Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh yesss......... here it is. This is the version that got taken down for some stupid reason by youtube, and I've been trying to find it again for a few years now. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for uploading this!!! A million likes for you, Mr. uploader
Very similar to the version I was looking for - think it may have been the same gig but the video didn't have the audience overlayed. I think maybe that was taken down
@@jonthomas9708 dont wanna see those goofy dancers...they really didnt need an image, they may have evolved but Smith praising the Dinosaur Jr cover of Just Like Heaven showed he was rocker all along...they did plenty of parody covers, but that is one of the great covers, next to Husker Du's Eight Miles High. all Cure fans should check it out. classic version and video.
There's a beautiful, hi-quality version of the entire performance on the competitor streaming network "V him E Ohh" with the blue and white logo: "The Cure live paris 1979 (full version)"
the album version was recorded some 3 months later, but this version , the energy, the angst, the music, wow. I believe Hartley and Gallup were 19 here.
The dancing scenes are mixed-in from a promo video from October 1984 made for the Xclusiv night club in Batley, that was my local alternative / goth / punk club back then. Many of the regulars (Spider, Gordon, Pete, Azzy., Stag) are probably chicken dancing to The Cramps in the original footage 👍
The version of this 1979 without overlay used to be up along with a couple of other songs shot for tv Paris i think definitely peak Cure before Smiths hair went wild.
For me this is the best Cure ever. Not just this song, but this performance of it. The. Best. And the other version of this video, the one w/o the dancers superimposed over it, got “deleted” from my Music playlist. Thx for the upload!
I have an audio file of a cure performance from I think 1979 And is 53 minutes long. They play everything, even a second version of this song in it. I should figure out how to upload it.
Hmm I was thinking the 🤔 it sounds like they had the song down but quickly needed to put lyrics on it to complete it as a demo to see if it was going to go anywhere it was simply a concept until the masterpiece was completed to what it is now!
wow, didnt even know they played it in 79... this must be one of the earliest perfs of this song, it sounds like RS hasn't solidified the lyrics yet and is making stuff up as he goes along.
...so this film footage isn't from a '79 Cure concert then? (the crowd dancing , I mean) The crowd's hairstyles look more early '80s, I don't know if they would have had such elaborate hairdos in '79 quite yet.
Wow someone destroyed it by inserting a goofly overlay. Come on. There is a real non edited version off you tube. Anyone know the lyrics of this version?
Anyone saying this performance is the best is out of their fucking minds. The song got so much better, the lyrics solidified, and clearly you have never listened to, say, the versions from 1986-1992 - the ones they closed the tour with in 1992 were fucking epic. I mean I can understand saying that the Werchter version is one of the best, but this one is just punkier. That's all.
This version is one of the best indeed cuz it's so raw and energetic , aslo performed so flawlessly , but i think versions from 1981-1982 r better, check The Cure A forest 1982 studio davout version if u haven't seen , i think that one is better
People keep praising this version/performance as the best and, it seems, they keep defacing it with video editing software. I disagree. Sure, the music is energetic and punk, and it's great on those levels. However, the instruments sound slightly out of tune. In later performances Robert's guitar lead at the end would become quite epic. The video footage itself here isn't much to look at either really, which I think is why people keep trying to add their own clips to it, correct aspect ratio or not. And, I mean, aren't there better performances of "A Forest"? For example, here is the one at Werchter Festival in 1981 where they flipped off Robert Palmer and all of rock and roll.

here's a better quality version along with the other two songs from the tv appearance. th-cam.com/video/ZVlsfBU51So/w-d-xo.html
Same reason here
Same here, glad to see it.

It is indeed the best version of this song. Pure, raw, focused, fast, dynamic... just great!
This one version is one of the best. Just beautiful!

Gallup was 19 when the album version was recorded, he didn't turn 20 until June of 1980.
Best version ever. Nice n fast

That bass though.. Damn

Amazing Bass.
Best version beside the one shot without all the backdrop additives
Cool song
Exquisite even as teenagers! Robert looked a little like a young Tom Cruise then without the makeup and hair
Super genial
best version ever!!!
Thank you so much for posting this. It's a treasure.
May 2024 ❤
alright. no idea how you found this, but/and thank you for doing so.
Superb performance of this song... I like the people dancing in the background... I like their style...
I've been looking for this version for so long... Thank you
my favorite sound from the 80s.
And it's from 70s
Yes
For me this is the best Cure ever. Not just this song, but this performance of it. The. Best.
And the other version of this video, the one w/o the dancers superimposed over it, got “deleted” from my Music playlist. Thx for the upload!
Just one thing to know: The Cure 🖤🖤🖤 !
I wish they would release it.... I would like a copy
This is my favorite recording of this song. TH-cam keeps taking it down. Anyone have the lyrics?
I have an audio file of a cure performance from I think 1979 And is 53 minutes long. They play everything, even a second version of this song in it. I should figure out how to upload it.
please do!!! i'd love to hear it.
@@charlottemendigorin9560 he didn't figure it out yet. :(
Have you figured out how to upload it by now?
I think i know that audio, it's from Amsterdam right?
Hmm I was thinking the 🤔 it sounds like they had the song down but quickly needed to put lyrics on it to complete it as a demo to see if it was going to go anywhere it was simply a concept until the masterpiece was completed to what it is now!
Sweet sounds!!!!!
It should just be called "the punk rock version!" I love the cure!
Watch that again. DOITNAUGGGGGGHOW!
A great surprise for me when i have heard this version in 1987 or 1988 recorded live at Paris théâtre de l'empire 1979 !
This is the best version, amazing!! Thanks
Afterpunk versión avalanchaaaaaaaa😊del trio calaveraaaaaa
Очень кайфова,очень,супер!!!!!
Кирилл ты откуда?
@@dp178km с питера мужик
Definitely love this version, raw and unpolished original
awesomeness!
Klein Robert mit 16... schön es mal wieder zu sehen!
Criminal that the complete version is gone
wow, didnt even know they played it in 79... this must be one of the earliest perfs of this song, it sounds like RS hasn't solidified the lyrics yet and is making stuff up as he goes along.
Dopeness.
Afterpunk de altarrrrrrrrrr topppppppppppppp
Dat bass was set free mate.... his thick accent, sounds like German lol. The guitar at the end, heavy.
🙏🙏🙏
Гуд!!!
oh my Goth! Robert Smith looks like an infant! Damn he was cute!
Warum verschwindet diese Version hier (auf youtube) andauernd?
Ich mag diese am liebsten. :-)
YES! Merci pour cette excellente version pre mix!
🖤🖤🖤😍😍🖤🖤🖤
1980
Caramba procurei muito esse show. Não eh o original mas tá valendo. E até hoje não entendi pq a música está com outra letra. Ainda mais maravilhosa
Essa é a letra original, antes da versão do álbum
It’s back! Sort of....don’t like the dancing mixed into the video. Definitely the best version though.
...so this film footage isn't from a '79 Cure concert then? (the crowd dancing , I mean)
The crowd's hairstyles look more early '80s, I don't know if they would have had such elaborate hairdos in '79 quite yet.
I think it is the same version that they performed in 1981? The famous "Fuck Robert Palmer, Fuck Rock N Roll"
Donde esta el original completo????🙏🤘

alternate version
original
Robert Smith when he looked like Tom Cruise.
He looks more like Goose than Maverick. Seriously reminds me of a childhood friend named Ricky who reminds me of Anthony Edwards as Goose
Ben Affleck
I think Tom Cruise tried looking like Robert Smith.
молодые и как он поёт
