I saw Sixx:A.M. a few years back and I prayed so hard they would play this. When they did, the tears, goosebumps and all emotion just poured out. No band that I've ever seen had ever done that to me in my life. DJ was so friendly, he came over to the crowd outside prior to performing. Signed autographs, took pictures with fans. Just a sweet human being with a love for not only his music, but performing for fans and seeing the reactions on our faces. He's just an amazing Man, reason he's well loved.
Everything about this cover is amazing. My favorite part is when Nikki Sixx smiles at the end. I feel like he loves what he does and he knows they just nailed it. \m/
Damn right!!Hell I thought I was the only one that thought that & it is very cool as well there is a group of people gathered right in front of him with cameras & yes I loved that look like "damn right we just killed that song & rocked it the hell out!!!
Not sure what to think. Sixx:A.M shows TREMENDOUS versatality in covering an 80s ballad, turning into one kick-ass power ballad. To call it unique is as best as can be done. They took a song that everyone from the 80s knows, added their own flavor, put a shit-ton of energy into it, and absolutely OWNED their cover. I've listed to covers by Ziggy Marley, Deftones, Scorpions, and Sixx:A.M. - each one done in the performers individual style, but this one is so much more. Hope to see them on tour sometime. MASSIVE....just MASSIVE!
This is perfection!!!! Such a fantastic blend of the original and SIxx AM's flair!!! I love how each member stay true to themselves and they all blend so well together!!! I am truly in LOVE with this band!!! I own all of their albums, a ton of Ashba Clothing and will be meeting DJ in Vegas in September!!!!
And I agree and right now Axl Rose and guns n' roses are having fun but yet everybody puts them down for it. They're not allowed to have fun they're only allowed to put out loud ear piercing grinding vocals. Everybody that complains about his Mickey mouse voice ought to look up some of the other songs that he does within his register that is absolutely phenomenal. I really liked when DJ was with Guns and roses he gave it a flare that it did not have. Ashba is definitely one of a kind as is my slash but that is open to interpretation lately. For somebody so pro he's making a lot of mistakes for even the untrained ear. This band is lovely but it's just a little too slow for me. And Sixx looks shell shocked, not happy shell shocked. Stoned almost. So this is just how I see it I'm not saying that this is how it is I'm sure things are different than what I interpret. I also seem to see a lot of similarities between ashba and Slash. The hat, the tattooing on the stomach, and most definitely mannerisms all of a sudden is exact same thing on both slash and Ashbad. Is one trying to be the other and or vice versa?
I was at this concert itself. iHeart theatre in Burbank CA (old Jay Leno studio). Was an amazing concert. I gained a lot of respect for Nikki Sixx that night. He's a good bass player.
I love Sixx A.M. 's unique cover of, Drive. They are a very versatile band, where they do hard rock, more melodic songs, etc. This is a SUPERGROUP if l ever heard one. I pray l get the chance to see them live when their new double album and 2 year tour starts . 2016 ps going to rock.
I think Mr. Sixx's look at the end shows that unexplainable natural high that a performer gets perhaps bewilderment, a temporary good misunderstanding of what is happening....Boyz did good....fantastic service.....Thank you.....😀
@Angelina Y'all are the damn best. I'm honored to have the kind of support that you show me, thank you. How are you doing it is nice meeting you here btw
If they would have done the studio cover more like this it would not have been an over produced piece of garbage. Great going guys, still showing that even though the older songs were not written to ever do live you are great enough to do just that. ROCK IT
@Alicia Y'all are the damn best. I'm honored to have the kind of support that you show me, thank you. How are you doing it is nice meeting you here btw
So this song has been popping up in my mind when I'm sad and blue! But I thought I was clicking on this bands new song that I just discovered, a longer version so imagine my surprise when they were covering Drive, the one that crops up in my head and which I loved in the 80's...The "Universe" listens❣️
Nikki looks like he,s captured by the band that he created ... The 'Sixx - Man' looks like he's saying, "this is what I wanted in a band"!' A look of achievement!!!
I don't know I can't get the rock and roll sense with this singer and slow music. I am sorry and it's not open for people to attack me I just tried it out and I cannot feel it. It has no edge, it went soft.
Really loving this remake of cars, but even more. Love watching bands play especially when you feel it in your heart and gut. How I wished I could be so gifted. Never heard of this group before, but sure am enjoying it. Ty for sharing!
@Denise Y'all are the damn best. I'm honored to have the kind of support that you show me, thank you. How are you doing it is nice meeting you here btw
Love this, it is ORRsome that this song still gets re invented after all these decades and this version is really amazing, rocking it out and yet also somehow full of feel, I would like to think Benjamin Orr would be happy to hear this version, thanks so much for this :) Warmest regards from Tasmania, Tia Murrell
Love all the work Sixx am has done. Not one bad tune. Just wish they would have made more albums. They all are so talented and amazing. Love these guys. Keep rock and roll alive. Please get back together and, even if it's all cover songs, I'm good with that.
😔😔😪... Je ne peux rien faire juste laisser cette tristesse me consumer. Et ne peux m'arrêter de penser à lui à nous et cette musique qu'il m'avait fait découvrir... Il est tard je suis hantée par l'amour que je lui porte et les paroles de cette musique...
starting the new year with this song. really, it's 1 January 2022. 7 AM. actually I wanted to play this at 6 AM. that would be something. stay safe, stay healthy folks ...
Now I am imagining an alive Benjamin Orr joining the band and lending his great baritone voice to harmonies on this song, and let me tell you, in my head IT SOUNDS AWESOME!!!
Damn. Never been a six a.m. fan but shit dude that was one of the absolute best covers in the history of covers. Great great job boys great job indeed......
@Bernadette Y'all are the damn best. I'm honored to have the kind of support that you show me, thank you. How are you doing it is nice meeting you here btw
The face on Sixx at the end says it all that performance was on freaking point!!
Sixx Am is hands down the most talented band.Nikki combined 3 musical geniuses and made true greatness.
Right there at the end is when Nikki says I fucking did it!!?
hell to the yeah on that one...i totally agree!!!!
That was beautiful, such a touching song, I used to sing drive with my band it got emotional for me because I was a fan nice job sixx Am
And one of the underrated
I’ve only heard this song but that guitarist is pretty average.
This is how you realize that they're great doing live performance...
Sixx A.M thank you for keeping rock n' roll alive!
James Michael's vocals are fantastic! Everything about this live version is amazing. I love Nikki's satisfied grin at the end!
He hasn't been this happy in years. No more drink and drug addiction, just great music with James and DJ.
That grin is the best!
@@StephenThickett 1
Love that smirk!
Nikki knows how cool he is 😎
I want this band to reunite so damn bad!! 🤘
Me too ❤

The guys will be working on new material real soon. Praying for a UK tour.
This song version is perfection.
I know this post was a while ago but have you checked out ASHBA's solo stuff?? What a talent!
@@wishiwasthere actually I have. I can also remember when he was with GNR for a stint.
i just love Sixx am. especially the lead singer. his smile is infectious. He is so hot!!
Wow, I just love the emotion they put into their 🎶

DJ ASHBA Need I say more ?
I love the way they put their spin on this cover of Drive. I love James Michael and Sixx A.M.
I really love this version and DJ Ashba is epic. I love when you see band members having fun :)
And I agree and right now Axl Rose and guns n' roses are having fun but yet everybody puts them down for it. They're not allowed to have fun they're only allowed to put out loud ear piercing grinding vocals.

Love this version....love the Cars one too but Sixx AM upped the ante....damn!
Definitely a kickass cover! I like this one better than the original.
I love Sixx A.M. 's unique cover of, Drive. They are a very versatile band, where they do hard rock, more melodic songs, etc. This is a SUPERGROUP if l ever heard one. I pray l get the chance to see them live when their new double album and 2 year tour starts . 2016 ps going to rock.
+Carrie Mahoney I agree. I have this feeling that the new album might be the highlight of 2016.
Carrie Mahoney they're amazing live. got a pick from Nikki Sixx!
Carrie Mahoney completely agree with you. Absolutely awesome band
Your absolutely correct!!
What a dedication to the CARS and Benjamin Orr, I like this, Im a huge fan of the CARS and Motley Crue
This is a great song and I love how Sixx A.M. made it their own!
I think Mr. Sixx's look at the end shows that unexplainable natural high that a performer gets perhaps bewilderment, a temporary good misunderstanding of what is happening....Boyz did good....fantastic service.....Thank you.....😀
I jus ❤tis song by Te Cars' awesome cover wit 'Rock twist ' love it🤘

Such a beautiful guitar solo ❤
this version is amazing. dj ashba is great!
Pure heart, deep soul, I adore you guys all! Cheers To You the Music is Beautiful! :)
I think dj ashba is a genius along with Steve Stevens and Slash.
@@williamanacker5571 I DO SHARE the same opinion.
this is the Home Sweet Home of SixxAM
Fuck yes!!!
Yeppers!!!
In case you did not know; «Drive» is a song from 1984 by a band called The Cars.
Fkn Awesome, the way they played this great back in the day hit!!!!!!!
If they would have done the studio cover more like this it would not have been an over produced piece of garbage. Great going guys, still showing that even though the older songs were not written to ever do live you are great enough to do just that. ROCK IT
Goosebumps!!!! Geez what a great band. I started listening for Nikki, but the whole band kept me all these years. Amazing guys, amazing 🖤
This song is so money. I probably already commented the last time I swooned, but I am just wanting to clarify that this song is PERFECTION!
@Alicia Y'all are the damn best. I'm honored to have the kind of support that you show me, thank you. How are you doing it is nice meeting you here btw
Beautiful Song Love SixxA.M
Huge Cars fan and this version is nothing short of awesome. First listen and I am hooked. Should have gotten radio play.
Just discovered this band, and WOW, the vocals are out of this world! Always love Nikki whatever band he's in.
Such a good cover and such a great live version
Incredible how the live performance is much, much, much better than the studio one
still listening to this in 2021
Why so perfect? Jesus, saved me!! I can't stop to hear this!! OH GOD OH GOD
I love everything about this song forever ♥️ ♥️

I just hope they will work together again... :'(
