I've been playing this on repeat since July. I've been obsessed with The Cure all summer.

These lyrics sound like if Kurt Cobain wrote a song like the Clash:

I almost never compulsively loop a song or listen to it a dozen times a day, that's never been my style, but this song actually caught me like that. I think it's a bit like Grimes and Io found the corner of three or four massive techtonic plates and lit off an atom bomb or jammed a chisel into a crack in the collective unconscious and smashed it with a sledgehammer (lol... or I could be finally losing my isht - who knows).

There's a lot more I could say but I'd rather let other people listen and figure out what I'm getting at for themselves.

Not quite 'obsessed' but I give quality on tune and video equal thumbs up.

Echoey choral voice sampled with religious imagery and sad lyrics? You betcha.

Ugh I can’t get enough of this song, I wish it was longer.
I wish it was a real person but if it was I’d be in very big trouble.
I love how goth it is. Their most goth song, so dark and sexy and I love the “beep beep” repetition thing in the background.

There are two versions of this, the first 'in the thick of things' version was from 1997 on Saturnz return with David Bowie, the second version is 2017 The Journey Man with Jose James.

This song's struck me to the core in difficult times. It's not a love song, rather it's artist-to-self, something Cliff apparently woke up and had written to himself during a blackout at a time when his use was in full tilt.
