I just love looking at his face.

He has the cutest face

Oh Robert Smith ive always had such a crush on you , creative, deep , genuine . Mrs Smith must be a wonderful woman to have captured his heart.

"I figured they'd have me as a gay cat or something, so I said yes"

I went to the bloodflowers show and it wasn't gothic, but it was truly the best of the cure. They played faith, plainsong, sinking and a handful of other moody types of songs. In fact they opened with plainsong and timed it so that it began just as the sun was setting. They were amazing.

Really soft soul , seems like such a great guy and his songwriting and music is almost greater

This man is not from this planet, he is so special . And I thought I was the only one who liked him as a man, even now at 61

Robert thought he'll be voicing a gay cat in South Park. This is everything.

What a huge impact on me as a teen to read an interview/see an interview with Robert Smith (and enjoy the music of course) and hear an adult, a creative and successful artist, talk about not compromising, not buying into shallow culture, not measuring yourself against capitalist success, reading novels, knowing what worked for him and working by instinct towards quality, and being soft-spoken and himself--an anti-hero-worship factor built in. A huge relief and confirmation.

Imagine having HIM as the oncle of your kids... he must be sooooo sweet with them ❤️

He is the most unassuming and down to earth person! Most performers with his level of success don’t make such an effort to fully and honestly engage with an interviewer.

This is probably the best interview I've seen with Robert. He's more relaxed and open here and it makes for a great watch. Kudos to the interviewer.

love this - obviously kudos to the journalist for making robert feel so comfortable here...

I could listen to him all day long! Love his voice and he’s such an insightful person.

Brittany Spears and The Cure... I would never have believed that phrase could have been put in one sentence if I hadn't heard it straight from Robert Smith. What a great interview he is.

I hope they tour one more time after 2023

I love how calming he is

Robert Smith makes living now beautiful...

There will never be remotely another Cure or anything next to Roberts lyrics LONG LIVE THE CURE!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's very telling that Robert made the band listen to Disintegration and Pornography as a model for Bloodflowers. It's the first album where The Cure sounds like they're self-influenced.

What kind of magic Is this???!!!i'm hypnotized

Bloodflowers is very underrated album.

Obviously his singing voice is perfection but his speaking voice & accent is so relaxing. He should do ASMR or read audiobooks😍I am eternally grateful for Robert Smith and The Cure🖤🥀

Awww, Robert experienced unrequited love.. 💔 My hug hormones are in overdrive now

So sad that maybe I’ll never meet him :(

I could listen to him talk for ages.

There are no words to describe how amazing this man is. ❤️

Thank you for posting this. I never heard Robert speak so specifically about his songwriting process. Fascinating to hear about the gestation and development of his craft. And as always, his intelligence, wit and decency come shining through.

He is so beautiful and he's given us so much and I feel like he has a sadness right now in his heart and it breaks mine. Thanks for the amazing 2023 concert Robert and all the new songs.

I really like his voice, when he sings and speaks

I loved Bloodflower, I cried listening to bloodflowers, looking into the night out the window of a suburban train in Paris, just like I cried to Pornography back in 1982.

Robert Smith is such a sweetheart. I love you so much, angelkisses :-*

i havent seen an interview like this - where he is talking and refelcitng quietly, without loud musice or an interviewer who is LOUD like th American's. its really great, thank you for posting!

Hes so precious and gorgeous🖤🖤🖤

This interview is a gem ✨ I have always tried to understand how a great songwriter took his inspiration to write songs (first with Martin Gore who I consider at the same level as Robert) and I imagine him with a sheet and a pen always beside him: while he is in bed, during the lunch and even sitting on the toilet!

Bloodflowers is an exceptional album.

He's incredibly funny.

he is such a perfectionsist ... i adore him so! im ghetting a tatoo of him on my shoulder in two weeks time ...

This interview is great! I really enjoy his candidness, but Robert Smith attracts the most insane fangirls in the world, it must be so surreal

Can´t help myself, I just adore him.........

Killer Smile Robert Smith💋

I've watched this before and decided to rewatch it. I got a kick about what he said about not being in charge in the house. He sounds just like my husband. Love this!

Bloodflowers is my favorite Cure album. Got the picture disc a few months ago!

Great interview! The Cure fan since 1985

I so love to hear Robert Talk & Sing. That Voice In Every Way- sweet, sexy, smooth, gentle, exciting, the range of it & so dreamy with those lyrics to the love songs & I just can't get enough of him. So many Women, including me want to Be With Him & Be The Subject of those songs & men want to Be him! He is definitely a Very Sexy & Hot Man, Handsome, Intelligent & Very Married! How Does Mary Do It- knowing everyone wants him? And still going strong in 2020 & finally got inducted into the Music Hall Of Fame in 2019! About Time! A Musical Genius, Truly Unique & a True Artist. The Cure's Music is Timeless! I love the 70s 80s & 90s & They are my no.1 Favorite Band. Love Love Love You Always. Hope to meet Robert & the band some day. Saw only once in Mansfield, MA.1996 & it was Fantastic- it was like a communion, it had this feel to it of everyone feeling the same. Lots of black dress & black & dark red lips. A Great Time. I was 36 & so into them. I started out on a home made tape cassette a friend found of 3 Imaginary Boys & It had a mix from other albums on it, Lullaby, Plainsong, Lovesong, Same Deep Water As You, Prayers For Rain, Pictures Of You, & I was hooked. I started looking them up in the music stores- & bought the Black & White album w/A & B sides. Fell in love all over again. I think the only song I ever heard on the radio by them was Just Like Heaven! And they are so versatile I had no idea, & the other stuff would never get on the radio! You Had to buy the albums to get those songs! So glad I did! "I will always love you" !❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤Yes I bought a T- Shirt & I still have it & wear it.The whole groups photo of the front of them & back of them on front & back on a black shirt. 😃

I absolutely love this interview...he is divine.thanks so much for sharing this!

Brilliant interview, from the heart.

aw i really love Wild Mood Swings, its fun. but then again I just love listening to Robert's voice no matter what aha. He's so handsome in this interview

Robert Smith is so cute

I love when he calls himself a control freak

What a remarkable honest and intelligent man. Perhaps that's why I always loved his music without knowing him behind the media image.

How come we don not get to hear the questions he´s beeing asked?

Well done interview with Robert! He seems so relaxed and comfortable. Thank you for sharing ❤

28:06-This is how it feels to be a doctor in the US with insurance companies. Thanks for this interview. Enjoyed it.

Three Imaginary Boys is The Greatest Album Ever Made

Seventeen Seconds is the Shiznit! amazeballs music man.

You're wonderful thankyou absolutely gorgeous x

This should be recorded on a DV tape. The quality is pretty good to be recorded on the 2000 ;) The VHS isn't have that good resolution 🤔🤔 Nice archive !!! 👍👍 I'm a The Cure fan thanks to my mom

I love you Robert! Wish you were my husband!

Amazing interview!

I’ve seen ‘em three times and have not heard them play ONE song from “Bloodflowers” live. I wish they’d have played at least one....

The man is a GENIUS!

Beautiful soul ❤️

I only bought one or two albums at a young age and then immediately came across the 4 disc box set of b-sides at the local record store if you haven't heard those I suggest there's like four versions of most songs

Great interview....

Fantastic interview !!! RSX

Lovely clarity, lovely art

Father Bob, NEVER regret or feel unfinished with Wild Mood Swings. It iS one of my favorites. I'm also surprised you speak of fans not liking it except true Cure fans. When I met you in Detroit and we went club hopping and stayed the night at the Renaissance Center on Head on the Door tour, I talked with you about true Cure fans. You contradict yourself here. You told me you despised that elitism. Now you applaud it. You made me cry that night. Glad you can see more than one way now. Thanks for the extra t-shirts, although I know not what they mean. Always, Claudia ❤

Love !

Wonderful guy

Good luck with you new music adventures ♥️

This is glorious. Thanks so much for saving and uploading this.

Merci à vous génial l'interview de Robert Smith qu'elle époque 👏👏👏👏👏❤️❤️

Meu primeiro amor...Ownnn homem lindo!!!

this is weird to not have the questions he's answering...

He looks so much better without the makeup.

Bare is brilliant..........wild mood swings.......as is Treasure..........

9:37 no singles tonight, it’s only dark long songs - which concert is Robert talking about? I must watch it.

I suggest some of you listen to bloodflowers again. It's very good.

I do like to hear some thing different time & again.

Wild Mood Swings stood the test of time nevertheless. I remembered being disappointed when it came out, but over the decades it grew on me big time. It reminds me of KMKMKM in a lot of ways

Ironically Maybe Someday is pretty much the only song from Bloodflowers I like and have on my playlist....

❤

So much sex appeal in this one!

BLOODFLOWERS is a phenomenal album! Any critics that say it is anything less are blithering idiots.

Robert runs this ship. He's in control!!! 😮

8:11 I completely agree

Robert's so hot here. I love when he doesn't shave too :)

That's a good thought to have,to be in it or have your music be there for a long time,to have quality in the music so it's time less.like elvis,bowie,Boleyn,,,

20 now

Bloodflowers is the last album , yeah right ...... 2004 The Cure

17:08 The Cure and 4:13 Dream say 'hi'

👍

two years ago and 2:11 was the first time I heard him laughing...

Ben Afleck with long hair :D

i just argues with hiim the whole time. "Bloodlowers is a really good album" No, it's not. "Maybe someday is the weakest song on the album" No, it's the best song on the album. To be fair...he said parts of wild mood swings were really good...thats true. I still don't get....as a long time cure fan...how Pornography and Disintegration are always talked about as being the best Cure albums...don't get me wrong i love them both...but Wish, in my opinion..is not only their best album...but one of the most perfect albums ever made...it's fuckin amazing...and will always be my favourite album by ANYONE...until i die.

Reading comments on his interviews and seeing people objectifying him is sooOoO gross and annoying, but anyways. Amazing interview, best musician (&Kevin Shields)
