Title: Boys Don't Cry- MTV Unplugged

So beautiful. I think I may like it better than the faster tempo album version.

The MTV Unplugged show should have been released in full anyway, it's so good!!!

I remember being amazed at how good The Caterpillar turned out, it's such a tricky one to get right live.

I love during Caterpillar when Robert starts to make himself laugh 😎

Does anyone have the actual setlist? I've never seen it from start to finish and keep seeing bizarre sets online, such as this http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/the-cure/1991/mtv-studios-london-england-4bd7f332.html (http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/the-cure/1991/mtv-studios-london-england-4bd7f332.html)

My guess is this is the actual setlist. It's just that there never was a complete broadcast afaik.

Matti is probably right, this site does list the same set:
http://www.cure-concerts.de/concerts/1991-01-24.php (http://www.cure-concerts.de/concerts/1991-01-24.php)

Interestingly, some songs (incl The Caterpillar) are listed twice, which suggests they needed a 2nd take to get it right!

Damn I didn't know there is a recorded version of Time Has Told Me out there! I wonder if we'll ever get to see it.
