    Ginger and Mike, thanks having chosen a song from the eighties band The Cure. My favourite song from them is A Forest.

    Very nice to react to The Cure. Thnx.
    One of my favorite bands in the 80's.
    Seen them some ten times, starting in obscure small venues over Europe (100 to 500 people).
    Later in a tent and then at festivals, Torhout Werchter (famous Belgian double festival), 1981 and 1990 and Pinkpop (famous Dutch festival), 1986.
    Boys don't cry and The Forest are my favorites.

    Play For Today was a BBC TV series that ran from the late '70s to early '80s: a stand-alone play every week.

    My favourite track has to be Prayers for Rain. Disintegration is one of the best albums made. But the early post-punk the Cure is soo good.

    My twin sister (she had everything The Cure ever released) and I discovered The Cure, among other alternative artists on CFNY. That was the greatest radio station that existed in the 80s. We saw them in concert in Toronto in the 90s. Thanks for the trip down memory lane!

    Fascination Street is the one for me (that bass line is a killer). But the entire Disintegration album is a sonic masterpiece. This was a nice early Cure song.

    My favourites are A Forest and Charlotte Sometimes, but the versions from Concert 1984-album (or some other live versions as well). They are just about a 100 times better than the original studio versions.

    Never heard of The Cure, but then the 80's flew over my head. Liked the song. When I heard the voice and it sounded familiar. Good solid sound throughout the song..Nice choice :)

    I remember seeing this video as a teenager and my mom saying ''the reason why that guy looks so cranky is because he is trying to come to terms with being gay. He began to embrace his sexuality later on''. And in my young mind, I was thinking of the video for ''Lullaby'' and wondering what sort of sexuality involves being eaten by a spider.

    my first gf constantly played a mix of the cure and a a guy called Niels Jensen, Niels Jensen gives you a headache in 30 seconds flat and somehow my brain mixed those two together so as soon as I hear the cure I get nauseous even if I like a bunch of bands that have similiar sound.

    weird choice! oh the 80's and the slapped together videos by major artists (thinking rolling stones here too). I was a huge cure fan, really only getting into them in '89 when i was 16. I wonder what you would think of "the figurehead" live in berlin.
