Stayaway (opb. MUNA) - The Nor'easters 

STAYAWAY (opb. MUNA) OUT NOW ON ALL MUSIC STREAMING PLATFORMS! 🤍 Listen here: bit.ly/STAYAWAY_

not to be dramatic but this is life changing

The soloist is staggeringly talented. Her range and breath control are unreal.

the high note??? the belt??? so healthy??? placement queen??? i'm crying???

LIVE?!? THIS WAS LIVE ARE YOU KIDDING ME.

The arrangement is stunning, the choreo is evocative, the soloist is ASTOUNDING - 10/10 no notes

Honestly best a cappella arraingment I’ve ever heard

Possibly my favorite MUNA song and damn, y'all did it justice. Pls don't make us wait three years for a cover from their self-titled album lol

When the video title went stay a way I felt that

Just insane!! The main singer here has such an INCREDIBLE voice. I hope you all never stop making music.

that HIGH NOTE OML

the high notes! the healthy belt! the staging! the blend! the arrangement! INCREDIBLE

Not to be dramatic but this is the best thing I’ve ever heard

How are you guys not like, SUPER FAMOUS?! And Julianna, EXCUSE ME?! I'm so so so lucky to have stumbled upon you guys. Heavenly!

I cannot stop listening to this. 2:09 - 3:05 is just pure heaven on the ears for me

Listened to this back to back 3 times holding back tears. This is the most amazing performance I have seen in my entire life across my 28 year life. It's so dialed in, crisp, choreography is so well done, all of you have so much synergy with each other. This deserves so many millions of views. May you all find the health to do this for as long as you want, and be remembered for it for a hundred years afterward.

Her voice is PEAK and so powerful but clean which is ideal. Watch out world.

I love how you can hear the crowd screaming for you all during the third verse and the belting. Bravo Nor'easters I will always stream you on spotify

You all should cover more MUNA, both your MUNA songs are top notch

2:33 so cool how you guys have been including that little 'my love' motif into songs for so long, as someone who's been a fan since Equilibrium!

Well damn! I don’t even know this song, hard to imagine the original comes close to this.

Lyrics 0:00 “Stayaway” by MUNA [Verse 1] If I see my old friends, we'll go out dancing If we go out dancing, then we’ll go to the bar If we go to the bar, then there's gonna be drinking If I drink, I wanna see where you are So I don't see my old friends, I don’t go dancing I don't do most things I used to do Actually, now that I'm thinking about it I did most things to get to you [Chorus] No one ever told me leaving was the easy part I gotta stay away Leaving you was easy, now I gotta do what's hard I gotta stay away [Post-Chorus] Away I gotta stay away [Verse 2] If I go driving, then I'll put on music If I put on music, then I'll play your song If I play your song, then I think I'll lose it End up pulled up at the front of your lawn So I don't go driving, no, I just stay in I don’t do most things I used to do ’Cause every moment is a fork in the road And all my roads lead back to you [Chorus] No one ever told me leaving was the easy part I gotta stay away Leaving you was easy, now I gotta do what's hard I gotta stay away [Post-Chorus] Stay away, stay, stay away Stay away, stay, stay away Stay away, stay, stay away Stay away, now I gotta do what’s hard I gotta do, what’s hard [Bridge] If I turn off the light, then I might start thinking If I start thinking, I’ll think of the time when You said that you love me, you said I was perfect You said you were sorry, you said you were selfish If I don't stop it, before I know it All the bad things never happened You never lied or treated me bad and If you did, then you'll wish you hadn't Start believing you were right and I was being too dramatic So I gotta leave the light on for tonight Just so I can stay Away I gotta stay away Stay, away I gotta stay, away Leaving you, was the easy part I gotta stay [Outro] No one ever told me, leaving was the easy part I gotta stay away

Here cause I’m a MUNA fan. HOLY SHIT!

here after the shoutout on gayotic and now will be listening on repeat this is incredible

Brought me to tears. MUNA has been so important to me coming to terms with my identity, especially this song. You did an amazing version of it. My heart is weeping

the type of arrangement and singing that doesn’t let you catch your breath as a listener. this was perfection.

And to think I was gonna skip right over this just because I didn't know the song 😅 so happy I know it now

BACK IN FULL FORCE 😭

The fact I have only just found this is criminal. Breathtaking.

EVERY IDIVIDUAL ON STAGE,,,Thank you so much,,,Goosebumps!

You all guys are SIMPLY EXTRAORDINARY!! 😭💫👏🏻 Julianna's performance is just perfection, a portal to another dimension: OTHERWORDLY 💜🪐💖

GUYSSSS GOOD NEWSSS> THIS SONG IS FINALLY ON SPOTIFYYYYYYYY> THANK YOOUUUUUUUUUU

The number of times I’ve been replaying this…😅

I randomly looked up a cover of Fools by Troye Sivan and found you guys. I watched alll the videos. This one tho......legit brought a tear to my eye its so beautiful. I recently found out about Muna and i love them and this song is so great. I really feel like you guys captured the deep cuts the lyrics convey. The og is just upbeat and poppy enough it isnt really "sad" but this really shows how freakomg hard it can be to stay away from that person you know you shouldn't be around. Amazing! I'd really love to hear Can't stay away from The Veronicas as a counter to this song. Anyway so glad i found you guys

The arrangement, the soloist, the emotions and overall performance execution 10/10 ate

We want this on streaming besties

THIS SONG. Grips me. The arrangement and vocal performance takes my breath away. LOVE THIS.

this incredible, noreasters really ate with this one

I'm a gay dude, but I'm hella attracted to her right now. those notes, this confidence - damn!

so much talent and story-telling through the music. brings me to tears every time

this is my favorite muna song even and i didn’t think i’d ever get the feeling of hearing this song live back (i’ve seen them twice live) but this made me feel that again and it’s just so beautiful

Muna is one of my favorite bands ever and this is my favorite song of theirs--- this cover is INSANE. Thank you for doing this song justice

This is phenomenal. One of my favorite songs ever and y’all captured the emotions beautifully in your arrangement.

A testament to how great MUNA songwriting is. A Capella groups chose great songs.

I love her voice

This is one of my favorite songs by one of my favorite bands and y'all absolutely KILLED it. Listening to this for the 3rd time in a row.

The best acapella arrangement I have ever seen in all the years.

JULESSSSSSS OH GODDDDDD

Everything about this is perfection. I’ve listened to this like 20+ times in the past 2 days. Their blend, the soloist, the vocal percussion, everything is just pure musical bliss

Spotify recommended me this and wowwww they are so good frrrrrrr

The sound is so full. My ears loved it so much

This may very well be perfect.

Y’all never cease to amaze me with the vocals, the arrangements, and the emotion in your performances. Literally my favorite acapella group of all time!

that trembling "hard" @ 2:04 is so sad and emotional

Incredible arrangement and performance--the build through the bridge is absolutely stunning!

My favorite song for the last year. Love you guys!

time for me to listen to only this for the rest of the week 😀😀

15 days of streaming this video over and over, and I’m still cussing at you through my screen for how damn amazing this is 😭

I’ve been waiting for this all day and it was well worth the wait 🔥 🔥 (that bridge 💀)

you guys take my breath away. and MUNA's stayaway is just too brilliant.

Fantastic interpretation and performance!

my jaw is so dropped it’s actually detached from my body. this is heaven this is the only version of any song i will ever listen to again

OH my god. CHILLSSSS. that was insane

man. this is just insane.

oh my god that high note???? what a range

UNREAL!!!!

Hearing this version of the song first has utterly ruined any other version I will ever hear. I will be eternally floored by this performance.

I have full body goosebumps. Like I don't understand how something so good exists.

I'm listening on repeat cause this song could easily be about all my favorite places that are changed or closed now.

1 year later and still come back to watch

Reminds me of 2017 - superb

Chills. What a beautiful arrangement and incredible voice. Love it!
