    really good, a true expression of 80's goth movement, prehaps one of the best bands ever to come out of britain, and i'd definately stick them up there, because they are the cure, theres no one else quite like them...

    The Cure gives me ecstasy "flashbacks".

    i was listening to "Catch" once, totally drug free, and i smiled so hard that my eyes watered up and i started to feel really weird... so i had to stop listening

    that's one of the more extreme incidences... i can't listen to the cure too closley without feeling like i'm about to roll... wich means i shouldn't listen while driving, seriously...

    it's kinda neat though... and as i understand it, The Cure's songs are inspired by ecstasy a lot.

    I love how they just suck all the life out of you when you listen to them. It's great. The only band that can change my mood so suddenly.

    On the other hand, what about songs like "doing the unstuck"? That's so motivating and positive!

    Id say half is depressing and half not. I like the cure most of all bands probably bec they have something neat in every song that wasn't there before, probably cause some of the drums are hypnotizing, and probably cause they remind me of many many many things I went through while listening to them (and now they do the same to my bf heheh..)

    hey I do think that they did E too.. cause they sing about it a lot.. like that song about the lightning.. whats it called.. its on the kiss me album, I think no10, but anyway..

    haha yea it's called "Hot Hot Hot!!!"

    http://www.musicfanclubs.org/cure/lyrics/hothothot.html

    "Catch" always flips me out...

    And sometimes we would spend the night
    Just rolling about on a floor
    And I remember
    Even though it felt soft at the time
    I always used to wake up sore

    before i'd done E i sorta just assumed they were refering to sex or something but no... it's quite literal.

    You know I even think that she smiled like you
    She used to just stand there and smile
    And her eyes would go all sort of far away
    And stay like that for quite a while

    i like The Cure cuz they're good with emotions but they're not emo bitches. ...i hates emo bitches.

    hey I see it now too... hmm...

    true I think its the lyrics though that produce the emotions (cause.. the music does sound like 80's.. but good stuff it is)

    Everything before that first kiss and the beautiful spiral downward is the Cure to me. It's hopelessly awkward, sweet and unsettling, wonderfully desperate love......"cut here" baby....I seen them in atlanta for curiosa and it made me feel like I was a kid again...I wanted to grab a girl and walk around hand in hand and just wonder about her and life and love...well ya know....its good to love and appreciate all facets of music...you label yourself you limit yourself

    i dont think the cure are serious about that "sad teenager" stuff. i think he's too busy grinning with that silly lipstick on really.

    and you cant say the cure are depressing music for teenagers, when you then have a picture of ian curtis in your signiature, who killed himself coz he was stuck with his wife while being obsessed with Nazis. A really sick bastard really.
