    Love the haunting sound of The CURE since I was a teenager. Long carreer : after 40 years, Robert Smith became a Legend all over the world. This man is still so amazing, kind, brilliant, creative and charming ! Just like heaven...

    i love hearing him talk about how they could carry on without simon. but the only time they ever put out less-than great albums was when simon wasn’t in. it’s not about the members but in a way, robert and simon are the blood and the soul of the cure

    He’s so young here, 28 or 29.
    The hardest thing is to look at him & realise Disintegration is in his future.
    I’ve listened to it six times in the last couple of days. It’s astonishing.

    The reference to Lol as a blanket is a direct consequence of Lol problems with alchool. He was kicked out during Disintegration album recording, because he was always drunk. Lol took many years to recover but in the end he behaved like a man and apologized to everyone. Lol is back into the band, altough he is not an active member. Much of what the band is was merit of Lol, everyone knows that.

      Lol was in serious trouble with boozing. Everybody knew it. but him. He got kicked out as a measure of intervention. Remember the core of the band are family. And Robert kept Lol on the payroll, long after he wasn't involved with the band. And when Lol tried to sue Robert and Simon, he was still out of his mind. Lol is not like that anymore. He got his mind clear, and even though he is not physically in the group anymore, he is still family with Robert and Simon.

    • @NickB-md1oy
      @NickB-md1oy Před 4 lety +14

      Lol did what he had to, and so did Robert and the band. The fact that he’s credited with writing on disintegration despite is minuscule Role, and that they didn’t remove him from the band until after the album was done, shows how much they value him and care about him. Sending someone away is not always abandonment.

    7:46 I am very much interested about the fact that group members left and come back after years. But what is Roberts philosophy behind that. He explains it in this interview. But I didn’t get the point. Does anybody can explain what Robert tries to figure out?

    • @GT380man
      @GT380man Před rokem +1

      I think he likes working with people who want to work with him, that contribute to their output & is a positive force in the band (or at least not a corrosive force)

      He didn't bash Pornography, he said he was really proud of it. It was the music critics at the time who bashed it and gave the impression that it was poorly received.

    Smith should really cut his hair and go back to something like this, especially now that he's gained tons of weight. The current Gene Simmons helmet/abandoned bird's nest "look" is not at all flattering to him. Looks like a crazed melting cat lady or a grandma that cakes on her makeup now...
