The Cure - The Only One (Higher Quality) (Live 2008)

[Ronnie631000]

This is an excellent tune. My favorite Cure song. 

[guitargczr699]

Real men wear high-heels. LOVE PORL

[busteddon]

Awkward ending....

[ankmdankm]

i can see where the cure comes off as a trial blazer for every emo band that wants to be them

[makesdamoney]

damn what the hell happened to porl he looks like marilyn manson?!

[jjavelar]

I love the ending! I wish I was Robert Smith

[thereturnwoo]

I like this verson better than the album one I like the woooooo oooooo oooo oooooo bit XD frucking magic man

[mcdojoeable]

Mate, are you joking. A forest is not example of early Gothic rock, the song is far more related to early eighties synth music. Basic really. :/

[stillmoonmachine]

'gothic rock'  haha clueless

[DominaDP]

They're something too big to be attached to a lable so small.

Anyhow, it's a beautiful song. It's a pity Robert seems to forget or mistake the lyrics more and more often. I still hope to see them live someday

[Cyrraeve]

@DominaDP I wonder if he is changing them since this concert was on live TV. I know they get really picky about some things on american TV.

[DominaDP]

@Cyrraeve Most probably he is. He has intentionally re-written songs during live performances for ages.

[mikeemerylevesque]

is porl still married to roberts sister?

[catlover1001]

yup.

[Grindcore66613]

this song is amazing, live and on the album!

[Tashi0106]

I was there. Fuck yes!

[SpanishGirrrl]

Lucky you, I'd kill to see that band live!

[CVGshardraco]

lucky you!

[GLADish85]

Can I touch you? :) Seriously, I am jealous :x

[Blackvent1]

He's hurting. You can tell.

[BabiSere]

idk why but this song puts a smile on my face!! i like it so much, one of the bests in the new album!

[zicoskywalker]

Gret Show, Alows para os fãs do Brasil

[ionutzvirgil]

[salmansaeed92]

[ndreaftw1989]

Hah, how can people mistake the fucking CURE for EMO?

jesus.

do "emo bands" sing about love?

dont think so

[mafaldaportugalvfc]

lol... some do

like the smartpants my chemical romance

" i don't love you.. like i did yesterday..."

xD

[ndreaftw1989]

ahah.

true.

i meant.

do emo bands sing about happy happy love.?

aha

[Grindcore66613]

they're goth

[ndreaftw1989]

eh, i wouldn't say they are goth either- and neither would they

[Grindcore66613]

well, do you know the song A Forest? that shows a bit of their goth side. they were the founders of Gothic Rock

[ndreaftw1989]

Yeah, the founded the sound and look- most say. But they don't own up to it.Always sayin they dont want to be considered goth, bla bla.

[stillmoonmachine]

because GOTH is limited stupid and fucking dumb. The Cure were always about LIFE

[dannay]

they're new wave/post-punk.

[stillmoonmachine]

shut up

[buddhika216]

yup

[thatsoheartxcore]

Love them so much. this is my fav. song from their new album

[mirelavirgil71]

when in ROMANIA _CRAIOVA

[runitsthem]

(:

This is the best song ever.

[totallynotjonathan]

the cure isn't emo they were goth a long time ago now they're alternative

[SiolGhoraidh]

How on earth is this song about self pity?

You clearly haven't payed any attention to the lyrics, you prick.

It's sad that you've projected all your energy into hating stuff; trivial stuff at that, and even your username illustrates it. You poor thing.

[marcoteloco]

tengo 3 decadas de edad,soy un darky pero mataria un emo con musica de robertito ja ja jaaaaa me voy a pintar los labios ja jaaaaachao

[davidgilmour22]

arnaldodona...hermoso sentimiento eso me pasa cuando escucho buena musica, PINK FLOYD .... y the cure tb en otra escala

[MissEmMalicious]

I love this song and this band.

the Cure is one of my favorite bands. <3

They never cease to amaze me!

[BansheeChild]

Gotta love Porl Thompson with his high heels.

My friend tries to imitate Robert's but he can't. Mr Smith is just too unique.

[sbliar]

agreed

[sbliar]

Porl = Uncle Fester (Adams Family)

[tormatah]

:)))))

[skly24]

haha i thought that too, if only uncle fester played guitar rather well=]

[arnaldodona]

este es uno de esos grupos que me transporta a una epoca y situacion en donde todo era simple y perfecto, es una capsula en el tiempo, entra a traves de mi y me llena de felicidad.

[iamrta1]

rad.

[levenshon]

Sometimes its nice just to hear a simple upbeat song with positive energy from the Cure.

[DancingAngelicR]

YOURE THE ONLY ONE I CRY FOR THE ONLY ONE I TRY TO PLEASE YOURE THE ONLY ONE I SIGH FOR THE ONLY ONE I DIE TO SQUEEZE AND IT GETS HAZIER EVERY WAY I SWAY WITH YOU ITS SUCH A SCREAM YEAH IT GETS MAZIER EVERY PLAY I SAY WITH YOU ITS SO EXTREME YEAH IT GETS CRAZIER EVERY DAY I STAY WITH YOU ITS LIKE A DREAM Oh I LOVE Oh I LOVE Oh I LOVE WHAT YOU DO TO ME

[greyagain]

i do prefer the live version of it (SWI'mD also)

[claudiasometimes]

I have to say that this song sounds stupid on the album version, but live sounds more like the cure...

[claudiasometimes]

wow, when I firt heard this song I was feeling sad because I thought the cure had lost the touch... but played live is really good... wow... I'm really impressed...

[knucklezrp]

They've made songs like this for decades...

[claudiasometimes]

Sure, for decades... that's why I sometimes don't like to hear them repeting themselves. Well, the cure is great, we can't errase the past...The good times...

[camikbnh]

This version is better than the studio one...

[mimejornick]

this song is great played live!

[omifishcakes]

This song is adorable. makes me smile so much.

[kendemyx9]

porl has nice pair of shoes... hahhaha

[fleeperzonk]

Yeah I took my brother to see The Cure and we couldn't believe Porl's outfit/make-up. He probably thinks I'm a freak lol.

[claudiasometimes]

POrl hs alwas been pretty odd! (and probably my brother thinks we all are freaks...)

[JustCamus]

Thank you for posting these!(: That's very kind of you.
