  • the only reason I clicked this was because it said at the drive in in the title

  • I'm sorry I even clicked on this.

    I just gave them another view they don't deserve.

    Now I need to go watch Invalid Litter Dept. a thousand times just to make up for it.

  • oh i forgot to say this. Let's all remember they are a young and inexperienced band. at this time they've only been touring for what two or three years? if it was in 07 then yeah like two years. So please cut them a little slack guys jesus crist -_-'

  • i don't really like mainstream, and yes i know paramore is sort of mainstream, but they sort of touched my heart. i admire their hard work and their lyrics. I know they aren't amazing at covering ADTI but like honestly they tried okay? that's what counts. it shows that they love the band and i think that's great. they sort of... added a new touch to it. To be honest i'm a real purist, but i'm not hating on them for covering a great song. but i like the one armed scissor one better.

  • The fact that this crappy band has even heard of at the drive in shocks me

  • Don't like the band just watched the video to check out the atdi part.

  • OR YOU COULD ALL SHUT THE FUCK UP AND IF YOU DON'T HAVE ANYTHING NICE TO SAY DON'T SAY IT AT ALL.

  • Damn They fucking suck

  • completely butchered atdi... wow

  • this is cool and it shows that paramore has more depth thn people think i have always liked them and it makes me respect them more.... ATDI is one of the most underrated bands ever!!

  • whatever this might make some emo kid go out and discover atdi

  • @randymarsh151 lol...since when is atd-i emo...

  • teenage romance is a very weak concept compared to more than half thousand women being raped and murdered what silly combination.

  • @alexfatt FYI cedric hates fans like you loosen up .

  • teenage romance is a very weak concept compared to more than half a thousand women being raped and murdered what silly combination.

  • @alexfatt im pretty sure one armed scissor is about suicide

  • the only thing that bothers me is mixing lyrics of a song about woman slaughtered in Mexico with lyrics about teenage romance, but other than that, I highly doubt Cedric, Jim, and Omar would be petty enough to get upset over a few borrowed lyrics

  • @BrockSampson true

  • paramore, fucking bastards

  • no energy

  • Touche jbp6892 good call mayng.

    The difference is ATD-I were a true punk band who went about it in true fashion.

    Now I'm not saying that the musicians in Paramore aren't decent musicians technically.

    It's more the fact that because they are a studio sounding, 'professional', rehearsed sync-'moshing' band purely for a contrived business selling sake, that in my books, deems them not worthy to cover such a song by such a band.

  • Serious guys.. do not kill the music!!

  • is it me, or do they play the same thing for the Invalid Litter Dept and for the One Armed Scissor cover? lol hmm interesting. I'm not gonna bash Paramore, if you like em cool, I don;t have anything against them except that they "covered" two of ATD-I's songs and gave them no recognition

  • @jmka4l see i like you! hahah bc you're just being honest. paramore is my favorite band, personally but i respect you bc you're right they didn't give them recognition which is wrong... no need for all these ppl to be dissing them

  • What an insult.

  • No Band is so f**ing great that no one can cover them. I'm sure ATDI is flattered that a band any band would want to cover them. And damn if Paramore didn't do an amazing cover, they always do amazing covers. IF I were in a band I wud love to have a band like Paramore cover my music.

  • ATDI flattered? No, they actually want to sue them.

  • hey guys. chill out. seriously. all you ATDI fans it's awesome that yall are fans of them bc they rule. but this is a paramore video. they just did a little cover at the end... don't come on here and talk shit about them, i mean common. in my opinion, they're the best band ever. but that's just me... just saying you can love ATDI more just don't come here dissin paramore

  • this is funny because how pissed cedric would be at this because paramore personifies everything he was against

  • it doesnt piss me off that they threw in some atdi lyrics; if anything it shows just how influential and original they were. LOL it sounds like fucking disney channel this emo pop bullshit is incomparable to the MUSICIANS of at the drive-in. the drummer is boring as shit, the guitar is aight and the chameleon haired girl..step it up.

  • this is amazing and all the real paramore fans know these are ATDI lyrics... no need to worry! i love that they added it actually. paramore's the best band in this entire world and they could add barney lyrics to their songs and it would sound amazing

  • Barney Lyric= Fail. Best Band ever= fail, though they are a great band. it make me happy to see a small tribute to one of the greatest bands of the last decade incorporated in one of there songs.

  • it's just my opinion that they're the best band ever! but i do love this cover and i looove ATDI too!

  • If you think Paramore is "the best band in this entire world" maybe you haven't listened to enough music. I don't mean to attack you or anything, and I know many people have different likings and opinions, but I must say there is so much better and original music out there than this.

  • @ibette yeah i know. i'm not trying to attack you either... ATDI rules and you are totally entitled to your opinion. paramore being the best band in the world is just my opinion. but i love lots of other bands too :)

  • but your opinion sucks and i'm here to troll it. this band is NOT GOOD. if paramore is the greatest band in teh world, then why do they have to use lyrics by ATDI and not give them recognition or anything like that.

  • @massacre11 well then why the fuck are you on this damn video if you don't like paramore?! shit. i don't understand what's so hard. if you don't like it, don't watch it. i could care fuckin less what you think about paramore i know they're the best so idc what you think to be quite honest... stop watchin the video, if you don't like it

  • im a long term paramore fan. ever since i played ultimate band on Wii. weird way to become a fan though....

  • this is so annoying they just play the same lame music and just put atdi lyrics over it...its cool if they like atdi but jesus cmon if youre going to cover it than cover it dont just sing the lyrics over some wack music

  • I love Paramore .. They Great!

  • paramore sucks!

  • i like hayley's shirt! and i thought the ending sounded cool. i dont see how people can say they butchered the song :(

  • It's not that they butchered the song, it's just At The Drive-In are one of those bands who are on such a high pedestal within the punk scene (with good reason, too) that a more commercial band covering a song of theirs seems tacky/pisses ATD-I fans off. Not a lot of ATD-I fans would be Paramore fans, different worlds entirely.

  • well i dont really care. its not like they covered the whole song. and maybe THEY are fans of ATDI i mean they obviously arent trying to do better then the actual band! that would be tacky.

    they're just having fun and putting on a good show. i have a friend that's an ATDI fan and he went to a paramore concert in which they played this song and he said it was really cool and fun and it didnt piss him off.

  • hey, im just saying what the ATDI fans think. im an atdi fan and not a paramore fan, but it doesnt piss me off, just trying to tell it from others point of view

  • oh ok thanks :) and i understand, just giving my opinion :]

  • I agree with Sup, it's like Kanye West covering The Beatles. You don't do that. While Paramore is successful in their own genre it doesn't compare to what ATDI was and achieved. ATDI was political, raw, and played songs as tribute to friends who died. While Paramore sings to little tweens about missing their bf, and how it sucks for your crush to not like you back. Big deal. Hopefully, as Paramore audiences mature, they can appreciate what ATDI solely was and what they represented, a struggle.

  • Did you know that Paramore's song "Brighter" was about a close friend of theirs that died? Now, I could go on with a list of what this Paramore song means and blah blah blah, but I'm not. I have listened to ATDI, and yes, they are very good. However, Paramore has an extremely special place in my heart, and I'm glad that they respected this band by covering two of their songs. Now, I'm 19 (maturing), and still Paramore are applicable to my life and represent different struggles.

  • Power to you if you like Paramore, but I don't think butchering a few lyrics from one of the greatest bands from the 1990s and adding them to the end of your song constitutes a "cover."

  • God...why. Why did they have to do this?

  • to do what ?

  • oh my ... god

    i agree with you now i saw the video entirely

    but WHY ?

    this is just .... terrible

  • cheeck oout my paramore songs (:

    let me know what yall think!!

    peace.love.

  • Invalid Litter Dept....Why did they do this..It was such a beautiful song..

  • puked in my mouth

  • id bang this broad silly

  • they covered it good i thought and omar doesnt like u jpb 6892 u 17 year old puunnnkk

  • wow, I know nobody can recreate atd-i perfectly, but these guys slaughtered them. Somewhere, Omar hangs his afro in shame.

  • @jpb6892 you have to be being sarcastic because if you are not your retarded and so are the 7 paramore junkies that liked your comment

  • @jpb6892 FYI cedric hates fans like you loosen up .

  • i don't undersand why everyone cares so much.

    they covered it and is it really worth your time complaining about if you liked it or not when 246827 people already have there opinions stated. you either have a "go paramore" or a "fuck paramore" for this and its already been stated mulitple times by other people.

  • You need to learn good music. Right fcking now.. RIGHT FCKING NOW STOP LISTENING TO PARAMORE FIND OUT WHO At the Drive in is. OMFG

  • any suggestions on at the drive in's songs? what should i listen to?

  • One Armed Solo.

    Pattern Against User.

    Napoleon's Solo.

    Rolodex Propaganda.

    Arcarsenal.

    Everything by them is great. Relationship of Command and In-casino-out are two great albums. I prefer Relationship of Command.

  • thanks alot! :)

  • in/casino/out. THE END.

  • I can't believe this, how can this band cover such an amazing song like Invalid Litter Dept.? I mean... It's At The Drive-In!! first was Sunny Day Real Estate (a great band too), now At The Drive-In. What comes next? Nirvana? Fuck.

  • paramore covering At the Drive-in? Now I've seen it all....

  • i love this ending

  • i don't really like the song but i don't know what to think about putting invalid at the end. 75% percent of me is like this doesn't seem right but 25% of me is like it's kinda cool

  • As much as I love both Paramore and ATDI, I don't think anyone there will know who ATDI is...

  • My only problem with it is, they are trying to put ATDI's song into the context of their own music. Unfortunately, most of the people watching them play wouldn't know who ATDI is, so it kind of defeats the purpose of playing a bit of one of their songs as tribute.

  • One Armed Scissor is the closest thing to a "smells like teen spirit" song ATDI ever had, it's an amazing song but not their finest and these guys are cute and poppy, if they wanna pay homage why bitch about it??

  • first off, this is not One Armed Scissor, its Invalid Litter Dept, and second, ATD-I is nothing like Nirvana in any way whatsoever.

  • actually they are kinda like nirvana cause they cared about the music, they didn't do it to be cool, and they put a lot of energy into it

  • Your bitching and moaning are making me ashamed to call myself an At the Drive-In fan.

  • Listen, Paramore may never be able to blow our minds aways w/ this ATDI cover of theirs, but that's why it's called a COVER!

    It is a person showing respect for another band and their music in their own way.

    In that sense I would hope that the rest of you are able to give them that shred of respect for this cover.

    And if you don't agree with me that's totally fine.

  • My feelings exactly.

  • To cover One Armed Scissor is one thing, but to cover Invalid Litter Dept. is another. They distort the meaning of the song, I used to have Paramore's respect until I heard they were covering ATDI, They will never be able to live up to Cedric, Jim, Paul, Omar, and Tony

  • on my way

    nails broke and fell

    into the

    wishing well, wishing well

    wishing well, wishing well

  • that sucks...

  • Funny, i'm sure most of the people in that audience (9 year old emo girls who act like they've had a hard life but probably live a very comforable one) do not have a clue who ATDI are

  • SHE SANG WHAT?!?!?!

  • i dont understand the 'drive in' and the one-armed-sissor..whats that?:/

  • at the drive in: a band.

    one armed sissor: song of that band.

  • the last fucking time this in INVALID LITTER DEPT.!!!

  • this shit is 2 poppy

  • the other version they did was better i'm a fan and i don't even like this

  • eeew

  • Dear new bands whose image is far superior to their music...

    If you cannot cover the entire song properly...DON'T Cover it...

    ATDI = legend

    Paramore = flash in the pan

  • i second that!

    fucking parrot looking bitch killed it!

    i have to listen to ATDI to make things right to my ears again!

  • Oh my...Totally destroyed this...You fucking bastards. Do what you know, please. End.

  • WHAT THE HELL IS THIS GARBAGE?!?!?!?! This band has absolutly NO right to try and re-create a masterpeice such as Invalid.

  • i like paramore but seriously?! they changed the arrangement and everything...

  • This is disgusting...

  • well, sorry for not knowing but, paramore is better, thats my opinion and i have the right to express it.

  • YOU DONT KNOW MUSIC .they didnt even do have the parts of the song

  • Your an incompetent moron, go listen to paramore, leave at the drive-in as it is you cant say shit about them because youve never even heard them before so go listen to your paramore and panic at the disco.

    "better then the original" how funny nothing can beat ATDI.

    Fuck Paramore.

  • Never compare ATD-I to Paramore. At The Drive-In blows them out of the water and Paramore did not do this song any justice. The only played 30 seconds of it and it sounded like shit. The ruined this song as well as One Armed Scissor.

    Second of all - Your name is crushcrushcrush, which means you signed up after Riot!, which was a shit album. Maybe 5 songs off AWKIF are decent.

    So once again, you must be inbred for believing Paramore > ATD-I. You may have an opinion, but it's a retarded one.

  • fag Fuse fan is fagging

  • dude. i LOVE paramore and i Love ATDI but uhm paramore did not do ILD honor seriously and NEVER say that THIS is better then the original it totally isnt go hear the original sometimes it might do you good ;)

  • Not a song for a female singer to cover.

  • no they didn't!!!

  • WTF ? They Completely Ruined The Song . ATDI Deserves Honor , Not Shit .

    MARS VOLTA AND AT THE DRIVE-IN FOREVER .

  • just Cause a band makes a shitty song, and splices in a great song for the last 30 secs, doesnt make the the performance great. go balls out and cover the hole thing at least, they suck for doing it and, you suck for putting it up.

  • why is emo even in existence

    if emo really mattered then everything would be emo

    fuck emo its called music you dumbasses

    btw i only came here to see the atdi cover

    i dont even know shit about whoever paramore is

  • Too bad emo doesn't stand for "emotional".

    You shouldn't cover this song if you aren't from el paso. It's an unwritten rule.

  • yes paramore fans those lyrics where from a song written by "at the drive-in" go check em out now! right now!!..........u still reading i said now!!

  • For the record...I'm not trying to diss Paramore here...but seriously...stick with One Armed Scissor outros or something...I mean I play ILD. myself from time to time by myself, but I mean...come on...if Paramore wants to cover ILD. they better completely change the pace, lighting, pretty much everything when they start up that song...

    I mean atleast Paramore likes ATDI or whatever...but...well it does little good, when your fans will never know "their routes" or whatever, but, hey! you do...

  • agreed. ILD is a sad song :(

  • Holy crap...

    The only good thing that can come from this video, is I can tell all my friends who are into Paramore who don't like ATDI, that even their fave band acknowledges the greatness of ATDI...even if it has scarred me. I mean ILD. is one of those ATDI songs that bands shouln't cover in anyway live unless they live in El Paso themselves or something...last two minutes of ILD. never ceases to give me goosebumps...this well, gives me goosebumps...but differently...

  • Invalid Litter Dept. should never be capitalized or covered into a pop song or by a pop/punk band.  If you know the song's subject, then you know what i'm talking about.

  • Yep it's a delicate matter

  • i hate paramore, i hate female vocals, and i deinatley dont like paramore covering Atdi it make me sick. if a guy with a shitty voice were to cover her (she is a bad vocalist to begin with) she would be fairly angry

  • like you could do any better..

    and dont say you can..bc i know you

    cant beat hayley at anythingg.

  • yes I can

    fucking parawhore

  • It'd be better if they didn't cover songs that their little pop fans would never understand.

  • Its from Invalid Litter Dept. Good for her for trying but I doubt any of the little kids at this bands show know that Every band sounds like this now wack

  • wait wtf that was one armed scissor

    aw shit they made it a pop puck emo song

    dammit

    at the drive in is raw

    paramore is for teh $

  • atdi are emo...

  • any music that matters can be EMOtional

    but stuff like paramore is considered pop punk emo. It's fake emotional music

  • Christ...calm down boys n girls,this isnt even a cover. lead singer is using some of the word at the very end of the song from invalid litter dept showing what a big fan she is of the former at the drive-in.I think that if more bands do it,we might have a chance of pissing them off into a reunion. also the song wos filmed on a piece o shit cam..destined to sound bad.

  • LOL.... pissing them off into a reunion...

  • did they think o if we cant ruin OAS they would do it another master peice

  • you thought wrong

  • haha *hight five*

  • THAT WAS TERRIBLE. PARAMORE DESERVES TO DIE FOR THAT, EXCEPT THE SINGER BECAUSE SHES HOT. That was just about the worst cover I've ever heard, they dont deserve to have ever heard of at the drive-in, let alone try to cover them.

  • HA HA HA! sooo true^

  • wtf it's not called wishing well, it's invalid litter dept. paramore being the media whores that they are, i'm pretty sure cedric would be disgusted by this (as well as ever other atd-i fan who has commented on this ^_^) in short, URGH, i'm off to throw up now thx

  • hahaha paramore fails yet again.

    fuck Paramore, ATD-I 4ever!!!

    redhed = ripoff. go back to Z100

  • freak. im not into cursing. but i dont like u, so im gonna change my mind.

    asshole. motherfucker.

    that was fun.

  • :P

    feel better yet? i hasnt changed me mind.

    paramore is still spawn of z100. and yeah,

    im an an asshole, but i seem to have better taste than thee oh listener of garbage.

  • LMAO! and why do they use the same "riff" or two high pitched notes for the one armed scissor part and the invalid litter dpt part? XD

  • yeah they arent covering they are integrating atdi songs in theres to make it sound like they came up with it. and they fail!

    ATDI All Day Every Day!

    Paramore FTL

    Redhead FTW!

  • Invalid Litter Dept. is supposed to be a morbid song... they pop it up. And it disgusts me.

  • why would they do that?

    seeing this cover makes me sad.

  • This shit is horrible. I just threw up in my mouth a little.

  • no shit-it was on related videos??

  • I wish bands would stop trying to cover atdi no one can do it right. No matter how hard you try its not atdi just give up

  • 1st off, they aren't trying to cover ATDI (a cover is the full song; they are just adding a small section of it to theirs). 2nd, nothing is wrong with a cover. Of course covers are not better than the original (unless with those rare few). What's the use of making it sound the exact same (go listen to the original if you want that)? I like each band's own touch to it. Covers keep songs alive & are like a tribute. I think of them as admirable things, not "horrible & nothing like the original".

  • Did i say it was horrible? Im a fan of Paramore and i respect them for covering such a good band and not a shitty one. i like when bands cover other bands and put their own twist on things but not at the drive-in especially when its not a very good sounding cover.

    Sorry

  • Shitty band doing a shitty cover of a good song...WOOOO

  • i hope everyone in this band dies

  • i think i died a little on the inside

  • definitely could have been more feeling.

  • that was just awful...just awful

  • I just don't get it..

    Why cover the song when you make it sound like it has no meaning?

    I mean Cedric COMPLETELY makes this song worth listening to.

    He has feeling to the song..

    Covering one of my favorite songs like this, makes me sad in a way.

  • now thousands of teenage girls can pretend to be hip by knowing ATDI. blarg.

  • paramore's amazing and i've been a fan forever..but personally i don't like this ending..the one armed scissor ending better C:

  • Wow, i'm sorry to paramore fans, but this cover is bullshit. if you ever heard the original song you'd get it.

    Haileys voice, emotion, everything can never match up to cedrics, ever.

  • Oh this is priceless. Everybody's singing along, then... silence.

    "What is she singing about a 'wishing well' for?"

  • its At the Drive-in. the song is called Invalid Letter Dept. They cover AtDi songs at the end of their songs sometimes live. They also do one armed scissor.

    Check At the Drive-in out its good music

  • LOL I know that!

    I was taking the piss. Hence the quotation marks.

    I think Relationship of Command is one of the best albums ever made and Invalid Litter Dept. is my favourite ATD-I song. I came across this video while searching for that, in fact.

    Still, thanks for not being a dick in your reply.

  • This is appalling. I don't have anything against paramore, but give me a fucking break. Why couldn't she just let ATDI die with dignity.

  • so true

    sooo true

  • i think paramore covering ATDI its pretty weird... but cool. ATDI and paramore are both great bands, different but great

  • Dude, I love Paramore...they're basically my favorite band.

    But like everyone else I hate that they covered this song, and did such a cruddy job at it.

    Because the song has meaning and they don't even seem to get that.

    They should acknowledge ATDI in someway...even on there website it says nothing about them under there influences.

  • i wish she'd at least acknowledge that theyre playing atdi songs instead of sticking these verses on the end of their songs like they wrote it.

    even if you like paramore i think youve got to admit that ripping off these songs and not even mentioning atdi as an influence in interviews is kind of arrogant.

  • You're right.

    Do you know the shit I got for P!ATD covering Karma Police?? At least they acknowledged Radiohead.

    I do agree that Paramore should acknowledge ATDI, it would've been the polite thing to do. But it doesn't change my like for them.

    I've been a Hanson fan for 10 years. So in comparison, all these negative Paramore and P!ATD comments are just water off a duck's back.

  • yeah well hayleys a good singer and everything i just think the rest of the band sounds completely generic and overproduced. im a diehard fan of green day so to some extent i know how you feel.

  • ummm ok this really wasnt all that bad but they really should stop leave atdi alone do a fall out boy cover or somthing
