  • Haha, at least Simon is still trying to look like he's doing something. Bob and Lol couldn't be any more uninterested. And those floppy bass strings are hilarious.

  • @petejt um., no , ur wrong, Countdown was amazing for what it was. Just before the news with no commercials and international and local bands blowing everyones loungerooms away 5 nights a week after a shit day at work. I was just a kid and grew up with it and took it for granted. I look back at this now and think "Fuck Yeah!" u'll never see this again.And everyone took the piss out of playing live - google Iggy Pop on Countdown, the dude stuffs it down his pants as though his dick can sing :P

  • damn damn damn!!! Robert no se ve guapo, lo que le sigue!!! SE VE FASCINANTE, HERMOSO, SEXY, DIVINO, SE VE TAN SEXY, QUE NO PUEDO DEJAR DE VERLE!!!

  • hahaha I love this! they don't give a damn because they hate miming, in fact , Robert is playing bass too... and those loose strings! xD

    BTW they look so good!!!

  • At least they would've given him a fucking guitar!

  • simon looks so good here jesus christ 

  • I bought The Cure's album "Faith" after this show. So even if it was not a "live" performance it served to showcase The Cure to the Australian public.

    If only The Smiths had appeared on Countdown my life would have been so much easier! Absolutely none of my friends had even heard of The Smiths.

  • Nee echt playback?...

  • Cuando The Cure toca con playback siempre hacen el tonto... es algo típico de ellos.

  • xddd se nota que no le gusto doblar la cancion

  • People go on about Count Down being such a great show, yet it was pathetic as this video clip shows. Who the hell did they think they were fooling by getting bands to mime on stage while they play the studio recording on the PA? It's funny how The Cure completely took the piss out of the miming by singing out of synch and slowly strumming floppy loose bass strings! haha!
