    I'm never boring to see the young and angry Rob Smith ! He was bloody sexy. His style is haunting. Love The CURE and Rob is the boss !(Friendly from France) A true fan of them since I was a teenager.

    Robert Smith was only 23 years old. I was 14 and I was listerning to The CURE ! Always loved their haunting sound and the deep lyrics ! Robert Smith is 62 now and his voice is the same. He's growing older of course. Time waits for nobody. He's not so hot and sexy but he's still charming. Great performer with Great talent ! Timeless band !

    It's so amazing how now in 2012 I can simply search UA-cam for these gems. Back in the day we only had grainy VHS Bootlegs from England. Today you can access anything! :) Kids today have no idea. :)

      @@elianyb56 I talking about Robert. The band name "The Smiths" I believe is taken from that couple with the last name "Smith" that knew who had committed the Moor Murders in the early to mid sixties. They dealt with a lot of backlash from the public after the trial and seems like an emotional connection Morrisey would use.
