I haven't logged in for almost a year. Got a comment a long time ago how I didn't know the cure that well since Davey was perfect in this video. I found my original comment on how I said enjoyed both bands and that anyone who knows Robert Smith he doesn't make that many facial expressions and would of said it sucked if it did. I wrote that due to the comments on he wasn't enjoying the show. To that person, I'm sry I didn't make it clear but I love both versions! Also a Cure and AFI fan for life!
@darkhood21 I thought the cover wasn't so bad I mean Davey didn't sound like he was putting enough...emotion into...but it wasn't that bad overall...the guitar was pretty good
ugh uh JUST LIKE HEAVEN. Incomprenhensibly awesome!!! seriously fuck rihanna and lady twat media whore gaga. this is fucking music this is a fucking cover. genuine imagination in creating this and genuine imagination in covering this
okay people i am going to let you on in a little secret of mine: click 2:15, give your full attention to the noise coming out of your speakers for about 25 seconds and you will have your mind blown :D
@LESTAT260190 Overpasses the original? It sounds way too similar to the original to be a successful cover in the first place and Robert Smith is a much better musician than that women-looking wanker.
WoW!!! Hell Yeah!!! F-in Love A Fire Inside!!!! Listening to a lot of AFI, Hey You!, Blink-182, The Offspring, Weezer, Paramore, My Chemical Romance, and No Doubt
Hey You! is still pretty new, but they're waaay dope. Rock/Punk/Pop with a real cool edge. Plus they've got a cute chick singer ;-) ....you should check em out....

I think robert definitely enjoyed it, he's just so old school emo that he has no happy face xD. Love this cover, but I have to say I prefer the original.
@MegaBenji3000 crash love was pretty much a dissappointment. I love AFI but i hav no idea wut happened between DU and CL that made it just not as great...
Davey did good. My favorite cover of this song (Sixpence None The Richer did one, but I was like, "Wow, you really don't have the right soul for this song, do you?" But The Cure is genius and you can't top them. Ever. Robert Smith was probably happy that one band was able to cover it so well, but he might've been a bit pissed, too. I would be.
I remember I saw this on TV and at the time I hated A.F.I but I thought: "Wow, that kicked ass". I still love this song (Both, the original and the cover) and I listen to this band every now and then.
Actually, my hearing is perfectly fine. I was making a comment, which if I'm not mistaken, is what a comment page is for. Just a suggestion...instead of throwing insults and swearing at someone, why don't you try to start a logical conversation about a song?
Sorry...this is awful. Instrumentally it sounds good, but the rest...not so much. On the other hand, I really haven't heard a truly great live version of JLH by The Cure after 2002.
This is lovely. I can't imagine attempting to cover any Cure song -- they're just such an epic, influential band. Props to them for doing this. Of course, it's not the same as The Cure's, but it' s still beautiful.
He SERIOUSLY nailed it. This song by The Cure had always been one of my favorites. AFI did something amazing and wonderful with it. LOVE both of these bands. Davey couldn't have done better.
I cry when I see this. Davey's voice is magical. He looks absolutely divine, like an angel sent from heaven to enlighten us with his voice. AFI Fan for life!
I cry when I hear this song it reminds me of my P4L that you for posting I live the cure and AFI... And if my P4L ever see's this...hi I P4L love and miss you much!!! :) ok done being emo!!!
At earstretching. This is MTV's Icon show from 2004 featuring The Cure with several different artists performing covers of The Cure's greatest hits. This was the second song of the night.
Robert smith sings it better even to ths day but Davy rocked the hell out of it, poured his heart in the words, instrumental was awesome, nice and modern, and is indeed the best cover to this day, that live performance.
Omg! I thought that the lead singer was a chick! So how wrong is that? :) AFI - good job on that cover... But honestly Smith didn't look like he got a woodie watching that. Just saying...
Such a good cover! I've listened to AFI as long as I can remember. It's cool that their style changes along with their music, but I have to say they look a lot more legit nowadays. I want to hear more Dark Sails from them.
@theMighty3 dude. It's alright he's fooled others before, if you check out his torso though, flatter and wider than most female builds and with out the wide hips.
What does AFI mean? A Fucking Insult? Terrible.
