Recommend me some Cure songs


Recommended Posts

Posted

Outside of a couple songs like "Love Song," "Pictures of You," & "Friday I'm in Love" I haven't really heard anything. I think I'll like them though. I've liked what I've heard so far.

 

So, any recommendations?

Pornography is pretty dire. Not in a bad way, but it's Joy Division-gloomy and maybe not the best starting point if the glossy "Pictures of You" and pretty much happy-smiley-9000 "Friday I'm In Love" are your reference points. I'd recommend the early singles collection Staring at the Sea to bypass some of the misteps of their earlier albums, and second Distintegration and The Head on the Door.

if my memory serves me, i believe i am the biggest cure-head on the board so here's my 2 cents

 

for albums the best that i would recomend are disintegration, pornography, head on the door, and kiss me

 

based on hearing some of the singles first though you may want to try wish or wild mood swings for more things in that vein

 

there are a few compilations out (greatest hits, single collections, live albums) that are a good sampling as well

 

songs (tried to pick stuff from all over the gamut)

 

cold

club america

anniversary

disintegration

10:15 saturday night

push

fear of ghosts

fascination street

burn

jupiter crash

homesick

form the edge of the deep green sea

siamese twins

A Forrest

jumping someone else's train

39

sinking

A japaneese dream

m

open

kyoto song

cut

the kiss

My two favourite and "anyone-who-listens-to-them-seems-to-like-them" Cure tracks are 'There Is No If' from Bloodflowers and 'Burn' from The Crow OST.

once you turn yourself into a cure fan, hunt down the b-sides. i think they compiled all the b-sides in 2003 or 2004.

 

the books they have on the cure are pretty cool. they even have pics of the one and only black cure member, some trumpet player.

 

then get your hands on these videos/dvd: the cure in orange, picture show, live in paris, 10 imaginary years (they play a set on the dvd which is all acoustic), and mtv unplugged (tape traders usually have this).

Isn't this guy trying to get STARTED on the Cure?

Best cure albums would have to be "Pornography","Faith","Disintigration", and "Seventeen Seconds"
