    I admire the choreographer cause it's not that easy to arrange a BALLET choreography to music such like this when u don't want to screw up it.
    The dance is an addiction to this song. Pure art.

  • @kafkasfranze
    @kafkasfranze 10 месяцев назад +1

    This is such a minimalistic piece of music- but so effective. While the guitar chords could be played by any beginner, the secret of this song lies in the haltingly, kind of saturnian rhythm, which was congenial implemented by this choreography. I really like it very much.

  • @BlackMale84
    @BlackMale84 13 лет назад +4

    Thanks to whoever posted this rare masterpiece of The Cure. I'm also a big fan of The Cure as well, what i really like about this song is that it's very sparse and has an unrelenting feel conjuring raw emotion that digs into the mind frame listening to it that we all need somebody one time or another. The ballet dancing fits perfectly with the song telling the story of those "Siamese Twins" that cant survive without each other. Excellent song.

    Just to let thsoe know, the cure was collaborating with the Royal Ballet to make a show on stage featuring this and more of the Cure's songs of that time. The project never came to fruition but while they were working on the project, they appeared on British TV performing/dancing to this song a a sneak preview of the show. (continued)

    Some of the thoughts Robert conveys, in not just this song but the others from Pornography, are timeless. They provide the listener comfort in a twisted manner, demonstrating some powerfully dark lyrics that are nearly unmatched in all of music.

    Dansant dans ma poche
    Les vers mangent ma peau
    Elle rayonne et grandit
    Avec les bras bien étendus
    Ses jambes autour de moi
    Le matin j'ai pleuré
    Laisse moi mourir
    Tu ne te souviendras pas de ma voix
    Je me suis enfui et j'ai vieilli
    Tu ne souries jamais
    Je hurle
    Tu n'es rien
    Je n'ai plus besoin de toi
    Tu n'es rien
    Ça se fane et file...
    Chante fort
    Nous mourrons tous
    En riant dans le feu
    Est-ce toujours comme ça ?

    I'm a big fan of the Cure, but this song (and the entire Pornography album in general) has always resonated with me the most. The song is unrelentingly bleak, conjuring up images of oppressive colors, distorted shapes and surreal landscapes. The ballet dancing is perfect; with those two "siamese twins" that can't live with or without each other, dancing in their vicious cycle. I'll go ahead and click this as a favorite.

    Hm. You have a pretty good point there. Personally, I think you shouldn't like or dislike some band or music just because it does or does not get catagorized into some certain genre. Or not like the way it's catagorized. When you listen to something, you shouldn't just care about what genre it is or anything. Like music that is appealing to your ears.
