The Drowning Man is The Cure at their finest! I Never get tired of this track and it STILL moves me tremendously.

It’s the only song in the world that, every time I listen, makes me shudder and raise the hair on my arms...

@alexcurd 17 жыл бұрын

What can I say? My skin still shivers 25 years later, when I listen to it again... a pure essence of the Romantic age, forlorn... echoing in the emptiness of past...

Hey if you haven’t heard, I suggest you listen to the Live in Sydney 1981 version of this. I think it’s the best version, it sounds really eerie and haunting.

@@USMCLP yes... definitely... I just melt... I can't listen to it much tbh though... I become an emotional mess and just wan to cry my eyes out 🤪 It's a mind-blowingly gorgeous song that is also my own personal emotional torture instrument 🙈 I do love it though

@dalej6987 2 жыл бұрын

Considering the song lyrics, I would say that his age matters even more. I would say his age is what makes this version so good.

@markharris8703 7 жыл бұрын

'Drowns her at its ease' are the beautiful words of Mervyn Peake from the Gormenghast novels, where Fushia Groan accidentally drowns in the second book. This song is all about that. I read the books as a teenager, and then many years later finally realised I heard 'Fushia' in the song, and then realised the connection.

@dannysummers1261 6 жыл бұрын

Mark Harris that is amazing I waited many yrs to find out the purpose for this haunting song and now I can read it as well

@Smokingpoetry 6 жыл бұрын

Danny Summers that trilogy takes a lot of patience, but it's really well written. You start with Titus Groan, then Gormenghast, then Titus Alone. Robert sort of fell in love with the character Fuchsia, and he says he cries when he reads about her death. If you actually get through the books, I hope you enjoy them! A lot of Robert Smith's lyrics are based off of books, and they tend to be good ones!

@dannysummers1261 6 жыл бұрын

Mark Harris I listened to my first cure album at 13 and it was the drowning man that stood out for many yrs I thought Robert Smith took it from life then the color fuchsia I thank you so much 2o yrs or more I found out that answer I have to read it....

@myfragilelilac 6 жыл бұрын

I havent read the book yet, but yes I know the reference. Should read it. I love Robert for that reason. Though he had the punk thing going on, he had literal references, instead of lashing out on the system like everyone else. Or whining about politics. They became more interesting in that way.

@nickhybner8485 5 жыл бұрын

Mark Harris seems Roberts a bit of a book worm writing songs from numerous books. Such a talented artist. I’ve been listening to the cure for 35 years! Bless you Mark
