FIRST TIME HEARING The Cure - Lullaby (Official Music Video) REACTION

[@josephsmall4270]

Great song. You should try "Pictures Of You" too.The whole "Disintegration" album is fantastic.

[@fallofcamelot]

If you do Pictures of You you need to listen to the eight minute version though. The longer intro really sets up the song.

[@zlattesboy]

He's already done Pictures of You! kzbin.info/www/bejne/qJfdq6FjdtakjJo

[@tammyhastings5761]

Robert Smith wrote this song because his dad used to tell him scary stories at bedtime :)

[@foggylegg6362]

Crap dad!

[@idfkwgo]

theres also many other theories about the song because robert has said different things everytime hes asked about it. hes very interesting in the way of you never know exactly what hes talki ng about

[@EnjoyableHandful]

I've always wondered if this song is about child abuse tbh

[@Arieeeee]

@@EnjoyableHandful Yeah I've heard the child abuse theory as well. I guess it's such a good song that it can be interpreted as any kind of horror one has experienced as a child.

[@isabellakendall1730]

no that’s a rumor he actually clarified it as his battle with addictions to drugs “Spider-Man” is his drug he can’t escape

A Forest from The Cure is another fav of mine. Definitely check that one out.

Definitely my fave of theirs ❣️❣️❣️

[@phailaphaila]

My most favorite! I was in a car crash and in the hospital and my friends brought me a Walkman with a cute tape. I played the forest over and over again. The forest in headphones is hypnotic and ethereal

[@MrBigspendn]

This is when bands had to really work to make great complex music. Artistic.

Exactly.

[@holgerschink1341]

"Disintegration" is a masterpiece from the beginning until the end....one of my personal favourite albums ever created.

[@robbiengall]

Same here! Right at my personal top, along with The Dark Side of The Moon by Pink Floyd. I love listening ti Disintegration before going to bed.

[@Hi-qe9gt]

I personally prefer ‘pornography’ but ‘disintegration’ is close

[@egilskallagrimsson2941]

Yep. A classic.

[@brandixx7453]

My most fav album of all time ❤ So SOOOOOOOO good. And meant to be played LOUD.

[@donnastrunk1745]

The Cure is never what you thought it was going to be. Robert Smith has such a beautiful voice, you think it is going to be peaches and roses but the lyrics will always have you thinking. How about some Fixx: Secret Separation or Red Skies at Night

[@kanevard]

Red skies at night, gosh that takes me back

[@florenciaalvarez3213]

Great suggestion Donna!!

[@msmrsro]

If you haven’t done already, please react to Echo and the Bunnymen, “the Killing Moon”. Total mood.

Heh, I'm about to do the same.

[@hypatian9093]

"What kind of lullaby is this?" A great one ;) It's been more than thirty years since I first danced to this song, and I still love it. You could simply call it a dark pop song, but it showcases what's great about Robert Smith and The Cure: beat and melody, lyrics, Smith's voice and on top of it a fabulous video to make it into a work of art.

[@andyd.5195]

One of the best 80s alternative song , totally masterpiece 🖤

[@xanajak]

The Cure are as underrated a band as ever there was. Iconic sound and emotion and visuals.

[@garymcatear822]

I'm sure the goths wouldn't say they are underrated.

[@Mrdeniro100]

They've never been underrated maybe underappreciated.

[@xanajak]

@@Mrdeniro100 6 of one, half dozen of the other.

[@stahlgewitter69]

Underrated? Its such an popular band, maybe the most popular in all genres of alternative music. In the 80ies they was also in all teenager magazines like the Backstreet Boys. And they are still since 40 years a very important band in the music buisness.... so, they are not underrated!! No No!

[@sarahzentexas]

And I think Robert is one of the most underrated guitarists.

[@LindaB651]

Big Cure fan, love being able to experience their music through a fresh perspective (I'm old- 60 soon.) Thank you for allowing me to see/hear this anew. Btw, anything from "disintegration" will be amazing, you will love it!

[@CBGB_1977]

The Cure changed my life in every way.

[@CEP73]

How I adore The Cure! Incredible song...

[@GhostlyEcheveria]

The Caterpillar and The Exploding Boy are two really great songs by The Cure. They have been one of my favorite bands since I was a child.

[@minxiv7]

Absolutely love you for this one! ❤️

[@kitty1376]

What he says at the beginning: I spy with my little eye something that begins with S. And some more Cure songs I think you should check out are "Kyoto Song", "The Baby Screams", "Six Different Ways", and "The Blood".

[@musicaddict5076]

Head on the door! My favorite!

[@jazzminb]

Try "Pictures of you" "Charlotte Sometimes" "a night like this" "10:15 Saturday night" "lovesong" "primary" are some songs you should check out by The Cure

[@dannywhelan9861]

Jayenuh, If you like the way the music kicks in at the beginning I highly recommend at reaction. The Cure - Fascination Street the extended mix version is very cool dream-like sounds in the instrumentation and makes your imagination go on a journey! Thanks

[@steviekc9057]

Cut the conversation just open your mouth

[@alxtb52]

I just made the same comment. Extended mix of Fascination Street is 🔥 and should be next.

[@jenwendy7]

Oooooooh yes

[@MoonChild-1994]

YES! The instrumental build up is sooo fire. That's the one that got me into The Cure!

“Six Different Ways” is my fave

The Cure are pure magic with a really unique sound and style! Wonderful ❤✌

[@daniellecooper7193]

Every day out we had as kids, my sister would play The Cure. Good times

[@timoraymo]

My favorite thing about the Cure is the amount of layers they add to every song. It’s hypnotizing if you just listen to one instrument looping over and over while the atmosphere fills with the rest of the sounds. Amazing band.

[@Marc-zi5cq]

This imo is their best song ever!

[@Missjunebugfreak]

It's definitely in my top 5.

Just Like Heaven, Love Song, Love Cats, Fascination Street, Boys Don't Cry are a few of their hits. My sister was a huge fan of them when they were popular.

[@molsongrrrl]

I discovered this song about 6 months ago and just fell in love with it! It's just such an intriguing sounding song. Great choice!

[@syssyviv3593]

The cure...the best English pop rock band of the 80's and the beginning of the 90's.

[@MA-tv1gm]

Your disturbed face was priceless! The Cure was my favorite band in high school way back when. It’s so good for young people to have music like this to help them manage all their complicated feelings, and not feel like they have to always be upbeat. Thanks for choosing this one.

[@platovaya]

"Close to me" is another wonderful song and video, which makes you really believe that's what's happening - what you see in the video.

[@kahile82]

The music video scared the living hell out of me as a child 😅 Appreciate the song now tho 😄👍

[@malovela]

It scared the living hell out of me back then, too - and I wasn't even a child. :D

If you like the bass in this, listen to The Cure's "Fascination Street"; the bass in that song is amazing.

[@jfn2462]

The cure are the only band I've ever seen live that didn't have any spotlights on for most of the show. They had the lights and stuff behind them. You could still see them, but they were all just dark figures cruising around on the stage killing it. It was like being on fascination street....

[@jessicamedina9005]

Robert Smith once said that the inspiration for Lullaby came from the bedtime stories his father would tell him as a child. I love how you appreciate their music without knowing what to expect. As a fan of The Cure, it’s nice to see you hear them and love them. 🥰

[@e.h.buchmann23]

This is my arachnophobia jam. 😃 Gotta love The Cure, thy are so unique and versatile. Mint Car and Love Cats are two of their other songs (among many others) that sound nothing like this.

This is so brilliant! So glad you got around to it😄👏

[@allisonreed7682]

Very few artists/groups can evoke a mood as effectively as The Cure. Check out their song “High”.

[@ruarisloane9902]

This song was written to fit the idea Robert Smith had for a video, based on a dream of being eaten by a spider. Love this song.

[@condemned1982]

I know Robert has said this, but I think it's totally plausible that is a cover story. As uncomfortable an idea as it is, the lyrics sound a lot like the description a child might give to describe a molestation situation. Horrifying and sick.

[@shericampbell-husband2528]

@@condemned1982 I had that thought as I read the lyrics. Sounds like a metaphorical description of sexual abuse of a child. Don’t know if it is, but that’s how it struck me.

I was 23 in 1989 when this was released. The tune has aged very well. I love the structure of it and still love listening to it. So happy you've enjoyed it. Keep in mind, it's a tune about addiction, guilt, depression or fear.
