Gorillaz - Strange Timez ft. Robert Smith - London O2 Arena, 11/8/21 (11 August '21)

Just 2nd song into the set and, with Robert Smith on stage, first of many highpoints tonight.
Please note, before looking to comment about the date being wrong, this was a UK gig, Damon is British, I'm British and so the date is in UK date format - 11/8/21 is 11th August 2021, not 8th November 2021.

Robert Smith of the Cure is such a lovely person. A very lovely, adorable awkward person with unbelievable talents. I admire him and adore him at the same time. Thank you for uploading and sharing this!

Robert's voice should be part of the human message to the others in space outer limits.

Roberto Smith: TOP. PURE GOLD.

Yeah!!!! 👌

[@raavenstark5905]

I'm so amazed by the voice of Robert Smith... he is getting old, not is voice. That's so rare to see old rockstars still rockin today

[@martinnewell7293]

seriously!! Hard to think of an old rocker who is not still rocking, or at least aspiring to!

[@davidsanderson5918]

Albarn and Smith's voices go so well together.

[@TheMadmonica11]

This is amazing! And Robert’s voice is soo good! And good to see concerts actually happening.

[@finlaymcdiarmid5832]

Im quite surprised because his voice was sounding very strained for a long time but it sounds much more natural now

[@terrydavenport7480]

Robert did a great job

[@mattlehnardt783]

makes me so happy to hear Roberts voice again, and just two days ago.

[@angephilp1274]

I saw The Cure in concert a couple years ago and Roberts voice really still is incredible, he sung for 3 hours straight. Just waiting on a chance to see Damon/Gorillaz/Blur

[@Droxcy]

Makes me happy seeing everyone jumping and enjoying shows again I cannot wait for my first show back

[@emikobcat]

The Cure filled 65,000 audience at British Summer Time at Hyde Park in 2018! And played for nearly 3 hours almost non stop!! Robert Smith is god like genius at 60 years young (compared to granddads like Rod Stuart or Mick Jagger or Brain May) and so was Simon and the others! Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame too. Wembley December 2022, we cannot wait!!

Robert Smith es de los pocos vocalistas que siguen teniendo su misma voz desde los siglos de los siglos. Es tan encantador, su vibra es bien tierna. 😍🥰😍🥰

[@djmarsone5209]

Bueno no lo conozco personalmente, pero si es una persona muy centrada, introvertido pero muy talentoso. Yo le daría mil años más de vida , más que los reguetoneros.

It looks like Robert felt naked without having his guitar strapped to him. What should I do with my hands, lol.

He does look awkward, doesn't he. Mind that one of the best live guitar players. His songs sounded better live than on the record.

[@emikobcat]

Such a great collaboration! I love Robert Smith and The Cure! (nearly 4 decades) NME God Like Genius Award winner! So do I love Damon, Blur and Gorillaz! The lockdown online gig waz great. I've seen The Cure at British Summer Time at Hyde Park in 2018 (nearly 3 hour long outdoor!) for their 40th anniversary then Glasgow 2019 among other timez like in Wembley. If you never seen them in live, you haven't lived. Steal one for Dec 2022! And of course Damon is very talented with his own solo projects like Doctor Dee and The Monkey the opera.

Late period Liz Taylor on a bender. But I agree with most people who have commented about how his voice has not suffered, at all, apparently. I think RS and Gorillaz are the 💣.
