My beautiful mum was suffering from heavy depressions back in the eighties and took her own life in 1989 at the age of 26, when I was only one year old. Today I was going through her old record collection and found a little paper inside The Cure’s Disintegration album sleeve. It was an old handwritten note by her with some drawings. Beautiful painted red and purple flowers, many little hearts with my name in them and the words: ‘there was nothing in the world that I ever wanted more than to feel you deep in my heart’. I immediately searched on Google and that brought me to this song. I listened to it all morning. I got so close to my mother today because of this song. These words describe how she felt, how ill she was. How she struggled with being alive. But this also finally tells me how much I was wanted and how much she wanted to stay with me and see me growing up. I am sure she listened to this song a thousand times. She is my hero and she is free now. This afternoon I visited her grave and brought her red and purple flowers. I also gave her back her Disintegration album wrapped up in plastic, close to her where it belongs. The note is in my closet forever. 7:27
Bracha, I feel for you, a sad but wonderful story at the same time. Your mother is now at peace and I hope you find peace too? Hope you don’t mind me saying but love to you both.
@@HollyCranfanhow quickly people forget that Robert Smith of the Cure defeated mecha-Streisand and returned the diamond of pantheos to the boys to be divided and cast away for good. Short memories people have.
Lyrics: I've been looking so long at these pictures of you That I almost believe that they're real I've been living so long with my pictures of you That I almost believe that the pictures are all I can feel Remembering 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 Remembering you running soft through the night You were bigger and brighter and wider than snow You screamed at the make-believe, screamed at the sky And you finally found all your courage to let it all go Remembering you, fallen into my arms Crying for the death of your heart You were stone white, so delicate Lost in the cold You were always so lost in the dark Remembering you how you used to be Slow drowned, you were angels So much more than everything Hold for the last time then slip away quietly Open my eyes, but I never see anything If only I'd thought of the right words I could have held on to your heart If only I'd thought of the right words I wouldn't be breaking apart all my pictures of you Looking so long at these pictures of you But I never hold on to your heart Looking so long for the words to be true But always just breaking apart My pictures of you There was nothing in the world that I ever wanted more Than to feel you deep in my heart There was nothing in the world that I ever wanted more Than to never feel the breaking apart My pictures of you

I dedicated this to my son Matt. He loved this Band. I lost him to Cancer over 3 years ago. It still makes me cry. I miss you so much Matty my little man. 😔💔🙏😇
My baby girl Rosalee, Loved the snow. Pure love. She passed at 14.5 years old. She was so sweet, loyal and goofy. She is now in Heaven. Miss her every day. Look at her pictures, so I always remember her. Always 💔
Poxa sinto muito, espero sinceramente que ela esteja celebrando no céu com tudo de mais maravilhoso e inimaginável que lá foi preparado pra ela. Que O Espírito Santo que vive em ti te console, te liberte e te cure as feridas e lhe encha de consciência de que um dia vocês vão se reencontrar pra permanecerem eternamente juntas, se você conseguir e desejar ajude as pessoas ao seu redor doe todo o amor que você possui e lembre se você não está só e se estiver assim, corra sabe, calce um tênis e saia correndo deixe as dores saía correndo/trotando de leve respirando fundo e veja qual bem você pode fazer, e simplesmente se entregue á ser o seu melhor.. onde Rosalee estiver ela sempre está em seu coração e em lhe enviará amor incondicional e sabedoria pra cumprir seu propósito, crescer, se desenvolver e gerar frutos. Lembre se: tu tem ainda sua missão á cumprir. Que você seja curada e que esse pedaço arrancado se transforme em força, discernimento e paz. Que todos os espaços vazios de sua vida sejam preenchidos pela graça, pelo amor e pela luz de Deus, procure viver a sua vida e permitir a continuidade de Rosalee em outra dimensão com Deus, com arco íris, com docinhos e todas as coisas felizes e divertidas que ela ama.
Viaje, passeie, faça cortes de cabelo, academia e tire novas fotos pra que sua fluidez alegre a alma de sua filha. Permaneça firme no propósito de cumprir a sua missão. Encha seu coração e mente de boas imagens, de boas lembranças e de sensações positivas, pra sua vibração ser de amor e luz...
I used to get made fun of by friends for listen to the cure in the 90s. One of those friends came to me in the early 2010s to tell me how much he loves the cure after rediscovering them Timeless music!
The Cure was always the only thing that would take me out of very sad states on my teenage years. I’m 51 and tomorrow I’m going to see them alive for the first time! I’m sooooooo exited ❤
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! Enjoy the show; I've never had the chance to see them, but would love to see them. I'll be there is spirit! Enjoy your birthday, Andrea!
I recently saw a poll on Facebook that ranked all the greatest songs of all time voted by the fans and this song ended up winning the whole thing. I cant even say Im upset about that. What a masterpiece this song is.
In loving memory of my beautiful sister. She died two years ago, at the age of 48. This song always reminds me of the good times we had together. The pictures of her are always in my heart. I will never forget you, my lovely little sister.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I have 3 older siblings I love very much, although my closest sibling, my big brother has shunned me for the last 7 years because of politics and religion. I miss him terribly, but there's nothing more I can do but hope he breaks out of the cult he joined in 2015. Since I'm the youngest in the family, I know I will face this grief unless I go first. I don't know how I will cope. I hope you find peace, and know your sister loved you too!
I will be 50 this July 2023. Wish I had taken more pictures, had ‘em printed and stashed them up in my photo album. No digital image in my phone or social media gives me half the fun than browsing thru my photo album. I feel very special and lucky to have been born in 70’s to hear , listen and enjoy great bands like The Cure. Thank you guys. Love you.
I just turned 50 in July of this year as well. There will never be another decade of music like we grew up with ever again. How grateful I am to have lived during this period.
This is something I did for 20 + years as my boys were growing up. My wife would say, why all the pictures? Cuz on day they we will lock back in fond memories of those times, and they will be priceless. She gets it now, 35 years later.
This song: the way this it starts, with 2 and a half minutes of that ethereal guitar riff before the lyrics begin all the way to the tragic twist ending is just pure perfection.

June 2024!!!! Love this classic! I hope everyone is having a blessed year so far. Good vibes for you all!! May all of your dreams come true. My blessings to each and every one of you
Had my best friend pass on February 26. We were supposed to go to the Cure show In Helsinki but he changed jobs and sold the tickets. Been friends for over 40 years. I’m cleaning out his storage unit to take his things to his family. Tons of pictures from his life he took lots of pictures. Seeing his life in pictures has me so blown up. Thank you the Cure for this song.
So sorry for your loss. What an amazing friend you continue to be cleaning out, sifting through, and remembering the memories. ‘Home for the last time. ‘ Peace and love
Sorry for your loss. Touching to know that others care so much. 😊 Keep being a great friend and your friendship will always be in your heart. ❤. Great song. Great memories.
Getting old and realizing lifes just about over and theres so much i wish i could of changed but between stress and taking meds its just been so much b s, wish there was more good then bad.

To my loving dog, Bodhi, who was taken from us far too young. The sweetest dog any man could ever ask for. Not just a golden retriever, but a golden boy. Both mummy and daddy miss you. All dogs go to heaven little buddy, wait for me, and some day we'll take that final walk together.
I just lost my best friend. My orange ginger. He was taken far too soon. Only had 4 1/2 years with him. But they were the greatest. I miss my boy so much. So very much. 💔🐈
Yes nothing like a love of a K9,I lost my wonderful love Diamond 💎🐾 on 11-14-22,she was 12 yr black lab, the best times of my life was being with her, even though we suffered the loss of my parents along the way.i couldn't have asked for a better being then her.
I'm sorry for your loss and this reminds me of my cousins dog (also a golden retriever) who is super old and I may never get to see again. Piper, we will never forget you

My only child died of complications from a brain tumor when she was only 5 years old. My world shattered then and has never been the same since. I have so many pictures of her that I constantly look through. I can't stop, nor do I ever want to. This song captures much of these feelings.
fucking hell so sorry. I used to work in a hospice which is very different but thoughts of everyone I worked with still affect me, I'm sure everyone around you was with you to different degrees in your pain and genuinely cared.
Check out... Vampire Weekend, Fleet Foxes, Beach House, Sufjan Stevens, Bon Iver, Phoebe Bridgers and Boygenius, Radiohead and the Smile, Been Stellar, the Strokes, LCD Soundsystem, the National, the Shins, Billie Eilish, alt-J, Tame Impala, Iron & Wine, Lana Del Rey, Kendrick Lamar, Father John Misty, Wilco, Animal Collective, or basically any indie artist just under the mainstream. Then say that again straight-faced
That bass line, then the guitar over the top with the crisp drumming, topped off with Robs vocals. One of the best bands to come out of Britain, what a class act they really are. Total respect to a band that have stood the test of time. I salute you. 🙏🙏🙏👏👏👏

Thank you Robert and the entire Cure family. Seeing the uncut versions of these videos in the US again is like Christmas. You are a major part of my life and I have followed your career my entire lifetime. I am happy you are back. You are a major comfort to me in such unstable times. Welcome back. We all missed you!
I cannot describe the emotions that I feel every time I play this song. A timeless classic. I hope the new generation appreciates this song and the band.
my son (he's now 22 yo) asked me 'ma do you know this song?' And he played this song over his accoustic guitar. I suddenly remember those fucked and beautiful old days . And i just smile to him and said of course and show him some of my cassettes collection. Thank you The Cure.
I’ve cried through the entire song last Saturday seeing Robert singing this beautiful song so close to me. There was nothing in the world that I ever wanted more❤️
I can't listen this without shedding a couple tears. It makes me think of all the people I've lost who are still so important and special to me. This song for me is a warm hug from those I can't hold anymore. A very poignant and emotional song indeed.
48 now and yes the 80s music blows away all of the music of this current generation. I smile when I read comments from people in their 20s who say they were born in the wrong era of music. Makes me happy to be a child of the 80s and a teen in the 90s. Long live this music that never gets old no matter what...cheers and peace to all
I completely agree I think back to a girl I loved in the early 90’s ( I’m 😊53 and happy with kids stable) but I loved her so much and still do and feel guilty for it, The Cure are great, I do still have pictures sometimes you don’t know what you had till it’s gone. We both agreed the world ripped us apart and hoped one day to be together again that was 1995 it hasn’t happened and it never will.
My husband and I finally got to see The Cure last night in Chicago! Your songs were the soundtrack of our youth! My husband and I bonded over listening to Pictures of You, Love Song, Just Like Heaven, and all of your timeless classics. Robert's voice is so beautiful ...even more beautiful listening to it live! Thank you so much for your work! Love you guys!!!

My beautiful boy Liam Rebel was killed 6/19/22 he was only 10. I miss his sweet face and loud giggles. I can't wait to be with him again... Soon my son, I love you so much
My older brother died at the age of 21 when I was a freshman in college. This song is the closest expression I have heard to the feelings I’ve felt after his death. I’ve been living for years with only pictures of him, and at this point they almost feel real. Nothing will ever compare to my life when he was alive though. No one else lived as bravely and fiercely as my brother Jackson. No one understood him when he was alive, and now many years later, I am beginning to understand the boy I grew up with. I see glimpses of him in everyone, including myself. A world full of people who want to break free but don’t have the courage to do so. He was courageously and unapologetically himself. I will love and miss him for the rest of my life.
I have lost many loved ones too. They are partying in the sky dancing with angels. I hope we can all be reunited with our loved ones when our time comes.

Had to listen to this song, Someone I have loved for over 50 years was just dx: with stage 4 Pancreatic Cancer and was given a few weeks to maybe 3 months left, I can't stop crying he is my best friend, my first love, father of our 2 boys, and now I have to say goodbye & don't know how. Looking at pictures of him, of us, of our children and I just can't find the right words to say. Bye, :(
God bless you and your family. Our time is precious here in this life together, and experiences we share with our loved ones. We can be and are so fortunate to have had these moments. This is what counts the most. Thank you so much for sharing, I sympathize for your grievances. Miles Dei.
This is my song for my baby that I carried for more than 12 weeks and then carried on carrying until I wait for my baby to pass weeks later. It was such a horrible feeling to carry a baby that isn't growing anymore. I was so lost and stricken with such pain and grief that maybe only a parent could understand. Pictures of my baby that was in my memory, the dream, the things we would do together, the love I already developed for him, the pictures of him embeded in my heart. I believed he is a boy and I called him Dominic Francis. 27.01.2020 ❤ I still long for you my love. x
Reaching over to hold my daughter's hand 28 years later, but knowing she never lived to see the world. I know how you feel. All those dreams we have for our children that can be destroyed in a moment.
music has a way of taking us somplace we havent been in a long time. Or connects us to someone we love dearly. That is really beautiful you found that note.
Took my daughter to see them last may in Austin and we were so excited. We never thought we would get to see them live. This has been my favorite song from them and when they started playing the first couple of chords not going to lie i started crying. One of the best concerts ive been too and glad i got to share that with my daughter.
@@mariagirard15 me as well. My favorite memories are of being with my dad seeing Linkin Park, Korn, Judas Priest and Black Sabbath with him. Ever since I had my kids I couldn't wait to do that with them too.
This song is such a freaking masterpiece. The 80s had some of the best music ever made. "I've been looking so long at these pictures of you that I almost believe that they're real"... The Cure (Pictures Of You)...
The Cure have truly touched the hearts of many. Through agony and pain we’ve all lived through tough times! I myself suffered through childhood cancer from which I’ve lived through a lifetime of suffering. The doses of chemo and radiation given to me as a child haunt me to this day. I’ve had issues with obesity, immune system, endocrinology, arthritis, and two brain tumors that I’ve had to live through. I nearly died after the first tumor. My wife left me after the doc said it’ll take me about a year to recover. I couldn’t work during the time. The Cure has gotten me through many days of Melancholie and depression. Love the Cure❤
I lost my mom in 2015. I feel your pain, it isn't easy. Somehow you just find the ability to keep going because that is what they would want you to do.
You’re right I lost my amazing dad in 2006 and my beautiful husband 4 months ago. The pain is almost unbearable and time does not make it any better. This song hits me because all I have now are pictures and memories and a broken heart. The Cure’s music is pure genius.
I hear you... I also lost my dad in 2020, after a really long battle with Alzheimer's, then Covid took him. 3:20 am now, crying, missing him, and so many others. So often pictures are all that's left. What I would give, for just one more day together. One more hour.
I feel you... I lost my mom to Covid in 2021. And this song means everything to me. I had the chance to be at the concert in Mexico City last Sunday and this song was like a healing pill.
Tomorrow Lost Today 8/14/17 @ 7:45AM Shattered porcelain every-where I turn. Glimpsing at tomorrows and tomorrows: Fragments from an exquisite vase. Searching gingerly through shards Salvaging for just one: One not too jagged, not too sharp; A vista through death, Without shredding my heart, Or puddling too much blood. But each pane picked pierces, Dripping crimson shaped tears. Like rain down an autumn pane. Tomorrow lost today. And today lost tomorrow.
This song reminds me of my dad. He is The Cure's biggest fan. I remember going to Greece for vacation a few years ago. This song was playing while the sun was slowly going down. We traveled 15 hours and we listened to them most of the trip, I fell asleep around 12 AM but I could still hear my dad sing this song even tho he was super tired. I want to thank him for introducing me to this band.
My late husband died way to soon of kidney cancer after 6 months of diagnosis. Everything medically possible was tried because he desperately want to live and stay with us, his family. The heartbreak of knowing he was going while everyone he loved was staying broke him. He died under Hospice care in our home surrounded by his family. Life has never been the same since. This song is exactly how I feel. Remembering him and how he used to be in pictures is all I can do now. "How I always held him close in his fear, as he found the courage to let it all go." He was so much more than everything. There was nothing in the world that I ever wanted more is to never feel the breaking apart." I miss him so. What a beautiful sincere heart felt song that touches my very soul! Thank you, "The Cure." Rest in peace, my love. 💔
this is such a gift for anyone whose heart is being torn a new one by a breakup. crying at 10 pm, beer at hand, the song blasting through my earphones - it’s so sad but suddenly, there is a feeling that all is going to be okay.
This entire album is a treasure. One of my top 10s for sure. 'Wish' has some amazing music, too. More manic-depressive, but the depressive stuff is magical.
It would be immortal my friend because I know whatever generation they may be When every phase is passed they will eventually come back to this over and over again it will never get old
I was often alone in my youth, but always felt great comfort from Robert Smith and the Cure. Still listening today and bringing huge smiles when ever I listen! Massive love and respect!
I've been looking so long at these pictures of you That I almost believe that they're real I've been living so long with my pictures of you That I almost believe that the pictures are all I can feel Remembering 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 Remembering you running soft through the night You were bigger and brighter and wider than snow You screamed at the make-believe, screamed at the sky And you finally found all your courage to let it all go Remembering you, fallen into my arms Crying for the death of your heart You were stone white, so delicate Lost in the cold You were always so lost in the dark Remembering you how you used to be Slow drowned, you were angels So much more than everything Hold for the last time then slip away quietly Open my eyes, but I never see anything If only I'd thought of the right words I could have held on to your heart If only I'd thought of the right words I wouldn't be breaking apart all my pictures of you Looking so long at these pictures of you But I never hold on to your heart Looking so long for the words to be true But always just breaking apart My pictures of you There was nothing in the world that I ever wanted more Than to feel you deep in my heart There was nothing in the world that I ever wanted more Than to never feel the breaking apart My pictures of you
I'm 58 and I've been a Cure fan since 1982. Their music has helped me through some of the toughest times in my life. This is my favorite song of theirs. It hits me in the gut so hard. I've lost everyone in my life. I have no family, no friends, just my memories and my pictures of you.
The good thing about this song is that it describes perfectly a break up living, longing for someone, missing someone, losing someone whatever the meaning you hear it here.
Of all the great Cure songs, this one is hands down, my favorite. For some reason, I think I'll be listening to it when my beloved wife passes someday. I love the long intro and the lyrics...standing quiet in the rain. My God, so tender.
I just saw them live and god its like they recorded it yesterday. Robert Smith has such an amazing stage presence and love towards the people in the crowd- They truly delivered and over 30 songs 😍 I sobbed needless to say when the first chord of this played
Just saw them in Albuquerque after not seeing them since 1985. Bawled my head off with my mom who is 74, and it was on her bucket list to see The Cure.
I think of my late mother every single day. She is always in my thoughts and in my heart. I can't help but cry whenever I hear this song. Thank you The Cure for this song! 🤍
I lost my husband of 26 years to Covid on Jan. 3, 2021. Jan 27, 2022 I lost my only child in an accident. This song both breaks me and helps hold me together, if you can understand that. It is an absolute work of perfection and Robert Smith and the rest of The Cure may never fully understand how much their music means to some of us, and how much it has helped in our lives.
I lost my husband after he graduated from a 1 year rehab program, landed a great job and a new car and promptly killed himself by snorting a large dose of Fentanyl. Two doses of Narcan couldn't save him. I got through the next year by functioning like normal during each day and then locking myself in my bathroom after work every night to lie on the floor and cry scream into a pillow for hours. My mother had Covid January 23 2021 and after two weeks of ICU was moved to a regular room and died suddenly in the early morning hours when her heart just stopped. I totally get what you mean and I hurt with you. From one kintsugi heart to another.
Sorry for your loss. 🙏🏽 days will get better. Those pictures will help brighten your day when you feel down and alone. Their laughter and smell will stay with you I pray. ❤
My husband and I saw The Cure a few years back with my best friends in the world and when they played this all 8 of us started crying at the same time. Best time ever.
When I was younger and was filled with depression and self hatred I would listen to this and self harm. After many many years of slow healing, I listen to it and feel compassion for myself, and this song is beautiful, because your love is wonderful even if it isn't reciprocated. It's a wonderful thing to love a human with all their flaws, even if they don't love you back.
It is a wonderful gift to love without reciprocation. very healing mentally and physically. check out Joe Dispenza's work about changing your mental paradigm. It's actually pretty simple and has saved lives. He does not claim to be the inventor or whatever. Human were created to create and PROSPER, not suffer. I just did the work recently and has already felt the impact. Become aware of your thoughts and improve them. Over and over.....do the work. We all have so much potential but shrink our mindscape way too small. Think bigger and happier!
Best intro ever. I was amazed when I heard it for the first time. The rest of the song is great too but the first part before the singing starts is indeed genius.
Miss you Rob, feels like a lifetime since I lost you, I was only 17 now 42 and miss you everyday brother, I remember how much you used to listen to all these songs. In my heart and mind always.
This was "our song" but me and her moved on. I guess I had to come here one last time to really close the last memory and last bridge I have left. It's a weight taken off.
I was reading through the comments tonight... and I'm moved to absolute heartbreak for those of you who have lost loved ones....parents, friends, even babies. I'm sending so much love and many prayers for healing and peace to all of you.
RIP my Love Samantha Kailiahe I would have loved to of put that ring on your hand and givein you the the love you deserved I have so many regrets,... I love you so so much always and forever I will see you soon and the kids are doing well and thay remind me of you and your family is so lost with out you Stella is spit in image of you my love tell we meet again 💗 you forever and to heaven and back again.... all ways yours Chad Hoffman 8:24

A masterpiece. I’ve only just gotten into The Cure and I am obsessed. Even though I didn’t listen to them as a teenager it makes me feel like I’m 16 again. (I’m 43)
Same age as you... I remember buying Close To Me when it came out... 1988? Something like that I can't remember. I was getting mum to buy me records at 3yrs old! Pass The Dutchie by Musical Youth being my first record! 😊
I find it fascinating how Robert Smith can write something so relatable for people, a very talented man. Me and her moved on a few years ago and now live at opposite ends of the country but the words to this song pretty much speak my mind and I’ll always look at them photos.
The Cure are the most important band that has ever existed. I an sobbing, reading the messages here, Robert Smith has spoken directly to more people than any other songwriter. Astonishing genius
This thread proves it. I am 49 now, so not the 13 year old kid that discovered the already huge band the cure any more, but they are important. Reading through this thread is incredible, I hope Robert knows how much his music has helped the waifs and the strays of life.
Back in 1989, i played guitar and sang this song on the stage of school theater in front of the entire school. My singing was sometimes off-key, but i didnt care. I sang this song for a girl that i loved very much then
I just lost my dad. I am now playing this song full blast in my bedroom, holding a picture of my dad close to my chest. Tears just flowed uncontrollably as I reminisce on all the happy and sad moments that I have shared with him. I missed him so much. Thank you, The Cure, for this song.
@@chrishall6056 my mum is suffering from alzheimers disease, losing at bit more of her every day...it's a slow and painful death. Was thinking of her and thought of this song.
My girlfriend , 35 years from the Fillipines passed away on 25 march 2021 in Cebu Hospital because of Covid. She loved this song.. I can't listen to it without tears falling..........
Here I am crying over the loss of a stranger while listening to a song that already picks my heartstrings. I'm sorry for your loss. I wish that one day you will come to have peace of mind again. Appreciate the memories you have, and know that one day you will find happiness even in her physical aspects and let her spirit live on. much love to you
If you listen to this song then she left you a gift, my friend. As hard as it is, know that she is still with you. Love never dies it only changes form. Much love to you ❤
My partner took her life at age 24 bit not before dancing with me to this and so many other Cure songs; but this one is so very personal since losing her. 23 yrs on and I still almost can't believe it was all real
My god, this is traumatically sad. I'm really sorry. I find it beautiful that you are keeping said persons memory alive and still have them in your thoughts. Good on you
Please RUclips search "Jim Tucker's Reincarnation Documentary." and ask friends who have kids if their little ones have birth marks or recurring nightmares. How did your partner take her or his own life? if it left wound marks, look for kids with birthmarks in the same part of the body on the kid that your partner wounded his/her self. One can't escape life's lessons so easily. One's individual Consciousness must learn from life. ☮️🎶🖖

Dedicated to my best friend who died in August. This was the last song he sang when we were at a karaoke bar. Also dedicated to my ex who I lost recently. I miss her everyday.
@nwinkler07 I know what you are going through, my best friend accidentally shot himself in the head and when I got the call I knew it was an accident I'm so glad it was an accident but I miss him every second I'm awake he passed on October 1st 2022
The Cure is literally the cure for depression their music is so nostalgic and memory inducing to times that were much simpler ❤ light and love to all listening to them searching for their cure 🎶🙏💕
My beautiful mum was suffering from heavy depressions back in the eighties and took her own life in 1989 at the age of 26, when I was only one year old. Today I was going through her old record collection and found a little paper inside The Cure’s Disintegration album sleeve. It was an old handwritten note by her with some drawings. Beautiful painted red and purple flowers, many little hearts with my name in them and the words: ‘there was nothing in the world that I ever wanted more than to feel you deep in my heart’. I immediately searched on Google and that brought me to this song. I listened to it all morning. I got so close to my mother today because of this song. These words describe how she felt, how ill she was. How she struggled with being alive. But this also finally tells me how much I was wanted and how much she wanted to stay with me and see me growing up. I am sure she listened to this song a thousand times. She is my hero and she is free now. This afternoon I visited her grave and brought her red and purple flowers. I also gave her back her Disintegration album wrapped up in plastic, close to her where it belongs. The note is in my closet forever. 7:27
sad and beautiful
Bracha, I feel for you, a sad but wonderful story at the same time. Your mother is now at peace and I hope you find peace too?
Hope you don’t mind me saying but love to you both.
🙏
I cant imagine how that made you feel finding that note. Thank you for sharing God bless you x
Amazing sad and beautiful story....
If Robert Smith is ever having a rough day, I hope he reads these comments and realizes how much he means to this world. Beautiful.
AGREE,FOREVER,GOD BLESS YOU ,THANKYOU WORDS
Some idiot wanted to make fun of Robert still wearing makeup this year on tv. . Said he was too old. They don’t know how well loved he is by his fans.
Well said🖤
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
@@HollyCranfanhow quickly people forget that Robert Smith of the Cure defeated mecha-Streisand and returned the diamond of pantheos to the boys to be divided and cast away for good. Short memories people have.
This is the song you will either cry, dance, drink or smile to depending on the stage of your life. A song that transcends all seasons of life.
You are 💯 percent right 👍 I never thought about it that way 😊
what a wonderful thing to say..... agreed...peace and love to you xxxxxxx
You Absolutely got that straight 🔥❤😊 My favorite song of theirs . It is timeless.
Sometimes, it's all four.
Парень ты или девушка не знаю ,но насрать песня классная, привет из России матушки ❤😂🎉
Still can't believe the length of this song and yet it passes so quickly.
Truly a masterpiece.
It’s like a metaphor for life, isn’t it?🥹
Time waits for no one. Live life
Still here.. crying eyeballs out now

Lyrics:
I've been looking so long at these pictures of you
That I almost believe that they're real
I've been living so long with my pictures of you
That I almost believe that the pictures are all I can feel
Remembering 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
Remembering you running soft through the night
You were bigger and brighter and wider than snow
You screamed at the make-believe, screamed at the sky
And you finally found all your courage to let it all go
Remembering you, fallen into my arms
Crying for the death of your heart
You were stone white, so delicate
Lost in the cold
You were always so lost in the dark
Remembering you how you used to be
Slow drowned, you were angels
So much more than everything
Hold for the last time then slip away quietly
Open my eyes, but I never see anything
If only I'd thought of the right words
I could have held on to your heart
If only I'd thought of the right words
I wouldn't be breaking apart all my pictures of you
Looking so long at these pictures of you
But I never hold on to your heart
Looking so long for the words to be true
But always just breaking apart
My pictures of you
There was nothing in the world that I ever wanted more
Than to feel you deep in my heart
There was nothing in the world that I ever wanted more
Than to never feel the breaking apart
My pictures of you
thanku. this is from when the lyrics actually mattered. nowadays its all about mumbling nonsense ...
Whiter, not wider.
I can't hear it or read the lyrics without crying. God, I miss you so much, baby..

I'm 63, loved The Cure, still do. The 1980s had some of the best music ever made.
59 and as a college DJ I wholeheartedly agree ❤
Oh yeah 🤘🏻🤩
Definitely
@Richard LaFleur hell of a life we lived
@Richard LaFleur yeah I know. Old DJ. I’m digging it
I dedicated this to my son Matt. He loved this Band. I lost him to Cancer over 3 years ago. It still makes me cry. I miss you so much Matty my little man. 😔💔🙏😇
😢
no words can describe the void left behind...this is a trace of his memory...keep it close
I'm so sorry for your loss. Sending you so much love ❤️
Know you are not alone even we will never meet I love you ❤️
@@davidmartin9879yes 💜
My baby girl Rosalee, Loved the snow. Pure love. She passed at 14.5 years old. She was so sweet, loyal and goofy. She is now in Heaven. Miss her every day. Look at her pictures, so I always remember her. Always 💔
So sorry for your loss. I hope this song helps you remember and treasure your little one.
i hate these bullshit stories
So sorry. Such a great loss ❤
Poxa sinto muito, espero sinceramente que ela esteja celebrando no céu com tudo de mais maravilhoso e inimaginável que lá foi preparado pra ela. Que O Espírito Santo que vive em ti te console, te liberte e te cure as feridas e lhe encha de consciência de que um dia vocês vão se reencontrar pra permanecerem eternamente juntas, se você conseguir e desejar ajude as pessoas ao seu redor doe todo o amor que você possui e lembre se você não está só e se estiver assim, corra sabe, calce um tênis e saia correndo deixe as dores saía correndo/trotando de leve respirando fundo e veja qual bem você pode fazer, e simplesmente se entregue á ser o seu melhor.. onde Rosalee estiver ela sempre está em seu coração e em lhe enviará amor incondicional e sabedoria pra cumprir seu propósito, crescer, se desenvolver e gerar frutos. Lembre se: tu tem ainda sua missão á cumprir. Que você seja curada e que esse pedaço arrancado se transforme em força, discernimento e paz. Que todos os espaços vazios de sua vida sejam preenchidos pela graça, pelo amor e pela luz de Deus, procure viver a sua vida e permitir a continuidade de Rosalee em outra dimensão com Deus, com arco íris, com docinhos e todas as coisas felizes e divertidas que ela ama.
Viaje, passeie, faça cortes de cabelo, academia e tire novas fotos pra que sua fluidez alegre a alma de sua filha. Permaneça firme no propósito de cumprir a sua missão. Encha seu coração e mente de boas imagens, de boas lembranças e de sensações positivas, pra sua vibração ser de amor e luz...
The Cure was ages ahead of their time!!!!! I cannot describe how amazing this song is!!!!!!!!! I am crying as I am writing.
agreed way before their time so so true timeless classics
I used to get made fun of by friends for listen to the cure in the 90s. One of those friends came to me in the early 2010s to tell me how much he loves the cure after rediscovering them
Timeless music!
This song comes from ages beyond us.
Actually perfectly on time ❤📻🎵
The Cure was always the only thing that would take me out of very sad states on my teenage years. I’m 51 and tomorrow I’m going to see them alive for the first time! I’m sooooooo exited ❤
You are so very lucky woman!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! Enjoy the show; I've never had the chance to see them, but would love to see them. I'll be there is spirit! Enjoy your birthday, Andrea!
I hope it was everything that you hoped for and more🎉 happy belated birthday 🎉
'A song to elevate you to happiness instantly within 1 minute!'
Good for you .....😊
I recently saw a poll on Facebook that ranked all the greatest songs of all time voted by the fans and this song ended up winning the whole thing. I cant even say Im upset about that. What a masterpiece this song is.
Oh I’d love to see that poll. I agree this would be #1
I VOTE .MY FEW SONG 4EVER❤🇭🇺
Probably the best intro of any song, ever.
Absolutely a true love story song 🩷
I’ve always thought exactly this 🙏🏼
The Cure were always the soundtrack for those that were longing for more out of this life without knowing exactly what that was.
You're are right
You are so right.... 💜
Doesn't that describe 99% of people?
They are the soundtrack for everyone
So true... my soul is restless for a place or person ive never came across
What a band,no one absolutely no one sounds like The Cure.
The cure inspired many bands like: Soda Stereo, Indochine, etc.
The sound itself is so incredibly clear and well done
They were my favorite band in 7 th grade! Just like heaven was my favorite song and still is!! Robert smith is the best!!!!!
Big cure fan
thank god
In loving memory of my beautiful sister. She died two years ago, at the age of 48. This song always reminds me of the good times we had together. The pictures of her are always in my heart. I will never forget you, my lovely little sister.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I have 3 older siblings I love very much, although my closest sibling, my big brother has shunned me for the last 7 years because of politics and religion. I miss him terribly, but there's nothing more I can do but hope he breaks out of the cult he joined in 2015.
Since I'm the youngest in the family, I know I will face this grief unless I go first. I don't know how I will cope.
I hope you find peace, and know your sister loved you too!
Love ❤️
X
Thinking of you🙌 So Sorry' for a tremendous loss
💫 Grief is such a continuum.... Thank you for sharing your love for her with us ❤️
I love this intro - it just says we'll take as long as we want.
Not everyone has to go all "o o o o o" 30 seconds into a song in slutty gear ;)
Haha awesome comment.
Hypnotic, Mesmerizing, Transcendental. One of the greatest love songs ever recorded.
So hypnotic
I will be 50 this July 2023. Wish I had taken more pictures, had ‘em printed and stashed them up in my photo album. No digital image in my phone or social media gives me half the fun than browsing thru my photo album.
I feel very special and lucky to have been born in 70’s to hear , listen and enjoy great bands like The Cure. Thank you guys. Love you.
I hear ya erdom. I wish I would have taken more pics of the special people in my life
happy late birthday man
I just turned 50 in July of this year as well. There will never be another decade of music like we grew up with ever again. How grateful I am to have lived during this period.
This is something I did for 20 + years as my boys were growing up. My wife would say, why all the pictures? Cuz on day they we will lock back in fond memories of those times, and they will be priceless. She gets it now, 35 years later.
Absolutely. I'm 47 and I absolutely agree!!
This song: the way this it starts, with 2 and a half minutes of that ethereal guitar riff before the lyrics begin all the way to the tragic twist ending is just pure perfection.
Hi I recommend a song called 'The Bond Villain' by Robert Nix

This is one of those hauntingly beautiful songs that never gets old
Had my best friend pass on February 26. We were supposed to go to the Cure show In Helsinki but he changed jobs and sold the tickets. Been friends for over 40 years. I’m cleaning out his storage unit to take his things to his family. Tons of pictures from his life he took lots of pictures. Seeing his life in pictures has me so blown up. Thank you the Cure for this song.
So sorry for your loss. What an amazing friend you continue to be cleaning out, sifting through, and remembering the memories. ‘Home for the last time. ‘
Peace and love
Sorry for your loss. Touching to know that others care so much. 😊 Keep being a great friend and your friendship will always be in your heart. ❤. Great song. Great memories.
THATS MY BIRTHDAY R.I.P TO YOUR FRIEND
Best story ever.
So sorry for your loss❤
I just wanted to send a hug to everyone who is suffering. Hang in there. We can do it.
Getting old and realizing lifes just about over and theres so much i wish i could of changed but between stress and taking meds its just been so much b s, wish there was more good then bad.

To my loving dog, Bodhi, who was taken from us far too young. The sweetest dog any man could ever ask for. Not just a golden retriever, but a golden boy. Both mummy and daddy miss you. All dogs go to heaven little buddy, wait for me, and some day we'll take that final walk together.
I just lost my best friend. My orange ginger. He was taken far too soon. Only had 4 1/2 years with him. But they were the greatest. I miss my boy so much. So very much. 💔🐈
Yes nothing like a love of a K9,I lost my wonderful love Diamond 💎🐾 on 11-14-22,she was 12 yr black lab, the best times of my life was being with her, even though we suffered the loss of my parents along the way.i couldn't have asked for a better being then her.
I lost a dog named bodhi best great dane ever...he will be missed ,dearly
I'm sorry for your loss and this reminds me of my cousins dog (also a golden retriever) who is super old and I may never get to see again. Piper, we will never forget you
Makes me cry everytime.. this song is a timeless masterpiece. Thank god The Cure exist.
Truly "The Cure."

My only child died of complications from a brain tumor when she was only 5 years old. My world shattered then and has never been the same since. I have so many pictures of her that I constantly look through. I can't stop, nor do I ever want to. This song captures much of these feelings.
fucking hell so sorry. I used to work in a hospice which is very different but thoughts of everyone I worked with still affect me, I'm sure everyone around you was with you to different degrees in your pain and genuinely cared.
Yes my girl died to and I have her pictures....this song makes me cry 😢...
🥺😢
So sorry for your loss.
I'm so sorry. What a terrible world we live in.
I’d give anything to have this kind of music back into our lives again. Nobody uses their imagination and true expressions anymore.
just push b-button.
Juice wrld and xxxtentacion did😞
you should expand your horizons. There's literally more good music, of every kind, than there's ever been.
*No. The problem is nobody is buying music and supporting musicians anymore.*
Check out...
Vampire Weekend, Fleet Foxes, Beach House, Sufjan Stevens, Bon Iver, Phoebe Bridgers and Boygenius, Radiohead and the Smile, Been Stellar, the Strokes, LCD Soundsystem, the National, the Shins, Billie Eilish, alt-J, Tame Impala, Iron & Wine, Lana Del Rey, Kendrick Lamar, Father John Misty, Wilco, Animal Collective, or basically any indie artist just under the mainstream. Then say that again straight-faced
One of the most beautiful lines ever:
There was nothing in the world that I ever wanted more than to feel you deep in my heart.
And one of the saddest: 'I've been living so long with these pictures of you/That I almost believe that the pictures are all I can feel'.
And you finaly found all your courage to let it all go~
What a gorgeous sight to see you eat in the middle of the night - Friday im in Love
💔🙏😭🍻
That bass line, then the guitar over the top with the crisp drumming, topped off with Robs vocals.
One of the best bands to come out of Britain, what a class act they really are.
Total respect to a band that have stood the test of time.
I salute you.
🙏🙏🙏👏👏👏
It’s actually two basses - Robert playing melody on a Bass Vi - that signature Cure sound. :)
Best concert I’ve seen in Hawaii
Well, the 80s were coming to an end, SOMEONE had to mark the end with something good enough to stand out.
And Robert and the band were and are so humble . I think that’s what makes them so great . Thanks guys !
One of the best mixed and mastered songs ever
Perfect song to describe a grieving soul like mine. Lost my husband of 37 yrs in 2015. Life goes on but so also does the pain. 😢
Hang in there, girl. Life is, but test.

Sorry to hear about your husband, If I could send a sliver of good fortune to you, I would.
@@crosscat1Thank you. You already have with this comment 💙😊
Thank you Robert and the entire Cure family. Seeing the uncut versions of these videos in the US again is like Christmas. You are a major part of my life and I have followed your career my entire lifetime. I am happy you are back. You are a major comfort to me in such unstable times. Welcome back. We all missed you!
I cannot describe the emotions that I feel every time I play this song. A timeless classic. I hope the new generation appreciates this song and the band.
Saw them, last night, for the 4th time. 29 songs... Unbelievable!!!
We do appreciate the song and the band ❤
The soundtrack of my late teen/young adult years...and I'm so grateful for this music❤
@@lynda74 You are very lucky.. I wish I could see them 😭😭
I love it too!!! So much emotion one only knows when they lose someone close!!!😢
Undoubtedly one of the most beautiful songs ever written/sang/performed!
agree.
Hi I recommend a song called 'The Bond Villain' By Robert Nix
Sung*
Every picture tells a story!!...🙌...🎼...
its good, not exactly the most beautiful song
it appeals to us manic depressed for a reason and its not beauty
my son (he's now 22 yo) asked me 'ma do you know this song?' And he played this song over his accoustic guitar. I suddenly remember those fucked and beautiful old days . And i just smile to him and said of course and show him some of my cassettes collection. Thank you The Cure.
You've raised a good man. Hopefully he will teach his son one day how to play this song.
@@taqiyyaconcarne6908 Thank you..yes, i hope he will 🙂
“Showed him my cassette collection!!”
Priceless.
Wish I could have seen his face. 😮
@@kieranoconnor6925 priceless! 🥰
Such a beautiful story!!😊
I’ve cried through the entire song last Saturday seeing Robert singing this beautiful song so close to me. There was nothing in the world that I ever wanted more❤️
Hi I recommend a song called 'The Bond Villain' By Robert Nix
I am crying through it too!!!!
Thank you! I will check it out 🙂
I can't listen this without shedding a couple tears. It makes me think of all the people I've lost who are still so important and special to me. This song for me is a warm hug from those I can't hold anymore. A very poignant and emotional song indeed.
The Cure at their best
That was so sad yet the most beautiful thing I’ve read in a long time. I’m sorry for all your losses
Me too friend.
48 now and yes the 80s music blows away all of the music of this current generation. I smile when I read comments from people in their 20s who say they were born in the wrong era of music. Makes me happy to be a child of the 80s and a teen in the 90s. Long live this music that never gets old no matter what...cheers and peace to all
I completely agree I think back to a girl I loved in the early 90’s ( I’m 😊53 and happy with kids stable) but I loved her so much and still do and feel guilty for it, The Cure are great, I do still have pictures sometimes you don’t know what you had till it’s gone. We both agreed the world ripped us apart and hoped one day to be together again that was 1995 it hasn’t happened and it never will.
In 2023 this is still one of the best songs ever written
yes i agree..........makes me cry........from italy..........it s fantastic song
Why not🤷🏻🤷🏻
Yup. I am 48 and this song brings back so many memories. Those were the good days when there was real talent.
Partly cuz nothing good has been written for 20 years 😁
🥰
Who else thinks that 1989 was the best year for The Cure! 🖤🙏🌹🖤
My husband and I finally got to see The Cure last night in Chicago! Your songs were the soundtrack of our youth! My husband and I bonded over listening to Pictures of You, Love Song, Just Like Heaven, and all of your timeless classics. Robert's voice is so beautiful ...even more beautiful listening to it live! Thank you so much for your work! Love you guys!!!
We were at the Chicago show too! It was so amazing.❤
I was there!!! When they played “burn” and “like cockatoos” I went insane.
I saw them in Portland a couple weeks ago.. breathtaking show ❤
You seen them as of late ?
Miami was insane🖤 wish they played cold
At 55 yrs old I still I’ll watch this ❤. Reminds me of old days.
Better days
Same here, at 56.

My beautiful boy Liam Rebel was killed 6/19/22 he was only 10. I miss his sweet face and loud giggles. I can't wait to be with him again... Soon my son, I love you so much

you didnt call him rebel, like wtf
@@gege4707show some respect
Live thru him
My older brother died at the age of 21 when I was a freshman in college. This song is the closest expression I have heard to the feelings I’ve felt after his death. I’ve been living for years with only pictures of him, and at this point they almost feel real. Nothing will ever compare to my life when he was alive though. No one else lived as bravely and fiercely as my brother Jackson. No one understood him when he was alive, and now many years later, I am beginning to understand the boy I grew up with. I see glimpses of him in everyone, including myself. A world full of people who want to break free but don’t have the courage to do so. He was courageously and unapologetically himself. I will love and miss him for the rest of my life.
Sending you love.
I'm with Jeremy
Sympathies,blessings n a prayer or two sent to you at this trying time..
Beautiful words xx
I have lost many loved ones too. They are partying in the sky dancing with angels. I hope we can all be reunited with our loved ones when our time comes.
This has got to be one of the most beautiful songs ever written.
My pops loved this song. He passed away yesterday. Love you dad.
I'm really sorry..I lost my parents ages but it feels like yesterday!! Just keep them alive n talk about him. He hears you!! He's close..

One of my best friends died 2 days again on April 28th, 2024. They loved the cure. And I relate to this song the most. Rest in peace to them.
Sorry for your loss🕊️
I am so sorry for your loss - that was my birthday - that was my birthday 😢 The strange cycles of life - be well and treasure the moments you shared.
Had to listen to this song, Someone I have loved for over 50 years was just dx: with stage 4 Pancreatic Cancer and was given a few weeks to maybe 3 months left, I can't stop crying he is my best friend, my first love, father of our 2 boys, and now I have to say goodbye & don't know how. Looking at pictures of him, of us, of our children and I just can't find the right words to say. Bye, :(
🌻
Belive that its already cured. Feel it. One of Neville Goddard s book could help! Much love! Stay positive!🙏🏻❤️
Im praying for you both & family. Please both accept Jesus and you'll be together forever.
God bless you and your family. Our time is precious here in this life together, and experiences we share with our loved ones. We can be and are so fortunate to have had these moments. This is what counts the most. Thank you so much for sharing, I sympathize for your grievances. Miles Dei.
@@vh2205 really? totally uncalled for
This is one of those rare songs that is so well written and so perfectly performed one can scarcely believe it is real❤️
This is my song for my baby that I carried for more than 12 weeks and then carried on carrying until I wait for my baby to pass weeks later. It was such a horrible feeling to carry a baby that isn't growing anymore. I was so lost and stricken with such pain and grief that maybe only a parent could understand. Pictures of my baby that was in my memory, the dream, the things we would do together, the love I already developed for him, the pictures of him embeded in my heart. I believed he is a boy and I called him Dominic Francis. 27.01.2020 ❤ I still long for you my love. x
He lives in your memory; he will always be there. Never let it go. From a parent.
@@nextsubjectplease8534 Thank you. ❤
Wtf are you talking about? This song reminds you of a miscarriage? You took pics if your miscarriage?
Reaching over to hold my daughter's hand 28 years later, but knowing she never lived to see the world. I know how you feel. All those dreams we have for our children that can be destroyed in a moment.
I pray that time may dry your tears and help you to find some peace from your grief....
music has a way of taking us somplace we havent been in a long time. Or connects us to someone we love dearly. That is really beautiful you found that note.
Took my daughter to see them last may in Austin and we were so excited. We never thought we would get to see them live. This has been my favorite song from them and when they started playing the first couple of chords not going to lie i started crying. One of the best concerts ive been too and glad i got to share that with my daughter.
That gave me goosebumps reading that.
👏👏👏🌸🌸🌸🌸🎉🎉🎉🕊🤍
Me too, 3rd song into the Montreal show, What an emotional release.
Amazing, I have those kind of memories with my dad and they're precious
@@mariagirard15 me as well. My favorite memories are of being with my dad seeing Linkin Park, Korn, Judas Priest and Black Sabbath with him. Ever since I had my kids I couldn't wait to do that with them too.
Cure is forever. For all life. God bless Robert Smith!
I was there to ;~)
I have lost my husband of 20 years just two years ago.This song was playing at his funeral. It breaks me completely and utterly every time.I hear it.
Oh, bless you lovely. X
hugs to you xoxo
That must be so incredibly hard & I feel for you. Let those emotions flow xx A heart that hurts is a heart that works (~ Placebo)
sending lots of love and strength ❤️

One of the most beautiful songs of all time
Claro que sí !
Well said, And one of the most underrated songs of all time.
Blessings from Ireland.
I'm in Ireland too pal 👍 🇮🇪
Without a dout,one of the Best song Eber, 👍
Never realized how beautiful it was, but as you age, and you REALLY listen, you see, just beautiful
Like a warm blanket for the soul.
This song is such a freaking masterpiece. The 80s had some of the best music ever made. "I've been looking so long at these pictures of you that I almost believe that they're real"... The Cure (Pictures Of You)...
The Cure have truly touched the hearts of many. Through agony and pain we’ve all lived through tough times! I myself suffered through childhood cancer from which I’ve lived through a lifetime of suffering. The doses of chemo and radiation given to me as a child haunt me to this day. I’ve had issues with obesity, immune system, endocrinology, arthritis, and two brain tumors that I’ve had to live through. I nearly died after the first tumor. My wife left me after the doc said it’ll take me about a year to recover. I couldn’t work during the time. The Cure has gotten me through many days of Melancholie and depression. Love the Cure❤
I'm sorry that you have been through so much pain and hardships. I pray for health, healing, and happiness over you and your life moving forward.
I'm sitting here listening to this at 2.30 in the morning...missing my dad that passed in 2020. Time doesn't make it easier. Nothing does.
I lost my mom in 2015. I feel your pain, it isn't easy. Somehow you just find the ability to keep going because that is what they would want you to do.
You’re right
I lost my amazing dad in 2006 and my beautiful husband 4 months ago. The pain is almost unbearable and time does not make it any better. This song hits me because all I have now are pictures and memories and a broken heart. The Cure’s music is pure genius.
I hear you... I also lost my dad in 2020, after a really long battle with Alzheimer's, then Covid took him. 3:20 am now, crying, missing him, and so many others. So often pictures are all that's left. What I would give, for just one more day together. One more hour.
I feel you... I lost my mom to Covid in 2021. And this song means everything to me. I had the chance to be at the concert in Mexico City last Sunday and this song was like a healing pill.
Tomorrow Lost Today
8/14/17 @ 7:45AM
Shattered porcelain every-where I turn.
Glimpsing at tomorrows and tomorrows:
Fragments from an exquisite vase.
Searching gingerly through shards
Salvaging for just one:
One not too jagged, not too sharp;
A vista through death,
Without shredding my heart,
Or puddling too much blood.
But each pane picked pierces,
Dripping crimson shaped tears.
Like rain down an autumn pane.
Tomorrow lost today.
And today lost tomorrow.
STILL SOUNDS AMAZING AFTER ALL THESE YEARS ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This song reminds me of my dad. He is The Cure's biggest fan. I remember going to Greece for vacation a few years ago. This song was playing while the sun was slowly going down. We traveled 15 hours and we listened to them most of the trip, I fell asleep around 12 AM but I could still hear my dad sing this song even tho he was super tired. I want to thank him for introducing me to this band.
My late husband died way to soon of kidney cancer after 6 months of diagnosis. Everything medically possible was tried because he desperately want to live and stay with us, his family. The heartbreak of knowing he was going while everyone he loved was staying broke him. He died under Hospice care in our home surrounded by his family. Life has never been the same since. This song is exactly how I feel. Remembering him and how he used to be in pictures is all I can do now. "How I always held him close in his fear, as he found the courage to let it all go." He was so much more than everything. There was nothing in the world that I ever wanted more is to never feel the breaking apart."
I miss him so. What a beautiful sincere heart felt song that touches my very soul!
Thank you, "The Cure."
Rest in peace, my love.
💔

Im sorry for your loss ❤
@@CiderHead Thank you! 🤗
This song reminds me of little me and how much childhood trauma changed me. It’s such a hauntingly beautiful song for so many experiences.
this is such a gift for anyone whose heart is being torn a new one by a breakup. crying at 10 pm, beer at hand, the song blasting through my earphones - it’s so sad but suddenly, there is a feeling that all is going to be okay.
It will all be alright in the end. If it's not alright, it's not the end.
After 30 years this song still doesn’t get old
This entire album is a treasure. One of my top 10s for sure. 'Wish' has some amazing music, too. More manic-depressive, but the depressive stuff is magical.
It would be immortal my friend because I know whatever generation they may be
When every phase is passed they will eventually come back to this over and over again it will never get old
80s teen here in my fifties now!! Take me back to the future to the 80s!! 🌟
It’s just timeless.❤
Os Hits do The Cure não envelhecem.
I was often alone in my youth, but always felt great comfort from Robert Smith and the Cure. Still listening today and bringing huge smiles when ever I listen! Massive love and respect!
No words to describe this music ❤️
They have never let you down
True 💞
The Cure was and is my cure...cured by The Cure for the death of my 36's years' old mother passed away because of cancer...😔
Me too
I've been looking so long at these pictures of you
That I almost believe that they're real
I've been living so long with my pictures of you
That I almost believe that the pictures are all I can feel
Remembering 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
Remembering you running soft through the night
You were bigger and brighter and wider than snow
You screamed at the make-believe, screamed at the sky
And you finally found all your courage to let it all go
Remembering you, fallen into my arms
Crying for the death of your heart
You were stone white, so delicate
Lost in the cold
You were always so lost in the dark
Remembering you how you used to be
Slow drowned, you were angels
So much more than everything
Hold for the last time then slip away quietly
Open my eyes, but I never see anything
If only I'd thought of the right words
I could have held on to your heart
If only I'd thought of the right words
I wouldn't be breaking apart all my pictures of you
Looking so long at these pictures of you
But I never hold on to your heart
Looking so long for the words to be true
But always just breaking apart
My pictures of you
There was nothing in the world that I ever wanted more
Than to feel you deep in my heart
There was nothing in the world that I ever wanted more
Than to never feel the breaking apart
My pictures of you
Thanks for the lyrics!
Thank you 😊
I farted.
thank you for these lyrics
¡Gracias!
I'm 58 and I've been a Cure fan since 1982. Their music has helped me through some of the toughest times in my life. This is my favorite song of theirs. It hits me in the gut so hard. I've lost everyone in my life. I have no family, no friends, just my memories and my pictures of you.
Bless you...hugs from me
Hang in there! People care about you!
God, I miss the 80s. So many friends have left us
Too many ❤️
These comments hit so much harder with this song playing in the background. Sending good, healing vibes to all those suffering.
Hallo 🆘 Mother Father of all creation are here on earth in person showing the way to happy living, phone home today to receive blessings!! 😊
The good thing about this song is that it describes perfectly a break up living, longing for someone, missing someone, losing someone whatever the meaning you hear it here.
Love too
Indeed …💔
Of all the great Cure songs, this one is hands down, my favorite. For some reason, I think I'll be listening to it when my beloved wife passes someday. I love the long intro and the lyrics...standing quiet in the rain. My God, so tender.
this is my favorite song from the cure, such an atmospheric sound, you can almost fall asleep with peacefull sound, and the lyrics are really good
yes,i agree,plus just like heaven,after this,genius

oooh this or fascination street. I love how they just... take their time
mine too...but my fav album is pornography...a jewel....
cure is so wonderful melancolic
big big band..
I just saw them live and god its like they recorded it yesterday. Robert Smith has such an amazing stage presence and love towards the people in the crowd- They truly delivered and over 30 songs 😍 I sobbed needless to say when the first chord of this played
Omg I’m seeing them this Sunday and I’m afraid I’m just going to cry all the way through the show😮😢.
Just saw them in Albuquerque after not seeing them since 1985. Bawled my head off with my mom who is 74, and it was on her bucket list to see The Cure.
I'm going to see them in 9 days, looking forward to it!
@@KateRockBookTours I also saw them in '85 at MSG. I'll never forget that show as long as I live.
I think of my late mother every single day. She is always in my thoughts and in my heart. I can't help but cry whenever I hear this song. Thank you The Cure for this song! 🤍
I lost my husband of 26 years to Covid on Jan. 3, 2021. Jan 27, 2022 I lost my only child in an accident. This song both breaks me and helps hold me together, if you can understand that. It is an absolute work of perfection and Robert Smith and the rest of The Cure may never fully understand how much their music means to some of us, and how much it has helped in our lives.
I lost my husband after he graduated from a 1 year rehab program, landed a great job and a new car and promptly killed himself by snorting a large dose of Fentanyl. Two doses of Narcan couldn't save him. I got through the next year by functioning like normal during each day and then locking myself in my bathroom after work every night to lie on the floor and cry scream into a pillow for hours.
My mother had Covid January 23 2021 and after two weeks of ICU was moved to a regular room and died suddenly in the early morning hours when her heart just stopped.
I totally get what you mean and I hurt with you.
From one kintsugi heart to another.
That would turn anyones world upside down. When your sad, think of the happy times together
I am so sorry :( Hoping nothing but the best for the rest of you and your families lives ❤
Sorry for your loss. 🙏🏽 days will get better. Those pictures will help brighten your day when you feel down and alone. Their laughter and smell will stay with you I pray. ❤
Nothing in the universe ceases to exist, all energy and matter simply change into something else.
Everything, without exception.
My husband and I saw The Cure a few years back with my best friends in the world and when they played this all 8 of us started crying at the same time. Best time ever.
I saw them, last night, for the 4th time. Absolutely amazing!!!
When I was younger and was filled with depression and self hatred I would listen to this and self harm. After many many years of slow healing, I listen to it and feel compassion for myself, and this song is beautiful, because your love is wonderful even if it isn't reciprocated. It's a wonderful thing to love a human with all their flaws, even if they don't love you back.
It is what it is bro. Well said.
Unrequited love....
It is a wonderful gift to love without reciprocation. very healing mentally and physically. check out Joe Dispenza's work about changing your mental paradigm. It's actually pretty simple and has saved lives. He does not claim to be the inventor or whatever. Human were created to create and PROSPER, not suffer. I just did the work recently and has already felt the impact. Become aware of your thoughts and improve them. Over and over.....do the work. We all have so much potential but shrink our mindscape way too small. Think bigger and happier!
So beautiful, so true
❤️🍀🏴☠️🙏🏽
Every comment here is new. This is an eternal song
The intro is just pure genius.
I’ve never read a more accurate comment.
Súper chingona... The best so great...
Best intro ever. I was amazed when I heard it for the first time. The rest of the song is great too but the first part before the singing starts is indeed genius.
Totally 100% spot on!
Simply the greatest ever.
Miss you Rob, feels like a lifetime since I lost you, I was only 17 now 42 and miss you everyday brother, I remember how much you used to listen to all these songs. In my heart and mind always.
Stay strong bro!
Many hugs, brother. Stay strong
I dedicated this song for my beloved father who passed away yesterday. He had 100% of my love.
I'm so sorry sweetie! X
Thank you for sharing this beautiful sentiment. I am wishing yiu and your lovely father peace
Fine choice. Sorry my friend
Sorry for your loss man... may he rest in peace.
Sorry for your loss, may your father rest in peace...btw how old he was and what the pass away cause?
To my loving cat , Archie ❤️ my prince who was the most amazing cat in the world . Love you forever my orange boy
This was "our song" but me and her moved on. I guess I had to come here one last time to really close the last memory and last bridge I have left. It's a weight taken off.
+David Harrison fantastic tune, good luck fellow internet user
+David Harrison good luck man, i hope you are feeling better
+David Harrison And sometimes - when a door coses - another door, more brightful opens...
+David Harrison I hope you are okay now David
+Hiking Fan Hahah what a brilliantly stupid response.
One of the greatest songs ever! Absolutely beautiful!!
In loving memory for my mom. She took her life back in November of 2021, one of the hardest times for me. I miss her fiercely. I love you, mom.
i wish i could give you a hug :( sending strength and love- may she rest in peace
I was reading through the comments tonight... and I'm moved to absolute heartbreak for those of you who have lost loved ones....parents, friends, even babies.
I'm sending so much love and many prayers for healing and peace to all of you.
My sister passed away in 2018 and all I have are pictures of her.
This was one of her favorite songs to listen to.
Rip Big Sis. I love you!
I lost my little sister in 1991 and this song always reminds me of her. We grew up on the Cure. 💔
She's dancing right now. God bless x
Far out

I've seen them live 4 times and I can tell you it's never enough. Beautiful song; I will always love The Cure.
No matter what mood I am in, the cure makes me feel better. ❤ Have a great Christmas anyone reading this!!!
I just realized that is why they are called The Cure!
I know exactly what both of you mean.

The initial guitar- cures my anxiety
The vocals - cures my depression
A masterpiece. I’ve only just gotten into The Cure and I am obsessed. Even though I didn’t listen to them as a teenager it makes me feel like I’m 16 again. (I’m 43)
Same age as you...
I remember buying Close To Me when it came out... 1988? Something like that I can't remember.
I was getting mum to buy me records at 3yrs old!
Pass The Dutchie by Musical Youth being my first record! 😊
Likewise, only just gotten into them myself (29 though). Brilliant music
Me too
Putz
59 here and great
I find it fascinating how Robert Smith can write something so relatable for people, a very talented man. Me and her moved on a few years ago and now live at opposite ends of the country but the words to this song pretty much speak my mind and I’ll always look at them photos.
The Cure are the most important band that has ever existed. I an sobbing, reading the messages here, Robert Smith has spoken directly to more people than any other songwriter. Astonishing genius
This thread proves it. I am 49 now, so not the 13 year old kid that discovered the already huge band the cure any more, but they are important. Reading through this thread is incredible, I hope Robert knows how much his music has helped the waifs and the strays of life.
lol...ya...no. Smith wrote some great tunes but is far from a "genius"
@@Johnnywhamothe cure were genre pioneers don't kid yourself. Them and Bauhaus practically created goth music.
Nicely put. I'm glad someone feels about him (Robert smith) as I do.
😀😃😄😁😆😅😂🤣
Back in 1989, i played guitar and sang this song on the stage of school theater in front of the entire school. My singing was sometimes off-key, but i didnt care. I sang this song for a girl that i loved very much then
😢😢
Very brave of you !
I just lost my dad. I am now playing this song full blast in my bedroom, holding a picture of my dad close to my chest. Tears just flowed uncontrollably as I reminisce on all the happy and sad moments that I have shared with him. I missed him so much. Thank you, The Cure, for this song.
so creepy
I just lost my dad too and came to this song as was thinking of playing it at the funeral. I feel your pain, keep strong x
Chris Hall , Still strong too 💕!!!
@@chrishall6056 my mum is suffering from alzheimers disease, losing at bit more of her every day...it's a slow and painful death. Was thinking of her and thought of this song.
F
My girlfriend , 35 years from the Fillipines passed away on 25 march 2021 in Cebu Hospital because of Covid. She loved this song.. I can't listen to it without tears falling..........
Im very saddened by your loss. Keep strong brother much love to you.
Here I am crying over the loss of a stranger while listening to a song that already picks my heartstrings.
I'm sorry for your loss. I wish that one day you will come to have peace of mind again. Appreciate the memories you have, and know that one day you will find happiness even in her physical aspects and let her spirit live on.
much love to you
Plenty more Filipinas in Cebu. Go for two at once this time around.
Sorry for your loss, Jan.
If you listen to this song then she left you a gift, my friend. As hard as it is, know that she is still with you. Love never dies it only changes form. Much love to you ❤
This song always brings me back to the mid 80s in Alabama. Our awesome group of misfits. We were so blessed!
My partner took her life at age 24 bit not before dancing with me to this and so many other Cure songs; but this one is so very personal since losing her. 23 yrs on and I still almost can't believe it was all real
My god, this is traumatically sad. I'm really sorry. I find it beautiful that you are keeping said persons memory alive and still have them in your thoughts. Good on you
Please RUclips search "Jim Tucker's Reincarnation Documentary." and ask friends who have kids if their little ones have birth marks or recurring nightmares. How did your partner take her or his own life? if it left wound marks, look for kids with birthmarks in the same part of the body on the kid that your partner wounded his/her self. One can't escape life's lessons so easily. One's individual Consciousness must learn from life. ☮️🎶🖖

Reincarnation just ain't for J.C. Reincarnation occurs on every continent. it's more like an individual Consciousness going along for a 2nd chance to get things right. ☮️🎶🖖
@@jeffjohnson8624 Thank you. I will have a look. Left no marks. She wouldn't want to hear the extra trauma of that on top. Again, thank you
'I.m so sorry and my deepest condollences.. my betterhalf passed away too.. it's hard to cope...God bless u..💗
Dedicated to my best friend who died in August. This was the last song he sang when we were at a karaoke bar. Also dedicated to my ex who I lost recently. I miss her everyday.
I have seen to many go...some of them reached for me not wanting to go...desperate to stay...I did my best to comfort them...as they left
Sorry to hear that
@@nwinkler07 Its ok...it was my job...and its ok to be sad...25 Years EMTP...that part of my life is over. Hope you are good.
So sorry for your loss!
@nwinkler07 I know what you are going through, my best friend accidentally shot himself in the head and when I got the call I knew it was an accident I'm so glad it was an accident but I miss him every second I'm awake he passed on October 1st 2022
The Cure is literally the cure for depression their music is so nostalgic and memory inducing to times that were much simpler ❤ light and love to all listening to them searching for their cure 🎶🙏💕
The best cure is ram's blood. Nostalgia? I'm so prehistoric
