  • really cool

  • faggotry scale: 10/10

  • Improvvisation CUNTS.

    FREE YOUR MINDS. IF I WANT TO LISTEN THE ORIGINAL JOY DIVISION I LISTEN TO MY ALBUMS.

  • That guitar solo just ruins a perfect song by Joy Division. Thanks to Dave Navvaro I am now deaf.

  • I don't see why all the hate is intended the guy's did a cover of a Song and they improvised on how they liked it, I can't say moby liked that way but its not a bad cover, personally i find the sound of the guitar quite nice. But it's all a matter of your own personal opinion...

  • nothing like the original one... yeah navarro you aint no ian curtis, just go back playing with your little shitty metal band. this should be a tribute to one of the best song of one the greatest band ever.

  • Dave's solo is awesome. End of.

  • eat me, jarek

  • always one of my fave JD songs and Dave is amazing, love it love it love it.

  • when your trying to play joy division your taking on an impossible task. i think its lovely they thought to try at all.

  • If anyone knew the meaning of impromptu maybe your criticism would not be so harsh, i love this rendition!

  • two of musics biggest douche bags.

  • @deathrockunion

    who is the douche bag lol.

    its moby, fall on ur knees and apologize

  • @Letes92 no....i'll pass haha..ive heard moby tried to say he was in the band flipper. ever since then i just can't help but see him as someone trying to be something he's not. and to me it kinda shows in this. plus dave navarro? im not even gonna comment on him. but that's just one opinion, out of millions.

  • @deathrockunion

    he is moby, nuff said ;) but dont worry, some day the light will shine on you too...just wait..and listen

  • @Letes92 ......okay ....*kicks ground*

  • they played it shitty,but if you think this song is"depressive crap" you dont like music

  • I'm sorry Mr. Moby but I don't get it...Dave, avoid this guy and his depressing crap.

  • I cannot see this getting a Play in Mary Ds Manchester,,,the Killers do a much better Joy Div cover.

    Allthough i could see Dave Navarro and Ian Curtis going to watch Man City then going on a bender down Deansgate

  • WTF? Moby isn't feeling anything of the song... this cover sucks so bad.

  • 1) dave navarros sound never was exquisite or summin

    2) crap guitar sound fits the song (not because the song is crap but..u know what I mean)

    3) solo is awesome, just too loud in the end, which makes u lose the beat a bit (and that makes u think it does not fit)

  • Leave Navvvvvvarrrrooo alone. There is no greater JD fan than I. They pay homage and that is good enough for me.

  • god this navarro guy sucks....play the original you fuckin idiot...how dare you improvise on a joy division song you stupid metal fag

  • @pan0s95

    excellent! you're an absolute master of insulting. I bet Dave Navaroo is whining right now.

  • @Be4n93 why, you disagree mate?

  • @pan0s95

    He fucked up the solo, I agree. However, I don't think he meant to disrespect JD. You have every right to criticise ths, I just can't understand why there was so much hate in your comment. Personally I enjoy listening to this version (John Frusciante covered it much better though). Cheers mate.

  • both seem to be bored !!

  • i would expect more from these guy at least when it come to sound. Sounds like hes using the cheapest guitar ever... awful indeed

  • That's pretty decent, like it. Who gives a fuck about Dave Navarro's solo, it fits well.

  • i actually don't mind it...even if it did lose it's way at the end with the solo..

    i like watching other peoples interpretation of one of the greatest songs ever written.

  • lol John Frusciante did a way better cover alone on an acoustic than these guys with a whole band.

  • does he get the lyrics at the start wrong on purpose or by mistake?

  • i strongly dislike dave navarro. he is a fag. id rather not have pulled this video up.

  • Give them the respect of trying to cover a JD song.

  • ahah it makes me think about a bad cover of Flea, Josh & John covering Joy Divison

  • Sounds very un professoinal. There is no tone at all. The bass is shity soundsing, and the vocals suck. Dave navaroos got metal distortoin on for some reason. ugh is so bad

  • @TheGreysChannel You know dude I'm a Joy Division Fan too but you have to be objective... JD was a great band, but the instruments were sounding like shit... But the music was great. Joy Division was minimalist music... It sucks to cover a song with 4-5 notes if you're gonna play it like the original... I'm a guitarist since 14 years. Navarro is good, man. No one can sound professional with Joy Division music... You'll always have that old punk-garage sound...

  • WHY THE FUCK CAN'T PEOPLE ACCEPT THAT THIS IS A GREAT PERFORMENCE stop criticizing the players and listen to the song man, there all great performers.

  • People are like vacuum cleaners they both suck this version of this song is great !

  • Terrible version, had absolutely none of the feeling of the original.

  • Joy Division are 4 very average musicians who created a genius sound that imo can't be copied . Dave Navarro is a good musician who makes himself look a right cock with this pathetic solo . Less is very much more ........... aint that right Barney ?

  • i've seen joy division twice,and i was with the first fans of this band.this cover is a good cover,a little bit sophisticated !!!anyway,it's just like a tribute !!!

  • It's a shame. Dave can't play for shit. :(

  • @AbsolutBB what you mean, joy division was "shit" ,

    @AbsolutBloodyBastard where are you coming from: "camp rock 2" or "highschool walt disney rock music" ??? go back to your gutter and stay there !!!

  • @dominique6259 I don't have an issue with Joy Division, you jackhole! My comment is about how shitty Dave Navarro sounds. Get it together, geez.

  • Why do I hate Dave Navarro so much. He reminds me of a 'model' that wants desperately wants to be a rocker. He looks like he sends out his worn out jeans and chain wallet to the dry cleaners. FAKE all around. I'll bet $50 bucks he plucks his eyebrows. Moby always seems as if he is gonna cry cause the mean girls took his lunch money.

  • @DennisFranz ahahahahahahahaha I concur.

  • it sucks really

  • I have to disagree with you guys. This cover was really good, and I don't think the solo ruins anything.

  • That guitarist is doing it wrong

  • Please - > stop dajnoch and jelerdebom and all the rest of you... "Then why don't you sing me somethin!?!?" haha

    You know as well as I do it was a good cover - very good - I actually and I don't even like moby. Dave is a great musician and not some idiot off the street - ok? get a clue - Perry Ferrell if anyone was the stupid one as far as JansAdiction and that solo crap...

  • @atmosphere72 I agree. I think it is a decent cover and a cover does not mean a cloned version of a song but one that retains the essence of the original combined with the artist's interpretation.

  • Please - > stop dajnoch and jelerdebom... You know as well as I do it was a good cover - very good - I actually and I don't even like moby. Dave is a great musician and not some idiot off the street - ok? get a clue - Perry Ferrell if anyone was the stupid one as far as JansAdiction and that solo crap...

  • Please - > stop dajnoch and jelerdebom... You know as well as I do it was a good cover - very good - I actually and I don't even like moby. Dave is a great musician and not some idiot off the street - ok? get a clue

  • @atmosphere72 ok but the joy division musicians came from the working class !!

    from the street,anyway !!

  • Please - > stop dajnoch and jelerdebom... You know as well as I do it was a good cover - very good - I actually and I don't even like moby. Dave is a great musician and not some idiot off the street - ok? 

  • mmh never liked dave. im gonna go back a page and listen to john frusciante again for this song

  • sooo awesome sound from sooo awesome movie: H E A T

    x]

  • agree~solo sucked~ whats with the fucking Slash solo in a Joy Division song?

  • i say leave the singing for the pro's

  • I thought Dave would've played a less bluesy solo over this, just doesn't fit the song.... At all.

  • i thought it was pretty good. the solo ruined it though.

  • I'm not gay, but if Dave wanted a go, I couldn't say no...

  • good cover-but the solo took all the feelings away, but all in all: i like it.

  • sucks balls!

  • whats with the guitar solo? cunt!

  • @chrisjfields exactly, kills it

  • @JeanSeeberg Fuck Off

  • @chrisjfields I get it but Dave Navarro just went Dave Navarro on you. What did you expect? Where have you been? Crawl out of your hole already! I'm usually a purist when it comes to Joy Division but those two just showed you, who their major influence has always been. Relax. Breathe.

  • Decent version. Great song.

  • Comment removed

  • the intro is great...almost approaches the original in quality. there's just something about a guy who isn't suicide-bound singing the lyrics that doesn't seem quite right, though.

  • never seen dave play a les paul, cool dude!

  • Frusciante, eres un pendejo por hechar a perder uno de los mejores solos de guitarra de la historia!

  • shut up. I like it

  • sucks

  • It would have been a great cover if the bass had been in tune.

  • I hate to say it, but this version really sucks. They fail to capture the live energy of Joy Divison - the live versions of their songs are far superior to the studio albums (IMO).

    Check out my band's version of Shadowplay as a comparison: (type in "This is Not Art Shadowplay")

  • Hey. Is Moby on guitar or bass here?? Sorry, just that I'm not pretty sure.

  • those who cant do criticize

  • It´s not shitty, it´s just the original is unbeatable

  • Can Dave do anything right? Is it possible? Is he really that bad on guitar?

    He murdered this song, he's clearly jealous of John, whether John or Dave cares is irrelevant.

    John is better at guitar, singing, and guitar and singing at the same time :D

  • <3 Moby

    Always have and always will hate Dave

  • Dave Navarro is a wanker.

  • The guitar sounds terrible ! That mid range is annoying

  • This is the best cover out there. Heck, I didn't think the original was that great and would rather listen to this one. Saw Moby perform it live, but it wasn't the same.

  • @blueyedream

    Myself mate, I'm a huge Joy Division fan, come from Ireland by the way. This cover is great... I love Moby. Have never seen the guy live, just find it interesting that you have. Was he any good?

  • @CARNLOU

    One of the best concerts I've seen. He throws out a great mix of both old and new songs, and his variety of genres just add to the magic. Guy is my personal fav artist so I may be a little biased, but honestly, there's no other artist out there that explores different genres as much as Moby.

  • Joy Division covers should be banned ... END OF !!

  • Would love to see them do transmission if any one has a link send it me please.

  • i want a les paul gold top.

  • too much distorion . maybe some reverb and delays on the cleans woul had helped the fills .

  • Yes....something more calm could fit it better....nice comment.

  • i fucking HATE moby and dave navarro, but think they did a pretty good job on this song. moby sorta nailed ian curtis's atonal, cracking vocal thing he had going

  • @heresyisprogress

    Out of pure interest, what do you have against Moby??

  • wow that is real bad ... outch

    mobys studio version is fine tho

  • Too much distortion. Moby has good taste in music and is a talented musician, however, he will never cover this song right no matter how many times he does it.

  • Lose the Moby

  • its moby he got the moby style dont hate

  • jesus christ his singing is not that bad

  • i think moby was the one that ruined the song.... dave has his own style but moby just plain out sux

  • This guy shouldn't be singing! His vocals sucks!

  • fuck his guitar tone sucks so bad......

  • your guitar tone sucks, If he saw you man im famous what are you nothing you mother fucker you and this ain't Joe Pesci saying this either. Peter Clemente is the best man to ever live.

  • @dime636374 its pretty close to the joy division tone..

  • it s not that bad, solo guitar is nice, vocals little bit "powerless" but they don't have to do a stupid lookalike cover they do on their way, i like it.

  • I agree with Loic. They ruined this beautiful song and Moby sings like crap.

  • Wonderful, until the solo comes in and wanks in Barneys face.

  • I agree it was an awesome solo but I think it could have been more awesome if heed toned it down a little bit. Just one reporters opinion.

  • flea john and josh also performanced this song...funny

  • If you guys want to check out an awesome cover of this song, check out this band called "Silence" they are from Misawa Japan, search "Silence new dawn fades" it's a great cover, guitar solo is bad ass.

  • This was also in the movie "Heat" just before Pacino pulls over Deniro on the highway. Michael Mann loves to put music as an atmospheric enhancer, and he used this with really good effect.

  • mon dieu mon dieu !!le plus beau titre de toute la planete completement detruit par un moby sans consistance (SUBSTANCE)et un batteur completement a le ramasse !!! ecoutez l original !!

  • Je suis hélas d'accord avec toi.

  • Yea, Navarro fucked up a good effort w/ that crap solo.

  • I was digging it  til Navarro did his solo.

  • Poor.

  • You.

  • I think they all did a pretty good job out of this cover... Moby is not Ian Curtis, but c'mon, I really think his vocals did some justice to the original version... The problem, is that "kids" nowadays get used to American Idol kind of shit, and think that's what good singing is all about... In my opinion he truly embraced the spirit of this song.

  • I don't think that Moby is trying to cash in on this song , nor does he need to. It's only a cover music lovers.Rarely are they better than the original, but at least there are two very competent musicians doing this song live , and I think it's pretty good .Didn't cost anything. I'll still play the JD one before anything when I get the joneses for NDF. MOBY STILL KICKS ASS !

  • Moby can't sing to save his F-cking life. He makes some pretty good music but his voice is not so good. I think I sound better in the shower when I'm drunk. Navarro is awesome here but I think overall but John Frusciante is better. Please stop singing Moby. Your music sounds so much better without your vocals.

  • Dave Navarro is one cool mutha. That cannot be denied...

  • this video doesn't suck, it's great. i like when rock/pop musicians jamming to the classics, it's much like the jazz 50-60's, different players move around and play with a wide variety of players, creating something new or by playing (jazz/rock/popular) standards... really gives a depth to the meaning of writing good songs, so enjoy this, and manymore collaborations to come, wouldn't you like to see dave mustaine & jurassic5 & shania twain jam on some classic song??? the future!!!

  • jazz is musical wankin....jazz musicians enjoy themselves way more than anyone watchin

  • yer...that bombed

  • i really dig this cover. anyone who doesn't like this version should check out the versions on moby's I Like To Score cd or the Heat soundtrack. very cool.

  • wow that blew lol

  • Now any gay can go and play jod divison´s songs.Sorry,u r not Joy division.Just posers

  • I So Love Moby, sighs..... @>-->--

  • Dave wasn't that bad. His tone is awful though. I guess I missed the whole Dave era but good on him.

    Elitists, of any kind, are almost, without fail, assholes

  • and navarro sucks!

  • very shitty version, the best version (apart the original of course) is the frusciante's acoustic version!

  • fuck off...frusciante aint here

  • go fuck yourself asshole, these two really suck in this video!!! YOU GOTTA ADMIT THAT!

  • its true they do suck, but i would say the best version is still the original.

  • yes, you're probably right... original version is fuc*ing best!!!! nobody can beat that original version in my opinion ...

  • @dajnoch it;s a good version. give them credit just for laying Joy division

  • @filip1900 fuck you, this version is gay as hell... it fucking sucks

  • they are only doing a cover of a track they like what is wrong with that? the worst it can do is make more people aware of joy division. i personally think you could never beat the original but this is cool, killer guitar

  • Sounds ok to me.Pretty much non of you saw Joy Division live anyway,I can tell you they were not that great live.

  • Sorry to say, but this sounds like just an average school band, Joy Division rules!

  • It's decent, I suppose, but I think I prefer Frusciante's live acoustic cover. It seems to reflect the rawness of the music better.

  • God...this is poor. Please people u have nothing to add to joy division, please....just leave JD alone.

  • WTF!? dave navarrow should not be touching a classic like this! not even moby for that matter, but defenitely not dave. I bet dave navarro when asked to cover this didnt even know who it was from. Sheesh!

  • actually joy division were one of his and the rest of jane's addictions favourites bands.

  • I second that. Hooky even appeared on one of the more recent things Perry did, so there's some definite respect there from Jane's Addiction. Personally, I felt Moby did fine; he brings a more emotional bent to what really is a dark song. But, I'm biased; I've always loved Moby's JD covers.

  • Dave Navarro is one of the most over rated guitar players of all time

  • This is weak.

  • Ugh... I've heard some good Navarro guitar solos. That ain't one of them.

  • Where are Al n' Bobsie?

  • its funny to me that every one rips on dave ...you guys don't realize in todays world there aren't too many rockers left w/ a mind open enough to jam to a Joy Division song !

  • Joy Division fans have a serious psychological complex...as if it's their own little secret that no one else can share with them. Grow up. A great band like JD was bound to influence a ton of musicians across a multitude of genres. Since when is this a bad thing?

  • Oh bravo Dave, way to miss the point entirely. Retard.

    Classic song, classic band (Joy Division), sorely missed.

  • yes i agree 100% :-(

  • I thought it was pretty good until Navarro did the guitar solo, gee how many times have we heard that? Oh about 4 million times? And that was just the 70's. At 4.07 I turned it off. There was no skill or imagination on Navarro's part with that, yeah yeah Navarro we know you can play solos, so what? Stretch yourself artistically you can do solos like that since you were 15, you can do them in your sleep. I am surprised Moby even knows him let alone be on stage with him.

  • i cant believe that moby didnt walk off stage during that solo.

  • great cover!

  • I don't like Dave too much, but this solo wasn't bad.

  • Moby is a creative talent, Navaro shreds nothing to prove at all, but fuck man have a heart. A cover of a joy Division classic that is equal parts Helen Reddy and Quiet Riot. Stop it. I hope JD isnt the next band to get the DOORS revival treatment, t-shirts, shitty covers and a cheezy biopic at the multiplex

  • Sadly, I think it's too late -- the horrific revival is well upon us.

  • I will give them a B+. They would have got an A but that solo was a bit much

  • Moby, man... I can't feel the pain at all.. Lousy...

    And the guitarsolo... Man sounds like something from a bad guns'n roses album... I feel sick

  • Terrible cliched blues solo for a song that's a million miles from the blues. Totally unoriginal.

  • Fortunately Joy Division have the last laugh. They did more to put the tombstone on blues and guitar solos than any other band.

  • I love JD. I also think Stevie Ray Vaughan is the greatest guitarist of all time. Why is there a need to bash different genres?

  • Moby is fucking terrible singer...

    That Dave's solo was enormous!

  • Yea, Dave...sigh! Too hot!

  • nice.

  • bored

  • Lol... Navarro to the rescue!!!

  • 4 Stars for Navarro, 0 Stars for Moby. Sounds like a bad high school band.
