The dismissal of Mr. Schoigu with simultaneous attack operations in the Charkov area are more of a sign of weakness, not strength. They have to attack before the promised US aids arrive at the front. Nevertheless, a kind of defeatism is noticeable in western media. :?

Yep, never say "never".  ;) 
"Maybe someday" (another Cure song!) you'll meet again.

I know what I'm talking about, because a few weeks ago I met a girl I hadn't seen in 29 years. And it went so well, we wanna meet again (soonish).

Quote from: Curehead_steffa on May 09, 2024, 15:47:22...siamese twins i heard about in a youtube video that theres some theory that its about molestation or some type of forced upon act that he had to do and he is traumatized from it.

Don't believe a word from theories on youtube, is what I would recommend.

(Never heard about this anywhere. Btw, RS said to understand the lyrics from that album, he would have to explain them "line by line", which he hasn't done so far. However, in my own theory, "Siamese twins" is about a (too) close "relationship" from start to finish: "flesh and blood and the first kiss... her legs around me.. I walked away and grew old".)

And a nice quote for you here:
QuoteI think it's a mistake to assume that Robert Smith's lyrics are autobiographical. And it's also a mistake to assume that if they are autobiographical, that they should be interpreted literally.

Yes, from all I heard/read that is true. Still Robert kinda "warmed" to the song, having performed it at many of the live shows!

On September 19, 2022 I shared an interview with him and Tim Sebastian (see #47 under Russia attacks Ukraine) - now Pinchas Goldschmidt has received the Charlemagne Prize. Congratulations!

i heard that it was suppose to poke fun of modern pop songs that have meaningless lyrics,and that it was supposed to shift the perspective people had about the band because they have been seen as gloomy and sad and they didnt want that. so yeah its just a silly song and rob barely tried but its still so good.

i love the 13th,he looks so sexy with the smeared makeup and torn clothes. lovecats i love to,i heard they were pretty drunk in the making of it and you can tell, the way rob moves around like an old cartoon is so cute and i love the part where he plays with the kitten and it tries to bite him and he flinches <3 lullaby as well one of the first cure songs ive ever listened too, i love the part where the camera zooms into his teeth and show his tongue and stuff. charlotte sometimes,they all look so sexy and i love the way they appear everywhere 'charlotte' goes especially in the running part. hot hot hot is good aswell,haha they look so tiny and the way rob moves around is like in the lovecats videos. mint car is so poppy and i like his silly face expressions and the train part
