  • robert smith killed this song :|

  • no no im sure im in love .. with this song XD

  • Like this one a lot more, but Robert Smith's isn't bad by any means. 

  • Robert Smith's version is way better^^

  • Prefer the Robert Smith version but love this too!

  • ...I actually like Lee Min Ki's cover of this song

  • @jenu1 Lee Minki's version is perfection tbh.

  • Platinum Blonde? cool

  • This song puts into words what I couldn't figure out how to say.

  • ETHAN <3333

  • This version sucks donkeys compared to the Robert Smith version.

  • @YourMomWaterworth No, Robert Smith's version sucks donkeys compared to this. You know how people say the original is the best and the sequel sucks? Well it the same here.

  • @OldGregLovesYou

    This is not "the original" :-) It was a song by Canadian 80's New Wave group Platinum Blonde. By the way, I love all versions!

  • yea i love this one much more than Robert Smith version

  • I think this version is better then Robert Smith's version. This one feels to fit their style a lot better.

  • loove this version soo much better than with robert smith's voice

  • fifa 12 :)

  • @proxuan27047 Crystal Castles is on Fifa this year?

  • @187NewJack on fifa 12 game XD

  • 31 People are Not Loved !

  • Luv it.........

  • Oh Alice. The babies i would make with you.

  • es la voz de la chica?

  • @PERUTECHNO no, es la voz d l tecladista ethan kath

  • @AngeelMooreStar muchas gracias aun asi la flaka no canta entonces? se llama alexia¿

  • @PERUTECHNO es alice glass y es vocalista en en la mayoria de canciones :)

  • @AngeelMooreStar waooo lastima crei quwe en esta cancion ella cantaba

  • 2:48

  • I'm glad for both versions. A Yin and Yang, so to speak.

  • Yeah, i think this version is better

  • whats with the random indian guy in suggested vids

  • Fifa 12!

  • For real crystal castles fans is this version better . why ? cuz Alice's voice's in here not any fake voice ...

  • @TheEllyJackson There such thing as a 'real' fan. I aint a figment of your imagintation sunshine, I love the other version slightly more than this and I love Crystal Castles, guess I'm real, and I'm a fan. JUST LIKE EVERY OTHER FUCKER.

  • @ShadowxBoi yeah true anyway I prefer this version <3

  • @TheEllyJackson Alice's voice is in the Robert Smith version too, 'cept it's just for one verse. Personally I think her vocals stand out and make more of an impact when contrasted with Smith's, but that's just me.

  • @TheEllyJackson Ethan's voice, not Alice's

  • @richy013 if u think so but Ethan sounds female then XD 

  • @richy013 this is Alice's voice

  • This version is better than Robert Smith's in my opinion

  • @TimeForFunnz uuuh no, go fuck yourself

  • Comment removed

  • @TimeForFunnz oh no wait, I though you meant that version is better, no this one is definitely better, so I agree with you

  • @omgitsjk101 Ok! :D <3

  • @TimeForFunnz I like both equally. They've got their own amazing feels to them - but this is more ethereal than that one.

  • @dgalerabies i feel you 100% on that.

  • i want to make a movie just to put this song in it

  • 31 people like the shitty new version

  • @omgitsjk101 Lol with robert smith? I hate robert smith he made some losers swarm to CC who aren't even real fans, they just like robert smith.

  • Comment removed

  • 31 people need to go fuck themselves. with a knife.

  • fuck yes <3

  • BEST VS until PEOPLE FUCKED IT OUT

    BEST v.s FUCKED PEOPLE

  • <3

  • Lol I like this version better, robert smith's whiny ass voice is annoying

  • Your opinion is invalid.

  • Never have i seen such beauty.

  • Fifa!!

  • @Chris10249100 @PUIKA777 The FIFA 12 version is featuring Robert Smith of The Cure

  • @ramabima ah okay

  • fifa 12 :)

  • Both versions are amazing they make you just wanna think about your life and escape the sadness and torment in it. Makes you want to find that someone that shows you the truth of love and happiness

  • All I know is that I like very version of this song. Platinum Blonde as well as Crystal Castles with out without Robert Smith.

  • AHhh I like them both!

  • wow this version sucks for sure

  • @SporadicTroll pffffffffff robert smith..... too big of a song for him

  • @gaspar30 Wow, do you even know how much credibility Robert Smith has? He is a once-in-a-generation talent.

    Why do you think they asked him to sing vocals? He is damn talented, that's why.

    I heard they dropped him because he took too much of the limelight, which is understandable given his standing in the alternative music world.

  • @TheSnoopy1750 Damn, you read my mind. :) I absolutely agree, Robert Smith is a once in a generation kind of talent....

  • i hate when people are like " ETC Brought me here " its annoying, i dont care who the fuck brought you here as long as your listening to amazing music thats all that matters

  • @Alkalinepanda ETC brought me here. U mad?

  • @MysticGoku Nope haha

  • @Alkalinepanda

    At least the Music and The band is getting famous so stfu 

  • FIFA 12 will brought me here.

  • I sure wish I could find this version on i tunes

  • her cheekbones are incredible,,

  • this song got me touched everytime i hear it

  • It's funny how everyone's talking about alice's great vocals on this, when it's actually ethan singing it.

  • DEGRASSI!

  • @ImmaKrillin i really thought it was gonna be Drew who gets shot or Bionca.

  • ..and we were lovers. now we cant be friends, fascination ends, here we go again....

  • Degrassi. Vince. The Gun.

  • @ImmaKrillin ; _ ; Mai poor Adam. </3

  • This song is absolutely AMAZING live!!

  • Still like the original one !!!!!!!

  • thumbs up if you perfer the original over the cover!!

    Alice Glass > Robert Smith

  • @Turtle00094 the original is by Platinum Blonde

  • @Turtle00094 original as in 1985 Platinum Blonde!! lol...the original original is best. but i still love Alice. :)

  • @tycospg There is a crystal castle version is robert smith singing it

  • @Turtle00094 I heard Ethan sings this version.

  • @W0ND3R1F1C hmm I could see that :/

  • hammergeil :)

  • its like old nintendo games

  • perfect remake of a classic Canadian 80s song

  • God. This song almost makes me cry :|

  • Love Alice Glass' haunting vocals. btw does anyone know if theres a new album/single coming out soon? its been a while. I can't complain though considering all the live shows they do. They can't have much time for new material...

  • @jaaaaackkkkk it's only been a year.

  • fuck up about the versions. they're both good. all you guys are like the whiny girlfriend no one wants

  • @xHeyMoonx well i want you

  • haha, wow. How could anyone possibly think that this version is better than the Robert Smith version? The singing in this version is hilariously bad.

  • @Thehappypages why would you listen to crystal castles if you think the singing is bad, Alice > Robert

  • @Thehappypages go fuck youre self >.>

  • Finally, the good version.

  • two versions?

    

  • Love this song but...people do most of realize RS didnt write this song..was band out of Canada in the 80's "Platinum Blonde" check it out.

  • endless song!

  • very depressive

    

  • @schnabelkunst *impressive

  • This is so much better than the robert smith version!! I really dont like his annoying, moaning vocals!!

  • @aflliction @flyaway316 @Badlyburned @rakkania @rhipirateprincess

    LOLOL i love how many negative comments i've gotten. Lrn2countertroll guys, cmon. I know youtube is famous for idiotic arguments, but let's not perpetuate the stereotype.

    Personaly, I dont like The Cure. This version of Not in Love is much better than their re-cover imo.

    Opinions: something youtube comment threads will never understand.

  • I'm so glad the first time I ever heard this song I was on shrooms. It was like a magical zero g experience. At 2:50 what was left of my already melted brain became a beautiful explosion of color and pure emotion.

  • Comment removed

  • sorry but this version is rubbish without the instrumental chorus they did on the RS version. and it really needs his voice

  • Who the fuck is Robert Smith?

  • @SquirtleScott92 lead singer for The Cure

  • @SquirtleScott92 oh dear..

  • @SquirtleScott92 Seriously? SERIOUSLY?!

  • @SquirtleScott92 *facepalm*

  • @SquirtleScott92 facepalm x2

  • @SquirtleScott92 Where the fuck are you from fucking asshole ?? from Jupiter ?? IDIOT!

  • The problem with going mainstream is that the record company soon decides to start pulling the strings. I don't blame them! If I had a cash cow, I would milk it dry, taste be damned!

    The only people who lose out are the true fans...

  • what the hell is this

  • @daleh1234567 awesomeness

  • @daleh1234567 bliss.

  • I like this high pitch voice version better.

    i dunno why.

    gets my emotions going more

  • Alice Glass would smack all of you for arguing about Crystal Castles being "mainstream." If you hadn't noticed they sell out shows all over the world and couldn't give a fuck. They're the first to admit that their success was a complete accident. Ethan Kath uploaded Alice Practice on myspace and was contacted with a record deal 6 months later. Alice was out getting high in the streets, had no contact with Ethan and had no idea that their shit blew up. Neither of them even like electronic music

  • so satisfying once that beat drops in the third chorus...def worth the 3 min wait!!!

  • robert smith is gonna make them mainstream for fuck's sake.-.-

  • @RianHeartattack you could just like what you like, and let other people like what they like too... and... if it goes mainstream, you could be happy for the success of artists you enjoy. :P

  • @mandapop i like this version,i never said i dont,but i hate arists i like going mainstream.my opinion!

  • @RianHeartattack all mainstream means is that the artist is having their dream come true: their music is being heard and appreciated by a majority and they are actually making a living off of their talent. the only time i would be angry over an artist i like going mainstream is if they went off the fucking wall like justin bieber

  • @ratlover35 and now they have to listen to electronic music each and every day :)

  • @RianHeartattack why? does it make you feel special to like someone who nobody else likes?? it doesn't make you better than anyone to like bands nobody does, that's week.... i know 'cause i used to have that same pathetic attitude not long ago.

    PS: i still like "non mainstream" bands, i'm not proud about that any more and i enjoy when the bands i like succeed

  • @RianHeartattack Ugh, same here! I just feel like the band/singer made the songs just for me, but once they go mainstream... I don't feel so special.

  • I listened to this one first many many times.... Then found the robert smith one 1 song ago........ the robert smith one was a joke like literally i thought it was a joke!!!! this is how this song needs to be crystal castles knows wtf their doing.

  • @Tetseo YEAAH definetely boss the castles have it right .

  • ethan is the one who sings this one :O

  • that's sooo sad...and my ex-girlfriend made me hear this song for the first time... you can trealize how heartbracking was that day...

  • @jimmyburkeconway wow, bitch. (dislike)

  • I bet Platinum Blonde is happy to get a re-birth of there classic song. A royalty cheque is always good for a 80's band. Nice cover though , R.Smiths is real good also. unusual to hear him sing someonelses lyrics though..

  • that's a huge jew nose

  • @PsycoticPanda7 it's actually ethan singing! i know, i was shocked too haha

    they just heightened his voice~

  • i'm sorry but robert smith should be the only singer to this. EVER.

  • I love CC but robert smith just sounds deep i think they should collaborate more often.

  • @PsycoticPanda7 isnt it ethans voice on this track..

  • The Robert Smith version helped me to appreciate this version more. It made it more accessible, I think.

  • Portal turrets! =O .. 'Are you still there?'

  • @Mast3rh3nx the portal turrets scare me........... :(

  • @PneumonicHawk1 Crystal Castles scare me. x.x

  • @Mast3rh3nx I don't hate you.

  • @effeilensucre I don't blame you. I'm different.

  • I prefer the Smith version only because of when it gets to that loud point in the song that i don't kno wat its called or how to explain it.

  • GLaDOS.......

  • @TheMrJokelife

    sings, not things. (:

    I lul at anyone who thinks alice sings this song. ( other than live. )

  • @CanWeAllDream Uhh, your mom..

  • OMGZ I LOVE THIS BAND. Nothing beats driving down the interstate at 1am high on E well my bf is sucking me off listening to CC. Dance On.

  • Comment removed

  • @TimeForFunnz a/s/l?

  • @gibbsies Fuck yeah.

  • robert smith sucks donkey cawk

    alice all the way

  • Now, I've been a fan of The Cure my whole life (parents listen to it) and I think Robert Smith sounds soooo emo & whiny.... But this sounds like a chipmunk!! Wtf lol! This isn't singing... But this voice definitely matches the music a lot better.

  • REAL VERSION IS BY PLATINUM BLONDE. THIS CHIPMUNK VS SUKS ASS. ROB SMITH VS IS OKAY BUT JEEZ...THIS IN AN INSULT

  • @ wino001 Chipmunk version LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I hate how when I search for this song the Robert Smith version comes up. It sounds emo and just...stupid. I like listening to people who can actually sing, not talk through their songs sounding like their about to break down crying.

  • like the other version much more =p

  • This is a Platinum Blonde cover...search for it

  • I prefer the Robert Smith version. The production is boosted and the synth during the chorus just gives me the chills

  • @Alephmusic55 si la version de robert smith es insuperable
