if you want to understand why people hated it, then look up the original one by the cure. this one sounds AFWUL. A letter to elise is supposed to be a sweet happy cute song, and this is disorientated and rock version, ugh.
@80smusicisawesome there isnt any point in doing a cover if you make it sound exactly the same as the original. blink took the song and made it their own, which is a totally different style, that a lot of cure fans might not like or appreciate.
I understand what you're saying about looking up the original version. This is one of The Cure's most beautiful, powerful, and emotional songs and Blink 182's version seems to have washed it out, if you will. But your description of "A letter to Elise" being a sweet happy cute song... Sweet happy and cute?! Wow, that is NOT the way I would describe it. It's not sweet, it's beautifully melancholic . It's not happy, it's sad. And cute, really? I don't know...
If you like punk, with an accoustic twist check out my side project (apart from my rock band Fidgety) I post out accoustic punkpop songs with lots of energy and catchy riffs..
I hope youll check out my channel and let me know what you think!
hey, my name is Elise!!!! Thumbs up if i have a cool name!!!@@#•938292839238239889!*(@*(*@!*(!*(!*(!!*(! o btw those random numbers are my phone number, im super cute, call me guys! (or girls, i go both ways, kind of like 2 lane highway)
This is Robert Smiths favorite cover of his work. Watch the live video where he smiles.. further more after he heard this he called blink and worked with them on a song called all of this... if its good enough to impress him its not crap.. unless your opinion some how out weighs that of an icon who forever changed music.. stupid shit
@akerswi well seeing you just made up your thought of him calling blink AFTER this cover to work with them on All of This is false, no one should listen to you.
this performance is way after the recording of their self-titled album, the album with All of This on it. dumb ass.
Holy shit, I used to listen to Blink about 10 years ago, when I was twelve. I just found out they were fans of The Cure, a band I currently listen to...that's . awesome.
I love Blink. But this is a poor cover! Sorry guys. Maybe it's because I'm in love with the Cure, I dunno. But the old school alternative era really doesn't suit Blink. Sorry to anyone who disagrees.
@jowe182 dude, buddha and cheshire cat are AWESOME! u cant compare them to their "new" stuff! i also think that dude ranch is better than all they have yet. love cure love blink!
@F3FisGoodforYou you sir need to calm yourself. just because we like different music should not mean we should be obliterated. as for pollution, your hate pollutes this planet far more than anything else. dont hate masterbait then you wont feel so angry all the time :)
@F3FisGoodforYou First of all, this was played at a tribute show for the Cure. They were there, so why would they sue them? Also, Robert Smith loves this cover, but I guess we all have our own opinions. I love this cover, it's great.
You people, who like this SHIT should be OBLITERATED. You just pollute this planet with you sound waste, I can express how shitty this is, even worse than Nine Inch Nails and shit. cum bags !
@piraloumagus ..If Naninchnaile would be such a great band they would be on MTV, on the radio like NRJ and they would play with the Black Eye Peas or Lady Gaga, and guess what they're not !... so I guess they're not that great... same comment can be made about Radiohead or Bjork, really overrated so called artists (and Bjork isn't that cute anyway).
@F3FisGoodforYou@F3FisGoodforYou yeah well... Justin Beaver is the very, very best and I want to have his babies. and... I have to admit that everything is worse than Nine Inch Nails...except Justin Beaver. and Jordy.
@whpriol1 while i do agree that heroin users are stupid ( there are much safer drugs with better highs) replying to a comment that is a year old is also stupid.
@benbinner95 woahwoah im a huge blink fan and im british. why insult? who said the cure are a stereotype,their amazing songwriters and if they hadnt been around neither would blink so take some time to think what your saying, k?
I didn't really like it before and it's one of those names you can never find in songs, so when i found this i was so happy, plus it's by the cure and covered by blink 182...someone PINCH ME!! :D
OMGG thats awesome!!! i used to not like my name, but now i kinda enjoy its uniqueness. I used to get frusturated because i could never find my name on the dollar store pencils as a kid, hahaha.
nice try, but I don´t like it. They destroyed the song, it has no feeling
