This, my friends, is the heart of Cure's music- dark, edgy and ethereal but at the same time romantic and pulls anyone in if given a chance. You can't quite pin it down if it is offering you a glimmer of hope or complete despair but it will surely take you on a journey like no other music. This is how music should be about but rarely anyone makes it for these reasons. The Cure's music is an honest expression and reflection of different aspects of life.

The Cure's original is better from a technical sense, is so deep and ethereal. Deftones did such a good ohmage to this at their Icon show. Blending the 2 bands, genres, eras together was beautiful.

I saw this live, from the 3rd row, in 1996 and when Robert did that slow pick slide, my face melted off.

The kids are finally catching up to the fact this band sounds EXACTLY like they do in concert as they do on an album. There aren't too many people or bands who can say the same. The Cure is pure and raw talent.

What he does from 1:38 is only in this live version. Unbeatable. Wish we had a Spotify release for the whole Trilogy gig.

The subtleness of this great song by an aged rock star's voice is so great to hear. I plan to listen to it in my final moments.

Robert Smith is one of very few singers who’s voices seemed to age like fine wine, it’s almost unreal. This song is pure sex, Robert’s voice just transcends it to a whole other level.

the "trilogy", dvd improves with age......incredible that it can be bought in London for a "fiver"........brilliant line - up as well....

If only tonight we could sleep In a bed made of flowers If only tonight we could fall In a deathless spell If only tonight we could slide Into deep black water And breathe And breathe Then an angel would come With burning eyes like stars And bury us deep In his velvet arms And the rain would cry As our faces slipped away And the rain would cry Don't let it end

Agree with you. The CURE : beaucoup de rêve et de poésie dans leurs chansons

Damn.. just Damn

From my Facebook wall: 35 years ago, the legendary British alternative rock band, The Cure, released the studio material called "Kiss me, kiss me, kiss me", which included this enigmatic melody. Whether you know the song, or have never heard it, I share with you my absolutely personal interpretation of its narrative. It seems that we are facing a Gothic elegy in which Robert Smith's guitar simulates the opening of a multidimensional door through which emerges a ghostly presence that dedicates a few words, in the form of lament, to another soul equally ethereal and, apparently, unattainable. At the end of the singing of this wandering spirit, the guitar closes the multidimensional door again while the keyboardist, evoking the sound of an ancient and mysterious flute, places on the door a seal in the form of a timeless spell. Many songs have a story to tell through the lyrics and instrumental sections in the melody and, sometimes very clear as this, also building an atmosphere conducive to give more solidity to the narrative. Millions of followers around the world love this phenomenal dark ballad, representative of the band's most refined and sublime gothic style.

Transcendant ...encore une magnifique chanson de Cure 😍

Wow only 156k views. It's a shame I wanna share this to the world

May be one if the greatest masterpieces of The CURE. Don't let it end !

A real masterpiece ! Another gem of The CURE and Robert Smith ! Exotic sound. Deep lyrics ! It's just perfect !

Robert est un Très Grand guitariste car il en joue toujours de manière inspirée et en complète osmose avec ses musiciens. Et tout en restant hyper créatif selon la guitare en main. C'est fabuleux. Tout est sublimé. Quel cadeau. c'est tout simplement somptueux et nouveau. Il a inventé des sons nouveaux, des effets nouveaux, des climats, et des paysages sonores nouveaux tout au long de sa carrière. C'est un maître en la matière pour les personnes qui jouent de la guitare. Cette inventivité est sublime. Magique. C'est ce son inimitable de The Cure. Toujours avec des nouveaux sons et une cohérence par rapport à l'œuvre. C'est assez rare pour être souligné. Bravo et encore bravo. Bravoooo oui bravo 🌹😘🌹👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Oui d'accord avec toi, Robert est un guitariste sous estimé (il ne fait rien de super technique ça doit être pour ça) mais il est dans la cour des grands gratteux, car il a un univers précis, rien qu'à lui et à la disposition de ses compos (plutôt que l'inverse chez beaucoup! ) THE CURE FOREVER (bon et les Beatles forever aussi forcément vu notre chaîne et notre groupe! :) )

This is an amazing live version of what Robert Smith wants us to see he dreams at night. Hands down the most unique and obscure of anything out there. Early Pink Floyd inspirations but without the loss of sanity.

If Only Tonight We Could Sleep after i this, no possibility

best song they did

La escuchaba en el 87 por las noches en las playas de Málaga con amigos y colegas con nuestros porritos, nuestras litronas y kalimochos y todos nos quedábamos en trance, mirando al cielo oscuro con estrellas ... Ahora me sigue pasando igual pero yo solo y sin tanta parafernalia. Unos whiskeys y a disfrutar. Canción mágica, extraña, relajante y sobre todo hermosa, tremendamente hermosa. Y este Robert Smith y sus The Cure tienen unas cuantas...

Every time Robert offers different versions of the instrumental arrangement. And they never be bored.

Thanks Deftones, both versions are awesome

So good!!!!

the intro takes you on a journy only acid can do

Sometimes I feel like this song like I want to fade away. Be able to breathe in deep black water........i don't want to exist
