Pictures of You ... anyone who doesn't agree either hasn't heard it or is trying to be too cool to admit liking such a mainstream choice. :)

Never really been a big Cure fan, but this version of A Forest is definitely my favourite song of theirs.

I was happy to find it on Youtube, didn't think it would be there.

Eh. Not so much, and it's nothing to do with it being mainstream (I like Friday I'm in Love). They've made many better songs (IMO, of course)

Love Song

Just Like Heaven

Love Will tear Us Aprt

add love cats and killing an arab to that list... and i thought "love will tear us apart" was only a joy division song...


there are a ton of cure songs that i like a lot, all older stuff. once they hit mainstream it really affected their sound, not for the better.


edit:

was a joy division cover, never heard the cure version. not bad, but the original is way better.

Yeah, that was the only Cure album I ever owned. I really liked it.
