  • What does AFI mean?  A Fucking Insult? Terrible.

  • Rob must be proud :)

  • 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!

  • I love how Davey just like, stands there waiting for the part where the vocals come in.

  • what is up with Robert's hair!!

  • this was meant for afi to sing!

  • I have to say, that was a pretty god awful cover. I like AFI and all, no offense. But this cover doesn't respect Cure or Robert Smith at all.

  • @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

  • where can i download afi's audio version?

  • Robert Smith doesn't look too happy there! Lol

  • This song is beautiful and AFI's version only makes it that much more amazing.

  • why do people say this is a good cover. they just do the song exactly the same as the cure but with a much more annoying singer.

  • @nikt Its a Great Cover because like you said, Its Basically unchanged. Just a Bit more of a Metal Feel to it and Sped up.

  • 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

  • to alfonsjordankasday---That is maybe one of my top mind blowin lyrical moments also! I Salute You.. :)

  • Wow wow.. well, one of my dreams came true, so far!

  • 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

  • buen cover ejecutado

  • Sucks ass

  • My two fave bands!!!! Xoxo

  • <3 oh how i miss afi its been a while since ive heard this c:

  • wub Dis!!!

  • When was this filmed?

  • Precious footage!

  • their instruments sound the exact same as the cures but their vocals shall never match roberts

  • i love that fuckers n this song jajaja

  • And Robert smith got pissed!!!!!

  • @shlangwan Yep his make up ran.

  • J Mascis shits on this

  • i miss this afi T__T

  • the 2008 live video with the cure was better than this one. they sound very similiar though.

  • What kind of cymbals is Adam playing?

  • I feel that this is one of those few covers that actually overpass the original song, Just Like Heaven is just one the most beautiful songs ever :')

  • @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.

  • Marilyn Monroe t-shirt ftw!

  • 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.

  • Hahaha! Robert Smith looks so pissed!

  • amazing cover of an amazing song.

    just want to say that i love her. she will be loved.

    her name is michelly.

  • you can see Tom DeLonge in the end :D

  • Love this but I like the one by Liz Gillies a tad bit more

  • @Thecrowingz her voice made my eardrums pop

  • I'm a little upset Robert wasn't visibly more into it.

  • @Yourfaceisuploaded

    He has to keep is cool at all times.

  • good thing AFI,

    In my opinion .... CRASH LOVE, is the worst album , i´m right? :D

  • @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...

  • @meverdugo2

    history of AFI :

    PUNK ---- PUNKMETALL ----- EMOPUNK ----- ALTERNATIVE......

    In the past they played Punk...... u liked it?, me too .... good old days right ? =)

  • 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.

  • Im not a fan of AFI, but im not gonna lie, this was a extremely good live performance.

  • 0:02

    Eye spy with my little eye something beginning with MM

  • My favorite part of this video is honestly the first 5 seconds.

  • well, since everyone else is getting thumbs up, how bout some for me ^_^?

  • I honestly don't think anyone could cover a song by The Cure better than these four amazing men. This is wonderful.

  • @TheWonderDisorder dinosaur jr cover sounds terrible i prefer this one

  • Davey Manson and Robert???.... this is JUST LIKE HEAVEN.

  • ugh. so beautiful. check our band out (if only we were like AFI)

  • Davey does this song beautifully!! This video just makes me HAPPY!

  • Hey...That was Manson in the beginning, wasn't it? :)

  • amei a tecladista

  • Not bad for covering such and Amazing song!

  • 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.

  • It was a part of MTV Icon Europe to all the people, even the guy who uploaded the video.

    If you are going to post something; get your information correct.

  • Definitely better than the original. No offense. Along the lines of Johnny Cash's "Hurt." It's up there.

  • the bass player looks like flea lol

  • @vendo89 zombie flea...

  • wth marilyn manson intoduced them wtf?!

    they hate each other.

  • Dinosaur jr make this song better!

  • Pleeeeease the original is so better than this. All AFI is doing is karaoke. It's okay but not as great as the original

  • They got ballz to play that with Smith in the audience. This version is a dim candle compared to the SUPERNOVA that is THE CURE.

  • @HooperWest It was the Cure tribute show.

  • ╭∩╮(︶︿︶)╭∩╮

  • Better Than the Original? Who knows...

    I Will Say that This is Definitely the Best Cover. Fucken A.

  • Cool cover, most definitely.

  • nothing beats original...

  • Hell. The only band that could ever top The Cure.

    This is awesome. :)

  • de todos este es el unico grupo que se rifa el cover

  • I definitely think Dinosaur Jr did a better version.  Just saying

  • i hope davey donated all that gorgeous hair when he cut it. I miss it..haha

  • 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.

  • do a good cover of just like heaven

  • i dont see how that video proves afi are a bunch of drama queen posers i think it just proved they can do a good can

  • Once again proving that AFI is a bunch of drama queen posers...

  • @thecaneater but they look good doing it!

  • cieszę się że to właśnie A.F.I. miało ten zaszczyt i coverowali akurat TEN utwór!

    wyszło na lux! Davey Havok ma super głos...

    a wiele jego piosenek mnie po prostu rozpala do czerwoności ^^

    no i nie mogę zapomnieć o wspaniałym prowadzącym MTVIcon - Mansonie >.< :D

  • cure music's live performances are the best

  • you know you've done a good cover when Robert Smith has applauded it

  • best cover of the song...evar

  • 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!

  • Wow. This is amazing! I can't believe I'd never heard it before.

  • 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!!!

  • Robert Smith dont show no emotion or any indication he likes what he hears..AFI perform this one awesome I reckon..Jade smashes it out nice

  • @3:25 I saw Tom and Travis behind Robert, then Tom is looking to Mark, I guess lol

  • Hahahah Robert Smith is soo cool.

  • 0.0!! I'm not a big AFI fan but they did this song justice I must say.

  • Also, produced by Marilyn Manson. Yes.

  • 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.

  • what concert is this? were? when? i must know!!

  • @earstretching404 MTV ICON: THE CURE....from 2004 or 5 I think

  • Yeah marylin manson!!! Great AFI!!

  • is that marylin manson introducing the song?

  • @MrSeppo2010 hell yeah!!!

  • wow!!!!!

  • Good Job, except the whole...they just sounded almost exactly like Robert thing..

  • @FeelThaWind How do you know that? Robert never really shows much expression...

  • No Robert was like "ah a band that can actually make my music 10x Better!!"

  • @tsohgallik how dare you!

  • @tsohgallik I ask purely out of interest rather than in the hope of getting an articulate response but what are you basing that comment on?

  • I'm most impressed with Jades and Adams performances but Davey and Hunter were also spot on

  • cover isn't bad, they just didn't really make an effort to make it theirs so it's a bit bland.

  • missing the emotion that Robert gives to the song, which is the best part. Either way, it wasnt a bad cover :)

  • lol whos that goth emo introducing AFI?

  • @tsohgallik Marilyn Manson ( one of the best musicians ever )

  • "Show me Show me"

    :D:D:D

  • Haha, Robert looked like he hated it at the end. His clap was totally sarcastic.

    Still, this is my favorite cover of this song.

  • @DillonDisaster I think he's just like that. But its still funny =P

  • puget singing the high notes?

  • @MARMARR1 i dunno jus thought it would be a cool mix of both bands or would you rather have Davey's voice in The Cure's instruments? ^^ just saying

  • Someone should make a mix that has Robert Smith's voice in AFI's Instruments xP

  • Marilyn Manson is a freak :L

  • @leeperryismerry go die

  • @BillyHguitar

    that's not very Christian

  • @leeperryismerry lol i dont care, marilyn manson is awesome!

  • @BillyHguitar

    a Self confessed Satonist who hates Christians, Any way who am I to judge

  • @leeperryismerry You clearly know very little about him.

  • I LOVE the Cure... but I almost like this version better.

  • Comment removed

  • i was 15 when i first saw this vid. it had around 90k views. almost 3 years have passed. :))

  • i will forever lovee this song

    <3

  • Comment removed

  • 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.

  • Robert Smith is jelous!

  • way better than i thought afi would be live

    golf clap*

  • I swear, I watch this video at least once a day.

  • damn but i miss that hair :(

  • I'm not a huge AFI fan, but this was an AMAZING cover!

  • 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...

  • Strange as Angels, (just like a dream).

    

  • 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.

  • is that singer a guy or a girl?...serious question...

    no offense..no critisism..just a normal question :]

  • @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.

  • Oh my god thats a guy? I thought it was Cher...

  • The announcer sounds like Jerry Seinfeld. :)

  • @rslynch2 Who, Marylin Manson?

  • Comment removed

  • Every time I watch this I want to fuck the last breathe out of Davey Havok's body.

  • never heard of AFI.....this was pretty sweet

  • Mejor que la original. Es mi humilde opinion asi q jodanse. :D

  • No point sounding like than might as well listen to the originals ! AFI can do better than this ! I love The Cure for 33 years now !

  • Placebo does better covers for The Cure !

  • Oh. Now my cooch is moist.

  • @xpinnedxdownxsolox lol wow. TMI, but I guess thats a nice comment to davey:D

  • O my God...

    Davey is really good ....very good....

    He.s hendsome, telented and sexy....

  • So beautifully done. Smith's expressions are priceless. He seems quite moved to me.

  • That´s what I call A.F.I.ne performance jajajajaja

    a very good cover!

  • Davey looks so pretty

  • robbie looks so effing pissed.

  • davey havok is a babe. And I'm straight xD

  • @MightyLittleMan000

    hahahhahah true true

    same here

  • I like this version better than the Cure original

  • I'd probably take Robert's vocals over Davy's but this guitar tone is fucking bad ass.

  • I've loved the Cure for a very long time. Having said that, this is one of the absolute best covers of any song I've ever heard.

    I think I've listened to it about 30 times now.

  • @80sjamming dude the guitar in this song is mesmerizing

  • Holy Shit! AFI did fucking awesome on this cover! I love Afi & The Cure.

  • Davey Havoc is slowly morphing into Amy Winehouse.

  • i love robert's face through the video

  • Wow this is actually really good bravo AFI bravo

  • words can't describe how much i love this cover.

    afi will always be one of my favorite bands no matter how they look.

    their sound will always be gold to my ears.

    all members did amazing on this song.

    ***** (5 stars)

  • god.. i miss that hair

  • Robert Smith at 1:38
