills in some references a good aussie musician
Wow!!!!!
I just wish I could hear this for the first time again.
I'm doing this right now
Cant even stop watching this. Straight up repeat all night. So Aussie, so awesome.
Fuck, I love Aussie artists and music! So good.
Let’s make this #1 LAV Hottest 100. CMON AUSTRALIA.
One of the best covers ever! Gets better every time I listen to it. 😎
12 months old and still love hearing this. A great tribute to Aussie music. Well done Illy and Co
This is probably one of my favorite "Like a version" covers out. Defiantly my favorite with rapping in it.
Vice Grip by In Hearts Wake is probably my favourite. Sends shivers down my spine.
Thundamentals....
thundamentals covering Matt Corby's brother is another fave
As a lover of both music in general, and Aussie hip hop, this is pure bliss.
9 years later and this still goes off like a frog in a sock!
To mash 4 songs into 1tribute and to pull it off. Amazing.
For it to still have people coming back after 9 years? A legendary effort by all involved!
still here in 2020, still as good as the first time hearing it.
This mash up sum up what triple j like a version should be, but also what it is to be Australian and it never gets old 🤙🏼✌🏼
everything joyride touches turns into gold
Love, love, LOVE. This song
This makes me so happy. Thank you Illy, for everything that you give everyone. You create happiness.
Please continue to do what you do!
let's get this to #1
