That's how they always did it on shows when they mimed. No fucks given. There are shows where they switched instruments, etc. A great version of Just Like Heaven exists where Pearl is on drums, Boris on acoustic guitar, Lol on bass and Simon on keys : ua-cam.com/video/oDKoVDy0oq8/v-deo.htmlsi=QSrceJFRjFGfy1ue
I distinctly remember seeing this performance of "Close To Me" with the ladies of Bananarama participating on Countdown at the time (I was merely 13), and seeing this footage again for the first time since almost 38 years brings a BIG smile to my face....:-)
esta canción se la dedico a mi primo ya fallecido Roberto guerrieris soto que yo se que a el le gustaba este tipo de música igual que a mi unos de los mejores momentos mas felices de mi vida fue cuando viví en el hatillo su casa pero me tuve que mudar buenos recuerdos
I wouldn’t care it looks like countdown used to have some acts that didn’t mime, I saw INXS play and extreme play, the ones that mimed look really uncomfortable
It seems like there was some rebellion during the performance. It appeared to be a playback, and The Cure didn't seem to enjoy it, so they were goofing around. Robert wasn't putting in much effort, which usually happens when TV shows don't allow live singing and prefer playback.
Ils s'amusent eux-mêmes d'être en playback, c'est très drôle : le synthé danse, le bassiste joue avec une femme et lors du saxo, ils ne font aucun effort pour cacher la supercherie hahaah.
love how they don't even hide to pretend to be singing live
Check out their Top of The Pops performances😅
I love how they took the piss out of count down and not even bother plugging their instruments in
i agree. the cure fully acknowledge and want the audience to know that they are lipsycing. it is an beautifully ironic performance.
Nobody cared

With every year older the Cure gets better

I never thought I would like so much a playback playing
Not even trying and it's still bad ass
I love the sound...
Love how the Bananarama ladies just casually walk on the stage
I love how big his hair looks here, it makes me so happy for literally no reason lmao
“Bananarama were the first band I met who managed to drink with us until the end!” - Robert Smith.
Luv that BIG hair look.
The Show I Love
Classic tune 🔥💙
Just saw The Cure Nights 1 and 2 at Madison Square Garden and secretly hoped Bananarama would turn up during one of those nights for Close to Me.
they/ them all is so purdy.....
i love how silly they are pretending to play 😂
Piece of art !
That Hair was original and unique!
wat mis ik die tijd....
(playback is over - finslly); "'kay, this the cure with close to you!" man, the scream I give lol
play back everywhere lol

The Memories!
AWESOME
Me encanta.... Felicito la calidad de imagen lograda!
MARAVILHA AMOR ESSA MÚSICA😊😊❤
Echt cool, ik keek dit altijd.
“Hier is The Cure met So close to you”?? Goed bezig 😂
programa holandés de los eighty. clásico.
wow he sounds so good live
I think it’s a backing track
TV show playback.
😅se nota que no querían hacer PLAYBACK.. jaja! los genios odian éso, pero las compañías disckeras los obligaban...
playback for sure but they didn't mind they were having great fun haha!
Is that Adam Curry from MTV? What a bad ass performance from the Cure.
It is indeed! He does a podcast now (for over 15 years!) called No Agenda. Still doing radio, essentially.
A. Yes, this was him before crossing the pond and becoming a(n) MTV VJ.
B. Irony.
Bien por Lol y Simon que descontrolaron el Play Back
Puta madre que grandiosa canción que ya me dieron ganas de bailar...! Increíble The Cure en esa época ❤🙌🏻
A mi tambien me encanta, saludos desde Iquique Chile.
melhor playback que já acompanhei. haha
Ben Affleck always keeps surprising us!!!!

Ages a go...but still,the Best. 🫶
se rien porque no toca la trompeta.. que chanta
"So close to you"
Het nummer is duidelijk beter van kwaliteit dan de presentator...
This is probably playback, but I am not sure about this... 😉
It is, but they can perform good without any auto tune unlike today's plastic vulgar toys masquerading as musicians.
💕💕💕💕💕💋
Ни одного русского комментария 😁
«Мальчишник»- Девушка в красном😎
I love it when bands pay back their employers when they tell them to mime.....
real🦋
никогда не видел такой впечатляющей фанеры )))
It seems that The Cure did not like to pretend to play the instruments with Playback
No, no they didn't. Even in (I believe?) The music video for a forest if you look close, you can see how loose the bass strings are, it's hilarious
1985 but it sounds like '90s. 😱
0:35 lol laurence tholust
С девушками из Bananarama хорошо провели время😊
cuando todo era diferente conocias a una chica y hacias el amor sin preservativo y a los 2 o 3 dias conocias a los padres. era todo mas inocente
Robert Smith......The Prince of evething!!!!
Роберт, очевидно, всем нутром ПРОТИВ фанеры😢, как бы ни силился
That audience was a group of petrified zombies.
3:04 🤣🤣
💯👌🌹💞
2024?
como se noto q estaban incómodos con el playback
A night off for the band.
From the album "Wat zit m'n haar raar"
It seems like there was some rebellion during the performance. It appeared to be a playback, and The Cure didn't seem to enjoy it, so they were goofing around. Robert wasn't putting in much effort, which usually happens when TV shows don't allow live singing and prefer playback.
🪐🔥🪐🔥🪐
The Audience were COMATOSE ..maybe they realized the Show makes the Bands LIPSNYC...
Группа "Кино" убежала из чата,!
A band like The Cure don't like and don't need to make playback. It's obvious they are uncomfortable here and prefer dancing, embarrassed moments
They had met Bananarama at the airport in London and started drinking with them there. They are hammered
Was het alleen maar zijn haar wat raar zat bij Curry.
Lol Tolhurst dance
Ils s'amusent eux-mêmes d'être en playback, c'est très drôle : le synthé danse, le bassiste joue avec une femme et lors du saxo, ils ne font aucun effort pour cacher la supercherie hahaah.
From the playback you can see that there is zero desire to sing in this show!
1985 is over
lip synching?
NA
Its the Lipstick..
When an artist plays from playback, he ceases to be an artist... total lack of respect for the listener
Que mamada no?
what a terrible performance miming doesnt work
у них уже в те времена все по ппзте пашло судя по питоргам накрашеным)))
