When fat bobs wig got torn off.. I had a flashback! Totally forgot about that part! I always said this was the most epic concert they ever did! I haven't seen it in years.. thanks for the proper touch up.. it looks great.. I was front row at the wish tour in Williamsburg V.a. When Robert was about to perform "Friday I'm in love" he said here's a stooped pop song! 😆
You could start almost every opinion with: "As a Metalhead...." and people would probably really take it into consideration, more critically than if you didn't mention it. 🤘🏻🎶🖤
I would have sold my soul to see this concert in the flesh. It's as close to perfection as anything I've ever seen and heard. Wonderful job on the remaster!
@@francescoriccioli4326 I remember Robert saying that when they play a concert with 24-28 songs - they really have practised something like 70+ songs, as they will often change set lists based on the location.They put a ton of effort into these shows.
i have it on vhs as a 50+ idiot 😅 made cassette copies off the audio way back then and played it everywhere. hope we get a dvd/blu-ray someday, but even if it doesn’t happen we still have this 😉

Cannot believe I have not watched it in a long long time. This is the classic lineup in my opinion which I really loved because I grew up with this one. These guys are in a class all by themselves and hearing this once again in their absolute prime is special! Man they are good and the filming was HQ!
I totally agree. Boris added another element to the band and it made them so much better. My favorite Cure era was when he was with the band. Hands down the best drummer The Cure ever had and it's not even close.
I completely agree with you unfortunately, we never had a physical release of this legendary concert I had to take a laserdisc version and I tried to do the best but nothing will ever be better than a 35mm version
@@diggydude5229 Yes 👍And although I'm not that much of a hip hop fan, I also find the "Beastie Boys 1999 Glasgow" to be one of the best concerts out there. HipHop meets Punkrock. Unfortunately I can't find it in good quality.
How brilliant and great for you. I couldn't afford tickets when they came to New Orleans this year. Great tickets were more than my monthly rent. But I saw them in 1987, so I am happy. They ROCKED!!
@The.Last.Guitar.Hero. Who cares?They are so many great songs from the start up until Disintegration.There are a couple from wish that are also great.
In 2001 I was traveling around France by car with a couple friends. We went out of our way to find "Orange" and this place. We finally found it ! We simply walked in off the street. Nobody was there. We all took pictures of ourselves on stage. As a kid I watched "In Orange" so many times !! Being there did not seem real... ❤
Were you really????? Oh my God!!! I would've gone absolutely nuts! I was 12 when I watched this and fell in love with Simon. I wanted to have his children.... at 12 years old. I was a dumb kid, I know. 🤣🤣🤪🤪 What memories!!
Moi j étais à celui d avant où après orange au arrière de frejus 😅 et le temps passe... mais un des meilleurs concert que j'ai vu et pourtant j en ai vu mais cure en 86 au top ! charlotte sometimes... 💔
I first saw the Cure in Sydney at the Horden Pavillion around 1984 and I will never forget it. Lucky enough to see them again in the 90’s…they are absolutely extraordinary live. THANK YOU for sharing this. I wish too it would be released in HD 💜
As someone who loved Punk and New Wave back in the 80's. I regret not giving The Cure more of a try. Many years later I have grown to enjoy their music. Thanks for posting this show.
I got to see them in concert about five years ago. They were phenomenal. I usually don't like live music, but they were great. I was amazed at how energetic Simon was; he stomped around the stage the whole thing.
The first time I seen them was 3 years before this in Glasgow barrowlands in 84...it was my first gig.... amazing I will never forget it...the set was outstanding and at this time a prity dam good lineup...I met them a few years later at back of Edinburgh playhouse...and still got the pics ✌️🖤😸
@@GutterHeartsTV I think maybe just from tv? He also liked Madness, Supergrass and The Stranglers (Golden Brown) was a particular fave of his I remember him telling me back in the day. 👍
wow, what an unforgettable experience, im so happy smiling at my screen reading that..I can’t imagine how amazing it must’ve been to be experience their peak years in real life..
@@ntz7358 ye I was so lucky, it was live on BBC at the time and I got a ticket for free that afternoon and still have it...That gig is actually on UA-cam. 🖤
Me to. My dad put this on the tv when I was a kid (VHS) and I remember really liking sinking. Now I’m 37 and still listen to this regularly. IMO this was their peek.
Ahhhh!!!! This brings me back to 1986 at 9 years old, riding my bike 10 miles to the only record store in town to buy this VHS tape. I left and I got it!!! I loved it so much then and I love it so much now!! I will always be a fan!!
@Cannon Baller2020 that is a nice story. I was in my late teens when I first watched this and was blown away. It inspired me so much that my brothers and I formed a band and covered A Forest, Boys don’t cry and killing an Arab. Not anywhere close to this but I have happy memories. I was hooked on The Cure and have been ever since. This gig also inspired me to get the same haircut as Smith had here and soon after I was in New York in a guitar shop and bought a black and white fender telecaster as well. All in all this VHS cost me a lotta cash lol
@@lukeoverthere1364 thank you so much!! Yeah, the VHS tape cost me a ton too, and I only had half of the money. My parents gave me the other $25 but loads of washing dishes, taking out garbage, cleaning my room, and other stuff, while my 3 brothers laughed at me, gave me the rest to get it. My 2nd oldest brother loved The Cure and asked me on numerous occasions to borrow it, and I smugly told him no way....or I made him clean my room, dirty socks and everything! 🤣🤣 That's awesome you started a band and did their song's. My friend's and I tried to start a band and I was going to be the bass player.....but sadly, I had and still have no instrument playing capabilities and was way better at sport's. They all got pissed at me for not learning in a month and stopped talking to me.....long story, but they were a-holes. That's a really cool story you told me and at least you tried and could play. The only instrument I ever played was the clarinet....and I sucked at that too!! 🤪🤣
Sorry, I'm stoned, and thought of something else. To think, this concert was almost 2 hours long, and these guys were in their early 30s. Now, in their 60s, they're playing 3+ hour long concerts!!
Being stoned listening to this music means you understand and appreciate the Goth sound which is Moody, Atmospheric and Otherwordly takes you to a previous time.
I remember in the late 90s, Lol played in 'Levinhurst' at a small venue in my hometown of Jacksonville, FL. I took many pictures of the show with my Sony Cybershot (floppy disk days), and Lol asked me to email him the photos. I was ever so happy about this, considering I had loved The Cure since I was merely a kid and learned quite a number of their songs on keys & guitar. He wound up using my live photos on the website for Levinhurst at that time, and it made my life gleeful for a moment. Thanks, Lol. You & your wife were sweethearts to me. (P.S. I've seen The Cure 5 times in total, with my favorite being at The Beacon Theatre in NYC where they played only their first 3 albums. MAGICAL.)
This is probably my favourite live video of all time... Absolute perfection. I've learnt so much from this- both as a performer and as a spectator. Sublime stuff.
My favourite all time group. Saw them in May 92 at the Cornwall Coliseum in St Austell. Mesmerised from the opening bars of Open to the End 18 songs.....followed by 2 encores and another 7 songs. What a night.
Boris Williams greatest drummer the Cure ever he was better than a Drum Machine his Patterns were outstanding for this band he had a feel that otherwordly perfect for the bands voice.

i just got into the Cure a year ago....and the best thing about finding a band with years and years of art is that there is sooo much material to sift through and enjoy , over and over , etc.. the worst is....well.... that a i missed a concert like this , but joy....= its recorded.
Really wonderful concert. The Cure makes me get to the substances of music, These songs make me happy, be synpathized, and experiance catharsis. Everything is perfect. Thank much for this vedio.
When music transported you to another time and place that was the 80s the bands Academy Award performance like a cat in heat this performance stands the test of time for us to admire forever.
Magical lineup. All contributions an absolutely unique sound. For all the production on their albums, they sound so great live. Saw them on the Prayer tour, then the Wish tour and this year on Songs of a Lost World. Love how generous they are with their fans.
Reading all these comments makes me so happy. Amazing how much The Cure has touched all our lives. I will be forever indebted to Robert for his creation.
I had no money as a kid back in Mexico....all I had was enough to get me a copy of Disintegration....that album was contagious and was the one that got me into The Cure, I was around 11 years....magic times and memories.....
Absolutely INCREDIBLE. Thanks so much for putting this here for us to enjoy. I was never lucky enough to get the VHS video and hope one day it will be on DVD. I could happily just watch this forever and never get bored. Simon mesmerises me, not going to lie!
My bff and I used to watch her copy of this on VHS over and over again, her mom would come into the living room to ask if we were watching it AGAIN! 😆 Such great memories. ❤
1986 war ich 14 Jahre alt und der grösste Cure Fan ever. Heute bin ich 51 aber wenn ich dieses Video sehe bin ich wieder 14. Habe sie letztes Jahr live in Köln gesehen. Das war so toll. Auch mit 64 ist Robert's Stimme einzigartig. So klar und kraftvoll. Werde ihn und The Cure immer lieben ❤❤❤
Bin 28 und Bands wie The Cure lassen mich davon träumen wie es wäre in den 80ern aufgewachsen zu sein. Schade dass es heute wenig vergleichbar gute Gruppen gibt!
I still can almost not listen to some Cure songs, in particular a Strange Day. It just transports me straight into the most painful time of my entire life. But absolutely brilliant that great music can do that.
Seeing this brings back so many memories. I waited in line all night to buy this on VHS when it released. I think i was 14/15 at the time. My best friend and I watched it until it wore out.
My Top 3 favorite live concerts....The Cure-In Orange (this one)....U2 (Under a Blood Red Sky)...and Depeche Mode (Music For the Masses 101)...I can see and listen to them over and over ...never get bored...
J'étais aux arènes de Frejus la veille de celui d'Orange. Même concert et même Robert inoubliables. Je suis toujours fan mais les chansons de ces années sont particulièrement toutes magnifiques !
Abso'fricken'lutely!!! I remember being 12 and saving up all of my chore money to buy this VHS tape. It was $60, which was a crap ton of money back then. My parents thought, "Who the hell are these dudes, and why does my daughter like them?" 🤣🤪 I saw them in concert at 13 and this past June for my 48th birthday. I don't want them to stop playing... EVER!! I do have a bone to pick with Mr. Smith, however. He needs to release the new CD!!! Sorry for the long message. My adult gummies are kicking in! 🤣🤣
I'm not a huge Cure fan but I absolutely love this concert. If I had known about it back then I'm sure I would have attended, it's not far from where I live. Thanks for the video!
@@alienlapdanceI never got your response until now. What did you think??? I thought it was beautiful, magical, and so much more. I swear if Robert doesn't bring the new album out soon, I'm going to start feeling muderous!! 🤣🤣🤪🤪
@@CBaller2020 it WAS beautiful!!!! even 3 months later it’s still unbelievable that I was in THE SAME ROOM as Robert and Simon and all the rest of them. I was in the veeeery top seat so not great quality vids/pics but definitely great quality time. i love them so much, and i do hope they come out with at least a new song by the end of the year💔💔 really wish I could go see them in south america but i don’t think I could get tickets again!! I’m glad you had a magical time too
Robert always said that he did not like the way the concert was filmed. He said that it was not them. It's interesting because for their public, it is them. He is wrong here.
Sooo grateful that somebody had the foresight to do this on film, when so much was videotaped at the time. Amazing performance, Thank you. You make a difference. ❤️

I use to rent the vhs of this concert at least once a month for like a year until the vcr broke. Thanks for this perfect quality upload.
I rented this at the local video store in 89 and never gave it back . the first of three tapes . I loaned it to a friend and he never gave it back 😂
Legendary concert. Cure were always generous to their fans too.. Playing 24 songs flawlessly is no mean feat. Fantastic band. x
Playing 24 songs...two times! The concert was "replayed" the day after the event.
Saw them in Amsterdam a week ago. They started at 08:15 PM and ended their show at 11:00 PM! Amazing show!

still are!! saw them in birmingham and rob literally sang till his voice went and then still continued!! good 3 hour of cure stuff

They are all legends but the impact of Boris Williams on this band can’t be understated. Perfect drummer for The Cure.
One of the best drummers in the history of Rock, period.
To drum for The Cure you have to be in shape!
he's massively underrated, the man was as tight as a drum machine
Cannot believe I have not watched it in a long long time. This is the classic lineup in my opinion which I really loved because I grew up with this one.

It was shot on 35mm film at the Théâtre antique d'Orange in the French countryside (Orange, Vaucluse), on 8, 9, and 10 August 1986.

NM my good man oh I found it!!
Just saw them live and they played most of these songs just as well 37 years later, a testament to a great band.
They’re also playing much longer sets now, and added so many classics after this was recorded. Timeless band.
or they haven't done anything good since 1991 which is the reality

their name . . .

This has to be the coolest looking venue on Earth... and of course the greatest band ever is performing...
The old Roman Theatre was perfect for the bands voice moody, Atmospheric and a pagan feel the old times.
In 2001 I was traveling around France by car with a couple friends. We went out of our way to find "Orange" and this place. We finally found it ! We simply walked in off the street. Nobody was there. We all took pictures of ourselves on stage. As a kid I watched "In Orange" so many times !! Being there did not seem real... ❤
That voice is so iconic as is the entire ensemble. Some bands are timeless and will be enjoyed and marveled at for generations. This is one!

One of the reasons like the cure, they sound better in live than studio . Maybe just me, love watching live stuff
When music transported you to another time and place that was the 80s the bands Academy Award performance like a cat in heat this performance stands the test of time for us to admire forever.
This is pure magic, pure joy, pure memories, this makes live worth living. My favorite band ever!❤️❤️❤️
❤
Magical lineup. All contributions an absolutely unique sound. For all the production on their albums, they sound so great live. Saw them on the Prayer tour, then the Wish tour and this year on Songs of a Lost World. Love how generous they are with their fans.
This is just one of the best concert films of all times. The band - legends.
Ive seen the cure about 20 times. Absolutely brilliant live the Prayer tour in Birmingham has to be one of my most memorable days ever!!
Incredible .. just incredible! Saw them in NYC in June 2023
Same voice !!❤❤❤
Reading all these comments makes me so happy. Amazing how much The Cure has touched all our lives. I will be forever indebted to Robert for his creation.
Man, this sequence is awesome:
0:37:52 - A Night Like This
0:42:33 - Push
0:47:02 - One Hundred Years
0:55:00 - A Forest
1:04:18 - Sinking
And Charlotte Sometimes followed by In-between Days ❤️
absolutely insane.
A strange day ???
@@rochefort82 Sublime chanson...
In an alternate world The Cure released In Orange on Blu Ray and 4K. Renting this VHS on Blockbuster back in the 90’s got me into The Cure.
It even came out on Laser Disc! I had a player but not this concert.
I still have the VHS! (stolen from my sister, LOL)
I had no money as a kid back in Mexico....all I had was enough to get me a copy of Disintegration....that album was contagious and was the one that got me into The Cure, I was around 11 years....magic times and memories.....
One of the best ever concerts by the greatest band in the world!!! The Cure forever!!!
Absolutely Epic...this concert is legendary. Great location, Robert with short hair, a great athmosphere and a perfect playlist! Amazing, timeless
Absolutely INCREDIBLE. Thanks so much for putting this here for us to enjoy. I was never lucky enough to get the VHS video and hope one day it will be on DVD. I could happily just watch this forever and never get bored. Simon mesmerises me, not going to lie!
Man, would love a true 4K release of this....I can only imagine the cool stuff The Cure must have in the archives after 40+ yrs of playing.
Looks incredible. Waiting for a HD release for decades !
Same
The definitive version of Sinking. They have never played it better since.
I was the right age, at 16 to have been there. If it weren't for the Atlantic ocean and being in high school. Long live The Cure. Long live the 80's.
Good lord they sound even better live. I wish I could have been at this show !!
One of the best gigs they ever did.
My god...he absolutely nails the vocals in 'Push'. so great. especially at 45:51. makes the hair on my neck tingle.
I agree 100%. I love him and that song so much 🖤 it was one of the best moments when I saw them live last year. I'll keep it in my heart forever.
Fave song off HOTD
Hands down the best concert video ever.
When i saw them in 87..they did 3 encores!! Good luck getting bands to do that now.😮
Saw them on the 4th of July in San Jose CA I think in like '91. So great.
I was there and it is unbelievable to be able to see it now, after such a long time!!!!!!!
My bff and I used to watch her copy of this on VHS over and over again, her mom would come into the living room to ask if we were watching it AGAIN! 😆 Such great memories. ❤
Este concierto fue sin duda un maravilloso momento en la historia de la humanidad
de que año es?
1987
I was going to ask for a link to the original file, and then I saw you provided in the description! Thank you so much for this! Masterful work!
Best band in the world....amazing live version FOREST....
1986 war ich 14 Jahre alt und der grösste Cure Fan ever. Heute bin ich 51 aber wenn ich dieses Video sehe bin ich wieder 14. Habe sie letztes Jahr live in Köln gesehen. Das war so toll. Auch mit 64 ist Robert's Stimme einzigartig. So klar und kraftvoll. Werde ihn und The Cure immer lieben ❤❤❤
Bin 28 und Bands wie The Cure lassen mich davon träumen wie es wäre in den 80ern aufgewachsen zu sein. Schade dass es heute wenig vergleichbar gute Gruppen gibt!
Been looking for this since 1991! Thanks for posting it!
OMG. I love the first minute when Robert's wig is tossed away. The slo-mo smile and joy in his face. Made me all warm inside. F**king awesome.
I still can almost not listen to some Cure songs, in particular a Strange Day. It just transports me straight into the most painful time of my entire life. But absolutely brilliant that great music can do that.
Sooooooooooooo CLEAR!!!!! thank you 🤗
One of the most influential bands of all time
My mate lent me the VHS video of this in around 1986 or 87. I was absolutely mesmerised and have loved Robert Smith ever since
My favorite live ever !
This 4K remastered is amazing, sound is so good with effect in a forest. I love it even more.
Thanks for the share 👏🤟
Bought this VHS day it was released, still got it. Had it converted to DVD, but this ...wow !
Many Thanks.
Here's (still) hoping for the Blu-ray !
This concert contents so much great live versions of their songs.. A nighnt like this is fire here!
Ce concert est incroyable d'une justesse incroyable et leur musique au top du top, du grand professionnalisme, quel talent OUF !
Best Cure LIVE EVER!
Had it on shitty VHS back in the day.
"A Forest" for the win!
Watched it in 4k here - thank you, sir!
A band is as good as its drummer. Hope Boris will come back one day even if for just one show.
My absolute favorite version of a Forest ever
I cry every time I listen to this masterpiece, if only I could live one day back, that's where I'd want to be.
Seeing this brings back so many memories. I waited in line all night to buy this on VHS when it released. I think i was 14/15 at the time. My best friend and I watched it until it wore out.
My favorite live concert of all time. Thank you for posting this awesome live video.
Thanks you
My Top 3 favorite live concerts....The Cure-In Orange (this one)....U2 (Under a Blood Red Sky)...and Depeche Mode (Music For the Masses 101)...I can see and listen to them over and over ...never get bored...
I'm extremely happy you have put this up...! Been trying to find it for years. And you've done a fantastic job upscaling the quality. Cheers...!
A Forest - A master at works 😊
Yes but 100 Years in front of it makes even sooooo much better
J'étais aux arènes de Frejus la veille de celui d'Orange. Même concert et même Robert inoubliables. Je suis toujours fan mais les chansons de ces années sont particulièrement toutes magnifiques !
Je n' ai pas pu assister à ce concert mais j ai fait Fréjus en 89 et Marseille en 87..
Lot of really good songs here. And the sound quality is great.
One of the best gigs ever performed
the best band I have ever seen. sound and performance top notch
The best The Cure concert ever!
Been watching since a kid with the vhs tape to youtube. Thanks for uploading. Absolutely magical event
Abso'fricken'lutely!!! I remember being 12 and saving up all of my chore money to buy this VHS tape. It was $60, which was a crap ton of money back then. My parents thought, "Who the hell are these dudes, and why does my daughter like them?" 🤣🤪
I saw them in concert at 13 and this past June for my 48th birthday. I don't want them to stop playing... EVER!! I do have a bone to pick with Mr. Smith, however. He needs to release the new CD!!!
Sorry for the long message. My adult gummies are kicking in! 🤣🤣
I'm not a huge Cure fan but I absolutely love this concert. If I had known about it back then I'm sure I would have attended, it's not far from where I live. Thanks for the video!
I know I've commented before but I had to shout out to my other Cure fans and scream, I'M SEEING THEM IN JUNE!!! AHHHHHHH!!! I CAN'T WAIT!!!
ME TOO!!!!!!!! i’m seeing them in atlanta and i’m SOOOOOOOO excited
@@alienlapdanceI never got your response until now. What did you think??? I thought it was beautiful, magical, and so much more. I swear if Robert doesn't bring the new album out soon, I'm going to start feeling muderous!! 🤣🤣🤪🤪
@@CBaller2020 it WAS beautiful!!!! even 3 months later it’s still unbelievable that I was in THE SAME ROOM as Robert and Simon and all the rest of them. I was in the veeeery top seat so not great quality vids/pics but definitely great quality time. i love them so much, and i do hope they come out with at least a new song by the end of the year💔💔
really wish I could go see them in south america but i don’t think I could get tickets again!! I’m glad you had a magical time too
Us too!we saw them in June of this year in Boston show!🥰♥️🖤 fantastic and memorable!
This is a such a classic, they keep promising this as a BluRay release, and it never happens. Such a shame. Thanks for the upload.
Robert always said that he did not like the way the concert was filmed. He said that it was not them. It's interesting because for their public, it is them. He is wrong here.
had it on vhs , now lost , must have watched it 5,000 times.. 🖤🖤 , we need it on dvd please !!!!
Listen to me....This version of "Piggy in the Mirror" is ACES!
A fresh image for a classic concert... Thank you very much for this great job!!
Sooo grateful that somebody had the foresight to do this on film, when so much was videotaped at the time. Amazing performance, Thank you. You make a difference. ❤️
concert légendaire, je l'ai en vhs et en dvd, trop bien cette restauration pour un groupe que je suis depuis 1983, j'ai tout y compris des pirates
OMFG this is fucking AMAZING!!! The remastering is actually better than I had anticipated I just wish I could own the Blu-ray ❤️❤️❤️ thank you xxx
Great concert!!! Also I saw them the first time live, yesterday!
