Hey everybody I would just like to ask have any of you seen the both of Robert and the other fella playing the bass at the start of this song watch closely at Robert is a mad cheeky grin like they love us yeah we do
How can the Cure be so special? This song is amazing and has the power to make me cry everytime I listen to it. It reminds me of my past. This song is simply part of me.
for me, smith, gallup, tolhurst, williams, thompson, and o'donnell. it just has a fuller sound. as long as the cure has 2 guitarists, a keyboardist, a drummer, and simon, i'm cool with that line-up.
The whole "Wish" album was so great, and still is, in so many ways....I was 25 when it came out, and the music and lyrics in it, marked and represented the very beginning of my maturity, and yet the apex of my spiritual freedom, which I still retain at 41. To me it also represented the point where my friends realized I wasn't stuck in a heavy metal cage like they were, but I was (still am) a combination of different styles of music, different, more intimate feelings, sad melancholy poetry....
I was 14 years old and unwillingly cast upon that weird age where I thought the things we did when we were young and the pain of youth slipping away was more than my heart could take. I’ll never feel as intent as I did when I was young. To what once was and will never be again
It's a bass guitar - when you hear that guitar tone on a Cure record, it's a Bass VI. Robert uses it on a lot of songs because it just sounds so beautiful.
amo demasiado a esta canción... The Cure, Robert Smith logran expresar todo lo que siento.. todo lo que guarda mi alma.. y esta canción es muy maravillosa.. siempre he deseado cosas imposibles y esta canción lo dice todo.. amo a este grupo y ojala nunca dejaran de hacer musica porque ellos son parte de mi vida, de mi día, de mi todo.. de verdad los amo!! y los llevo siempre en mi alma!! The Cure!!!!!
"To Wish Impossible Things" remember how it used to be when the sun would fill up the sky remember how we used to feel those days would never end those days would never end remember how it used to be when the stars would fill the sky remember how we used to dream those nights would never end those nights would never end it was the sweetness of your skin it was the hope of all we might have been that fills me with the hope to wish impossible things but now the sun shines cold and all the sky is grey the stars are dimmed by clouds and tears and all i wish is gone away all i wish is gone away all i wish is gone away
Words can only diminish the implications here for the human experience, such regret, such nostalgia, such trauma, and such beauty. For surely if we could have everything we wanted, if we were gods and not mortal, then we would not be beautiful, we are beautifully unhappy, exquisitely unfulfilled, we beautifully quest and question, how boring and unattractive the life of the gods-----may we always yearn and always feel this beautiful pain,
It was the sweetness of your skin, it was the hope of all we might have been that filled me with a hope to wish impossible things.... amazing and beautiful no one will ever ever take the cures place
One of my all time favorite Cure songs. It gets me every time. Wish is a SUPERB album, I wore it out. The incredible talent of Robert Smith & The Cure is mind blowing. My favorite band EVER!
Summer of 92, Wendy and me were there at the Palace in Auburn Hills MI... 13th row, now it's 2020 and it hits me as if I were there right now... Miss you Wendy!
How can a song be so sad, yet so incredibly uplifting altogether?? This reflects so well what I was going through when this album came out, and every time I listen to this album, it speaks about me, about who I was, how I lived, how I thought of things, how I matured, who my friends were, how young and free we were....how the natural development of life changed us.... I am so blessed, to be among those who get Robert Smith's poetry! :-)
Summer 2020 and this still sounds better than new music today. The cure in 1992 were fucking fantastic and on a level well above so many of their 80s peers
i have spent days watching live perfomances of the songs of my youth and beyond. Thank you Robert Smith for demanding more from your band. Your lyrics are a mystery yet the musicianship still stands and sends shockwaves.
They should release this on DVD, like now! Seriously, the Cure can make me dance, rock out, and then have a song like this which is so touching and beautiful.
This is from the 1992 wish tour..and I know because this was one of my favorite songs of that tour and I'll never forget that sunset they played in the background for this song..and I met someone here that changed my life..and I still love her with all of my heart,KS...thanks for posting this :)
6 avril 2022. I love the haunting sound of The CURE and the deep lyrics of the amazing artist Robert Smith ! I was a true fan since I was a teenager. Friendly from France. All my respects for you great man.
I see you Robert. Your music is one of a kind and like no other in the world. Endearingly profound, captures those deep thoughts that we so often cannot find the words for.
@ModaFoka barking? sorry, who is the one "barking"? You!....ya dickwaffle:) One could say the same about Chain of Flowers....lyrics by SG...do all of us Cure fans a square before you decide to open your piehole...dont! :)
One more year almoast gone. I start listen the cure since i was 15 years old Im 41 now and i will never stop listening my favorite band the cure 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
To all of you out there, who get Robert Smith to the same depth as I do, every time you listen to this song, do like me: turn the volume up, free your mind from problems and negativity, close your eyes, start dreaming, remember those days, who we might have been, who we were, wish to go back to that time....but, all in all, is it really to wish impossible things? All I wish, is gone away....
Yes! The Cranes and Dinosaur Jr. opened up for the Cure. I saw them for the first time at the Rose Bowl on 6/27/92. It was my first concert and 26 years later the Cure is still my favorite band.
remember how it used to be when the stars would fill the sky those nights would never end it was the sweetness of your skin it was the hope of all we might have been that fills me with the hope to wish impossible things .. but now the sun shines cold and all the sky is grey the stars are dimmed by clouds and tears and all i wish is gone away..
I'm a HUGE Cure Fan! I love the Cure and every song of theirs I heard. I dont have any cds of theirs...And today was the first time I heard this song of theirs! WHAT HAVE I BEEN MISSING?! AGH! BEAUTIFUL!
so much left on the table for this song. Mixed up never had a part 2 for slower songs. It'll never happen but watching the band smile during this set tells me there is more.
Some years have passed and I'm still here, totally mesmerized by the beauty of this song. It almost hurts.
Hurts so much
Doppelicious understand this, completely
It’s possibly one of their most beautiful songs 💕
Me too ...but It doesn't hurt ...
It makes me ...Calm...

I agree
Your words is mine, good times in Brazil
I wholeheartedly agree 💕 💔
Do to events that happened to them in Childhood. They will someday see or feel familiar emotionals again.
because they ar the best
BORIS WILLIAMS = The best Cure drummer ever! and one of the most influential 80s - 90s drummer alive!
BORIS: Return to The Cure!!!
IMHO ... The best line-up ever ... Bamonte, Gallup, Smith, Thompson, Williams
+Marzio Isaya I think the best line-up ever is: Tolhurst, Williams, Thompson, Gallup, Smith
The best line-up. Smith, gallup, tolhurst 😉💪
for me, smith, gallup, tolhurst, williams, thompson, and o'donnell. it just has a fuller sound. as long as the cure has 2 guitarists, a keyboardist, a drummer, and simon, i'm cool with that line-up.
@Allow me I completely agree. Don't get me wrong, I love Jason, but no one replaces Boris.
@@thevoid99 my fave line up as well
Still wishing impossible things...
me too.
me too
Still wishing...
Me too brother, me too. All we have is hope.
Im wishing
The best drummer The Cure will have in it's history!

agreee
That guitar from the very start, it's heart breaking!
It's a bass guitar - when you hear that guitar tone on a Cure record, it's a Bass VI. Robert uses it on a lot of songs because it just sounds so beautiful.
The deepest depths come from God for he create us.

😍The sound of that fender bass VI
It's amazing isn't it...
Best. Version. Ever.
magurofan Totally agree. It holds as the official version to me.
"To Wish Impossible Things"
remember how it used to be
when the sun would fill up the sky
remember how we used to feel
those days would never end
those days would never end
remember how it used to be
when the stars would fill the sky
remember how we used to dream
those nights would never end
those nights would never end
it was the sweetness of your skin
it was the hope of all we might have been
that fills me with the hope to wish
impossible things
but now the sun shines cold
and all the sky is grey
the stars are dimmed by clouds and tears
and all i wish
is gone away
all i wish
is gone away
all i wish
is gone away
my god,
krishna,
you are my impossible wish
my god ,
Dangelo ,
you are my impossible wish :[

amazing words
So I Do)))
Not safety for Humen)))
We can not all stand that "beautiful pain"
It was the sweetness of your skin, it was the hope of all we might have been that filled me with a hope to wish impossible things....
amazing and beautiful
no one will ever ever take the cures place
2:22 crying 😢 my eyes out
Слушаю эту группу с 1994 года...она очень сильно повлияла на мой внутренний взгляд и озерцание этого мира!Роберту и всей группе огромный респект!
This song will FOREVER remind me of my youth and dreaming under the stars.
I agree
A sad and lovely masterpiece.
Takes back to sunsets in my teenage days when I would ponder on my future. Love this song so much on my old cassette.
I agree. I have the same feeling. It's awesome!
One of the most beautiful songs ever.
There is no other song in the whole world that can be compared to "To Wish Impossible Things".
MASTERPIECE. And great live.
The saddest lyrics ever with the most beautiful music ever. It makes me sad, but also gives me hope.
One of my all time favorite Cure songs. It gets me every time. Wish is a SUPERB album, I wore it out. The incredible talent of Robert Smith & The Cure is mind blowing. My favorite band EVER!
Jennifer Hudson-Hartman indeed!!!
Die hard here! Favorite band Of all time! Followed by DEPECHE MODE
Summer of 92, Wendy and me were there at the Palace in Auburn Hills MI... 13th row, now it's 2020 and it hits me as if I were there right now... Miss you Wendy!

D’une beauté et d’une émotion intemporelles, les Cure ont été, sont et resteront toujours un groupe unique, curiste forever 🖤
i have spent days watching live perfomances of the songs of my youth and beyond.
Thank you Robert Smith for demanding more from your band.
Your lyrics are a mystery yet the musicianship still stands and sends shockwaves.

Seriously, the Cure can make me dance, rock out, and then have a song like this which is so touching and beautiful.
Hoping your ‘Wish’ comes true later this year, with the dlx 30?
Tho, Bob still owes us ‘In Orange’, ffs!
the great old days when guitars were connected to the amplis by wire .... i will love this song 'til my day willl come
Each time I listen to this it makes me realize how unprepared I am to handle the beauty of this song
I love this song!!! Is one of my favorites from The Cure, I`m Cure fan since 1991, the best band in the universe: THE CURE!!!
One of their best work.
This is from the 1992 wish tour..and I know because this was one of my favorite songs of that tour and I'll never forget that sunset they played in the background for this song..and I met someone here that changed my life..and I still love her with all of my heart,KS...thanks for posting this :)
My very first Cure show at 14. I’ll never forget. Just the beginning!
This is a song that shows very well the pensiveness of the cure. it is thought-provoking and just beautiful.
I LOVE THE CURE !!!!!!!
this album was one of the soundtracks to my adolescence....what a horrifying and beautiful time all at once...thanks for being there, Robert. xoxo
Incredible drummer!!!!!!

Remember how I used to dream and fly with this kinda music. I'm alive thanks to "The Cure"
Right now is cold here, mix it with this song and a heart missing pieces and there you go... perfect formula

I see you Robert. Your music is one of a kind and like no other in the world. Endearingly profound, captures those deep thoughts that we so often cannot find the words for.

Perfect song!!! My favourite band!!!
Une mélodie tout simplement exceptionnelle ! Merci Robert Smith et The Cure !!
I LOVE THIS SONG!!!!
Robert Smith is the poet Morrison
Wanted to be. His lyrics are haunting.
Denise Pascal you are so right !! Robert is amazing song writer!
Morrison wasn't that bad, is just that he did a lot of drugs so most of his lyrics are pure bulls**t
***** excellent description of the Cure
I could never grew tired of this masterpiece- oh to fill my heart can robert pen a love song!!!!
Song mesmerizes you & is over before you even think that it's coming to the end of the song. Ultimate genjutsu!
Pure magic
Every year revisit this video since 2009. Same happy sad, same excitement.
2019 in listening the cure salud amigos
This group is unique in the World. like this song. I truly see its a master piece. One the best songs never created.
They used lighters back then... Now cell phones. Saw them in Boston last week. They are still amazing, but this line-up was the best.
It amazes me how much beauty Roberts and the boys can conjure from the saddest of songs...simply awesome, wish I could have been there
To all of you out there, who get Robert Smith to the same depth as I do, every time you listen to this song, do like me: turn the volume up, free your mind from problems and negativity, close your eyes, start dreaming, remember those days, who we might have been, who we were, wish to go back to that time....but, all in all, is it really to wish impossible things?
All I wish, is gone away....
This is my favorit lineup
The best band in the world!!!!
Para mi the cure la mejor banda del mundo
Robert Smith for president !!!!!
I saw this tour with the Cranes. Such a great era Wish was, coming off Disintegration and kicking ass with great songs and a great live show.
Yes! The Cranes and Dinosaur Jr. opened up for the Cure. I saw them for the first time at the Rose Bowl on 6/27/92. It was my first concert and 26 years later the Cure is still my favorite band.
Yes, Flushing Meadows.
I saw them the next 2 nights after the shows they recorded for this release. They were in top notch form.
The start of this song is just magic the music the way they stand there and have the guitar stand off is just beautiful magic at its best
Желание невозможного до сих пор со мной!❤
me encanta, su voz me llena los oídos, la cabeza. Amo a robert smith♥
Of all Cure songs this is my favourite.
when they played this song at the hollywood bowl last weekend I literally bawled for the whole song. it was so unbelievably beautiful
remember how it used to be
when the stars would fill the sky
those nights would never end
it was the sweetness of your skin
it was the hope of all we might have been
that fills me with the hope to wish
impossible things
..
but now the sun shines cold
and all the sky is grey
the stars are dimmed by clouds and tears
and all i wish
is gone away..
I'm a HUGE Cure Fan! I love the Cure and every song of theirs I heard. I dont have any cds of theirs...And today was the first time I heard this song of theirs! WHAT HAVE I BEEN MISSING?! AGH! BEAUTIFUL!
I.LOVE YOU THE CURE
THE BEST
May science never EVER find a cure for The Cure! ❤ As I near 70, I will listen to The Cure until I die and then even from the grave.
Lorsque cela touche le cœur, les sentiments, les émotions me submergent.. Divinement belle.
Remember how we used to be... ❤️
GOD! I love this song!! Can close my eyes and feel every beat!
Special. So,so special.....
I wished for this song to show up in a proper live version, seemed impossible, but here we are. - In your face, Robert!
You are so right about that, life would not be worth living without The Cure. The Cure is everything that has to be said.
so much left on the table for this song.
Mixed up never had a part 2 for slower songs.
It'll never happen but watching the band smile during this set tells me there is more.
After years and years thinking which is my fav Cure song....this is it.
Still wishing impossible things, never ends...
Великолепная песня. The Cure великолепны!!!
It was the hope of all we might have been...
Timeless masterpiece. Throws me back in time every time I hear this one And so many other incredible songs by them.
1992, The Palace of Auburn Hills, Michigan.
This footage is from the 'Show' VHS which shows roughly 2 hours from that gig.
This performance makes every hair on the back of my neck stand up. Chills
If I had to choose a favorite Cure song,this would be the one.
it was the sweetness of your skin Ray Rios.....now all I wished is gone away....remember how it used to be, remember how we used to feel,,,,
was at this tour, OH MY GOD, best yet, seeing them again for the 6th time in dec ,...
Top 3 Cure song definitley!! Lasy days of Summer I think number one!! Very similar song!
Espectacular the cure , lo màximo los amoooo
Boris’ drumming was amazing here, as essential as a heartbeat
This song resume all my fate, I miss you Carol.
cant listen to this without wanting to cry . this is a very sad song about looseing the LOVE the SOUL mate of your life...
I have.
Miljana volim te najvise na svijetu!!! Ti si ljubav mog zivota....
For the love of my life....till the day we reunite
One of the greatest love songs of all time. I wish someone would write a song like this for me.
Every time I see The Cure labeled as pop music it makes me cringe- thank you for the beautiful music.
