@RajaMCool are you high? or have you just not listened to any of THEIR (not "They're") songs. Lovecats, Six Different Ways, Strange Attraction, Doing the Unstuck, Fire in Cairo, etc. None of them sound dark and sinister. You are entitled to dislike all those songs but why does everyone just assume every Cure song is dark. In fact Robert Smith and The Cure are are some of the most diverse musicians of the last 30 years.
although im one of the biggest blink 182 fans, i am also a big cure fan. i prefer the cure's version of this song because the song is supposed to be a soft slow song. thats the tone of the it. if you read the lyrics, youll realize thats how its supposed to be sung and played
i think blink 182 made it sound more accesible. like it's a guy and his band singing to his girl. this version sounds to me like something from a shakespeare novel.
i prefer the blink 182 version because it sounds closer to me.
@M090766J I love The Cure but dont dis Blink so much..... their version isnt better but its good... no need to be hateful.... and btw they r back together so I wudnt say they r long gone ;)
@M090766J Well i still remember them and seeing how they just got off a US tour and are coming up with a new album this year i dont think theyre gonna be "forgotten" soon.
And another thing. I was 100% sure that one of the "Highest rated comments" was gonna be about Blink...
PLEASE STOP COMPARING COVERS TO THE ORIGINAL. ITS STUPID!!!!
the cure being compared to blink 182!! thats obsurd The Cure is hands down a much better band ...their music goes way back to the late 70's and has stood the test of time.
@airmcnair78 your an arse clown, been an old band doesn't make you better than the rest, if blink 182 was around in the late 70's maybe their music would have also withstood the 'test of time' like The Cure has.
This for guitarGUNFIGHTxxx, why are you here??? And like Robert Smith would say... It doesn't matter what you say !!! So just stop with your crap because the fans here like myself happen to love Robert & The Cure !!! Now go away from here hater !!!
@guitarGUNFIGHTxxx i see absolutely no evidence that any of those 3 bands influenced the cure. skynyrd is glorified country music, the beatles are overrated and zeppelin is hard rock. the cure are punk/post-punk. and i can guarantee you that the cure had never even heard of skynyrd in their early days. its much more likely (more true) that they were influenced by Iggy Pop and The New York Dolls like all the other punk bands from the late 70's
@guitarGUNFIGHTxxx really? and why is that because its not your cup of tea? even if you dont like an artist the obviously have some talent otherwise they wouldnt have made money touched peoples hearts and keep fans long after they were even considered "popular" so dont tell me they suck and talk shit on the internet just to talk shit that makes you a pussy so go crawl back into your pop music death hole and do just that DIE
Really are you all retarded??? WTF.....There isnt any band on the earth that can compare to The Cure.....ive been a fan for 30 years...so you wana be prepubescent asses can f off!!!
a letter lo elise, mmm al escuchar esta cancion, me enamoro mas de ti, aunq la tera es un poco tragica, igual me recoore un gran sentimiento y enseuida pienso en ti.. TE AMO ELI..
Cuidado..El q mujer quiera enamorar debe hacerla despreciar, aunq sea un poquito de vez en cuando..Eso me dolió muchísimo, y lo aprendí haciendo exactamente lo contrario, y jamás la voy a olvidar.. Nunca las ponga en un nivel superior a todo,nunk les de todo, nunk la tenga como primera prioridad,tengala a su mismo nivel, véala como su igual, trátela con naturalidad, si algo le molesta, enójese.. Nunk la idealice, por más perfecto que sea..No le vaya a pasar lo de la canción, como a mí.
@osfbass Uh...no. Blink 182 have a recorded song with Robert Smith called "All Of This"
