AFI - Love is a Many Splendored Thing live at Area 4 2009!

[adolfometal2]

Look all the poser's face O_o? with this amazing song from early days

[BitterforSweet2]

3 dislikes??? what the heck is wrong with people these days? --- Do they not have good taste in music or what?....they need to go back to the swiss miss package where they belong!!

[MissBleedBack]

Man, I wish I was at that show.

[carlybea]

Smith is the man.

[michaelhavok]

Fuccccking rad! And it was smith their tour manager, jades bro. Gotta love old skool afi

[AFIrockshard]

awww poor stage guy davey was laying on.lol

[shadupp]

Why isn't Davey using that voice on the old songs when they perform them... Not on File 13, Nyquil, This Secret Ninja... this is the only song...

[Roberodification]

@shadupp because those songs are not as brutal vocally as that one to begin with, and he has to pace himself to last the whole set I imagine. one can only ask so much.

[FeelingFreshSon]

@Roberodification

I think it has to do with the new way he screams, this song is done in a style that he can do now with his new technique

[HoosierMF]

Davey's lying.  AFI sounded miles better than this 1991

[sirrock93]

good to see hunter still playing a jazz bass here, instead of the precision bass he plays now.

[dutchuribe]

this is afi man!!!

[justpullingyourleg]

afi were a hardcore band once?

who woulda known :)

good shit

[KeyXLimeXPieXPunko]

@justpullingyourleg i believe the REAL afi fans would have known

[justpullingyourleg]

@KeyXLimeXPieXPunko well i guess im not a REAL afi fan then haha

sorry for not knowing eveything :)

i dont know much about afi anyway. but i like em :)

[KeyXLimeXPieXPunko]

@justpullingyourleg o well listen to "SHUT YOUR MOUTH AND OPEN YOUR EYES", ot "BLACK SAILS IN THE SUNSET", ..actually just listen to all of their albums.

[justpullingyourleg]

@KeyXLimeXPieXPunko will do

[blackepi94]

Look at Jades face at 1:35. lmao he's tired and disgusted.

[NDD18]

I like his glazed over look at about 0:43. "Why am I fucking doing this?", and then at the end, "yeah...".

[blackinertia]

@NDD18 lmfao...so true!

[ebMagnum]

BADASS!!!

[DCsnipaa]

wow he doesnt sound gay in this video when he talks. im impressed, he should use his "real"voice more often

[Hunsfun]

lol @ 90% of the audience looking bemused. I've loved AFI for over a decade but their current fan base is pretty fail.

[honkysaxophone]

LMAO davey pretty much pile drives smith at the beginning!!! I LOVE THIS BAND!! :D

[EPCification]

okay i get it. you hate me. :)

[afireinsd647]

1, 2, fuck you! hahah (:

[cupojoe999]

davey's voice has really changed, its almost painful looking when he has to do the high pitched yells, still and amazing performance, and band.

[chelseagirl30]

His voice does sound really strained in this, maybe he was sick, I saw them play this in Melbourne early 2010 and it(his voice) sounded better.

[JisakuJ]

Ahahaha yeah this was an awesome show

[kamen687]

LOL FIRST PART LOL IM GONNA HUMP YOU COME HERE NAH IM JOKIN THATS FUNNY THO!!1

[simplygoth]

they are comming to the ATL. and i live 5 min from the venue.. but tix are so expensive i wont be able to go... DAMNIT. but amazing song. amazing band...

[curiousallosaurus]

I think they should have a tour where they play a few songs from every album... You would be able to hear their almost two decades worth of evolution.

[oxrjbizzle1984y]

pure punk!!!!!!!!

[Whatpressure]

Okay, if they wrote this in 91, then Davey was 16. What is this song hating on? God? Love? I thought it was love because of the title, and at 16 a boy would probably think about love a lot. or at least lust.

[Sickboy973]

Davey is still a punk.

[blueflame205]

Davey looks like a sexy skunk with his hair like that ^_^

[jos1]

pussy crowd

[MWASOF]

i saw them play this at soundwave in melbourne

i wasnt born when they wrote this song

that being said it was so amazing

[shadupp]

no way! his old voice is back! thats fuckin sick

[Dayberry]

Well seeing I was born in 1991 I guess I missed that.

[TastiusBurger]

@Dayberry lol that made me laugh

[runnersdialzero33]

So fucking cool that they brought such an obscure song back. I'm not one of those kids who hates the newer stuff, but it is a little sad to see basically everyone in the crowd oblivious to what they're playing.

[darkunderground95]

i saw them do this song live back in december so i had to look it up.. fucking amazing

[DavHxC]

WOW I LOVE IT!

[trinigirl8skater]

Yep tht smith puget

[iwillnevergetone5]

this is amazing!! great to see a mix of old & new. and is that Smith Puget?

[xJohanPx]

This is so good!

[parkerafi]

saw they in January this song was amazing live and i"m not using amazing lightly

[TwoneXCeLZ]

saw this live twice

[HolyMilck]

lets just all pray for a Nitro Tour.

[mikeownsthisroom]

@HolyMilck that would be my fucking dream... seriously

[iamdorkette]

LOL Smith <3.

And awesome video.

[lilrockergurl95]

sick. Pure, oldskool hardocre Afi. :)

[DEP31]

I would kill to see an entire show of older AFI songs. I saw them back in '05 and they played 3 1/2. I think I was the only one who knew it.

[slipknotrocker9]

badass, i wish they converted back to this afi

[revivethe90s]

This gave me goosebumps! is there hope for an early years AFI show?!?!?!

[TheSecretNinja337]

@revivethe90s not in a million years.

[hanisi123]

australias soundwave

[drdawolf]

@revivethe90s one can only hope!

[drdawolf]

@revivethe90s but then again AFI is amazing no matter what they do..

[alternativemusicrock]

@revivethe90s if they did, that would please a ton of people, but they're just bringing out a few songs, davey's voice can't take much more sadly

[VampireKitten103]

@alternativemusicrock actually for his age and the sugery he had he should still be able to sing like this for a looong time. we should always ask them to have a concert just their old stuff for the fans that wernt there.

[alternativemusicrock]

@VampireKitten103 well, if that's true, then AWESOME! davey can still do screaming for a while (though he should be conservative since he IS getting older)

[JustGreatComedy]

AFI play there songs for themselves not some scene kids that just heard Miss Murder or Medicate on the radio one day. Fuck the ones that only like DU and CL. Although DU is my fav album ever i love all their albums. They all have sings that stand out to me and this is one of them

[RoxieHarlow337]

This is fucking badass! Man, I wish they'd played this at the show I was at! Got Triple Zero, though. :)

[murcielago06gt]

Look at :34! Number one, not more than barely a headbang! Number two, no moshing, or even movement! These people just don't get live hardcore! But most importantly, number three- who the fuck claps?! Who the fuck claps?! What is this clapping at the end? What the fuck was that?

[murcielago06gt]

At least they're playing a kick ass song from back in the day. That's the least they can do. The most they can do is be their own band and not try to get rich off music like they are today. I really want to see them, but I refuse to go to a venue with seats, a stage higher than 4 feet, the inability to get at most 3 feet from the stage, and the no moshing allowed rule enforced. I love the little places. Fuck the arenas.

[Nirvan5320]

yeah i saw them live in nov and they play triple zero and i was the only one who knew it....

[kohinn]

so fucking hood

[Dayberry]

I HATE YOU

[kawaiikaruson]

Im really glad they are playing their older songs again. It's great to hear them live rather than on the CD all the time!

[TheSupercack]

i just hope davey dont ruin his voice again by all this screaming. i love it though.

[Fantosonium]

I'm with you on that one, I'm always worried about his when he does that....

[sorahime121]

such a horrible crowd >.>

[psychomidget482]

@sorahime121 cause all of the new fans only know DU and Crash Love

[SpiritFanNumber1]

That's a sad audience they've got there.

Being a new fan isn't any excuse. I just became an AFI fan this summer, and when they played "LIAMST" at the concert I went to, I knew all the words and how to rock out, just like any fan should.

[AFIfreak4life1]

ahahaha smith <3

[dianasoft]

daveys hot

[angussaunders]

fucking great!!!

[MrSodaBelly]

ya davey let those new fuckers know!

lol the new fans cant even tell if its the same band...

loved afi when it stood for "Asking For It" and "Anthems For Insubordinates"

[spyhunter1223]

and the beginning of "A Fire Inside" up until about 2006... eh whatever

[KSClover1]

I like it =D

[FrozenPennies]

PATHETIC! Those kids can't even start a circle pit for that song?! Tsk, tsk...

[OscarEz]

yeah

just stfu ;)

[rlmofreg]

Awesome quality!!!!

[idiot1321]

Lame audience doesn't even know how to dance to a hardcore song.

[BreadCasket]

@idiot1321

haha they're all clapping during the breakdown... kids these days...

[Ragedhard]

ahahaha, look at the expression on Davey's face after he sees that

[rainbowchakra90]

I'm sure some where in that crowd there's a group of people who know what they're doing.

[kBR00TALITY]

theyve still got it.

that is so awesome

[canesrule96]

sounds like a band with something to prove

that thing is that they still got it

[macca3666]

1.. 2.. FUCK YOU

[Hobbos]

They will never going to sound like that again:(

I LOVE pre-art of drowning AFI

I HATE post-sing the sorrow AFI

[boov22]

trilled to see them play an old song live finally. its been a very long time since i've seen them play something like this. it doesn't sound the same as it used to, but i'd take it over half their stuff any day

[MyGoodApollo]

yea they have really started to play alot of there older songs again since Crash Love, and they all still sound good, i love the mix of old and new.

[washd123]

this is easily one of the best performances davys voice is back!

[PinkNinja337]

same here!

[carlybea]

AFI has so many fantastic songs, and I'mma let them finish, but this is one of their best of all time. Of all time! xD

I lost my voice while trying to sing along with this at an AFI show last week :D

[KipKoala]

Love it. I got in to the more recent stuff from Decemberunderground, but after I lsitening to thier old/classic stuff I completly fell in love.

[Manyhavokdepp8]

i love my boys!!

[oxrjbizzle1984y]

i fucking love all the old afi stuff, but the new album is really cool too! this song owns! love the screams!

[VilliXD]

Pff, this is still far from what it really used to be. I'm sure Davey would've enjoyed contact with the crowd just like back then.

And yeah , It's sad that this huge crowd didn't go nuts. I wonder if I would've been there, would've there been one hell of a mosh ? It should take 1 awesome guy to start it all. ;D

[seibumoo]

Anyone else take notice of the crowd totally not getting into it? They're like, "DECEMBERUNDERGROUND wasn't their second album?" Buhwhaaa?

[Transformersdirector]

i hate that when someone gets so into a band but they dont know the first thing about that band!!so hypocritical!!!!!

[TuRtLeSaC95]

I LOVE THIS OLD STUFF =D

[kingforaday721]

oh man I miss this. they need more of these oldies in their current set.

[greenfury87]

In 2009 this is what afi sounds like: man sex.

[Dustin795]

more like in 2003-present

[Transformersdirector]

is that an insult?

[greenfury87]

No i was just kidding. I actually like the new stuff. Its just different.

[Transformersdirector]

man sex would be the backstreet boys who prbably do have sex with each other on their tour bus........

[jamoebaggins1992]

WHOO!!! fucken awsome that theyre playing this song again!!!

[redsoxledzep]

his voice is kinda pussy right now haha but i wish theyd do it again

[chadewatson]

i wish they covered all the older songs,

with this much energy

[redsoxledzep]

haha it's good man but his voice turned like emo

[carlybea]

^_^ Love <3

[redsoxledzep]

go back to this please

[Ragedhard]

He looks pissed at the crowd.

[roy37mm]

Buenísimo! Mugre Pablo siempre tienes rips muy buenos jaja

[mxvirus]

wow, they look so exhausted. heh

[afireinsideRou]

I went to that festival just to see AFI because I'm a huge fan of them...As we know the crowd in festivals, has people who don't know every single band that perfomes..So you shouldn't be so critic about the crowd..

[carlybea]

Haha. Smith. XD

[Carnage337]

DUDE once again you deliver and awesome clip!

[xjustxthinkx]

Haha davey and smith x

[vent0lin616]

Holy shit. The crowd sucks so fucking much.

[pinklovesafi]

I agree.

But at 1:17, you can see some girls singing with them...If that lifts your spirts at all. :)

[vent0lin616]

It's like the song completely died at about 45 seconds in, and after that point, he was directing the "1-2-fuck you" and "I hate you" to the crowd itself.

The disappointment and boredom you can hear in his voice when he says "I hate you" while looking at the crowd at 0:54 is just terrible.

[pinklovesafi]

I know what you mean.

Too many people care about either "old" AFI or "new" AFI.

No old.

No new.

It's just AFI!

That's IT!!

[BlindMkd]

I agree , i would have orgasamed if I was there...

They are just stoned :(.

[ominousXstorms]

I'm so glad they're playing this song on this tour. It's a nice change!

[fallchild00]

HAHAHA!

Fuckiing Smith.

xD

[puzoldookie]

OMG Soooo good to listen to Davy sing like that again =)

[Thelaughingman187]

look at all the confused little scenesters, AFI used to b hardcore u lil panzy followers and they kicked ass, not the crap they play now

[mikeownsthisroom]

now this is the fucking AFI i love!!!!!

[thetruerater5]

When these guys were at Edgefest...half the time they were basicly doing standup since the guitar kept breaking, haha

[DreamOfWaking21]

HAHA i love this!!!

[Terre2099]

this was epic, AFI's best performance of this song

[DefBrif]

Thank you!! Won't this get deleted though?

[TheSecretNinja337]

Hopefully no :P

[kyke2068]

awesome, gracias pablo.

[kmlars22]

o my god thats amazing. i love smith singing. thanks so much pablo

[Shaitan295]

[miseriavolare]
