Smith is an excellent guitarist. I'd goes far to say he's one of the most underrated player ever. And I say that because of the amazing guitar work he did on the first album. You hear all the studio demos and rarities with all the brilliant solos and feedback , and it's all him. He doesn't about being a guitar player much, since I reckon he just sees it just as his tool for composing but damn, he's good. :)
Yes, very true whatever you said about Robert Smith's guitar playing. He is definitely the most underrated and also the most overlooked as a guitarist primarily due to his image and Cure's songs. He will be never be compared to the guitar greats and guitar heroes because for those artists it is all about techniques, solos and complexities. For Robert, the song is the hero and he only uses it for mood painting. :-)
@@cybertaiga9534 Johnny Marr said pretty much the same thing recently - he said he was really underated and watching Robert play in the early Cure was an influence on him.
The young and gorgeous Robert Smith gets better and better through the years. 40 years after fame he's always better as a singer and guitarist. The bassline is killing ! Love this !
My favorite song of theirs for sure. Such an underrated song. The synth and the bass are so ON POINT. Oh, what the hell. What am I saying? The whole bloody thing is amazing. Goddam The Cure... So great.
age having nothing to do with their talent, but really just kids here. This song is my favorite of all their works. Haunting guitars and keys, beautifully composed, one can really feel the quiet house, the dark, empty room, and the deep nocturnal and dreamlike undertones of the environment.
2024 Anyone?? 44 years later...amazing. I'm not old enough to remember this when it was released but I enjoy it immensely..melancholic and it goes so ssslooow.
Listened to it over and over, getting more hypnotized as I did. It is amazing that someone so young could have produced something so great. One of my all time favorites. This video is a gem. ❤️
What I loved about their Reflections tour was that both Bob and Simon were playing Fenders again. You only know how much of a difference those make once they pick them up again after many years and you go "Oh, that SOUND!"
No doubt a little Joy Division influence in Simon's playing, but still one of the best bassists of the post-punk/goth world. I even sometimes prefer his work over Hooky's but we might as well be comparing apples and oranges with that argument.
Thank for sharing! The Cure is my favorite band! I met Simon in Scottland while i was working in Glasgow as a truck driver. I tried to have a picture with him but then i realized it was not Simon and we had a good laugh😂😂😂10 years after i met Bob but didnt approach him. I had a doubt and didnt want to bother the scottish Bob😂😂😂
Gr8 vid and super hypnotic song love it and the words just do it for me... pretending to swim , pretending to swim,the hrs i take goin so slow !! yep good one Mr Smith
I play at night in your house I live another life Pretending to swim In your house I hear no sound in your house Silence In the empty rooms I drown at night in your house Pretending to swim Pretending to swim
@warminator - Yes! I remember seeing the 'A Reflection' bit from this show on the 'Staring At The Sea - The Images' VHS tape and then wanting to watch the whole thing, especially knowing 'Play For Today' would've been next up! And it *is* such a great version, too! The rest of the gig's great also 😀
Awesome live version...Seventeen seconds has always been my favorite Cure album. This looks like the same footage on "staring at the Sea" the parts between the vids with them doing "the final sound" right before the "a forest" video. Thanks for posting it
I play at night in your house I live another life Pretending to swim In your house I change the time in your house The hours I take Go so slow I hear no sound in your house Silence In the empty rooms I drown at night in your house Pretending to swim Pretending to swim

woah. They were just kids. well, weren't we all? LOL! I had no idea they were this good and that Robert Smith played guitar so well. Actually I had no idea he played guitar at all. I can hear how the Cars were influenced by this movement in British pop.
they should release a booklet with all the instrumental parts (Im searching particularly for all basslines) from their era 1979-1982 so we can have access to them as accurate as it goes as on the internet I'm never really sure whether those TABs are right mostly they are partly but not 100% :/ great performance great song.. what else to say? The Cure

Simon’s bass sounds amazing!
Yeah, very nice. A classic riff.
I love that Cure era 1980-1982
Seventeen Seconds
Faith
Pornography
Best Cure albums ever
Agreed.
💯

He's more than good mate, he's seriously excellent.
Exactly and anyone can try playing AND singing Cure songs like Just like heaven simultaneously :) Only then they realise how difficult it is.
❤
I wish I could go back in time and watch them play, this concert
Seventeen Seconds definitely is my favorite album
just awesone
4 sure!
El mío también
Same here
Es tremendo... Mucha psicodelia en el post punk
Simon was 20 at the time and his playing was already incredibly solid
Difficult to say there is favorite song. The cure between 1980 and 1982 were magical...I had the luck to see in there 82 tour.
This is literally one of the greatest songs of all time And I’m not kidding ✨ 🌙
True, I just listening this over and over again..Very fresh.
Could not agree more
The young and gorgeous Robert Smith gets better and better through the years. 40 years after fame he's always better as a singer and guitarist. The bassline is killing ! Love this !
their best album easily. "17 Seconds" is pure musical perfection
Faith

Disintegration is considered the best because it is the most atmospheric.
My favorite song of theirs for sure. Such an underrated song. The synth and the bass are so ON POINT. Oh, what the hell. What am I saying? The whole bloody thing is amazing. Goddam The Cure... So great.
That 80s synth is what i live for. Haha
It did change music.
Same!
👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
yeeeeeeeees
I feel sad for the world not having 20-21 year old kids like this anymore
uhmm :(
Yeah. I am not sure what happened.
@@gentillygirl545 nothing happened, you're just talking nonsense
@@gentillygirl545 they got old😭
I'm 21 and I dress like this and listen to this but okay.
age having nothing to do with their talent, but really just kids here. This song is my favorite of all their works. Haunting guitars and keys, beautifully composed, one can really feel the quiet house, the dark, empty room, and the deep nocturnal and dreamlike undertones of the environment.
perfect version , surely their best
Makes me dream of good old times again when i used to listen to this song up and down~...how happy the people that were there the other day 🥰🎧🎶🎸
Probably one of the best versions of this song EVER ! (and I heard many!) With wonderful keyboards...
Absolute gem of a track

Perfection... Love Simon's '77 P Bass...
What I loved about their Reflections tour was that both Bob and Simon were playing Fenders again. You only know how much of a difference those make once they pick them up again after many years and you go "Oh, that SOUND!"
I wonder if Simon'sFender bass on the Reflections tour was the same as his original one (one of the two he had in the late '70s anyway)
Saw them in 1980 in Holland. Pure magic. This song and "Never enough" are my favorites of a hole list with favorites.
Best version ever.
Questa versione di 'in your house' è fantastica, il basso di Simon e la chitarra di Robert sono sublimi .... wow
what a bass sound
No doubt a little Joy Division influence in Simon's playing, but still one of the best bassists of the post-punk/goth world. I even sometimes prefer his work over Hooky's but we might as well be comparing apples and oranges with that argument.
Alex Desjardin Simon Gallup is the coolest bass player after JJ Burnel, whose influence is even more noticeable. Even in his appeareance.
@Alex Desjardin Um, okay?
Hooky is original but not half the musician Gallup is
i forget how amazing this track is...
My favorite the cure song ....
Scream!!!! I am so in love with this!!! Thakyou!!!
brilliant...so totally refreshing and different...
What a sound miss the early 80s
Flawlessly wonderful
Apart from where Bob forgets the words. LOL
Love this song!...I listen to it on repeat when penning poetry.
Such a great song. Such a great bass line, too.
wow awesome quality
Great song, very underrated.
La plupart des chansons non commerciales (et moins connues du public) sont de véritables bijoux de créativité et de talent !
Thank for sharing! The Cure is my favorite band! I met Simon in Scottland while i was working in Glasgow as a truck driver. I tried to have a picture with him but then i realized it was not Simon and we had a good laugh😂😂😂10 years after i met Bob but didnt approach him.

I love this song, all the early stuff from 80's is great ! Thx for posting !
One of my favourite Cure tracks...so imagine my surprise when I saw The Cure open with this song in Islington Dec 2003. Incredible.
Just love how loud the keyboard is on this! All instruments actually! Great mix!
Gracias Robert por tu música.
Gr8 vid and super hypnotic song love it and the words just do it for me...
pretending to swim , pretending to swim,the hrs i take goin so slow !!
yep good one Mr Smith
The bass player is a Bad Ass............this is how the bass should be played!
Great bass heavy band............great song.
So hard to play and sing at the same time. Masterpiece.
L'album "Seventeen Second " è secondo solo a "Disintegration"....! Forse....! Grandissimo Robert e i The Cure! 🤩
This is the kid of music that is majestic and deep wether you ar sober, stoned or drunk. Marvelous!
Its emotional music
Awesome sound
The best rockband undergraund regards from Mexico.
dope ... lifelong fan
Great band. HISTORICAL
Wow, never seen this clip b4. Brilliant.
If i could be there...return on 18 July 1980.
Just brilliant!

Oh My God! Outstanding! Thank you so much!
wow this is amazing sound quality. one of my all-time fav cure songs. thank you!
One of my favorite songs this band has always been phenomenal
Magnifique façon de rester dans cette maison....
One of my favorite songs by The Cure, from 1 of my favorite albums as well. I used to cover this with my band..
Amazing quality. Thank you. I almost feel like I'm there. 1980, yet better quality than so many other videos here taken much more recently.
I play at night in your house
