The accent just make everything 100% better.

[demelzaceleste]

my heart melts everytime he looks up ( 0:32 ) he looks like he has such innocence in his eyes.

[MikeBillz]

I love the harmony when they sing, "No!" and the chorus. Beautiful. And the XX incorporation.

[Bunparade]

THEY DIDN'T CHANGE THE GENDER FROM "HE" TO "SHE" I AM SO HAPPY

[missMichellePower]

I think I'm in love with Dan Smith

[freyarichards]

it’s been 7 years and it’s still not on spotify

[iamdevblayze]

Bastille are genius at mashups. No Scrubs by TLC and Angels by The xx? WHAT?! That's insane!

[KaibaGirl]

Bastille can make anything sound profound.

[DaysToSociety]

I love how they incorporated an excerpt from the XX "being as in love with you as I am..."

[riseuplucky]

the guy on the right playing keyboard always looks like he's waiting for someone to attack him. 

also this is awesome

[MilenaCasey]

This is one of my favourite covers of all time. Just stunning.

[Ray]

I remember Bastille had a concert at the concert hall that happened to be right next to my college dorm. Imagine how it feels to be walking home alone in the middle of the night, with Bastille singing the background music to your own coming of age teen movie.

[charchar]

Bastille can literally make any song sound more awesome. even we can't stop by miley cyrus. 

[chinkyroo]

Its been a decade & it’s still not on Spotify or Apple Music but seeing Dan perform this tonight in Tulsa was AMAZING.

[rocksterize]

Ha what a random song to have them cover. But always with Bastille, WOW. Hypnotizing vocals.

[elsewhere]

Theirs just something about the way Bastille sings it that gives it much more depth then when TLC sung it. Both sing it well but there is more layers to this one, I like it.

[johnronia]

They performed this in their concert last night and it was absolutely beautiful.

[libbylou]

I LOVE HIS VOICE WHEN HE SAYS "no"

[UserDude]

"No Scrubs"

A scrub is a guy that thinks he's fly
And is also known as a buster
Always talkin' about what he wants
And just sits on his broke ass
So (no)

I don't want your number (no)
I don't want to give you mine and (no)
I don't want to meet you nowhere (no)
I don't want none of your time and (no)

[Chorus:]
I don't want no scrub
A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me
Hanging out the passenger side
Of his best friend's ride
Trying to holler at me
I don't want no scrub
A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me
Hanging out the passenger side
Of his best friend's ride
Trying to holler at me

But a scrub is checkin' me
But his game is kinda weak
And I know that he cannot approach me
'Cause I'm lookin' like class and he's lookin' like trash
Can't get with a dead-beat ass
So (no)

I don't want your number (no)
I don't want to give you mine and (no)
I don't want to meet you nowhere (no)
I don't want none of your time (no)

[Chorus]

If you don't have a car and you're walking
Oh yes, son, I'm talking to you
If you live at home with your mamma
Oh yes, son, I'm talking to you (baby)
If you have a shorty but you don't show love
Oh yes, son, I'm talking to you
Wanna get with me with no money
Oh no, I don't want, no (oh)

No scrub
No scrub (no, no)
No scrub (no, no, no, no, no)
No scrub (no, no)
No

[Chorus 4x]

One of the most beautiful voices I have ever heard in my life. That song - it still does something to me years later. My admiration for it will never end.
