Joy Division - Gods of music The Cure - Gods of music Love Will Tear Us Apart = Thank you Robert and crew for covering such a beautiful song

I like it. Robert Smith has just enough anguish in his voice to convince me. It doesn't beat the original, but I don't think that's the intention. The further we get from Ian's passing, the more it's crystalised just what a GIANT he was in the world of music. This is another tribute.

I think this was a nicely done tribute. Way back in the day Joy Division opened up for The Cure in a small venue. That night should have been taped. Would love to be able to get that show on a DVD

I love the vocals here and the emotion is there, they sound like they mean it. But the magic is still missing, and I don't think anyone will be able to pull that off. Ever.

jesus, this is a great version of the classic joy division song. a great version! i can't stop playing it!!

I absolutely love this cover. Love both bands equally. Both Smith & Curtis are (were) genius. ;)

@johnnyswitchblade 16 years ago

This is a good cover because The Cure knows how to make amazing music, and I think they may be one of the only bands who could pull this song off without turning it into something it's not...Most bands would stray away from the source material, but this version is very faithful to the original. Awesome.

This is so super ultra awesome i'm exploding every second when i'm listening this!! My favourite band covering my other favourite band's song!

@shrapnel6666 14 years ago

You are exactly right. I believe that only Ian could ever pull his songs off. R.I.P Ian.

to everyone saying "leave joy division alone" or "this is so much better than the original," this song and this performance... this is someone's fucking LIVELIHOOD we are talking about! this is a well-executed and heartfelt cover of an amazing song. why must we compare the performances and pick it apart?

@lisam1987 11 years ago

So true! I can't help but see the similarities between the two bands. Joy Division is an extremely underrated band in terms of their legacy to inspire future musicians.
