The only thing that probably would have topped it for Mark would be Robert Smith dancing in front of him while he played his song Josie on their last tour before splitting 😂
But I checked out your channel, so I know where you're coming from. 15 years ago I was your age and had just learned how to play Dammit and thought Tom was tight, so I feel ya dawg.
I found the CoCatalog (copyright office) listing for it years ago, and the notes on the listing stated it was a "Main Mix", which in the music industry denotes a studio version.
Nah they probably would've sounded more like Angels and Airwaves. That's what Tom thought they would've done next after untitled. Hell, in the 2003-04 concerts, before Tom starts playing 'down', Tom plays a riff that sounds just like something that would be used for AVA lol.
tbh I reckon neighbourhoods would've been their sound after this anyway. In the mtv album launch you can hear tom play the riff from one of the neighbourhoods songs in there
This is the direction i wish blink stayed with and evolved into what they're making today. This sound with all the passion here would sound incredible.
They would’ve ended sounding like Neighborhoods regardless, which I don’t care. I love Neighborhoods, and California is great, but I would give it up for another album like it
RJAWolfe 07 They both loved the Descendents / All who were the biggest influences for early blink, but Mark's favorite band is the Cure and they shaped his music taste. He might not have ever played bass if it wasn't for the Cure, especially considering the first song he learned was A Forest.
this was a cover done the right way. blink made it their own. every other band just tried to sound as much like the cure as they could. most bands that play bars every night can sound like someone else, thats not all that impressive. kudos to blink for being blink.
2004. I was 15 and saw this live on German TV. I never thought I would understand this song. 2007 I fell in love and she loved me. Until 2017 when she left me. Now I am 34 and it is 2024. Still love her. Always will do. Missing the early 2000s. Life was hard but true. So was love.
This performance is perfect. It might suck to some people but this is 100% what blink was in 2003/2004. Just high energy blink having fun and making it their own...knowing that a large amount of Cure fans probably won't like it. Robert obviously sees it in the right way and likes it a lot, which is awesome. He did sing an entire song on their self-titled record and he thought that record was really good!
I've been a fan of Blink since the 90s. Out of all the albums, all the songs - This is my favorite song I've ever heard them do. Best rendition of this Cure song, by far.
182182alex wow, i don't even remember this haha! this reply just popped up when I was browsing. it's interesting how much you can change in 3 years, I probably haven't even listened to Blink in like a year. even though they used be huge Idols of mine. thanks for the blast from the past! :)
Props to blink for putting their own spin on this. I felt like this was the only performance during this thing were Robert Smith didn't look completely bored.
I love how raw this version is. The energy is what drives this. It's really cool. The beautiful sadness is what makes the original Cure version so great, and it truly is wonderful as well. I thoroughly enjoy both versions, and will listen to one or the other depending on what kind of mood I'm in. Thank you, Robert Smith, for writing such a wonderful song.
This is how a cover should be - staying true to the band's style that's playing it, while still playing the recognizable chords and singing the right melody
This performance is so damn good and underrated!! Blink was never better than this period after they released the self titled album. That album was pure master piece and as a teenager it took me a couple listens to really buy into the new record bc I wanted take off your pants and jacket and enema sounding blink. I quickly got over that and that it became my favorite and it has aged like a fine wine into my early thirties! This cover in front of the cure is just an added bonus to that awesome sound they created for that album along with Not Now!
I’ve always wondered about Not Now. It was on my Untitled album when I was 10 or 11 which was when I first got into them. So I never knew that it was only on the greatest hits for some people. It’s always been one of my fav blink songs
Lyrics: Oh Elise it doesn't matter what you say I just can't stay here every yesterday Like keep on acting out the same The way we act out Every way to smile Forget And make-believe we never needed Any more than this Any more than this Oh Elise it doesn't matter what you do I know I'll never really get inside of you To make your eyes catch fire The way they should The way the blue could pull me in If they only would If they only would At least I'd lose this sense of sensing something else That hides away But you and me, we're worlds apart With aching looks and breaking hearts And all the plans your hands can make Oh I just take as much as you can throw And then I throw it all away Oh I throw it all away Like throwing faces at the sky Like throwing arms round Yesterday I stood and stared Wide-eyed in front of you And the face I saw looked back The way I wanted to But I just can't hide my tears away The way you do Elise... believe I never wanted this I thought this time I'd keep all of my promises I thought you were the girl always dreamed about But I let the dream go And the promises broke And the make-believe ran out... Oh Elise It doesn't matter what you say I just can't stay here every yesterday Like keep on acting out the same The way we act out Every way to smile Forget And make-believe we never needed Any more than this Any more than this And every time I try to pick it up Like falling sand As fast as I pick it up It runs away through my clutching hands But there's nothing else I can really do There's nothing else I can really do There's nothing else I can really do At all...
Still remember when I watched it on tv.. Back when mtv was good and we didn't have all this Facebook/phone apps and "everything is accessible" way of life
I remember watching this entire show and how they showed a clip of Robert Smith telling how he did a song with Blink for their album (All Of This) and how his friends said he was nuts for even thinking about the idea. I guess alot of ppl didn't take Blink seriously back then because of their poop jokes and songs about blowjobs. That self titled album is still their masterpiece. I mean they've matured a little from the poop and blowjob songs, sounded like their favorite 80's bands yet still hadn't lost their energy of previous albums.
i even think that song is about as good as it gets meshing the cure and blink together, they really did a stellar job in creating a song that would fit the cure style and that wouldn't lose blink's essence
Mark and Tom are huge cure fans and a lot of what started Blink-182 was The Cure's influence. I could see the try-hard in Mark and TONS of energy from Tom. Travis is BEASTING IT as always and those small nods from Robert Smith during the performance must be such a huge honor and bucket list check from each band member. Damn what a great performance and cover. And blink-182 being intro'd by Marilyn Manson himself? shit. wow. Never thought i'd see the day.
this songs played in the moment Tom exploring guitar effects, he had playing much with phazer, delay and more, if you watch closely during 2003-2005 he had adding some of that guitar effects to blink songs
The first time i listen to blink 182 is 14 years ago and with them they become my favourite band of all time. I thought i know every song and every cover but this moment i see this video for the first time ^^ Awesome !!!!!!!!!
I never forget about dis song cuz of blink 182 made it darker n so fckn dope.. i feel like it just happened yesterday, i wanna get back in dis era 😢 blink182lifeforlife
To me, this is Blink-182's best live performance ever. It's slightly better than the Pepsi Smash "I Miss You," which is weird because "A Letter To Elise" isn't even a Blink song. If I remember correctly, the band rehearsed religiously ahead of the performance to give Robert Smith and the gang a good impression, and give justice to the song. Blink-182 rarely rehearsed. After all, they're a punk rock band. It's also great that they decided to give Mark all the vocals here. Tom would've fucked it up with his voice. At least he got to concentrate on his absolutely brilliant guitar work here. And Mark's voice is obviously closer to that of Robert Smith compared to Tom. Absolutely grand tribute and performance by the band.
It’s so sad that this was the BEST era of blink, yet there was so much turmoil within the band at that point. I wonder what it would have been like had they not broken up the first time… also this is the era where they’re the BEST LOOKING, Mark is so hot fr 😍💕
The build up starting at 2:03 pumps me the fuck up and I feel like jumping and grabbing my guitar at 2:12 with that nice distortion. I’ve been listening to this cover ever since it’s been available on UA-cam and it never gets old. Masterpiece
Always a huge fan of Blink 182. Looked at as pop/punk, but they do have a lot of talent. Travis is an amazing drummer and when they do shit like this, they always make it work so well. Love this rendition.
I remember introducing my friends to Dude Ranch in the 90s, we all loved Blink instantly. And here I am, like 30 years later and finding this song, after having a seriously intense love with a girl named Elise. So much feelz rn.
Damn I was 12 when the Self Titled album came out. Don't make me feel too old now. Been listening for 20 years now. \../ Green Day's "American Idiot" came out in 8th grade for me. Also it's cool that blink is still popular today among people in highschool and whatnot. Adam's song got me through my darkest days of highschool until tomorrow held better days.
La mejor etapa de blink-182 sin duda. Ya tenían una mayor madurez musical y personal. Me imagino cómo habrían sido los álbumes posteriores al Untitled si no se hubiesen separado y pienso que blink pudo haber llegado a ser una banda de culto, algo increíble.
This was a lot better than I remembered it. I was watching it during the original broadcast, and I recall thinking something along the lines of "Oh, this is cute, they really tried to put some skate-punk clothes on a 90's Cure baby!" Seeing it now, some of the earliest parts are still a little rough at times, but by the time they get into the breakdown just after 2 minutes in, it honestly works...in a pretty surprising way. Also thought the little snippet of the original guitar tone at about 3:08 was great, fucking cheeky!
[Chorus] Oh, Elise it doesn't matter what you say I just can't stay here every yesterday Like keep on acting out the same The way we act out Every way to smile, forget And make-believe we never needed Any more than this Any more than this [Verse] Oh, Elise it doesn't matter what you do I know I'll never really get inside of you To make your eyes catch fire The way they should The way the blue could pull me in If they only would, if they only would At least I'd lose this sense of sensing Something else that hides away From me and you, there are worlds to part With aching looks and breaking hearts And all the prayers your hands can make Oh, I just take as much as you can throw And then throw it all away Oh I'll throw it all away Like throwing faces at the sky Like throwing arms round yesterday I stood and stared Wide-eyed in front of you And the face I saw looked back the way I wanted to But I just can't hold my tears away the way you do Elise, believe I never wanted this I thought this time I'd keep all of my promises I thought you were the girl I always dreamed about But I let the dream go And the promises broke and make-believe ran out [Chorus] So, Elise it doesn't matter what you say I just can't stay here every yesterday Like keep on acting out the same The way we act out Every way to smile, forget And make-believe we never needed Any more than this Any more than this [Outro] And every time I try to pick it up Like falling sand As fast as I pick it up It runs away through my clutching hands But there's nothing else I can really do There's nothing else I can really do There's nothing else I can really do At all
I never realized how much Tom cared; He knew how important this was to Mark!
Mark is a huge Cure fan, for him to play this with Robert Smith himself watching must’ve felt like a dream come true
Also having him literally singing a song on the Untitled album. Crazy.
The only thing that probably would have topped it for Mark would be Robert Smith dancing in front of him while he played his song Josie on their last tour before splitting 😂
Mark looks so happy to be singing one of his favourite bands songs
Blink’s absolute peak. They would never be quite the same after this. I have been coming back to this song for 15 years.
It is the absolute peak of blink. Goddamn to go back
self titled is the best pop punk album ever made
They’re back!
For sure. What’s odd is they’re more famous and popular now. But this was their artistic peak
Mark is out of tune and Tom's guitar is sloppy, how is this the peak?
tom killed it on the guitar
Leo Čavala i wanna like this comment but it has 182 likes already
Now it has 282 likes
I wish there was an emoji for that little snort when someone says something so retarded you almost laugh but you cant.
But I checked out your channel, so I know where you're coming from. 15 years ago I was your age and had just learned how to play Dammit and thought Tom was tight, so I feel ya dawg.
@@jre-1337 so he isn't Hendrix the song is still beautiful and blink had their own spin on it. Fuck off loser
Every time I listen to this and hear Mark sing my name I cry a little
hahahahahhaa
fuck sake elise calm it
right. :)
calm down elise... its not you! lol
it doesnt matter what you say
toms best guitar work is in this era, he mixes post punk, hardcore, and his skate punk influences so tastefully
I really wish that they could've done a studio version :(
They did, just never been released. Probably never will because of rights and royalties.
I found the CoCatalog (copyright office) listing for it years ago, and the notes on the listing stated it was a "Main Mix", which in the music industry denotes a studio version.
Damn, I'd really like to be able to download that
@@IAmNeomic my opinion, probably was in ballot with another girl another planet in the cd of their hit, pity some hacker that offers?
Brightside come leak it dudes
I imagine this is what the album after Untitled would have sounded like if they didnt break up that first time. This was pinnacle Blink 182 imo.
Nah they probably would've sounded more like Angels and Airwaves. That's what Tom thought they would've done next after untitled. Hell, in the 2003-04 concerts, before Tom starts playing 'down', Tom plays a riff that sounds just like something that would be used for AVA lol.
ItsGrumpy I mean you can’t be mad at that lol it is pretty great
tbh I reckon neighbourhoods would've been their sound after this anyway. In the mtv album launch you can hear tom play the riff from one of the neighbourhoods songs in there
Several songs written for the next record are actually on the first AVA record. You can pick them out if you listen closely.
@@shottxy4647 The riff for Wishing Well was written during the Untitled sessions, so it's quite possible that.
That riff is catchy as shit..
+Tristan Conrad And it fits the song very well! :D
Tristan Conrad indeed
Tristan Conrad RIGHT?! 🤘🏻
That riff is played with guitar and Xylophone I believe in The Cure’s original version
Something that you'd perform to.someone that truly wants you! ❤
When they really tried, Blink could be so good live. Tom really really plays this well.
This is the direction i wish blink stayed with and evolved into what they're making today.
This sound with all the passion here would sound incredible.
💯
Alternative universe
They would’ve ended sounding like Neighborhoods regardless, which I don’t care. I love Neighborhoods, and California is great, but I would give it up for another album like it
@@jellybIood California and Nine are sideshow trash. One More Time is proof of that.
Marylin Manson, The Cure and Blink 182 in one single video... what more can you ask...
To subtract two of them out.
could understand Manson, but without the cure there would be no blink-182
RJAWolfe 07 They both loved the Descendents / All who were the biggest influences for early blink, but Mark's favorite band is the Cure and they shaped his music taste. He might not have ever played bass if it wasn't for the Cure, especially considering the first song he learned was A Forest.
Manson has his good material
THIS MADE MY DAYY!!
this was a cover done the right way. blink made it their own. every other band just tried to sound as much like the cure as they could. most bands that play bars every night can sound like someone else, thats not all that impressive. kudos to blink for being blink.
exactly i love this version because it's so different
rstewart0516 Agreed
implying blink had a choice .. LMFAO
Saint Matthew That's the same thing I was thinking XD
rskimski deftones did a pretty good job tbh
The guitar tone in here is insane and riffs are catchy. Tom is such a genius. Please don't let this video die.
Tom's work on the guitars on this tune were magestic!
Francisco Navarro majestic
2004. I was 15 and saw this live on German TV. I never thought I would understand this song. 2007 I fell in love and she loved me. Until 2017 when she left me. Now I am 34 and it is 2024. Still love her. Always will do. Missing the early 2000s. Life was hard but true. So was love.
Hope you're doing OK
i hope you find happiness again.
This just makes me feel every feeling under the sun. They fucking killed it...
Because of Blink and this cover I fell in love with The Cure and the amazing Robert Smith!
+LeeSa This is my all time favorite son and Blink 182 did a fabulous job!
Thats doing things the other way around lmao
I still get the chills hearing this version all these years later. just whoa.
3:24 Robert approves.
It's rather at 1:28 or you must have night-vision googles on.😅
This performance is perfect. It might suck to some people but this is 100% what blink was in 2003/2004.

I think tom and mark were already
really ugly w/ each other at this time
I've been a fan of Blink since the 90s. Out of all the albums, all the songs - This is my favorite song I've ever heard them do. Best rendition of this Cure song, by far.
wish there was an actual recording of this version
studio version would be soooooo sweet man!
My heart breaks when the pan to RS sitting in the dark, clapping quietly. He probably feels like a proud dad. I love them all so much.
im in love with toms style on guitar and movements including at 0:53
The best Blink stuff is always the stuff most people haven’t heard. This is perfect.
I've been watching this incredible cover for years and it's about to top 1M views. Good work everyone.
I’m proud to have contributed to at least 100 of those haha
@@BecomingAMan fuck yeah mate Lets keep it going!
No matter how long it’s been, I always come back to this cover. Peak Blink. Punk with a fresh spin on old sentiments.
HOW HAVE I NOT SEEN THIS BEFORE? its amazing!
I've just discovered this video.... 3 years after you so.... lol
182182alex wow, i don't even remember this haha! this reply just popped up when I was browsing. it's interesting how much you can change in 3 years, I probably haven't even listened to Blink in like a year. even though they used be huge Idols of mine. thanks for the blast from the past! :)
I remember seeing this back in 2004 breaking my heart. Idk why but this song and blinks emo period reminds me of the movie 13
I’m just now seeing this 7 years later 😔
that guitar is literally orgasmic
Props to blink for putting their own spin on this. I felt like this was the only performance during this thing were Robert Smith didn't look completely bored.
Smith looking on like a proud dad 1:28
Twenty years later, BEST BAND EVER
I love how raw this version is. The energy is what drives this. It's really cool. The beautiful sadness is what makes the original Cure version so great, and it truly is wonderful as well. I thoroughly enjoy both versions, and will listen to one or the other depending on what kind of mood I'm in. Thank you, Robert Smith, for writing such a wonderful song.
výborný komentař, přesně je to o cítění v tu danou chvíli, dobu a ne provedení, kdyby to zahráli jak originál, tak to nemuseli dělat.

wow tom such a good guitarist right here, just my opinion
Yeah but only here
@@skypekai Not even The Adventure can stir your "that too" ?
Ur not wrong the blink killed it i like to call this theyre self titled album sound
Yeah, so good that he couldn't even play the solo.
echoguitarist found the asshole
This is how a cover should be - staying true to the band's style that's playing it, while still playing the recognizable chords and singing the right melody
I've been here before year 2017, coming back here now 2022. Hi, still get goosebumps everytime I listen to this epic cover.
Just found this and haven't stopped listening. I want the original Blink back together
I wish they release this as a single.
Rob's face is like "Shit, I should tour with this punks" xD
***** I know, that's why I said it xD
**gave a proper nod**
Hahaha best comment !
wish kind of granted dude
Absolutely insane guitar work by Tom!
The guitar riff is awesome, but I really love mark's bass tone.

Lyrics:
Oh Elise it doesn't matter what you say
I just can't stay here every yesterday
Like keep on acting out the same
The way we act out
Every way to smile
Forget
And make-believe we never needed
Any more than this
Any more than this
Oh Elise it doesn't matter what you do
I know I'll never really get inside of you
To make your eyes catch fire
The way they should
The way the blue could pull me in
If they only would
If they only would
At least I'd lose this sense of sensing something else
That hides away
But you and me, we're worlds apart
With aching looks and breaking hearts
And all the plans your hands can make
Oh I just take as much as you can throw
And then I throw it all away
Oh I throw it all away
Like throwing faces at the sky
Like throwing arms round
Yesterday
I stood and stared
Wide-eyed in front of you
And the face I saw looked back
The way I wanted to
But I just can't hide my tears away
The way you do
Elise... believe I never wanted this
I thought this time I'd keep all of my promises
I thought you were the girl always dreamed about
But I let the dream go
And the promises broke
And the make-believe ran out...
Oh Elise
It doesn't matter what you say
I just can't stay here every yesterday
Like keep on acting out the same
The way we act out
Every way to smile
Forget
And make-believe we never needed
Any more than this
Any more than this
And every time I try to pick it up
Like falling sand
As fast as I pick it up
It runs away through my clutching hands
But there's nothing else I can really do
There's nothing else I can really do
There's nothing else
I can really do
At all...
I still come back to this every year and the sweet singing of Tom's guitar makes me explode in my pants. Thank goodness I have a washing machine
I love Tom's guitar part from 3:08-3:18. I keep playing it over.
I do the same thing. I just love the transition
U have the tabs?
@@reyy3644its all in A major scale i dont remember the exact notes

Been watching this for years now it’s still so damn good
good music doesn't have to be technically perfect, it's a feeling
This is a God tier cover
To me, this is Blink-182's best live performance ever. It's slightly better than the Pepsi Smash "I Miss You," which is weird because "A Letter To Elise" isn't even a Blink song.

they did a great job with this cover!
I love this so much 😭😭😭

2021, i'm still listening this song !!
I fantasize Blink, Robert Smith, and Ludwig Van Beethoven jamming to a Letter to Elise,

sometimes guitar bass is the only thing that makes me feel real tom mark and travis felt real af during this whole performance
This is literally the song of my life, and the band I'm proud of being fan. Thank you, Blink-182!

The end of this really rocks and sounds amazing. Turned it into a Blink song. Brilliant
Watched this in 2004, Tom's solo still gives me goosebumps.
Is there a better pleasure for a band to hear their music played with passion by other bands? yes there is THE CURE best band on the world
Gosto muito desses caras , volta blink 182 ! Brasil !
OK so here is the thing, Blinks my favourite band, my name is Elise and I was also born 2004... 😂
Damn I was 12 when the Self Titled album came out. Don't make me feel too old now. Been listening for 20 years now. \../ Green Day's "American Idiot" came out in 8th grade for me. Also it's cool that blink is still popular today among people in highschool and whatnot. Adam's song got me through my darkest days of highschool until tomorrow held better days.
I remember back then when I bought Flanger pedal because want to play this song.
I'd lose my mind to hear a Blink 182 setlist opening for The Cure. Their self titled album blows me away how much Robert Smith rubbed off on Mark
La mejor etapa de blink-182 sin duda. Ya tenían una mayor madurez musical y personal. Me imagino cómo habrían sido los álbumes posteriores al Untitled si no se hubiesen separado y pienso que blink pudo haber llegado a ser una banda de culto, algo increíble.
y acaso no es una banda de culto ya?
Hey! It's Me! x2
Y ya no es banda de culto? Siendo siempre cabezera en los festivales? Te parece poco casi 25 años de trayectoria?
Siempre he pensado lo mismo, si hubieran continuado el estilo del disco rosa creo que hubieran hecho cosas mas interesantes
Anybody Luego Green Day saco american idiot,asi que no tiene mucho sentido lo que dices xd

Seeing it now, some of the earliest parts are still a little rough at times, but by the time they get into the breakdown just after 2 minutes in, it honestly works...in a pretty surprising way. Also thought the little snippet of the original guitar tone at about 3:08 was great, fucking cheeky!
Best version ive ever heard of this song. Way to go!!
❤❤❤❤❤❤ Roberts, hahaha 20 years every yesterday's,blink of eyes beautiful cover, brilliant 💞 regards boys, punch yeah 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Mark sounded really good.
Mark had to be really excited to be asked to sing this song

Fuckkk this whole song and video just pumps me the fuck up !!!! Especially when everything stops and tom just plays that melodic ass guitar riff 🙏🏼🙏🏼
They’re back!!!
that version kicks ass so much!
i wish they would have had this passion in the last years
[Chorus]
Oh, Elise it doesn't matter what you say
I just can't stay here every yesterday
Like keep on acting out the same
The way we act out
Every way to smile, forget
And make-believe we never needed
Any more than this
Any more than this
[Verse]
Oh, Elise it doesn't matter what you do
I know I'll never really get inside of you
To make your eyes catch fire
The way they should
The way the blue could pull me in
If they only would, if they only would
At least I'd lose this sense of sensing
Something else that hides away
From me and you, there are worlds to part
With aching looks and breaking hearts
And all the prayers your hands can make
Oh, I just take as much as you can throw
And then throw it all away
Oh I'll throw it all away
Like throwing faces at the sky
Like throwing arms round yesterday
I stood and stared
Wide-eyed in front of you
And the face I saw looked back the way I wanted to
But I just can't hold my tears away the way you do
Elise, believe I never wanted this
I thought this time I'd keep all of my promises
I thought you were the girl I always dreamed about
But I let the dream go
And the promises broke and make-believe ran out
[Chorus]
So, Elise it doesn't matter what you say
I just can't stay here every yesterday
Like keep on acting out the same
The way we act out
Every way to smile, forget
And make-believe we never needed
Any more than this
Any more than this
[Outro]
And every time I try to pick it up
Like falling sand
As fast as I pick it up
It runs away through my clutching hands
But there's nothing else I can really do
There's nothing else I can really do
There's nothing else I can really do
At all
why am I addicted to this performance!
They should have made a studio version of this cover!
End of 2021 and still love this
