      @thevoid99 Před 5 lety +2

      for me, smith, gallup, tolhurst, williams, thompson, and o'donnell. it just has a fuller sound. as long as the cure has 2 guitarists, a keyboardist, a drummer, and simon, i'm cool with that line-up.

    The whole "Wish" album was so great, and still is, in so many ways....I was 25 when it came out, and the music and lyrics in it, marked and represented the very beginning of my maturity, and yet the apex of my spiritual freedom, which I still retain at 41. To me it also represented the point where my friends realized I wasn't stuck in a heavy metal cage like they were, but I was (still am) a combination of different styles of music, different, more intimate feelings, sad melancholy poetry....

      I was 14 years old and unwillingly cast upon that weird age where I thought the things we did when we were young and the pain of youth slipping away was more than my heart could take. I’ll never feel as intent as I did when I was young. To what once was and will never be again

    "To Wish Impossible Things"
    remember how it used to be
    when the sun would fill up the sky
    remember how we used to feel
    those days would never end
    those days would never end
    remember how it used to be
    when the stars would fill the sky
    remember how we used to dream
    those nights would never end
    those nights would never end
    it was the sweetness of your skin
    it was the hope of all we might have been
    that fills me with the hope to wish
    impossible things
    but now the sun shines cold
    and all the sky is grey
    the stars are dimmed by clouds and tears
    and all i wish
    is gone away
    all i wish
    is gone away
    all i wish
    is gone away

    Words can only diminish the implications here for the human experience, such regret, such nostalgia, such trauma, and such beauty. For surely if we could have everything we wanted, if we were gods and not mortal, then we would not be beautiful, we are beautifully unhappy, exquisitely unfulfilled, we beautifully quest and question, how boring and unattractive the life of the gods-----may we always yearn and always feel this beautiful pain,

    This reflects so well what I was going through when this album came out, and every time I listen to this album, it speaks about me, about who I was, how I lived, how I thought of things, how I matured, who my friends were, how young and free we were....how the natural development of life changed us....
    I am so blessed, to be among those who get Robert Smith's poetry!

    it was the sweetness of your skin
    it was the hope of all we might have been
    that fills me with the hope to wish
    impossible things
    but now the sun shines cold
    and all the sky is grey
    the stars are dimmed by clouds and tears
    and all i wish
    is gone away
    all i wish
    is gone away
    all i wish
    is gone away

    Boris’ drumming was amazing here, as essential as a heartbeat

    I would like just once in my life, to hear that at 00:27 when I start playing a song.
