I’ll watch that later in full. I still play Cure music, 35/40 years on.
They headline at Glastonbury next month too.
Saw their 40th anniversary gig at Hyde Park last year on the day that England beat Sweden in the WC, a truly great day out.

I bet it was. Was the Sweden match televised on a giant screen in the park?
I’ve said this before, but I find it incredible that Smith and mates were creating the music and lyrics to A Forest, Play for Today, Boys Don’t Cry, etc, whilst in their teens and age 20. Most lads that age are just finding themselves. The same applies to Lennon/McCartney, Morrissey/Marr, Curtis/Sumner/Hook/Morris. Latter-day musical geniuses.
Ever grateful for their genius, endless happy hours spent listening to their art.![]()

Absolutely. I think Paul Weller could be added to that list after writing All Mod Cons when he was 19 years old.
