  • Super great song, Davey Havok so much energy, pure genious talent, it such an adrenaline rush. A.F.I.

  • I WOULD PAY $500 to be there. This particular song holds special meaning in my heart. And seeing it live would be life-changing for me.

  • Poor quality

  • the moment i found this video, i totally loved it! in fact, i wanted to be davey havok for halloween this year but i could never figure out how to look like him until i saw this, so now, this year for halloween im gunna look basically like he did in that video <3 <3 <3 <3 ITS GUNNA B AWSUUUUM!!!!

  • best and favourite afi song

  • i still have not seen AFI live, and i don't think i'll ever want to unless they play this song and Wester. They are undoubtedly their greatest songs ever.

  • Such a night time instrumental. Beauty. Elegance. Late night, 3am, 94 degrees fahrenheit, cool breeze, a little celluloid dream...

  • Why is this the only live video in existence? How do they still not perform this song? LISTEN TO THAT FUCKING CROWD!

  • If you don't know the lyrics to this song, fuck you.

    The're amazing.

  • @rafaelxsilence2

    Dude if all of AFI's lyrics were made into a religious scripture, then I would be like the fuckin pope cause i know them all......but i agree with you 100%

  • Fucking crazzyyy... I LIKE

  • My most favorite AFI song.

  • omg the crowd! <3

  • Halifax, NS, Canada. Please!

  • @mattjmd i'm also from halifax and we've been waiting far too long for AFI. hell i've been waiting about 13 years now.

  • Oh, so so so so excellent

  • I wanna see this live so bad! 5 AFI shows and not once! Oh well!!! Many more times to catch it!!! <3 these guys.

  • Why don't they perform this??? I love it <3

  • haha he trips at 0:38 

  • its cool how he sings ''oh'' in most of his songs

  • Underrated song

  • that karate kick was intense...license to ka-ra-te

  • idk if afi is punk but i think they are and they actually make good punk music alot of punk or punk rock is extremely simple bullshit music. fucking good song. sing the sorrow is a good album.

  • This song is amazing and THEY DON'T EVER PERFORM IT ANYMORE! :(

  • they really rushed...lol. my fav song! (chorus, prechorus, and bridge are AMAZING! verses aren't as good as other songs by them, but still great.)

  • I miss it when davey used to scream more :(

  • I miss this energy. I realized what was missing from their show only a few months ago in 2009 and it was the fact that Davey didn't jump or spin once.

    Sigh.

    Sadness.

  • @starlitninja just must of been a bad night because the last AFI concert i went to davey was like all over the place.. did u go while he was rlly sick??

  • @fresh098 I hope so. It made me drift away from being a superfan to just a regular fan if that makes any sense. I mean really though, just seeing clips from live shows displays how much Davey has changed as a performer and there is a drastic energy change from 2003 to 2006 to nowadays. People get older and thats what happens but it still sucks.

  • @starlitninja prob was cuz on a live video from vh1 and mtv. it shows davey doing the god walk (well attempting cuz the audience was pretty lame).. how was the crowd at the show.. if they arnt into davey usualy isn't i mean if ppl are chanting through our bleeding we are one, or misearra cantare the beginning he usualy gets into it..

  • @fresh098 i call it as i see it and you don't have to agree with me. I've been to three AFI shows over the years and I noticed a drastic change in both the crowd and the performance and that's all there is to it.

  • @starlitninja ah im just saying if the audience or crowd is lame, davey wont get into it... and usualy when the audience are a lot of ppl drinking he wont go out of his way to make it epic.. most concerts this year have been awesome him doing god walk or other thiings except for 2 this year when he was rlly sick

  • i cried when i saw this vid. he is just so energetic and their sound is so different then now. i like all of it but this takes me back to when i was just listening to this and i still worship davey havok. I LOVE U DAVEY!

  • So

    Much

    Energy!!!!

    AFI rocks \m/

  • love his attire, its like a 20th century Vampire, cant help but to admire, and very good performance as always by AFI

  • iv seen some shit in my time, but this takes the fox's biscuit

  • They really should have made a music video to this.

  • I dont understand how anybody can not like this song. The chorus alone is so powerful.

  • It's my favorite on the album besides This Time Imperfect, I only wish they'd still play it live.

  • incredible

  • so much energy!!

    faster than the album version

    from this performance it sounds like it could have been on the art of drowning

    that's mostly because the meat of STS and AOD are almost identical

    with songs like this compared to sacrifice

    STS was just better produced,cleaner

  • its funny jade is always ALL over the place lol

  • they should play this song more often its the bestest song ever

  • I'm digging those pants :)

  • crazy to think that this was over 6 years ago, feels like yesterday when STS first came out.

  • win for the crowd for saying the opening ''oh!'' and on cue

  • yeah but they didn't say as well as he does.

    it wasn't feminine enough

  • @canesrule96 Even more win when you consider that the song had only been out for three months. And that it's not even a single.

  • oh.. I miss that Davey with long hair but he looks great now also, and this song its wonderfull

  • Comment removed

  • they hardly play this song

  • I hope they will play this one again in the upcoming tour, this is one of my favorite AFI´s, Awsome performance, thanks for uploading

  • Why don't they play this more often? why? why? why?

  • really love this song

  • original speed rocks more, this a bit too fast :(

    But no matter :D this song is awesome

  • Davey makes me smile.

  • Heh I miss the old AFI.

    And I mean even before Sing the Sorrow, which IMO was already a little mellowed/emoish. They used to rock so much \m/

  • is it just me or did it seem like this was way faster than usual?

  • OMG his kicks are so SEXY!!!

  • enormous voice

  • Unfortunately, or fortunately, David wouldn't know, as he, and most of us Despair Faction.....eers.....are all straight edge.

    Our music might be amazing and "trippy"....yet not because of a poisoning of our minds or bodies...but a refusal to poison, and cheapen, our souls.

    I know, that's such bullshit.

    Rather, we appreciate our art better when we're sober.

    That is why we wouldn't recognize the referral to lsd.

  • wow ...i wish i could see them live!!!

    LOL davey tripped on the chord

  • LMAo in the first verse Davey trips over the mic. cord. LMAOOOO I love it.

  • Lol, noticed that to

  • i luv this song i wish they put it as a part of their setlist nowadays!

  • Wow almost reminiscent of Ian Astbury in the old days lol

    I LOVE AFI!! :D!!

  • his voice is so amazzin....old AFI is def the best though.....

  • i like Daveys dancing at the begining

  • amazing <3

  • i wish i coud've seen em in the sing the sorrow days =/

  • A singer that sounds EXACTLY the same on album as live?? WTF?!?!

  • true say

  • No, it's a bit faster. And his name is Davey :| He's just amazing.

  • Born David Passaro, his mother named Marchand (making him David Marchand, now his given name) and now he's Davey Havok, or Havock.

    And he IS amazing. He's currently my favorite male artist.

  • His mother MARRIED Marchand.... I'm sorry, I meant "married a man named Marchand".

    Havoc/k was an acquired stage name. Same as A Fire Inside was an acquired name for the letters AFI...which previously ( over twelve years ago) had so many names you couldn't shake a stick.... Commonly names of songs that never made recordings.

    Anyway, I'm sorry I said Named instead of Married. Meh bad yo.

  • that just says he's doesnt need affects on his voice bcoz he has an amzing talent

  • Now he is amazing and extremely talented but some times I can tell he uses echo effects on some songs.

  • yeah...maybe its just the room though?

  • Could be but listen to Miss Murder Live then studio I mean the vocals sound a little odd.

  • haha echo effects? every artist uses reverb and delay and are not in the least bit ashamed to admit it. It represents the sound as it would if he was singing acapella in a hall.

  • I just don't remeber Davey saying hey i use reverb on my track.

  • it goes without saying

  • fair enough I guess its just me then.

  • Mhmm.

  • i miss the pleather pants!!!

  • so,is this the only time they've played this song live?>

  • I want some pleather pants like Davey, those kick-ass :P

  • correction davey never uses leather he is against it, they are vinyl

  • I never said leather, I said pleather, a vegan alternative to leather. I am aware Davey Havok is aganist leather and is a vegan, infact I know because I am also a vegan.

    ~Ishara Of-The-Rosebushes.

  • Amen.

    "I" am not a vegan. Vegetarian, sure as turkey shit is greased (I've never understood the phrase, I just find it amusing) on the highway. But vegan...?.....?

    Nope. Need eggs and cheese, sorry.

    Though I sure respect a vegan....all of the extra vitamins (pronounced, by a foreigner such as I, "vit" "a" "mins". Yeah, just as spelled...but it makes sense to me....vit....ahh....minz...) required are a task. I respect that. You hurt yourself for others...when pretty, and an artist....can't argue.

  • how come they dont play cool shit like this when i go to see them...

  • Awesome!

  • That is not even close to funny. If you dont like this video dont comment on it! Gosh, I cant stand people like you!

  • stop being so narrowminded. he fucking looks like MJ a bit there. what does it matteR? i still like the band.

  • I know I apologize. I was having a bit of a bad day. My girlfriend broke up with me without even telling me. And she was my best friend, but, I havnnt talked to her since. I do apolize though I was rude.

  • Michael Jackson can't sing like that... Fuck you!

  • That was AWESOME!! love it!!♥

  • love. :]

  • awh! davey's such a spazz :P

  • wow go davey!!!

    he dances so funny. he like does a jiig or something like that

    lol

    i love u davey!!!

    ur so awesome!!

  • lmao 3:50 jade can dance

  • Man, that was awesome.I love that song and AFI is the best.Thank you for sharing this video.Have a great weekend.God bless you and your family.

  • love that outfit Davey. :)

  • first song I ever heard from AFI

  • Is it me or are they playing it faster?

    This is my favorite song =3 (@the moment XD)

  • It's not just you

  • I noticed that too...

  • Perfect clothes! Long hair! Crazy dancing! My style! My Davey!

  • this is my fav song!!!!

  • i love how davey does that kick in the begining lol

  • awesome

  • this song is really awsome!!

  • JUST A THING: FANTASTIC

  • I'm in love with this song... I'm in love with them...:'(

    twisted...twisting!:D

    They're fuckin awesome!!! ;)

  • Almost forgot: CINEMATIC! <3

  • This makes me smile every time. Love them.

  • ha daveys dancing is hilarious!! god do i love him!

  • long hair<3

  • Big blur thing near the end

  • i thought davey was going to step on his mic cable and fall down, he jumps a lot around and still sings good... but i think he jumps too much, it's strange :P

  • wish they would have played this one when the were in denmark. love it!

  • they always put on a good show!

    =D

    seen them for my birthday!!

    best day ever!!!!!

    =D

  • Davey is mine.

  • Lucky they have only played this song live once in the whole time they have made it I would die to see this song live cause it's my favorite

  • Was that guy on helium or something? XD

  • his pitch is high. His range is pretty high as well, but its his pitch really that stands out.

  • thats what makes AFI, AFI

  • yes sir

  • aww when davey dances at the beginning it makes me smile

    i thought the performance was really good and he looked so hot in those shiny pants

  • Could you guys please just shut the hell up and stop taking up the entire comment page with your babbling paragraphs. Yes, we all love AFI, but seriously, who the hell cares what you guys effing think about the performance? Oh yeah, no one. *sigh

    Ooh, look, I made a paragraph too. I'll stop now.

  • lol its true

  • yup ;P

  • i wish they would perform at membertou trading centre or centre 200 or atleast halifax.

  • They're going waaaaay too fast. But it's still okay.

  • oh! theyve changed a lot. thx god they did cos they looked kida creepy...anyway i love this song. "vancancyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy"

  • This is such a good song.

  • amazing song, I wish they would perform it live more often....

  • yes it rocks

  • yeah,me too

  • i love it

  • I like how they sound the same as they do on a cd in for real life. Not like most bands they sound different.

  • have you seen them live... dont get me wrong i LOVE afi... but they play like sh!t... almost all of there sh!t... only a few sing the sorrow songs sound like the cd but for the most part it is NOTHING like how it is recorded... ive seen them a million times... even look at more live videos online

  • Are you serious? I've seen them many times and each time they have put on a fantastic show. Sound quality is always great as is the light show. They are even better live then on CD because of the energy they produce.

  • yeah seriously... davey sounds bad and jade doesnt play quite right... he is often out of key... GREAT energy and lights... VERY true... but i think they sound very bad... ive seen em a ton of times too and never did they sound like the cd's

  • Davey has to be one of the best singers EVER, and Jade is a musical genius. I can't believe you think he "doesn't play quite right"...that's just fucked up.

    I know you are entitled to your opinion, but why are you even watching these videos if you don't like AFI live? Seems kinda weird. You say you LOVE afi, but then in the same sentence say they sound like shit? hmmm......

  • its because im not ignorant... i do love afi... and i guarentee more then you... i have EVERY songe EVER recorded including the ones before dork ep ive met afi several times so much so to the point where they have reckonised me as "that guy who we see after shows" i have spent 1200 dollars to go see them at one show and i have travled over 1000 miles to see them and ive been going to there shows since they have been comming to reno in 1995 dont try to

  • talk shit to me about afi i know more trivial shit about them then anyone could ever dream and i can play almost all of afi's songs on guitar and a lot on bass... i still like to watch the videos even if i dont like the sound because i am that much of an avid fan.... the bottom line is you like them so much that you are blinded... i know music through and through so dont try to school me on that... jade is good... but not that

  • good... dont get me wrong the music is good BUT there is a lot better... again... dont get me wrong... i like afi above any band EVER... but the talent is lower then that of some bands... and it is a FACT that jade plays out of key live and he is lazy too... why dont you learn guitar and learn to play then tell me is you can see what mistakes he makes... and he isnt insanely amazing at guitar either... just good... there are others out there who

  • topple him... a lot of others... and as for davey... his recorded voice is excellent however live... he does NOT sound like the cd... and there is better vocalists too... ones who can hit more of a range with more tone and timbre... and ones who can scream better...so grow up dude... realize that its just that you like it and you are blinded by an opinion... then try to argue with me

  • Wow...you ae really full of yourself huh? Damn, who fucking died and made you god of rock? lol I've been around a long fucking time, and I guarantee you I know just as much about music as you. Ok, I don't play guitar, but I drum, but w/e I still know music.

  • im just telling you like it is thats all... you came off like a dick trying to act like i dont know what im talking about and i highly doubt that you do know as much about music as i do i have never met anyone who could fuck with me on music... you name it and i can tell you a lot about it, i have probably seen the band at one point, and/or i have met the people in question... i am not one of those

  • teen age idiots who say music is there life... it is mine however... from the age of 3 i have ALWAYS loved music and been way into it... and ill admit... i am full of myself on music because i am so confident with it that i know i know what im talking about almost always

  • Well you definitely don't in this case. So idk how confident you should be. You just come off sounding arrogant and condescending. AFI is one of the best live bands around and you talking shit about their live performance is just messed up.

  • and youre just an idiot... best bands around hun? you really are an idiot... the facts are as plain as day... and if you knew how to play anything you would know that too... this is a good video of them live but still too fast... can they not hear the metronome in there ear with the drumbs... its way too fast... this is a rare video... why dont you look up the chico show on march 6th... that was bad... look up any in a small venue... its not "messed up" idiot... its true

  • You are so mature...calling me an idiot. I have nothing more to say to you after this because obviously you aren't worth my time. Every band has off nights, but for the most part AFI is amazing live.

  • yeah im immature for calling you an idiot ok... im more mature then most people buddy... you came off all defencive about something you had nothing to do with so i was telling you like it is... and youre either youre wrong or on every one of the 17 times ive seen afi it has been an off day you fool

  • so quick but afi is amazing

  • fucking sexi :D

  • hah he looks lika queer but crazy jumping around like a lunatic so its ok

    one of my favorite songs by AFI

  • he dosent look queer but its funny

  • afi is the shit.

    fav band by far.

  • what i like about davey is that it seems he doesnt change the pitches of the words like a lot of bands. like the chorus if there is a word sung high, and they make it low just because its live.

  • my fav afi song. the lyrics are so beautiful. most amazing band live. i pity the haters cause they are really missing out

  • afi r really good live

  • Great song, great performance. I hope they will come to Poland in the future...

  • 1 of my fave songs
