Robert Smith interview 1984

[MissCureCrazy]

Oh he is sooo hot!

[TheDragonsMouth]

4:32...Please what did he say? :-D

[Shishkaraz]

@TheDragonsMouth "See? It's showing! You could have said I was 17 last year."

[TheDragonsMouth]

@Shishkaraz Thank you very much! :-)

[TATAIRI]

¡Cuánto te amo! ¡¡Te amo todo, PRECIOSO!! <3

[CxHavok]

Dear lord....nothing, and no one is more beautiful and talented. He will be forever heavenly.

[alexmejia26]

I am a dude, straight, and I am not afraid to say that Robert is indeed cute, a real genious, a rock legend and I totally love him.

[beatles61]

he's been talking about giving up music forever, I remember watching an interview in like 97 and he said it was their last tour... thankfully not.

[interestedinalwayskn]

Oh precious Baby! ....

[JJJJJJJJDDDDDD]

How is Lovecats Commercial exactly? It's amazing! I don't think there is anything like it! Stupid interveiwer, he is so insulting.

[avrillavignefaandlov]

he's cute '-'

[Rockguitarhero462]

lovecats: A Cure moment that we'd all like to forget. lol.

[SerbeanStonesun]

His voice is just so soft,the butt chin haha

[Pulseczar1]

The butt chin is now in full-fruition. Did he ever have plastic surgery? Where did that thing come from? Look at him in 82. watch?v=wNxZgy4IeM0 No butt chin.

[LaHoraDelMal]

@Pulseczar1 ????? what the hell are you saying?

[Pulseczar1]

@LaHoraDelMal Well, I said he had a butt chin in this video. Then I asked whether he ever had plastic surgery. Then I asked where the butt chin came from, because he didn't have it in the following video from 1982: watch?v=wNxZgy4IeM0. It's probably the lighting from the side that makes his butt chin highly visible.

[LaHoraDelMal]

@Pulseczar1 Hi, yes i think was the light, cos he always has had dimple chin

[Padumor89]

I love Robert when he's talking its Incredible see that him mind is so brightness!!.. I love u robert , i love THE CURE!

[BennyMazzettaXD]

I would kill just to hear his voice... <3 love the way he seems so shy!

[nirvana77792]

he seems shy....he is sooo cute!!! love him!! <3

[BoopBopBeeBop]

he loves dogs ^__^

[Headcaase]

@dwc311 Why even put the two side by side? Of course I'd rather fuck Robert Smith!

[dwc311]

@Headcaase lol hell ya i agree. lmao this question was targeted to heterosexual men haha idk what u are . still a stupid comment tho haha. Your right, why even put the two side by side? Ya stupid i comment i think im gonna delete it .

[GermanPeoplePerson]

he's such a quiet bloke! he's not all full of himself like most of the modern artists. good times, the eighties.

[RocketNoodles001]

@GermanPeoplePerson Thats the Amazing thing about Robert Smith Hes so shy back then, but on the stage he just shows his true self . :)

[safelydead]

Oh robert!

[TheOwlking1996]

So adorable:3

[yamilayes13]

oh my love!!! <3

[theunhappyhours]

I'm glad he made it those extra nine years, and then some :)

[greengal29]

i just started lisening to the cure, and i know that he's probably.. older than he was in this interview.. but gosh, he's just too cute! in that awkward shy kind of way <3 (:

[twarilyn]

@greengal29 He's fifty two as of a few days ago... :) Still love him though:)

[strangeday21]

the most handsome and wonderful thing I've ever seen!

[chantelle5219]

hes so cute i wanna give him a big cuddle and kiss xo love you robert

[horrorinrepose]

if he was a prostitute no price would be too high

[BeatnikFromHell666]

How many corporate cocks he sucked to get the ass chin?

[TheLiquified]

@BeatnikFromHell666 Jealous (;

[LaHoraDelMal]

@BeatnikFromHell666 fuck uuuuuuuuuu!!! ass HOLEEEEE

[savagecircle63]

I wish they would have stopped after the album WISH, that in my humble opinion was the last decent album they made. Disintegration was the highest point by far though.

[gimmeshelter72]

@savagecircle63 - Bloody right you are ! - Disintegration was the last what felt like complete and thought out record they released and Wish i think was already rehashing ideas he'd already issued over the previous records and after wish oh man it just all sounded horrible

[illmsg77]

fuckin gross!!! stuffed cats

[clockworkharry]

and he palyed in the group for another nine years lol more than nine years

[TravelAtmosphere]

"There will be no Lovecats follow up" haha Lovecats is one of my all time favs from the Cure, one of their best tracks

[guitargczr699]

I'd like to see Robert with his hair down...if that's possible haha.

[guitargczr699]

I'd like to see Robert with his hair down...if that's possible haha.

[kriptonitekaya]

Its to bad they didn't do anything like love cats again. Oh I love his voice

[AtticPhace]

I have been expecting a very important call for the past 5 hours...do you have any idea how much 0:11 pissed me off?

[LunaSeaSane]

Great Interview, actuallay.

[Goingbeach]

I want Robert Smith for Christmas, Please Santa?:)

[ipromisetoremember]

'I'm getting too old'.. said that when he was 25 and he's 51 now and still going (':

[Sapphirepearlz]

"I'm gettin' too old..." Oh my heavens he's so adorable and I don't care how old he is, he is just beautiful and such a fantastic musician thank God he never gave it up.

[Criszzilla]

Aw...no "Love Dogs" follow up? Lol.

[Criszzilla]

Did he say, "With a capital C in the END"? I thought the c was at the beginning...

[FuckTheFuckingSchool]

I agree with his opinion that live albums should sound ruff,if they don't its just not live for me :).

[maggi177]

in 84 he clearly didn't have any idea he'd still be doing this not just 9 more years, but nearly 30 more...

[metronomic1]

Theres a darky!

[Criszzilla]

@metronomic1  ?

[Sleazymush]

@Criszzilla

I think she was trying to write what Robert said in that part.

[Tinewashere]

4:43 - 4:45

I'dhidehidhehide.. <3

Gotta love him. :)

[Criszzilla]

@Tinewashere  Lol.

[capsfanintahoe]

lmao at that music video....awesome

[PuddleDolphin12345]

awww soo cute :) i could listen to him talking for hours.. :D LOVE ROBERT!!!

[IIIIdepechemodeIIII]

they had a crackhead in the band? hmm.

[Criszzilla]

@IIIIdepechemodeIIII Tsk Tsk Tsk.

[MackerelCat]

Slinky indeed.

[LemonyChagall]

Jesus, what a handsome man.

[pinkthunderwonder]

he is so sweet it hurts .. beautiful soul

[SeriouslyRandom20]

i luv how he saids he is getting to old but 26 years later and he still in the cure :P

[pinkerton324]

you the best



[RockinBlues4]

he's too cute, i wanna kiss him

[Larukuislove]

he always says that of every line up XDD

[musicaddict10000]

i want to be the age of 25, in the year 1984, and married to robert smith!!!! really, really, really, really, really, bad!!!!!!

[closermix]

@musicaddict10000 I want that too, ha ha

[musicaddict10000]

@closermix who doesnt??? lolol well guys... unless their gay...

[TheBrassHole]

Oingo Boingo wunnabe's. Only problem is, he's no Danny Elfman. Still like them though.

[KOLCUREKILLERSNIN]

just gorgeous!!!

[abbielovesoasis]

he was reely hot when he was younger now i think he should maybey brush the hair and lose some of the make up but stil verry cool guy

[hayzel96]

i'm glad that he did'nt stop and did contiue with singing but i wonder why he did change his mind and went on to perform still at the age of 51?

[pipperoooo]

@hayzel96 Because he is still better (at 51) than the crap coughjustinbeibercough that is out there now. That's why.

[hayzel96]

@pipperoooo

I agree with you, but still i just wonder what his personal reasons were coz i dt think he would even know or care who justin beiber is!

[pipperoooo]

@hayzel96 I think what makes Robert brilliant is the fact that he absorbs everything but rarely talks about anything. So yeah, I think he knows who he is. He has 26 nieces and nephews. I'm sure he does.

[musicaddict10000]

@pipperoooo yeah your right he is better then all the crap out there now (aka justin beiber)

[MrsGothicDaisy]

Woow. He is so beautiful and his voice is so great...

[xXLazarus23Xx]

He's so gorgeous!

[ZoMbIxOxO]

Well... Good thing he continued.

[oeyvind93]

he looks normal!

[bitterfly77]

Does anyone know what the music is that starts at 6:52 - i.e. the very last few seconds of this video? I doubt it has anything to do with the Cure. I think it's just the closing music for this particular series. If anyone can identify it for me, I'd be very appreciative!

[18bobcats]

@bitterfly77 The song you hear is part of Malcolm McLaren's version of Madam Butterfly from the CD FANS.

[bitterfly77]

@18bobcats Thank you!!!

[darkforest121]

Oh man, i just love Robert here. He could just not be more sexy here indeed. His smile , his eyes !! I just love him !! He just makes me melt with that smile for sure!! Robert is just amazing!! There is no one like Robert!! He is truly one of a kind and the most gorgeous man alive indeed!! If i could just climb through this computer screen and just hold him, wow, how wonderful that would be!! ILY Robert for 26 years now and forever!! <3

[caterpillargirl84]

my favourite interview of anyone ever...

[laurasbotanicals]

it's like he is truly a very shy person, and when he is playing or singing he is able to express himself. He looks down when he's talking... it's cute. I like shy! because it's so different than me!

[ACureIsLove]

He's so adorable <3__<3

I want to eat his face :P Cause he is so cute :3

[BarbarossaFrigyes]

Lol i searched for my phone at the beginning!

I tought i was getting a call..

[paulusmctallus]

loved the early cure stuff but after love cats it went pair shaped and so did his nostrils!

[watchensee]

So he thought he was getting too old at the age of 25! Ha that's young in human years! I was 4 years old when this interview aired.

[watchensee]

Oh isn't he handsome! {)

[sowhat137]

haha he said he didn't think he would be performing in nine years:)

[CharlieeChainsaww]

Awwhh he's just so adorable.... The Cure are just amaziing

[simionTheOne]

did he just say that was the ultimate live line up >:I

u need simon mate!

[wildmoodswings1]

I just love listening to him :)

[juniebird72]

OMG Robert you are just so cute here, so gorgeous! You always have been . I have loved you for 24 years now and i know it will never change. 25 old? Ha! Still a youngster and absolutely fabulous! I love you robert. No one compares to you ever! ILY Robert!

[DWINC]

how come there is cell phone static in the beginning....It is 1984???

[TRIGG911]

conspiricy

[350637553]

omg he is so cute in this interview

he was 25 at that time and said he's getting too old to make music ^^ :D

[ACureIsLove]

@VikaVodka:

It's called 10.15 saturday night.

From the album 'Three imaginary boys'

[stephenp1968]

I definitely agree. As far as I'm concerned, no band I've heard is a patch on The Cure.

[carlybea]

<3 Long live the Cure. Best band I've ever heard.

[VikaVodka]

What song are they playing starting at 2:43? I'm a new Cure fan so please don't flame me. Thank you.

[azalem]

That song is called 10:15 Saturday night, if you are new on the cure you should hear the compilations "Staring at the sea" and "Galore". Later you should try to listen Disintegration, their masterpiece, and almost all cure is pretty good!

[VikaVodka]

Thank you so much!

[ACureIsLove]

10.15 saturday night from the album 'Three imaginary boys'.

[warminator]

and now they`re still on 25 years later.... Remarkable!

[pollywannacracka]

what kind of guitar is that at 4:00 ?

[stbiloute]

Epiphone EA 250 .... Made by Aria (late 70's)

[velvetcat]

I love all of The Cure. But there's just no-one that can put the jingle in my ningle like Robert Smith can

[rAbIDMCRgurl]

Even Robert didn't predict the Cure going on for over 30 years. Long live the Cure. Love love love forever.

[yamilayes13]

HE AND ALL THE BAND ARE GREAT !!! BUT i love roberttttt!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[louiscfc93]

why do people just go on and on about him.listen to the band fs not just him

[wdxdino]

well yes the band is great but people go on and on about him because he wrote the bloody songs didnt he. and hes charming

[Jakegothicsnake]

What I don't understand about Robert with te drug thing, that if he's been knwn to dabble in substances throughout his career, why hasn't he like succumbed to addiction, or been sent to rehab, or anything like that??

[Waitingforriki]

Not everyone who dabbles in drugs ends up in rehab..You are obviously very young? Smith way well have been to rehab but how would you know if he did? Not everything done by celebs ends up in 'heat' you know?

[Jakegothicsnake]

I'm not very young. I'm only 20 years old.

Please don't be patronizing about me not being very savvy about drugs and people who use them.

[bitterfly77]

@Jakegothicsnake 20 years old is very young. :) Embrace your youth! In about 5 years, you'll start to see the speed of time magically shift against your youth.

As far as his drug use is concerned, like Waitingforriki says, not everyone who does drugs ends up in rehab, and not every celebrity who ends up in rehab ends up with it being heavily publicized. Such intrusiveness is a bit of a new thing among the superstars of today. Smith has managed to avoid such status, largely by his will.

[Jakegothicsnake]

@bitterfly77 I sort of am embracing my youth. I've been 21 for a few months now and I still see myself as being like a 14 or 15 year-old, heck people say I still look younger than my age! lol

[bitterfly77]

@Jakegothicsnake I'm glad to hear you're embracing your youth. And at 21, you're now legal to drink and gamble in the U.S. - not that I'd encourage such behavior. :) I think you still have to be 24 or 25 (depends on the dealership) to rent a car, and at least 25 to run for Congress in most states. :) I'm 32, and I like to remind myself of the fact that I'm still too young to run for U.S. President - not that I'd ever end up on that path... :)

[Jakegothicsnake]

@bitterfly77 No worries. Even I am legally allowed to gamble and drink, I never bothered with either of them. Gambling never interested me and I never cared for alcoholic beverages.

[MalibuStacyRS]

He is a wonderful and brilliant human being.

[longsexylegs]

SOOO SEXY!!!  EVERY thing about him...drool....

[m0zc0re]

That cocaine is a hell of a drug! *sniff!*

[byesko86]

lmao, yeah you noticed that too?

[m0zc0re]

No big secret that he's a drug fiend!

[byesko86]

No, it's not. And the sniffling didn't help make it any less obvious! Plus he is talking like his mouth is numb. I've felt like he looks. lmao

[thecurearethebest]

he is just so cute

i love him :)

[darkrebel09]

ME TOO

[thecurearethebest]

i no u do :) we all do

[Waitingforriki]

Christ!!! There's no hope for you kids...

[thecurearethebest]

y are u saying that

the cure are the best

[theBunsenbrenners]

yeah, but you kids act like robert's some guy from a boygroup or something like that..

[thecurearethebest]

well there is nothing wrong with thinking he is cute

but that is not all i like about him

i love the hole band they are so amazing and talented

[Waitingforriki]

I'm not contesting how the great the Cure are..Top group! I was just havin' a bit of a laugh when reading the comments regards the 'cuteness' off Robert Smith etc..so I put the comment you see above..I mean no offense btw, I was 'havin' a larf'..Bless you thecurearethebest the Cure have been probably been together 3times longer than ur age..U keep lovin' 'em darlin'? U could do a helluva lot worse..No harm done..Peace be upon u..xxx ^_^ ..

[thecurearethebest]

well he is cute

i just like how he can be camera shy

yea they have been around 3 times longer than i have lol

No harm!

[StrummerLivesxxx]

MINE!

[catlover1001]

Ohmygosh Robert is just so adorable and smart! I would give anything to meet him. I love that he thought that 25 was too old, he's doubled age since then and he's still making amazing music!

[ncarraway22]

I LOVE HIM. I think he has a nicer face without all his makeup on though

[RosiePurplebat]

*tries very hard to refrain from licking the computer monitor*

[XxOhMYGOTH42xX]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAW!!­! He is soooo cute

[Supaduck0]

lol "there'll be no love dogs or whatever"

[courd15]

i could just eat him hes so adorable

[gnomeupmybutt]

Hahaha.

He didn't stop.

[PivotEpic]

he is too adorable!!! I just want to hug him!!!

[LipsLikeSugar78]

He is so beautiful here... How funny that he said back in 1984 that he was getting TOO OLD to work in contemporary music anymore! lol. ;) Robert Smith is genius.

[vanesilverchair]

soo fucking cute

[DDX1944]

he so cute!....adorable and is kind of funny how he said he was going to stop and now in 2009 he is still playing lol

[guitarbo1]

That interview/performance clip was, as Robert would say, completely brilliant. Growing upa classic rocker, "Concert" was the first Cure album I got into (the cassette w/Curiosities B-side). I miss this era of the Cure. (If I was a girl, I'm sure I would agree with many of the "cute" comments here...lol!

[thecureareamazing]

he is VERY attractive indeed!

[haniwanohanimaru]

"i won't be playing for another nine years" huh? you're now twice the age! thankfully you never stopped for another quarter century and good for you robert.

[hanzelheidi]

Damn! I want to lick the dimp in his chin.lol

[renagtz]

He's really cute =P

[87SaL87]

He seems SO shy...bless him! :)

X

[Zootysue]

The man behind the make-up is extremely handsome!

[12NJB22]

i love robert smith, he is so gorgeous
