After watching their 2003 Trilogy shows on Blu-Ray (three full albums in sequence: Pornography, Disintegration, and Bloodflowers), I remember thinking if ever saw the Cure live, I could probably die happy if they opened with "Plainsong." Fast forward to 2016, and I saw them live, and to my eternal joy they opened with "Plainsong" (no guarantee on that tour, as they often opened with "Shake Dog Shake" or "Tape"), and the second song they played was... "Pictures of You." They played thirty-four songs (three encores!) that afternoon/evening.

Same. I was young and dumb and was "too cool" to listen to them because I was trying to associate my dumb-ass middle school/early high school persona to harder music! Also, Love Song would come on every morning followed by Personal Jesus by Depeche mode on the school bus when I was half asleep and hungry and thought that was the only song they had. Fortunately, it only took a few years to fall in love with them and also see them live.

One of the best, influential alternative, indie, post-punk, new wave (darkwave/gothic) bands, kind of shoegazy/ethereal/psychedelic, too that came around late '70s. Gained mainstream during the '80s and '90s. Lex is spot on as well. Check out more of The Cure! Also take a deep dive into similar goth bands to them like Killing Joke, Sisters of Mercy, Depeche Mode, Sioxsee and the Banshees, Joy Division, The Church, Echo and the Bunnymen, and others.

The Cure tends to write songs using a minor modality of a major key. This creates a vibe that is melancholy yet hopeful. Robert is singing about the grief of loss, but it's not a pit of despair. Both the words and music have a certain joy in remembering the happy moments together.

There is an 8 minute long version of this song which I personally think is the definitive version. Lex is absolutely right though. This song isn't sad to me, despite the subject matter. It fills me with hope too, it's pure, wistful remembrance of love lost. It's beautiful and fragile but ultimately comforting in a very odd way. It's simply a song that speaks to me. I go though phases of loving different songs but Pictures of You has never been far from my heart. If there's one last song I ever hear in my life this would be the one I want to go out on. Just perfection.

A longstay of the british indie band scene starting late 70s and developed more mainstream as 80s progressed. Robert Smith still going strong. Seen them live several times in the 80s Glastonbury to a live concert in France. Like The Smiths wrote catchy melancholy songs. Always loved this and that great intro. A typical product of the early UK Indie scene. Indeed this has been used in several movies. I think notably in a John Hughes 90s movie, The Vow, but recently Mr robot.

I discovered The Cure in the late 80s. This song was a sad love song, creative and haunting. Their music covers a broad spectrum of sounds yet the common denominator is the originality. My husband and I were in the early years of our marriage and Love Song was a favorite too, of course. We lost our first born shortly before her 2nd birthday. A beautiful little spirit with huge eyes whom everyone who met her said she looked like a doll. She did. This song took on a new meaning after she passed. Plain Song is another. But the fact that one can feel their songs on various levels is part of their talent. They paved the way for others, Green Day comes to mind. So lovely seeing you both react. Thank you for sharing! 😽💋🎶

Y'all need to watch the fantastic movie Sing Street. Set in the 1980s, it's about a young Irish boy who starts a band to impress a girl and escape his troubles, of which he has many. Of note, the film introduces the concept of "happy sad," and the music of the Cure is given as a definitive example. So you're both right on this one. Much of the Cure's catalog is a unique blend of hopefulness and melancholy. Tip: If you watch the movie, turn your subtitles on. Some of the Irish accents are think enough that it's easy to miss a few lines. SO worth it, though!

This song is brilliant and beautiful. It's also to me more about loss. It could be death it could be an old friendship or an old love that you reminisce about- maybe the dude got dumped like you said Brad - but over time you often forget the specifics and zone in on the vibe which this song is all about. It's just a deep resonant melancholia about how hard it is to keep love alive. It's a goodbye kiss to the dearly departed -alive or dead.

The played a long show, but still included a medley do to having a big catalog. It takes dedication to accomplish that - you have to play those songs over and over together to become that in sync. They have such a unique sound - his vocals are very distinct, but i can always tell a The Cure song just from the music.

Talking some old school goth here. What I love about The Cure is that whether people realize it or not, everyone knows a Cure song. They may not realize it was by The Cure, but they all know at least one song by them. Their songs were so infectious that they crossed genres and boundaries with little effort and they were used in everything from movies, to even radio ads. The lyrics are very general audience friendly, pop-ish and super catchy. Goth is all about finding the beauty in sadness, the art in death. Robert Smith still writes songs to this day.

Since Brad loves Weezer so much, check out the Flamin' Groovies. They started late '60s playing bluesy garage rock, proto-punk type of stuff, which is phenomenal. Songs like Heading for the Texas Border still slap hard. Their first album without the original lead singer, Shake Some Action, takes a turn to a more beat driven pop sound. I bet the guys from Weezer listened to that album a lot. Check out the title song off that album, it's a timeless classic.

Now you're in the good stuff. Believe it or not that's a shortened version. It has such a hypnotic, mantra-like quality I can listen to it for hours (OK lots of minutes) without getting bored. Yes very positive sound, I completely agree.

The Cure are their own vibe and have three main strands in their music: pure, perfect melodic pop (e.g. "Just Like Heaven" or "Boys Don't Cry"), goofball madcap lunacy (e.g. "The Caterpillar" or "The Love Cats") and dark, moody existential goth (e.g. "The Figurehead" or "A Forest").

It's crazy that Robert had the creative depths to write songs like The Figurehead and The Lovecats within about 18 months of each other (not to mention the contributions to Siouxsie and the Banshees songs and The Glove album). I mean - Pornography, Japanese Whispers and The Glove all happened between 1982 and 1983 with Hyaena by the Banshees releasing in 84. And then he rolls off all that and writes a pscyhedelic trip called The Top.

@@zoeherriot Some really good bands write maybe twenty great songs in their career, and that's fine, but I swear the Cure must be somewhere between fifty and a hundred, possibly more. I know I tried to create a playlist once, and it just got too unwieldy.

The Cure are fantastic and timeless. this is my favorite song of theirs. The lyrics to this song are absolute poetry. It's not about him being dumped though, I don't believe. 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 Robert Smith is also underrated as a guitarist

Oh, I just thought that "Lullaby" would be an awesome song for reactions. Also, Lex is spot on. Hopeful-sounding music. In 1987 I met the Cure and told Robert Smith that their music cheered me up after being in the hospital from a devastating car accident. We hugged and he laughed and said something like "Cheered you up?" But it's the truth. I spent six months at home in a body cast and their music took me through many emotions. "Give Me It" was my anger and frustration song, and "Sinking" (a beautiful song) can make me weep. But it was cathartic and just kept me sane lying in that bed. Easily one of my favorite bands.
