That's exactly what Detroit duo Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr. does so well with this live performance in Sólheimar, Iceland. For those who haven't heard the original version of this tune, it is heavy with bass guitar, a drum machine, acoustic guitar, and synthesizers. However, in this seemingly impromptu live version they perform sans mics, using only a grand piano, organ, and the acoustics of a sun-lit wooden-walled church to fill the void of minimal musical accompaniment. Joshua Epstein (organ) and Daniel Zott's (piano) soaring harmonies are spot-on. The result, reminiscent of The Beatles, is a somewhat chilling and stirring version of an otherwise chilled-out synth-ridden song.
Nothing but Our Love - Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr.
Man a lot different than their studio version. I think listening to the original first would be good before listening to this version.
