in between days
fascination street
pictures of you
close to me
high
from the edge of the deep green sea
never enough

A Night Like This has always been one of my favorites.

While Staring at the Sea might be an obvious choice because it's a singles collection, I would just recommend getting Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me, because it probably has the widest range of musical styles of any Cure album, which would give you an idea of what they can really do. It was also their breakthrough record, and is high on the list of many fan's favorites.

So bassy, did you finally listen to some Cure songs?

learn2kneel · 04-07-2005, 10:22 PM

I think everyones heard Friday, I'm in Love but alot of people don't know its a cure song.

i think starting with disengration is a good idea it has alot of classics.

Why can't I be you? The Cure sucks. Consider yourself lucky.

IMHO

No. I am dead serious. The singer is constantly annoying and embarrasingly creepy. What's with big shirts and tight pants? He's like 50 and still wears that make-up.

His vocals are mediocre, at best. Hardly any technique. The songs are decent but nothing really special. The few people that enjoy their music overate them. None of the musicians are particularly good and the songs don't really convey anything special. *yawn*

This is hands down the best example I've ever seen of using personal opinion as fact. I dont know if I should congratulate you or hit you in the face with a shovel.

Alright, just imagine three letters right before everything I wrote: IMHO.

There, I just rendered your post useless.

As a matter of fact, I'm editing mine.

Dude. I'm speechless. Dude. Anyways, it is so difficult to pick a song.

Pop: Just Like Heaven, In Between Days, High

Rock: Killing an Arab, A Forest

Anyways, you must listen to the Cure. Robert Smith is an extremely talented vocalist/songwriter/guitarist. Just brilliant.

Dionisius · 07-04-2005, 05:33 AM

The Caterpillar is a great song!!

Basstrap · 07-04-2005, 06:16 AM

fancy seeing this thread here again.
since last year I've been a good little boy and I've gotten my 8 hours of Cure.
I like Robert Smiths voice, by the way

Dionisius · 07-04-2005, 06:20 AM

I saw them in Paris Live 8 (Thanks AOL!!).

Unfortunately they had some technical problems on the stage.
But when they started 'Boys Don't Cry'

MsMofoGone · 07-04-2005, 06:50 AM
