simon plays a 16th variation too using up to 3 strings at a time, that's way more impressive ;) the cure's work - especially for drums and bass - was always a mere stamina exercise... i guess that's why simon is still in such good shape while robert... well... :D
This song right here, lives and breathes, it is everything, it will steal your soul and swallow you whole, break your heart, move you to tears and tear you apart, it will love you and hate you, kick your ass and berate you. You will laugh and cry, you will bleed and die, you will lay on the ground and stare blindly at the sky, you will surrender and scream, it won't leave, it can't, you will never give it up, you will never let it go. -Amanda Corrin Westfall
if I was stuck on a island with only this song playing over I'd die a happy man. like most cure songs you get lost in the music and it takes you places. magical stuff 😚
You couldn't have done it and written any better than you already did. The(Y) Cure isn't just a band. They are a soul soothers and a joy to this world. Mind you... just 2 days ago they've made it here in Romania for the first time ever. And i kept my promise, i went to see them performing live. I am still there and here on YT, can't help it. I am lost in their music. May God bless them and all supporters and fans around the Globe!
4:00 Robert with some (alternative lyrics) and not skipping a beat! (Pushing deep) for the fear of sleep again (Taking it out like it's going home again) (Running around like he's all on his own again)
Boris Williams on drums... Simon Gallup on Bass.... Robert in his prime... the likes will probably not be seen again. Utter brilliance. "Oh, I miss the kiss of treachery, the shameless kiss of vanity, the eye the mouth, and the heart oblique..."
Omg this is the first time I’ve seen them play it in this style and tempo. It’s like a whole new song, Roberts vocals are so magical and intense. Just an absolute masterpiece.
you should check the live version that's on the Disintegration's Deluxe Edition, it's sounds like this, with the same tempo and style but I would say that it sounds even better, Robert's voice is incredibly good
@@misaholopainen9075 listening now! Have met Robert once and seen them live once at the barrier but unfortunately they didn’t play disintegration! Need to see it live!
I have listened to so many versions of this song and this is one of the best. That damn Boris was such a kick-ass drummer for the Cure. Listening and watching him behind a kit just makes you realize how dearly the Cure misses him. These were truly great times for the Cure. They sounded incredible live. I am so fortunate I got a chance to see them on the Wish tour.
The album "Disintegration, is to "ThE CuRe, What "Black Celebration is to "Depeche ModE... So grateful I caught the scene when it was fresh, and was able to see it then, and allow this brilliant music to still pour over me like cool rain, feeling fresh every time..
The whole concert was/is just awesome. Boris indeed is supreme. Love Pearl as well. Only saw them with that line up in 1992. It was my first Cure concert and I was 15 years old. I could not fully appreciate this line up.
As a young man, I stayed up until 1 am to watch this on eMptyV. I look back on this as a defining momet in my life, and only wish that I was born 13 years earlier so I could grow old WITH the Cure.
I love this song , such strong heartfelt emotions and beautiful lyrics from the great living legend Robert Smith ! I'm so happy I grew up with The Cure! I remember watching their music videos on MTV, when they actually played music on that channel! Love them, especially my man Robert!
hensly77 I have 1 ticket for Chicago for sale! Its the first night section 106(section right after floor. I jumped the gun and bought tickets for chicago show because i was scared they wouldn't come any closer . Anyways , I'm just wanting to get my cost back if possible ! Want to buy a ticket
this gloriously dark song, particularly the album version, sounds like a companion piece to “From the Edge of the Deep Green Sea” on their next album (“Wish”)
The raw emotion of this song and it’s powerful relationship torn lyrics makes it one of my all time favorites. Having driven a truck for 30 yrs, you could say I know a fair bit of music
Yo tengo el box set del Desintegration que son 3 discos y el concierto es tan idéntico al álbum que muy pocos grupos logran alcanzar............... saludos de Perú...
Their drummer now is Jason Cooper and he has been with the band since 1996. He is the drummer that has played the longest amount of time with the cure. He's not Boris Williams but he is very very good. He plays just fine and more importantly gets along well with everyone in the band.
I'm watching this on mute whilst watching the Cure perform this song right now as the headliners of Glastonbury, 29 years later. And the are literally no different apart from the effects of aging... They are simply absolute timeless masters of their craft.
The best concert of the cure ever! Pictures of You, Fascination Street, Just like Heaven, in betwen Days, a forest and desintegration are superb versions!
Yeah, I miss the kiss of treachery The shameless kiss of vanity The soft and the black and the velvety Up tight against the side of me And mouth and eyes and heart all bleed And run in thickening streams of greed As bit by bit, it starts the need To just let go, my party piece Yeah, I miss the kiss of treachery The shameless kiss before I feed The stench of a love for younger meat And the sound it makes when it cuts in deep The holding up on bended knees The addiction of duplicities As bit by bit, it starts the need To just let go, my party piece But I never said I would stay to the end I leave you with babies and hoping for secrecy Screaming like this in the hope of sincerity Scream with me over and over and over I leave you with photographs, pictures of trickery Stains on the carpet and stains on the scenery Songs about happiness murmured in dreams And we both of us knew how the ending would be So it's all come back round to breaking apart again Breaking apart like I'm made up of glass again Making it up behind my back again Making it afraid for the fear of sleep again Pushed in deep to bare bone again Take him outside like he's all on his own again Round and round and round, it's coming apart again Over and over and over Now that I know that I'm breaking to pieces I'll pull out my heart and I'll feed it to anyone Crying for comfort, crocodiles cry For the love of the crowd and the three cheers from everyone Dropping through sky, through the glass of the roof Through the roof of your mouth, through the mouth of your eye Through the eye of the needle, it's easier for me To get closer to heaven than ever feel whole again I never said I would stay to the end I'd leave you with babies and hoping for secrecy Screaming like this in the hole of sincerity Scream with me over and over and over I leave you with photographs, pictures of trickery And stains on the carpet and stains on the memory Songs about happiness murmured in dreams And we both of us knew how the end always is How the end always is How the end always is How the end always is How the end always is How the end always is Always is Always is Always is Always is Always Always Always Always Always Always is Lyrics by The Cure
this version, of all versions, even the album, all other live performances; its the greatest one. the most emotion shown, everyone in their prime, everyone performing with their heart.
Oh i miss the kiss of treachery the shameless Kiss of vanity the soft and the black and the Velvety up tight against the side of me and Mouth and eyes and heart all bleed and run in Thickening streams of greed as bit by bit it Starts the need to just let go my party piece Oh i miss the kiss of treachery the aching kiss Before i feed the stench of a love for a younger Meat and the sound that it makes when it cuts In deep the holding up on bended knees the Addiction of duplicities as bit by bit it starts The need to just let go my party piece But i never said i would stay to the end so i Leave you with babies and hoping for frequency Screaming like this in the hope of the secrecy Screaming me over and over and over i leave You with photographs pictures of trickery Stains on the carpet and stains on the scenery Songs about happiness murmured in dreams When we both us knew how the ending would Be... So it's all come back round to breaking apart Again breaking apart like i'm made up of glass Again making it up behind my back again Holding my breath for the fear of sleep again Pushing deep for the fear of alero again Talking it out like it's going home again Running araund like he's all on his own again And round and it's coming apart again over and Over and over Now that i know that i'm breaking to pieces i'll Pull out my heart and i'll feed it to anyone Crying for sympathy crocodile cry for the love Of the crowd and the three cheers from Everyone dropping through sky through the Glass of the roof through the roof of your mouth Through the mouth of your eye through the eye Of the needle it's easier for me to get closer to Heaven than ever feel whole again I never said i would stay to the end i knew i Would leave you with babies and everything Screaming like this in the hole of sincerity Screaming me over and over and over i leave You with photographs pictures of trickery Stains on the carpet and stains on the memory Songs about Happiness murmured in dreams when we both Of us knew how the end always is...
The Cure is one of the few bands that can touch my heart and make me feel goosebumps every single time , this version is flawless. they're like my therapists!
I play along to the album version on my drums and it's like a workout everytime. Very simple beat but the precision in which it's played requires unbreakable stamina and rhythm. I haven't tried to play it at this tempo yet--I might burn 1000 calories doing so. Haha.
I love The CURE even if they don't know every single fan. But I know bringing me happiness gives them a cure. Love every piece of art they can throw at the world.
Hands down most creative and musical genius ever . Im 50 and loved them the moment i heard them . 2nd grade on 120 minites mtv lol but that was when it was music not reality
Boris on that nitro boost. Shaved nearly 2 minutes off the album version 😂
😉
Great commet
Brilliant!
Why is Jason rarely mentioned?
You know Simon was like dude your killing me lol
Damn, Boris Williams is so fast on those 16th notes on that hi-hat. The fact that he could keep that beat for over 7 minutes is incredible.
I am learning how to play this masterpiece, and i guess is gonna take a long long while.
simon plays a 16th variation too using up to 3 strings at a time, that's way more impressive ;) the cure's work - especially for drums and bass - was always a mere stamina exercise... i guess that's why simon is still in such good shape while robert... well... :D
Jason could NEVER play it this good.
Right up there with joy divisions transmission
cocaine was different back then
Best cure song ever ever
Oh, hell yes!
It is and has been my go to favorite song since I first heard the Cure in 1990.
No... Best song ever :D
There are a lot of "best cure song ever" out there
At this rhythm one in the top of their best yes

Yes!!!!
Makes me wanna kill myself
Presuming this particular song is 7 mins long the hi hat was hit 6,720 in this video absolute madness
I love the additional riff the bass player adds to this song in addition to the main bass line. Gives it an inpatient urge - sounds amazing.
Hit that right on the nail
I agree
4:00 Robert with some (alternative lyrics) and not skipping a beat!
(Pushing deep) for the fear of sleep again
(Taking it out like it's going home again)
(Running around like he's all on his own again)
their hair looks so cool behind the lights
Boris Williams on drums... Simon Gallup on Bass.... Robert in his prime... the likes will probably not be seen again. Utter brilliance.
"Oh, I miss the kiss of treachery, the shameless kiss of vanity, the eye the mouth, and the heart oblique..."
And the heart all bleed*
The soft and the black and the velvety*
Omg this is the first time I’ve seen them play it in this style and tempo. It’s like a whole new song, Roberts vocals are so magical and intense. Just an absolute masterpiece.
I agarre, other versions sound good too, but I love how desperate and frantic he sounds on this one
you should check the live version that's on the Disintegration's Deluxe Edition, it's sounds like this, with the same tempo and style but I would say that it sounds even better, Robert's voice is incredibly good
@@misaholopainen9075 listening now! Have met Robert once and seen them live once at the barrier but unfortunately they didn’t play disintegration! Need to see it live!
@@AbsoluteAudits lucky you! Hope The Cure announces a new tour soon! I'm wish ing to see Robert live for the first time 🫶
this is beyond amazing. the fast tempo does make it feel more intense
This is simply the greatest song ive ever heard
Boris rocks! This is the way it's supposed to be played!
i wish i could be in a band like this

THIS IS THE DEFINITIVE VERSION IMHO :) you are so lucky to have seen them on their greatest tour
Wholeheartedly agree!
My first Cure show was in 92, Wish Tour.
Adelaide South Australia 1992
@@jkrenz77 Mine, too.
Song is so powerful I can listen to this every day
i do ;)
Bloody perfect! Boris is a BEAST on those drums, and Robert is in his prime!
Can't believe this album was released in 1989..frigging unbelievable..still can't get my head around the creative skiill behind it..timeless
The CURE is still one of the greatest band ever ! 2022.
Never liked the fast version at first but it really grows on you. Boris is an amazing drummer!
i agree, Love all versions of this song!
The album "Disintegration, is to "ThE CuRe, What "Black Celebration is to "Depeche ModE... So grateful I caught the scene when it was fresh, and was able to see it then, and allow this brilliant music to still pour over me like cool rain, feeling fresh every time..
The Cure, - лучшая группа всех времён и народов.
I keep watching this...love the tempo/ aggressiveness to it
love the speed of this version ! perfect
BEST GOTH OR COLD WAVE BAND EVER AND JUST LISTEN TO BORIS WILLIAMS WHAT A DRUMMER HE WAS A CLASS ACT. A BAND IN CREATIVE OVERDRIVE HERE.
LETS NOT FORGET POST PUNK
So many feels were caught that night.
What?
+Mindy Caruso Feelings. Many feelings were caught that night.
Anthony Vasquez ok I got it now
+Mindy C
you were thinking a cure creeper lol
best lyrics of all time
this right here might just be the best versio of disintegration i have ever seen. fast. the way it is supposed to be played.
How can you dislike this song ?
THE FAST TEMPO LEADS TO ANOTHER DIMENSION, BIBLICAL
This incredible song has to be played at this tempo, like the "Entreat" version. So powerful, hypnotizing !!!
Most incredible Cure song, JMO
An entire life in one song.
Brutally beautiful!
The whole concert was/is just awesome. Boris indeed is supreme. Love Pearl as well. Only saw them with that line up in 1992. It was my first Cure concert and I was 15 years old. I could not fully appreciate this line up.
So dynamic, so aggressive, so heartbreaking, but still so exhilarating
eargasm!! this is my fav incarnation of the cure
As a young man, I stayed up until 1 am to watch this on eMptyV.
I look back on this as a defining momet in my life, and only wish that I was born 13 years earlier so I could grow old WITH the Cure.
Robert smiths vocals just does something to me lol it whisks me away man is pure magic.
No comparison band...just so unique. They have nothing like them
I love this song , such strong heartfelt emotions and beautiful lyrics from the great living legend Robert Smith ! I'm so happy I grew up with The Cure! I remember watching their music videos on MTV, when they actually played music on that channel! Love them, especially my man Robert!
I like this but the studio is way better then live .Hopefully going to see them in Chicago

Yo tengo el box set del Desintegration que son 3 discos y el concierto es tan idéntico al álbum que muy pocos grupos logran alcanzar............... saludos de Perú...
this album never fails sending the shivers to my ghastly heart.
A whole different song. My hand cramps just HEARING that bass line. 7 minutes of doing that is crazyyyy!
Disintegration and A Forrest, best of The Cure.
Agree agree
My favorite song from them.
Hope one day boris will come back and play a reunion for just that tour. The drummer now is pretty good aswell but boris will always be my fav
Their drummer now is Jason Cooper and he has been with the band since 1996. He is the drummer that has played the longest amount of time with the cure. He's not Boris Williams but he is very very good. He plays just fine and more importantly gets along well with everyone in the band.
I find his style boring and I hate the way he plays certain songs like A Strange Day and Disintegration. But he's a nice bloke.
@@JubeProductions Cooper lacks the punch, he's too soft on the drums and I dont think it fits a band that used drum machines a lot
I'm watching this on mute whilst watching the Cure perform this song right now as the headliners of Glastonbury, 29 years later. And the are literally no different apart from the effects of aging... They are simply absolute timeless masters of their craft.
The best concert of the cure ever! Pictures of You, Fascination Street, Just like Heaven, in betwen Days, a forest and desintegration are superb versions!
I’m so happy this version exists. Disintegration is already amazing, but this version is just mind blowing
Yeah, I miss the kiss of treachery
The shameless kiss of vanity
The soft and the black and the velvety
Up tight against the side of me
And mouth and eyes and heart all bleed
And run in thickening streams of greed
As bit by bit, it starts the need
To just let go, my party piece
Yeah, I miss the kiss of treachery
The shameless kiss before I feed
The stench of a love for younger meat
And the sound it makes when it cuts in deep
The holding up on bended knees
The addiction of duplicities
As bit by bit, it starts the need
To just let go, my party piece
But I never said I would stay to the end
I leave you with babies and hoping for secrecy
Screaming like this in the hope of sincerity
Scream with me over and over and over
I leave you with photographs, pictures of trickery
Stains on the carpet and stains on the scenery
Songs about happiness murmured in dreams
And we both of us knew how the ending would be
So it's all come back round to breaking apart again
Breaking apart like I'm made up of glass again
Making it up behind my back again
Making it afraid for the fear of sleep again
Pushed in deep to bare bone again
Take him outside like he's all on his own again
Round and round and round, it's coming apart again
Over and over and over
Now that I know that I'm breaking to pieces
I'll pull out my heart and I'll feed it to anyone
Crying for comfort, crocodiles cry
For the love of the crowd and the three cheers from everyone
Dropping through sky, through the glass of the roof
Through the roof of your mouth, through the mouth of your eye
Through the eye of the needle, it's easier for me
To get closer to heaven than ever feel whole again
I never said I would stay to the end
I'd leave you with babies and hoping for secrecy
Screaming like this in the hole of sincerity
Scream with me over and over and over
I leave you with photographs, pictures of trickery
And stains on the carpet and stains on the memory
Songs about happiness murmured in dreams
And we both of us knew how the end always is
How the end always is
How the end always is
How the end always is
How the end always is
How the end always is
Always is
Always is
Always is
Always is
Always
Always
Always
Always
Always
Always is
Lyrics by The Cure
this version, of all versions, even the album, all other live performances; its the greatest one. the most emotion shown, everyone in their prime, everyone performing with their heart.
No they are fuckn incredible they can play 3 hours straight nonstop is mind blowing
My favorite all time song :)
So perfect ❤❤❤❤
At times I miss the early 90-s very much! Cheers - and all the best from a 56 year young (!) man in Sweden!
Best album...ever...one of the best songs ...EVER
imho top1 disintegration live version.
Oh i miss the kiss of treachery the shameless
Kiss of vanity the soft and the black and the
Velvety up tight against the side of me and
Mouth and eyes and heart all bleed and run in
Thickening streams of greed as bit by bit it
Starts the need to just let go my party piece
Oh i miss the kiss of treachery the aching kiss
Before i feed the stench of a love for a younger
Meat and the sound that it makes when it cuts
In deep the holding up on bended knees the
Addiction of duplicities as bit by bit it starts
The need to just let go my party piece
But i never said i would stay to the end so i
Leave you with babies and hoping for frequency
Screaming like this in the hope of the secrecy
Screaming me over and over and over i leave
You with photographs pictures of trickery
Stains on the carpet and stains on the scenery
Songs about happiness murmured in dreams
When we both us knew how the ending would
Be...
So it's all come back round to breaking apart
Again breaking apart like i'm made up of glass
Again making it up behind my back again
Holding my breath for the fear of sleep again
Pushing deep for the fear of alero again
Talking it out like it's going home again
Running araund like he's all on his own again
And round and it's coming apart again over and
Over and over
Now that i know that i'm breaking to pieces i'll
Pull out my heart and i'll feed it to anyone
Crying for sympathy crocodile cry for the love
Of the crowd and the three cheers from
Everyone dropping through sky through the
Glass of the roof through the roof of your mouth
Through the mouth of your eye through the eye
Of the needle it's easier for me to get closer to
Heaven than ever feel whole again
I never said i would stay to the end i knew i
Would leave you with babies and everything
Screaming like this in the hole of sincerity
Screaming me over and over and over i leave
You with photographs pictures of trickery
Stains on the carpet and stains on the memory
Songs about
Happiness murmured in dreams when we both
Of us knew how the end always is...
Doesn't this song make you all want to play air bass to Simon Gallup's melodic yet so violent riff?
This is just incredible
BORIS
Saw this concert live in Dallas in 1990. Still top three concerts of all time for me.
Thank fore a perfekt album, disintigrasjon. hi from Oslo in Norway
The Cure is one of the few bands that can touch my heart and make me feel goosebumps every single time , this version is flawless.
they're like my therapists!
One word! “I LOVE YOU THE CURE” 😜♥️
Praise The Master!
This version is bonkers!
Now, you guys understand why I've been playing "Disintegration" since August of this year, "over and over and over again...."
Crowd got their moneys worth on this performance alone! Wow!
I think this was in Leipzig. Can you imagine, 1 year only after the end of GDR? What a shock it should have been!
i cant stop watching this
Very fast this version .Five years more late tempo would change not so fast.But this song is perfect fast or slow.
Wow ! 28 years of this great song
I play along to the album version on my drums and it's like a workout everytime. Very simple beat but the precision in which it's played requires unbreakable stamina and rhythm. I haven't tried to play it at this tempo yet--I might burn 1000 calories doing so. Haha.
A Brilliant Haunting Masterpiece. Love the faster live version
Txs for always be there, txs for inspired my life
, txs for the poems, txs for the music...
이노랜 들을수록좋다 내인생곡
Epic. Cure. I much appreciate their talents
Fantastic!!
The keyboards at 4:17...nothing short of orgasmic. This whole song is. The Cure is.
Music for any type of mood. Brilliant!
Absolutely brilliant. Can’t stop watching this ❤️
I love The CURE even if they don't know every single fan. But I know bringing me happiness gives them a cure. Love every piece of art they can throw at the world.
This song gets me every time! MASTERPIECE.
Pure sound of existential dread..
Robert,, you are a God among men.. nuff said!
really big and powerful thanks
Que música
Super fast, Entreat version. Thank you so much for this.
to me the cure is: smith, gallup, and tolhurst. best albums: three imaginary boys, seventeen seconds, faith, pornography, and disintegration. :)
LUSH! Thanks for posting x
Hands down most creative and musical genius ever . Im 50 and loved them the moment i heard them . 2nd grade on 120 minites mtv lol but that was when it was music not reality
This song described me to a T back when it came out. I identified so much on this song with the way my life was. It is amazing.
Great footage!!! Never seen before...
Love it 😍 🏆♥️
I love this one!! Disintegration is the best!! My favorite by far. Ha,1990 the year I was born! lol Awesome. XD
Love them
