Robert is one of the most attractive people I’ve ever seen. His mannerisms, humor, expressions, way of speech. He has a delicately sensual way about him, you can hear it in his music too. Total heart throb!
He mentions touring Texas and this was the first time I saw them and was blown away! This was there "Disintegration" tour. I was 15yrs. Thanks for taking me mom. Best band ever. ♥️🌞🙌
Right with ya - saw them at Duke University, NC for the same tour. My dad drove me and four other friends - all bedecked in black, teased hair and makeup and, patiently waited for the whole show in the parking lot to drive us back to Winston-Salem. Thanks Dad, love you for doing that. 🖤
Yeah! But he knows when to shout too. There's an old interview of him on a roundabount and he yells at a screaming kid. I bloody laughed throughout the video
I'm sure I've read this interview but never seen/heard it. Good to have an interviewer challenging Robert, makes for a interesting conversation. Thanks for uploading.
Thank you for posting! I was always looking for an interview with him talking about morrisey 😆 I find Robert Smith so fascinating!! Really appreciate the upload 😊
What a great interview, too bad the last part was only audio - thanks so much for posting! 4:56 enjoyed the comment about having a physical deformity “ I have a hump” and squirming in his chair and commenting “ it’s like being in a boat!”
Lawl! Love the comeback about Lydon "I think HE's whimpy English disco" 🙃 And follow up by describing Lydon and the likes with describing them spot on.
@@TCDB I have recorded some onto DVD but that was with an old converter. My old Cure stuff is somewhere! Funny that a lot of this stuff on youtube now I used to have to buy on bootleg vhs from indie record stores!
@@TCDB Well it is Illegal here in the U.S. to sell bootlegs, but it wasn't a top priority for the police and these shops were small independent stores. You would NEVER find a bootleg in a major chain music store! Where are you from TCDB? Would you believe that I spent $105 for a bootleg record just to hear Ariel?! Crazy but I was an obsessed teen Cure fan :)
Their early work was a little too new wave for my taste. But when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello, but I think Huey has a far more bitter, cynical sense of humor.
He was just saying that he sometimes lies to journalists to keep things less boring so him saying he was an orphan was just a lie he was referring to 😊
@@affys7843 thanks...for a moment I believed it, he said it quite convincingly even if in a low voice like when he is ashamed ... and the woman was so serious and sad! 😊
They are just jealous because they can't write songs like you do and actually sing and you make it sound incredible and you have lots of good songs not just a one hit wonder. Theirs lots of bands that are out there and still haven't made one good song. They still suck.
@@bolegnese pay attention to the difference in the comments when it's a man interviewing and a woman. Supposedly every woman is flirting when it's just the usual body language.

His voice is so angelic, it’s beautiful

Yes I agree , i think his voice and he is beautiful. Ive been into Robert Smith ever since I was 8 years old...43 now. A very long time.
So must be you Kate ❤( also a veteran fan )

Robert is naturally funny. This is one of things that makes him so charming.
Robert face when she says "gloomy"
😂😂
Always articulate, always gentle in his speech. Long live Robert Smith 😌
Hes very shy. He doesnt give eye contact well. Hes lovely.
He mentions touring Texas and this was the first time I saw them and was blown away! This was there "Disintegration" tour. I was 15yrs. Thanks for taking me mom. Best band ever. ♥️🌞🙌
The Cure played Bronco Bowl in 1986. I saw the Cure in 1989 as well. Starplex. Brilliant. Perfect moment.
The Prayer Tour. Not the Disintegration Tour.
This is so sweet, I'm just getting into The Cure and I'm 14
Right with ya - saw them at Duke University, NC for the same tour. My dad drove me and four other friends - all bedecked in black, teased hair and makeup and, patiently waited for the whole show in the parking lot to drive us back to Winston-Salem. Thanks Dad, love you for doing that. 🖤
Robert's voice is like ASMR. He's super adorable.
I searched this Robert Smith interview only for his calming voice. It really is like asmr😁
His voice is like soft velvet
Yeah! But he knows when to shout too. There's an old interview of him on a roundabount and he yells at a screaming kid. I bloody laughed throughout the video
@@askingforthemoon yeah, it was pretty funny :))
I love the cure and Robert smith is a musical genius
Had this on VHS decades ago, but never saw this unedited version. Thank you for sharing! BTW I LOVE his voice. SWOOOOON :)
Excellent interview. She asked some good questions. Good rapport too.

I'm sure I've read this interview but never seen/heard it. Good to have an interviewer challenging Robert, makes for a interesting conversation. Thanks for uploading.
I love Robert Smith 🖤🖤🖤

Thank you for posting! I was always looking for an interview with him talking about morrisey 😆 I find Robert Smith so fascinating!! Really appreciate the upload 😊
His hair, his soft voice, his charm, his style, he is just amazing 🖤🥀
Thank you so much for the timestamps. I wanted to go see some things he was talking about at times.
video came up on my suggestion feed, ecstatic to say the least, then I clicked the "subcribe" button after looking at the plethora of "cure" content.
What a great interview, too bad the last part was only audio - thanks so much for posting!
4:56 enjoyed the comment about having a physical deformity “ I have a hump” and squirming in his chair and commenting “ it’s like being in a boat!”
That's a reference to young frankenstine
@@thunder_heads I love that Mel Brooks movie - too funny!!
oh my....never saw this. congrats and thank youuuu
Lawl! Love the comeback about Lydon "I think HE's whimpy English disco" 🙃 And follow up by describing Lydon and the likes with describing them spot on.
He was also right about Morrissey and 30 years later he's still right about both of them lmao
@@Falxifer95 Exactly. And he's more musical than both imo
Thank you for posting this interview. I've been looking for it for years. You are doing a wonderful job! :)
SHE has asked here among the most trenchant questions. GREAT interview. and I know them all, you know. brilliant stuff.
Why am I drooling?
I love his voice, it’s so relaxing
Thank you! Amazing
Great interview!
He is beautiful and the voice
Have this on VHS Somewhere in the boxes. Love them still.
If you don't want to lose your VHS tapes, it is recommended to convert them to digital before they become unwatchable due to tape decay.

@@trey5667 Good for you! In my country I've never seen bootleg VHS tapes in any stores. Only records, CDs and audio tapes.

@@trey5667 Yeah, it was more hard and much more expensive to get these things in the pre-Internet days than today.
I live in Hungary.
Great interview. The hostess actually knows what she is talking about and is asking intelligent questions.
A good Interviewer
She was a good interviewer
I love how Robert called out Morrissey early! He knew
he is such a cutie patootie honestly i adore him
He’s such a little weirdo!! I love him 😍
Buenísimo genial muy copado, una masa. Gracias por compartir saludos desde argentina 🇦🇷 💙...
her american mind implodes at his every answer
he was gorgeous!!

I thought you were talking about Huey Lewis! And you are. Ha!
I thought it was Barbara Walters for a second based on her voice because I was doing the dishes while listening. Good interview
I believe it's Barbara's clone... at least the same petri dish or test tube!🤔
Robert is soooo correct about The Smiths mainly Morrissey being arrogant !!
I love their albums, but in terms of Morrissey, of course he’s correct.
Kooky 😍
Morrisey >> The professional intellectual haha he is not wrong!
Robert was so right then about Morris and even more so now, Morrisy is an arse
I’m just big boned I caught in between pizza
He is orphan??!!
Maybe I don't understand
He was just saying that he sometimes lies to journalists to keep things less boring so him saying he was an orphan was just a lie he was referring to 😊
@@affys7843 thanks...for a moment I believed it, he said it quite convincingly even if in a low voice like when he is ashamed ... and the woman was so serious and sad! 😊

wow, this woman is so creepy and all over him....
???
I’m sick of seeing comments on interviews conducted by women and the claim that they’re being inappropriate!
@@sarcasticallyrearranged she werent being that inappropriate but she was touching his hand she definitely fancied him

Awesome, except Morrissey is god.
The feud continues to this MF day!!! Lmao
Ew no
Morrissey is trash lmao only good thing is his music
Morrissey is dependent on The Smiths' music.Still.
He trudges along.
Morrissey is great but he’s right. He’s
a douche
Excellent interview - her knowledge, choice of topics and ease of conversation seemed to really put Robert in a more talkative and informative mode.
Huge respect for slagging the Smiths off when the worship of them was at it's height.
Fr not just that but he clocked Morissey's problems early
Thank you! Wonderful
Always articulate, always gentle in his speech. Long live Robert Smith 😌
