I know this is a real stretch for me, but the last complete Cure song I heard today was.... A Forest (Kilburn '92). Now its hard to believe that I would actually listen to this song but it is true.

I'm listening to the Hanging Garden cover by AFI for the first time. I guess that's close enough. But it seems that many of are listening to The Cure while reading this. Hmmm... Perhaps most of us are a bit obsessed? :-D

I'm listening to Siouxsie and the Banshees - Melt (live nottingham 85)
Quote from: CuretastraphyI'm listening to Siouxsie and the Banshees - Melt (live nottingham 85)
I was watching Nocturne earlier today, and that song was just going through my head as I came to this topic again. That's just fucked up! :shock:
And how we both decided to share Siouxsie w/ Robert shows on back-to-back days. Maybe we have some sort of psychic Siouxsie connection? :smt105
I think so to :?

Carnage Visors.
I really, really like this instrumental. Most people seem not to, but I think it's fab.... Would love to hear a live version of it, actually. And I don't mean live as in the intro music during the Picture Tour, but played by the band itself, live. Though I guess they'd probably need a fifth member (for the keys...).

Whenever I just want to chill out and/or am feeling depressed, I put CARNAGE VISORS on. It's such a trip, a very beautiful melody...sort of eerie, but relaxing. The same effect I get from "HAPPY THE MAN", which I play when I am tired and it nearly puts me to sleep.
Of course, I got my name from the former, I love their instrumentals. :smth023

live versions are better than studio record....
is so good to be you can have lots of live versions....in my country hard to find it..as usual.. :cry: :?
In my experience, FarFar, it's not about what you can find in a shop (I've found maybe five Cure bootlegs in record stores over the last two years), but what you can grab off the internet.
We've got a lot of good ones here, if you've got the internet speed. And if Megaupload doesn't hate your country, as it seems to hate so many others.

That works a lot better for me & I know some regions have limited download slots on megaupload.
BTW. DON'T INSTALL THE MEGA UPLOAD TOOL BAR.

And the light begins to fade

The wish never came true
And the girl starts to sing

A measure of life

I must admit.. I think I've really got to listen to this again.. it is not a favourite.. but so many adore this... I really am quite indifferent to this... :smth100
but at the moment... beside what Cure song is travelling in my head at a particular time of the day ( it is insanity, yes???) tunes go around and around... :smth088
at the moment... I am stuck on Lullaby.. thanks to those posters on " Funny Robert Stuff Forum" !! ... :smth072
you know who you are!!!! ;) you crack me up.!! :-D
ooohh.. sorry.. :shock: I forgot the reason too that which I was attracted to this particular forum.. was.. PLEASE excuse me.. but the English translation/ spelling is like a scratch I can't reach to..
The correct English spelling of "which" is "which"...not..ummm "wich".. :oops:
Blame my ancestors on the correct usage of English and Spelling.. Goddamn teachers!! :!:
I was corrected my entire life on "Grammar" and spelling.. it is a DISEASE
please forgive my OCD ???
"There is no if..."
not sure what my I.T. folks did but i love it. i asked that when i fire up my computer in the morning, that a random Cure song play during this start up procedure. i've got 6 speakers around my computer so LOUD is good before i've had my coffee. wayyyyyyyyyyyy too cool!!

thanx all!! :-D
Plainsong!
I'm trying to educate my sister on the cure. She knows the pop greatest hits type songs but im taking her with me to wembley next year so shes got to know ALL of them. I think she should listen to "one hundred years" next. But i think she may run away in fear hehe :smth020

I was "damaged" with the cure. My dad was a fan and i've been listening to them since i was born. However "scarred" is the word i would use as to what U2 did to me :shock:

so, did you already hera and compare the top remastered with the non remastered album???
Actually, no. Much difference?

That was the first Cure song I ever heard. I saw the video on MTV and I was instantly hypnotized/mesmerized (sp?). I rushed out to buy

When I was 18 I used to play this song over and over alone in my room and spin (I don't know why, it makes me want to spin like a mad thing rather than dance) until I was too dizzy to put the needle back on the record.
Now that I'm 40 I'm not real big on spinning, but this song always puts me in a good mood!

I actually am slightly ashamed to say I really
enjoy that album, their first. I find it catchy, poppy, and punkish. And I like Robert's youthful voice, he sounds really cool and young.
Like, when I want to play The Cure for my friends, I always start with some of that album, and then move to the more gothy stuff, and then to the more alternative stuff, to show how diverse they are so my friends won't be quick to judge my favorite band of all time.
It used to be me - sadly no live version exists....
Now on Just One Kiss!!!!
Remember the time that you rained all night
The queen of Siam in my arms
Remember the time that the islands sank
But nobody opened their eyes...

"i said i love you" i said...you didn't say a word
CLT one of the true masterpieces for me -- Faith.
I hadn't listened to it in a while, now I put it on and as always I get immediately so caught up in it -- I can't just listen to this song, I experience it; know what I mean? I feel it in every bone of my body and it gives me chills.
Charlotte Sometimes....I love this song..
I've got the Faith re-mix on today!! :rocker

Lament:
Today there was a tragedy
Underneath the bridge
A man walked
Cold and blue
Into La Ment
The sky coloured perfect
As the man slipped away
Waving with a last vanilla sky
Someonewhere at a table
Two drowned fools
Smoking
Drinking water as they talked
Of how they loved our lady
And oh the smell as the candles die
One more ice cream river body
Flowed underneath the bridge
Underneath the bridge
~edit~... sorry tonite I'm into Cure: Concert Live... a very depressing mix of darkness and pronography.

Absolutely brilliant recording (SBD/FM composite).

Although Shake Dog Shake is up there.. I have to say that on the original 'Top'... the recording doesn't do anything for me.. If I were to pick one and only from the recording of 'Top' .. it woould be 'The Caterpillar'..

You mean you don't like it?????????? :smth086
Have you tried singing along with it? By yourself? Possibly while you dance in a wild barely coordinated manner? Give it a try, you can also growl during the song if you wish, and let me know -- I won't tell anyone.

i've been listening to all the singles tracks/missing tracks from the 2004 album such as Fake, This Morning, Going Nowhere, Why Can't I be Me, Your God is Fear.... those songs are so awesome... they should make an album entirely made up of songs just like those.

Fear of GhostsRoger's haunting melody, I hear. :smth038
This is a lie... from Join the Dots.
Last months I re-listen 17secons a few times. It's yet my favorite album, and I think it could be for the rest of my life.
What means A forest for everyone? It's only a nightmare?, a story?, a joke?, the feeling of a life? I think that one the most repeated words in the lirics of The Cure is "lost"; just what we are, losted and betting.
THE SAME DEEP WATER AS YOU :smth049
JSET from the Paris show.
Resplendant with all the bass coming through loud & clear.

And the sea grows
I close my eyes
Move slowly through drowning waves
Going away on a strange day
Song : All I have to do kill her .
Fav lines :
And the other faces here with me
The others dressed in summers thing
If only one way is to be beautiful
If only one way is to the other song
And every time it's you, it's like the blood on the stairs is sent away
And every time we see it's all said before you
If only the ways to kill you

whisper your name in an empty room
you brush past my skin

other voices
pounding in my broken head
commit the sin
commit yourself
and all the other voices said
change your mind
you're always wrong
..echoes of my life.

You standing quiet in the rain
As I ran to your heart to be near
And we kissed as the sky fell in
Holding you close
How I always held close in your fear
ohh.. robiola.. i know i live in the land of the cockatoos.. but i still don't list this as a favourite yet. is there a particular recoeding of this song that changed your mind? 8) maybe i can suss it out and be true to the bird of flight here.. ;)

Nope... always liked the original track, since the first time I heard it!
CLT If Only Tonight We Could Sleep, the live version from the concert I attended in Milan! Ah, memories...
Yes Poe
Possession is a great song
Up until now haven't seen anyone else pay much attention to it but glad my "trigger" led you to it. Cryptic lyrics yes, but oh what a great song, for me anyway.

Hey, thanks for leading the way! :smth023 I have a copy of Join The Dots, but hadn't really payed that song that much attention until I saw your signature, and so forth. Wadda you know. ;) Nice to know it's one of their later songs, one of many that show they've still got it.
Cure-ntly listening to: All I Have To Do Is Kill Her, from...
http://visual.givemeit.de/alolympiaparis761982/
A Cure fan in Italy sent me a copy, woho! Never heard one of their earlier shows in its entirety before. Robert's voice, the keyboard effects, love it.
a Forest
...Suddenly I stop
but i know it's too late
I'm lost in a forest
all alone
The girl was never there
it's always the same
I'm running towards nothing
again and again and again
Accuracy
Just like heaven - it is spring, after all...
From the edge of the deep green sea
...wave after wave
after wave...
It's all for her :smth055
ALL CATS ARE GREY
The Bird Mad Girl
"This girl has got a smile
That can make me cry ..."
"She flies outside this cage
Singing girl-mad words"
By the way, how do you spell the title? Birdmad, bird mad or bird-mad, like girl-mad above? I've seen em all...
Play With Me
paint your nails
And brush your hair
And tell you that you are so very
Beautiful
I whisper in your ear
And on my knees I tell you that you are
Desirable
Don't need to cage me
To close all the doors
As long as you keep me
I will always be yours
Won't you play with me?
Play with me

Oh gawd, just when I think I've heard all there is to hear...Thanks a lot! ;)
The lyrics are a tad clumsy, but it's only an outtake. Could be a nice track with some polishing. Still like it though.

OTHER VOICES
This period i listenthe "Faith" album every day.....
Alo guys,
CLT to End of The World.Amazing track.
p/s: I listened it with one of my friend, Fadilah because she really
interested in that song when I 1st gave her my collection of The Cure CD.
New comer huh! and obviously she likes the new version of our boys instead of
the gloomy era of The Cure.
Right now, Kyoto Song from Prayer Tour '89. Really good versions on that tour
Uyea Sound - dreamy
Plastic Passion
...Plastic passion is a diamond delight
Plastic passion is the nadir of night
Oh! it's a plastic passion :rocker
Right now Robert is saying " We have to stop because a helikopter ia gonna land ,pobably in the middle of you all."And the the concert starts again with
Fascination Street.(Glasonbury Festival 1990) :-D// Michael
LAST DANCE
From "Entreat"! :roll:
a Forest
...I hear her voice
Calling my name
The sound is deep
In the dark
I hear her voice
And start to run
Into the trees
Into the trees :smth048
Temptation Two
...wonder if there is a chance of this song being played live on the upcoming tour.
I love how he sounds somewhat reminiscent of a seagull at the beginning.
APART :smth049
Jupiter Crash :smth023
CUT
if only you'd never speak to me
the way that you do
if only you'd never speak like that
it's like listening to
a breaking heart
a falling sky
fire go out and friendship die
I wish you felt the way that I still do
the way that I still do
/.../
but you don't
you don't feel anymore
you don't care anymore
it's all gone...
it's all gone!
My roommate just landed a great new job and we are somewhat celebrating. listening to Open at the moment, and i can quote, "...all the drinks that i mix and i drink til i'm sick". seriously, it is almost at that point.

hello image
sing me a line from your favourite song
twist and turn
but you're trapped in the light
all the directions were wrong
you'll fall in love with somebody else
tonight :smth045
The Only One
<3<3<333
Gone! :-D
.....Yeah you know how it is
wake up feeling green
sick as a dog and six times as mean
you don't want to sing you don't want to play
you don't want to swing you don't want to sway
all you want to do is nothing
on a day like today.....
Sleep When I'm Dead!!!!!
Another excellent new song.
A Walk!
Tu rut tu rut tu rut tu rut tu turut turut tutu..
Faith from the 3rd concert in Mexico City 06-September 2004
The lighters were amazing !!!!!
From the edge of the deep green sea
...but suddenly she slows
and looks down at my breaking face
"why do you cry?
what did i say?"
"but it's just rain" i smile
brushing my tears away... :smth022
Another Journey By Train :D
NY Trip.

"In one sense, it's me addressing myself. It's about the persona I sometimes fall into into. On another level, it's addressed to people who expect me to know things and have answers, and it has a broader idea, to do away with the way you fall into a path, it just becomes habitual even though it's not really the way you want to be...I had it in the back of my mind when I wrote the songs that when it comes to performing on the tour, it would remind me each night that I'm reducible to what I'm doing. I do need reminding because it's got to the stage where I could happily fall into the rock star trap...our success has reached the kind of magnitude where it's insistent and insidious." - Robert

if only you'd never speak to me
the way that you do
if only you'd never speak like that
it's like listening to
a breaking heart
a falling sky
fire go out and friendship die
i wish you felt the way that i still do
the way that i still do
if only you'd never look at me
the way that you do
if only you'd never look like that
when i look at you
i see face like stone
eyes of ice
mouth so sweetly telling lies
i wish you felt the way that i still do
the way that i still do
but you don't
you don't feel anymore
you don't care anymore
it's all gone
if only you'd never pull from me
the way that you do
if only you'd never pull like that
when i'm with you
i feel hopeless hands helplessly
pulling you back close to me
i wish you felt the way that i still do
the way that i still do
if only you'd ever speak speak to me
the way you once did
look at me the way you once did
pull to me the way you once did
but you don't
you don't feel anymore
you don't care anymore
it's all gone

Yeah it's a cool web site but I have to agree, you can't tell which shows the live versions are from. Found out about it last year and it's great to listen to at work since I hate to bring in my CD's. My co-workers want to borrow them & then they don't give them back!!!

Again and again
Your body falls
The movement is sharp and clear and pure
And gone
I stop and kneel beside you
Drained of everything but pain

Disintegration is my all time favorite...
Same here possibly my all time favorite song ever. Faith is close behind.
Like Cockatoos
And kissed his feet she fell
Her head an inch away from heaven
And her face pressed tight
And all around the night sang out
Like cockatoos
Underneath The Stars
Again :smth020
The more i hear it, the more im convinced its the best thing theyve done in nearly 10 years. Id put it up there with Disintegration, Same Deep Water and Faith among others, it really is that good...
Taking off... feels like im freee flying everywhere

Just listened to the High single
This Twilight garden, Play and then High (higher mix). This last one is 100 times better than the regular song. It was the only version I knew back in 92, I grabbed it before Wish was released on the French radio (Bernard Lenoir show, familiar for French Black Sessions).
This version of High is simply amazing pop song :smth023
Any one agrees?

To make it slow
If only here is where I go
If this is real
I have to see
I turn on fire

It looks good
It tastes like nothing on earth

It tastes like nothing on earth
Its so smooth it even feels like skin
It tells me how it feels to be new

Close to me
i never thought this day would end
i never thought tonight could ever be

The Last Day of Summer

All that is wrong
All that I feel for or trust in or love
All that is gone

And then we're here in a room too clean and too bright
She stares at you for an hour
You stare into the light
For one last hour in the room
So mean and so white
I stare at her in this room as she stares into the night
Lets go to Bed
you think you're tired now

Please Come Home, Strum, and A Boy I Never Knew (2004 studio version)
I love the stripped down production of the 2004 version of A Boy I Never Knew. I also prefer the sound of the piano in the track to the guitar in the 2007-8 live versions. Please Come Home is also quite sad and beautiful.

I've been listening to a bootleg I got from a friend in the States, it's of the concert they had in Atlanta, Georgia on the 15th of June this year. They played Underneath the Stars, and I was once again struck by what an amazing, may I say Curealicious, song we've got here. PLEASE be gentle with it in the studio guys...

As Robin said: "This is the definitive version of Boys Don't Cry" from their MTV Unplugged performance.
I'm actually listening to a remix I made, of the Beastie Boys. It's a mashup. With The Cure music. It actually sounds pretty good as a hip-hop song, partially due to The Cure's ahead-of-their time sound.

I was testing out a demo of Acoustica Mixcraft (best editing software I've tried!!!) Keep in mind, this was made last year, I was 15, bla bla bla. Just so you don't go into it expecting Moby! (it's not the best mix I've ever done, admittedly) ;)

'Strum' is a demo, but I'm not sure if it's new or from 2004. It's not brilliant, but it's ok.

yes it's a strange world, even when you do try to see that some tracks just fit together better than some others and therefore perhaps create a better composition as an album. but sometimes the things that get left behind... like this one.
there's more in this one song alone than in half of the whole 'the cure' album(!).

Good to see this one is done well. Robert's vocals are powerfull and the only unnecessary thing is that "yeah" at the very end of the song. There's also (surprise) some tasteful atmospheric keyboards added that actually contribute to the overall effect. So this is indeed the highlight of "4:13 Dream", both studio and live.
By the way, I now notice that the main rhythm guitar riff sounds a bit like Siouxsie & the Banshees from the 1978-79 era, when they released albums like "Join Hands" and... "The Scream".

Me too, jb. I think that Watching Me Fall would fit nicely into the spot FTEOTDGS currently occupies. You know, that midset epic. :rocker I suppose Robert has trouble remembering the lyrics to it, though. And heavens, to remove Deep Green Sea? :shock: Don't get me wrong, I love that one, it's just way overplayed. Nice to have heard Porl tear it up (and watch his guitar hero moves) on the recent tour, but it still needs to be played less in favor of some other 8 to 11 minute song.
Quote from: crowbi_wan on January 04, 2009, 22:16:05

i was thinking exactly the same.
i'm not tired of 'from the edge of...' either, every time i've heard it live it's been very powerful song and powerful performance.
but alternating it a bit with something else would only boost that, imo.
Quote from: crowbi_wan on January 04, 2009, 22:16:05
I suppose Robert has trouble remembering the lyrics to it, though.
well, a lot of people can memorize a lot longer texts/lyrics than that on a regular basis. sure it's not the greatest fun ever but it's not
that difficult either. it's not some sort of ultimate task that would put you up to the guinness world records or something.
at least that shouldn't be any kind of reason not to play some song (with long lyrics) - or, if it really is the reason, then it only tells that mr smith is a bit lazy, that he can't bother...? i mean, how difficult it really is, to memorize lyrics for a rock/pop song? sure some of them are a bit longer than others and some texts are trickier than others, but it's still nowhere near like memorizing lyrics for a 6-hour opera by richard wagner or something - and people memorize those things too, when/if they just decide to do it. so....
i think it's almost become sort of myth that robert somehow "must" forget lyrics here and there. well, i don't mind him occasionally screwing up the lyrics here and there, it's not something that ruins the song for me. but if it's even a remote reason for why they keep playing the same songs over and over again, why they don't introduce some songs to they set - then perhaps he should just sit down and start learning...
then it's "back to school robert"! :twisted:
:-D

Have you listened to 'Doing the Unstuck' from San Jose? He butchers the entire song badly! :oops:
My favorite verse:
It's a perfect day for making out
Making out...
...shout
The only thing I can sing is "out"
Let's get happy
Then at the end he says something about how he remembers why they don't do that one.
:lol:
But you're right, it doesn't ruin the song. Not at all. It just makes me laugh that he can get so far off, even having soundchecked the songs they don't do that often. Too many visits to the drum riser and those red cups I think ;)

i really hate to say anything like this (so i'll say it very quietly) but i do think it's pretty unprofessional both ways, either not to bother re-memorizing the lyrics before the gig or to simply screw up because you drank too much during the gig...

Let´s Go to Bed from Washington oct 23:rd, 1984. It´s a very interesting version with a little peculiar introduction of Mr Smith and an extra twist throughout the whole song. It´s more playful and pink than usuall. The drumsticks are mastered by Vince Ely (his second concert on the tour) and I think that in this song he really finds a way. He´s immaculate here.

Play for Today from Nakano Sun Plaza, Tokyo, 1984. The drumming is excellent and when Andy was like this he´s a match even for Boris. The version of Charlotte Sometimes on this concert is one of my favorites.
Ah.... Here comes Wailing Wall... The voice, the voice! I probably be up all night playing various concerts. Been a while since Cure took a spin on the stereo now.

A pic I took during POY. At least I think this was taken during that one. It's kind of blurry, so I left it as a thumbnail. Not quite as noticeable that way. ;)

Your words on that song are exactly how I felt while listening to Want. For me, that was the special one. I didn't get to hear it during the 4tour, just missing so by one day (Phoenix). And not having gone to any Dreamtour shows, it had been a while since I'd heard it live (in person). Good times.

it probably is. during the intro of 'pictures of you' robert came to the edge of the stage. smiling - but all my pics turned out super-blurry. :(

'want' was great to hear, i agree. one of the top moments and certainly a more "rare" occasion that 'pictures...'. i know there was nothing quite that special and/or rare in 'pictures of you' (in terms of performance/the song getting played), it just somehow "felt right" to me. like for once being in the right spot in the whole damn universe in the right time.

i have to agree with this. i've always had this "problem" with joy division. i really really like and respect them a lot. but i can rarely listen to more than half an album at a time, then i need to listen to something else for a change. there's just so much anxiety and desolation in their music, practically in every song. this never seems to happen with the cure. even the "depressed" songs by the cure are still somehow energizing, in their own way: they give you energy, whereas joy division often takes it away.

behind the churchyard wall
and fell asleep before i came...
i found you
in a chain of flowers
sleeping like a marble girl
sleeping in another world...
i'll never tell you
of all the different ways
you make me so afraid...

FROM THE EDGE OF THE DEEP GREEN SEA
Underneath the Stars from 12:13 Dream
i just fell deeply in love with At Night from the paris album :smth060
can't stop listening to it....
The Same Deep Water As You
Underneath The Stars
Floating here like this with you
Underneath the stars
Alight for 13 billion years
The view is beautiful
And ours alone tonight
Underneath the stars
Spinning round and round with you
Watching shadows melt the light
Soft shining from our eyes
Into another space
Is ours alone tonight
Watching shadows melt
And the waves break
And the waves break...
:smth049
THE BIG HAND
the big hand makes all of your favourite things
like all your dreams go small
and all your friends run away
until your memories fail
and the words don't fit
but the way the big hand smiles
you just won't care about it
the big hand makes all of your favourite things
like all your days run out
and all your hopes disappear
and your smiles just stop
and your eyes go dead
and the shadows start to crawl
in the back of your head
but when the big hand speaks
it's like fireworks and heaven
so you listen
don't think
and wish for nothing at all
and when the big hand sings
it's like fireworks and friends
leaving alone i'm not
leaving alone
leaving alone i'll never
leave alone again
so when the big hand holds up all your favourite things
and with a touch like glass
starts to squeeze
you don't ask
"why me?"
you just slip to the floor
just slip to your knees
but when the big hand speaks
it's like fireworks and heaven
so you listen
don't think
and wish for nothing at all
and when the big hand sings
it's like fireworks and friends
leaving alone i'm not
leaving alone
never leaving alone
leaving alone i'm not
leaving alone
leaving alone
i'm not leaving alone again

Please stop loving me
Please stop loving me

No, I won't do it some more

This is it like I get

But chilly Mr. Dilly - Too much rush to talk to Billy
All the tizzy fizzy idiot things must get done
In a second - just hang on - all in good time - wont be long
Until later...
I should've stopped to think - I should've made the time
I could've had that drink - I could've talked a while
I would've done it right - I would've moved us on
But I didn't - now it's all too late
It's over... over
And you're gone..
I miss you I miss you I miss you
I miss you I miss you I miss you so much

THE FUNERAL PARTY

THE SAME DEEP WATER AS YOU
Where the Birds Always Sing
The world is neither fair nor unfair
The idea is just a way for us to understand
But the world is neither fair nor unfair
So one survives
The others die

FAITH
Catch me if I fall
I'm losing hold
I can't just carry on this way
And every time
I turn away
Lose another blind game
The idea of perfection holds me
Suddenly I see you change
Everything at once
The same
But the mountain never moves

Hey, that's what I'm listening to right now. XD
Watching Me Fall
There's a thin white cold new moon and the snow is coming down
And the neon bright tokyo lights flicker through the crowd
I've been drifting around for hours and I'm lost and I'm tired
When a whisper in my ear insatiable breathes
"why don't you follow me inside?... "
In Between Days, though it's the Ben Folds version. Still a Cure song. ;)

Last Dance from London 89 just changed to In Between Days from Glastonbury 1990.
Haven´t listened to Cure for several months now but today I started to go through a lot of my live recordings and that really is a sweet moment of clarity and pure joy. But I have to say that I prefere the older ones. Ontario Theater, Washington november 84 and Sun Plaza Hall, Tokyo october the same year are sooooo magic!
Three later great exceptions: Jumping Someone Else´s Train (RS solo for a short while during the concert at Irwing Plaza, NY 1997), The Last Day of Summer (Libro Music Hall, Wienna, Austria 2000), and Trust (Roskilde, Denmark 2001), even if the voice is on the edge during that performance in Denmark.

PUSH
Go go go
Push him away
No no no
Don't let him stay
He gets inside to stare at her
The seeping mouth
The mouth that knows
The secret you
Always you
A smile to hide the fear away
Oh smear this man across the walls
Like strawberries and cream
Its the only way to be
Exactly the same clean room
Exactly the same clean bed
But I've stayed away too long this time
And I've got too big to fit this time...

Thats so cool, seeing one of my favourite Cure songs preformed for one of the first times, when Robert messes up the lyrics he is even adorable than normal:) He sounded really nervous while singing, probably because it was his first time in front of a large audience but he did a great job, wish I was alive then so I could have seen it live. Thanks for sharing :smth023 Right now I am listening to "Cold" :smth020 The Cure - Cold (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fmsum7NWSTk#)
Where The Birds Always Sing ... :(
The world is neither fair nor unfair
The idea is just a way for us to understand
But the world is neither fair nor unfair
So one survives
The others die
And you always want a reason why
But the world is neither just nor unjust
It's just us trying to feel that there's some sense in it
No, the world is neither just nor unjust
And though going young
So much undone
Is a tragedy for everyone
It doesn't speak a plan or any secret thing
No unseen sign or untold truth in anything...
But living on in others, in memories and dreams
Is not enough
You want everything
Another world where the sun always shines
And the birds always sing
Always sing...
The world is neither fair nor unfair
The idea is just a way for us to understand
No the world is neither fair nor unfair
So some survive
And others die
And you always want a reason why
But the world is neither just nor unjust
It's just us trying to feel that there's some sense in it
No, the world is neither just nor unjust
And though going young
So much undone
Is a tragedy for everyone
It doesn't mean there has to be a way of things
No special sense that hidden hands are pulling strings
But living on in others, in memories and dreams
Is not enough
And it never is
You always want so much more than this...
An endless sense of soul and an eternity of love
A sweet mother down below and a just father above
For living on in others, in memories and dreams
Is not enough
You want everything
Another world
Where the birds always sing
Another world
Where the sun always shines
Another world
Where nothing ever dies...
To The Sky
"...and in my dreams I was a child, flowers in my mouth and in my eyes..."

Hold me up so high

Happy Curefan Anniversary ;)
I'm I right that you know The Cure becaus off you mom ?
I have a son from 11 years old and he's so happy to know that he shall see The Cure in september 2011,
he is also playing guitar and today he came to me with the words,
hey I can play the intro off Killing an Arab :-D
That is so nice to have a son interested in the Cure:) Congratulations on getting your ticket to the show! Yes my mom played a Cure song (Inbetween Days) on a tape in the car many years ago, I remember hearing it but I never knew the band, and then last year, I was listening to my ipod (almost all the songs were put on it in 2004/5 when I first got it, by my mom) and there were a few that were on there that I hadn't heard before. It was only up until last year that I discovered the only 2 Cure songs on it and the rest is history. :smth020

I was interested to read your post as my mom took me to my first Cure concert in 1989 (The Prayer Tour) I was the fan but she ended up enjoying it very much. What a great introduction to The Cure live and a great first concert for me. I saw them at the same venue for the Dream Tour (almost exactly 20 years later) and Robert still sounded great. I remember that they opened with Plainsong in '89 and Open in 2009 - I don't remember which sounded better.

I'm not listening to the cure at the mo. I'm not listening to any music because my mum won't let me listen to music or own any music and she THINKS i deleted it off the computer but luckily since she doesn't know how to work a computer i only made it APPEAR as though I deleted 'em all. DEVO now i can't listen to music when she's around and that's like only 1 hour that she's not. :cry: She took my ipod too. :x But if i WAS listening to music the cure would always be on my playlist. I only ever listen to music in playlists I create, a new one every week or so cuz I'll get bored of the same songs that quickly.
On an off topic note, I'm so f*cking glad it's friday, and I have a long weekend! WOOOP WOOP :-D

For the longest time I've thought Bird Mad Girl was always Bird man girl. I have no idea why. I have thought that for years now. . .
anyway, I am currently listening to Torture off KMKMKM. Such a great track
Currently listening "Bird Mad Girl". I was never a "The Top" fan, but the album has regained my interest since the Christmas shows.
The Top is definitely strange. I always think of it as a horror album, for some reason. Maybe it is, in a way.

Some of The Top's demos are really fascinating and the guitar work on that track is incredible. Could it be Porl? I think in terms of chronology it's possible.

Sorry to say, but the person who uploaded this to youtube was definitely "misinformed". :(
This is not The Cure, it's

It's good for a "guest spot", but does not sound "Cureish" at all (except for the vocals).
Sorry Ulrich, I'll be more careful next time.

I am revisiting the latest albums which i hadn't payed much attention for 'reasons' , now into 4:13, and i am liking it much more than i thought, one of may favorites songs is this one (the best on the album still is 'It's over' for me though)
"Cut" My husband slipped Wish into the CD changer. (good guy :D) Now "To Wish Impossible Things." What a beautiful song. (To Wish Remastered Wish)
Exploring some b-sides is always interesting! This one even made it into the band's live set back in '87 (I do remember I had it on a tape recorded from a radio show at the time...):

I found a magazine where Robert Talk Talks about the guitars he used on that album, I got it for free too!! I almost screamed when I saw it honestly.

Friday I'm In Love, it came on 120 Minutes music videos I stay up for every sunday, not the tv show anymore sadly. Now it's just music videos.
I'm listening to the whole of Torn Down. I hate it, apart from The Drowning Man and From The Edge Of The Deep Green Sea. Missed opportunity as far as I'm concerned. Keep Robert away from mixing. He should have reached out to all the people performing at the anniversary show and Meltdown CUREation. Imagine mixes by Nine Inch Nails, Slowdive, Interpol, Goldfrapp. Missed opportunity. Will we ever hear the mix by Cranes and the Mogwai mix of Faith?

"Push" from the Rosemont (US) gig during the Prayer Tour 1989. This was the only show of the tour to feature this song and the last time the song was played until Boris' last gig with The Cure in 1993!

I've been listening to the "Disintegration" demos (released on the remastered issue 2010), I think the instrumental version of the title track is very interesting - the way bass, drums, keyboards & guitars play together here is unique (you can listen without the vocals, but leaving out one instrument would make it very different)!

A great version of this song...
Plainsong...
Listening 'Show' on the radio. The Cure at their peak. What a sound, what an energy, and what a drummer!
So imaginative, colourful and expressive!
The Cure performs "Shake Dog Shake" at the 2019 Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame Induction Ceremony at Barclays Center on March 29, 2019 in Brooklyn, New York City.
This song means a lot to me. Note the sunrise when Robert plays his solo.
Finally! The kick drum sounds good, by the way.
Babble....the beat makes me wanna dance and dance and dance and dance ....
One of those mid-80s quirky and mischievous pop numbers
Quote from: Ulrich on June 11, 2019, 15:05:14
This beautiful song defines "wistful"...
Also, a good example of a song that doesn't really work live. So much of the charm depends on how Robert's voice disappears deeper and deeper into the mix, an effect no one's going to begin trying to recreate live.
In general, Robert's voice is, more often than not, not in the very foreground of Cure songs, from In Your House to Close to Me, from A Short Term Effect to Out Of This World, from The Drowning Man to Lullaby etc ad infinitum. One example to the contrary that highlights this is the atrociously produced self-titled album, where several great songs were ruined by the nu metal simpleton.
And another reason why I'm not a big fan of live shows, though admittedly I've had heard some really superb live renditions by the lineup most consider the classic one, not least the Unplugged show.
Best liver version ever... and love the sound of those drums!
10:15 Saturday Night live at the Olympia Paris 1982, great live version in my opinion!
Ladies and gentlemen, the greatest Cure drummer ever, what a way of playing!
Listening to Lullaby, live version from 1992...I call it perfection :)
One of The Cure's best post-Disintegration songs, this really should have a higher profile.

Here, we're spinning the Cure version of
Purple Haze quite a bit at the moment. This one (the noisy one):
The B-sides box set arrived in the mail recently, and we had no idea they'd covered that! I was thinking, "Is this going to work???" - and you know what, it really does. They're stripping the paint off the walls with that version - excellent. :cool

It's good to dip into other people's recommendations here. Usually if I mention The Cure in public, people's eyes sort of glaze over! So I'm still getting used to this *not* happening here. :cool

I do think that with some people, the exteriors are offputting - the more straightlaced people, the ones with strict upbringings etc etc. They see Robert Smith and especially males can tend to just let their preconceived ideas get all over them and not actually just listen one human being to another. Then again though, the sort of guys for whom another male wearing make-up is a problem will also tend to have a problem with males emotionally expressing themselves in a non-straightlaced manner. This is really sad for the people concerned - to have been lopped like that socially and culturally in their upbringings. I've often thought, as a female, that while males tend to disproportionately occupy power positions etc, that they tend to have more of their humanity amputated during socialisation than we do. And I think music like this is a good antidote to finding those parts of yourself again, and reclaiming such parts. :)
The other reason people's eyes tend to glaze over is because my "home forum" (a nice little community that is very interactive and sharing) is not specifically a music forum, and it becomes like, "Oh, she's doing another music post!" :rofl Although having said that, I've also had a lot of engagement from people when I do music posts, and people coming to the discussion to share their own favourite things, and say why it means something to them. :cool
About the latter - too mainstream - you know, I'm only a recent (about five years ago) discoverer of the serious side of The Cure, and it did sort of adversely affect me to hear
Friday I'm In Love every time I was in a shopping centre. ;) I'd completely turned off to contemporary music and radio by the late 80s (for various reasons) and was getting systematically into classical and folk, which is also a nice journey actually; and mostly just listening to rock artists, for want of a better word, that I'd already "discovered" as a teenager, between 1984 and 1987 particularly, and continuing to buy their albums unless they took U-turns I didn't appreciate. It was getting married to a music buff with a huge collection nearly a dozen years ago that put me back in touch with that side of things, and that was really nice! :) Because then I had it curated, with much of the "bilge" removed - he has very good taste, although I really don't like Radiohead! :rofl
Have a decent day! :)
PS: For anyone who's not done a lot of exploring in classical music (and like with contemporary music, you have to sort through a lot of mud to find the gold), and who loves
Plainsong - do yourself a favour and listen to the first movement of Arvo Pärt's
Tabula rasa sometime. I've always thought of those two tracks as fraternal twins. If you're going to listen, this sounds best not on headphones, but with a good system where the bass really reverberates in the room, and through you - and up loud! :) ...do not do this on tinny speakers... spoils everything...
"The Big Hand". Probably on the top three of my favorite Cure songs...
This one is
fabulous,
@dsanchez... First heard it last week, as part of the B-sides set we got recently. The intro just makes all my hair stand up on end... all that echoey watercolour going on... amazing.
I'm still listening to various B-sides! ;)
So I'll wait for you where I always wait...
A Strange Day
It's been quite a music-heavy week, with lots of Cure this week for me, including repeat listens to
Disintegration because it suits something I'm working through at the moment. But when I came up for air, this song was on repeat a couple of times - and I know someone else recently posted it, but still-
It's just such a lovely song.
Not really "The Cure", but we can let him away with that... ;)

He wrote the music :). He also wrote the music for "This Is A Lie" and "Anniversary" according to his wikipedia page. Not my description, but I agreed with the OG poster; he has a warm soft vibe on stage and in interviews that made that era really fun to watch haha

It's true - Robert Smith does actually look like a bank robber with short hair! And sort of teddy-bearish with long hair. As has been remarked, we're all just three meals and a haircut away from savagery! ;)
Very effervescent and has been getting listens from me:
Oh God, The Only One... you know my sentiments on that one 🤮
Interesting I read this discussion on Twitter about this song...

Robert Smith said that himself in one of those interviews - I'm paraphrasing - something about looking like a thug or about to rob a bank with short hair - if I find it again I'll post it for you but we were very amused. :lol: And we both think it's true.
Still vomiting over
The Only One? :angel
I think it's so hilarious that people get offended by things they do themselves - or want to! :lol:
No profanities, no colloquialisms, no toxic masculinity, just descriptions of pretty vanilla sexual repertoire, presumably in a married context, and with a sense of gratitude and celebration. Not like
The Lemon Song or, did you ever hear that one on Triple J many moons ago, on constant repeat, called
Too Drunk To F***? It was actually called that... Those are two examples of what makes me vomit... 🤮 ...and stuff like Phil Collins'
One More Night. 🤮🤮🤮 ,,,that's so bad I need electrolytes to recover from the profuse vomiting it induces... 🤮
(I stole your vomit emoji again! :winking_tongue)
The sound is as dated as it gets but the song is too good
While it "shares certain similarities" with Joy Division, it also "shares certain similarities" with the Twin Peaks soundtrack; and only a blinkered Madchester fan would say it doesn't hold its own.
Not really the Cure, or is it? ;)
This one again:
I really like this one - another one where the band is playing like a chamber orchestra. The instrumental section in the middle is so gorgeous and the feelings conveyed by those rising and falling notes are just indescribable. Music really is so much more eloquent than words, when it's done like this...

It really is adding to the enjoyment of the experience as a new-ish Cure fan to hang out with people who've been there from the beginning. :)
I've not been a great fan of early Cure stuff (70s / early 80s) but I actually like this - it's very competent, and totally hilarious - like a musical spoof, which the postman's delivery style is just right for, and those hammed-up bits of guitar, and that naughty short keyboard note... hahahaha. :lol:
The lyrics are like a precis of a million pop songs... :rofl
Brett wishes to see this one live, and thinks Roger O'Donnell should do the postman impression, or otherwise just rope in an audience member and give them a lyric sheet bwahahahaha! :lol:

Yeah well, thanks, but I have only been there from 1985 onwards...
Here's the a-side of the Cult Hero single:
Many of Robert's very greatest songs come from that early incarnation, 1979-82 (they've had a couple of lineup changes but overall it's the "Lol on drums" era). Definitely The Cure at their most culturally authentic as a postpunk outfit.
To me the following era - Japanese Whispers, Blue Sunshine and The Top - might be even more fascinating, for its sheer creative chaos and shrooms-driven psychedelia, but I'm very sympathetic to those who claim that the very early Cure is the best one. In the latter half of the 80s they became a more conventional alternative band (though a brilliant one: KMKMKM and Disintegration have plenty of great music).
This remains one of the most astonishingly original rock songs
This hidden gem is another one. Incredible guitar work and somehow it all comes together gloriously
This is a great, era-defining single
Another one of their greatest singles. Great drum sound (courtesy of a duet between Lol and a drum machine) and everything else

This is subjective and completely debatable (and what annoys me about music critics btw). Music is a very personal thing, and we oughtn't go around making such definitive statements about what is the "greatest" and "best" in a whole progression of high-quality stuff through many years - it's really mostly personal preference. And a lot of people's personal preference is related to their adolescence and music becoming entwined with their identity formation etc.
To make such statements is also dismissive of other people's different (and equally valid) experience of the universe.
It's much less contentious to say, "I think..." and "I personally prefer, because..." - and it's much more objectively accurate. :P
So, here's a song Brett and I love far more than any of the early stuff we've heard - because all of us are our own people with our own journeys, and not a bunch of clones.
Biscuity Boyle asked me about Everybody Wants To Be A Cat, a song from The Aristocats (
the Walt Disney movie), being played live by The Cure.
Here it is, on a medley with Why Can't I Be You?, That Old Black Magic, Young At Heart (
two Frank Sinatra songs in a row!!), and The Lovecats.
July 1989, Wembley Arena (London). Aaaaaah, to have Entreat expanded to full show size... :kissing_closed_eyes:
.
However, there are other versions from the Prayer Tour, as Everybody Wants To Be A Cat was played not just on that show, far from that.
I own a bootleg of a 1989 show in Torino (Italy), where the medley is Why Can't I Be You and Everybody Wants To Be A Cat, with just a little bit of The Lovecats.
And I've watched that on another tour later on as well, can't remember which one, it was I think the Wish Tour or the Swing Tour.

Absolutely, without a doubt. That all our opinions and preferences represent a personal interpretation is the human condition - which is why I find that inserting qualifications at every turn to affirm that is pretty much redundant :D
QuoteAnd a lot of people's personal preference is related to their adolescence and music becoming entwined with their identity formation etc.
Again, can't argue with that. But let me offer a different model of taste: many of us across the western world grow up drinking instant coffee. It's milky, sweetened and perfectly nice. At some point, however, we are bound to encounter people drinking Arabic or Turkish or African blends, which have unusual, pungent flavors. Some of us will never try them; others will, only to reject them; and some will persist (for whatever reason - maybe they want to emulate the cool older friend, maybe they like the sensation of novelty etc) and develop a taste for the pungent black stuff, after which you can't really go back to the instant or to whatever creamy caffeinated cocktails they serve at Starbucks.
I feel like today we're being encouraged to follow our unexamined preferences because that's how you get people to buy whatever caffeinated milk slop you're selling. I'm no fan of the idea of The Canon; but rather that the acquisition of taste is hard work, a lifelong journey not so much of self-discovery as the discovery of artifacts of culture that are often challenging and anti-intuitive.
Clearly there's no easy one-to-one equivalence between types of coffee and different periods in the work of an artist. And yet, say one starts with Friday I'm in Love and then takes a deep dive into British punk and postpunk music, doubtless necessary to appreciate something like I'm Cold or The Hanging Garden: then I believe it becomes clear what I mean when I say that the early Cure is also the most culturally authentic.

It's much less contentious to say, "I think..." and "I personally prefer, because..." - and it's much more objectively accurate. :P
Absolutely, without a doubt. That all our opinions and preferences represent a personal interpretation is the human condition - which is why I find that inserting qualifications at every turn to affirm that is pretty much redundant :D
Well, that's where we clearly have a difference of opinion, because I think expressing clearly exactly what you think, and don't think, is never redundant. Also, it's not actually that hard to use qualifiers, and it's good practice to distinguish clearly between fact and personal opinion. It is, however, impossible for someone to distinguish between a person who's assuming they're the best judge of a topic (of which there are unfortunately many) and a person who's just finding it redundant to word themselves differently to such a person. :winking_tongue
On the rest I might take you up another time; meanwhile here's some more music I like and am listening to. Have a good one, and look after yourself.
Like this one (different lyrics to the studio version):

I tend to agree. Especially on the internet, where you can easily find some people who are out to "find something" to criticise in posts... (not so much here in this forum, thankfully!).
Here's one that gets lots of spins at our place, studio or live, we love it.
Wishing everyone a happy incipient Easter - despite the big mess we're in.

This is an Easter Bilby, from Australia.
Early version ("it's all been said before"):
Okay, so... Jumping Someone Else's Train.
Plus a bit of back story to its very strange video.
The Jumping Someone Else's Train video is actually a speeded up ride from the cabin of a London-Victoria station to Brighton train, via Battersea Park (a nod to Pink Floyd?), Clapham Junction, East Croydon, Salfords, Horley, Gatwick Airport, Three Bridges (the main Crawley station, albeit not the more central one), and on to Haywards Heath, then Brighton.
I haven't found such a single video at normal speed.
But here's two videos following more or less the same route.
One's too short, and the other one is following a slightly different route (departs from a different London station).
1) London-Victoria to Gatwick Airport, via Battersea Park, Clapham Junction, East Croydon, Salfords, Horley.
2) London Bridge to Brighton. Starts from a different London station than the Cure video (London Bridge instead of Victoria), and follows a different route through South London, via New Cross Gate, Sydenham, Penge West, Norwood Junction, and ends up on the Brighton main line at East Croydon, and follows on to Gatwick, then on to Three Bridges (Crawley), then on to Haywards Heath, then Brighton.
So, you pick the part from Victoria station to Gatwick from the first video, and the part from Gatwick to Brighton from the second video, edit them together, and then you sing veeeeeeeeeery sloooooooooowwwwwwwwly, and there you are, new remix.
If any viewer is familiar with the area, they might perhaps recognize this or that building, or realise that some have been demolished and replaced.
Kinda "topical" these days, as I keep hoping that "maybe someday" some things will be better...

Yep, I realised this many years ago. Additionally, in 1999, I made that train journey for the first time. :cool
This song rings a bell. It reminds me of a pathetic scene, and a particularly dark time in my life.
That said, it's one of the songs I like best off Wild Mood Swings. Oh well. :D
Covering The Doors (30 years ago for a compilation album celebrating an anniversary of US record company Elektra):
One "freak show" of a video and I think it is quite fun to watch! 30 years ago (Sept 1990) it was released as a single.
(That must be Fiction Records boss Chris "Bill" Parry at the start doing a guest spot?!)
Always topical.
And applicable in all sorts of details.
This evening, this one's for Rafael Nadal, who played exceptional tennis and bagelled the increasingly odious Novak Djokovic in the first set en route to winning in straight sets. Well done. :smth023
In fact, yesterday I listened to the whole audio of that entire gig, up loud - a nice way of sidelining the American circus - you can't listen to radio or turn on the TV here at the moment...
PERSONAL SANITY PLAYLIST FOR THIS WEEKThis week, I'm listening to a lot of Cure and Australian Indigenous music. Here's some of the Cure songs that are helping me stay sane.
First and foremost, a perfect song for all this:
Another obvious one for the situation dominating public life in the West just now:
One whose mood captures the dislocation, nausea and darkness of that situation - with a fan video that adds to the imagery:
Apologies for the sound on that one, it seems a bit clipped. Here's my favourite version of it so far - showing what happens if you just keep on getting better and better at this:
Another song that simply fits the mood:
And of course:
And just because:
And because it's at the heart of all this:
And because we can take refuge in the microcosms we create for ourselves and those we love:
...that's a nice cross-section of relevant songs.
Stay sane, everyone. ♥
I like your new signature quote,
@MeltingMan! :) Merry Christmas! 🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄
I'm going to dedicate this next one to my grandmother, whom I miss. A warm spot in my childhood and an avid snailmail correspondent once we emigrated. I can't believe it's been over 20 years since she died.
I needed a song to disinfect the house after having some fishy guests with terrible manners. :1f635:
I chose this one mostly because it matched my mood - but I would like to hear other good choices for such a purpose! So nominate away. :cool
I've recently found this YouTube account that has HEAPS of good quality audio of The Cure concerts (sounds best via headphones for me, and has been my walking music all week). Today I've been listening to the 3rd Disintegration show in Sydney 2019 :)
I'm finding it impossible to listen to this too much (that point, if it exists, is entirely theoretical):
...and am recommending and sharing it far and wide to anyone who only has casual radio acquaintance with this band. OMG what I missed out on when that was me.
Quote from: MeltingMan on February 09, 2021, 20:34:064:35 😲😄
Indeed. Put a thought bubble above Mr Gallup's head and fill it in for fun. Extra points for outrageousness. :lol:
"Gawd I hate this drumming, I can't stand it anymore!"
"This is such a shit bass, I need a new one!"
"Why did I join this fvcking band? Could've had a PhD by now!"
"To think I turned down a spot to learn drystone walling to play with these clowns - and could have left a worthy monument to my existence for hundreds and hundreds of years after my demise..."
"I hate these long bloody encores. Could've been at t'pub half an hour ago!"
...etc etc...your turn!
@MeltingMan, on one of the recent concert recordings - I'm fairly sure it's the Hyde Park one - Roger O'Donnell chucks his tambourine on the floor at the end of a song. We've always "thought bubbled" that one with, "I didn't join The Cure to play the effing tambourine!"

Quote from: SueC...etc etc...your turn!
No idea. I was just surprised when Lol threw the drumsticks over his shoulder. 😄
Bwahaha! :)
...I can't see your song,
@MeltingMan! Maybe a region thing... what was it?
Me...
Quote from: SueCMaybe a region thing...what was it?
Possibly. I can't watch certain of your content either (in other threads, no April Fool's joke). 🤔
Quote from: MeltingMan on April 01, 2021, 18:02:25Sorry for being off-topic. 🤔
Do you have a carpet beater,
@MeltingMan? ...then you could give yourself ten of the best on your posterior for being off-topic. :winking_tongue
And I still don't know what Cure song you were listening to, and had you told me, you would not have been off-topic! :beaming-face :angel
And since I don't have a carpet beater, I'm now going to have to listen to a Cure song (oh the imposition :kissing_closed_eyes:), so that I don't go off-topic...
... :1f629: I couldn't use the official YT track because for some reason that song is blocked in my country... (too many politicians thinking it sounds too close to home at the moment??? :evil:)
...ah,
@MeltingMan, I see you have now rectified the situation! :cool
Which means the carpet beater won't be necessary. :angel
Nice choice and logically I'm thinking of this one next...
Happy Easter to you! 🐰
Good night from me! 🛏️
Quote from: SueCAnd I still don't know what Cure song you were listening to,
Ocean from Join The Dots. Good night,
@SueC. 🌖
You people - well, meaning
@MeltingMan and
@Ulrich - are so aware of the phases of the moon that I want to play you an astronomical Cure song but
not Underneath The Stars or
Jupiter Crash...but right now I can't think of any. Perhaps you can help... as both of you don't still have significant listening gaps in the catalogue...
And Ulrich, I swear you are "choreographing" your music for specific occasions - just look at your last choice! :)
I'm listening to various things by various people including The Cure today as I make my way through various chores. Here's one that I'll pick out for being musically very beautiful:
Quote from: SueC on April 02, 2021, 10:45:21And Ulrich, I swear you are "choreographing" your music for specific occasions - just look at your last choice! :)
Yes, it was an obvious choice for a day like that. (Doesn't mean I always pre-plan, often it's more spontaneous.)
If you got half an hour, you can listen to this soundtrack:
...I can really relate to that today. :1f62a:
And then it's better to have a song like that, than not to.
It's been some week, and sometimes you bottom out even though you swim swim swim with all you've got most of the time. I think we've all been there.
PS: Thanks
@Ulrich, that soundtrack stuff is really good music to journal to. No lyrics to distract me and just the right mood.
I always liked this b-side (2001) and was pleased they even started playing it live (e.g. it can be heard on "Festival 2005" dvd)!
I've been dreaming a lot recently, and RS made an appearance last night. It felt quite cryptic... he was standing on a stage, wearing a tshirt which depicted several hazy people and underneath the image there was the word "lost".
I have no idea what it means. I'm hopeful it's my own 'stuff' being worked through, rather than any intuitive thing (as I hope RS is not feeling lost, and is safe and well 😘😘)
This may be dark, but has way too much musical energy and passion to be lie-down-in-it. Love this track and think it's been improved over time - the studio track wasn't bad, but this is much fuller and richer and just totally nails it.
Brett the other day was comparing
One Hundred Years off the original album to live and said he personally couldn't make up his mind which he liked better- the stripped-backness and coldness of the studio version or the cavernousness of the more recent live performances!
While outside in the garden with my relatives and their puppy, I had an idea what song to post. :happy
They had a puppy? Here's another song that suggests itself. :winking_tongue
That last one just nails it. I wish they played this live a bit more. ♥
Head on the Door was released on the 26th of August 1985, so I dipped back into it, and Six Different Ways is the track that has been my "earworm" over the last few days.
I like this phase of The Cure. RS seemed to overcome his heavy heart to a degree, and bloomed into a lighter and more playful soul.
I know I've dropped this song into this thread umpteen times before, but I happened to be listening to the Curætion CDs while trying to get the energy up to assemble a decent dinner, and it just leapt out at me all over again how therapeutic this song is:
It is so good to know I'm not the only one who feels in their bones how insane this world is - specifically, the human component of it. This song gives voice to a thing that is often just "backgrounded" at our peril...
Just listening to Seventeen Seconds. Great sophomore album.

Isn't it funny how we all get better at stuff, but look worse? :winking_tongue
The "likes" on a forum are a pretty blunt tool - I think the more recent version is far more accomplished and has way more pizzaz. I know the acoustic - electric thing doesn't make for a fair comparison here, but I pretty generally think that this band is peaking live in recent years, not 30 years ago - which is more than I can say for most other bands. :cool

Today it's exactly 40 years since The Cure released their album "Pornography"!
I'd never seen this "live in studio" performance before:
Let's celebrate Simon's b-day by listening to this:
Listening to "Breathe" right now. I love that song
A rare cover version, performed ~20 years ago:
probably another one that brings back to many bad memories to be performed more often....
Here it is, the "Faith healer" cover, Hyde Park 2002 (I was there!):
Long time since my last visit the curefans... But the new tour has renewed my blood :)
At the moment listening The last day of summer, but I'm hooked to And nothing is forever
"Alone"... can't believe I was there, in the first show of "Songs of a Lost World" tour... :heart-eyes
"Secrets" which is my favorite song on 17 Seconds, however I prefer the live version to the studio one!
Great one, like the ones in 1984
I'm listening to some of the new songs in preparation for the concert...
QuoteThis is live but I edited and mixed it to sound studio.
Most perfect performance, Robert sings it so lovely
Everything she tries to tell me
leaves me open mouthed and still
Foolishly arrange tomorrow
the way I always will
Lullaby, 1992-11-18, Birmingham.
My current fave from the "lost wishes":
I started recently to listen to all 1996 shows (if I found them and if the soundquality is accetable :heart-eyes
Here like in most shows some drunk lyrics, especially in the figurehead and in why can't I be you. The beginnen of a forest is also very special, reminds me on th 70ies...
Reeves shared this one on FB (and yes, it is cold here today)...
I'm listening to the most incredible love song ever written "Plainsong"
"The upstairs room is cool and bright
We can go up there in summer
And dance all night
Your sister started talking at a minute after ten
So everyone jumped up
And then fell over again
In April, you can join them
And stare at me
At the ghost from your past...
I don't think I can love
Anyone but you, dear
That's for sure"
"I watch in fascination like a vampire bat"
As you can imagine, I've never been a big fan of dancefloor/techno etc. music, but I listened to the cd single of this cover in the car yesterday and enjoyed it!
Maybe a bit obvious today, but anyway...
One of the remixes from
Torn Down that I really enjoyed btw.
"From The Edge Of The Deep Green Sea" -------------what an incredible piece of music!
