    I lost my husband months ago, and this is the only song that seems I can listen to without stopping. My pictures are all I have left of what cancer took. Our life in pictures. At least I have them...and this song. Thank you Robert, and also thank God for your wife of many many years. May you both be blessed always to close and loving. Mary

    Greatest song they’ve ever recorded. And they had plenty of hits but this one gets to me in a place no other song can.

    my main problem with this song is the length. too short.

    It moves me everytime I listen to this! Robert Smith is such an inspiring artist: a very talented, dedicated, humble and respectful man. It makes me admire him even more the fact he's a family man, dedicated to his only and greatest love, Mrs. Mary. I guess he loved her since he was a teen, I don't know, but I would like to make a bow to this gentleman!
    Older now, I see him being judge for still keeping the same style, the clothes, the hair, the make-up... I see him, sadly and unfairly, being treated like a clown, who just wishes to stand out. In fact, it takes guts to do what he does, be loyal to his artistic and personal identity. Sometimes I think it lacks sensitivity to understand a true artist's soul and he is one of the most genuine and passionate musicians i have ever seen.
    I would be very glad if someday I could be in a Cure's concert.

      What a lovely lovely comment. He is all that you say he is (I worked for him in the late 80s). This song is particularly moving, he lost his pictures of Mary in a house fire.......... They're playing in London in December.

    How come this words came out of a man's mind, this is so perfect, a complete state of mind, this is song means more than a song to me and I swear I just can't accept it was written by a human being. I just can't figure out lyrics like this standing out in an universe with such evil and decadence of mankind.

  • @davidlabelle361
    @davidlabelle361 6 років тому +42

    I love how he ditches out on the whole “verse, chorus” format. An underrated guitarist to be Goddamned sure. I’ve never understood why any one of the Big guitar magazines have never done a proper cover story on him. He plays all the parts himself on his home demos and assigns them in the studio. The Cure receive a decent amount of attention as a band, but Robert deserves much more attention as a guitarist.

I was 11 and as a kid wouldn't even known this existed at that time, yet listening to this in 2021 I'm taken back and can feel how epic it must have been. Btw, also great audio quality! -80's kid Orange County California

It was a awesome show one that will never be again! Special Memories!

    A tragedy in the music business these days, as these guys would of never had a single chance of making it in these moronic music days.
    Who ever took a chance on these guys in the 80's in the early days you deserve a big thanks for allowing us to at least have good memories of good music.
    Today the Cure would of been a big joke on the music business.
