Red Baron 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2006 Is this a gap in my collection that ought to be filled? Yes. Start with Disintergration then move to Boys Don't Cry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vivalaultra 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2006 The Greatest Hits album that came out a few years ago is actually quite a fair representation of the group's more popular and best known songs. If you just wanna get a feel for some of their singles or album highlights, you could go with that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest "Go, Mordecai!" Report post Posted December 13, 2006 This is hard stuff to find on Soulseek. The Greatest Hits album that came out a few years ago is actually quite a fair representation of the group's more popular and best known songs. If you just wanna get a feel for some of their singles or album highlights, you could go with that. I have "Friday I'm In Love" and "Lovesong." Everybody does, I think.

dubq 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2006 The Greatest Hits CD is okay, but I've always been partial to the collection of hits on Galore. Just a great, great CD from start to finish. The only tracks it's missing, IMO are Boys Don't Cry and Inbetween Days. Otherwise it's perfect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EricMM 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2006 I like the beginning and ending of Disintegration the best, those couple of starting and ending songs are so great. SO emo... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zorin Industries 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2006 I would go from "Boys Don't Cry" to maybe "Japanese Whispers" album wise. Once Robert Smith started cheering up the music took a dip, I think anyway. Pornographys without a doubt their best album, very bleak, but very good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vivalaultra 0 Report post Posted December 15, 2006 "Pictures of You" always makes me sad. It's my favorite Cure song and one of my favorite songs period. That one or "Letter to Elise". It's hard to fathom that Robert Smith is pushing 50. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Edwin MacPhisto 0 Report post Posted December 15, 2006 The Cure were all chubby and cheerful when I saw them. It was weird, but they played "A Night Like This," so all was fine by me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dubq 0 Report post Posted December 15, 2006 I haven't seen them live yet (or Depeche Mode for that matter) but my girlfriend has - several, several times. Which pisses me off. Everytime they come to town, I'm never here! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Coffin Surfer 0 Report post Posted December 16, 2006 Yes, "Disintegration" is probably the best. It's like a great, epic, melting pot of all Smith's ideas over the years with everything finally coming together as one. However,"Kiss Me, Kiss Me" is the most fun. A wonderful random collection with Smith and company running through pop, punk, funk, gloomy ambience, and whatever else they felt like doing. "Hot Hot Hot!!!" is still such a blast.

PLAGIARISM! 0 Report post Posted December 18, 2006 I like 'Plainsong' among others on there, but yes, I get sick of Disintegration by the end. They had enough good songs to warrant recommendation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Edwin MacPhisto 0 Report post Posted December 18, 2006 Disintegration is tough to get through all the way, just cause it's very dense and gloomy and long. I love the first half, though, and have no problem getting through that and then switching to something else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
