Charlotte sometimes (along with so many other literary references) tells me Robert has a very vivid imagination... He has an ability to tell a story; take you there, even when it was so many years before. Thank you, the Cure, for sharing your music with us... His wife must be the loveliest of ladies.

The First time I saw them live, but listened to them since 1980. They came to San Diego State University Open Air Theater in 1987. I was in the front row. The played a song I never heard called "New Day" I remember his vocals going higher and higher! Never have I heard Robert go that high. Utter mind blown! I remember telling this girl I was with, Have your ever heard such a voice go that high? She looked at me and said: "It's Robert Fucking Smith!" "That man could make icicles melt with his voice!" I went backstage and met the whole band in '96 during the wild mood swings tour in los Angeles at the forum. took a ton of pics that will be with me forever! Please release in Orange on DVD/Blueray. We cure fans waited too long!
