Pendulum cover Taylor Swift's 'Anti-Hero' for Like A Version 

Does Taylor Swift approve?

spotify release when?

Pendulum are ghey.

@@Danwuuuright now

For real! Genuinely had no idea it was a cover until the lyrics.

That’s the Pendulum way for remixes though! Look at their remix of Voodoo People by The Prodigy for example!

I agree

fuck do you mean "they didn't change too much" lmao they changed everything but the lyrics

@@TillyP even then, they changed a line of lyrics at 2:09 for the better XD

It's like nickleback

Lol I have a "gray folder" for music like this.

yo matttt , big fan !!

Legend himself 🔥

i remember getting fucked up on the mandurah line with pingerz to go see pendulum ay thats about all i remember

I'm only asking you cover more of them PLEASE hahahaha

We need a cover of this with the cameraman jumping about

YEP. Same here 😂

He's a legend!

Noooo...... 😂😂 serious?? 😂

@@itsdan722 oh, he does some other races as well. But yes. Massive pro-cycling nerd. Extremely Welsh. He's great!

@@alstorer thats made my day bro 😆

Transports you back in time into 80s with his voice

its because its a lip sync, but still great band

@@JamesZero Not entirely lip sync, but it's layered with either prerecorded vocal (or added in post-production).

couldnt agree more.

If TS stopped performing altogether, she could still continue to make a fortune between writing songs for other artists and royalties from her own material being covered.

@austintrousdale2397 I 100% agree. I've played covers for pop snobs, and they love it until I say it's a T Swift song. I used to be like that in my youth. Now it's more guilt, just pleasures!

Yeah, even anti-TS-ers need to admit that superb songwriters will always inspire superb covers. What an absolute BANGA!

Check out Alex Melton he does some great stuff similar to this - repackaging songs

Same!!

Happy they changed that sus line, lol.

​@@BiggusNickus It's a reference to a scene in 30 rock where a grown woman had a baby voice and a childish look. Taylor is basically saying she feels like everyone around her is young and pretty and that she feels like she's a monster. The line isn't meant to be sus.

@@BiggusNickus you must not do well with pop music if that's your reaction to the word 'baby' lol

@@ltbqHIT ME BABY, ONE MORE TIME!

I thought the exact same thing as soon as i saw this on my feed. Worlds colliding in the best way possible!

100!!

Didn’t know you could like both!

@@TheRedhillwolf you can like all things my friend!

@@WezzyCruze very true mate, my music taste is pretty broad as well. I go from the likes of Pendulum to Morcheeba! We may disagree on Taylor but we both bloody love Pendulum 🔥🔥

If you haven't heard it look up the ABC theme tune remix they did its hilariously good😂

​@@jono6379the abc theme remix goes absolutely prehistoric

it's autotuned out the ass the whole song you cant even hear his voice

Exactly!!!

“The voice of EDM” what?

Legend

effect just fried his ears lmao

Common Pendulum W

😂​🎉🎉😢😢

From average to nothing.

They're pretty bloody massive in the UK!

Its sad they kinda died off in Australia, I think they said at their show in Perth that's just gone, when they left for the UK they did one final show in Perth and only 7 people showed up, same things happened with similar bands like The Presets as well I feel

@@heckin_dinosaw whatt that sucks a lot :(

They were huge and on the verge of becoming a massive arena band and then they went on hiatus. Rob fell out of love with the game because of all the outside bullshit. When they came back the world had changed a lot.

@@sidgeaberration I believe that was after they left Aus tho, at the live Perth show they just did, Rob talked about the last time they were in Perth only 7 people showed up, so they had pretty much died out in Aus which was why they left for the UK

New ep comes out November 3rd

@@heckin_dinosawit’s such a tease though, I want a full album damn it 😅

@@THL_Jontae yeah, sadly I don't think we're gonna get a full album any time soon, it's better for them to release songs slowly with the way most algorithms work on streaming services now

@@kushagra3946thank you you get exactly what I’m saying 👊😁

They won't for a while, it's more lucrative for them to release EPs

Best cover since Denzel Curry of Rage Against the Machine

Karnivool's cover of London grammar from years ago now is another dope one!

not even close

Northeast party house cover of Violent sohos Covered in Chrome

sad to see the wiggles elephant cover does not get any recognition

Haha for real

Why ? :D

No one would have known who Taylor swift was back then, and the world was a better place for it 🤣🤣

Oh god, same here.. 😂😂😂 2010 Rob was so different. I hope he's happier now for real for real. He doesn't realize how bright of a beacon he is in this dark world for some of us 😅

@@Cammo199that’s not true lmao. Taylor Swift was massive pre 2010 too

Ikr

Would have been fun... But you know what would have been more fun... The island part 2 coming after part 1... I...I..I'm still waiting for it 😭

@@alexmiesch4423 But it's already out?

@@FROSKI_Music haha, I meant at the recent live show. They played the island part 1 but didn't go into part 2. I was devastated 😆

@@alexmiesch4423 aye I realised that after I wrote my comment haha I think Part 2 is made more for the DJ sets than the live show so it makes sense for it to be absent unfortunately

Yes it is

yes!

Dude. That is a studio version. No disrespect to either Pendulum or Triple J, but it's a glorified music video, and *blatantly* not a live performance. The most obvious thing is how many times the audio and video are completely out of sync (e.g. what you can see the musicians playing vs. what you can hear have literally nothing in common). The second is the production quality, plus mixing & mastering. Even if this was a take directly off the sound board, this is way, way too clean. On the upside - a studio version exists, and it's just a matter of whether anyone (Triple J, most probably) releases it.

@@srsbsns7673 So Rob Swire is one of the most respected Producers / Sound Engineers in the industry and the live production quality is always this good because he doesn't tolerate less. He always has a backing track on his vocals to create the "full" sound and KJ Sawka, the drummer, has a hybrid drum kit that also triggers some ( not all ) of the electronic elements / drum parts that would require more than 2 hands. Perry ( guitar ) and Gaz ( Base ) are playing their parts live. There is 100% another guitar part or synth they are not playing. For a 1 off, they did a pretty damn good job as the band here but this is definitely a live recording that had the camera work edited in post.

@@pbatt705 I know perfectly well how respected Rob Swire is. They also do sound really good live in general because of how much care and attention to detail they put into their shows. This reminds me much more of typical RU-vid music, however, which is defined by pre-recording the audio and then miming to it live. I don't doubt that they're playing live in the room, but I really don't think that's what we're hearing. I will happily grant we **could** be hearing actual live instrument/mic feeds, but I am very doubtful (which is okay, the end result sounds absolutely brilliant regardless). I can keep going on with the things that stick out. The cymbals don't sound right based on the mic placements (I know the rest of the drum kit is electronic and triggering samples). There are whole sections (e.g. starting around 0:46) where there is cymbal work that KJ is clearly not playing live, but is mixed exactly like the rest of the drums rather than clearly being an additional backing track. There is heavier-than-live pitch correction on Rob's vocal track, and sounds exactly like how he handles vocals on a typical album track and not how he sings live (which is still effects-heavy with pitch correction, but he takes more liberties with notes). Rob's singing volume vs. mic distance is generally consistent but there are some hiccups that would be difficult to explain without a very high level of compression that would be hard to square with the level of audible dynamics. The guitar and bass parts have absolutely zero tempo hiccups, missed notes, or lack of synchronization with the backing tracks. As good as Perry and Gaz are, they're not that robotic. This isn't to knock Rob or Pendulum at all. They're one of my favorite bands of all time, and this is an incredibly well-done cover (and, to me, considerably better than the original). But it doesn't sound like them live. In the defense of the video, nothing ever says that it is live.

​@@srsbsns7673let me explain. This is basically a live recoeded video that rob mixed and produced properly after it was recorded. Then it got posted after all the production work was done. Basically this is not mimed or played back

​@@srsbsns7673 It's should be blatantly obvious to any musician, producer, or mixing engineer that you're 100% right, but some people still feel the need to indulge in copium and argue with the facts I guess

😂

not the pendulussy! Lmao

Pendulussy 😭

love me some pendulussy

Pendulussy is crazy😭

Probably on the Spotify account of triple j

Yeah but not from Pendulum. Triple J update their apple music and Spotify like a version playlists when new releases come. They'll eventually sell this on a like a version album too that can be bought at any media outlet like JBHIFI

You think this Triple J could hook me up with Pendulum's cover of The Catalyst?

There's a cover of Blank Space by I Prevail that you might appreciate

@@mirri.mirri.on.the.wall. I'll definitely check it out. Thanks

My thoughts exactly

Apart from the 'sexy baby' bit, obviously 😀

@@tmb8807 He always feels like a sexy baby hahaha the face he makes when he sings those lyrics lol

She hasn’t written a single one of her songs in her 15 year career lol She has a team write everything for her it’s pathetic 🤣

@@Cammo199 not a swifty by any means but all it takes is a 3 second Google search to verify how wrong you are, lol

@@Cammo199 What a ridiculous statement. You can dislike her for any number of reasons, but this is just factually false. She's a PROLIFIC songwriter, hailed almost universally as one of the greats.

i absolutely hate swifties but yes we need this on spotify ASAPPP

It's on Spotify now!

Oh Pendulum make a lot of music in this style.

On behalf of the Swifties... yeah that's fair.

I second that. Water has been turned into wine 👌

Exactly! 🖤

The Swemos are fine with this

If you like this try the Pendulum cover of Linkin Park's The Catalyst

They've got quite a number of Albums with a good a range of drum and bass styles

Water color is amaaaazing

​​@@jr.c.4250I second this, Watercolour is insanely good

What!?! Where have you been the last 20 years!? Well... on a positive spin, welcome to the fucking world of pendulum! They're sick!

Bruh

What about those of us who don't keep to just one box of music and like both Taylor Swift and Pendulum?

@@jgrayson839You tell me. What was it like experiencing the cross-over?

Comes out on Spotify today!

​@@ragingstorm79Perfect, thank you! 🎉

Indeed, his background vocals in Rihanna's Rude Boy went quintuple platinum lol

Me and my teenagers set our alarms to listen to jjj early this morning. We took them to their firstPendulum concert last Thurs in Brissy.... they are converted dnb bunnies now!!

It's been released as a single!

@@TheEnviious SWEET!!!
