Awww Robert 😢i cried seeing you cry 😢 you look so sad 😞 I've loved The Cure for ever and ever ❤️ and all these years later still sound brilliant 👏 LOVE YOU FOREVER ROBERT ❤❤❤❤❤
Yes! I'm 59! Love Robert Smith! ❤ I've been a fan of The Cure since "Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me" I bought the cd in the summer of '87 because it was on sale. I'd never heard of them. I'm so glad that I took a chance and bought that cd.
I have a feeling he's been overwhelmed and appreciative of the crowds they have been getting. And rightly so. One of the best bands of the last 50 years.
I think you're exactly right. He seems to have really connected with his fans in a way I've never seen. Hopefully, he realizes just how loved he truly is.
Robert is aging...he's been around forever...and I can't imagine the gratitude and love he holds for all of us.... it shows. He sounds amazing still. He is so genuine
I have lost my Mother, Father, Wife of 27 yrs in the past 10 yrs.. Thank You Robert and band for helping me and thousands of others cope with grief through your beautiful music.. Edit: through all the grief I managed to stay clean and sober. Today I celebrate 16 years. That’s 5,872 One Day at a Time’s. ☮️♥️
I'm so sorry. Any death of a loved one is hard to deal with on its own let alone 3 in just 10 years. I'm glad you were able to find comfort in the beauty of The Cure's music.
Sorry for you...another kind of grief for me...a very sad and violent breakup...I find in Robert Smith's music that humanity that sometimes lacks in people hearts...art makes us more human...and help us.
I’m so sorry. My deepest condolences to you. I lost my beloved aunt and maternal grandparents in the last 15 years. It’s been difficult. Going to the Cure shows was incredibly emotional. Robert Smiths lyrics resonate so if your missing a loved one, tears will flow. I had a good cry at the shows. Sending good thoughts your way ❤❤
Written when Robert was 30,I think those lyrics echo really deep in him,now 63, aging and having lost family members,It's the thing I like the most about Robert,he's humble,very sensitive,deeply human,the kind of artist you can trust,his music coming from a pure and honest place,this guy helped me in this life...in hard moments ,gratitude forever,from the bottom of my heart,thank you Robert.
@@regionregion-ym9xl thank you,I've been in Portugal,a short voyage in 1988,I was 16,I remember very well warm people,very friendly ,good food,nice memories,take care.👋
The fact that he can still get so emotional performing after all of these years speaks VOLUMES about the beautiful, sensitive and humble man that he is. A true artist and one of the best poets in history. Seeing them live was a literal dream come true for me 🖤
Wow,the man is being real.all of you concerned about his health,even if he is ill give him a break.even anything he deserves Privacy,shit he has been in the spotlight most of his life.let him be real.
He clearly could be doing a much better job. Just look at Simon. They’re both the same age. It’s not about looks per say . It’s just about longevity. It will be a sad day when Robert leaves us.
His music is timeless. It speaks to people of all ages. First listened in 1989, still listening in 2023. It becomes ever so more relatable with the passing of time. Will still be listening 20 years from now.
i feel exactly the same. I came of age with their music back in the early 90s and i feel like their songs kinda grow with you. Their meaning changes with you, in a very relevant, profound way, and at the same time they ground you, they makes you remember who you are.
He really is the saviour of our universe and still so relevant. Strange times with the gorillaz proves that. Disintegration prayer tour was the first time i managed to see them live. The feeling when they stepped out was euphoric 🧟♀️❤✌🤘
One of their best songs…. “"I think it's dark and it looks like rain, " you said "And the wind is blowing Like it's the end of the world, " you said "And it's so cold, it's like the cold if you were dead" Then you smiled for a second "I think I'm old and I'm feeling pain, " you said "And it's all running out Like it's the end of the world, " you said "And it's so cold, it's like the cold if you were dead" Then you smiled for a second Sometimes you make me feel Like I'm living at the edge of the world Like I'm living at the edge of the world "It's just the way I smile, " you said”
Just want to say thanks for writing that out. It caught my eye and reading it took me right back to the 80s and thoughts and feelings I haven't experienced in a LONG time.
I'd love to give him a big hug. Tell him even though I've heard all his songs 1,000 times before, some days they can make me cry too. That's the beauty of a true artist such as himself.
On Depeche Mode's "Ultra" album the songs "Useless" and "It's No Good" have the same dark beauty the "Disintegration" songs have, especially "Plainsong", "Lullaby" and the title track.@@indiana1793
Hi...I lost my baby brother coming up on 5 years ago on July 23, and it feels like just yesterday...my God, idk how he doesn't choke on the words; his music is his emotion, his communication, and he gives it all to us Cure fans, tells us his stories, albeit in a lyrically cryptic way sometimes... but we are his fan family, you gave him your love in person, that's so great you could experience this, I'm afraid I would have cried along with him; for him, and for me. Thank you for sharing. ✨❤️✨
Robert Smith lost his brother, I also lost one of my brothers in 2020. The Cure was my late brother’s favorite band, so my sister and my eldest brother and I all went to this concert in ATL. It was very emotional for us. I understand that lingering sadness… I wish we could have gotten to actually meet RS. He seems like a kind soul.
So sorry for your emotional pain. I think Robert Smith is an introvert who loves to write and play music but not necessarily play it in front of people. His music is calming and healing in ways.
@@tiredofit4761very true wat you just said I do believe he's introvert and not really craving the celeb limelight but the music is were it's at for him so he has to do few things in that world for the sake of the band n music I guess.
Very 1st gig. The Cure and Souxsie and the banshees ❤1979 will never forget.. 😊 I'm still following Robert Smith at 58 years old.. with my grown-up sons. 😊 Timeless music 🎶 🎵 ❤ Love you, Rob Smith 😍 ✌️ ❤
It must be really difficult to sing such an emotional song,I find it difficult listening to this masterpiece without having tears in my eyes.It’s so melancholic the thought of being happy when all over the world there’s so much sadness.Well done Mr.Smith for holding it together under extreme circumstances.This is why millions of us Cure fans regard him as the King of Kings
@@Fakename70 Dude was trying to "correct" me but culdn't even understand what i accurately said. Do i have to explain with a drawing to you, too? Please, don't leave school early, people.
@@liberispuritatem Actually, Patrick said he’s “heard of the Cure” since 1983, not this particular song. So, yeah, I corrected you for jumping down someone’s throat when they didn’t actually say anything worthy of that. Maybe Reading Comprehension isn’t your strong suit.
Been a Cure fan since the 80s. My husband and I married in 1996, after we met in high school in 1984. We chose to spend our honeymoon money on front row tickets to see the Cure in Chicago. It wasn’t our first time, but we never sat in the front before, and we were given drum sticks after the show when they heard our story. It is one of the greatest concert memories we have, right along with being handed the mic to sing Everything Counts with Depeche Mode’s David Gahan at the Milwaukee Summer Fest in the 1990s.
That's a pretty amazing story. You're money bought you something that will be one of the best memories between the two of you for the rest of your lives.
@k8shrew69 my wife & I have a similar backstory. We were at a party at a mutual friend's house and she was the only other person besides me dressed in black. I didn't use "a line" on her, we just started talking music - they were playing metal and we wanted Bauhaus or The Cure or anything else - and it was as natural as our whole relationship has been ever since. That was January 1992 and we're still together. ❤️
Been to Summerfest. Saw RHCP in 2016, I think or 2017. After The Getaway was released. Lovely time in Milwaukee.. passed down rain most of the concert. Froze my tits off. Soaked to the skin and walked back to hotel after show. Sneakers were waterlogged the next day.Squeaked all the way back to Floriduh! First stop on my Last Gasp tour. Love music so fucking much it almost hurts.
I always loved this song. I get emotional every time i hear it. 💔💜🖤💚 Disintegration is my favorite Cure album. I love all of them..but that one is the one that sold me forever on "The Cure." I felt everything. You are legends! ❤
I´ve seen a couple of videos with tears on his face the last year. And what I find so beautiful is that he doesn´t hide his emotions. He also never makes it into a big deal. They are just there and it seems like he is ok with that. I mean of course it is hard to be sad (or whatever emotion the tears comes from) but still he seems to accept them. That is not easy. At all. Espacially not in front of so many people. But he makes it feel alright to be sad. And to cry. And to show emotions. It´s just human. And I love him for it.
nature give us emotions, at 69 i`ll tell ya they mean more and differently as we age because we understand them and dont have to play tuff. its part of nature and being human.
EXACTLY, being yourself and showing your emotions in front of so many ppl so openly just shows how well he is connected to the mass consciousness which surrounds us all...the more ppl tap into that the better humans we all become as a result.❤
because when he wrote this he was sincere and put his heart in it like artists do, so now he recognizes those emotions whenever he sings them even after 30 years
Plainsong enters your body and you’re never the same again. I cried too when I heard it live in Salt Lake in June. It is one of my top 20 favorite songs ever. The intro, the words, the lack of a chorus; it’s a perfect Cure song. It’s a perfect song.
This song has been evoking chills or tears from me for over 30 years, it never just plays in the background without affecting me in some way. I can imagine the man who wrote it has a real world connection to the lyrics, rather than it being metaphorical. The Cure always touch me, without fail.
I grew up loving this band. You have to hand it to Robert for sticking to his look. He will be buried with his red lipstick and eyeshadow. What a guy. South Park was right, Disintegration is the best Album ever.
I was never particularly a Cure fan ,but that is beautiful to see a real worn person crying ugly tears in front of everyone. He is blessed to have that space where he is loved by a whole tribe
The Cure isn't for everyone, but Robert Smith can write some of the most beautifully sweet, deeply powerful and soul-wrenching lyrics. His fans absolutely adore him (myself included).
I never took any notice of the Cure. I haven't ever even tried to explore their music, heard some on tv or radio but I wasn't moved to explore it further. I still don't get it but obviously he's liked and admired and has held his audience for many years so I respect him for that.
There are no words to describe Robert Smith...the melodious, mysterious man who sings like an angel.. He brings joy, empathy, and genuineness to a lost 🌎 world . Saw him in Cleveland @ 🌸 Blossom..Bucket list dream.. Once in a lifetime..just like heaven❤
I just sobbed watching this. I was at this show as well. This was the opening song when I saw them on the prayer tour in Atlanta when I was 14 (I'm 47 now). And it was their opening song when I saw them in Atlanta in 2016. They are forever my heart and spirit. The greatest band to ever grace the planet.
I was at the prayer concert in Atlanta when I was 14. I stood outside Turtle records waiting for them to open so I could get good seats. We had 3 row center. I didn’t tell my parents I was going into the city, I went with a kid from school that had a car. I payed for everything, he drove. I spent a total of $150. We got shirts, food and gas both ways. I’m 47 now, 2 adult children. They love all the music I grew up on, and some newer stuff. But will never be able to enjoy a show like this at todays cost. So sad how the young people are priced out of experiencing life like we did.
Among his many wonderful traits is Robert's concern for the fans. Alone among his contemporaries Robert stood up to the Ticketmaster monster and insisted prices stayed 0:08 affordable. Sorry you weren't able to enjoy this tour with your kids but maybe next time ...
He lost his brother recently and has had a few emotional moments on stage since. Not sure if the words in the song remind him of his brother or he is just still grieving….who knows.
His sweet smile is everything! His face seems to show the beautiful heart within him. To see him wipe away his tears, broke me. Honestly, The Cure’s music has evoked many tears, many emotions. I’m so grateful for Robert Smith, The Cure, for giving us all the amazingly beautiful music that they have. 🙏🏽❤️🩹
Du coup je pleure aussi...quel homme sensible Robert Smith, très émouvant. J'❤ Et quel superbe morceau, tout le monde peut se reconnaître dans la musique de the cure...the best. I love you for ever Merci d'exister
The Cure is like no other band. They're many great bands and musicians but this band and man are special. Some of their songs bring out so much emotion. It takes you on a trip and you remember times in your life. Their will only be 1 Robert Smith❤🙏👍👌👌👌
Look how bad he looks. Lifes been hard on him. Hes been through so much pain and suffering. This was a sweet sort of homage to his own work. Really Sweet Crowd.
This is my favorite Cure song. I’m in my early 40s and I’ve been listening to them since I was in elementary school. I have a 13 year old and when I clicked on this video she immediately said, “Is this the Cure? Is this Plainsong?” She also said she would love to go see them live. I pray she passes this on to her kids. I think his tears are bittersweet. I love it. Memento Mori (Remember you will die). 🖤💀
I’m turning 49 in a few weeks, just learned to play guitar started in Jan 21. I balled my eyes out trying to write my first song. I would love to see his process. How does he make through these deep tunes? Music is one of the only things that makes me cry these days. So glad I picked up that guitar. Allows me to zone out. Love the Cure a lot.
If you've lost someone who this absolutely achingly beautiful song is about for you... you will cry too 💔🥺 But especially seeing him doing it. I've never seen him like this despite decades of following them. Thank you.
you’re right, i saw them in Portland and also felt like it was a really intense show. Same for all the other clips of this tour i’ve seen. I saw them 3 other times years ago and it was not like this tour.
I lost someone a few years ago and ever since I will cry so easily, but I never did before. It changes something in you when you realize how quickly someone can just disappear and how precious time is. I can barely listen to this song anymore without crying, its just such a beautiful song. Imo along with pictures of you, I'd say they're the most moving songs I have ever heard.
Love you Robert you gave me such a beautiful song pictures of you thank you my favorite song in the whole world and always will be thank you for touching my heart and my soul
I hope his tears are from being thankful and gratitude towards us because it hurts me seeing him crying I love and respect this wonderful human being, and pray his in good health and all the members that has been in the cure of course
Grief comes and goes in tides. Perhaps it was an emotional day overall, maybe the day/date has significance. I don't know when exactly he lost his brother and parents but that with the overwhelming nature of a tour, sometimes things hit like a freight train at unexpected times. He seems really open and receptive more than ever on this tour and cannot help but hope he's okay. If I'm not mistaken this is the first tour out of the pandemic too..emotions are at an all time high and even he can't escape the catharsis of his own music. We can only send him love--hate to see him hurting--choked me up too. Thanks for sharing.
Such a good heart , so much feeling Robert Smith, just feel the lyrics and your music. I am 60 years old and followed The Cure for so many years. Still in my heart forever
That’s what makes him a musical Genius, his raw emotions and the sensitivity he’s always had.his lyrics are poetry put to music.so deep and meaningful.the sounds he makes coming out of his guitar are unreal so unique and amazing. The whole band is amazing il love them forever!🎸🥁🎶🎤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤✌️
Thank you Robert Smith for a lifetime of memories and nostalgia. My life has at times had a soundtrack for feelings that words could never express. Respect
How fortunate are we all to live during the same time period as Robert❤
The cure is magic
The world is lucky to have a group of lads like this - this music will never ever get old - never - superstars
35 years later and this is still the best opening track of any album. In my humble opinion anyway.
Whhaaaaat?
Agree. This song is super incredibly underrated. Such an angelic song.
I think 100% the same
Whole album is genius but Plainsong is a brilliant start to Disintegration and also any concert.
Y in Vivo 💜
Awww Robert 😢i cried seeing you cry 😢 you look so sad 😞
I've loved The Cure for ever and ever ❤️ and all these years later still sound brilliant 👏
LOVE YOU FOREVER ROBERT ❤❤❤❤❤
Love his music. Listening for 35 years now...
Robert is a spectacular human being.
this is how you know a song is special, when the it can make the creator cry
this is so moving ❤️😭❤️and he’s wearing a magical mystery tour tshirt, how much do i love him ❤️❤️
Well said, you - The Beatles and The Cure! A match made in Heaven...
I’m 76 and have followed the Cure from the start. Band members may change but the incredible Robert Smith IS the Cure. I love him ❤️❤️
I love him too I'm soon 66 and always loved Robert Smith The Cure....legend. ❤❤
I’m bowing to your longevity and awesomeness 🙏
Oh yes, he is. I've always loved this band, I'm 65.
The cure IS Robert Smith
Yes! I'm 59! Love Robert Smith! ❤ I've been a fan of The Cure since "Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me" I bought the cd in the summer of '87 because it was on sale. I'd never heard of them. I'm so glad that I took a chance and bought that cd.
An artist who has always been driven by emotions in his music. Music so powerful it still affects the creator

Como ser tan humilde y tan grande a la vez, aparte de su genialidad como artista a mí me emociona el ser humano que es Robert Smith

Maybe it's their last tour and the reality is setting in
What an over exaggeration 😂
@@Iwilldestroyyoo I take it you’re not a fan. You don’t seem to appreciate what this band means to people and how deeply we resonate with the songs.

We are all aging. I have been a fan since I was a teenager, when they were first out. So great to see them again💜💜💜

One of their best songs….
“"I think it's dark and it looks like rain, " you said
"And the wind is blowing
Like it's the end of the world, " you said
"And it's so cold, it's like the cold if you were dead"
Then you smiled for a second
"I think I'm old and I'm feeling pain, " you said
"And it's all running out
Like it's the end of the world, " you said
"And it's so cold, it's like the cold if you were dead"
Then you smiled for a second
Sometimes you make me feel
Like I'm living at the edge of the world
Like I'm living at the edge of the world
"It's just the way I smile, " you said”

I didn't use "a line" on her, we just started talking music - they were playing metal and we wanted Bauhaus or The Cure or anything else - and it was as natural as our whole relationship has been ever since. That was January 1992 and we're still together. ❤️
Been to Summerfest. Saw RHCP in 2016, I think or 2017. After The Getaway was released. Lovely time in Milwaukee.. passed down rain most of the concert. Froze my tits off. Soaked to the skin and walked back to hotel after show. Sneakers were waterlogged the next day.Squeaked all the way back to Floriduh! First stop on my Last Gasp tour. Love music so fucking much it almost hurts.
Pissed down rain. Shivered as I danced through whole show!
I always loved this song. I get emotional every time i hear it. 💔💜🖤💚 Disintegration is my favorite Cure album. I love all of them..but that one is the one that sold me forever on "The Cure." I felt everything. You are legends! ❤
Such a beautiful, beatiful man.
Love you Robert!❤
I´ve seen a couple of videos with tears on his face the last year. And what I find so beautiful is that he doesn´t hide his emotions. He also never makes it into a big deal. They are just there and it seems like he is ok with that. I mean of course it is hard to be sad (or whatever emotion the tears comes from) but still he seems to accept them. That is not easy. At all. Espacially not in front of so many people. But he makes it feel alright to be sad. And to cry. And to show emotions. It´s just human. And I love him for it.
nature give us emotions, at 69 i`ll tell ya they mean more and differently as we age because we understand them and dont have to play tuff. its part of nature and being human.
EXACTLY, being yourself and showing your emotions in front of so many ppl so openly just shows how well he is connected to the mass consciousness which surrounds us all...the more ppl tap into that the better humans we all become as a result.❤
Beautiful guy and that voice so soothing and calm
Songs that have the ability to overwhelm even their creator; a testament to his amazing abilities.
because when he wrote this he was sincere and put his heart in it like artists do, so now he recognizes those emotions whenever he sings them even after 30 years
If I could ever meet you I give you the biggest hug your music will always touch my soul love you love you love you
Plainsong enters your body and you’re never the same again. I cried too when I heard it live in Salt Lake in June. It is one of my top 20 favorite songs ever. The intro, the words, the lack of a chorus; it’s a perfect Cure song. It’s a perfect song.
Yessss I saw them in Philadelphia I just closed my eyes and let the music engulf me with tears in my eyes…amazing ❤
@@louiZiana-Gurl Couldn't Agree anymore ! Hands Down to One of The all Time most Beautiful Songs !!!! So Thankful they did This in Philly
Definitely hard to say exactly where, but whatever number it is, it's super comfortable in my top best fav..10 ever songs,big i had to decide on 10.
We gotta cherish Robert Smith forever he's just a gift that still keeps on giving after all these years!
This song has been evoking chills or tears from me for over 30 years, it never just plays in the background without affecting me in some way. I can imagine the man who wrote it has a real world connection to the lyrics, rather than it being metaphorical. The Cure always touch me, without fail.
I grew up loving this band. You have to hand it to Robert for sticking to his look. He will be buried with his red lipstick and eyeshadow. What a guy. South Park was right, Disintegration is the best Album ever.
A masterpiece of a song. The Cure is timeless.
😮
Seen them in 1990 best concert I’ve ever seen.
I was never particularly a Cure fan ,but that is beautiful to see a real worn person crying ugly tears in front of everyone. He is blessed to have that space where he is loved by a whole tribe
He really does have the love of his fans. I'm not a huge Cure fan, just a tertiary fan, but they have a very dedicated fan base, for sure.
The Cure isn't for everyone, but Robert Smith can write some of the most beautifully sweet, deeply powerful and soul-wrenching lyrics. His fans absolutely adore him (myself included).
I never took any notice of the Cure. I haven't ever even tried to explore their music, heard some on tv or radio but I wasn't moved to explore it further. I still don't get it but obviously he's liked and admired and has held his audience for many years so I respect him for that.
E pensar que bandas como essa um dia não existirão mais . Sua obra jamais esquecida .
There are no words to describe Robert Smith...the melodious, mysterious man who sings like an angel..
He brings joy, empathy, and genuineness to a lost 🌎 world .
Saw him in Cleveland @ 🌸 Blossom..Bucket list dream..
Once in a lifetime..just like heaven❤
I was at Blossom as well. What a joy it was to be there. Totally agree with what you say about him!!
A World without The Cure would be Less of a World
Some bands just come and Go and are forgotten in time
But the Cure will Live on Forever .
I just sobbed watching this. I was at this show as well. This was the opening song when I saw them on the prayer tour in Atlanta when I was 14 (I'm 47 now). And it was their opening song when I saw them in Atlanta in 2016. They are forever my heart and spirit. The greatest band to ever grace the planet.
I was at the 2016 show too and have the whole concert on my RUclips channel. Quality wasn’t great though but the sound is great.
I'm guessing you never saw Monster Magnet then
I was at the prayer concert in Atlanta when I was 14. I stood outside Turtle records waiting for them to open so I could get good seats. We had 3 row center. I didn’t tell my parents I was going into the city, I went with a kid from school that had a car. I payed for everything, he drove. I spent a total of $150. We got shirts, food and gas both ways. I’m 47 now, 2 adult children. They love all the music I grew up on, and some newer stuff. But will never be able to enjoy a show like this at todays cost. So sad how the young people are priced out of experiencing life like we did.
Among his many wonderful traits is Robert's concern for the fans. Alone among his contemporaries Robert stood up to the Ticketmaster monster and insisted prices stayed 0:08 affordable. Sorry you weren't able to enjoy this tour with your kids but maybe next time ...
I’d give anything to know what he’s thinking at moments like this. ❤ Thank you Robert for your gift.
He lost his brother recently and has had a few emotional moments on stage since. Not sure if the words in the song remind him of his brother or he is just still grieving….who knows.
I feel like he's not really thinking, he's just feeling in these moments.❤
He's grieving the past
The youth. The hay day. Time. Time is running out and he knows it.
His sweet smile is everything!
His face seems to show the beautiful heart within him. To see him wipe away his tears, broke me.
Honestly, The Cure’s music has evoked many tears, many emotions. I’m so grateful for Robert Smith, The Cure, for giving us all the amazingly beautiful music that they have. 🙏🏽❤️🩹
@@mistiquefire3462 That is what I also thought...But I think that he is happy for what he did in his life.
The Cures music is timeless
It's just the way i love you....🌠
They are a band that transcends time and space. Absolutely brilliant.
Pure heart, pure love. Robert Smith is one of the greatest artists of our time.
Du coup je pleure aussi...quel homme sensible Robert Smith, très émouvant. J'❤
Et quel superbe morceau, tout le monde peut se reconnaître dans la musique de the cure...the best. I love you for ever
Merci d'exister
super excellent
This melody is so beautiful
I LOVE YOU ROBERT ❤ FOR EVER ❤
Just stunning. ❤ the cure. ❤❤❤❤❤
The Cure is like no other band. They're many great bands and musicians but this band and man are special. Some of their songs bring out so much emotion. It takes you on a trip and you remember times in your life. Their will only be 1 Robert Smith❤🙏👍👌👌👌
Look how bad he looks. Lifes been hard on him. Hes been through so much pain and suffering. This was a sweet sort of homage to his own work. Really Sweet Crowd.
How many times I cried with this song. I love him.
Men and artists are human beings and of course they cry sometimes.
I love sensitive men who aren't afraid to show emotions.
Love you Robert 🖤
Robert knows the truth about whats happening in this world. He's been telling us through his lyrics for years
Thank you, Robert. From the bottom of my heart
This is my favorite Cure song. I’m in my early 40s and I’ve been listening to them since I was in elementary school. I have a 13 year old and when I clicked on this video she immediately said, “Is this the Cure? Is this Plainsong?” She also said she would love to go see them live. I pray she passes this on to her kids.
I think his tears are bittersweet. I love it. Memento Mori (Remember you will die). 🖤💀
I understand. Imyour generation. But thank you Robert and band. It is everything to us.
Sometimes when I watch him perform I feel like he feels that no one understands him. Does that make sense?
Robert, man, your soul is shining.
This song and Pictures of You are so emotional and draw tears from me every single time.
I’m turning 49 in a few weeks, just learned to play guitar started in Jan 21. I balled my eyes out trying to write my first song. I would love to see his process. How does he make through these deep tunes? Music is one of the only things that makes me cry these days. So glad I picked up that guitar. Allows me to zone out. Love the Cure a lot.
If you've lost someone who this absolutely achingly beautiful song is about for you... you will cry too 💔🥺 But especially seeing him doing it. I've never seen him like this despite decades of following them. Thank you.
you’re right, i saw them in Portland and also felt like it was a really intense show. Same for all the other clips of this tour i’ve seen. I saw them 3 other times years ago and it was not like this tour.
I lost someone a few years ago and ever since I will cry so easily, but I never did before. It changes something in you when you realize how quickly someone can just disappear and how precious time is. I can barely listen to this song anymore without crying, its just such a beautiful song. Imo along with pictures of you, I'd say they're the most moving songs I have ever heard.
I adore this beautiful soul.
Very sensual sound. One of the the most Romantic bands of an era.
Beautiful
I love how he wears the shirt over a shirt just like my Mom
Miss you Mommy❤️
Love you Robert you gave me such a beautiful song pictures of you thank you my favorite song in the whole world and always will be thank you for touching my heart and my soul
I hope his tears are from being thankful and gratitude towards us because it hurts me seeing him crying I love and respect this wonderful human being, and pray his in good health and all the members that has been in the cure of course
Magical. Always so gifted.
I saw them in Philadelphia. God bless Robert Smith 🥹
Right on, we drove 10 hrs from NC to see them in Philly, what an amazing & magical might !!!
Beautiful performance.Very touching.

A perfect human
Yep.
I bawl about a pet I had when I was 8yo. ....
51 yrs ago.
When its real, it never leaves you
Grief comes and goes in tides. Perhaps it was an emotional day overall, maybe the day/date has significance. I don't know when exactly he lost his brother and parents but that with the overwhelming nature of a tour, sometimes things hit like a freight train at unexpected times. He seems really open and receptive more than ever on this tour and cannot help but hope he's okay. If I'm not mistaken this is the first tour out of the pandemic too..emotions are at an all time high and even he can't escape the catharsis of his own music. We can only send him love--hate to see him hurting--choked me up too. Thanks for sharing.
Beautifully said. Crying as I read this ❤
❤️
the cure changed my life.....thankyou.
Such a good heart , so much feeling Robert Smith, just feel the lyrics and your music. I am 60 years old and followed The Cure for so many years. Still in my heart forever
You can feel Robert Smith’s passion and overwhelmed emotions just by looking at this clip alone. I’m so happy The Cure are still around.
There was something so hauntingly beautiful the way the light caught his eyes. Thank you for capturing that for us.
That’s what makes him a musical Genius, his raw emotions and the sensitivity he’s always had.his lyrics are poetry put to music.so deep and meaningful.the sounds he makes coming out of his guitar are unreal so unique and amazing. The whole band is amazing il love them forever!🎸🥁🎶🎤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤✌️
Thank you Robert Smith for a lifetime of memories and nostalgia. My life has at times had a soundtrack for feelings that words could never express. Respect
God bless you Robert. You've always been an inspiration to me, AND STILL ARE.
I was there crying too. My 5th show, since 1992.
