my favorite cure album, is "Kiss me, kiss me, kiss me"
... a beautiful, eery, peek into Robert Smith ... slow and soulful.
Some upbeat tracks,
LIke: "why can't I be you"
well, let me tell you why ... just be you, its enough.
A common theme, like my first drug-me-into-the-Robert-Smith-lyrical-world .... "Jumpin' someone else's train"
had it recorded on an 8-track. Yes, ladies and gents ... I played the cure, on a flippin eight track and was pretty freakin' proud
to have recorded it on an eight-track recorder, from a bootleg, of a radio station airing college tunes of the time ...
my friends were flabbergasted at this "shit" ... I thought it was the best friggin' music
Pretenders ("eh"), Cars ("yuk"), ... but I listened to the Cure and was hooked.
