I never dreamt I would hear this song on a radio station.  Very impressive.

From one listen?? This is a Cure classic - raw and untainted by the years. Full of disappointment and angst - beautifully written. Love the early stuff.

AWESOME!!!  A Cure classic - one of my favorites.  VERY nice to hear it here. Many a memory to this fine tune in the early 80's...

Cure is definitely an interesting band. Everything from sugary pop to dark stuff like this. I have a lot of respect for what they do.

Get the hell out of here!  You don't like the Cure!  And this is the Cure song that you like!  This is the only Cure song on RP I don't know by heart.

Well, Exciter, you are loud too...

It's true The Cure were a standout in the thin 80'S.

I must admit , all that I liked was the photography (album cover) This man has seen ALOT.  The photo brings to my mind an old fellow from Greece that I knew when I was a kid.  His name was Manoli (not sure of the spelling)..anyway I used to watch him walking along ever so slowly.. cane in hand..I knew that he didn't have many steps left here on earth..he'd look at me with that worn out face and smile.  I felt his warm heart shinning out at me..God rest your soul Mr. Manoli
