She was the reason this song didn't become #1 at the Hot 100 Billboard charts in October 1989. Lovesong reached #2 and at the same week, Janet Jackson had a single that peaked the top charts for 4 weeks. I wished Lovesong could then steal her the #1 but it descended the next week to #11.

I remember seeing an ENTIRE 14 hrs of various bands playing at an all day concert. The Cure was headlining and I'd never seen them b4. I endured 90 degree sun from 10 am to 6pm. Got drunk, stayed awake thru the hang over and started my buzz again when they finally came on around midnight. I had listened to some seriously grade A bands at the time (the 90's) and when The Cure came on it sounded like they put a CD in and played it. No distortion, no feedback, no mess ups. PERFECT vocals PERFECT everything. I was BLOWN AWAY!!!!!! They still sound amazing 25+ yrs later.
