Now that I think about, the three triple threats are ones I never listen to anymore.

The Dance Hits-Let's Go To Bed, The Walk, The Lovecats.

The Mega Hits-Just Like Heaven,Lovesong, Friday I'm In Love.

Yet I can't really say I hate them, because I Do occasionally listen to Friday, and there are parts of The Love Cats that are so classy.

I can't Stand Just Say Yes....

Club America is probably the only Cure song i can't make it thru all the way... it's just soooo bad....  i always keep an open mind with any of their songs but that one is just complete garbage.

I often jump away from End while listening to Wish - not because it's in any way bad, but because it's the only song on there that I don't think is pretty much perfect and I could be going back to the bliss of Doing The Unstuck for instance. Frankly it's lucky End is on there because I can't press the stop button on any of the other songs on that album when I need to go do something else.   :?

Eh, there's a couple of songs on other albums I tend to genuinely skip and the portion of 3IB others have mentioned does show how much they were still learning at the time as teenagers a few years before I was born...  doesn't seem fair to hold that against them though.  :)

corrosiveheadpollution

yeah END on Wish is a bit boring but i still like it... you know what song is freaking awesome that has only recently become one of my favs though? CUT which is a couple songs before END.  I have heard it a hundred times and only thought it was okay but just within the last few weeks i can't stop listening to it.

I can't listen to Friday I'm In Love anymore, mainly because the radio killed it. People who barely know The Cure always associate them with that song and in my mind its kind of overrated to begin with.  I also don't like Mint Car, the lyrics are silly and the song is kind of absurd.  I know people love Lovecats and Let's Go To Bed but I don't like 'em either.  I really am not too attracted to the bright, happy, sillier side of The Cure.  But I do like Hot Hot Hot, High, Dressing Up, Close To Me, Before Three.  But those songs are sooo good I can't resist them.  But in terms of songs I don't like, I think I can name as many I don't like on WMS alone that would add up to the same amount from every other release altogether. One song I find to be ridiculously underrated is Lament.  Great key intro and it just has a wonderful tune and atmosphere to it.  Best song on Japanese Whispers.  8)  But the band have released an awful lot of material and it was going to be hard for them not to make all classics.
"You're dying for the hope is gone, from here we go nowhere again."

corrosiveheadpollution

yeah Lament is one of the best from that era for sure.  I love Friday i'm in Love and all the happy ones as well but it is true what you say about people and associating them with those songs.  My friends all say how much they love the cure but if you play them anything other then what's on the greatest hits album they say it sucks... which is ignorant and stupid

I KNOW WHAT YOU GUYS ARE TALKING ABOUT!!!

My friends claim "Oh yeah, The Cure rocks!"

But they base that on songs like "A Forest", "Friday I'm In Love", "Lovecats", and "Boys Don't Cry"!!!

Arrrrr! It kind of ticks me off, I mean...give the band a chance, world!

They're much much much better than precious U2, Bruce Springstein, or Duran Duran combined, yet do we see them being named off on the list of "greatest 80s rockers"? NO, WE DONT!!!  :cry:

The world seems to only like what it hears over and over again. If it's on the radio, like the repetetive crud that is POPULAR MUSIC, they fall to their knees in musical heaven to songs that degrade women and promote drug abuse!

Wow, isn't that something you want your kids listening to in their free time? Songs about gangstas and drive-bys and prostitution?

Seems to be the case around my school. If you even dare mention a "Siouxsie" or a "UK DECAY", you get the stink-eye, because none of those bands are on the POPULAR radio stations. If you can't hear it on local pop stations, it MUST not be good!

So hey, kids! Go listen to that music introduced to you not ten minutes ago on the radio, or the few decent tunes featured in your "GUITAR HERO" games like Metallica and Dragonforce. But don't you dare decide to step outside the norm and find bands on your own, bands with unique style that died out years before the 2000's...that would be SIN!  ;)

Of course, I am just being sarcastic. People are entitled to like what they want...unless that means demoting my favorite band to my face!  :P

Rant over.


corrosiveheadpollution

haha wow that was quite a rant.  Yeah thank goodness for the Cure... i don't know what i would listen to if i didn't have them.  I just found some cd on the internet that has a bunch of cure songs done as lullabyes for babies.  My wife is havin a baby boy this May so i just ordered it.  He's a Cure fan already and he doesn't even know it yet.
