Robert Smith (the singer) wrote this for his wife. Despite appearances, he and the band are very down to earth, regular people, who are also legends and in the RNRHOF!
The Cure was a pioneer in the Goth Rock scene of the late 70s early 80s. By this time they had kinda turned into Alternative Rock, but they still had some Goth Rock elements. Especially vocally.
Oh wow so glad you are covering The Cure. Love you and love The Cure. My fav band. Robert Smith is an amazing song writer. He wrote this song for his wife for their wedding.
01:45 LOVE the "JAMAL" smushed face! 02:53 "Like a damn vampire, in a cave. I'm surprised he ain't upside down singing!" LMAO! Despite experiencing grief with mom's passing, you definitely made me laugh outlouid today Thank you, Jamal!
80s band- genres are goth rock, post punk, post new wave. I remember when punk was fading it created sub genres, new wave, goth rock and some bands swung towards thrash metal and speed metal
Oh man this brings back M.E.M.O.R.I.E.S! One of my favorites! From the 80’s They were new wave 😢 The 80’s were a strange time, man! lol Check out Siouxsie and the Banshees or Violent Femmes ❤
Alternative. That said, Robert Smith, (singer/guitar player), definitely shaped the Goth look. The pale skin, black eyeliner or eye makeup, sometimes black lipstick, black clothes, etc., was the 80's goth look. Anyone that dressed this way, you could bet they were a Cure fan. I'll watch Edward Scissorhands, and think, Johnny stole Robert's look! LOL
In the 80s they were just weird, lol; then they were college music, then Alternative became a thing and all of the emo/goth/whatever came after was pioneered by these guys. Fantastic music...
I first heard the song when watching the video. I knew what to expect from The Cure as visuals back then. But the song had that really cool baseline, I had to get it. Lol
So cool. Thanks for covering this song. If you could also check out true faith by new order it would be awesome. And more Avenged Sevenfold and Silverchair if you want. Thanks again I love all your content.
It’s funny but I’ve never gotten their music and yet when they play clips in movies,it sounds like an awesome tune… From someone who has chronic back pain and serious problems there- best and often tops oxy,is a hot water bottle- not really warm, hot hot ,out the kettle- this is one that I always recommend to everyone,family,friends and everyone else.try it pal 👍👌👌
Love your reviews and reactions for years now, actually - BUT if you're apprehensive about any subject matter. Let that concern go 🤗 Btw yeah Love Song is great ✅️
....Tell you what I know: The Cure was classified as a New Wave/Gothic Band/Post Punk. The had several hits and were considered outsiders to the general music genre. In the day, they were considered very Cool because of the fore-mentioned reasons and because their music was actually....Good!
The Cure is a good mood.

Back then we called it New Wave music.

I love The Cure!

They are in the rocknroll hall of fame
Genius musical prodigy! New wave.
Yes, the Cure rocks….. their new album just made No1 in the States…… great great band.
That whole album is perfect, and full of banger after banger
Oh man this brings back M.E.M.O.R.I.E.S! One of my favorites!
From the 80’s
They were new wave 😢
The 80’s were a strange time, man! lol
Check out Siouxsie and the Banshees or Violent Femmes ❤
Been watching for a few years, how is this the first time you found The Cure? Coulda sworn... glad you did!
Yep! My High School was wonderful!

Tim Burton framed Scissorhands after Robert.
@@dukey19941 Sandman and The Crow also took influences.

The Cure is the greatest rock band in my opinion. Their new album is so great too. It is blowing people away.
Alternative- love this song but “Pictures of you” is my favorite. They were my favorite band back in the 90’s. Saw them live at 15
Groovy!!!
The vid is so incredible
@@dukey19941 I think they knew how to give us the vulnerable things we always needed but not always told others about it.
@@TheIgisasYou owe to yourself to check out their new album. It's great.
@@1978pq oh I am!
I loved the cure back in the day.
Alternative sweetie lol. Their considered Alternative group. One of my favorites. This was hands down my favorite reaction ever.❤❤
Listen to their song Lullaby.
@@LiveCameraCrazinessGood stuff!!!
Robert Smith with his ode to his wife... how his love for her kept him young and complete. Without a doubt the King of New Wave Goth
YOU HAD ME ROLLING WITH YOR COMMENTS!! TO ME HE LOOKS LIKE EDWARD SCISSORHANDS! BUT SERIOUSLY THEY ARE AN AWESOME GROUP LOOKS ASIDE!
Robert was the inspiration for Tim Burton for Edward Scissorhands!
It was written as a wedding gift to his wife who he has been with since he was 16.
This is New Wave.
Alternative, new wave
I absolutely loved the bat comment…it was great!
So cool. Thanks for covering this song. If you could also check out true faith by new order it would be awesome. And more Avenged Sevenfold and Silverchair if you want. Thanks again I love all your content.
Their#NewAlbum just out! 45 years and they're Still doin it!
They're Alternative... Now we need backstory of this song!!! Hehe... Or do we??? Great reaction my friend!
It was called New Wave music.
Not goth, the cure is the cure they're one of a kind
❤ Jamel, I love your music reactions. How do you pick the songs to which to react?
The Cure “Plainsong” will blow ye damn mind!
Check out just like heaven and fascination street, and a letter to elise
LOVE THEM!!
Refer to South Park for the difference between goth and vamp. Episode The Ungroundable, s12e14
You should listen to Open, by Cure.
Didn’t know edward scissorhands sang.
💃🎶🎧👍👏👏❤
Emo! Ha! The Cure has been around since 1976. If anything, goths, 'vampires' and emos copied them. They were the OG.
@@g54b95 amen!
Damn this takes me back when I used to wear all black and 10 inch mohawk
It’s funny but I’ve never gotten their music and yet when they play clips in movies,it sounds like an awesome tune…

You need to react to their entire “Disintegration’ album!
Edward Sissor hands
Think mental patient look
They were trying to look so different and that was their hook
Look up " I dig you" the cure.
idk but i suppose the cave is referencing geologic time, "i will always..."
100 🔥
Good pick! Maybe you can do Celine dion Nothing broken but my heart reaction?
Suggest Alice Cooper Feed My Frankenstein
I want to suggest Alice in chains, nutshell.
@@megn1670 would? is better
