MTV Icons - The Cure ? - GoFuckYourself.com

Sarah_Jayne · 12-28-2004, 03:02 PM

Didn't even know this happened but just stumbled on the start of it on MTV2 here in the UK. Anyone seen it and should I be worried that someone is going to destroy a song I love?

candyflip · 12-28-2004, 03:04 PM

Hadn't seen or heard this, but cool regardless.

And I don't think we have much to worry about, no one can butcher a Cure song as bad as 311 killed "Love Song".

It's from the Adam Sandler movie, 50 First Dates. It's got a reggae feel to it. Blah.

I love that one too. I'm trying to find a download of the show, or even some of the songs.

If I turn them up, I'll send you some links.

That's my most favorite Cure song ever. I even tried to cover it when I was in High School.

We move like cagey tigers
We couldn't get closer than this
The way we walk
The way we talk
The way we stalk
The way we kiss
We slip through the streets
While everyone sleeps
Getting bigger and sleeker
And wider and brighter
We bite and scratch and scream all night
Let's go and throw
All the songs we know...

Into the sea
You and me
All these years and no one heard
I'll show you in spring
It's a treacherous thing
We missed you hissed the lovecats

We're so wonderfully wonderfully wonderfully
Wonderfully pretty!
Oh you know that I'd do anything for you...
We should have each other to tea huh?
We should have each other with cream
Then curl up by the fire
And sleep for awhile
It's the grooviest thing
It's the perfect dream

Into the sea
You and me
All these years and no one heard
I'll show you in spring
It's a treacherous thing
We missed you hissed the lovecats

We're so wonderfully wonderfully wonderfully
Wonderfully pretty!
Oh you know that I'd do anything for you...
We should have each other to dinner huh?
We should have each other with cream
Then curl up in the fire
Get up for awhile
It's the grooviest thing
It's the perfect dream

Hand in hand
Is the only way to land
And always the right way round
Not broken in pieces
Like hated little meeces...
How could we miss
Someone as dumb as this?

I love you... let's go...
Oh... solid gone...
How could we miss
Someone as dumb as this?

AlienQ - BANNED FOR LIFE · 12-28-2004, 03:31 PM

Standing on the beach
With a gun in my hand
Staring at the sea
Staring at the sand
Staring down the barrel
At the arab on the ground
I can see his open mouth
But I hear no sound
I'm alive
I'm dead
I'm the stranger
Killing an arab

I can turn
And walk away
Or I can fire the gun
Staring at the sky
Staring at the sun
Whichever I chose
It amounts to the same
Absolutely nothing

I'm alive
I'm dead
I'm the stranger
Killing an arab

I feel the steel butt jump
Smooth in my hand
Staring at the sea
Staring at the sand
Staring at myself
Reflected in the eyes
Of the dead man on the beach
The dead man on the beach

I'm alive
I'm dead
I'm the stranger
Killing an arab

Robert Smith = Prophet

Sarah_Jayne · 12-28-2004, 03:33 PM

deftones is a fantastic job btw...song always makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up

AlienQ - BANNED FOR LIFE · 12-28-2004, 03:36 PM

The Cure is my all time favorite band followed by Erasure.

Both are gone now for the most part but thats life.

cosis · 12-28-2004, 03:50 PM

Deepai · 12-28-2004, 03:52 PM

If you like the cure, check out The Rapture, and Interpol.

Burridge · 12-28-2004, 03:54 PM

It's always a pleasure discovering there is a minority on this board with good taste in music.

Love The Cure. Finally got to see them at Curiosa NYC in august along with Interpol.

Can't believe they let Blink 182 cover that shit though

How's the deftones one? should be ok at least?

You sure about that? Erasure is playing in January here in Florida.

Sarah_Jayne · 12-28-2004, 06:16 PM

The Cure and Erasure have both toured this year and The Cure had a top 10 hit this year.
