This song ages with us, as does the entire album. It seems more relevant to me now than it did in the 80's. It takes me to an emotional place that has only increased in its importance over the years.
Age isn't doing his aesthetic too many favours (he didn't always look like Betelgeuse) but holy smokes, his voice and his guitar playing just keep getting better and better. Robert Smith is a living legend.
I first heard this song in '87...I was 18, having a tough time adjusting to being an adult, turned out I was clinical (expensive mental facilities are wonderful.) I've been well for years, but when I hear this song, I wax nostalgic of those days, as insane as they were. I've never used an illegal drug, but the feeling I get when I hear this song, as it pulses through my psychie, makes me wonder if it is the same feeling an addict gets when they first relapse.
i used to feel this song deep inside of me.. i'ts incredible how only a band can make me feel this way.. i think robert is really near my way to feel music
They are the most endeared and love bands in the world hands down !!! I love this band why, because they connect with every emotion of the soul musically, no other band compares !!! No matter what mood you are in or feeling, you can always run to their music to get your fix & cure !!! Robert Smith & The Cure is music genius !!!
Agreed so much with your text! The Cure has it all. Deeply sad, deep emotions, black but also colorfull, full of life, funny, cheerfull, very positive, full of love. For me The Cure is the beginning and the end. No other band has the whole of emotions, of feelings etc.
Best song ever from the Cure; this is a marvellous piece of art in matter of of design these tunes in such an emotional sphere. It's like walking in a forest of ages and moods
Robert Smith could have won the Nobel Prize for literature had he not become a singer/song writer. The man is a philosopher in his own right. I put him up with Camus and Sartre. There is alot more to this music than black hair and make-up. It's not about "goth", this album "Pornography" explores what it means to exist.
@pancakesmasher102 so true. The lyrics of this one and the hole fucking Pornography album are pure poetry. What a gifted men and what a classic record. Timeless beautiful, art at its highest form.
@AlmigthyIsDead Robert didn't use Gibsons perhaps until 87, but Porl did (the 335 is seen in 84 concerts). The VI was used in Faith, not sure in Pornography but probably not. I remember when asked about the Fender preference he said that he didn't like Gibsons because of their shape. Go figure, as now he seems to have abandoned the Fenders for good which made the new Cure sound quite strange, it's noticeable when he plays the old songs with the Fenders. The Schecters are pure crap.
I'm 47 , it's 2021 ..been listening to the Cure since I was 12....and I still listen to this so often... such an underplayed masterpiece
Simon Gallup must be one of the best base players in modern music history. His feeling for melodies, rhythm and effects is fucking amazing!

One of my favorite Cure songs ever... so sad and desperate filled with angst and rage...
more than 25 years listening this song again and again in my depressing Times...
But still alive...

Pornography will always be my favourite Cure album. And one of my all-time favourites.
God I love this song, I think it's one of The Cure's best.

@bionepelle Someone's already said that they think it's a phaser, but I think it's actually a flanger and a little bit of distortion.
