No, absolutely not. I'm more concerned about you not understanding what the band and other people said. Riding around on the same subject is close to trolling, sorry. Topic will be closed soon.

Once again, what happened to "rest my case"?  :?
The holy city breathed like a dying man...

No you didn't understand much of what others posted and what the band said about the song and its origin. Instead, you were still talking about the title of it (months after we'd cleared that!) and what it might mean to people who have no idea and misunderstand it. Incredible really. ("shakes head in disbelief"...)  :unamused:

Shut this shit down Ulrich, listen to the voices in your head from here on out  :angel  :evil:

Robert Smith already stated what the song is about and what the song is NOT about (this can be read here and here). There's really nothing else to add to the discussion. We all gave our opinions, but most important, the final decision whether to play or not this song in the future is entirely up to The Cure. Unless Robert talks again about the song and playing it live, this topic will remain closed.
