Underneath the Stars - Longer! - The Cure Live at Red Rocks

[MrBarracuda99]

i love this song tranaporting me

[halogen187]

I am 36 and have been a very casual listener of the cure off and on throughout the 80's and 90's. This was my first show ever and they blew my mind. I had no idea how rich and deep their sound. This show pretty much made them a regular listening staple for me and I wish I had seen them much sooner. I am sold now. AWESOME! Glad I got to see them because who knows how much longer the will play!

[99Lorne]

I'm 46 and I've known of The Cure for-ever, but I was never really a fan (I'm mostly into "rock"). However, after seeing their 2008 concert from Charlotte broadcast on HDNET, I became a big-time fan... Every song they do sounds amazing!

[stew182]

i recken this song kinda has a angels an airwaves feel to it from the we don't need to whisper

[doors36]

you mean a Cure feel to it.

[1fuck2me3]

Exactly! A Cure feel.

[Hallucination]

I love this song but I agree with those who miss the keys and synth the Cure used to have. Not sue why Robert has choosen to go without them.

[NoGuitarNoLife]

it made me feeling really sad..this song is really deep..the cure..very great music..i didn't listen to them some months ago, but the first time I heard them I fell something in my heart. Really great..

[vertigoexist]

Oh yeah it sounds great but i don't know why some people say that the cure are not making great music. I agree with them, the cure not make classics songs since wish album but they have a great soul and it doesn't matter if they are comming down now i think diferent and i always say "if it like it, and make your heart turns crazy when you heard it, the rest are only words in the wind"

[Hallucination]

Are you crazy? This is a Lie, Treasure and Want not classics? Bloodflowers, There is no If or the Loudest Sound not classic Cure songs?

[vertigoexist]

Oh yeah some songs from the bloodflowers, wild mood swings and the cure albums some people say that not a classic but i like so much want, 13, this is a lie, mint car, out of of this world, maybe someday 39. before 3, alt end.... and well there are so many songs.

[gnzvideos]

@Hallucination time didn't give you the reason I'm afraid... nowadays none of the songs you mention are played live. In fact no songs from WMS are part of their songlists anymore...

[Hallucination]

@gnzvideos I'm not sure what you're getting at (my comment was three years ago) but if you're trying to suggest that because a song is no longer in the setlist that means it is not a classic than I completely disgaree.

[smokeverbs]

This is the best song since "Bloodflowers". I love it.

[lachayacualpica]

you are so right .... the 2 better songs of la cure are, blood flowers and this fucking song

[demarcoddorf]

Agree with a lot said below but this song actually works better without keys. Its one of the few but I like the simplicity of the pure guitar play and robert actually singing like a string melody. pictures of you did also have very few keys cause the guitar play was so cloudy that it worked without. similar here

[Xephon212]

Please dont thumbs down posts just because you disagree with them. Its supposed to filter out hate speech--not different opinions on music.

Thanks.

I love the Cure but have been disappointed with their s/t and the forthcoming album.

[fallingbird]

Yes, I remember the "Music for Dreams" rumors.

Things have turned into Music for Nightmares.

I just can't believe what has happened to my favorite band.

Even this song, as great as I think it is, I can't help to think how good it COULD have been with keyboards.

The heavy distortion, overuse of wah-wah, schecters, all have to go.

The cure was about beautiful dreamy music with keyboards, and VINTAGE GUITAR TONE that a scheter will never be able to reproduce.

Kids, This is not the Cure.

[Xephon212]

I am in total agreement with you.

[fallingbird]

I agree with you 100% skukky.

Just not on this song, I think this is the only good one...

But yes,

The Wah-wah and heavy distortion is killing the Cure.

Porl needs to go back to Zeppelin, he was better suited there.

[skukky1]

thank you so much fallingbird for your "support"... you just caught the point...Robert,years and years ago, used to talk about a secret project he had called "music for dreams" if i'm not wrong, it had to be made of strings, cello piano and acoustic/classical instruments of this kind... I've always dreamt about he made up his mind and brought it eventually out :-) i'm sure that work would actually sound great!!!

[skukky1]

comment part 6:

since mr Smith invented the genuine "cure-sound" which has made the history of good music and many bands are still clearly influenced by it,why doesn't he take advantage of this relying on it istead of taking the cure "adrift" playing somewhat like death metal and wah-wah guitars? does anyone of you agree with me? :-)

[demarcoddorf]

skukky, close your eyes, listen to that song and if you cant feel the typical cure chill from 20 years ago it might be that you have become older as well

[skukky1]

Comment part 5:

Currently there are many groups deeply influenced by the cure such as Shout Out Louds for instance,well even if they just crib the "early" cure i think their sound is great and fresh first of all, much better than a song like this

[skukky1]

comment part 4:

i don't want to sound stupidly obvious and nostalgic - but works such as disintegration,faith,pornograp­hy,the top,kiss me kiss me kiss me - all their albums from the 80's essentially - are master works to me, that's really sound music i think

[skukky1]

comment part 3:

I think a more experimental and "elegant" and romantic and glamorous and melancholic sound made of strings,acoustic instruments blended with electronics (such as Goldfrapp,Röyksopp - not very appropriate examples in this case though) would maybe agree much more with the cure themselves and perhaps with all the old fans like me still all hot about old albums

[skukky1]

comment part 2

they are quite "old" too, i don't report specifically to this song but i wonder why have "lately "they begun to rock'n'roll just at this point of their magnificent career...wouldn't it be "better" if their current sound was more "chill-out"?

[skukky1]

comment part 1

this song is nothing original,even if much more better maybe than the other tracks we'll find on next album...i actually wonder why they don't make good music any more...they have been my favorite group since ever but i think to be honest if i say their sound isn't innovative at all as i think being innovative means making good music...

[krakkrk]

kurwa zajebisty kawałek !!!!!!!!! POLAND!

[Issicra]

Very pretty song...

Are the Cure just not touring with a keyboardist now?

[vendo89]

they don't play with key from 3 years...I hope a keyboardist will return =)

[NICKELS181]

AMAZING SONG. HE OPENED UP WITH THIS ATLANTA. SAME AS THE HOLLYWOOD BOWL. ATLANTA CROWD DOSENT SEEM TO GET INTO THE CURE LIKE LOS ANGELES CROWD. AND I WAS IN THE FRONT AGAIN. There were a couple of die hard fans but a lot of people would end up sitting down. That sucks. No one in pool circle ever sat down. at least i didnt notice. RObert was amazing in both shows though. so its all good. great clip!!!!!!!!!!

[ejquezad]

I LOVE THIS SONG!! My favorite so far. It's going to be a GREAT album! Can't wait to have on my hands!

[kimiiila]

it's so wonderful ;')

[HaloCure]

The other regular open / close pair besides the ones you list is Out of This World which pairs with the ending song of Bloodflowers. There are also specific "intro" songs / sounds to these as well, for instance, Plainsong which opens with the chimes, Out of this World which starts with "Adagio for Strings", "Tape" which precedes Open and then now we have the sounds of the crashing waves which we now know precedes Underneath the Stars.

[HaloCure]

Actually, that's pretty well known among Cure setlist geeks. They are a little predictable for the opener / closer songs.

[Seiler823]

i think this may be the best one of the new songs that i've heard so far! can't wait til the cleveland show next week!

[HeDreamsAwake]

It's Such A Great Feeling To Know This Is NEW !! They Opened With This In Tampa Last Night - Beautiful, Like Plainsong.. 1:36-2:00 Fucking Painfully Wonderful..

[JupiterMain]

Great videos! Thanks!

Cure Sound and Soul , no doubt!

[lifeisacabaret]

Fucking awesome song! Another Cure anthem! :^D

[ajittffcure]

I love this new song. From the new songs I have heard so far, I think 'Underneath the Stars' really is the most captivating. It's a very ethereal sounding song.

[fix33r]

I have to agree with you, of all the new I have heard this sound is my favorite..sounds like a slower version of deep green sea to me

[mgg1977]

Very nice song, the sound reminds me "Lost Wishes"...

[lilpiska]

i love this song, it's amazing.

[TheArchAngel90650]

This is a fucken incredible song, it seems to be a lost song from the Disinigration album or what?

[VaniaSmith]

Thanks for the video. I went to the Cure concert at Dallas yesterday, and I am in love with this song! The concert was great...

[soundchekvol1]

what album is this song from?

[HaloCure]

It's not from an album yet, they have only played it in concert a few times. I'm hoping it will be on the new album to be released in Sept.

[scw20062007]

Cazzo che canzone! Grandissimi!!

[greyagain]

brilliant song

a cure classic imo

can't wait for the new l.p.

[77Sueness77]

Ouch! My heart hurts. Heard this live, opening at the Hollywood Bowl for the first time. Ouch.

[Hidizzle06]

i cant believe i got a CHANCE TO SEE THEM LIVE AT THE HOLLYWOOD BOY!!!! THIS SONG LIVE WAS AMAZING!!! does anybody know where i can find this song?!??!?!? like on a cd?!?!?

[HaloCure]

It should be on the album to be released Sept. 13th.

[Hidizzle06]

thank you so much!!!!

[jesterjaims]

This song gives me chills :)

[wellwhowhat]

this, for me, just might be my favourite cure song.

Ever.

[pytmonty]

Whisper in my ear, a wish

"We could drift away so far"?

A voice inside of my head, a kiss

It's infinite, the hours alone tonight

Watching shadows melt?

If I were here like this with you

Underneath the stars at night

For 13 billion years of you (a view?)

It's infinite, and ours alone tonight

Underneath the stars

[pytmonty]

Across the years?, like this with you Underneath the stars above For 13 billion years of you (a view?) It's beautiful, and ours alone tonight Underneath The Stars Spinning round and round with you Watching shadows melt the light? ???? from our eyes, a tear Another space is ours alone tonight Watching shadows melt? The waves....break The waves....break

[orrigami]

i saw this last night! i was in shock...

[lifehappens11]

[jwmerrick]

[datrama]

[precinct]

[vinnypiana]

Such a great song...Really gets me into the cure again.

[rubmarquez]

Underneath the Stars... A boy I never knew... The Cure's atmosphere is back!!!

[ClockwiseCat]

I can die now. I have officially heard the most beautiful song ever made. That's not hyperbole... that's fact!

[vghardy]

[Mileyfan257]

They couldn't have done a better song to open Red Rocks with. Perfect, gorgeous song.

[lostandwounded]

[lostandwounded]

[bobbygkp]

great song ! hopefully the album version will be similar....re: look at what happened to wendytime, cut and big hand from the time of the secret gig to the album release...

[ShadowDances11]

Beautiful... Although I have to disagree with previous posts. It's an entirely new sound. Beautiful.

[JoshL88]

[greyagain]

[amnesiac13]

Todos los Curados estamos deacuerdo,esta es una de las mejores canciones de su historia,me emociona escucharla... recuerdos de tiempos mejores!

[eljanusz]

i`m already completely sure it will be one of the best cure`s songs ever for me. first time since bloodflowers i can`t stop crying because of emotions. this song is PERFECT. that`s right the best cure`s song in 21 century.i`m full of hope that new album (Dream 13)will be better than previous

[lmollu]

For me it's the best The Cure's song in XXI century - absolutely brilliant!!! I can't wait any longer for the album version!

[greyagain]

yeah!

[uncobone71]

CLOUDBERRY' ISH '92 ERA!!!!!

[heartFIEND]

what's cloudberry?

[led7eppelin]

"Cloudberry" is an instrumental track recorded during the WISH sessions, in 1991-92. It was released along with three other instrumental tracks from the same sessions in 1993 as a mail-order only cassette, called "Lost Wishes". These lost instrumental songs will most certainly be inluded in the forthcoming deluxe 2CD edition of WISH, due for release in 2008 "sometime". How's that for a conclusive answer...? Personally, I think this song sounds more like "The Final Sound" from BLOODFLOWERS.

[rhamrick123]

You mean, "The Loudest Sound." ;)

[led7eppelin]

Yes, I meant "The Loudest Sound". Silly me. I got mixed up, thanks.

[tchoutx]

just gorgeous!!!!

[lywingoth]

dude...that's massive! love it, pictures of you reminding

[heartFIEND]

this song is brilliant.

[javkiss]

Freakin Amazing, The new album is going to be Killer!!

[WJ758]

Holy fuck this song is the best Cure song ever ever EVER.

[ant83]

Al fin un temazo!!!!

[uncobone71]

"INSTANT CLASIC!"

[lemmuhj]

awesome!!!!!! I can't wait till the album!!!!!

[LoveBarbieA]

It's amazing that they still can creat such a beautiful song like this. The Cure never ceases!

[OnniHopeDream]

Now A Boy I Never Knew has competition for best song off the new album ;p

[CarnageVisors]

it looks like the best song in 15 years!

[pytmonty]

this is disintegration mixed with bloodflowers, so much the cure, love it!

[jennyhung]

This is wonderful. Thanks for sharing this!! My favorite new song so far.

[amnesiac13]

Uffff,al fin algo de sonido "Cure" y ademas es buenisima,a la altura de los grandes temas... me encanta!
