The Top is my favourite album of theirs. Unreal to hear the whole album that magic night...

You have a good taste in music. It is a very special Cure album that often goes unnoticed by the majority in comparison to 'Head on the Door' and 'Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me'. :-)

It's brilliant and, at times, as dark as anything they've ever put out. This one and Empty World are pitch black.

Pornography takes you to the edge, but The Top takes you over the cliff.......... Tragically underrated Masterpiece in their collection of albums... It's pure psychedelica and Robert Smith totally out of his head... if you ever wanted to hear the Robert Smith solo album, this is as close as you're ever going to get........

@@JRStephens5005 I listened to the darkest tracks- this, Empty World, Shake Dog Shake, over and over again after buying the album the year of release. It took many many years before I was diagnosed with clinical depression and found a pharmaceutical remedy, and to understand why these songs spoke to me so.

Lucky to be old enough to have been at the Top tour - this track was always my pick off the album and live, the guitar solo at the end, could saw your head off..

Mysterious, creepy, haunted, the stuff of nightmares! Simon sitting down and playing bass like a gargoyle; Robert doing slide with that weird cacophony....I love it!! The sleep-walking pace. Perfection.

I think songs should be played at their original speed to retain their mood. But, it seems like most bands speed them up live.

He plays the chords on the bass. That is why it sounds somewhat like a guitar.

the feel of the drums here is all wrong? listen to andy anderson’s part it’s much more behind the beat and chaotic
