Lyrics:
Now and then I think of when we were together
Like when you said you felt so happy you could die
Told myself that you were right for me
But felt so lonely in your company
But that was love and it's an ache I still remember
You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness
Like resignation to the end, always the end
So when we found that we could not make sense
Well you said that we would still be friends
But I'll admit that I was glad it was over
But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough
No, you didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records and then change your number
I guess that I don't need that though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over
But had me believing it was always something that I'd done
But I don't wanna live that way
Reading into every word you say
You said that you could let it go
And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know
But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough
And you didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records and then change your number
I guess that I don't need that though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Somebody
(That I used to know)
Somebody
(That I used to know)
Somebody
(That I used to know)
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
(That I used to know)
(That I used to know)
(I used to know)
Somebody

How embarrassing, I just realised I'm the drunk idiot laughing behind Wally here 😳.
Epic moment!
Goodness haha
Where where?????
@@RickyMikky girl in the cowboy hat. I also have a phone in front of my face for most of song, rudely filming instead of watching!! 😳 haha (I didn't realise this was being filmed so I could watch later).
@@DiniMeows how lucky.... I wish to see him face to face.... ☺️☺️☺️..
His voice sounds even better now
What do u mean?
Pasao de vrg
Aged like a fine wine
Why does he sound so different? I'm not saying he sounds worse or better from before, he just sounds like another whole person. Huh, weird
Yes 😌
his voice aged like fine wine 🥴
Why that emoji? haha
not hating at all but still czcams.com/video/qvmEZTbNZ5M/video.html
@@dwaynejay2716 it's totally normal you idiot . Wine is conserved in a hermetic bottle with no air in it. This video just show how wine rotten without being hermetic.😐🤫
Noobmaster69 420 where the fuk did you find that
@@dwaynejay2716 thats not how you age wine
This song hits different when you are not a kid anymore🖤🥀
It hit different when this exact thing happened to me.
Damn right.
Facts
Balls are sweaty
@@SeadogstudioAlways does. A young lady I was best friends of, and hung out with her one on one, especially after she gave me support, said she's dating.
I felt like I was dating her, so now she's just somebody that I used to know.
Crazy. At 1:52 on the "so low", the rasp in his voice causes his voice to split overtones and the formants harmonize a minor third with the note he is singing. That's what makes textured voices so beautiful. What an incredible singer, he fills that room with his voice alone.
I actually searched for this full video after hearing a clip of this in Facebook and impressed with "so low" at 1:56. I don't know but it strikes right from my heart. 💘 I LOVED IT. 💖
I don't think that's his voice hitting that C. I think it's the guitar.
His voice is, however, incredible.
@@SixPieceSuits that's not what I said either! :)
I have no idea what any of that is but I really loved hearing that part.
@@Tandle779 I know. You said the grit in his voice made an overtone three half steps up. I hear that note, but I'm pretty sure your ears are tricking you, and it's just the guitar hitting that harmony.
When the world needed him the most, he disappeared, now coming back just to disappear again
Just like the Avatar
John Warren like all heroes do! Heroes are there when we need them.
@@grizzi0789
He never disappeared. He has a band and made some great content there. Look for "the basics".
@@fernandorodrigues5989 Thank you man!
Shout out to all the people who was trying to find out where he was
Yes mate
Yass
Yeah but it’s been 2
years lmao
Yes
Yes
3:34 “havyoufrenscolectyoricketsandechangeofnumber” I felt that.
Took me until 29 years of age to really appreciate this song and realize just how brilliantly it plays on my emotions. Fantastic piece.
Also bros voice aged like a fine wine.
man please bring him back ... I'm not over him yet
I need him back
@thestyffelife 1801 praying for Australia ... n it's a good news for us , Gotye fan ...
How did he die
Sh- we all need him back (｡•́︿•̀｡)
@@marwoosers_9724 he didn't die wtf
3:07 dude the chills
Honestly, I was baffled when I first heard that. That voice with that rasp and accuracy. I didn’t even listen to that on headphones yet I was mesmerized.
Right
God damn, that was SPOT ON !
Spot on
the best part of this, is that its not even his part of the song, he just started to sing it because nobody would sing the girl's part properly
There's something so natural, wholesome, and pure about how he sing and blends with the other artists. He looks genuinely happy having a jam session with no frills.
This is a BRILLIANT song. It should be heavily studied by songwriters and producers. To make the chorus about angst and to scream/belt it is a hell of an emotionally winning formula.
well, he copied Luís Bonfá's melody, just as other great musicians copied melodies from good Brazilian popular music
@@lmpagani He didn't copy it, Luis Bonfa wrote his song
@@lmpaganiJust the guitar melody instrumental is what was sampled
I don't think that's how songwriting works.
FUCK OFF HE DIDINT MAKE IT. DONALD MARSHALL DID. ASK HIM!
his voice ain't ever getting older, instead sound wiser.
you're goddamn right 👌🏻
Dude aged like fine wine
Damn.. I know his voice is good but never expected to be this good.
Mata tabi He’s absolutely amazing. Excited for his new album!
@@richtofen4888 good for him.. can't wait to listen, hope the best for his album
Man, this song gets better with age - it’s so raw, relatable and pure and he’s perfection singing it
His voice has aged like fine wine. Absolutely brilliant !!!!!
This particular song have been covered plenty of times, but I feel like Gotye is the only person who can sing this song "correctly" and uniquely.
It's his song, lmao
Да!yes!
because he is the original artist? This isn't a cover. LMAO!
Probably because it's his song, yeah?
Rita ora did a great cover of it on BBC live lounge
he's probably forget his youtube account password.
Ucup Ucup VBAHAHHAAH
bangke ahahahahahha
Wkwkwkwk
You could say it was something that he used to know
@@ChinChan912 smooth.
Probably one of the best live performances I've ever heard. His voice is just perfect. I wonder if he had a sore throat afterwards. Really good to listen to.
Congratulations to Gotye, he is one of the rare artists that can sing in live exactly (if not better) like the studio version, hitting all high notes with no mess.
The silence of the audience just show how they respect this masterpiece.
Yes
Absolutely. Placebo's MTV Unplugged is the exact same. Total respect from the audience.
He seems like he has a very interesting personality would love to see him come back.
1000000% agree
He's so classy.
@@TheBella397 6ii66l 7 i7oi
He's never really stopped making music. He's been constantly working on his own musical project called The Basics, he dropped some stuff as Gotye and got way bigger than he was expecting which is why he vanished from the industry. He never wanted to have a lot of fame, he's a lot happier just contributing to music groups.
I would fight him in the water.
His voice is so much stronger... hope he comes up with more songs now it's great to hear it again ...now playing everywhere in last three months
There's such a change in his voice. He's always improving!!!
I don´t think many people have realized, but this song is hard to sing. Amazing work.
I mean, the chorus is hard but the first, second and kimbra's verse are easy
The difficulty is really different between people's voices. It's really easy for me to sing, but it's impossible for one of my friends who is an objectively better singer than me. It's all about voice types
MGG1625 more range tbh if u moved it to a different key ur pal would be able sing it
@@ghjkldss8421 yeah, that's what I tell him, but he always insists on singing it in original key
He is identical to my boys
Dude crushed it with one song, gained a net worth of $10 million, and disappeared.
I respect someone who knows when they hit gold and cash out. Living the dream.
He didn't cash out. The song got copy righted and he lost 50% the money the song made. He could of went against the claim but he didn't care and encouraged others to use it for free. He loved music and didn't care about making tons of money. I might not be 100% right but it was something like that!
THATSMIKE 50% is still a lot of money. I heard this song everywhere
@@MexiCooki Yea you are not wrong, but 50% is 50%
@@thatsmike1 I just checked on that in the internet... You're completely right: 50 % equals 50 % .... NO DOUBT!!!
Actually he has a few pretty good other songs ;)
I just love how happy Gotye is, bobbing away, clueless to the absolute sensation he has created... mad
This song hits a lot different when you grow up and can actually relate to it
Just before the first chorus, see that smirk? He knows he's gonna blow everybody out of the water with how much his voice has matured.
Minstrels Davis he sis it because they messed up the music not because he was ready , it was meant to be a bass solo and they forgot
@@era._7202 Typical bass player problems
@@Auspexel lol
I saw it
@@Auspexel you don't have to do them like that
He is not as awkward as he used to be
Yet I always found him to be attractive 😂
Cause he isn't that person we used to know
@@grizzi0789 😂😂😂😂
Beard helps
@@grizzi0789 get out
The entire album is pure gold. Love every songs in there.
I don’t understand how his voice got even better 🤯🤯🤯
I like this version more than the original. His voice sounds better and the guitars fit in so good.
The first strum of the guitar after Kimbra's part always hits me hard
me too
I didn’t realize how amazing his voice is even without studio editing.
The whole Gotye album had a particular production quality. And some of those songs were really great. I think the original song matches the album. But the live version gives it a dope vibe for sure.
It was so good they put it on Spotify!
1:36. He made that face like, "Here we go!" I was kinda caught off guard how it went from barely audible to super loud. Sounded great though.
1:57. His high notes are better in this performance I think.
Actually I think that was him politely letting the musicians know that they're messing up. Lol.
yes dude he sounded gorgeous back then, but he sounds more beautiful nowww i mean WE DONT DESERVE HIM
3:10 gave me chills and almost made me cry at the same time
Love him singing Kimbras part on this version he absolutely killed it! Been jamming to this one since it came out.
due to less pollution, we can finally see Gotye.
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Underrated 😂😂😂
lmao
What about india...
😂😂
dude is tortured to sing the same song for like 8 years so far
But it is a Good song
@@royalecr3896 yeah but after singing it for a while, you get tired of it, regardless of how good the song is
@@Daichifan1 i know....
@@royalecr3896 obviously not
It's still good and fuckin addicting
Beautiful and simple. Best single of that decade.✌️
Started as a noob singer, i won't expect him that he would become
a legendary within ten years.
I really respect him. 😁
His voice is insane
It's so humbling to see a singer who sounds exactly like they do in their official song release. No edits, just raw voice.
This is one of these iconic songs. I just don't ever get tired of it.
It’s incredible how his voice matured. Like a fine wine. Badass.
Damn, I agree with the 90% of the comments talking about his voice now. It sounds so good with the slight gravely sound to it.
exactly
It cleans all my earwax
Sounds crackly from overuse.
No one from the audience sings along with gotye. This shows how precious his voice is, and how ppl still dont know to pronounce "makeitlikeitnevahappendandweweretogether".
happenenen lol
Actually,it's(makeitlikeitneverhappenedandthatwewerenothing).👍
@@margieabanes7259 its make "out" like it never happened and that we were nothing.
Im on the fucking floor HAHAHAHAAHAHHA
@@julioelcomander3252 😂😂
Gotye is amazing. I keep imagining a duo with Sting, it would be EPIC!
Outstanding, only he can sing this song. His vocal range is unreal.
Total respect. ✊🙏👏👏👏👏
This guy. he looks familiar. He looks like somebody that I used to know.

Attached to his voice. It took not only my heart but also my soul
We need him in 2020
corona would be disappear
3:09 had me speechless ❤️
Gives me memories as a teenager when I tried to nail that. I nailed it somehow.
Simplicité, puissance, émotion. L'un des plus grands de ces dernières années. Pas le plus connu mais c'est peut être là sa force !
2:57 Oh Lord!! His voice is very pleasant to hear!
*-"Unplugged"*
*-Starts with an electric guitar*
I guess it refers to the lead guitar :/
@YoStefan sound wouldnt really be that great if they werent
Classic
this isnt really what unplugged means, it means straight live so like no live autotune or anything
@@mrbuzgaming actually, no.
2:29 that smile🥺❤
2:40 okay he kinda nailed that part lmao
He kinda sound like kimbra at that part😂
Incredibly talented!
Brilliant! That guy on the acoustic guitar is so spot on.
He's using his fingers though.
He’s an awesome singer!
0:50 pigeons be like
I think it's that pigeon that left that guy who escaped from dE pOliCe
@@mentirosa__ oh god... I think you are right 😳
Now that pigeons somebody that they used to know
omg i literally laughed so hard
Hahahahahah
He looks happy performing a sad song. I’m glad he is having fun and enjoying it after all
Houston shiver down my spine when I hear this I am in my early sixties and I've been in this type of relationship in my 50s it cuts to the Mirror thank you
I don't understand how someone with such talent isn't mainstream anymore, holy moly
Because he only released a couple of songs since the album this was on. maybe he didn't like the attention or something cause i feel like if he kept releasing music around that time, it would've been successful
He said it was project and that's it 😂 he is dumb or a genius
well simply because he's just a one hit wonder and nothing else!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Archie Ailar he made many good songs
@@andreacalamai1796 yeah....
he looks so comfortable on stage now, i miss him so much
Watching this 11 years later hits different
Haunting. Ironic. Original. Beautiful.
Compared to his other performances. He looks really happy in this one with a lot of energy. Love it 🤘
Dude looks rested 👌
🤝
This guy has real talent. It's a shame he couldn't go further after this song came out. The song is pure genius though.
Why he couldn't tho?
That's just how a "1 hit wonder" works
Lol what he literally has a bunch of songs that are just as good
He got a lot of good songs, just not as popular ones.
He’s an introvert, he didn’t want to make money off of his art. Not about him being a 1 hit wonder.
This version is so beautiful and seeing his little cheeky smile before his first chorus! Amazing
I am a big fan of Gotye and all of his music. I have seen him live and think he is a musical genius (my humble opinion that is not based on any qualifications). There is something magical about this song and it has a great impact on the listener (opinion!!).
Don't get me wrong, this song is a masterpiece, but it feels like it destroyed his career. This guy has got so many amazing pieces of music… one hit "wonders" kill musicians.
adrian5b yea it’s too much to pressure and when he had to make a duet for that song it’s hard to enjoy making music
yeah 1 hit wonder really exist...
I mean hes not in it for the money.
He's said that he's not really upset about being a "one hit wonder" because he's not looking to make money off his music
@@DeadpoolLIFE69 It has nothing to do with money, it's that he's got a lot of good music but no one knows about it.
This is GOLD, what an amazing song and performance.❤
Every few months I come back... Holy shit
This version is gold, vocals so different to the original song, and the power of his voice is really impressive.
2:44 “the girls can do it, guys sings low”
Vitas: hold my vocal chords...
Damn, I'm a kid and MyVocals get deep at that part.

Sometimes i find myself in here cause i think this is the best song of breakups , real feeling and love. In real love nothing is really pure like this song. I love it so. Told myself that you were right for me
But felt so lonely in your company
But that was love and it's an ache I still remember
. I really felt that.
Oke
How could he do this live. So so high an octave for a guy. He earns my respect
3:05 the hand in the back 😂
OMG
I ugly laughed at this😂
It's Kimbra hahaha
What the hell 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nora Katreen Harik 😂😂☺️
Can he please make a come back??? I didnt appreciate this song when it first came out but it's absolutely fucking amazing
Wow, his voice shocked me 👏
2021 still listening to this beautifull song
who the frick isnt?
I don't know why but watching this makes me sad because this song came out in the greatest years of my childhood and now seeing how much older he looks and his voice just makes me realise how fast times change and how we grow up so fast
I've listened this song a million times... and I never get bored.
Love this. The restraint, & the power. Beautiful all,
Man he ripped his chords in this version he puled more chest in to chorus than in originale, you can hear that his voice starts to became rough and cracky, but this is history. So sooo good, this man is legend so good singer!
it's like a good old wine 🍷
When you sing on edge it tires you 100x more, so Im actually surprised he managed to sing the chorus second time without cracking. Its sounds awsomely natural too.
Yes, so much impact.
Holyshit that name haha 😂
I'm guessing he hurt his vocal cords a bit in the first chorus, but wow, what a voice. Absolutely top class performance. He seems so lovely too. Just love this version.
He just looks like a nice guy doesn't he
Yupp
I want to be his friend.
He looks like a former gangster and become a multi millionare that do a daily donations to charity
He looks like an extrovert Michael Cera.
He looks like shane from vampire diaries in this one lol
this is probably the best thing i have ever seen o.o
I wanna THANKFUL For him!! Hes a AMAZING Singer much better then the original song.
Amosional!!!!
Hes voice break my heart😢
I Lovve YOU GoTYE!!!! 🥰🙏🙏
I’d still pay money to watch him perform this song and even more for this version .
I like how he had to confirm on social media that the rumors about him being dead were not true.
Yeah, He was taking tiem off and STOPING RUMORS!
He seems so happy, good for him.
3:03 that scream, that yell into the void.. I felt that. Such a hauntingly beautiful Life we've got huh?
3:05 kimbra exposed
Underrated comment.😂❤️
OML I CAN'T--- 😂
Can't stop listening to this... anyone else?
Don't know how many and go on 😅
Imao i like this verson better
Immortal_101_ same ,dude
Me too, this is my favorite song since I was 9 and his voice it's just amazing :)
He sounds amazing singing both parts.
I will never tire of hearing Wally sing this song. I can't get it out of my head. And he is adorable.
