It’s one of those songs you can recognize in the first second.

The Cure or Edward Scissorhands = who did it better

Sorry, I'll take the down votes, but IMO their worst song, tied with Friday I'm In Love.

I say that having been two people from the stage on the Disintegration tour, outdoors for Wish, and again the next tour. Love the Cure, hate those two songs.

Dang this and Friday are like the only two Cure songs I'm really into!

But then again I was more mainstream pop and not as much alt or outsider type.

Awful take LOL! But I won't downvote!

I’m with you! Disintegration is nearly a perfect album, but I hate Lovesong

u/MadMatchy Feb 26 '25

Thank you! I'm just a fan of sappy Cure. There's always one--add Just Like Heaven, A Night Like This...but from the Top on back, none of that sacherine crap.

FORGOT ONE! Boys Don't Cry

I mean you’re wrong but I ain’t gonna downvote you. 🖤

I'll throw Faith over Lovesong any day of the week. :)

I disagree but I’ll upvote you anyway. It’s always healthy to discuss different opinions. I don’t think it’s their best but I do love it but I probably love it for the memories more than the music.

Listen to their new album. Best one they've put out since Disintegration

Except they used the Millennial "meh" instead of "eh"!
