El único guitarrista de los Cure y no existirá otro, el genio de Porl Thompson se extraña y demasiado en los Cure, ya no hay guitarras hoy son puros chillidos y Smith hace lo que puede, falta la magia de Porl, el que dio vida a las místicas guitarras de los mejores discos, canciones y conciertos de la banda, que regrese el maestro Porl Thompson.

@@idontwantgoogletofindoutmy558 Meaning he had his penis surgically constructed into a clitoris? I don't fully know all of the odds & ends of sex change surgery....I imagine that the bladder & prostate gland are kept the same, just the urethra is shortened, and of course the scrotum is made into the vagina pushed up in. I have nothing against transsexuals, I just still consider them the gender that they were born as. So unless I ever meet Pearl and he demands me to refer to him as she/her, I'm going to still say he/him. I wish him nothing but good luck though. :)

@Mr.Swankly 2 жыл бұрын
Hi I’ve always regarded the cure as theee most staunchly Hetero band out there with the likes of Motley Crue. To my knowledge no Gaybird has ever been in the cure. I thought that you might know that it’s common knowledge to anyone who even dabbled in The Cure through the 80’s 90’s that he was married like so long to Robert Smiths sister and had 4 kids with her. Ok this part gets me, they split around 2000. He paints with his artist newest girlfriend who herself is named after a famous Spaniard her name being Dali’esque. The surrealist painter who had his personal valet spray him with various scents at intervals before waking so he could better vibe with his dream as they were fodder for his latest masterpiece and he always did have one. He did credit being a Spaniard for various reasons of his genius. So Pearl is dating or was as of 19 preplague at the induction which is the video you called him gay in the comment sections. I think you’re more than a Cure Dabbler and you knew their Herero heritage and yes the guitarist Porls marriage to Roberts sister. It was a joke about the name change, appearance and mannerisms. JESTER! You knew at some point someone would get sidetracked in by your super gay thing. Ok I get it haha.
