Same! The Cure made their way onto my turntable and into my heart circa 1983-84. Of course, information was so much more limited in those days, especially in small town USA. If the record store in the larger small town didn’t have it, did it really exist?
Robert Smith is one of the most underrated British artists of all time. 40 years of beautiful music that has stayed with me throughout my life. “Just Like Heaven” was my first dance at my wedding (I begged and actually got my way!)
@@ucantcompare2U2 Yeah, also Disintegration has been called one of the best albums of the 80's many times (by music critics) so I don't get where "underrated" came from.
When I saw the title I thought, "of course, the internet is confusing Joy Division with The Cure again". Then I heard Robert Smith's voice and realize they had actually covered this song.
The cure were supported by joy division at a pub in London on December 28th 1978 to a crowd of only 30-40 people which left both bands disappointed by the venue and money they got from it, later that night, on the way home to Manchester, Ian Curtis had his first ever seizure and was clinically diagnosed with epilepsy, a month later. Joy division became a big influence for the cure and Robert Smith and this cover feels like a tribute to them
joy division supported the cure in london in march 4th of 1979 so such event didn't happen that way. the gig you were referring to was on december the 27th, to only 30 people, and on the way back home, ian had his first recorded seizure. although i have to admit, that version of the events would make this cover feel way more haunting...
Not to mention that the cure practically followed new orders lead once they emerged from joy divisions ashes. Two(technically three) incredible bands reflecting and building upon each other
Any cover of this song is a show of respect. Like it or don’t. Ian was the pioneer of this awesome shit we listen to. “Something so good won’t function no more”
This is what a cover should be: recognizable as the original, but with the band placing their own flare on it. The Cure pays this reverence to the magic of Joy Division. Now if they could cover Joy Division's "In A Lonely Place" ... that would be a spectacle to behold :-)
Bush's cover of In A Lonely Place on The Crow 2 soundtrack is fairly good. But everyone likes different things because I personally didn't think this Cure cover was all that good.
If a “cover” sounds the same as the original what’s the point? There are some brilliant covers out there, I’m like you, make it sound like the original but make it your own. In this case nobody can mimic Joy Division apart from New Order so Fat Bob does his thing with great success. However Ciccone Youth doing “Into the Groovey” leaves me wondering WTF. “Just Can’t Get Enough” by Taste of Sugar, I mean I remember dancing to that. I often ask myself why.
Dont have to be recogniseable. Once upon a dream sounds different but slaps. I'm done with ukulele covers bro they all sound the same, and keeping the og sound is meh too

Not really a Cure fan, but this cover is very good indeed. The softer vocals offer a different perspective and the more dub-like bass line is pretty interesting, too!
I am a Joy Divison fan. And a The Cure fan. I love both versions and I consider them completely different songs because each band has their own style and they keep it on the music.
Just seen The Cure at Glasgow for the first (and probably the last time ever) on Friday. Not only that, just noticed a cover of them singing my top song in all the world in a cover. Happy days!
No he visto ningún comentario en español, pero no importa...También desconocía de este cover, pero me parece genial que The Cure se lo haya hecho, suena bien, aunque el clásico será el clásico siempre. Increíble sorpresa la que me lleve!!!!
An instrumental version of this played just after the first time I ever fooled around with my late husband, new years eve 2011 on Chris Liebing's CLR podcast. I lost him to cancer on Jan 23 2022. It's really a challenge to get through this song without tears in my eyes but I listen to it all the time, can't help myself.
@@w.iraheta3769 it was absolutely incredible, my favourite band of all time is Nine Inch Nails and they do an amazing cover of Joy Divisions Dead Souls, with was is on the soundtrack for The Crow, that soundtrack also features my favourite Cure song -Burn.
The Cure was my favorite band in high school in the 80s and Love Will Tear Us Apart is one of my all time favorite songs…. I wish I knew about this cover years ago.. oh well now I know.
Tremenda versión de una tremenda canción, creo que Robert Smith admiraba a Ian Curtis y de esta forma lo homenajea, THE CURE es la mejor banda de la historia
Ian was shafted by fate. The man was leading a popular band then BAM! the epilepsy gets so bad that the drums would set it off. That'd be Hell. I'd want to kill myself too, so I ciuldask God if I was Hitler in my past life to have my dream come to life and then have it taken away, just barely out of reach.
This is what Morrissey hears in his nightmares
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Sheila Bow 😂😂
IM LAUGHING SO HARD XDDD
Morrissey listened to this once, then tried to slit his wrists. He failed miserably.
And he smells bacon.
This is incredible! Being an old school Cure fan , I can not believe that I have have never heard this before. Humbled

Ditto...seeing this surprised me, I love RUclips ❤️!
What?!!!! I was a fan of both the Cure and Joy Division in the 80's, and I didn't know about this cover!!!
That's why I'm still sceptical if it's real. Hmmmm
All the same. And I'm here only now !....
@zephyra Wow, that's a story!
@zephyra sounds amazing
Fuck me! I’ve been a fan for 60+ years. I’m hear this for you first time tonight Really good. Still has the essential components. Thanks Uncle Bob!
Robert Smith is one of the most underrated British artists of all time. 40 years of beautiful music that has stayed with me throughout my life. “Just Like Heaven” was my first dance at my wedding (I begged and actually got my way!)
You have good taste. Pearl Jam, Joy Division, the Cure.
Thank you my friend.
Disintegration is my favorite song ever for all my types of mood
Just got into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Not too underrated. Even voiced a cameo on South Park! MEGA STRIESAND
@@ucantcompare2U2 Yeah, also Disintegration has been called one of the best albums of the 80's many times (by music critics) so I don't get where "underrated" came from.
this version sounds like it’s a sad fact that’s already happened whereas the original sounds more like an unfortunate possibility
Absolutely agree. Had a lump in my throat listening to this 🥃🥃🥃
Joy Division: Love Will Tear Us Apart
The Cure: Love Has Torn Us Apart
That's a brilliant way to put it. I totally agree
Astute observation 💙
LOVE THIS SONG
R.I.P Ian Curtis
gllng could ve chose a different route
He was so talented:(
666 like i’m
May 18. The same day as my moms. I'm still getting used to that.
@Gahan2Vox edgy, but true
Only The Cure could cover this
Graham Charnley Lol you should hear Dave Gahan version (Depeche Mode) maybe you will change your opinion.
+Lily Araujo yes . problem still , some will have to take it allegorically >.>
+Lily Araujo you are so right!
+Graham Charnley david bowie covered it pretty well
+NEXOS Sadly not him, just a very bad fake. Even Hooky came out and said it.
Damn, I guess 12 years is better than never finding this masterpiece.
Long live Joy Division, Long live The Cure.
Unfortunately, the life of Joy Divison, Who knows they can be made with Ian
Long live Ian Curtis.
👌
When I saw the title I thought, "of course, the internet is confusing Joy Division with The Cure again". Then I heard Robert Smith's voice and realize they had actually covered this song.
Same for me. Like it sounded so weird till I heard his astonishing voice
Yes, indeed. It looks too good to be true.
When I first came across this I immediately thought of that meme that reads: "Morrisey of Joy Division" and shows a picture of Robert Smith.
Morrisey?come fate a scambiare Robert smith con morrisey
Can't deny The Cure made a good cover. But the original has no comparation. This song is Ian Curtis, and only him.
I agree.
I mean, what about Stephen Morris, Peter Hook and Bernard Sumner? LOL
And Stephen Morris--no one else could play that drum part; The Cure do not even try here
ruclips.net/video/LZRTD9R_i74/видео.html maybe i'm just getting old but this is sublime cover.
*comparison but yeah.

Well, the Cure uses a lot of drums

Because of this comment i can't take the cover seriously.. Damn you

This makes me so happy. Joy Division and The Cure are my fav bands, and it makes me happy that at least The Cure covered a song by Joy Division
Joy Division's "Love Will Tear Us Apart" + The Cure is PERFECTION to me
Melinda Stubleva so close to me
Such an incredibly beautiful tribute to the original. I can't hear this enough.
this was done live on an australian radio show - hence the slightly iffy sound quality
Good to know. I thought it sounded a bit flat.
When? What year?
It almost improves it tbh 0_0
That iffy quality makes the song so much more raw
I'm not trying to be over dramatic but this cover changed my life
Cheena Blain great cover
Cheena Blain
Blimey!
Imagine if you were trying to be over-dramatic😳
Oh same, I'm dying
Cheena Blain love the Cure, but this is not as good as the original.
try getting out a bit more.
Two beautiful souls of Ian Curtis and Robert Smith coming together.❤️
dancing in paradise probably naked^^
That bass growl with chorus. Fantastic.
i cant stop listening to this
One of the best British music cover welldone cure 👌, simple
One of my favorite bands covered one of my favorite songs from another one of my favorite bands.
Robert covered it his way, he wasn't trying to out do Ian......great cover!
everything Robert Smith touches turns into gold.
I think this is my favorite cover of this song. Feels like an actual interpretation than imitation
Totally agree
"..an interpretation than imitation.." that's the most perfect way to describe what a cover should be.
Versión by Cienfuegos (1995) 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷
The Cure tocando Joy Divison? Não poderia ser melhor! Perfeito!!
***** que deliciaaaaa
Pois é, feliz q tem muitos brasileiros que curte um som boom.
Deliciosoooooo
Achei melhor que o Joy Division

amazing bands, amazing voices, amazing instrumentals, amazing song
Im south african and both bands were big here in the 80s.Im a huge fan of both and allways will be

Great cover!! To a great band!! Only The cure could do it.
One of my fave song from Ian Curtis.. joy division
Incredible Robert, just the best!
sounds like my OCD and my depression finally getting along to create something I can enjoy
cure represents the depression , joy division the OCD
@@levi-homerholy shit why is this SO accurate??
This is really special. I had no idea that this existed!!
me neither!!!! How did i only discover this last week??

I feel so fortunate to have heard this.
best cover of this song. naturally it's the cure
I wish I knew this existed years ago. About to listen on repeat ❤️
Absolutely beautiful 🌹
One of the best cover that i listenned, thank you Robert. Long life to Ian Curtis
if this is not about love why it sounds so lovely

such a great song...love it in every version...

how much is today in years?
You are an artist.
Me too!
Simply fabulous!
the cure's & depeche mode's versions were done with a lot of love & respect for ian curtis
This is magic, this is beautiful
Joy Division's "Love Will Tear Us Apart" + The Cure is PERFECTION to me
R.I.P Ian Curtis
Sounds like triumph. So much heart and emotion. Beautiful.
Thanks and thanks again, for my love who was fan of The Cure and Joy D. May he be peacefull now,little angel.
THIS IS BEAUTIFUL
The only cover out there that actually does the song and joy division justice
Great rendition and really suits Robert's voice.
I DIDNT KNOW THIS EXISTED. MY LIFE HAS CHANGED. THIS IS THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS

So beautiful!
I cannot believe anything this perfect could exist.

Love will tear us apart....sad story if only he held on a little longer to see life get better... its tragic...love will tear us apart
Ian was bipolar. Without proper treatment, bipolar disorder will kill you no matter how great your life gets.
Tragic is right.. This song always makes me feel a bit of that sadness.
@Elijah M No he had depression and seizures. Him being bipolar is pure speculation because of his mood swings.
Ian was shafted by fate. The man was leading a popular band then BAM! the epilepsy gets so bad that the drums would set it off. That'd be Hell. I'd want to kill myself too, so I ciuldask God if I was Hitler in my past life to have my dream come to life and then have it taken away, just barely out of reach.
