MojoJojo Feb 19, 2013 - 07:05 | Perhaps it's been explained here before, but.. The man featured on the album cover was not a member of the Cure; he was chosen because his appearance fit the desired aesthetic of the album. His name is John Button, and was at the time a retired fisherman. He also appeared in the music video for "Killing an Arab." According to the band's 2005 biography by Jeff Apter, when asked why he agreed to lend his face to the band's media, Button's answer was "If I can help these youngsters break through, after all, why not?" He also reportedly said that he would buy a player and listen to one of the band's songs "out of curiosity, just to see." |

Those lines around his mouth are smile-lines - you can bet your bottom dollar that when he breaks into a grin, it covers his whole face and lights up his eyes, and probably influences everyone around him to smile, too. And I like this song. But I like the album cover better... Miss you... |
