Primary for me...
It was my first encounter with The Cure and the song that started it for me.  I still remember seeing the video for the first time 25+ years ago, being completely blown away and thinking "who is this?"  Still one of the best basslines ever and probably still my favourite song ever....


I can't believe that I asked for these polls to be re-opened... and failed to vote in some  ... I am soo ashamed...  :smth011
Anyway my all-time fav goes to Primary.. i agree with sues777.. the bassline pulls me in every time.. Faith ain't too bad either!  :smth023
Seventeen seconds
A measure of life

It's a tie with Primary and All Cats Are Gray.

Faith, because of the beautiful lyrics :)
I also love the drowning man, all cats are grey and primary.

Primary is my favorite with the chanting lyrics (The further we go and older we go, the more we know the less we show."

2nd- Other Voices
3rd- The Drowning Man

I love the whole album, except Primary, which is not as great as the rest.
I voted for All Cats Are Grey, because I like the melancholy atmosphere.
But I love all the other songs as much.

I'm going to be an outcast and say "OTHER VOICES" because I like the bassline and tune, and the way Robert sings it.

Plus, they just look so dang cool in the video!  ;)

Faith. everytime.

my next would be Primary, then Other Voices.   :smth023
Who am I? Who are you? Is this world what we percieve it to be? Do we even exist?

Faith
the best song ever
I went away alone with nothing left but faith

revolt

"Faith" it is.
Although again, I could chose almost any other track on the album, except "Doubt" (a good "punky" song, but just not on the same level as the others) and "The Funeral Party" (a very good slow atmospheric song, but a little short of "masterpiece" status).

Trust...

I never saw this topic before?
My favourit album, so it's great from the first second until the last ...

But if I need to choose ...

The Drowning Man - becaus off the whole athmosphere ... and Oh I wish I can hear this song live ... somewhere in the future ...

I like The Funneral Party. Its such a sad, melencoly song but it is beautiful. It makes my heart weep and is so nice to listen to.  :smth020
Its Just Like a Dream...:)

All Cats are Grey. I´ll choose that song a hundred times out of hundred.
again and again and again and again and again and...

Whiskers

The Drowning Man. I love the percussion, the ambiance of it, the somewhat frantic-sounding guitar, and the lyrics bring up a feeling of dread that hasn't been matched since by the band.

PRIMARY may be a perfect Cure song...great bass line, upbeat but with somewhat dark, melancholy lyrics.

Other Voices is close second.

i agree, but i think i prefer other voices.

in my opinion, some of the rest of the album is... (dare i say it?) a little boring.  i don't think there's enough melody in it for me.  i really can't the drowning man is a favorite, or even faith.

but it's probably just my mood today.  my opinion on the album fluctuates a lot.
"it's just the way i smile," you said..
