Josh Homme and Queens of the Stone Age perform a stripped back piano version of 'The Way You Used to Do' for Huw Stephens on the BBC Radio 1 Piano Sessions.
Yeah this is mainly coming from Josh, he is often in that sensual zone, you can hear it perfectly here in his voice, but almost in every songs, even the most robotic dark ones
Josh: Sorry, Jon, we don´t really need you on this version, you would feel useless Jon: Okay Josh: Sorry, Troy, we don´t really need you on this version, you would feel useless Troy: I´ll still come, don´t worry
This voice....I discovered them about a month ago one night i couldnt sleep and was watching tv, and going from one channel to another i found a concert, it was live at werchter 2018, i missed the beginning but i was, who is that???? and who is this so charming singer?? when there was "song for the dead" i can't describe how i felt, i couldnt beleive i didnt know them. I've been a fan of the Beatles and Elvis Costello all my life, Led Zeppelin, the Clash, Madness, i no longer read the "rock" magazine i used to read and we no longer have on tv a so great music program i loved (i am French) and it can explain why i didnt know them but still, what if i had not seen that concert that night?? I also realised that he plays drums in the band (that i didnt know either) that was at the Bataclan on the night of the Paris attacks, but wasnt there that night. Fortunately there is the internet so i can find tons of informations, pictures, concerts, videos, the albums (i started with "songs for the deaf" that i play all day and i love particularly "the sky is fallin'", how intense and beautiful, it makes me almost cry). When i discovered Costello one afternoon as i was 16 there was not all that information etc available and i couldnt even find all the albums in Montpellier, fortunately i went to London that summer and like a crazy girl i bought all the records i could find. I am sure everyone here understands how it can feel to discover QOTSA. Greetings from France!

My theory is that this is the original version of the song and the Album's the remix. Why? for the same reason they've trolled another song "unreborn again" by dropping volume midway. "Villains" sounds way better on piano too, but they trolled it on the album like an over-decorated christmas tree. What you have to understand is they're no santa. They are the villains of this album.
Mike the bassist looks so nervous for most of this, and I get it. This version has so much negative space it would be so easy to make a random noise and spoil it
Josh’s voice is fucking heaven
thank you for this comment
2:02
One of the few frontmen who can actually sing live as well as they do in the studio albums
Josh Homme is like a weird stoned out metal Elvis
"punk" Elvis rather
f'in awesome isn't it haha
My wife calls him Blonde Elvis
@@mrsleep0000 he's ginger.
He's also known as ginger Elvis
I've never seen somebody make it seem as effortless with such sheer class.
They’re better musicians than anyone you have seen before that’s why
@@DigitalDaffodiltruth has been told
And they say gingers have no souls. Josh, amazing as ever.
Ginger Elvis!!
So Josh moonlights as a jazz singer? This is gold
I love how Mike and Troy sings "Tu-tuuu" with that serious face. I would be laughing my ass off, but they know this is something serious!
Exactly!! Especially Mikey!! So super bad ass and suave! 👌
That man's voice, absofuckinglutely amazing!
Dean is a fucking genius
So much sensuality in one band
I'd like to come and love you now, Josh ❤️.
Yeah this is mainly coming from Josh, he is often in that sensual zone, you can hear it perfectly here in his voice, but almost in every songs, even the most robotic dark ones
If you haven't seen them live you have to hands down best band you can see
all of their songs feel like they could be classics from some other era
Josh: Sorry, Jon, we don´t really need you on this version, you would feel useless
Jon: Okay
Josh: Sorry, Troy, we don´t really need you on this version, you would feel useless
Troy: I´ll still come, don´t worry
the bromance between josh and troy are too strong over the years
Twizzy gon’ twitch if he couldn’t
Tibor Kovac lol..that is HILARIOUS. They are really good..like this version too..the rat pack were always "close" too
He sings backupvocals, but this is hilarious xD
TVL is a bad motherfucker
Jesus, I wish that live could become an EP or something
This might be the best version of this song
I fucking love josh's voice
Holy shit, just when I thought QOTSA couldn't get more classy Josh decides to go full Dean Martin. Awesome!
This version is absolutely gorgeous.
Like warm golden syrup trickling down the spine of a goddess. This is what heaven sounds like.
Me at the start of the video: Oh shit, is not with the full band.
*Josh starts singin*: Damn, they have me.
troy boy absolutely killing those snaps
I met Josh when I was 17. He is such an incredible talent.
HOLY SHIT I LOVE THIS BAND SO BAD. THIS IS GENIUS.
god DAYUM josh!!
love them on tour, they always record the most amazing, unthinkable versions of the album songs
I knew Josh had a good voice but DAMN 🥵🥵
LOVE THIS MAN!!
Holy Shit dude can sing!
Fucking brilliant. Josh's singing is magic.
It just makes me angry of the amount of people that haven't discovered qotsa
Mason Seymour would be good for sales but part time fans n hipsters can fuck off and be ignorant somewhere else
Mason Seymour don’t be angry. Be happy that you have found them
Back in 98 we didn’t want people to discover the secret

Still looking for one lol

THE FOLLOWING COMMENT IS PAID FOR BY GEORGE SOROS he age like a mortal but he’s always been this legend
Cool can be defined as something cold but Josh is FIRE 🔥
Ginger Elvis never dissapoints me.

Damn!!
Good God that was great!
really shines a candle on the West Side Story angle of this song
Oh wow

Never knew TVL was such a good snappist

Joshua has a super duper head of hair 🤘
