Chet Faker - 'Talk Is Cheap' (live for Like A Version) 

"Oh shit." - Me, immediately after he finished. That was too good.

so talented! ive never seen a blind person play a keyboard so well before

Even though he's not playing jazz, he's got that vibe and way of carrying himself

Is it just me or this is way better than the album version ?

play song button ---> 1:45

so gorgeous. Saw him do it like this live and the whole venue just stopped. Could barely here anyone breathing because he took everyones breath away

Love the "bit of distance" line; I'm listening from quarantine nearly six years since this was posted - you've no idea how appropriate "a bit of distance" has become!

love it how chet pulls his hand away randomly while playing the keys like a Dj would, i know he mixes too, probably got it from there, still looks nice

Thanks for cutting the preamble out of all of these. I still listen to them all.

Such a suave song and even better performance. I find myself feeling slightly jealous of the presenters getting such an intimate performance. Big up for the video post.

one of the best performers out there , and one of the best lyrics too

Oh wow I loved his music before but man he is amazing live.

Kudos again to Triple J's amazing sound engineers for giving us a Chet Faker performance that sounds like he is in the room with us. Lovely performance of his excellent song. What a pity our conservative government sees this as a waste of money. There is nothing wasteful about making thousands of people happy everyday.

'talk is cheap my darling' such great meaningful lyrics. love chad faker

his voice is like melted honey that I want to massage all over my entire naked body i mean what

Beautiful

Sublime always.

Beautiful. Better then the recording for the album.

his voice is heavenly

Thank you so much for cutting the first ~1:45 of talking at the beginning. I had this on a playlist and would have to manually pull up the video & skip past the talking every time. It is a much appreciated edit you made, so thank you for doing so even all these years after uploading, triple-j!

I'm so amazed at two angels singing

About the glasses. He is a musician. A good musician. Please remember the time of day they shoot this every Friday at 8:10am. They are up early when they normally are sleeping in they are bleary eyed for gods sake. People focus and latch onto tge lamest things sometimes.

Heard a few disappointed comments from the Sydney show about the absence of the saxophones but i personally loved this beautiful performance! I swear you could hear the collective sighs coming from everyone in the theatre; absolute goosebumps

god im so glad to have seen him live, best night of my life, let alone best show

Sooo great 😍😍

Beautiful voice, I will need to invest in his latest cd.

pqp! amo demais essa música!

It's so beautiful 😢

Obsessed with this song

Gotta love the RU-vid algorithm for recommending this at 2am on a Monday night 8yrs after it was performed!

So in love with him lol

Oh so, your weak rhyme You doubt I bother reading into it I'll probably won't Left to my own devices But that's the difference in our opinions You're a mouthful That amounts for another week on my own Now I'm a novel made resourceful I start a chain with my thought Talk is cheap, my darling When you're feeling right at home I wanna make you move with confidence I wanna be with you alone Said help me help you start it You're too comfortable to know Throwing out those words Oh, you gotta feel it on your own Cold pain I cannot sustain it That's what I'm thinking Not what I'm drinking I hold up my ways These thoughts are pervasive It's not a statement But peace can be evasive You're a mouthful That accounts for another week on my own Now I'm a novel made resourceful I start a chain with my thought Talk is cheap, my darling When you're feeling right at home I wanna make you move with confidence I wanna be with you alone Said help me help you start it You're too comfortable to know Throwing out those words Oh, you gotta feel it on your own Talk is cheap, my darling When you're feeling right at home I wanna make you move with confidence I wanna be with you alone Said help me help you start it You're too comfortable to know Throwing out those words Oh, you gotta feel it on your own

Chet Faker, you are brilliant!!!!!

This guy is epic live perfect voice

This was so good I got goosebumps listening to it

This is so good.

i love when artists talk their own language. Analogy galore :)

Beatiful Song!

best channel ever, all we need at the office to create beautiful design is great music, thank you.

Beautiful!

I can't stop coming back to this

Seeing this performed live in Melbourne made me realise how much better the piano version is...and the real version is amazing, so that's saying something

Words are historic, but meaning is everlasting

The notes of that piece touch o deep, I don't know how to describe it,

😍☄️

So glad Matt and Alex are back next week.

after those chords I just start my 'woooooo' can't wait to see you! :D

Majestic

Great Style, Great live performance. this video will def be 'lingggering' for me..

He sounds great live

dont know if i could recognize this guy if he shaved his beard ^^

This is incredible.

Why you so cool chet !! Damnnnn 😖😖

aa fofinho demaissssss

Ahh Lewis! "Like an old man in the park"! I've missed you in the mornings buddy :D

made me cry again, damn it

Regardless of his sunglasses and hat (really people? Who freakn cares), this is a really good performance and dat voice tho.

go Chat love you music so glad you won...

About time Chet reaches Like A Version

love it

The fucking hand?!!?

cool

chills

This is just perfect.

to people complaining about his hat and glasses, would you have asked slash to take off his hat and glasses?

Best!

I always get really interested to hear him do this song live - I love this song to pieces, but it always makes me wonder why he sings the melody of the verses differently. I don't think I've ever heard him sing it the same as the recording live, it usually seems to be much higher like in this video as opposed to the lower range of the recording. I do enjoy both though, I just find it interesting

If that’s what you can do at 70%!! Amazing!!

When it's only piano, it sounds just like :"Nespresso, what else?"

This comment section: 2% music starts at 1:45 8% this is absolutely amazing 10% people complaining about the glasses and hat 80% people complaining about the people complaining about the glasses and hat

Legend of Lyrics!

Hottest 100 winner!!!!

Супер исполнение👍👍👍 в Казахстане тоже слушают его

SLAY MY LIFE WITH YOUR FINGERNAILS

his voice is perfect:(

unreal voice

1:43

A singing beard, I love it

Ugh yes. Today is a great day now

Im in love :O

the one and only

I love when it cuts outs often, so sensual

Damn .. He is to Good

Got some shivers, and only 50% of that is because it's cold as dicks.

SO good

Love this song! Chet Faker, you are brilliant. (I'm 53 years old so you're not just for the youngsters! lol)

Ah beautiful man

Should have played this version as the hottest 100 number one!!

Ooo wee Nick Murphy!!

I LOVE YOU CHET FAKER
