I still come back to both of those because they were so well done and capture such a nice energy. They're complimentary, really.

This could easily be one of the greatest 100 songs of all time.
Robet Y ur Right man
Robet Y DEFINITELY!!!!
This song has so many emotions that are intertwined into one another. That is art my friends!!! Josh
I've seen it voted as number 1 sad song in the UK. Sads songs say so much you know
Top 50,easy
Robert's voice is timeless. This song is a masterpiece.

It's like he's still 30 years old
Absolute Perfection. Beautiful beyond words
Masterpiéce!,🌏🌍
I was his mum n dads postman in Crawley 89-92
The Cure are one of the very few bands that can make me want a 7 minute song to be twice as long.
True
Agree 💯
@@Bigbadwhitecracker 00w
Perfectly said. The only band that can immediately thrust my mind back to when I was in college. Best friends around me, best music, best smoke, best times ⏲️
True
The older I get the more this song tears me up. The lyrics ring so true about the people we lose and his delivery is so haunting. But I still love to hear it.
Love that description. Haunting. Yes it is. Completely.
It does seem to hit harder as we age for sure. Right in the feels.
I’m cry every time I hear their song, not only the lyrics but how they play, sing and perform it is absolutely stunning 🥰♥️🥺😢😭😍
I served in the Australian Army for a short part of my life. One day we had an American pilot on transfer training from the U.S flying the chopper into a jungle training area in North Queensland. This song was blasting on the sound system. We had never really heard of "The Cure" When I hear this song now I can close my eyes and be transported back to another time when my mates and I were so much younger. I have loved this band ever since that day.
It truly bothers me that no one in the comments have mentioned how great Simon Gallup's bass line is in this song. Simon Gallup is such an underappreciated bass player, and has wrote some of the most iconic bass lines in rock.
Totally agree..
you just did. :)
I agree
Agreed
Bass is so important to the Cure sound. 100% accurate.
Our daughter was conceived during a loop of Disintegration the year it came out. I climbed in her car last week & she had this cranked .....I just smiled.
bet you felt so proud in that moment!
WHAT....A.....MOMENT IN TIME.
You "just smiling" was both priceless and subtle genius.
Great stuff.
A gift for that moment...Robert's Manager wrote back to me recently when i sent it to Robert...i think they got it!

Finito.
That is pretty awesome Mr. Dean. Good taste carries down the line in your clan obviously. Well done all the way around.
aww... that just made me cry and smile at the same time. Xx
I never want their songs to end. Robert Smith still sounds great in 2023. Love The Cure ❤
How in earth is this possible???!!! Still sounding as the original! The best live band ever! Thank you Robert ❤️
Such beautiful composition and timing, so happy I grew up with them in my life.
I’m 70 and I just discovered this beautiful song. How lucky you are finding them in your youth.
@@virginiaknighten4687 : Definitely. The mid/late 60's and 70's laid the foundation for what came about later. In fact, The Cure began formally at the tail end of the 70's. Having said that, the 80's was indeed a magical decade and the album 'Disintegration' from The Cure capped off the 80's in the most stellar and appropriate way.
@@Lunatic4Bizcas I have had music in my life as far back as 5 years old...I love discovering new artists and songs...No Music No Life...
Same voice, same spirit. Timeiess.
I was born in 95 im so happy and lucky to have them still living in my life time . I can’t believe his voice is still exactly the same 🥲
To Robert Smith....Thank you for this beautiful master piece. Everyone who hears this song has a richer and better life after. I love to listen to "Pictures Of You" over and over for the memories and emotions it generates in my heart. I will always be grateful for this epic song.
You are so right 👍
So true! It’s my favorite Cure song.
Really? To me it's just a nice song, one of many Cure songs that I've listened to from the late 70's to late 80's period of the Cure. It's had no impact on my life whatsoever..😅😅 ☮️☮️
@@leethomas255 i suppose you're not from that timeline ?
@@stefhenrion2580 i don't understand what you mean by 'that timeline'. Do you mean from the 1980's or any time between 1980 and 2023? I've listened to lots of music from the 80's, so what is your point Stef?
Ohhh that bass❤
With all due respect, I must say it's not just "that bass"...
It's Simon's bass at his best ❤❤❤
They are such a great live band. It’s like we’re back in 1989. Robert sings like he’s 22.
SOL SHALEM ... I grew up with him... I would add “Almost” sounds the same. A bit of a change, but nonetheless good job!
I have to disagree with you on that. I love The Cure and saw them live in the early 90's at William and Mary. All they did was just stand there and barely moved. You could not understand a thing Robert said in between songs. It was one of the worst concerts I have ever been to. I still love them but will never pay to go see them.
Stephen Bard even now? This video makes it pretty clear that they’re committed to sounding excellent onstage.
@@StephenBard Then you clearly never listened to them live. Bands don't have to bounce around on stage to be interesting. And after you listen to them talk a lot, you understand what they are saying most of the time. It took me a while to be able to decipher most of what Robert says, but sometimes it is also just hard to hear people when they talk live. It is a shame that you have chosen such petty reasons to miss out on one of the best live bands out there. Especially in their prime. They are not nearly as good now as they were in the early to late 90s. But you go ahead and keep on having your weird arbitrary reasons to judge people, and keep seeing bands that are actively checking their fitbits during shows, and I'll watch people who focus on playing well and sounding good. And who actually write and play music I like. And clearly you didn't watch Simon as he doesn't usually stand still that much.
@@eboethrasher I was born in 95 and I love their music . I would for ever grateful to see them live before time runs out specifically this song I just feel so at home
Absolutely enchanted by 'Pictures of You' from The Cure's iconic 1989 album 'Disintegration.' This track is a beautiful example of how simplicity in music can create profound emotional depth. It's built around a core set of four chords - A, E, D, G - that weave a repetitive, mesmerizing pattern throughout the song. What truly sets it apart, though, is not just the chords themselves, but the way The Cure layers these simple progressions with rich textures and atmospheric effects. The guitar work, bass lines, and percussion all intertwine to create a soundscape that's both haunting and deeply moving. It's a testament to the band's genius in crafting a sound that's complex in emotion yet straightforward in structure. This song isn't just about the chords; it's about how they're played and the mood they create. It's a perfect example of The Cure's ability to convey powerful feelings through seemingly simple musical choices.
To the Cure: You've always said the right words and will hold on to our hearts forever.
Hello, I really appreciate the love and support I get from you all my lovely fans
I sincerely hope you never stop listening to my music 🎶❤
@@RobertSmithofficialThank you for all the great music and memories
63 years old and I love this song, just beautiful. Thank you Mr. Smith.
What a combo...The Cure, and "Pictures of You", AND the Sydney Opera House! Squeeee!
I had the great pleasure to see The Cure perform for two nights at the Sydney Entertainment Center in October 2000. Robert's mum sat near me on night 1. Simply elegant!!!!
💋❤💋❤💋
Peace ✌️, Light ✨️, and Love 🫶, one and All.
Pace ✌️, Luce ✨️, and Amore 🫶, a tutti.
Cool beans.
This song is so magical. It transcends time. I always cry whenever I listen to this song. And I'm just 25, while this song is 30!
your cultured 👍🏼
Baby I'm in my 40s and here I am all these years listen to this beautiful piece as if I was a teenager watching the video on MTV and hearing the lyrics for the 1st time capturing my soul.
I can literally remember hearing it for the first time, it's a magical song!!
53 and i still time travel to the 80's via the Cure .. Push-Forest and other non commercial songs
This is the 1 song that from the very first time I heard that beautiful guitar I Knew it would actually change me. And then I listened to it in it’s entirety....and while I cannot remember hearing another say that I’ve had a history of being at a loss for words, I’m unable to communicate anymore. My body is quivering from this music. I probably shouldn’t say : that this is a song, sung by the greatest singer ever...that could prompt a sane person to leave their life and walk the earth to find another way or thing or person or purpose or ‘something’ that could compare to how this song makes me feel (and I don’t even Know how it makes me feel. I said that already, right?).....How can they be so talented? I love The Cure forever!
Wow - how come his voice is exactly the same as 30 years ago??? Is that even possible? Love you C-U-R-E!!!!
Why the time didn't stop 80's ?
Best time , best people, best life , best song ❤🌷
No doubt!!! The best song ever.
@@MarioFlores-nn4if é mágico! 🇧🇷
Lost génération
MUSIC FROM ANOTHER GALAXY
This is what I call real musical creativity. None of these new gen kids can come even close to this
They truly take you for an amazing musical journey. Then BAM, the voice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What a ridiculous thing to say. I bet you're the kind of person that only ever listens to old records & thinks they're in the position to comment on the music of today
There are some absolutely incredible young bands kicking about, boomer
Admiring how the drummer is running the base drum. I'd love to be a member of this band especially on stage at the Sydney O.H.
The legendary Robert Smith
Robert's voice is flawless. Amazing how it hasnt aged 1 single day over the years.
Taking my kids to see The Cure at Madison Square Garden in June, hoping they will play this! It truly is one of my fvorite songs of all time, and the feelings it conjures are timeless.
They will. It’s the second song. I took my daughter to the concert in Houston last week. Amazing show. You will not be disappointed. Enjoy!
You're probably there now?
My favorite song all the time, I told my daughters "When a died please play that song in my funeral, thank you THE CURE for this BEATIFUL song.
So privileged to be a teen, in the classic era of music. The Cure is one of the best live bands, you will ever see.
This is my favourite song by The Cure and I find it spine tingling from the moment I hear it to the very end of the song. I got into The Cure as a young boy via my older sister and loved this then, love it even more now. It never ages and the chords can take you to those places of a time gone by and I had two very close friends who loved The Cure and they are both sadly no longer with us. I will never forget Sue or Mack and I know they both loved this song and band. I hope they are looking down now as I remember them both so fondly .
It was a long time before i rediscovered The Cure and i never looked back
The reason his voice sounds like it did in the 80s is simple. He's one of those rare singers whose voice is true when singing. Meaning, his singing voice is more or less his talking voice amplified
This man's voice never changes because hes magical and it seems he can flawlessly transcend time itself.
Such a beautiful song! Robert Smith’s vocals and talent haven’t aged. Simply amazing!
Hello, I really appreciate the love and support I get from you all my lovely fans
I sincerely hope you never stop listening to my music 🎶❤
Here is 2023 and I was so damn lucky to see them 2 times in less then 4 months!! ❤❤❤❤I’m Chicago at Allstate arena and then Riotfest……..they are still amazing after all these decades!! Timeless!!
Absolutely sublime. One of the most beautiful songs ever 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Disintegration is such a great album....
My thumb hurts from giving every comment a thumbs up. All of you are saying what is in my heart. The Cure is my cure…for everything.
You have a kind heart supertrooper! Wishing you all peace in the world.
There is nothing in the world that I ever wanted more...
Abishek Chopra ……than Robert.
Me to!
The ending chord progression over which that lyric is sung is awesome. And when the change to it comes, it's just magic. After hearing mostly the same few chords for the preceding several minutes, the closing phrase hits like a hammer.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
…than to feel you deep in my heart
The whole album "Disintegration" 1989 was a great album and glad I was 18 at the time to really let it sink in...
I was 20, same here!
19 here.
Same...This album is timeless..
I was 21 at that time. Great memories
I was 14, and my mom and I now laugh about at the time she was worried.
My favorite Cure song
Life is so hard, thank you The Cure for helping me process it all.
The guitar on this song is majestic.
The intro, oh the intro..
don huan it’s like a cool breeze...
The intro is one of the greatest of all time. I'm a listener of very eclectic music tastes including psychadelic metal like "Tool" but this is the best intro of a song ever. Hands down. Tool is the greatest band ever, but, this song alone may be better than anything tool ever made. To put it into perspective, I'm a fan of modern and old pop rock, punk, pop punk, psychadelic metal, psychadelic rock (young and old), grunge etc. It's crazy how good this song is.
yeahhhhh !!! the best intro i ever heard no doubt !!!!
Drove across the USA from Vancouver to Toronto during two January 1991 cold days with a badly broken leg. No frills money, just enough to pay for gas to get back to friends in Toronto. Played this album over and over and over again to keep me awake and made it within 48 hours arriving just in time as money for gas was no more. Wonderful memories and thanks to Robert & Co. for getting me through that amazing ordeal, but really not an ordeal as I look back at it now 30 years later in 2020. It was pure pleasure to share that ride with The Cure.
Royden Bellman 48 hours is hauling!
1991 was such an eventful year
@@wyattlavigne Sure was man. I had trucker friends who later said they just simply did not believe me. lol I did it and clocked about 140 to 150 kilometres per hour at least almost the whole way. Amazing I never got a speeding ticket. Did not sleep a wink, ran on pure adrenaline out of necessity and the beautiful tunage.
@@roydenbellman my dad did it three times. 57 hours was his best. 110 or so he said was his average. Grats on no ticket.
@@wyattlavigne Cool. Was driving a Volkswagen Jetta, one of those driveaway deals they had at the time where you drove mainly old folks cars cross country for a fee. Not sure if they have that going anymore, been living in Asia for the past 16 years. No driving for me over here man. :) And yes thanks for the grats, lol, incredible I did not get stopped by a nasty cop with distaste for my long hair and look. A gander at my shattered leg in a cast and my crutches and maybe I would have gotten sympathy and no ticket? Nah. Cops are cops in the States and Canada, ha ha, remember crossing the Peace Bridge in Buffalo I think it was and being stunned by how fast ppl were driving in and around Toronto especially the QEW. Way faster than our American neighbours. Speaking of fast, thanks for the swift reply. Cheers man!
They’ve still got it
This song reaches deep down inside me and grabs my heart....
Still brings shivers to me when I hear the opening chords.
Brilliant lyrics then come to solidify a fantastic song.
A depth to the lyrics that are underappreciated... not just another pop song.
He is a musical genius! This music was written a long time ago but is haunting and captures the emotion of reminiscing of a lost love.
They sound as good now as they did back in the 80's... Timeless
Amazing sound and emotion. It’s all there. The Cure is one of the great bands of all time.
Only gets better with age! Thanks Robert!
Such a joyous, surreal, multi-textured sound. This song instantly puts me in a great mood.
I remember one late summer night my mom driving me and my brother home after an evening at my grandparents and playing with my first cousins this had to be 1990 or 1991 and this beautiful song comes on the radio, I was like 12 years old and really getting into music as any teenager does. It was such a beautiful end to a summer night. I’m so glad my mom listened to different types of music.
Loving and losing is the worst thing and the best thing that can happen to you. 1989. Disintegration.
Masterpiece by the Cure!
Robert Smith in my life for more than 40 years,still sounding f%£king fantastic
Why do I get so emotional everytime I watch this Performance or listen to the song. It must be his voice because it's so emotive 💔🖤
Disintegration is one of my all time favorite CD's. Masterpiece.
From a teenager I've always loved songs of sadness so "Disintegration " album was right up my street. Lots of beauty in sadness even when I've reached 68.
As I have reached 65 and still darn good at his age as well!💜🎸🥰
I used to be posing and so selective in my favorite music's. Now I'm 50 and I relise how much time I was an idiot. I assume lately my love for the Cure that I would listen to in my bedroom hidden and shameful at the time. What an idiot I used to be. Now I have a little less than probably the half of the rest of my life to assure how much I do love their music. It's always time to grow in our minds.
The Cure 🎶🎶🎶🎶... Sir Robert Smith... With me since 1980... 'til eternity...
Watching during the lockdown of 2020 looking for a cure.
no cure for fake pandemic
cheers from croatia
So beautiful and haunting. I cried of happiness
The Cure ist der 🔨 . Plainsong und Picture of you ist die Krönung.
Such a perfectly put together song ...one of the best songs of all time ...along with Joy Divisions “ Atmosphere” and Smiths “I know it’s over “....
It's hard to imagine the songwriter phrasing the words to a song written over 30 years ago with such nuanced feeling, but Robert really does that in this performance. That makes all the pain and heartache I was overcome with during a difficult period 20 years ago, during which I listened to this song countless times, ring that much more true.
its 2021 and I still listening to this beautiful song by remarkable band!
The bass line it's amazing!!
Breaks my heart to know I'm so old and just now hearing this music. However I don't know if there's any other time In my life that this music would have had such an impact. Literally 😭right now.
I shake my head when people say The Cure is one of the best bands of the 80's. No they're one of the best bands of any era.
Es gibt keine bessere Band auf der Welt als the cure. Sie sind kreativ gut und einfach wunderbar
I saw the Cure in Edinburgh in 1984, (faith tour) absolutely brilliant, never forget that night, I’m 55 now (in 2020) 😂
Love it and iam 65 and love the cure,41 years and counting they must be doing something right
Diane Greene , hey! Diane , respect 👍🏴
Faith came out in 1981.
Robert Smith : thank you, my mistake
Songs written, and sang, from the heart, are ageless.
My God, how beautiful is that ? Thank You Robert Smith and The Cure
Instant time travel to my teenage times. So awesome.
Robert Smith’s talent is timeless!
This takes me back 35 years, so great, they never seem to grow old. Robert's voice still is like he just produced this song.. Beautiful, thanks for sharing it with us. It literally brought tears to my eyes listening to it. They just don't make music like this anymore, unfortunately. I hope I can find the full concert one day here on TH-cam. Thanks!
what a voice right? like the day he wrote it
th-cam.com/video/mETpeERZWZc/w-d-xo.html
just pop this in to the You Tube search "the cure full concert"
@@GMan-Howick Thanks friend! I just saved this on my computer and placed this on my facebook, so I will always be able to see this. Many thanks!
So good! Great music breaks your heart and mends it at the same time.. nobody does that as perfectly as the cure
@Jackie Hillson Agreed. Great concise poetic way to describe this amazing band's music. Their album 'Pornography' sure didn't do much of the mending part though. :)
Exactly
Sad but beautiful...good memories coming...
Hearing this takes me back to the late 80s. Damn. Such an incredible and profound song.
What great and truly talented musicians to write such original music! The Cure is unlike so many shallow, popular musicians whose music doesn't pass the test of time. I am deeply saddened by lack of true musicians in this generation.
THIS SONG IS FANTASTIC!
So agreed ,it is one of their best and stillis,play it everyday as it is a happy song of theirs that I truly love
What can anyone say, pure poetry, and the voice just blows you away!
This is the first time I've heard this song. Never was a big Cure fan, but I'm learning Just Like Heaven on guitar and thought I'd look up some more songs by them....Wow. This is a great song.
Highly recommend you obtain their DISINTEGRATION album. You will not be disappointed!🎸
Welcome to the Cure....you are in for a treat.
I am 16 rn and I love the cure, the cure had inspired me to play guitar...I love Robert Smith and the fact that he stills sounds the same like in the 80s blows my mind
Iconic, The Cure and their amazing music is timeless. So happy to see this.
Such a beautiful song and sound.
Great tune when the keys enter superb robs voice is on point too.
grew up with this band. Love for them is off the charts!
Simon is the matrix of this song!!! Bass line is pure magic!
Sounds like yesterday !!! Really is unbelievable :-)
Best Song Ever💗
Beautifully melodic and haunting still. This song is part of the soundtrack of my life and a heartbreak beyond words. MLL
same here
When I have to explain to someone what perfection is .... I just play this song to that person
This song gets me every time. Doesn't matter how many times I've listened before. Saw them live in Chicago back in 2016. Brought tears to my eyes. Forever a favorite band. Thank you, The Cure, for bringing your magic to our ears.
I’m 60 and this song reminds me of my soulmate Dalby.
That bass sound!! Simon is my fav cure!
Simon got.moves
I’ve always loved the way he bops around the stage 🖤
At the time, when this album dropped, I felt like the cure was past their prime and this was just filler.
The head on the door, the top, faith, and my all time favorite (to this day) seventeen seconds were all bedrock mortar albums that influenced the very person I was at the time but I felt like this “modern” album was just fodder for an unintelligent child. Interestingly enough, I wore this cassette tape out. Then I bought the CD.
Listening to this album now, I honestly think it’s the best Cure album of them all. The hair stands up on my neck when most of the songs start and I have vivid flashbacks of what it was like to be listening to the album as an American kid that didn’t want to be a part of bubble gum or big hair rock.
I was so awkward but I miss those days.
it is a masterpiece!
Such a great album. Saw them for the first time at Fiddlers Green in Denver on September 4th, 1989...still have the ticket stub.
Arnold D with Love and Rockets and Pixies. I was there too!
His voice has not changed at all over the years. Great music
I’ve loved this band for 30+ years, this is one of my favourite tracks 💜
Hello, I really appreciate the love and support I get from you all my lovely fans
I sincerely hope you never stop listening to my music 🎶❤
