    Adrian, you’re the best guitar tutor on UA-cam. You cover such great songs.

    Early Cure had some really unique guitar parts. Robert Smith is underrated as a guitarist. Simple but very distinctive and unusual

    This song inspired me to pick up the guitar over 30 years ago. It was the first song I learned.

      Same, this was really the first Cure song i discovered on my own. I was instantly drawn in, crazy how tremendous the trilogy was in the early days.

    I remember the first time i ever heard this song,i was at a biker festival and i was half pissed,about 10 years ago.
    I just heard that opening guitar sound and i ran to the tent where the band were playing it,i was just mesmerised by it,and the band were absolutely fantastic at it too,the tent was all lit up by a green light and it was really late at night,it was just a fantastic atmosphere,loved the song ever since.

    Thank you, Sir, for an amazing tutorial of this Postpunk classic. I salute your good taste and courage for choosing this and other songs I LOVE!!! Your work on The Cure, Siouxie and the Banshees, Wire, The Fall, Cramps, etc, is a class act. Suscribed!

  • @prasadbidaye
    @prasadbidaye 2 роки тому +4

    This is just what I needed. There are so many covers and tutorials for this song, but this is the first one I've found that actually offers some explanation of the solo, the improvisation and the dissonance at the end - thank you!

    • @robpearson-wright9163

    I can still remember going into Doncaster Sth Yorks UK and buying the single after hearing it on John Peels radio show, I then saw the band at Sheffield Polytechnic shortly after, to be honest, they were crap but I did see them again years later at Sheffield city hall and they were amazing a really tight polished act.

    @Hotdogger808 4 роки тому

    Thankyou for clearing up the flange part in a forrest . Its been 25 years trying to work out how they did it.
    The riff i am talking off is the verse riff.
    Its what gives the song its intensity to me. A bassline not on a bass. I have seen them live but prefer them on vinyl.
    The verse riff phases in and out in the track a little adding further ambience to me.
    I must have heard it well over 5000 times and it never gets old.....like me.
    I was in my 20s when it was released.
    Thanks for a great video....props.
    The beginning of fascination st with Rob playing the intro has a similar ambience and depth.
