Who is listening to this song in 2024
People Who know music
Me
Disintegration is probably the best album of all time.
Me 👍
I listen to The Cure all the time. 😊
The Intro guitar riff is like medicine for the soul
For mine too.
The Cure for the soul
Is a mine of gold for Gustavo Cerati jajaj
Gustavo Cerati - Amo dejarte así is a sample of this song

52 years old and it's in my head like I was 20. Time marches on guys.
chill with the comments
One behind you and I love it
57. In Australia. Still love The Cure. Sang 10,15 in a band 85-7. Written at 15
Nearly 60 good god🙄..
The cure the forest i still have from 79🖤😎
Sure...
Such an eerie yet calming song. Like being all alone in the darkness, but it's utterly peaceful
☺💓👍
Love this analogy ❤
Add clusters for tightness in your personal space, as in claustrophobia, for the cure of both depression and anxiety! I know, another phobia for a cure.
if you're in america, you are alone in the darkness.
I dont get the peaceful part Id say you are all alone in the darkness and terrified to stillness
And people still think eillie bilish is the best whisper singer...
Nah ying yang twins done it better
agree ;)
😂😂😂
who?
Post punk and electropop is different.
*Tim Burton listening to his first Cure song*
“Guys, I have an amazing idea for, like, my next 15 movies.”
You are a genius
the best comment here so far.
Though this was later than Tim Burton (1993) so the joke fails. Both Tim and The Cure are the greatest. Well, and Danny Elfman!
@Retro Workshop...you are accurate about dates! I remember both at the current year!
Tim Burton wanted Robert to play Edward scissorhands but because he was touring with the cure he couldn't
"Don't struggle like that. I will only love you more". That's how to brand a lyric onto a mind. Thanks for that Robert.
Still my favorite cure song, whenever I want to escape everything and embrace the darkness around me🖤
Im becoming my managers victim . .

Fun fact: this wasn't supposed to be a music video, they just filmed a normal night in Robert Smith's life
even with the drummer?
@@a.h.8008 sure
I was having a sad day, this made me laugh too hard.....thanks (•‿•)
@@happypumpkin7956 you’re welcome
seems you lack anny form of atistic in you :)
There is just something so magical and addictive in this song.
Addictive is right. This song is withdrawal Incarnate.
No way I could resist dancing to this as a kid. Spiderman and a pulsating beat? This is me around the house all day🕺🏽
Yes, everything magical and addictive that can be dreaming of being devoured by a giant spider while the tin soldiers you play with sing a lullaby. Or perhaps, something or someone that comes at night to "hurt" you.
He sings like a spyder... That's why...

Caterpillar Girl is also really awesome
probably one of the greatest songs of all time
I know its a cliché, but no one can make this song today. Its so bizzare, intense, frightening but so great you have to listen to it in an awe.
Just a gem, nothing more or less.
Closest thing I can think of is the nightman cometh
Commercialism has killed the music industry.
Actually can, it just doesn't get viral
@@swarlly And many others. Greed ruins everything.
There are musicians who can make this kind of song today, they just won't get the mainstream success that The Cure got.
When I was 10 years old, my dad showed me this videoclip and I absolutely loved it, the song too. Since I was little, my dad realized that I like "that kind of things" so he always was showing me Tim Burton movies and songs by the cure.
He also read me Edgar Allan Poe's tales. I'm who I am because of him and I will be always proud of that.
I used to do the same for me and my 9 y.o. son, but I showed him Sweet Dreams by Jethro Tull, great too ! and my son enjoyed the song a lot and open his eyes every time we heard that song
Oh, a fellow necromancer?
Ты грязный лжец,тебе 52 года ты написал,папа показал тебе клип в 10 лет ,то есть 2023-42=1981, а ПЕСНЯ ВЫШЛА В 1989

Pretty well, i see..
The bizarreness in this one its just amazing isnt it?

I had the pleasure of seeing this performance live and it is one of the highlights of my life

Lucky you!, live, what a treat! Aloha from Hawaii
Definitely. Saw them live last December and it was a religious experience, especially during Lullaby and A Forest.
Hands down one of the best songs of the 80s.
Thank god my parents knew what good music is
Same dude
I hope my son later says the same thing about me. He's still a little too young now to understand that this music and the 80thies era was epic.
Thank God for good taste, Jim. It's in the gen.😆😆😆😉👍✌👌🤍💜🧨

I am German and 65 now and I still love this Song and will follow me until its over.
I’m 19 discovering the cure and their amazing sound. From seeing all the music videos and reading comments I’m just amazed how they bring out so much emotion and humanity in people. Robert smith is a genius.
In the same boat haha, 18 yrs old and just discovering how awesome they actually are
Stoked! You two have excellent taste🖤🖤🖤
Yeah dude this shit was sooo good when i was you're age check out Dinosaur Jr for a little bit harder super great writing music 😊
Same but I’m 20 😄
I'm no expert on Covid-19, but this is the Cure!
😂😂😂😂
🤔👍
stop. this coment is in every single video of the cure😩
Fluck you a lot!
Exactly identified.
This band is The Cure!👍 Yippie!
DARK, GOTHIC, ROMANTIC . This piece ia PHENOMENAL 🥰
🖤✨
Yes...everything that means everything you feel and think about when it comes to how you feel about getting though everything in life...the Cure cult following gets it when most don't🎶🎶🕶
Robert Smith claims he isn't goth
Romantic??? Dude this song is about robert smiths uncle who told hik bedtime stories as a child about a spider that eats children in their sleep. In what universe is that romantic?
@@niger9006 The violin at the end
The atmosphere created in this video is a perfect match to the beautiful creepiness of this song. Unique and timeless genius.
Almost Tim Burton like

Watch Possum (2018) and then watch this video again
💓
Agree. And so intricate. All the layers fit together like a musical painting. Robert is a master at that. Don’t care what anyone says I’ll always live The Cure. Did they ever have a bad song? lol. ✌️✌️✌️🖤🖤🖤🎼🎼🎼
The Cure isn't a band it's a feeling! you can tell their sound still influences so many modern indie artists, my friend is one of them, The Cure were the sound track to our high school days, every song is a timeless classic to us, while I'm here I wanna throw my friend some love for all the good times, he's a music producer now and makes great indie tunes on his laptop, try searching Lonely Gimmick - Roll Me Over, you may be in for a surprise
Wow. I havent heard this in years. i was 16 when this came out. I remember having this album on cassette and walking to school in the morning listening to this. Walking in the cold fog in fall and winter. No one tells you when you are young that getting old sucks. For all you young people out there, dont get old. Stay young.
Hey late 40s aint that old...lol... We were in highschool in the early 90s so young people dont know how good we had it back then... You stay young!😁💪
Getting old beats the alternative.
I'm walking to work in the fog right now, in fall. I'm 29 and just discovering this wonderful music, and I feel as if I should have found it years ago
Only gets old the people who don´t Live the present.
Approaching 60 and still young!

LYRICS
On candy stripe legs the spiderman comes
Softly through the shadow of the evening sun
Stealing past the windows of the blissfully dead
Looking for the victim shivering in bed
Searching out fear in the gathering gloom and
Suddenly a movement in the corner of the room
And there is nothing I can do
When I realize with fright
That the spiderman is having me for dinner tonight
Quietly he laughs and shaking his head
Creeps closer now
Closer to the foot of the bed
And softer than shadow and quicker than flies
His arms are all around me and his tongue in my eyes
Be still be calm be quiet now my precious boy
Don't struggle like that or I will only love you more
For it's much too late to get away or turn on the light
The spiderman is having you for dinner tonight
And I feel like I'm being eaten
By a thousand million shivering furry holes
And I know that in the morning I will wake up
In the shivering cold
And the spiderman is always hungry
This song sounds so sensual.
Yes I know right? 😮
1% spiderman
1% edward scissorhands
98% talent
100% talent
You are genius !
xd and pantomima?
and 1% Didier Bourdon!
2% zombie xD
cant believe i grew up in the 80s , listened to the cure on the radio , but for some reason never heard this song till yesterday , i had it on repeat at work on my head phones the whole day and got home and couldnt help my self to crank it loud on my home stereo , my neighbours must have thought i have dropped dead and left it on repeat , the ending to the song just lifts your soul , pure genius of a song
Such a sexy beat.. and that unforgettable “Spider-Man is having you for dinner tonight”.. just awesome! 😂❤
The sad thing about the cure is, once they leave they are gone forever. I’ve been enjoying the magical sounds that Robert puts out since 1980.They have carried me through my relationships with the songs that last forever in my mind. No one can replace The Cure. I hope they live forever until I’m gone.
Truth.
I’m 22 and I’ve loved The Cure for years now, I get to see them tomorrow in concert and it’s a bucket list thing to do of mine! The Cure truly are an individual stand out band, I love how unique they are.
Real
It just hit me that they are mortals
My mother passed in 1980 when I was still a kid and these songs saved me. They tucked me in at night and helped form me. To everyone who wasn’t/isn’t like ‘the rest’-we are so lucky to have The Cure in our hearts ♥️
Such a hauntingly gorgeous piece of artwork is music to my ears for an eternity
Spiderman, Spiderman, does whatever a spider can. Spins a web any size, catches thieves just like flies. Look out, here comes the Spiderman
Dancing this song in a gothic club is the first thing I am gonna do, when corona goes away.
Cool but the cure isn't a goth band....on an interview robert smith said it's the one thing that pisses him off when people think it's goth music.
@@alanhilton3611 there not a goth band per say but they went through stages like disentergration and there second albun
You win
I,m dance with You🖐️😉🖤
@@alanhilton3611 But they were one of those first band that introduced gothic music.
Best song the cure ever made
Yes!
and they made a lot of good ones:)
And close to me
What´s about "In the forest, Hanging garden" and much more?
Matter of opinion but yes it's amazing
In 20 years time people will still be listening to the Cure.
the violins kills me every time...
Kanye West playing, watch carefully.
Its keyboard right!!
@nasser wiz nono he/she means the picking
TheBlack Vixen which is also keyboard its called pizzicato
too me
The best ASMR band.

The origin of the band name "The Cure" has been explained by the band's frontman, Robert Smith, in various interviews over the years. According to Smith, the name "The Cure" was chosen when the band was still in its early stages, and it was meant to be a contrast to the more aggressive and confrontational names that many punk bands were adopting at the time.
Robert Smith wanted a name that conveyed a positive and hopeful message. The idea was that the music of the band would serve as a kind of cure for the ills and negativity that people might be experiencing. It was a deliberate choice to have a name that suggested a remedy or solution, and it has become an iconic name in the world of alternative and post-punk music.
when does easy cure come in play in this story?
I saw The Cure live tonight and it was EVERYTHING I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE AND MORE. This has been my favorite band for over 30 years and I'm stoked!!! 😂 They played LULLABY, as I was walking out in a forest, but not alone, to my car. It was a magical night. Thank you Robert Smith 💋
My dad used to listen to the cure when he was in college, 57 this year and he still remembers the lyrics. What a legend
i'm 51 yo i'm like your father best regards from France
Ya for sure.....I'm 56 and never stopped listening to the Cure....what's better....???
@@thomasgroh3276 57 here and the same!!!❤❤
@@BeachLover6571 I miss the 80's....
I am 56 and I am just like your dad. I actually just purchased some tix for their ‘23 North American leg of their tour.
I remember being a kid sitting in front of the tv after school seeing this song every 20 minutes on MTV
Me too.
In the fall of 1989.
💓☺
This is a classic..first time I watched this I was 16 and could not take my eye off the screen I was hypnotized
this song was so ahead of its time....
How can it have been ahead of its time, if ninety percent of the music now is trite rubbish? It was in and of its own time which was a better one musically speaking than today.
***** if you read my comment, you will see, after a cursory glance, that I said ninety percent of today's music is trite rubbish which leaves a sizeable percentage for music of quality. Would you argue that Just 'in' Beaver, I mean Justin Bieber is good!? How could such music in anyway, shape or form be called an evolution of diatonic harmony? Incidentally, please keep your subjective impressions of me to yourself, I am probably the least 'nostalgic guy' you are ever likely to meet! Best wishes Villiago.
+MrSorintiberiu Todays music, is crap
That's bullshit, if you're listening to mainstream radio/watching MTV then yes, you're going to get generic shit. But make the effort to look around online and you'll find so many great bands/artists making incredible music. Glass Animals, Citizen, Wolf Alice, EDEN, The 1975*, Tremonti, Blues Pills, Stephen just to name a few in diverse genres (* Don't go for the obvious singles like Chocolate, The Sound or Girls, though they're also good, I'd recommend checking out Pressure, Me & The City)
I used to listen to the 1975 a while back and I found that their music was way to pop and theyre just worshiped by 12 year old girls... Although I love Meanswear
This is honestly one of the cures best songs ever
...and their lyrics 🤩
This is honestly one of the best songs ever*
I was 20 when this cure classic video came out..I remember thinking what a amazing weird song ,,NOW ITS A MASTERPIECE..
Still a belter of a song in 2024 i so love this track 👌🏽💯❤️
sexiest song ever, no matter what he's saying, the nasty and whispering way he's doin' it it's just amazing along with the instrumentation.
Exactly my thoughts for this song :)
Umm, this song is about a man sneaking into a child’s room ya know
Closer from NIN
@@sadiepearson3360 no it isn't. It is about the fear of sleep, as Robert Smith himself has explained. His father used to sing horrible lullabys for him when he was little, giving him nightmares every night.It's about the irrational fear.
Scorpio Kitty oh thanks for the clarification
I can't put in words what this song does to me emotionally no matter how often I already listened to it
I know exactly what you mean, it's just one of those tracks.
It’s always songs I listened to as a teenager that brings back the feels for me, not sure if new things I listen to now will do the same for
Me in the future ? Back then we had time to lie on the bed and just listen huh
💯💯👋 agree!
Fact
I completely agree
Classic music that will sound good for many many years too come.
Amazing song❤❤❤
The Cure and Robert Smith have the ability to tell a story, to create a feeling, to bring you emotionally and, in some songs like this, physically into their music like few if any can do today. Their brilliance shines in the simplistic melodies they use. And that is not a put down. It's more of an appreciation of how great they are by being able to create such intense feelings with such precision and ease. They really are musical and lyrical royalty.
Whisper singing. It’s crazy that Lullaby came out in 1983. I was FOUR. WHAT?? I listened to this as a teenager and now again in 2023. 30 years ago this song came out. Robert Smith was a genius. Nice lipstick, too!
I agree 100%. Well said.
well said and very much agree!!!
Lullaby is on the Disintegration album. That album came out in the late 80's ... not '83. I was there. Lol.
I wonder if the spider bragged to his spider friends, saying "oh guess what, I've just been in the video of The Cure".
Ha ha nice one
He totally did..
🤣
Hahaha 🤣🤦🏻♀️
Lol 😂
I just found this song today, I cannot stop listening to it. The second it started I fell in love.
Thrilling
Good music never gets old.
Never!🌟
No, 🙏
While those who appreciate it are still alive
Totaly agree
This song hits different when you listen to it at 2:00 in the morning
I love listening to this song as a come back home from highschool, its night and gloomy but i feel fine
Timeless ❤
instrumentaly this song is just supreme
SUPREME, 800 dol.
Wszechbyt Doskonały .. 100000% correct, makes me hair stand up it’s THAT good. Everything just fits together so artistically

That awkward moment when Peter Parker is having you for dinner tonight.
mariano Nicolas Mary Jane says he's always late.
Lol
Jajajaja :)
+mariano Nicolas "That the Peter Parker is having me for dinner tonight!" sounds like the lyrics is written from MJ's point of view
+mariano Nicolas I think about this comment every time I listen to this song, now. Great. Thanks.
I was fascinated yet scared by this clip when I was a little girl. But I loved the music so much.🤍
The Cure, I loved watching this! Great job!
A song of pure ecstasy.
+Katt AD I just agree
Yeah
A song that’s about a young boy being sexually abused by a man who’s sneaked into his room. Not sure if ecstasy is the word I’d use for it
@@Skeksistential-crisis the sound
Spiritual attacks during sleep paralysis@@Skeksistential-crisis
This video is so melancholic. I always imagine it as Robert feeling so depressed he can’t get out of bed. The “Spider-Man” is just a manifestation of his depression getting ready to take him over. I remember a year ago I had a day where is was so depressed I didn’t want to move and I played this song on repeat and watched the video and saw Robert feeling the same and hearing his gorgeous voice telling me he feels what I do. I helped me a lot. Might sound stupid but this song saved me
I was looking for a comment which would relate to that !
Beyond amazing
Absolutely brilliant song❤
Arachnophobia level: Robert Smith
but I think he's kinda enjoying it
With that hair I doubt spiders bother him good tune though
tengo aracnofobia pero acá gozando del video
They should change the title of this song because when I was seven, my sister was away for a sleepover and she would usually sing me a lullaby, so I looked up lullaby on her computer and this one came up. I watched this video and it scared the shit outta me. What's more, there was a huge spider in the corner of my room and I thought it was gonna eat me.
lol
This is fucking gothic music what did you aspect?
Linda Sperati I didn't know back then, I just thought it was a lullaby.
That was hilarious!
this band was called "The Cure". it doesn't mean they were doctors or nurses.
A great band....Nice music.
Haunting and a masterpiece
this song will never stop being good

My neighbours love this song so much they threw a brick on my window so they can hear it better

Ahahahaha
Album or extended version? XD

This video was beautifully shot for it's time
Robert said this song is about his childhood when his Dad would read him the creepiest bedtime stories. They left an everlasting impression. 🕷️ And the best song ever recorded!
Nah the story of this song is more dark than this :/
*King of Quarantine*
Just an ovva fucking day for me. Mad as fuck n I love it. X
how do u know it
I agree with you.
Just a kid from 1983 knew this was the right path. The Cure is one of the most amazing bands in rock history
83 the year i discovered the cure and siouxsie... i was 6/7 x
You better believe it
❤️
The Cure was so original and creative. Everyone is giving different reasons about why no one could create this today. You could never recreate it because it was the 80s. The Cure is one of the first bands I think of when I think of bands that represent the 80s. Maybe there"s a band that could cover a song by the Cure, besides Adele!
Gorgeous
Just perfect ! Still such a beautiful song timeless !
I'm positive that EdgarAllan Poe, would love this one.
Seems a bit too cheerful for him though!
@@zacmumblethunder7466 it's not too cheerful - there were badasses all the time through history. Edgar Allan Poe, of course, is one and we respect him. Franz Kafka also.
driving at night in the middle of nowhere to this song, is amazing.
Exactly 🖤to drive alone in the dark with this heartbeats
dont comment and drive ;)
Stay safe man
Absolutely, i was driving a bicycle in the middle of the night, coming back from my gf house trough the forest a few days ago, with this song on headphones
It was so fucking good and creepy at the moment
Un dialogue ironique peu courant chez Melville et le grand art de Paul Meurisse.

Absolutely agree!
Masterpiece!!
i love this song always.
I'm the only one who thinks that The Cure has the greatest melodies ever? My god, that guitar riff might not be tricky or super complex but it totally works, is incredible, it almost sounds like unpredictble, I mean, when you start listening the riff you expect some other notes to be played, like "oh it's just another typical melody that it goes like this others". I know it might sound really stupid I just wanna know if someone shares my opinion xd (Sorry for bad spelling, english's not my mother tongue)
no se they’re just one of the greatest bands of all time let’s be honest
Get what you're saying and totally agree, it's kind of familiar riffs but incomplete and so original and satisfying
Yes, what applies here is the old saying in the book... 'Simplicity is the highest form of Sophistication.'
loescuche mucho afine delos ochenta
I'm not some "The Cure" superfan, and I know them mainly trough televized hits, but I sure think that they really have some of the greatest riffs of popular music in general.
Everytime i see a huge spider on my ceiling, this song starts playing in my head before I choose my move aha
😂😂😂
Lol i laughed out loud when i read that
The best !
Very talented artist, love all The Cure Songs ..😊
what a MASTERPIECE !!
Only Robert smith could make this work vocally and visually ... Legend

As a child I was so scared of this video, it even gave me nightmares. It's been a long journey since then now that I consider both song&images one of the finest creations of pop music ever. Don't be afraid of the dark, kids, it will eventually become your friend.
I am, today (I'm 37), afraid of MGMT's kids video
I don't know what that stands for but 4 letter acronyms are generally scary😃👍
