      This was the original Cure... not the painted circus of commercial production geared towards new wave/gothic scene that creeped in when Lovecats arrived. Once the producers$ grabbed hold of them it became all about appealing hooks and looks rather than their original music...so it goes.

    I remember hearing A Forest in early 1982 when I was a high school freshman and wanting to like it so much, but I just didn’t. I wasn’t ready. Then I heard the album Pornography at a party when I graduated high school in 1985 and it changed everything for me. Just about everything I listen to now can be traced back to the way that album hit me at that party a little over 36 years ago. I’ll always love The Cure.

    • @nicemosaics

      I've been a Cure fan since the 80s and I have to admit that I never really got Pornography. The album never appealed to me that much. It's always cool to hear someone rank it highly in terms of their important Cure albums.

    • @russell_szabados
      @russell_szabados 3 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      @Ron Kelly I can understand that. Pornography is very dark, and that definitely has limited appeal. But I love how they vacillate between dark and light & bouncy music. After Pornography, they put out singles like “The Walk” and the album The Head On the Door. They followed Disintegration with “Friday I’m in Love”. The Cure have something for everybody.

What a great band I was lucky to follow my entire youth all the way to this time. It's quite sad actually hearing these songs played at their young age. It makes me yearn to be young again. Getting old sucks at times. I get depressed at times listening to the Cure now. Back in the day that never happened.

      He's an insane talent. Not just musically, but in his ability to bring the best people together, let them come and go, and let the music go on. Listen to The Top. That was when Simon was out of the band. Robert does all the bass, guitar, and singing on that album, and it's amazing.

    Art is art... painting, music, whatever. Liking this Cure over the band they would be 10 years later is like being a fan of early Van Gogh paintings over the crazy good paintings he did in his last 4 or 5 years. This was a strong start for any band... Head on the Door is where they graduated to their own sound and released 4 or 5 straight perfect albums thereafter with no filler. This Cure is Van Gogh's Potato Eaters. Disintegration, Kiss Me, and Wish are Van Gogh's Irises and Sunflowers. Awesome evolution.
