the cure - lovecats

[x0janine0x]

My favourite Cure video, definitely. Gotta say that Robert Smith looks pretty handsome in this video....

[RozzFuckedValor]

Yeah he does, what the hell happend?

[WWEFalcon]

What year was this?

[ala1238]

1983

[Outoflunch]

[EyraGarou]

Umm...lots of dead cats. -_-

[DD43355]

[saphira1001]

[Carmudgeon27]

[MYCHEMICALKITTYCAT]

[persianpopprincez7]

...the pianist is ugly

[MiaMonster96]

Laurence isn't ugly.

[MicrophoneFarmer]

Quiet, you. They're all gorgeous.

[catlover1001]

"Let's go and throw all the songs we know..."

This song is what Robert Smith came up with when he got tired of The Cure being called a Goth band. He kind of resents that this became such a big hit, because it's not the sound he prefers for The Cure. But it's still an amazing song.

And Robert Smith is just so... yummy. His music, his voice, his looks... Mmm mmm good!

[MiaMonster96]

well said friend.

[MicrophoneFarmer]

Ohmygooooodness!

Robert looks so adorable right at the end when he's running in circles with the camera!

[MeGaNmOoReHaRdY]

GUYLINER AHAH

[NecroWhore]

Pure happiness= Love Cats.

[TiCup]

This used to be my favorite Cure song, and my favorite Cure video. Memories!

[shuichifucker]

: D !!! everythin is good about the song + clip

[chakll]

PERFECT!

[Angel89OnEarth]

Haha I love his quirky way of dancing!

[AleReiiez]

amo esta cancion ! :D 1:13

[XxFlyleafxxFanxX]

this is one of my fav songs from the cure.

i love the vid clip too! its not like any of the other vids from the 80s!

Robert looks like someone that i have seen before.... crap what was it....

I remember now... the guy that plays as edward looks like Robert (lead singer)!... unfortately -.-

[fmtherad]

to flyleaffan:

edward scissor hands? thats who i think of!

[XxFlyleafxxFanxX]

yes! thats the one!

[bannabubbles]

i <3 the cure!!!!

[ChimourTheBatFurry]

Its like Panic!at the disco meets Billy Idol meets MCR to me.

I love it!!!!

And this first time i hear The Cure so i liked them automatically!!!!=D

[awsimo826]

Dont even compare the Cure to Panic at the dicko or my gay romance! way way way to good to be compared to those generic cookie cutter bands

[ChimourTheBatFurry]

Well sorry dude couldnt think of any other things they reminded me off =/

[Lorsbloodytask]

Lol.

Panic at the Dicko? My Gay Romance?

Talk about generic, lol.

I don't care if you don't like those bands, they aren't my favourite, but kudos for being just as generic as you say they are!!

[BrokenBananaPhones]

You're welcome.

[flyingcaballitos8]

I like this version better than the other one omg this was on NCIS thats where I heard it. Its funny cuz she's taking care of a dog when she's playing this song lol

[mimblewimble12]

miaow!!

[zezizoo]

i know they ripped it of this..... but cops and robbers by the hoosiers is so much better

[camille195]

love this song

[KittyBlahface]

This is defintely the best cure music video i've seen.

It's like a bizare mixture of the aristocats and cats the musical.

^^

[bilobong1]

ahhhh i just googled robert smith and theres sum really freaky pictures on there.... he looks a LOT nicer with hair like on this vid. luvin da luv cats!!! :D

[lovethatbass0]

You gotta love the piano player's expressions

[darkblackmonk]

[darkblackmonk]

yes exactly what i thought

[MrsDohertyA7X]

oh wow i just love this song

im only 14 but woah i love the cure!!

:O)

[flapjackd]

sarcasm bounces back and forth from the edges of the page.

[XxSarahxPanteraxX]

Lol,The cat attacked his hand at 1:30,I miss my kitties the ran of because my mom would wake up screaming at them in the morning when they were meowing to get out,Lol.

The Cure is awesome.

<3

[mevidek]

hehe, yes it did attack him.

[clickynikki666]

awhh he's so cute ^^

[HanrCanopener]

I heard a cover of this on Collin Murray's radio 1 show, but i looked in the track listings and can't find who did it. Does anyone know?

[Lampard8Ballack13]

The Futureheads have covered it, i know that.

[roberto0709]

Yes, original song isn't good, imagine how was it?

[cayly14]

i really like the futurehead's version, personally i think it's even better than the original

[flapjackd]

Fuck me slowly with a chainsaw, I think you're right. I wonder who copied who....?

[lillestat]

well obviously the hoosiers copied cos lovecats was written in 1983 and cops and robbers in 2007

idiots ¬_¬

[stupidfish111]

sounds a little like cops and robbers by the hoosiers

[alelvremy]

their videos are awesome! the cure is one of the best bands ever imo.

[chazzers77]

that piano player scares me

[bilobong1]

omg this song is soo catchy. you listen 2 it once in the morning and then u find urself singing it all day! lead singer still scares me though.... lol

[lotzsplotz]

lol i went a week with this in my head....... but i didnt know all the words so it was just sections of it playing over and over again in my head......

the lead singer is kinda creepy he is even creepier now.....

[STUNTS1516]

well he was a goth on acid he was naturally a bit weird but his songs were great :P

[mooseknuckles09]

i love this song i cant believe i just recently discovered it

[fathyvanek]

AMO THE CUREEEE (babas)

en especial esa cancion :P

[MicrophoneFarmer]

This video must've been LOADS of fun to make.

Just fucking around with stuffed cats and singing for hours.

[mmonkeyfan]

I LOVE this song, I have to learn a Jazz dance to it for my team. It is SO cute ~ We have to wear a cat suit though. Still one of my favorite songs EVER!

[AleReiiez]

i love this part 1:14

[marshmallowinnards]

1:16 - one lucky kitty!

[sqeebelee]

i have no idea why he stopped doing his hair like this and started doing that ratty birds nest thing

this was far more flatttering

great song

[PequenaAlice]

because then he would be one more common guy

[STUNTS1516]

nah i like the awesome messy kinda hair more

[deejaydubla]

still one of my favorite Cure songs

[poandjak]

Y r there cats that look like they are stuffed everywhere?!?!?

[sqeebelee]

really?

you're asking that seriously? haha

its because there ARE

a bunch of stuffed cats everywhere

its much cheaper and easier to use stuffed cats

do you really think three cats are going to dance in a line on top of a piano by themselves? nahhh

haha

[mmonkeyfan]

It is called love cats, they can''t use too many real cats probably.

[AirportMonkey]

I'm really confused about cure fans who didn't buy this single just because it was "poppier" than all their other stuff.

[mootallica]

It's got Stand Up to.

[AirportMonkey]

Stand Up?

[mootallica]

Bass

[AirportMonkey]

Ah, i got ya

[aimeemacdn]

Hand in hand is always the way to land, always the right way round.

[juliasheills]

i la la la love love lovecats!

[kisamefishyface]

robert smith is hot and i <3 this song

[Hybrid933]

Trust me, he's not hot now D:!

But still a great song :)

[absolution8]

is it wrong that i actually really like this song...?

[Hybrid933]

no D:

[Smownage]

C&R is very similar to this song. I thought it the moment I heard it. FreshAsKritiBoy is dumb. FairyGirl is obviously joking because I doubt the co-producer of Trick To Life is Robert Smith's sister, who also happens to 16 years old. FairyGirl is also dumb. But KritiBoy is very dumb

But... Cops & Robbers is exactly the same as this song...

haha

[FreshAsKritiBoy]

Haha, thanks Smownage but I don't think it takes much brains to work out that we were only playing around.

Awesome song.

[XXILoveAMrotek7XX]

I'm totally in love with this song!! I'm stuck in the 80s and that's kind of funny considering i was born in the mid90s. lol

The Cure rocks!

[DementisVenustas]

Robert Smith and The Cure are amazing. <333

This is the best double-suicide love song in the world. The Cure is one of the best -bands- in the world. =)

[honeyluv619]

Robert Smith looks totally cute in his video. Makes you just want o back to the concert all over again. Get your grove on ROBERT!!!! he is such a freak in the sheets.

[mitsuki3322]

yay my favi song and video

[KodiacPanda]

Chill the fuck out and enjoy the damn song. Geez.

[Hardcore1172]

I agree with FreshAsKritiBoy, and tbh, I think if The Hoosiers recorded 'Cops & Robbers' at the same time as The Cure recorded this they would sound awful.

Lukcily for the hoosiers there's such thing as advanced music mix mastering.

[TrapperCas]

Sad bastard

[FairyGirl69hahaTasha]

FreshAsKritiBoy, if thats even your real name, i find myself terribly amused by your ignorance. Another reason that I can be sure The Hoosiers did not copy 'Lovecats' when they wrote 'Cops and Robbers' is because of the fact that as well as being a co-producer of 'The Trick To Life' I am the brother of Robert Smith, or Bobby-S as I call him, and not a day goes past when he doesn't say to me, "'Cops and Robbers' is nothing like 'Lovecats'". If thats not enough proof, then I don't know what is.

[FreshAsKritiBoy]

s'true though, the cure shouldn't ever be compared to something like the hoosiers.

watch the beginning of cops + robbers, irwin sparkes even uses that little robert smith 'ow' in his voice.

it makes me cringe a little, get some originality.

[FairyGirl69hahaTasha]

Well sir, I must admit that I find your primative comment highly entertaining. I am one of the producers of The Hoosiers' album, 'The Trick To Life', and I therefore bear no hesitation when it comes to informing you that 'Cops and Robbers' was written in assossiation with a tribe of Australian Aborigines who have never heard of The Cure, let alone Robert Smith and his 'ow'.

[shinnymissjenny]

love it this song was played on ncis!!

[taylorelder1]

the hoosiers cops and robbers has the same tune

[marcuslobodarus]

shut up... don't even compare anything the cure has done with the fuckin' hoosiers!! lol

[Jwatcher08]

Chill out

[marcuslobodarus]

don't tell me 2 chill out.. or al bust u up sickaly-big-tings-one-time-tru­st blud

[Jwatcher08]

Yeah ................Ok

[deathbychocolate3737]

i love robert smith :)

da best

[BCraingirl]

I think I like this song/video better than Close To Me, but they're real close

[SilverIsHere]

ultimate feel good song. hehe.

[MiLadyCutie9]

lshil the cats on top of the piano such a classic

[tdogg311]

my perro will shart on your gatos face!

[PotatoDeLasGalaxias]

vivan los gatos y las patatas¡¡¡¡¡

[LAGATASALVAJE69]

si!! querido potato vivan!!

[ssssDongossss]

ostia que feo es el gato yo tengo las orejas mas grandes buajajajajaja

[LAGATASALVAJE69]

[MasterOfPuppets88888]

i love this song and it has a mean bass line, best xD

[friendobrians]

"the cure" will all ways be robert smith,but it won't be 100% without simon,much like led zepplin was driven by john bonhams drums.don't ever leave simon.:}

[jackxcorerawr]

This is definatly my favourite song by The Cure!

Anyone who thinks that this songs sucks....well...in my humble opinion, you don't know much about good music (Y)

[MCRmydiehard]

Honestly.

Robert Smith could make a paper bag look good.

Oh excuse me, I'm about to faint.

[ThroughAMirrorDarkly]

...we would have each other with cream....

[ThroughAMirrorDarkly]

i love it! want that polka-dot shirt

[Babaretro222]

BANANA BANANA BANANA

[klingonbro99]

[mistressmaris]

[mistressmaris]

haha this vid is kooky

[rikulover911]

robert smith used to be good looking :O i had no idea!

*sigh*

he definently has not aged gracefully... what a shame

[ShuffleBass]

it's sad isn't it :(

[MCRmydiehard]

Look we all know it's true but can't you just let us pretend it's not?

It's much better that way.

[zeepsops]

I Love This Video <#

And I Like Little Kittens<3

(i still love them when they grow up)

[xxdoomedtowanderfoxx]

best bass line ever

[TSonMalice]

this is so trippy o_O

[littlecutiebuttercup]

this scares me

but its amazing :)

[meowzer999]

...wow I'll bet Robert Smith would consider your comment like the best compliment ever!

[D0llySh0t]

Oh man, I totally wish that videos looked like this today. So damn silly/awesome. =)

[wragtregt]

[RattleSnack]

He killed himself

[thedisabledguru]

[charmedonetwo3]

[thedisabledguru]

1:32 Aww the kitten tried to bite poor Robert!

[TECKMASSE]

GOOD CURE !

TECKMASSE

[elisabettascalera]

When you notice a cat in profound meditation, The reason, I tell you, is always the same: His mind is engaged in a rapt contemplation Of the thought, of the thought, of the thought of his name: His ineffable effable Effanineffable Deep and inscrutable singular Name.

Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats

T. S. Eliot

[phunkbot]

wow...theres actually a hell lot of similarity to the Hoosiers' Cops and Robbers (I've been reading wikipedia)....but I still like the Hoosiers' song more.

notable similarities are the intro and the general style of the song....but its slightly different in the style; the Hoosiers' song is harder and in my opinion more fun

[willyroberts]

its a good song, but the bass on this song just makes it far superior

[MikeGLEB]

Woah, I like metal head, but what a song!

[JackEnnis]

funny and amazing.....Kittahz!!!

[haylen08sara08]

... KIITY! =D

anyway's,

i love this song.

[charmedonetwo3]

[mhisk8isapunker]

Robert= Adorable in this video.

Like a cat adorable.

Lol.

[b4k4chan]

That's exactly what I was thinking! =D Makes me wanna dance with my kitties ^-^

[VelvetSun]

Oooh and dancing with kitties is fun!! :D

I love the stiff cat statue things that someones making move around on top of the piano XD

Theyre not stuffed though are they? 0_o

Anyhoo this video is maybe even more fun than Why Can't I Be You!! =0

[b4k4chan]

*needs to watch more videos of The Cure* >.>

Dancing with kitties IS fun! =D But ours are pretty wild, so they're hiss and scratch and run away if I try to... ._.'

[lollipopiskewl]

[dRUMsKELETON]

i love their little dance:P i love the style :)

[ellyunfortunetly]

Gna make a statement now:

Think this was before the term 'goth' even existed. So I guess you could say, it was way back when Goth-attracting bands didn't have to portray misery all of the time

[andiejanefisher]

The piano player is seriously weird looking

[TboneWillsone]

lol the piano player does look a little strange, still an awesome song.

[xPandabunnyx]

Haven't you seen him recently he looks grim ha ha

[lapoe1]

Not really, polish. But still Robert is Mine :D... He can be your boyfriend but I'm fucking him! just kidding./ I love The Cure so much!

[bohemclarinetti]
