    This is my favorite song. It sounds unlike anything I've ever heard. It's the only song that's dark and creepy but also feels like a dreamy fantasy movie without having to get too psychedelic. Even feels like a reggae song the way the guitars strum along to the bass.

    This song is NOT about MOLESTATION!! It's is about drug addiction. Robert Smith himself has even said its about addiction and the director of the video said its "allegory of Smith's druggy past". If you know anyone with addiction and have seen them come off of something...you can see the likeness of the lyrics to their detox.

    There's a story that Robert Smith tells about this song, one about his uncle telling him scary stories as a kid that involved a flesh-eating "Spider Man" that hunts down children. One night, the uncle decided to crawl into Robert's window while he was sleeping because apparently he just thought it was funny to scare him...
    I honestly believe there's a LOT more to the story than what he's told out loud, and that something far more traumatic happened between him and his uncle than him just "thinking it was funny to scare him." Just really listen to the lyrics and you'll see exactly what I'm talking about...

      Like, it's almost unnecessarily creepy. The gothic edge of The Cure is essentially parodied in this video, and overblown for an artistic effect. I don't find it necessary, and I liked the subtlety of the Lovesong music video that allowed this aesthetic to show without overwhelming the audience.

    On candy stripe legs the Spiderman comes
    Softly through the shadow of the evening sun
    Stealing past the windows of the blissfully dead
    Looking for the victim shivering in bed
    Searching out fear in the gathering gloom and
    Suddenly
    A movement in the corner of the room
    And there is nothing I can do
    When I realize with fright
    That the Spiderman is having me for dinner tonight
    Quietly he laughs and shaking his head
    Creeps closer now
    Closer to the foot of the bed
    And softer than shadow and quicker than flies
    His arms are all around me and his tongue in my eyes
    Be still be calm be quiet now my precious boy
    Don't struggle like that or I will only love you more
    For it's much too late to get away or turn on the light
    The Spiderman is having you for dinner tonight
    And I feel like I'm being eaten
    By a thousand million shivering furry holes
    And I know that in the morning I will wake up
    In the shivering cold
    And the Spiderman is always hungry.

      i'm gonna be 41 at the end of the month, so I was fortunate enough to be old enough as a kid to enjoy the 80's. My only bone to pick with you is that indie rock was not indie rock til the mid-90's. That'"s how I feel, anyways. it is like when people say Nirvana invented grunge I get all hot and bothered because they forgot about one group that came before them and started it and burned the fuck out on crack, heroine, and tyrannies in space boots. Have you figured it out? If you said Jane's Addiction, you are correct. After Nirvana , then came the rest: Sound Garden, Pearl Jam, Creed, and Im so sorry about the book I just sent ya, holly shit, man. I gotta lay off the addies. Who did you have in mind for indies? cause the rest was punk and big-hair cast-overs from the 70's and 80's.

      Mother Love Bone with Andrew Wood was the original Seattle grunge band that formed from 80's hair bands. AIC's Would, Temple of the Dog and much more are all dedications to him. Layne, Andrew, Chris, Scott, all worked together at the Music Bank and used Heart's recording studio. Pearl Jam with Gossard and Mccready is simply MLB lite.

      Saw this video when it came out back in the day, and I thought it was creepy as hell---the song was weird enough, but saw this and I was like, "WTF!?" I liked the Cure anyway, and really liked this song, so I watched it anyway,lol.

    I read this song was based on bed time stories Robert's father used to read to him. If he couldn't fall asleep his father would tell him a story that always ended with a monster eating him. How sick is that?

      Yes i definitely see the German Expressionist style in goth and specially the Cure. Look at Robert Smith in this video and look at the sleepwalker in Cabinet of Dr Caligary. Same style of makeup etc.
      Search "Vincent Tim Burton" to see a very early tim burton projetc.
