The sound of so many drums playing together is so pleasing...that's why the live performance is even better than the original recorded song...amazing to hear this even after so many years!
The live is better to hear when you are hyped or something but the studio one is better when you iust want to enjoy the song, not on mood etc. Etc. I prefer both
if you get the chance to see them live, see them in a closed theater instead of an outside theater. You can literally feel the drums in your bones when they play this live it’s absolutely insane
They are AMAZING live. The transition to each song is flawless. I’ve heard this live and it is unbelievable! As the other comment said, definitely experience indoors. Highly recommend. This band puts on quite a performance.
Agreed, that's the reason I haven't purchased it yet. Live has all this energy that the studio doesn't capture. Their performance of this at the LOL World Championships was incredible.
I have to agree. I like this version better than the recorded one. Hope they perform this at this year`s Grey Cup. Football Championship of the Canadian Football League for those who don`t know.
@@asesino_xddd4573 Eso es poco comparado a una comparsa dónde tienes que tocar el tambor con las manos durante horas, mi padre una vez llegó a casa con las manos y el tambor cubierto de sangre, y me contó que ni así paró de tocar 😱, ahora tiene las manos como un golem de piedra XD
Sounding the same is good, but for me a band is truly great when they add a little something to every live performance with improvision like most bands used to. John Mayer, Dave Matthew's are two of the few who still do that.
i went to their concert and didn't know this is how they play radioactive live and when they added that drum bit in the middle i was just so amazed. i couldn't believe they managed to make this song even better than on the cd. honestly, THIS is how to perform live. it's not about plainly singing every song from the cd, it's about the feeling of the music live and about giving the audience an opportunity to experience the music in a special way. the whole concert was just amazing.
Yeah they are even better live! But I heard that more often than normal the song we hear in live concert are probably the original version but because their version are too long, bands and artists create a shorter edition for the radio, because radio stations are bitch who edit any song to long with a solo so they can put their ads...
Lets spare a moment to appreciate the whole band not just Dan for the efforts. I mean look at the drummer. The dude was about to pass out!! Best live performance by a band. Try changing my mind.
1350 shut up. What the hell do you know about rock? This here is real music unlike Ariana Grande, Justin Beiber, Dua Lipa, Cardi B, Nicki Minhaj, Drake and all those other wannabe fake ass singers who think they’re cool. Hell , they can’t do shit without autotune and they plainly suck. This here is a band that owns any stadium, any joint, any festival, any live event they enter and brings the house down without autotune. Imagine Dragons is the daddy of the industry!!!
every time he sings a song its better then before he just keeps getting better hope they will in the future as well I don't know about you guys u might have your own favs yes I have heard coldplay, panic at the disco and others but this band is still on the top for me
Ofcourse we don't know each other. But still if you like this ❤️ I'll receive notification and instantly I'll play this masterpiece once more. Thanks for reminding me ❤️❤️
Imagine Dragons has been my life line in the past year. I love them more and more all the time. I have many favorite songs but I am drawn to these guys the most. I'm considered as a old lady with my kids. But is it so bad I'm 53? I feel like 20!
this guy is crazy!! half way through the show his adrenaline is rushing so hard that he has to struggle to keep singing without messing up, judging by his quivering voice.... this guy's body is flying high, and he definitely is enjoying himself up there on stage.
Its been 10 years and this one still my favorite live performance of this song. I’m from Brazil, but Not even the one at Lollapalooza feels better, this one is so raw and unique, i Love that
Kasabian has more power on stage tho they're also amazing on albums... Placebo also... and they're bands like IAMX they sounds crystal clear live and the same on albums
One of the best parts of live concerts is that artists can add their own variations to their songs on the spot and it can enhance the quality of the song. This performance is a good example of that. 😎
This song LIVE is and will always be the best version because of the instrumental in the middle you won't ever find on the studio album or anywhere else!!!!!!!!
I can agree but that's what you get when your out of breath from a live performance, you cant blame them. the main point is that his vocals are how they are in the songs and not some fabricated/recorded crap. The instruments are always similar sounding on stage or in booths, so there's never a problem there. I love this group!
Ok seriously. I thought this was one of those bands with computerized music and wasn't impressed. Never thought he could really sing without the help of studios IM SO SORRY!!!! I'm so lucky I get to jam out to all this brand new in 2020 . Hell yes!!!!!
It's rare that you find a band as talented as this... No bullshit gimmicks, no crap autotune, just pure music that flows straight from their hearts and into your ears. The fact alone that there's that many concert band instruments on stage says a lot. What other bands as of late use any of those? That's real music right there
My son turned me onto Imagine Dragons. We we were always into music as he was a bassist first and then could play any instrument. He and I owned a radio station and recording studio in Philly. When I had my radio show I was a sucker for great covers. And my son’s friend turned me onto Pentotonix covering this song with Lindsey playing the violin. Awesome cover !!! And paying tribute to the original band. There is nothing like the original and then having someone do a great cover!! Music inspires! And the takeaway is stays with you forever!
This performance gives me such an incredible tension relief of built up anxiety and anger.Holy shit is this powerful! My favourite performance ever. Much love to you all xx
Essa versão dessa música é a coisa mais incrível que eu já ouvi. Quando eu me sinto pra baixo eu apenas coloco esse vídeo, fecho meus olhos e esqueço tudo o que está à minha volta. Nesse tempo o meu corpo e minha mente relaxam, eu sinto como se meu coração batesse junto aos tambores e todo o meu cérebro se concentrasse em apenas interpretar os impulsos nervosos que são enviados pelos meus ouvidos. Eu me sinto muito bem após o final disso, me sinto motivado, esperançoso, confiante. Se eu soubesse a hora da minha morte eu iria começar esse vídeo 6 minutos e 38 segundos antes do exato momento para que a última coisa que eu ouvisse fosse isso.
imagine dragons' music has always been so important to me personally. their songs hit me hard and remind me of so many memories. not any other band has ever meant to me so much. one day i got to see them live and it was rly the best day of my life. especially radioactive in the end, since the first time i heard it 3 years ago it's been my life goal to hear it live and i did. i am so thankful for them and their music. thank you imagine dragons.
Some performances are just perfection, I keep coming back to this video and it heals a part of me that I lose sometimes, I have so much love for this performance I cant even express in words.
@@MohitSharma-dy9vn That's a ridiculous comment. When they have done as much as Floyd for as long then we can talk But they are really good I will give you that much. Saw a clip of them doing Thunder and that all looked lip synced though..
I am very old school being raised in the era of 8-tracks & progressive rock. I had the tv on as backround & wasn't even watching. SNL was on & they were the musical guests. I had never heard of them. As soon as I heard them play this, I stopped what I was doing & sat down to watch, totally fascinated by what I was seeing & hearing. So...I guess you can teach an old dog new tricks.
5:30 look at how he walks towards the crowd and raises his pick before unleashing pure fire...that solo was a perfect end to a brilliantly conducted live version of this track. What a rockstar, gave me chills.
wtf is wrong with u people i just said ID the best band for me right now and u guys started arguing wid each other no wonder this generation is going nowhere :/
1 round of the song = 6min and 38 seconds We will call it as 398 seconds No of times watched = 7071 Therefore seconds u watched it is 2,814,258 seconds Which is equal to 781.738 hours Which also means 33 days approx Well if u are correct then u have wasted almost a month and more And I have wasted 5 mins in telling u that u wasted time and the reader has wasted more time and the reader will probably take a screenshot and oh his /her friend will waste more time , god what am I doing with my life?
