I want to go back in time to 1984 and tell Robert that not only will he still be playing in a group in 9 years, he will still be in the same group in 29 years... in 32 years... with essentially their 40th anniversary looming.
¡Ha! ¡Ha! Robert was speaking from the shortsightedness of relative youth. Truth is when you make timeless music, it is meant to last, and much of the Cure's music is timeless.
(Reply to Jack Nick) I know right? Mr Thrasher could also offer to pick me up a bottle of my favourite parfum Enjoli Midnight & Black Widow/Raven Red lipsticks which have since been discontinued. 😼
he is a FTM female to male transgender like all the famous artists since at least 100 years.. He was born a woman, that's why you find him soft. Because she is not hiding who she is...
Almost 40 years ago Robert Smith said he’d be quitting soon. We all say things when we are young that we meant at the time but realistically were never going to happen. I remember thinking I was old at 25, by the time I reached 40 I realised 25 was young and I thought 40 was old. Now I’m 51 I think 40 was young. Some things never change… So I’m very happy that Robert Smith never did quit.
Hi, I just see this the first time. Robert says in the interview that he is feeling to get to the end. That was 1984 (I already listened to The Cure by then) and now I'm looking forward to see them again in November 2022. Robert, you were wrong which makes your fans very happy.
God I love this video. Ironically to what he says abt quitting I’ve just seen them live last week. Seeing your favourite band ever live is the closest to magic you can ever get, so thanks Rob, for everything. Please don’t stop for a long time from now, you and your little band mean the world to me. Makes my silly little heart beat faster every time, I’ll always adore you 🥹🖤
Robert Smith: Gorgeous, Intelligent, Wise Beyond His Years, Ever So Talented & Charismatic, With A Soft Buttery Talking Voice, A Versatile Singer & A One Of A Kind Musical Sound. Loyal to his Wife Mary, whom he has been with since 89?, Is Charitable, Has A Great Sense Of Humor & Is Cute & Funny, Has A Great Personality, Runs Pretty Much Everything For The Cure, & Is In Control Of The Way The Music Is Produced, Takes Care Of Bookings, Travel, Etc. & That Is Impressive ! He Cares About His Fans, & Will Fight For A Cause & The List Goes On. I'm In Love With Him & I Will Always Love Him & The Cure's Music.😍🔥🎵❤️💋🌹😀
He was so drugged out in 1984. His manager Chris Parry warned him about the danger - “Parry's second cautionary gesture was made after The Top album in 1984, when Smith's drink and drug problem ("everything but smack") was at its height. "That album was a struggle. Robert looked terrible, puffy-faced, eyes bleary, sores on his lips. He was always listless. I was worried that he was going to have a heart attack” He still looks gorgeous in this though…
Really love finding these interviews! I find their most interesting years from 1980 to about ‘85, so this was a nice treat. It just occurred to me that I’ve spent so much listening to The Cure and reading about the members, but haven’t really seen much of what their actual personalities are like off stage other than a vague idea in my head, just because their interviews are so few and far between. On a side-note, it’s pretty interesting to hear him say he say here he might stop music altogether here, he seems like his mind is made up. I guess he had a change of heart, at least partially.
Totally. I was 16 when I saw this interview; I recorded it and watched it about a 100 times! I’ve just watched it again and he’s just as sexy and gorgeous as I thought he was all those years ago! Just lovely.
Very pivotal moment of their career at this time. They'd just sacked Andy Anderson and were just starting with Boris Williams and months later Simon Gallup came back and they made Head on the Door
Great vid, thanks for uploading as well, my all time favorite band. I don't know what I like more, the Cure, or telling people my favorite band is the Cure and watching their bewildered face because well, they're clueless.
Well… who wouldn’t with a face like that!! But I’m sure most if not all of the fangirls really do appreciate his amazing work aswell as the pretty face
Yes, he first played with them in 1979 on the Join Hands tour (in which The Cure supported Siouxsie and the Banshees) after their drummer and guitarist had walked out, then later joined them as a proper member from late 1982 until April (I think) 1984.
He is from Crawley, from the posh (for Crawley) bit of Milton Mount. It is middle class London with a tiny bit of Sussex - my working class londoner parents thought they way I pronounce school (rhymes with shawl) and water (long a waarter). Robert lived round the corner from Gareth Southgate (who is 12 years younger). They are both cautious and considered, and use the weight of their ideas for power.
my my his voice is SO soft, it's just like heaven
Like what you did there, heaven indeed. #legend
if you searched for a hundred years you wouldn't find a better voice.....
I want to go back in time to 1984 and tell Robert that not only will he still be playing in a group in 9 years, he will still be in the same group in 29 years... in 32 years... with essentially their 40th anniversary looming.
Gary Thrasher that's all youd wanna do if u went to 1984? wow, so selfish
¡Ha! ¡Ha! Robert was speaking from the shortsightedness of relative youth. Truth is when you make timeless music, it is meant to last, and much of the Cure's music is timeless.
It is so wonderful to see the 40th Ann. Coming up after all these years. What a wonderful journey for Robert ,the Band, and us fans.

He’s so soft spoken and shy... god I’m in love
get a job!

I could listen to his voice all day!
I sometimes do :)
It's so relaxing ❤
His speaking voice was just so smooth........ I'm in love immediately.

2:30 he is angelic and beautiful. Such a talent, too. Legendary.

He still looks gorgeous in this though…
The glove was an acid trip. One of my favorite albums, but goddam it was a trip.
Beautifully soft spoken British Gent. Hot as the sun and thank god he didn’t STOP! Hyde park 2018 Robert 😘
I will be there up front and ready. Coming from Florida USA
back home after that hyde park gig, f**king wonderful set!
Actually English Gentleman
Robert Smith is one of the greatest music legends, his guitar skills are out of this world, 80's music is still the best!
Interviewer: So Lovecats...
Robert: No
Cried at this - so funny
1984 was peak Robert Smith
His appearance is so attractive
One is in agreement with your statement
What a fascinating man.
Robert Smith is a God!
He IS GOD.
Is there a god or a simple need to invent one.............
Love his hair always have love the man!
What a treasure this is!! Robert.....so beautiful❤
He's hot AF here. And that voice...
He is always segsy ngl
@@moonpriest8016 agreed bestie 😫🤚

RIP Andy Anderson, miss you man!!!
He’s so shy and modern day interviewers don’t get that. They’re all in his face and it’s just like.... no?

Hyæna is a great album he was on. Dazzle and Dear Prudence are part of Siouxsie and the Banshees best songs from their entire catalog.
And yet Dear Prudence wasn't even her song...
@@ArchivedMaterials I love their version vs the Beatles, even though I love the Beatles more than Sioux and the Banchees. If I had to choose.
A great album. I think they did a great cover of Dear Prudence even though I still prefer the original.
Lovely to see the late, great Andy Anderson on drums here.
I'm so glad that youtube wasn't around when I was a teen. I was already so in love with him, these videos would have made it worse!
19 year old who loves robert here....struggling everyday hahaaahahaha
Totally. I was 16 when I saw this interview; I recorded it and watched it about a 100 times! I’ve just watched it again and he’s just as sexy and gorgeous as I thought he was all those years ago! Just lovely.
He is a genius, just that!!!!
Hes So Adorable i Cant 😩😩😩♥️♥️♥️
Very pivotal moment of their career at this time. They'd just sacked Andy Anderson and were just starting with Boris Williams and months later Simon Gallup came back and they made Head on the Door
his band had a great influence on the most famous legendary russian rock-band kino
Who?what?why?...........????????
Great vid, thanks for uploading as well, my all time favorite band. I don't know what I like more, the Cure, or telling people my favorite band is the Cure and watching their bewildered face because well, they're clueless.
:))
Ha! I completely understand.
You could say they're... cureless...
Love his look
Sooo handsome!!!
Never got them in the day now I can't hear enough super music!! 😎
Watching again and again and again and again and again and again… and AGAIN ❤ my entire life
Thank you for posting all of these interviews. Priceless.
Thank you :)
Lovedogs 🤣🤣🤣 I think Lovecats is a song that stands on itself, it's funny and singable and nothing else 😊❤️ his voice is something indescribable
Such a cutie!
ROBERT TIME
Robert Smith from 1984-1986 is my favourite era of him as he was so hot back then 😘😘😘😘😘😘😘
Great reason.
Godd young Robert Smith is a baaaabe
gosh, what a babe
coolest hair....ever
gentle
I fucking love his accent. Posh.
Paul Metzger he's from the south of england and anyone not completely growing up in rubbish there sounds like that
I know where he is from- Crawley. And his accent is upper middle class.
He sounds like Bowie to me or maybe Marc Bolan
HeWasSoBeautiful ....
Роберт. Всегда был очень серьезным. В своем искусстве. Как будто даже ревнивым
“the top” days
he just did the lovecats to flex
huh?
Wow! He looks like Tre Parker!
Professor Ditch Digger hrs in south park they love him
10:24 I'm so glad he changed his mind...
song at 30 sec- The Walk
imagine having achieved that much at 25??
He sounds like Ricky Gervais when he's talking in this interview.
Excuse me
Andy Anderson wrote to me only last year...I cant believe he is dead....God bless him...in my opinion the best cure drummer
Nice video !
Note the BASS player......Not Simon but Phil!
It's actually Phil Thornalley, Michael Dempsey left at the end of 1979.
37 years later and still the same black hair
❤
❤❤
is it hot in this comment section or is it just Robert Smith?! 🔥🔥🔥
Haha! Robert is extremely adorable in this video.
He speaks softly ... a bit like Marc Bolan
Little Marcy feld was a flash little sod........a good mate from sunny Stoke Newington........
All the women's comments are about Robert's looks.
slightly wrong there mate
Well… who wouldn’t with a face like that!! But I’m sure most if not all of the fangirls really do appreciate his amazing work aswell as the pretty face
he talks about Banshees... was he with Siouxie and the Banshees?
Yes, he first played with them in 1979 on the Join Hands tour (in which The Cure supported Siouxsie and the Banshees) after their drummer and guitarist had walked out, then later joined them as a proper member from late 1982 until April (I think) 1984.
decafcoffee73 yes!
decafcoffee73 and in the album with Steve the glove , blue sunshine. His voice is dreamy in perfect murder. Especially the end of the song.
He appears in “Dear Prudence” videoclip.
Real life Spike Spiegel
Did not realize he was involved with Siouxee and the Banshees
really ! What planet were you living on in the 80's ?
are you a rock music expert?-
Are you a rock music expert? Who was the keyboard player for the Faces? you got 40 seconds

He looks like an emo Ben Affleck
Alright Mescaline girl
This guy doesn't get it

the thing,as a fan I hated love cats.Palease.Loved the cats though.lol
Ha! getting too old. lol.
What is the name of the song at the end
Darude sandstorm
Piggy in the Mirror
Bob
What's the name of the first song?
It's 'The Walk'
He lowkey reminds me of Matty Healy
Matty stole a lot of his look from Rob
Hate lovecats. Love the cure
Well Robert .....You didnt stop now ..did you? To old at 25...jisus...:)
7:50 did he say “there’s a galaxy inside my head”?
He says '... it doesn't rest, it gallops around inside of my head.'
No, he said "..it gallups around inside my head."
So hot
That singer on The Glove sucked
05:18 Blue Sunshine was such a crappy album. I mean, fancy producing something so substandard after creating Pornography - a timeless classic
I never saw this in 1984. I wish they'd shown it when they showed the performance.
