Robert Smith is the only person alive to sing
And when I see you kitten as a cat
Yeah, as smitten as that, I can't get that small
The way you fur, the how you purr
It makes me want to paw you all
And not have it be utter cringe.

Knew this one was coming, but it finally happened. Trust and Doing the Unstuck are very underrated.

I still have the 'Show' on VHS. Last time I played it might have been while I was doing my taxes many many years ago hah when I also had a VCR hooked up. To Wish Impossible Things is wonderfuk. I absolutely love Doing the Unstuck as mentioned before.
I've really only been into the Cure since 2001, I'd say. I spent a LOT of time listening to all their old albums after BloodFlowers came out. So it feels like a lifetime for me being a fan at times hehe

The VHS version of Show features A Forest, which is the best version of that song they ever recorded, with an extra verse and a nod to Joy Division at the end. It’s a pity they didn’t include it on the CD, I had to rip it from youtube to add it to the tracklist.

yo Gabba. I believe ya ha. I was so happy I got the IN Orange tape eons ago. Now all this stuff is online. But it was fun when you had a physical tape to push it in.

Kind of obsessed with Doing the Unstuck. Should've been a single

A real feelgood one. When my colleague was diagnosed with cancer and we all sent her a “get well song”, this was my choice.

That's really sweet. I know I want to jump around whenever I hear it.
Move over, Burning down the house by Talking Heads. There's a new happy song about arson.

“Kind of obsessed with Doing the Unstuck. Should've been a single”
Growing up in LA and listening to KROQ (and 91X down south), I thought it was a single because I would hear this all the time on those stations. But yeah you’re right, it was never actually released as a single. I never realized it till reading your comment.

Album is definitive.
Also makes you realise what an unbelievable achievement Songs of a Lost World is

@EoinCofa if Smith is to be believed, it was going to be, but they switched it with a Letter to Elise I think. I like all the singles from this, but huge blunder, in my opinion
@Zakalwe this and the new one are pretty close in quality in my eyes, but yeah, Songs just barely edges it out. This one you could play at the party without bumming everyone out, though, so it gets a few points.

Yep, I completely agree

Do NOT ask the DJ to play Warsong by goth/alternative rock band the Cure at the get-together. Worst mistake of my life!
Friday I'm in Love, though? Gets the place going every time.

I’m not a huge fan of guitar solos, but A Letter To Elise has possibly the finest one I’ve ever heard. Still, Doing the Unstuck would have made a better single.
