I've been looking so long at these pictures of you
That I almost believe that they're real
I've been living so long with my pictures of you
That I almost believe that the pictures are all I can feel
Remembering you, standing quiet in the rain
As I ran to your heart to be near
And we kissed as the sky fell in, holding you close
How I always held close in your fear
Remembering you, running soft through the night
You were bigger and brighter and whiter than snow
Screamed at the make-believe, screamed at the sky
And you finally found all your courage to let it all go
Remembering you, fallen into my arms
Crying for the death of your heart
You were stone white, so delicate, lost in the cold
You were always so lost in the dark
Remembering you, how you used to be
Slow drowned, you were angels, so much more than everything
Hold for the last time, then slip away quietly
Open my eyes, but I never see anything
If only I'd thought of the right words
I could've held on to your heart
If only I'd thought of the right words
I wouldn't be breaking apart
All my pictures of you
Looking so long at these pictures of you
But I never hold on to your heart
Looking so long for the words to be true
But always just breaking apart
My pictures of you
There was nothing in the world that I ever wanted more
Than to feel you deep in my heart
There was nothing in the world that I ever wanted more
Than to never feel the breaking apart
My pictures of you
That I almost believe that they're real
I've been living so long with my pictures of you
That I almost believe that the pictures are all I can feel
Remembering you, standing quiet in the rain
As I ran to your heart to be near
And we kissed as the sky fell in, holding you close
How I always held close in your fear

Nice one. I was at university when they first appeared, so I'm biased towards the earlier works. Funnily enough I had a similar experience to yours trying to convince my lot to appreciate Echo and The Bunnymen, after playing "bring on the dancing horses" at a my birthday barbecue and my youngest daughter and her friends all asking "what the f... is that crap Dad?"
I happened to begin attending college (the first time) in the fall of 1989 when this was the "new" Cure album. It was a great album and considered an instant classic by my friends and I. It fit in so well that it was featured in the University's Thursday night planetarium light show. I've since tried to explain the importance of "alternative" music like this to my children who are now beginning to attend college themselves. Alas, they can't relate at all and are relegated to music that is somewhat less than transcendent. Music was so much better back then, now get off my lawn!

It's almost not fair how good they are. I wanted to go back and live in that moment forever. Sigh.

As for whether they'll retire? Probably not yet. Bob's been making that claim for a while.

Nobody can generate a mood and sense of introspection like Robert and the boys. True artists.

Definitely in my top five artists of all time, not that that matters to all of you, who don't know me at all. I haven't seen them live yet, and I'd give nearly anything to. Robert Smith just makes so much sense to me. It's wonderful that they remain in such fine musical form.

More awkward silence, then he suggests we grab the boom box and go out onto the dock to check out the full moon. He pops in Disintegration, we roll one and smoke it, and become best friends for 20 years after. And I go out and buy everything this band ever recorded.
Right on man.
Saw them in concert 2 years ago, before the world grounded to a halt, and it was a near-spiritual experience. When they played this song all the chatter and noise in the crowd stopped. Everyone, it seemed, was transfixed by this incredible gem of a song. I'll never forget that day.

Yep. I completely agree unclehud I don't know if machine self-awareness is the worst, or if it's our not being aware of it.
Sometimes I'm baffled that we're at the point (myself included) that we actually drive exactly where the little voice tells us to drive. Spooky in a way.
It's not unlike automatic translators. There's no denying they're becoming great. Still, are we not losing something asking a machine/ AI to think in our place? What do I learn about the other person if I'm not trying to speak their language? I think I'd much rather struggle with miming than speak into my phone so that it spits back my words into another language.

My Pandora station has started playing the radio edit of this song, and it bugs me so much. It's like constant vocals, no breaks for the guitar melodies, and it just doesn't have the soul of this cut.

I remember the first time I saw them in concert. They opened with this song. Simply amazing.
Simply their best song. Period.
I never truly appreciated this when it came out as a middle school kid. Now after listening to it so many times over the years on RP I finally appreciate it. Thanks Bill and Rebecca.
This is one of my top songs of all time.
Sublimely sweet, sad and painful. I'm a recent convert to The Cure. So many introductions to great bands as a result of RP. Thank you.
They played this at Glastonbury last year. A highlight of the festival.
Beautiful tune.
Thanks for the description. Those moments are what make life awesome. Hope you are still getting them occasionally.

Fellows, I'm 60 and I listening to The Cure to the present day and Picture Of You, Shake Dog Shake, Boys Don't Cry, Lullabay and A Forest - my favorite tracks. Amazing collective!

Awful snare drum!
The Cure are one of the most underrated bands in the world. Sheer brilliance!
This one a 10. It just hurts that perfectly.
10. Quite simply 10. Magnificent.
The remixed version on Mixed up is excellent also. You can feel the sadness.
A simply beautiful song with great guitar as only Robert Smith can do

I can't and won't get tired of this gem. 
In 1989 I was listening to Def Leppard and Poison. Damn I missed a lot of great music. I guess I wasn't mature enough for this, but I sure do enjoy it now.

Is it just me, or does anyone else think that Robert Smith's makeup face looks a bit like The Joker?

This song was released in 1989 where as Arcade Fire was formed in 2001. Maybe AF's drummer was inspired by The Cure VH1 wrote:

note to self - must listen to the whole of this album very soon. This is a great song. Lots of others on the album too.
I`m so happy - Cure are coming back to Germany in October.
Hope they are still in good shape. Anyone who has seen them recently?

Sorry, but it's godlike
That whole Smiths, Cure etc era, I spent researching other music not overly played on radios on the island (GB). Subsiquently, I never formed a deep appriciation for the sub sub genre, but there are a few Im very fond of ... very few.
HEY MAN!
thank you so much!!!
I love this song!!!

I was 14 'ish on or about when The Cure as well as The Smiths, and a few other 80s punk bands were big at my high school for the select few eclectics. Interestingly, probably more punks at my school in light of that had started bands than for any other music genre within my peer age group. One of my girl friends from highschool thought she was in love with The Cure lead singer, haha..I thought he was certainly entertaining looking, and tried to see what she had seen. Johnny Depp in Edward Scissorhands looked way way more better to me though ;) Anyway, The Cure wasn't my favorite, but they weren't just tolerable for me, so, I suppose I would give them somewhere just above tolerable? I'd much rather listen to The Smiths given the choice..

I recognize the high qualty of songwriting and musicianship... I recognize Robert Smith is a great vocalist, but every little utterance from him sounds like a crying infant. WAAAH WAAAH WAAAH.
Cannot like it.
Cannot like it.
Still amazes me that so many bought this music. I quite like it, but it seems so un-mainstream.
I actually know why I hate The Cure so much: when I was 16, *ALL* my (female) (?) classmates would fall in love with the trashy lipstick and the never-seen-a-ray-of-sunlight skin complexion, arguing that THIS guitar was thousand times more brilliant than, e.g. Yngwie Malmsteen (taken at random. There was choice at that time). Perhaps it's time for me to undergo a sofa analysis and peacefully reunite with that past. But as of today, this is still an assertive 1. 
9->to a rare 10

Lou Reed probably had a substantial influence on these guys though.
The music, the lyrics, the goosebumps on my arms. The Cure was such a great band, so many classics and this is my favorite..
Classic 1980's, please keep playing this.

Remembering you, running soft through the night
You were bigger and brighter and whiter than snow
Screamed at the make-believe, screamed at the sky
And you finally found all your courage to let it all go

From elbow to the cure....my dual fav trax after a horrible week... thanks RP!!!
PSD' from ween to this so good on a very hot Sat arvo.. Currently 37c and about to head back into the pool... What a pleasure.....
Still one of my favourite albums of all time. Dim the lights and let the blue light of a cold winter evening flood your room. Then add "Disintegration". Perfect.

October 1988...up at my girlfriend's lake home. Her best friend came up with her boyfriend and we awkwardly shook hands and the girls disappeared into the kitchen to talk.
More awkward silence, then he suggests we grab the boom box and go out onto the dock to check out the full moon. He pops in Disintegration, we roll one and smoke it, and become best friends for 20 years after. And I go out and buy everything this band ever recorded.
That's a really poignant note. Good words during a time of pessimism! Rise above and beyond, Bro!
