People don't give Robert Smith enough credit for how remarkable his voice is. Listen closely. An amazing voice. And spectacular songwriting, of course.
Robert said in an interview I watched, that he didn't like playing this song, cause it brought back a lot of bad/tough memories. It's a powerful performance here by them though - glad he did it.
the song is about having sex with a prostitute and both people knowing in their heart there's no love and it's all fake, isn't it? That's what I read from a somewhat reliable source.
I can't imagine another "rock" band writing a song like this. It is so esoteric in its musical sensibilities and that raw emotion is out of this world. The reason a band like The Cure is so adored is due to their art that transcends mere entertainment. These are all the cryptic masterpieces one would return to time and time again.
Yes, Cure had a light held high, but they were all phased out on dope. I really love their work while they were (too?) high, but I get the impressioin they themself do not really appriciate this album in hindsight. (But the ponorgraphy album was GREAT)
C'est une de mes chansons préférées du groupe. Seven seconds, faith, et bien sûr le meilleur de tous pornography. Ces albums représentent l'état de la musique du début des années 80. L'après punk, esprit, et attitude sombre piur une bonne partie de la jeunesse de l'époque. Crise économique, drogues, alcool, pas d'avenir, etc...
First heard this on the Americans .I immediately recognized the Cure .This is an example of expert use of guitar in evoking deep and inescapable haunting emotions that are as tangible as, say the death of love. I am hard death metal to the core yet can't escape this man's mastery of his manipulation of one's soul and angst
@@daveshellorz9270I’m only 2 months younger than Simon so grew up with these guys. Have just ordered a new Disintegration cd finally, my cassette died years ago 😂
Drums and bass generates firmly and professional rhytm and guitar makes that sweet melancholy which is trademark of most their songs.. Smith's voice is cherry on top of cake.. I could listen these songs all day long..
Oh yes im a super gallup fan. As much as rob. Without him i dont think the cure would be here now so strong. Love the guy. Such a presence and killer sound n lines
This song sums up a life time of shortcomings, letdowns, disappointment, and despair. It's probably my favorite cure song ever. Type o negative is my favorite with cure a close 2nd.
The thing that makes The Cure so beautiful is that they could turn around and release a song like Six Different Ways or Just Like Heaven. It’s incredible how they can break your heart one minute and have you giggling the next.
I love Robert Smith 's voice, hé ils so powerful to give us deepest emotions , definitly a genius of music and poetry, so generous, so i sharp, so true
Can I just say how much I love The CURE “I chose an eternity of this ... like falling angels the world disappears, laughing into the fire 🔥 is it always like this ?”
I purchased the album as it got released and I love playing this on the Bass Guitar. I programmed a TR 606 with the simple drum line and (try) to sing the words to it. Siamese Twins is so despair heavy yet cleanses my soul when i`m feeling down.
Presque tout ce qui nous entoure est une conséquence du renoncement et du chagrin. Les écrits et images sur des murs fissurés et des lucarnes murales qui font mal aux yeux représentent une vérité que personne bientôt ne lira, ni ne regardera plus ! Nous sommes entourés aujourd'hui de marionnettes musiciennes condescendantes, d’une vacuité dont rien n’approche et aveuglées par tant de vaines et stériles croyances.
A very raw nightmare so painfully depicted with such angst...Robert loves Mary with all his heart this song he choked out each word like an exorcism of sorts...they are soulmates. ❤

I am always overwhelmed by the sadness of this guitar riff.
its is very emotional and deep. Sadness , you just pointed it out :-)
But its very likeable 🖤
The bass line is haunting too
It isn't sad. It is one of the most beautiful songs ever made
Live
So beautiful. Love this album
This song, this album, perfection.
Perfection of melancholy and despair. A hymn of obsession and lust. It fitted the mood of my early 20's. Still relate to this 40 years later, lol.
Maybe my fave Cure song. Every song on this album is my fave Cure song
I feel exactly the same way.

@@Aaron-zh4kj thats what I thought it was about .. the "red light" is a big give away
Jonathan Vogel I thought the red light was just to refer to the album cover of Pornography
I always thought it was about sex with someone when the relationship has gone wrong, going through the motions
Dave Parsons Hell, who nows...,ASK Robert...

@@MisterWillow It was great when it was released. The logical conclusion to Faith.
The Voice of Robert Smith still take me to another place!! 👍👍
Get on the Spectrum it gets worse and better been hurting and happy for decades
I would not now do that but I’d still happily spoon him and create a bucket list just to put that on a list
Ce morceau me fout des frissons depuis 30 ans, merci Robert.
Hauntingly beautiful! That voice! ❤️
the cure . literally the best metal band you will ever here with no distortion!
i fuckin love this band.
lmao metal band?
I can listen to this for an eternity.
This song really get under my skin and right in to my soul and heart. Lover it!

Same here. I had to look for the song after I watched the episode. Great series.
One of my favs.
Pornography,the top, disintegration, wish and bloodflowers, my fav albums by my fav band of all time!
And Faith
The "holy trilogy" (17 s/Faith/Pornograpghy) is often set as every one's fave and creates a continuity that only disintegration matched
@@daveshellorz9270I’m only 2 months younger than Simon so grew up with these guys. Have just ordered a new Disintegration cd finally, my cassette died years ago 😂
Probably The best Cure song .... full of emotions
I have just seen the best ever version of my favourite cure song. Thank you for uploading this incredible performance. This is why we love them.
I never see " the cure ", album mentioned..........why..,..is it a little too dark...........
This is so haunting and beautiful.
I have this DVD trilogy. I've had it for over 10 years and still watch the shit out of it. The bass guitar is my favorite part, has a real good tone.
You're rigth about the bass! Fucking Yeah!
The cure are bass and drum driven , love simons bass and he moves like a rock star :-0
Drums and bass generates firmly and professional rhytm and guitar makes that sweet melancholy which is trademark of most their songs.. Smith's voice is cherry on top of cake.. I could listen these songs all day long..
Me too
Oh yes im a super gallup fan. As much as rob. Without him i dont think the cure would be here now so strong. Love the guy. Such a presence and killer sound n lines
Perfect song, perfect live. So sad and so beautiful. ...
The Cure forever!
This song sums up a life time of shortcomings, letdowns, disappointment, and despair. It's probably my favorite cure song ever. Type o negative is my favorite with cure a close 2nd.
Def my fav song on the album
Well put

Dark Deep And A Cure for All ........One of the best songs Ever
Le meilleur album pour moi et la chanson qui transperce a chaque fois. Mon idole depuis mes 13 ans en 1986
I love you , Robert, since 1982❤❤❤❤
Would love to see them live.......hear TC since i was a kid........love them so so much.
Probably the best song of the band
+TARDYL TARDYL i do think so too
Yeah, it's probably the best cure's song. (but if I listen to Plainsong or Disintegration, i'll change my mind! lol )
@@HeyBulldog-Beatles-Tribute this and The figurehead.
@@anitaszolomicki1167 And the Cold.
Charlotte somestimes is the best and then three imagynary boys
Best depresser ever - love it
I love Robert Smith 's voice, hé ils so powerful to give us deepest emotions , definitly a genius of music and poetry, so generous, so i sharp, so true
Best band forever and ever on every New Day .thanks for the wondefull video
Toujours aussi sublime, un live magistral.
Vraiment superbe très bon souvenir des cures pour ma jeunesse je les écoutes toujours. Robert smith une voix reconnaissable et mythique 👍👍👍
"Leave me to die, you won' t remeber my voice", I'll always remember your voice Robert...
This band goes to my soul for the past 25 year ,and would never die
Can I just say how much I love The CURE
“I chose an eternity of this ... like falling angels the world disappears, laughing into the fire 🔥 is it always like this ?”
I saw this live, wonderful memories
amazing how they make a tambourine sound sinister
Brilliant! Robert Smith at his miserable best :-)
As of today, they have not played this song live since 2004 in Mexico City I believe.... it is time.
Unforgettable gigs with those creatures .... Everlasting !
The sound... this incredible and surround sound i fall in love
great, one of my favorite song of the cure, so deep
tears in my eyes like no song can do
Love this song! Great as always
i love this song
ROBERT SMITH IN BAD MOON. HAUNTING GUITAR. TYPICAL SOUND OF THE CURE. BEAUTIFUL
This is an exceptionally great recording. One of my favorite songs! Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
MASTER PIECE ..EVER... ;-) PLZ come back to New York City again ROBERT !
Epic, I love this forever The CURE, deep and Human!
The cure was the first live band I saw back in 1987. I was hooked on them ever since.
What a great first concert! They definitely know how to put on a phenomenal show !
Damn, I can't stop earing it...
3:21 to 4:02 is completely mesmerizing...
I purchased the album as it got released and I love playing this on the Bass Guitar. I programmed a TR 606 with the simple drum line and (try) to sing the words to it.
Siamese Twins is so despair heavy yet cleanses my soul when i`m feeling down.
Le meilleur titre du groupe, s'il faut vraiment faire un choix... Bouleversant !
I działa!
I would play the tambourine for them for free! ❤️
nobody today can write such powerfull music
including The Cure it seems, since Wild Mood Swings
Robert Smith, Robert Smith.
Pretty sure you’re just too close minded to find any powerful music from today
@Scottish Cheese I agree.
Seb Web10 Ian Curtis a poet genius.
Wow what a quality
Robert Smith is a living legend!
Idealnie w punkt.
ITS SO DEEEEEEEEEP!!!!!!!!! Best Sound from The Cure.
the remastered version is one of the greatest songs ever composed
eh?
Candidate for my favourite Cure song (so many!).
Tooooo many!
This is the best performance I've ever witnesses
Questa canzone stupefacente parlerà sempre al mio cuore
The sound captured my attention. ❤️
That bass, man ❤
Genial versión,gracias.
God, what I wouldn't give to see them live

I chose an eternity of this...................
That bass ❤
Had song azbi ♥️♥️♥️

Très bonne track-list, c'est à peu près la mienne. On doit être Siames twins ;-) Merci pour le partage . Bien à toi
Дай ему БОГ в этом году крепкого здоровья и отличного нового альбома
Ну ему БОГ точно ничего не даст)))))
Magnifique
Extraterrestres 👽 de la música. Únicos los mejores del mundo e inmortales 🖤2022...

Las 4 cuerdas del bajo de simon gallup son una maravilla de un sonido auténtico maestro gracias the cure
As goth as you can ever get !
Magnanimous, splendouring magnanimously, magnicienting!
Fantastic
Lovesong at its best.(Schlag nach bei Hesse)
love
Exquisite
Omg, meu coração bateu muito mais rapido ouvindo e assistindo isso.
Beautiful
Would be cool to see Smith and Steve Severin come together for a live version of this so many years later. And though unlikely -- Tollhurst on drums.
Deep in mind.. and for old cure.. simple and cure
Robert yuo really make my cry.......
Sono cresciuta con loro...e poi mi sono inabissato nell'oscura membrana della musica dark🖤
ONE from the ETERNAL MUSIC GROUPs = ONE of the _ ETERNAL MUSIC BANDs
Вершина депрессивного рока, которая стала символом лекарства от него, во веки веков
как интересно сказано)
Great!!!!👏👏👏
Pornography is my favourite album!!! Their ‘trilogy’ (Seventeen Seconds, Faith, and Pornography) is absolutely brilliant.
Too young to know, I nevertheless, choose an eternity of this. Should’ve went with Budweiser and Van Halen, cheerleaders.
