Music video by The Cure performing The Caterpillar. (C) 1984 PolyGram Video International - Hudba
The most amazing thing about The Cure is that there musical range is SO HUGE and yet you instantly know it's them. From this to Fascination Street to A Forest to Hot, Hot, Hot to Lullaby. They can pretty much do anything.
It's because of the funny voice from the singer.
I love robert's brain so damn much
and so good of him to let us have a look inside :D listening to him always makes me just wanna write poems and clean my room and dance and hug everyone... or cry and feel cinematic and have introvert epiphanies and other such useful breakthroughs
Somos muchos!!!
Tim Burton must saw Robert when created Edward Scissorshand
@E Huh? I visited his exhibition, with some of his original sketches, and there were drawings of Edward Scissorhands (he didn't have a name back then, he scribbled "Gardener?" near the sketch) that predated the movie by quite some years. Who did create Edward Scissorhands according to you? Never heard of this before, curious to hear more about it.
Why did I read SciSsorLAND aushaushaus
And so Neil Gaiman when he created The Sandman/Morpheus.
Да, тоже об этом думаю! )))
Here's the influence and I'd suggest Robert Smith's look is influenced by this book too.......... www.nypl.org/blog/2013/05/15/influence-struwwelpeter
Seriously, how beautiful is Robert here!
His makeup is perfect haha
Yasmin Shelton He ussually looks beautiful hahaha
I prefer the TOTP rose strewn seated performance.....
Yasmin Shelton you look a bit like mary poole, I think.
+Yasmin Shelton Very beautiful but a little bit out of sync :-)
This was the first video I ever saw of them and I remember just thinking how Robert Smith was so unearthly and how his voice can't be pinned down, as if he is singing just above the ground. A few years later I waited outside the UNO Lake Front Arena in New Orleans until they came out the back door and I met all of them. Robert Smith hissed at me and borrowed my lipstick! He was trollied and very funny and to my young self, it was a dream fulfilled. Never to be repeated, such a memory.
did you keep the lipstick though....
This was my first as well…😮
What a lovely story. When I was 18 in 1995, I waited outside The Vic in Chicago to meet Bjork. It was frigid cold outside, so there wasn't a chance to speak, but she did autograph my Violently Happy CD single. :) It's a highlight of my life.
Lucky!❤❤❤
Omgggggg
Oh my god! I m 15 years old again! When I was totally obsessed with The Cure, Robert Smith was the man of my life, I wanted his hair and I could not understand What he was singing about because I could not speak English at all then but still, whatever he sang was gospel to my ears!
What a great and that was!
I'm 15 now and I'm kinda obsessed with them :)
I love this song because it has a lot of fun stuff in it
@@anamaric2395 same here 💕
Woah your epic
I was around that she too. Born 1973! This makes my troubled teenage years, happy !
One of the most underrated songs in the world. I heard it for the first time when I was 16, I used to walk around my district , smoke and listen to it thousands of times. Now I’ve grown up and every time I hear this beautiful song I go back to these pure beautiful times. It evokes so many emotions at the same time: sadness, happiness , melancholy and many other… there aren’t words in the world to describe my feelings while listening to it. Thank u, The Cure, for the greatest memories
True art.
Rest in Peace Andy Anderson :(
Sad he was good
This has to be one of their most innovative songs. We'd never heard music like that before. Just brilliant.
Er... I'm an old Cure fan (old enough to have seen them live with Phil and Andy) but you do realise this is more or less a ripoff/pisstake of 'Party Fears Two' by the Associates???
@@WS-fw9jg I never knew that and I own the 12 inch and album to which song you refer to (party fears two) by the Associates. My question is why did they "poke fun" at that song?
The way he moves i love this song so much,he should have done more dancing throughout the years lol
He’s moving in a very Siouxsie way.
Syd Barret, lol
I love The Cure, they are the best therapy for all diseases of your soul :3
100% agreed. that's what the cure is for me 😊💚
yeah, they're literally the cure ;)
❤
One of the most poetic and beautiful ballads ever recorded by a rock band.
There are not enough words to describe just how much I love this song.
Hello, How are you doing? It’s nice seeing you here
Me too
RIP Andy Anderson, a true talent. Will never be forgotten.
Robert's 'do is the key to this video. I stuck my fingers into a 120 volt wall outlet but still couldn't get my hair like his.
This song wouldn't have been possible without the contribution of Andy Anderson , send him good vibes , he's got cancer and he's on his last days :(
Or Robert's amateurish violin work.
🐛🦋🐛❤🦋🐛🦋
Respect and wishes to you 🐞🐜🐝🐺🦇🦉🦅🐴🪱Andrew Anderson
Cool name from south England 🏴
Caterpillar girl ‥‥芋虫女なんて、greatすぎる歌詞に曲も摩訶不思議なCure独特な毒々しさで、PVもmarvelousでなにも言うことない
I HAVE BEEN SEARCHING THIS SONG FOR LITERAL YEARS AND I FINALLY FOUND IT
That's one of the best feelings ever! :D
+Ana Claudia Lopes ikr
me too
Fuck me too .... ajajajjaajja ! ... Years and years without the name ajajjaja .. very singular song and crazy-- /Puta yo tambien! ajjajajja ... años y año sin el nombre . ajjajja .. cancion muy singular y loca ...
+Daniel Rodríguez se entiende en tu caso, al ser una canción en inglés si uno no sabe una parte de la letra es difícil... Curioso las otras personas que la buscaban, porque sabiendo inglés es más sencillo ubicarla
Lyrics:
Flicka flicka flicka
Here you are
Cata cata cata
Caterpillar girl
Flowing in
And filling up my hopeless heart
Oh never never go
Dust my lemon lies
With powder pink and sweet
The day I stop
Is the day you change
And fly away from me
You flicker
And you're beautiful
You glow inside my head
You hold me hynotized
I'm mesmerized
Your flames
The flames that kiss me dead
Judit Bernardini ....white dust my lemon lies
Judit Bernardini gracias
Obrigado
Bla bla bla
Obrigada!
These guys are true artists
I love Robert’s voice so much. It’s such a blessing
People think my voice is soothing but it’s still not his!
We are all beautiful
Omg Robert looks like My mom when she was 20
love you daughter+son
Well your mum must have been a beautiful woman that means :)
Bruh
jaaaajaja
HAHAHAHA
Rest in Peace Andy Anderson. :-(
R.I.P. Andy Anderson. Grande The Cure. Grande musica, como a maioria dessa banda.
faz muita falta :c
RIP Andy
Finally! The video is available in the US now. I had to get a VPN to get my fix, which was cumbersome. I love this song. One of my favorites by The Cure. I called my daughter my little caterpillar girl when she was newborn.
You flicker
And you're beautiful
You glow inside my head
You hold me hypnotized
I'm mesmerized...
Now my little caterpillar girl is expecting her own baby. 💝
Unapologetically unique and ethereal. I 🖤 Robert and The Cure.
Impossible to imagine the 80s without THIS band.
Such a unique , beautiful and talented person. It's mind blowing.
This is my bestest song ever 🐛💓
I am 50 & appreciating the beauty of The Cure at a deeper level than in my youth.
Substance is timeless.Bless you guys 💜
i discovered them at the start of quarantine and i haven’t stopped loving them since! They are amazing :)
❤😂🎉😢😮😅😊😢❤😊
Robert fills up every hopeless heart
Klaudija Vorihi :)
I could listen to him sing forever his voice is the most beautiful thing in the world
the cure the most awesome band ever
and than comes Faithless
Saw them in Glasgow two nights ago, awesome 👍
Awesomest*
Nah that would be The Beatles
You can't get more 80s than this song...
I remember the first time I listened/saw this song in TV and how shocked I was by the amazing combination of images and sounds.
IS HE THE CUTEST GUY OF ALL TIME OR IS IT JUST ME LIKE!?!??!??!
A mí tambu me encanta ❤❤
Just a beautiful song, written by a beautiful man inside and out 🖤
This song is absolutely beautiful and nothing produced these days gets anywhere near as good
Glastonbury ‘19,The Cure absolutely smashed it! What a voice,what a group,what a performance.
Brings back childhood memories. I was just a 5th grader way back then. They never aged and their music has been so consistently melodic, catchy and unique.
How can you not absolutely love this song???
Hey you should look up a band called The Doublejumps if you like The Cure
Nope @@MassiveFish-hp4pm
It’s so fruity and bonkers in a good way
The best band of all time, one of the best songs… 👍👍👍
Robert looks so perfect in this video, he is so perfect I just love him
*CZcams Kolay Video Indirme * youtubem.video/r/
Robert is so fucking cute here I could stare at his face for hours.
lidia sanz Isn't he!!!!!!!!!
Me too, and actually i do......
this song is so happy yet so strange and beautiful.
I love Robert Smith haircut's, its really cool.
I love Robert Smith's everything, its amazing.
Same.
Santiago Marín yeahhhhj
Smith's regular hairdresser had a day off, em, wait a sec...
Santiago Marín it look crazy
This was played at my mums funeral 4 weeks ago. surreal to have such happy memories together with my mum when it comes to this song (oh how we would sing along to this song, BADLY!!) ....and then to hear it on THAT day....amazing song and an AMAZING mum she was!!!
The originality, uniqueness and brilliance of it all. Looks, voice, interpretation, riffs etc etc etc plus yeah looking hot in this video.
This song makes me wanna live.
Une petite folie pleine de poesie...une pure merveille
The worlds two greatest bands: THE CURE and THE BLUE COLLARS. Thank God for real music.
Rob so adorable back then - I instantly fell in love .. I had a huge crush on him , his looks, his expression, his poetry...
Hey you should look up a band called The Doublejumps if you like The Cure
Same 😂😭
What a rare gem.
My youngest baby girl sent this to me for my Birthday today (Jan 10th 2023). Thank you Chula!
Saw them live yesterday, this was extremely beautiful, unforgettable, best night of my life... 19/04/13
Hello, How are you doing? It’s nice seeing you here
"The day I stop is the day you change and fly away from me."
Damn, that line resonates with me so much. I knew someone who was my whole world, but she out-grew me and left without realising I needed her way more than she needed me.
Rejection builds obsession. We tend to see the fantasy of an x rather than the reality more so when we are in a state of loss, it's our brains way of trying to cheer up a lousy situation.
This is one of my all-time favorite songs by the cure
Good rythm. The young Robert Smith was so hypnotysing ! Mesmering and so beautiful ! Memories of my youth. Still do love The CURE. Welcome in France
💮🦋 One of my favorite Cure songs... dreamy & sweet.
Absolute true
40 years ago today! Such a masterpiece
I'm in shock...
I wax 7😊
This video and song always make me so happy, all these years later. This is tied as my favorite Cure track.
.
Love this song, love The Cure and brings back so many amazing memories. First time when we heard it, back in the 80s, when we enjoyed listening to it in the car or just hanging out and the clubs that we visited, a lot of and only new wave clubs and even saw them in concert once, but we had nose bleed seats, so we just heard the music and hang out with some very cool people. We met people, enjoyed the music and just enjoyed life. What a great time it was for entertainment and music industry. Makes me so nostalgic. This music is timeless and ageless.
Such a brilliant band. Been one of my favourites for 45yrs
What a classic
Flicka Flicka Flicka
Here You Are...
Happy Birthday, Robert! 💖🦋🌸💖
Love Always
To see this band live in the 1980's was to touched by the hand of God.
Wasn't that New Order? Sorry couldn't help myself, The Cure were magnificent in the 80s.
IanHarris5070 .....and I did!
robert looked so perfect here!!!
I recall being totally mesmerised by Robert Smith in this video there was nothing like it at the time I've been a fan of the cure ever since and that's a long time 🇬🇧
This is the kind of stuff that makes me really miss the 80s..... and I was born in the 90s.
They were so young and crazy ! Charming. Lovely and very creative. Still love The CURE and Robert Smith 🖤💋
aah i love robert's dancing in this omg it's so cute
One of the greatest bands of ALL TIME❤🙏👌👌👌👌👌
Hey you should look up a band called The Doublejumps if you like The Cure
Grande Roberto!!!
There isn't another song like this.
Beautiful
Hello, How are you doing? It’s nice seeing you here
I love this so much! It’s very underrated song!
I was 17 and had loved the Cure since I was 13. .....
Dude on percussion is a beast... much respect ❤😊 and this is an amazing vocal by Robert.
Idc if this isn't my generation's music. It's still beautiful to me.
The cure is every generations music
I'm a millennial and I think The Cure is timeless.
The Cure en BUENOS AIRES!!!!!!!! FELIZ, I'M HAPPYYYY!!!!!!
Hello, How are you doing? It’s nice seeing you here
If you just follow the structure of this song, it's SO pure artistry. No better words, just art and a great video to accompany it.
THIS IS A PERFECT SONG!!!!!❤❤❤❤!!!!!
THIS SONG IS PERFECT!!!!
I LOVE!!!
they were having so much fun making this video ...
I love this song so much it’s so unique and weird I love it
The eeriness of the violins combined with the sweet melody is the reason I love this song.
it took me a while to get into this song as i eventually listened to "the top" which is an extremely underrated album.
This song is like if Buddy Holly’s “Everyday” was turned into a goth jam
This video is genus! Such musical perfection
Beautiful Robert!! Love your voice!! Your style and your hair!!!
He's only gorgeous I got my tickets yesterday for Dublin 2022. Can't wait. He's in his 60's now, and I'm 50.☘🧚♂️🤣
ah i got tickets aswell
I got the tickets too but it's for Prague and I'm 13
@@nat_6116 Good for you Natalie, I have a daughter 13 but she likes Olivia Rodriguez kind of thing 🤣👍🏻🇮🇪
The cure were incredible, this style, the creativity of Robert was exceptional, and their videos... My god how much I loved the cure...
This is actually a really sad song if you pay attention to the lyrics, so... very The Cure.
All his songs are;(

Mint Car!?

Hypnotising and mesmerizing leader of The CURE ! I will always love you caterpillar boy
The young Robert Smith was a caterpillar boy ! After all these years I don't know if he realize it ? He is so unic and special !
R.I.P Andy Anderson, excellent drummer!
What the caterpillar calls the end, the rest of the world calls a butterfly.
Lao tse
Rest in peace, Andy Anderson ❤
i cant imagine my world without this music... perfect (video too)⊙√⊙
robert reminds me of myself when i can’t make eye contact with people whilst they’re talking to me
This song always reminds me of my daughter 😭❤
Yay! Finally saw the 2nd show in San Diego so awesome made my teenage dreams come true!!❤❤❤they sound the same great band
The 80's were much more fun than nowadays
I love how they dont care jow they look as long as it fits the character theyre trying to portray
used to crush on Robert as a child and its still ongoing
