Bastille - Grip (Demo) Lyrics

Honestly this is so much better than that version with Seed

This version should be studio recorded!

in Help Me Chase Those Seconds, at 16:56, you could hear a high quality snippet of the instrumental and if you closely hear it, you could even hear the vocals

I missed a lot this version. The original never dies, sorry

i wish they released this one and not the new one

2:38 just realised that’s will singing

Thanks seeb for butchering this song

much better

I can't believe we all accepted that the lyrics were "into the dark" for three whole years before we were finally corrected

I feel like they changed it in Seeb's version... it was "dark", and got changed

Still waiting for a stripped version of the remix 👀

Me too...I like the new version, but I think I'd perfer a stripped version. Just like I perfer the stripped version of "Happier."

ohmymy they pushed away woody's drums in the seeb's version ;(

I'm really sad that they made a version with seeb. not that it's bad or anything. I just love love love this version and I've been waiting for them to release a studio recording (sans background noise) for forever and now It'll never happen ☹

Have you listened to that version a fan did with a instrumental he made himself? It sounds like the original one

i like this vers more than the seeb one ;;

This version is sooo good 🤭🤭

Wow. I wish someone would upload that to YouTube. I love it so much.

Bastille real stans are here

Can we at least get this version!!!! We waited for 4 years tf

such a better versionnnn

this will always be better than the new version <3

Grip by Bastille is 100x better than Grip by Bastille + Seeb 😕

rest in peace grip <\3

Super super interesting to listen to this version after hearing the one on Other People's Heartaches Pt. 4

SEEB X BASTILLE - GRIP

Other Peoples Heartache PT 4 ;)

Anyone here to compare this masterpiece with the OPH4 version?

here lol

god the new version is shit compared to this i really don't like the new direction bastille is going in :(

they're not going edm, oph is their way to experiment with stuff, happier was supposed to be on there too

Woah what a glow up it had

So crazy how Bastille delayed releasing this song because they wanted to put out their best. Oh how they care

i prefer this version better than the official one

Then, you'll love this :3

Opinions on the new version vs the original??

Who likes this one more?

Way better than the version with Seeb.

@balgreya Yeah not really

@Noah Stronach yes really, but this is about preferences not logic and facts so let's both just think what we want 👍

@balgreya I don't know how anyone could listen to the studio version and genuinely find enjoyment. It literally took an amazing demo and injected massive piles of shit for no reason other than more radio plays. It is one of the worst excuses for music I've heard in a long time. And what makes it worse is that the song seems like it's going to be good, and then the chorus hits and it just melts your brain into mush.

@Noah Stronach well, the simple answer is preferences. You can call it whatever you want but it's not hard to understand why someone would like a song even if you don't. I do agree that the chorus was my least favorite part of Seeb's version but I still enjoy the whole song more than the original. They're both good still so it's whatever. Bastille is just good in general.

@balgreya Bastille is a great band which makes the fact that they released the song so baffling. I love the fact that they collaborate with tonnes of other artists, but this song obviously exists to just capitalise on not only all the Bastille fans that had been waiting for this song for years (including me), but also all the brain-dead radio douchebags that don't know the difference between Nickelback and Radiohead.

Grip is resurrcted guys❤

today is the day!!!!

THEY’RE FINALLY GONNA RELEASE A STUDIO VERSION *YES*

listening to this now after they officially released it with Seeb. we've been waiting so long :')

JUST HEARD IT FUCKIN INCREDIBLE

Back from the dead tomorrow!

this is the first time I've ever heard this song and now I know why people are always asking for it. suuuuper hyped we're about to get it soon!! <3

GRIP IS COMING GUYS!!!!

3 year later... finally

we r finally getting grip:) thanks everyone

grip is coming, we can stop waiting it

OPH4 HYPE LET'S GO

Can’t wait to hear this on OPH4

It’s been crazy over the last 2 years watch people comment on this trying to anticipate when grip will come out 😂 it’s finally happening. We made it

As a remix with seeb 😞

Boudy Zidane I know! Maybe they’ll release an original or stripped version like they did with happier

Chase Meadows that would be like a dream come true 🥰

This is the only version of 'Grip' im gonna listening to. The seeb version is... different :(

Just for the released version to be a complete disappointment

sooooonnnnnnnn

good fucking evening guess which bastille song will finally get the justice she deserves

never mind the version with seeb is meh

...and Control, Secrets, Hours, Bad Taste, Drop It, Look the Other Way (and/or Look Behind You EP; they sound kind of similar), and Two Eyes??
wild

wills voice😍😍😍😍

this song makes me nostalgic for things that never even happened

whY ARE YOU EVERYWHERE

Well fuck I didn't know this existed

"i should call it a day" me waiting for grip to be released

WILL THIS EVER BE RELEASED

They need to make another album With Grip, The decent, Hangin', and maybe Comfort of Strangers

OPHP.4, got everything, except hangin' and overload

haha fuck they did

YOURE IN LUCK BABY

I swear you’re a time traveler ( well in tgooh there’s no og grip but still )

This sounds kinda reminds me of The Giver 🤔 and I love it ❤️ I hope they put it on the lp3 😭

I often come here to listen and cry.

Im still crying

"This song is called GRIP"

Emphasis on the 'P'

they need to release this song

This is literally one of the best Bastille songs and it breaks my lil heart that we don't have a proper version of it

do someone knows a link to a studio recording from grip and final hour???

Sanne Hol sadly, grip hasn't been released on any record or studio, but final hour http://zippyaudio2.com/download/bastille_final-hour/-120939984_sXkKXF

Fallout Master thx!! aah.. that is sad..

Bless you for posting this <3

WHY DO I FUCKING LOVE THIS SONG?

So sad it's still not released

The Mop I know, I hope they put it on the third album

If this isn't on the third album im going to cry

Dan tweeted the lyrics yesterday.. without context🤷🏻‍♀️

Aicha Akermi tomorrow is the Release!! 😍😍

It's gonna be on Other People's Heartache pt. IV
But remixed by Seeb.

Tbh i like this Version better, because it also has a special Place in my Heart.. but The new is good too, but in my opinion Not as good as this one :)

This song reminds me of spring and especially summer. Kings Island, being carefree, traveling, mountains, conceptual photography, wind, woods, forests, rain and sunshine, nightmares, rainbows, raindrops, waterfalls, trees, Pike Lake State Park, happiness, the world... and something very deep. something that draws you in and never loosens its grasp. Im not sure what the feeling is, but it is beautiful and welcoming, yet malicious.

better be on album 3

my favorite.

Wonder will this be on the next album :D

I feel like Snakes is what replaced grip in the new album..

Sam Well Snakes was a very early song so probably not.

i think at the start is says something like "intermittent and continuous, loud and excessive lies wears a man down"
