[Oklasunshine]

Beautiful song isn't it? Makes me think of my love Ben Britt 3

[SleepWhenIamDead]

.....Robert is really rockin the eyeliner during this time....he looks great......and sounds better.....

[Bripolarman27]

i love how i'm never disappointed with this band...the Cure is my lifeforce...

[southbeachdaze]

@bhagavanize couldn't have explained their music any better. may finding the beauty and sharing this pain be my cure. beautiful sadness. love this band. such 'feel-good' music

[atsstockburn]

I swear some of these long melodramatic riffs make Neil Young so happy. There has to be some influence there from Neil in the 80s.

[mrsolofeo]

Robert Smith made bad hair fashionable.

[theEdrye]

THE CURE.

[jsnale]

Bad sound

good Music.

[mrpicky510]

Just me or does Jason Cooper look a lot like Peter North?

[mitralyc]

@mrpicky510 maybe he was really Peter North

[jfelipe994]

[RufusLED]

perfection!

[drspock2]

Genialt......

[beforethree]

listening to this .. underneath the stars .

the essence of the Cure .. my fav band for ever .

[Foals4Life]

A song to die to

[Bhagavanize]

You like this band, but they look sad? LOL, if you really liked them, you´d know this "sad quality" is an absolutely essential part of their music. In fact, that´s exactly what is so loveable about them. Their "sad" songs have much more strength and intensity than the jolly ones will ever have. They are the real Cure for our disease... helping us find the beauty and share the pain from living in this sick world. The Cure forever!

[THISisMissMOOY]

@Bhagavanize

[billejoe56]

The only thing keeping me from loving this band is how dead they are on stage :/...if they wernt so like depressing looking i would absolutely love this band.

[hellchild65]

@billejoe56 you expect them to be like pathetic commercial slaves like Nickelback or the like yelling and telling people to jump around or launching fireworks for no reason? i dont see how this is a poor stage presentation at all, it fits the music style they play

[billejoe56]

@hellchild65 ._. did i in anyway insult them or get mad? No, and dont attack the other bands they are obviously making more than you are. so STFU. i like this band but they look sad DEAL WITH IT OK? im not gunna have an arguement with a fucking child.

[hellchild65]

@billejoe56 you said they were bad live, i just commented disagreeing with you. your the one acting like a child over it telling me to stfu and "DEAL WITH IT!" and "they make more money then you!" (last one makes no sense because money isnt the issue, many people make more money then me and problly vast majority of ppl on this site), id say your the one who is the child here

[billejoe56]

@hellchild65 wow your an absolute idiot i never said they bad live.whatever. fuck off you wont be happy till your "Right"

[cmclsrnsee]

@billejoe56 I know u discussed this with a guy already but u gotta understand that this isnt punk music, what do u want them to do, start jumping and screaming to a song like this?they dont move alot because they are feeling the song, and a band should be judged mainly by the music that they make, so its kinda weird that u dislike a band just because they dont move alot on stage...

[daniushko]

He is so cute, so nice, so,,, great, still and forever!

[nonconformistt]

Sublime

[staind531]

after a long night ..this song will be the only one that i can listen to during that comedown!

[Mrlja5555]

Whoa, pure beauty

[CAMARO30082]

THE CURE RULES! TAKE THAT JUSTIN,BRITNEY,CHRISTINA,TAYLO­R, ETC. (:>)

[baconnathan1]

they touched the heavens above and beyond.something all of you experience once in a lifetime.bands like this should stay.huh the cure should be written in history.

[Chynaash]

I love them and they sound just a awesome as ever! They get better with age like fine wine. I can drink them all day and night.

[Picapica1968]

The best band of the world!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[km80120]

I have heard that Robert is kind of an a**hole, to other band members, But his Music speaks for itself! Usually geniouses are difficult for others to endure! THE CURE IS AWESOME! I have made some of my BEST and most Erotic memories with the cure. GOD LIFE WAS AWESOME IN 1986,7,8,9......94. Every single possitive memory from that time involves a Cure song or album...I Pray the next gen. has the Cure!

[mrpicky510]

There really was 3 versions of this same incredible song: to wish impossible thing, this twilight garden, and underneath the stars, they are pretty much the same song at different times of the band and each amazingly well done, I love them all

[DrErkencho]

someone said to me once that this guy couldn't sing. Oh well... what's left to humankind if we can't appreciate this peice of art for what is worth... The cure is just Magical.

[staind531]

The Essence copied The Cure SSOOOOO MUCH

[WWEFalcon]

@staind531 The Essence found a lot of inspiration from The Cure. The Cure is the greatest band ever, so why wouldn't you be inspired by them. I wouldn't go as far as to say they copied them though. The Essence is great in their own way.

[staind531]

@WWEFalcon True, I do like both bands so I'm not going to argue:)

[WWEFalcon]

@staind531 Yeah, I wasnt trying to start an argument or mouth anyone. But yeah, both bands are two of my favorites. (The Cure IS my favorite.)

[staind531]

@WWEFalcon They are great

[Nadpodobok]

przebeautiful

[deoliveira123]

I got high one day on one of those nights,and I decided to play this song...It was one of the best moments of my life

[Miggler1212]

Genius! the closest band to the cure is the catholic comb. Thats like my generations version of the cure sucks nobody really knows about them

[staind531]

@Miggler1212 hahahah no

[guyanaboi122]

magical

[bachir62300]

sa c est un super groupe que j ecoute depuis l age de 15 ans meme que j ai pris de l age le l ecoute toujour avec un grand plaisir ce groupe

[dano555666]

Greatest musician of our generation.

The day Robert leaves this world will be a sad day for me. Knowing that one of the truly scarce, great things on this planet has left.

That's why it's our duty, as the current generation to cast aside mediocrity, push for the stars for quality and integrity in what we do. For me, that's music, so that other people one day can maybe listen to my generation, like I listened to robert, and sit in hope at 2:30 in the morning, at how long this will continue for.

[ILearn2PK]

@dano555666 Even tho Robert probably will leave this world one day (strange if he diddn't) his music will still be here on this earth forever and ever! :D

[DrErkencho]

@dano555666

specially INTEGRITY, I mean this guys would have never been whom they are would have they followed stupid managerial advices like the ones band cast for today. I mean, they could have made even much much more money than they did but they kept their style and core structure and performing level thru time, they've made ever better records each time and continue to perform live like the great band they'll always be. "Chapeaux" to Mr Smith and the crew, you are true artists.

[murouabu]

this is the best music ever for me! i love this song!

[MyDearRazorBlade]

i may be only 18 but i love this band

[mankowskee]

@MyDearRazorBlade  nobody care

[MyDearRazorBlade]

@mankowskee obviously you care or you wouldnt have commented. :)

[AMightyBigDan]

@MyDearRazorBlade

what does your age have to do with loving the greatest band ever? :P

[BurtaDiddley73]

Get the audio from this song at soundnabber doht cohm.

[dsvedberg]

This song is beautiful. Really. Especially when you're tired like I am right now

[ipromisetoremember]

@jochn666 don't brag! haha

[jbenko100]

Great video and song! Certainly my favorite off 4:13. The version in the Underworld soundtrack is really cool too!

[MoniRokse]

Existent Asian beautiful girls dating busizz4me.info

[ipromisetoremember]

it must feel amazing to see that live!

[jochn666]

@ipromisetoremember it does ;)

[BJZnRPZ]

i disagree with with the highest rated comments, the album disintegration was a great album that you could just play the whole thing in the back ground while chillin out and every song was good. These songs are a good evolution of the Cure but not the BEST of the cure by far.

[pacure]

@BJZnRPZ

off course is NOT the best cure song ever.

There are many other far far better than this one.

[ThatOneIdiotWeHate]

@BJZnRPZ Oh, but Pornography is far better then Disintegration!

[BJZnRPZ]

@ThatOneIdiotWeHate i definitely love porn, you are right. GD a curvy figure dancing to this song naked and a few beers is like heaven.

[azulejo89]

that's my robert!!.....travelling

[VolcanoInAntarticaHa]

This is the kind of music than can relax me, and just totally make my mind travel to an other perfect universe. It like takes everything bad away for 7:00 minutes!

<3 The Cure <3

[randomopedia]

@VolcanoInAntarticaHa well, for me it's 7:01 minutes.

[47shakran]

Un tema realmente increíble me pone de la cabeza ,me transporta,una banda impecable grande Robert!!!!!

[PENGUINP94]

where the fuck was the applause?

[vjm3]

I'm sorry I just want to attack his hair with a comb and Paul Mitchel conditioner.

Nice song, I've never heard these guys sing before this. Pretty chill.

[phantomlord91]

@vjm3 Hellno! O_O

[massimomiliano1]

[massimomiliano1]

@thecirkus approvo ciao

[wislard]

[Manisora]

I love you.

[beforethree]

its more painful when you broke up with girlfriend :'(

[blackviolets1]

soooo soothing!!

there are many great voices, but only a few that can carru such emotion as robert smith can.

if the soul had a voice when it cried adn hurt it would sound like smith

[andreeadm2511]

speechless...

[dekindin]

The Cure... amazing...

[onetim3wonder]

robert, thank u for all this great musik, ty

[cosmicnights]

I can die now.

[bones1647]

i agree with tytreer from the post of 10 months ago

Robert is a musically genius

[salvib10]

the maestro robert smith incredible

[XxTraBenxX]

This is one of my favorite songs by them. I own all the albums by the Cure and I don't really like anything after Wish but this album changes my mind on that. I don't know... there is something about it. It's like mixing the 1989 disintegration cure with Robert being in his 50's. It's just really good. It's perfect.

[IamAwakey]

Where is the love button????

[zazz63]

i like this a lot but i just cant shake off cortez the killer by niel young.. if you like this and you dont know what im on about look it up!

[mrpicky510]

@leonjordison, the guitar player is Porl Thompson, who left the band in the mid 90's to tour with Page and Plant. He was an original member from the early days and is actually married to Robert's sister...great musician

[ancatitorov]

mai copii, e muzica? nu?

[Gigunnie]

THX for give it in to my audio viso world

[rakeintheleaves]

This was the only song I enjoyed from the new album...probably because it feels like Disintegration and Bloodflowers. But I was mesmerized for every moment of the show of their 2008 tour. That's when I really know it's an amazing band (idea?), Robert Smith's an amazing artist...that even those songs that I don't really listen to on the studio albums, I absolutely adore them when I'm there, hearing them live. Anyway, I think it's time for me to revisit 4:13 Dream...lol

[morelgungo]

@rakeintheleaves yah def, 4:13 dream grew on me a lot. took a few times of listening to it for me to see how much i really liked it.

[mrpicky510]

@littleemoboy001. It's a schecter Robert smith model...go figure, he designed it about ten years ago. It really carries the sound of his old fender VI bass which is discontined

[fabixyard]

The cure is one of those things that make this world still worth to live in

[mikol58]

I miss my Johanna...

[LittleEmoBoy001]

What kind of fuckin guitar is he using here?

[dvpnke]

my school did 'a midsummer nights dream' and we had a 'dumb show' at the begining of the play, and this was the opening song. the fairies danced to it and played out what was going to happen in the play. it was awesome. i love this song.  so many memories come with it.

[strangegirlpa]

this song will be played at my wedding!!!!!!! 

[beshba]

it's things like these that make me forget that we've come to the dark age where justin bieber can conquer the world, where as artist like the cure i writing music that makes you think and mainstream artist today just deliver literal sense to everything because the listeners are too stupid to think about what real lyrics mean.

[Leitmotivation]

@beshba the masses are stupid. it's the same for about 3000 years... :-(

[21love4ever]

I love this song so much. I made an abstract painting and wrote these lyrics on the back of and kissed it with red lipstick, then gave it to my boy friend. He means the world to me and this song was the perfect words to let him know that

[vivelavidarocka]

I was at this show.

[carlybea]

I just love them.

[ironguru777]

I am age 49 and just discovered The Cure. Their sound makes me "feel" good inside and out. Very good stuff...thank you.

[zimmcat]

wow he is old as fuck

[amerattila]

this is beyond the indescribable...

[caryndude]

he still looks like a little timid kid through all those years and make-up

[SurvivingParis]

Rob is a legend yes...but I disagree with him being the possible last rock poet...I agree there are very few, but claudio from coheed and cambria is by far a great rock poet...all of their songs are about a concept. He almost writes ballads instead of songs. Its amazing. This song is so good, so atmospheric...

[spidermannys]

jason cooper is the worst drummer in Cure history!

[lilybleuify]

Rob maybe is the last rock poet... love you!

[21love4ever]

I love Robert. He's so high and drunk he forgot some of the words to the song.

[Boomer49640]

Robert Smith still crazy still making gr8 music

[VisionsOfScion]

no dude its quan chi from moral kombat hahaha!

[dm5056pd]

i think Porl and Billie Corgan have the same stylist!

[luisdoaz]

Excelent.

[darkrebel09]

Robert , your voice make any song sounds just AMAZING

[ibrokeitdidnti]

This song is incredible. One of the best from 4:13. If anyone is looking for the whole show, curecolours com has this entire show for download in audio (and a ton of other ones).

[JokerHimself]

Love the song, but its so sad that Robert still wears his make up xD it looks .. disturbing and childish xD

[bolangkongan]

@JokerHimself trademark and u should know dot

[TheSimonforde]

fucking savage!!!

i was at the mtv live coco cola thing in rome and when they played this it was amazing.best band everrrrrrrr

[electronicmedium]

great song

[Ataraxicosis]

I FUCKIN love the way porl looks!!!

[sexybrunette951]

i love this song! the cure forever & ever!!!!

[necronominate]

the guitarist with the shaved head looks killer*

[Skatingisgood]

I love this song. It reminds me of Disintegration.

[ooviedoc]

Does anyone know what's the instrument Robert is playing? Looks like the Ultracure but it's not the "standard" black one and sounds like a Bass VI (actually he uses this one also for playing Pictures of You)

[greyagain]

@ooviedoc

it is an ultracure (custom made fro Robert only)

Cheers!

[F3FisGoodforYou]

@greyagain It's actually made by Schecter... but I agree Robert certainly play a custom version of it :-)

Amazing song, the best of the album... but I still wait for an album as great as Desintegration or Bloodflowers...

[lctrout]

Anyword on them coming to the states this summer?!?!?!

[Takac1979]

Amazing!

[mariannaf84]

my dream!!!

[greyagain]

our (cure-fans) dream...

[speedbird144]

They cured themselves up to immortality!

[wildmoodswings1]

Still the most amazing band ever!!!

[iluvameriduh]

[ratayska]

[vampin6]

YYYEEEEAHHH!!!!!

[Inresurrection]

Best Cure song ever.

[abbondanzieriJR]

agreed... its amazing.

[MELLSBAD]

@Inresurrection So many good songs. How can one decide?

[armouredamazon]

Great band!

[MARCELSSILVER]

genius!!! great band of the world!!!

[MegaMitchell07]

This song pretty much imitates the sounds in my head while being in love with a girl...things went bad...I wish they didn't...but this song is too big for words...

[Attackfor]

The Cure to compare? With what? This song is so extraordinarily personal, it´s eerily beautiful. Thanks, thanks..........

[BatGirl2Vatican]

This is an excellent "Live" version of Underneath the Stars ! It's such a gorgeous piece and highlights the bands evolution as artists....The Cure rules the Rock World....

[AlmigthyIsDead]

Robert manages to look pretty young despite being 50+ now, which is pretty kool. I wish i'd never found out that hair was a wig though :P
