Que calidad,lástima que gente no les haya conocido y otros no sepan apreciar.les oigo desde la adolescencia,tengo 46 años.soy portugués y para mi la mejor banda de siempre.god bless you,all ex the cure members.
One of the best headphone songs ever made. Remember riding the train, baked as a potato when this started playing. Still gives me goosebumps when I hear the opening rifts.
This has to be one of my ALL TIME FAVOURITE tunes. Makes me stand up and want to persevere, also makes me want to sit, think and be content. Brilliant tune.
Freaking gorgeous. Just an absolutely brilliant, beautiful song. Robert Smith.... hitting and skipping through those intense notes. Playful! And good lord.... THAT BASS LINE.
Damn it! I'm 44 years old and yesterday was the first time I've heard this song. I've only heard like maybe 4 or 5 The Cure songs in my entire life. Stupid radio! Well, it's time for me to live!!!!
Song reminds me of when I was in the Army skiing in Austria. Happy memories of black runs on the slope with the headphones on listening to this haunting and beautiful song. Hard to beleive that this is now over 30 years old....
54 e l'adolescenza passata (rigorosamente il sabato) al Suburbia locale di Perugia dove si viveva l'onda nuova del Rock inglese soprattutto come i The Cure,i Simple minds, Siouxsie and the Banshees ,New Order,Depeche Mode ecc ecc,gran bella musica!
I'm 19 years old and actually not from that times BUT.. AWESOME music!! never heard such a rythm in modern song :D The new generation need to listen this music!
I am 57 and I 've grown up with the Dark wave and Goth punk in the 80's : Cure, Siouxsie And The Banshees, Virgin Prunes, Bahaus' and so many others. IT was extatic, a Real experiment for the mind and the soul. I remember me all dressed in black with this music max volume through my walkman hearphones. Old And Young people, we have so many things to share.
one of the best song in History of music.And again and again and again ... I watch them 3 times ,one of the best band ever.Profesional , eternal teenagers polite band...
The forest is clearly a metaphor for the psyche, or part of the human experience. The human spirit will always seek and never find, never achieve an eternal peace or utopia. Despite accomplishments or wealth there is always a nagging sense of lack, of loss. We all feel this way at times because we are human, and we are bio spiritual beings trapped in particlized, limited bodies. Chew on that one lol.
i'm 22 and this music is also before my time, but i like 'new wave' a lot. Actually i listen to it everyday now and for A Forrest i listen to it al year round neally everyday for the last 3 years now !!
That pic of her in the dress.....that's me, up all night walking, listening to music (drinking).......never finding a way out, I just keep walking through trees....it never ends.........lost in this fucking forest.....it's just a dream, I promise, it's just a dream!!!
Flipin heck ...when I got lost in that forest just me and that littel boy,was that boy the lead singer of the cure ????? Maybe who knows.(back in the day maybe 73) ???
J'ai tellement plané sur cette chanson, leur meilleur tube, à une époque où j'étais fan de gothico-new wave au début des années 80. J'étais allée les voir en concert à Londres, on était tous défoncés. C'était une musique qui nous transportait dans la 4ème dimension, on fermait les yeux et on planait à 15 000. Avec ou sans défonce, la seule musique suffisait à nous transcender. Une autre époque. Putain, que je regrette cette époque.
Ahh..back then in 1980 when I bought the Album Seventeen Seconds... wow..seems like a lifetime ago.. and..IT IS! Now I'm an old fart still listening to the old stuff dreaming of the glory days back then.. lots of weed around:-)
I was sitting in a cafe about four years back, reading the paper. In the background - very quietly - the cafe owner had some music on. While reading, a compelling walking-bass line drilled slowly into my brain, until I had to put the paper down.. I had to go and ask... "..what IS that ?" "Dunno", said the cafe girl, "but I'll go and look.." "...its by a band called The Cure and it's called "A Forest". "A Forest ?" I said, confused. "Yep". Went home and googled... and still it drills my brain. What a fantastic, moody, dark track. PS: for those who really like "dark" tracks: look up "Live Oak" by Jason Isbel, and have a listen to the lyrics. Another great track: but what is that about...
Don't think so, I always loved the fidelity of this song/album on CD, youtube compression probably accents the highs as well. Maybe you're remembering the horrible cassette tape era! Lol!
When i was young at 6 or 7 years (1966 maybe) i drew an eternal forest of pinwood in a landscape of snow all along plenty pasted sheets of paper with sometime a wolf behind a tree, crazy boy , crazy but beautiful song
@@fusionreactor1357 it's to late, for me, it was some decade ago; no i don't thinck so, i thinck it's just the expression of child's emotion in front the unknow , a deed forest is one of our primal fear; it's awfull fo rall human being and for more for a child; that's all;
