There’s something about the melody of this song that pops (aka SLAPS). There’s something about the haunting honesty in the voice of Robert Smith. There’s something about the year 1989, which was pivotal for me and my independence. A love song by a band notorious for songs that are basically about jumping to your death? Unheard of. This is Lovesong by the Cure.
