[renataberczy]

Don't let it end...

[joskeeeee]

when chino started singing I just couldn't believe how perfect his voice suits robert's

[renataberczy]

Makes me think of a wandering ghost

[monsterhockey7]

This is probably how the Cure intended it to sound, Deftones funking rock.

[AnOldMember]

wow chino's voice sounds so smooth! this is the version of the b sides and rarities album :)

[kaylerpp]

wow...this is actually reallyyy...good. The voicals are great, almost Robert Smith worthy :)

[bravnat]

without a doubt my favourite cover by Deftones, they simply never disappoint, also gotta love The Cure ^^

[NhadzIsCured]

the legitimate cover of a Cure song...

[Emanny237]

What an excelent rendition to the cure. The Deftones kick so much ass!!

[rgsfcp21]

this takes me to another dimension

[THEUNHINGEDSANITY]

the girl at 0:59 and 2:07 is fucking sexy!!!!!!!!

[mazorcavil]

It is from MTV Icon tribute for The Cure.... freaking awesome!!!!

[mazorcavil]

It was from MTV Icon

[urljaks]

A show hosted by Marylin Manson, where Deftones play a Cure cover- coolest event ever.

[rawr32451]

what is the show called?

[malibumut]

I keep going back to this,, it is so full on addictive, far out, it's just the best cover Ever...!!

[jenibearlb]

beautiful!!! sends chills through my body...

[rawr32451]

where are they live at?

[bebu19777]

How sick do you have to be to click dislike??? LOVE IT!!!!!!

[m01up]

Huge fan of The Cure here. This rocks! So dark, so moody... Perfect!

[xXLazarus23Xx]

Chino covering a song by The Cure is the best thing ever!

[deftdrummer]

My favorite live defotones song ever! Totally pwned the cure with their own song! 

[247unavailable]

deftones+if only tonight=musical nirvana

[curefm2]

this the best the cure cover

[boxercr]

@curefm2 Without a doubt!

[scarecrowdark]

@curefm2

I agree with you

[malibumut]

Wish you had of played this at the BDO, you fully went off though, & it was so bloody HOT, am stoked to have seen you live at last! Thankyou.. xo :-)

[atomicinjun]

That's just an awesome cover. I've never been a fan of the Deftones but this could change all that. The attention to detail is what kills me. My favorite part 3:54.

[atomicinjun]

That's just an awesome cover. I've never been a fan of the Deftones but this could change all that. The attention to detail is what kills me.

[Eric21ND]

@atomicinjun

That's like saying you're not a fan of breathing in my book.

[josecahouse]

DEFTONES WIN! PERFECT!

[pollsayspaul]

Pure Sex Voice from Chino!!!!!!!!!!!

[lcvd1]

That's the power of The Cure influence, great job Deftones!

[magneteye]

The best Cure cover that night... amazing!

[DonCher]

@magneteye The only good cover that night, I'd say.

[StraightRazor99]

I watched this show and The Cure tapped their feet and politely endured most of their songs being mangled by the other bands. This was the only song that I saw them actually smiling and nodding along with. Robert Smith actually looked impressed.

[bddbjrsexy]

@StraightRazor99 I know, haha. I'm not sure if this is the same show, Robert looks different, but it made me think of the cover of Just Like Heaven AFI did, and the look on Robert's face during that was not a happy one.

Was that a run-on sentence?

[bigmike690069]

ive always wanted to bang the chick at 2:04 ... something about her hot goth azz :))

[bddbjrsexy]

@bigmike690069 Haha, the only hot goth chick at 2:04 I see is Abe. ;) Na, she's at 2:07.

[bigmike690069]

IF ONLY TONIGHT CHI WOULD WAKE FROM HIS SLEEP :(

[supercaliban]

i love the cover, but.. wtf with the girl with the orgasm?? xD

[marcellius1178]

Am I the only one who thinks The Cure's keyboardist looks like Jamie Lee Curtis when she gets older? Awesome cover

[knokkelman13]

would be interesting watch Carpathian forest performing their cover of A forest, but this is MTV, they doesn ´t like it, and MTV don ´t show black metal, anyway, good covers

[deftonesfan192]

Great cover, great camera angles, great vid...

[FupaTroopa77]

i dont even like the cure... but this is simply amazing

[shane61208]

THE dEFTONES have such amazing talent and chemistry , this song proves that and they will go down as one of the best of all time, PERIOD!

[91nickt]

This version is sick! love it!

[PyroclasticJoe]

Their cover of Duran Duran's Chauffer is also awesome, the Deftone's Rarities and B-Sides album is definitely worth getting.

[Sukakaa]

It's better than original version Cure.

[ElCoyotyto]

one of the best covers I've ever heard. it's tottaly a deftones song

[beforethree]

Really good cover, Deftones got good musical tastes (Cure, Cocteau Twins, Depeche mode, Smiths) :)

[hedlik]

@beforethree WHATT??

[mychemicalrahman]

@beforethree u forgot duran duran, brody. lol

[renataberczy]

@mychemicalrahman the chauffeur is an amazing cover

[malibumut]

71 Days and counting,  and I will see you live, YES, please play this, it will be fully appreciated.. xxoo ;-)

[Kundiot]

Whoops! there was Robert among the audience.

[diblaster]

I watched this MtV icon show, and deftones was the best band of that night. Blink 182 was also there, but you can't compere deftones' quality to blink 182. Deftones creates an epic environment and Chino's voice sings with real emotion feeling the music, the keyboards, the drums, bass, guitar make you feel like if you were high. Also they did not lose the cure's original touch. You can have still several orgasms with both versions.

[KeistasZmogelis]

Usually when I hear Chino sing live, i find him to be really lacking.

However, this time - perfect.

[AOCRkid]

@KeistasZmogelis it's the chorus effect. It's works really well with his voice

[amosthree]

I thought this would fail miserably! It was great.

[Arthounot]

@LandOfMutants The best cover i saw that evening, take care...

[malibumut]

Please, can you play this song at the Sydney BDO,, thank you. I'll be there, melting...

[opiet510]

its better than the damn cure version.

[Arthounot]

@opiet510 Well, it's how it'd meant to be, look at the Cure guys...... They want this.... :)

[tantruming]

This always makes me think of the Vertigo/DC comic, The Sandman.

[dunefall]

Could the women they zoom in on be any hotter?

[blaynestaleypro]

I like this version better.

[vondutch413]

@twochordcool basically everything they've ever put on a record is better than what you think is "good" you fail at life. good day sir.

[curefm2]

this is the best version,,,

[malibumut]

If only tonight we could make love..... and sleep after....

[twochordcool]

@Watermellin That's idiotic - it's harder - but not better.

[petergunz0087]

DEFTONES!

[sixandten]

love love love

[heathsousads]

BEST COVER EVER! Shitty quality tho. Search this up on google vids for best quality,! :D

[frankiensandra]

I first heard this song on the b sides and rarities cd and loved it, I dont know how but I heard from somewhere that that song was performed infront of the cure, and that it was theyre song. now that I'm youtubing and seeing all the coparisons between who does it better I have to comment. Robert smiths vocals does nothing for this song, and as far as I'm concerned this shit now belongs to the DEFTONES. I'm only being honest.

[behindyourtrouble]

@frankiensandra You're way off base my friend. I myself also first heard this song because of the deftones b-sides (and im very thankful), and I prefer this version as well, but all technicalities (and preferences) aside, this song will "always" belong to The Cure. I'm going to be honest to you in return, creating a song and covering one are totally different things, you'd know this the second you'd try to play an instrument and creating something yourself.

[twochordcool]

@frankiensandra and you're obviously a complete fucking idiot.

[sinkingpeople]

if Robert didnt like the cover, the only reason would be because he cant even play his own song that good.. hes probably the 1 dislike on the video

[freedommakesnoise]

@sinkingpeople lol

[twochordcool]

@sinkingpeople Just remember the origin of the song asshole.

[sinkingpeople]

@twochordcool im just saying.. he didnt look pleased.. and if he didnt like it. the only reason would be, he couldnt play it this good

[funisteinstahlbad]

cool

[gaith05]

RESPECT

[dirtyjezabell]

3.54... Robert is clearly loving this cover! amazing

[rtekbillabong]

Modern day Zeppelin. No one can touch the Deftones. They kickass and take names on everything they do.

[oiouchminalda]

Shame ...

[HeRaLd007]

half the crowd or even more doesn't know where the original came from

i'd bet on that

[PKP405]

For those of you who kept saying that smith wasn't impressed with any of the covers, look closely at 2:18 and he is definitely grinning from ear to ear! Excellent cover by an extraordinarily talented group of musicians!

[firehyp187]

@PKP405 that wasn't robert smith dumbass unless he had a sex change and shaved all his hair off into lesbian mode

[grousemaster]

@PKP405 Robert Smith at 3:55 - he didn't look all that impressed there or at the end but who's surprised about that.....

[newinfrance2001]

@PKP405 agree that this is an extraordinary cover of this song, but that is not Robert at 2:18, but on-again off-again keyboardist Roger O'Donnell.

But at 3:54, Robert does look pleased.

[pricha24]

...NOT the stones, NOT zepplin, NOT Sabbath, I'd like to see RS cover "fist" or "dai the flu" or "boys republic" or "change" or "xerces" and do HALF the quality performance that Deftones did on this song. in closing, RS is a hack and the Cure should be priveleged that a group as amazing as Deftones would cover their overrated music.

[pricha24]

to all of you who think this cover was not good because "noone like the cure will ever come along again" or "noone can ever do covers of the cure"...etc., etc. etc....this cover is UNREAL and if robert smith didn't like it he can eat a d$ck and so can everyone else who thinks that the cure are the end all be all...music progresses and RS prob didn't like it because it WAS THAT GOOD and his puffy/spider-haired ego won't let him deal with it...it's the friggin' cure people...

[twochordcool]

@pricha24 The Deftones don't have ONE ORIGINAL SONG that is NEARLY as good as this.

[tonyAJ420]

@twochordcool You obviously don't listen to the Deftones.

[TheMarsick]

brividi dappertutto..

[estrallaeyes]

i ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE CURE AND DEFTONES...EXCELLENT COVER..COMMING FROM A HUGE CURE FAN~!!!!

[hellyfornication]

nice try, but i prefer the original by the cure. on-one beats the voice of robert smith, but not a bad cover though.

[simionTheOne]

@hellyfornication

robert didn't seem impressed with any of the cover bands

except for placebo on different shows

but i couldn't agree more,

there's nothing close to the cure these days

nothin original or wathever :I

it's sad!

[machiasmadman]

@simionTheOne Robert Smith doesn't seem impressed with anything ever.

[twochordcool]

@simionTheOne Elbow are a lot different than the Cure, but they ARE great and they are still together. But the Cure blew me away for many many years and nothing makes me feel as excited about a band now as they did then.

[jamieslaght]

Deep love.

[sanjasany]

one of the best!

[dunefall]

If only tonight we could sleep

In a bed

made of flowers

If only tonight we could fall

In a deathless spell

If only tonight we could slide

Into deep black water

And breathe

And breathe..

[dunefall]

Then an angel would come

With burning eyes like stars

And bury us deep

In his velvet arms

And the rain would cry

As our faces slipped away

And the rain would cry

Don't let it end..

[jaymz81]

chino can do anything!!! skynard, smith, SADE'

[xxxxdeftonexxxx]

@jaymz81  Weezer

[TheChildofwind]

wonderful!!!

[chargermaniac]

Given how unique Robert Smith's voice is for the most part it makes covering Cure songs pretty hard. Chino's probably the only singer who can do this tune properly and sincerely.

[subliminalanger]

AND MOLKO!

[brandito1527]

Wow has any1 ever seen the video to rocket skates off their new album diamond eyes? Chino is getting skinny once again =)

[JAGDPANTHER20]

Cure s version sucks the cum out of my fuckstick compared to this deftone version!

[bienvida]

Where is this? Award show?

[gvague]

MTV Icon

[RENEDU2]

da Cure rulz

[TheChainHead]

gtwsfdewrtyqqoiytlmk

[EazyRun]

I love the dark, cool and weird atmosphere of this song... I feel weird when I hear this song. To me, it's like listening to Tool.

Deftones is such an amazing band! I love Chino's voice^^

The Cure are awesome, The Deftones are awesome, Marylin Manson is awesome, the atmosphere of this song is breathtaking! Wonderful masterpiece!

[DISCORDhardcore]

it is so hard to play some thing this big as cover, we bow to Sheer Terror and Deftones. Cheers!

[murrals]

@LandOfMutants

This was their second take. The first try didn't go so well. Just a little info for all.

[brandito1527]

Meh, sometimes second takes are the best ^^. Skindred used a second take for their music video for rat race and thats a good song. You know what they say....If at first you dont succeed try, & try again

[pounanni3100]

@murrals Thanks for your unwanted info...

[Aquileskaz]

Yeah awosome Performance...

[meepmeep69]

my favourite cover performance of all time! and sure the vocals are not similar to smiths, but the way chino does it for this song.... perfection!

[brandito1527]

lol is that marilyn manson? wtf

[chainsoar]

What exactly is "wtf" about Manson attending a tribute gig for the Cure?

[mrguano7]

The fact that in Trent reznor's humble words, he is a dopey clown..and especially in the beginning of this video he's being goofy about presenting another artist. Its hard to take him seriously after Golden Age of Grotesque, everything has been the quintessential crap from hot topic, and his music doesnt even add up to what he claims he is.

[chainsoar]

But...irrespective of that...he's a prominent Cure fan. Surely that's the important part here. Also I fail to see how he was being 'goofy about presenting another artist'.

And Trent Reznor has an ego the size of Russia.

[chemudas]

Trent Reznor has an ego the size of Russia. Yes.

And Manson too.

Thing is: one of them rules and the other sucks. Guess who.

[chainsoar]

Are we talking about your opinion or some sort of established rule? Because either way you're arrogant as fuck.

[chemudas]

Thanks! :)

[krut917]

the keyboards remind me of being in the water temple on Ocarina of Time

[malnurishedmacupial]

your right you know it sounds a bit like it

[sgipple]

@krut917 it totally does!

[TheRadicalStartover]

@krut917 yeah! another Zelda gamer :D

[IcarianX]

@krut917

me too!

[dmelle09]

@krut917 hahahaha your right

[lloydvallentine2]

@krut9 man you're right!!!

[EricStiven]

Not bad .......... the instrumentation is pretty much dead on but the vocals can't top Robert Smith .............. Good Job!

[bxymox]

I'm a gigantic cure fan, and I totally dig this cover.

[inidriahadraven]

..its a perfect cover..Deftones bring they own style to this song..and its sounds great..

[FreekEsther]

I love the Cure, but this version is even better!

I don't really Know the Deftones; is there also an album version of this?

[mjg651]

check out B-Sides and Rarities...its a collectiion unreleased songs and this song is on there

[FreekEsther]

Thnx!

[shitwizard]

Not really, it's on their B-sides album. Just taken from a live show unfortunately. They performed it when I saw them in Atlanta and it was amazing even though I got asked if I had any drugs on me about 4 times.

[Richybunique]

were The Cure there aswell??

[KillaAGC]

@Richybunique yes they were viewin from the VIP Balcony that they get for being honored

[Richybunique]

i know sorry when the video got more in i seen robert smith and co viewing it. thanks anyway. sick cover by Dtones tho

[casiokilltoy]

i wonder what the guys from The Cure were thinking of this cover.

[Ajaw8]

stupid introducer acts too much

[sidiqmk]

would you expect any less from Marilyn Manson?

[Ajaw8]

now that i know its mm i change my thoughts,but i guess i shouldnt:p

[seaptown]

i love he original but for me this version trumps it. only two songs really beat their originals. this and no quarter by tool.

[busaj]

I don't often say this in music, but in my opinion, this cover is better than the original. Amazing stuff here. They seemed to add just enough in the right areas to truly bring out the eery nature of this song. Extra heavy bass, a little more distortion, and you have perfection. I can't stop listening to this. I won't even start on Chino's voice.

[cantatt62]

il y a des reprises sans grand intérét. celle ci fait partie des exceptions.. merci aux deftones.

[XXXjuqinctylkjnmswXX]

If you don't hear brilliance here, you're umm...tonedef.

[havokbrockley]

i fucking love this song, but the cures version is the best

[alukauzpurnis]

Great job playin the synth with one finger, dude.

[1puchu]

:D LOL

[z0z0bra]

SKILLZ

[bxymox]

gone down-hill becuase he introduces a band he idolized when he was younger? You're obviously a twat of epic proportions.

[MJKsFan]

Flawless

[daveisaretard]

agreed
