He is not any worse than any other poster here, and the people who claim he is just don't know what they're talking about. The demonization has gotten ridiculously out of hand.

I really don't see the big hype about him. The Remedy is fucking terrible, I hate that song. I just don't dig his voice on a lot of his songs.

He may have a good voice, but I don't like it.. He's got 4-5 good songs I like though.

Yeah, Mr. Robert Smith just put up those select few on http://www.thecure.com
I wish he would put some for The Head On The Door or something.

yep...the head on the door = great album, like all their albums up to 1992. haven't heard the latest 2.

hoping to get good tabs of piggy in the mirror or three imaginary boys. dunno how they'd sound on an acoustic tho. altho, the cure did do a vh1 unplugged before. just dunno what they played. where was i going with this?... :?

...oh yeah, many songs from kiss me kiss me kiss me are good to play for your girlfriend.

Wild Mood Swings got bad reviews, but I REALLY liked it.

Hmm...I know that The Top was robert's favorite album, so he might tab that one sometime...

i had almost all their cd's (including an import or two) up to wish. i had a cassette tape that the the b-sides on the b-side :shock: . been awhile, so i forget what it was called. now that had some creepy songs on it!!!

heard mint car on the radio and hated it, so i didn't get wild mood swings. i didn't even know about bloodflowers. maybe i'll go out and get one of them.

just like heaven is definitely a great song to play for a gf. (...he writes in an attempt to stay on topic :D).

although Third Day is a very devoted Christian band, this song seems like it would be a nice song to play to a girlfriend..

When The Rain Comes

When the rain comes it seems that everyone has
gone away
When the night falls you wonder if you shouldn't
find someplace
To run and hide / Escape the pain
But hiding's such a lonely thing to do

I can't stop the rain / From falling down on you again
I can't stop the rain / But I will hold you 'til it goes away

When the rain comes you blame it on the things that
you have done
When the storm fades you know that rain must fall
on everyone
Rest awhile / it'll be alright
No one loves you like I do

When the rain comes / I will hold you
Sort Of A Protest Song wrote:I don't know if this is shameful or not, but after waking up in a girls bed that was really high up off the ground (almost top-bunkbed type high) I told her that if I fell off I'd "come back to life as a white wizard". I was still a bit tipsy. She did not laugh.

2. Lover Lay Down
3. You've got to hide your love away.....
4. Throw your arms around me
5. Thin Air-a pearl jam song
