THE CURE - A Forest live 1992 Reaction with Mike & Ginger 

12:47 Holy crap! He just starts playing She’s Lost Control for a little bit! ❤

You reviewed the BEST possible performance of this song ever recorded. This live version simply is this best.

If you really want to know how Robert Smith is good on Guitar check "The Kiss" live trilogy in Berlin 2002...... It's a pure master piece of performance !!!

Best version of "A forest" for me.

I can't recall any other songs which lift you in dark emotional intimistic wave better than this one. Cure obsession X ever!!!!!

Goosebumps all the time when I heard each version of THE CURE - A Forest. Happy 90's Sound Vibes. 🎶🌳🤘

Simon Gallop is an absolute beast!

Definitely one of the, if not *THE* best live bands ever.... I have managed to see them 3 times i my life, once in High School, when they came to Hampton, once at William & Mary College, when they came on the *Wish Tour,* probably my favorite show, and once more recently, when me and my little brother drove all the way to Maryland to see them. The first show was *AMAZING* because I was still a teenager, the second show was *UNBELIEVABLE* because it was a great venue at the college auditorium, and I got to get right at the stage, the third show was actually a little bit of a letdown, if I am truthful because the show was *WAY OVERSOLD* and we ended up having to watch from a *LONG* way away, on the hill, and could not really even see the band. Then again, *The Cure* sell out quick, but if you get the chance, *which may be running short now,* as they are getting pretty old now, without question you *NEED* to see these guys live!!

They performed this at several venues in 2019 - Glasto, Pink Pop, Hall of Fame Induction. They've still got it.

This version of "a.forest", is on the "Show", dvd.........l had my copy transferred from video......ln London & l.guess everywhere, "trilogy", dvd., is a three album dvd.........again, in.london you can get it for a fiver & it has extras & interviews..........

12:44 seems like a tribute to joy division.. Roberts playing the bass hook of she's lost control on his guitar!

Faith is my favourite Cure album. Drowning Man probably the best song on it.

If you've never heard 'The Forest' live, then you've missed something very, very special. Absolutely loved them! I saw them at Crystal Palace with Depeche Mode and Sisters of Mercy- honestly one of the best times of the life.

I must admit that I never listened to The Cure back then, I cannot remember why, maybe heard a song by them and didn’t like it, don’t know but listening to this I’m sorry I didn’t. Enjoyed this. Will definitely checking out some of their music on RU-vid. Thank you Mike and Ginger ❤️🤘🇦🇺

I saw this tour live in 92 - and I've never felt bass like I felt it at this concert. Right in my chest.

If i had to choose one song and one song only to listen for the rest of my life it would be this one! An absolute masterpiece!

Saw the 3 times in concert over more than a decade… they never disappointed.

It is worth checking out for obscure Cure stuff.,.........acoustically still available.......Paul Thompson with page/plant, lullaby............nice prog' you have....,.....congrat's....... no overkill/hype..........best wishes, will, London.......

As a Preston North End fan I'll concede that Robert is the best thing to ever come out of Blackpool. And that's a very hard thing for a northender to admit.

I have been to 3 Cure concerts amd have never been dissapointed. Always value for money. Long concerts. Good sound. Spacy as hell. The 1988, 1992 and 1996 concerts where highlights for me.

I liked and subscribed just because of this one video. Amazing stuff. More Cure reaction video’s please. I could watch these for hours!

He played it at à party..,..............he liked the freebie............in fact a few played........ñice he is still improving.,...,.....still waiting for the heaviest ever............Í think he may well have. the people............Page would hopefully be welcome, ask Porl ............

Didn't see The Cure because I was spoilt for choice. ..Shall I see Queen next week..or AC/DC... or maybe Half Man Half Biscuit.. Those were the days. :)

A forest.. 1992......... a few minutes rarely rivàlled....... seeing zep' live, first live playing of dark side... Hyde park stones...... listen to beezus Taylor........you tube........

I love the Concert - The Cure Live album version of this song. Bought the album mid 80's and this song was magical.

A fiigureheàd...... Excellent bànd...........si', excels'........ nice blokes.........a çouple of miles from my, then home...........xx

I love new wave music 🎶.. The Cure, Depeche Mode, U2, Tears for Fears, just to name a few!!! Watching this is like a blast from the past.. Thanks folks, take care and godspeed ❤️ 🇵🇭..

Excellent version.

Check out a girl, beezus Taylor............if you're into Cure..........well worth it......,

Está versión tiene más huevos que mayonesa casera

BEAUTIFUL MASTERPIECE !!!!!!!!!!!!

Finally! someone reactet to the best version of the best song (in my opinion) Bravo!

Ginger: "That is probably the best thing i´ve ever heard like ever" I agree with you ;)

Pleasee🙏🙏🙏 reaction isyana sarasvati feat deadsquad live penjara batin deatmetal from indonesia🙏🙏🙏

Possibly the best ever cure song. Memorable!

Bands from the 80's and early 90's were so gooooood!

They are still performing live Ginger, and they are still pretty decent, grab your chance next time they go on tour...

Have you watched the Rock and Roll HOF induction performance? Great example of how tight they still are live.

Top 5 greatest song I’ve ever seen live (5 times)

got to love live get more of a bonus add it to the end !

What a tune, what a tune. Who ever choose this has got an ear for quality music.

I don't think it gets more 'classic Cure' than this. This and 'Close to me' are my favourite classic Cure songs. :) They did however make a song called 'Burn' that was featured in the movie 'The Crow' that's very different from their usual sound, that song is my favourite Cure song and one of the greatest songs i've ever heard. :)

Beautiful beautiful beautiful the best song gothic dark 👏👏👏👏🎸🎸🎸🎸🌃🌃🌃🌃🎵🎵🎵🎵

Magical. By far the best recorded version of A Forest live.

It's fun to see pictures of Robert when he's casual and not on stage or a music video.

I was at that show, had 4th row center 😁

You all realize the Top TV Shows of today would NEVER LET THEM APPEAR. Not “American Idol”/ “Brit Idol” or any version of #TheVoice! New Order wouldn’t pass, Early Bowie’d have NO chance, nor Siouxsie. Yet all the stars are just dust compared to such Creatures!

tickets for the cure in london 2022 one year tommorrow ....£100 each ticket!!!! ouch ...saw them support siouxsie and the banshees in 1979 for £3

Epic sound from the Cure, their most wellknown song and a big hit in the eighties.

You guys should have a look at the Dutch interval acts at Eurosong contest 2021. Everybody is talking about them because you won't believe what you eyes see. First you have Davina Michelle who sings the song Power of Water. And you have the world famous DJ Afrojack with the Whitney Houston reincarnation Glennis Grace doing the song Music binds us.

part of my holy trinity of music from my youth, The Cure, New Order, and The Smiths//outstanding stuff//troutbumandsam

They are still absolutely amazing live...! Did you get to see them on North America tour this year?

They are actually one of the very few bands that are better live than recorded…

I saw the Cure between 84 and mid 90s about a dozen times and frankly they were SIMPLY FUCKING AWESOME every time... I can't really state it any higher than that, that's why I LOVE them.

Bragg. So boring. !

I try to imagine if Mozart or some other classical composers would had the chance to hear that unique performance...i love it ♡ !!

Robert Smith is in my opinion the greatest composer of our time, up to the level of J.S. Bach, Beethoven, Mozart,...

I saw this Cure's tour , in France. It was truly amazing !

It's the best The Cure song that's not on 'Disintegration'.

I love this version, have seen it already so many times. The song itself is on our Spotify Playlist on heavy rotation.

I saw them live in 1999 and can't remember how they sounded. I can only remember that I went there on short notice and people were already holding up signs for tickets in front of the hall, and there were still some at the box office. :D

Saw them live in the late 90's and it was incredible. Robert Smith is the GOAT song writer of all time.

The Cure & The Smith with their groovy bassline !

Looking forward to seeing them at the end of this year. They are a phenomenal live band, music and vocals always on point!

I saw the Cure on this tour. Best all-around live show I've ever seen.

Was that just a touch of Joy Division I heard in there?

I was 13 when I saw them on The Prayer Tour it was the most amazing show. I saw Wish Tour and loved it but The Prayer Tour will always be my favorite

Amazing song, the soundtrack of my teens. Saw them live in 87, 2011 and 2013, the last was their best. They won’t disappoint you Ginger. Osheaga was a great venue along with New Order, Garbage, Jesus and Mary Chain.........

Also guys play a great Canadian 80s band The Hooters their song All You Zombies from 1983 cheers from Australia.

Epic performance!

Even if it’s in your own time check the trilogy dvd, its three albums back to back perfectly with half another album for an encore 🤣🤣🤣🤣 atmospheric, moody and hauntingly beautiful 🖤

the Defininitive Cure line up, Robert, Simon, Porl ( now Coral ) , Boris and Perry ( who used to be a roadie for them ) . Not eh longest version of a Forest though, i had a "bootleg" tape from a concert in germany from early 80's with a 17 minute version thats just mind blowing.

A great song. Did like The Cure back in the day. From what I've heard, they still have got it. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I've seen them live twice at Shoreline Ampitheater in California. By far the best live performances of any concerts I've been to...and I've seen Rush, Tool, Journey, etc. This band is so good live!!!

Standing on the beach was my first cure vinyl too...

They’re still around. Make sure you see them. Best live band after The Who. Just saying!

That's not the original version. Slightly modified with new lyrics.

Sonically captivating and mesmerizing.

lol Billy Bragg now there is a name I haven't heard of i a long time... Fo you huyz have any Billy Brag React to Videos... Unfortunatley I was only introduced to Back yo Basicsalbum and I nver really got into Billy... Vuz theCure is ay Better .;) Check ya later eh

Check out “ the Cure in Orange” live gig from early 90’s in an open air amphitheater in Europe. It’s excellent and right here on RU-vid You’re very welcome

I’ve seen The Cure loads of times from the early ‘80s up until last year and A Forest is always a highlight at the end but I’ve never seen a version like that before where they wove in other songs. Loved it but….

have never seen the cure, but the tribute band ReCure is quite fun to see. Have seen them 2x in a small venue (5 feet away) and it's really the next best thing to paying $180 for a cure ticket.

"The Show" was the first live video I've got. I was fourteen..

Brilliant tune by the cure. Reminds me of seeing them in Edinburgh playhouse in early eighties. Thanks for the memories.

i was more than happy to see them in concert here in 🇧🇷 in 2015...i love them deeply..just to add:at the occasion I was in shock to hear that RS has not lost the same voice tone ( sorry for the bad english).

I'm not sure there's a Cure fan who doesn't think this is their best song ever. At least it is for me. They are one of those few bands that have their own sound and nothing else is like it.

Never heard this performance before - I love how Smith goes into 'she's lost control' near the end!

This is the very best version of this song out there and there are a few with different endings

I was there…. Their Glastonbury sets were even better… Awesome 🙌

I love this version of the song. Ill pull it up to listen as I ride my motorcycle these days.

All live versions by them are far superior to the album ones. Because they are real 🌟

Found you guys because this is one of my favorite songs ever...

I saw The Cure in Tinley Park, IL in 2001. I think they played such long sets that they had no opening act! Excellent band

The Boris Williams era on drums was the Cure's best era

High high high quality... ❤¿thecure?❤

Soooooo good! Sooooo good live! Dig these guys as much in 2022 as back in the 80s! Great review! 👍👍

Robert, how high are you? "Yes"

I saw The Cure, Violent Femmes and The Pogues at Kingswood Music Theater. Saw The Cure again along with Ten Thousand Maniacs at Exhibition Stadium.

GAC - Sailor next.. 🤔😄
