I loved the nine inch nails version of this, but it kind of disappoints me that a band would do a cover like this.
there aren't THAT many differences between the two, besides the general emotion of the song. trent reznor's voice is edgier and the emotion sounds truer (maybe because he wrote it. go figure...)
the whole point is that if you aren't going to really add something to the song, what is the freaking point of making it? it's just deceiving to people that listen to it thinking that AFI is amazing for writing it.
it's like if an average joe painted an almost exact replica of the Mona Lisa, and showed it off to people. the people that had never seen the original painting would think it was great, and the people that had seen the original Mona Lisa would spit in the guy's face for trying to compare himself to the great Leonardo Da Vinci.
