The Cure - "Pictures Of You" | Live at Sydney Opera House 

With this be available in a Blu-ray format ? (or even the curation 25 festival with the trees was a also a great set.) I still come back to both of those because they were so well done and capture such a nice energy. They're complimentary, really.

Perfectly said. The only band that can immediately thrust my mind back to when I was in college. Best friends around me, best music, best smoke, best times ⏲️

True

Sub "Album"

It's like he's still 30 years old

Absolute Perfection. Beautiful beyond words

Masterpiéce!,🌏🌍

I was his mum n dads postman in Crawley 89-92

Love that description. Haunting. Yes it is. Completely.

It does seem to hit harder as we age for sure. Right in the feels.

I’m cry every time I hear their song, not only the lyrics but how they play, sing and perform it is absolutely stunning 🥰♥️🥺😢😭😍

I served in the Australian Army for a short part of my life. One day we had an American pilot on transfer training from the U.S flying the chopper into a jungle training area in North Queensland. This song was blasting on the sound system. We had never really heard of "The Cure" When I hear this song now I can close my eyes and be transported back to another time when my mates and I were so much younger. I have loved this band ever since that day.

Agreed.....Haunting

Incredible how you crafted the perfect words to convey the feeling of this song, beautiful comment!

You are so right 👍

So true! It’s my favorite Cure song.

Really? To me it's just a nice song, one of many Cure songs that I've listened to from the late 70's to late 80's period of the Cure. It's had no impact on my life whatsoever..😅😅 ☮️☮️

@@leethomas255 i suppose you're not from that timeline ?

@@stefhenrion2580 i don't understand what you mean by 'that timeline'. Do you mean from the 1980's or any time between 1980 and 2023? I've listened to lots of music from the 80's, so what is your point Stef?

Hello, I really appreciate the love and support I get from you all my lovely fans I sincerely hope you never stop listening to my music 🎶❤

​@@RobertSmithofficialThank you for all the great music and memories

Cool beans.

Totally agree..

you just did. :)

I agree

Agreed

Bass is so important to the Cure sound. 100% accurate.

SOL SHALEM ... I grew up with him... I would add “Almost” sounds the same. A bit of a change, but nonetheless good job!

I have to disagree with you on that. I love The Cure and saw them live in the early 90's at William and Mary. All they did was just stand there and barely moved. You could not understand a thing Robert said in between songs. It was one of the worst concerts I have ever been to. I still love them but will never pay to go see them.

Stephen Bard even now? This video makes it pretty clear that they’re committed to sounding excellent onstage.

@@StephenBard Then you clearly never listened to them live. Bands don't have to bounce around on stage to be interesting. And after you listen to them talk a lot, you understand what they are saying most of the time. It took me a while to be able to decipher most of what Robert says, but sometimes it is also just hard to hear people when they talk live. It is a shame that you have chosen such petty reasons to miss out on one of the best live bands out there. Especially in their prime. They are not nearly as good now as they were in the early to late 90s. But you go ahead and keep on having your weird arbitrary reasons to judge people, and keep seeing bands that are actively checking their fitbits during shows, and I'll watch people who focus on playing well and sounding good. And who actually write and play music I like. And clearly you didn't watch Simon as he doesn't usually stand still that much.

@@eboethrasher I was born in 95 and I love their music . I would for ever grateful to see them live before time runs out specifically this song I just feel so at home

With all due respect, I must say it's not just "that bass"... It's Simon's bass at his best ❤❤❤

They truly take you for an amazing musical journey. Then BAM, the voice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What a ridiculous thing to say. I bet you're the kind of person that only ever listens to old records & thinks they're in the position to comment on the music of today There are some absolutely incredible young bands kicking about, boomer

No doubt!!! The best song ever.

@@MarioFlores-nn4if é mágico! 🇧🇷

Lost génération

I’m 70 and I just discovered this beautiful song. How lucky you are finding them in your youth.

@@virginiaknighten4687 : Definitely. The mid/late 60's and 70's laid the foundation for what came about later. In fact, The Cure began formally at the tail end of the 70's. Having said that, the 80's was indeed a magical decade and the album 'Disintegration' from The Cure capped off the 80's in the most stellar and appropriate way.

@@Lunatic4Bizcas I have had music in my life as far back as 5 years old...I love discovering new artists and songs...No Music No Life...

Same voice, same spirit. Timeiess.

I was born in 95 im so happy and lucky to have them still living in my life time . I can’t believe his voice is still exactly the same 🥲

bet you felt so proud in that moment!

WHAT....A.....MOMENT IN TIME. You "just smiling" was both priceless and subtle genius. Great stuff.

A gift for that moment...Robert's Manager wrote back to me recently when i sent it to Robert...i think they got it! "" WHEN HE SMILES, WE KNOW HE'S ROBERT SMITH "" CHORUS. ROBERT'S TRAVELLED MILES AND MILES, AS HE'S SMILED.. FOR MILES AND MILES, AND WHEN HE SMILES, WE SEE HE'S NO MYTH, THEN WE KNOW, WE HAVE SEEN ROBERT SMITH, WE KNOW WE'VE SEEN ROBERT SMITH, SO PURE, AND WE KNOW WE'VE FOUND "THE CURE", YES..WE KNOW WE'VE FOUND "THE CURE". Verse 1. His voice is so familiar, as, Their songs, they bounce along, PRE-CHORUS. AND WHEN ROBERT SINGS, "PICTURES OF YOU", HE MAKES US REALISE, WITH THOUGHTS HE CAN'T DISGUISE, RADIATING FROM HIS EYES, SOME DAYS ARE FILLED WITH BLUE. CHORUS. ROBERT'S TRAVELLED MILES AND MILES, AS HE'S SMILED.. FOR MILES AND MILES, AND WHEN HE SMILES, WE SEE HE'S NO MYTH, THEN WE KNOW, WE HAVE SEEN ROBERT SMITH, WE KNOW WE'VE SEEN ROBERT SMITH, SO PURE, AND WE KNOW WE'VE FOUND "THE CURE", YES..WE KNOW WE'VE FOUND "THE CURE". Verse 2 That hair, still long upon his head, His tunes, they're still so cute, PRE-CHORUS. AND WHEN ROBERT SINGS, "PICTURES OF YOU", HE MAKES US REALISE, WITH THOUGHTS HE CAN'T DISGUISE, RADIATING FROM HIS EYES, SOME DAYS ARE FILLED WITH BLUE. CHORUS. ROBERT'S TRAVELLED MILES AND MILES, AS HE'S SMILED.. FOR MILES AND MILES, AND WHEN HE SMILES, WE SEE HE'S NO MYTH, THEN WE KNOW, WE HAVE SEEN ROBERT SMITH, WE KNOW WE'VE SEEN ROBERT SMITH, SO PURE, AND WE KNOW WE'VE FOUND "THE CURE", YES..WE KNOW WE'VE FOUND "THE CURE". BRIDGE to final PRE-CHORUS and CHORUS(x2). AND I'M SURE WE'VE FOUND "THE CURE", A LONG TIME AGO, AGO, AND THANK THE HEAVENS, THEY EXIST, AS THEY'RE SO HARD TO RESIST, AS THEY TAKE TO THE STAGE AGAIN. PRE-CHORUS. AND WHEN ROBERT SINGS, "PICTURES OF YOU", HE MAKES US REALISE, WITH THOUGHTS HE CAN'T DISGUISE, RADIATING FROM HIS EYES, SOME DAYS ARE FILLED WITH BLUE. CHORUS. ROBERT'S TRAVELLED MILES AND MILES, AS HE'S SMILED.. FOR MILES AND MILES, AND WHEN HE SMILES, WE SEE HE'S NO MYTH, THEN WE KNOW, WE HAVE SEEN ROBERT SMITH, WE KNOW WE'VE SEEN ROBERT SMITH, SO PURE, AND WE KNOW WE'VE FOUND "THE CURE", YES..WE KNOW WE'VE FOUND "THE CURE". CHORUS. ROBERT'S TRAVELLED MILES AND MILES, AS HE'S SMILED.. FOR MILES AND MILES, AND WHEN HE SMILES, WE SEE HE'S NO MYTH, THEN WE KNOW, WE HAVE SEEN ROBERT SMITH, WE KNOW WE'VE SEEN ROBERT SMITH, SO PURE, AND WE KNOW WE'VE FOUND "THE CURE", YES..WE KNOW WE'VE FOUND "THE CURE". Outro. Finito.

That is pretty awesome Mr. Dean. Good taste carries down the line in your clan obviously. Well done all the way around.

aww... that just made me cry and smile at the same time. Xx

your cultured 👍🏼

Baby I'm in my 40s and here I am all these years listen to this beautiful piece as if I was a teenager watching the video on MTV and hearing the lyrics for the 1st time capturing my soul.

I can literally remember hearing it for the first time, it's a magical song!!

53 and i still time travel to the 80's via the Cure .. Push-Forest and other non commercial songs

This is the 1 song that from the very first time I heard that beautiful guitar I Knew it would actually change me. And then I listened to it in it’s entirety....and while I cannot remember hearing another say that I’ve had a history of being at a loss for words, I’m unable to communicate anymore. My body is quivering from this music. I probably shouldn’t say : that this is a song, sung by the greatest singer ever...that could prompt a sane person to leave their life and walk the earth to find another way or thing or person or purpose or ‘something’ that could compare to how this song makes me feel (and I don’t even Know how it makes me feel. I said that already, right?).....How can they be so talented? I love The Cure forever!

They will. It’s the second song. I took my daughter to the concert in Houston last week. Amazing show. You will not be disappointed. Enjoy!

You're probably there now?

You have a kind heart supertrooper! Wishing you all peace in the world.

don huan it’s like a cool breeze...

The intro is one of the greatest of all time. I'm a listener of very eclectic music tastes including psychadelic metal like "Tool" but this is the best intro of a song ever. Hands down. Tool is the greatest band ever, but, this song alone may be better than anything tool ever made. To put it into perspective, I'm a fan of modern and old pop rock, punk, pop punk, psychadelic metal, psychadelic rock (young and old), grunge etc. It's crazy how good this song is.

yeahhhhh !!! the best intro i ever heard no doubt !!!!

Abishek Chopra ……than Robert.

Me to!

The ending chord progression over which that lyric is sung is awesome. And when the change to it comes, it's just magic. After hearing mostly the same few chords for the preceding several minutes, the closing phrase hits like a hammer.

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

…than to feel you deep in my heart

Hello, I really appreciate the love and support I get from you all my lovely fans I sincerely hope you never stop listening to my music 🎶❤

I was 20, same here!

19 here.

Same...This album is timeless..

I was 21 at that time. Great memories

I was 14, and my mom and I now laugh about at the time she was worried.

Ho 74 anni .Anch'io li adoro. Parlano direttamente alla mia anima.

Es gibt keine bessere Band auf der Welt als the cure. Sie sind kreativ gut und einfach wunderbar

Royden Bellman 48 hours is hauling!

1991 was such an eventful year

@@wyattlavigne Sure was man. I had trucker friends who later said they just simply did not believe me. lol I did it and clocked about 140 to 150 kilometres per hour at least almost the whole way. Amazing I never got a speeding ticket. Did not sleep a wink, ran on pure adrenaline out of necessity and the beautiful tunage.

@@roydenbellman my dad did it three times. 57 hours was his best. 110 or so he said was his average. Grats on no ticket.

@@wyattlavigne Cool. Was driving a Volkswagen Jetta, one of those driveaway deals they had at the time where you drove mainly old folks cars cross country for a fee. Not sure if they have that going anymore, been living in Asia for the past 16 years. No driving for me over here man. :) And yes thanks for the grats, lol, incredible I did not get stopped by a nasty cop with distaste for my long hair and look. A gander at my shattered leg in a cast and my crutches and maybe I would have gotten sympathy and no ticket? Nah. Cops are cops in the States and Canada, ha ha, remember crossing the Peace Bridge in Buffalo I think it was and being stunned by how fast ppl were driving in and around Toronto especially the QEW. Way faster than our American neighbours. Speaking of fast, thanks for the swift reply. Cheers man!

Love it and iam 65 and love the cure,41 years and counting they must be doing something right

Diane Greene , hey! Diane , respect 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Robert Smith : thank you, my mistake

Probably a deaf guy ;)

Best song ever 👌

K-POP FANS😁

I thought the best song ever was "Ah! Sweet Mystery of Life."

Un idiota que le gusta el REAGETTON 🤷‍♂️

As I have reached 65 and still darn good at his age as well!💜🎸🥰

Highly recommend you obtain their DISINTEGRATION album. You will not be disappointed!🎸
