1. I was that guy who always loved Robert Smith and The Cure.

After ten long years they have a new album out this year. He wrote every song and produced it his own eccentric self. It's his record but he kindly allows the others to use the band's name. haha

I believe "Songs Of A Lost World" is as good as anything The Cure has released to date, and I admit it gives me goosebumps. ...Robert Smith does indeed look much worse for the wear, and perhaps darker.

2. BTW.... When looking up "Fragile Thing" I found this gem

It's Smith and sensational upstart Olivia Rodrigo singing a live duet of "Friday I'm in love". And I'm in love with this version. I hope she gave him some makeup tips.

4. Its fun to see this ... duets you'd never imagine.

The Cure fans range in age from teens to 70s in every part of the world. They've just kept on going being The Cure.

Robert Smith is quite eccentric. I think he's a mad genius. I was floored when Fragile Thing/Songs of a Lost World came out. I like listening to his recent interviews since that release too... he's quite thoughtful.

3. Covered This

Back when it was a hit.
We covered a lot of their songs. As much as I like this song, we didn't cover it for long. Not sure why.
Perry was only 65. And, died on Christmas day. Kind of a bummer.
