Ok now that we've talked about what you would like The Cure to cover... What is your fave cover that they have already done?
I've found others on the net such as Tainted Love from Soft Cell and Creep from Radiohead but can't confirm yet if they are authentic.
I think my fave is World in My Eyes but Young Americans is fantastic too.

ha, i feel the same way, so i voted for young americans to keep it even ;D but you know, now that i'm thinking about it, purple haze and hello i love are really good too.

I voted for my favourite song (Purple Haze) rather than my favourite Cure version, is that right?
It does go to show though that a classic like Purple Haze only just beat World In My Eyes in my opinion.

Oh bugger, I think I was meant to vote for their best version, which would have been World In My Eyes.

I went with world in my eyes- love the song, love the cover!
I don't think I've heard the kinks cover.

I've not heard the kinks cover either. Just to be awkward though, I went for 'other', because they're cover of Love Will Tear Us Apart is the bee's knees...
My second would be Hello I love You, though I do really like them all apart from Foxy Lady (and I prefer the dancey Purple Haze to the 'rock' one)

Ah man, I wasn't even thinking about Love Will Tear Us Apart...
I went with World in My Eyes, but it was tough. I mean, the 10 sec version of Hello I Love You is so perfect when no one's home...
My favorite cover that Robert's done is Pirate Ships, but I don't think the rest of The Cure was involved. If you haven't heard it, I'll help you find it. A-mazing. Imagine Uncle Robert singing that for a lullaby...
PS- Leo, where DID you get that picture?

I've not heard that one, sounds spooky!
and I've just remembered, in show dont they credit the kinks, just because they play a few chords from all day and all of the night? does that count as a cover then?
and I suppose if it does that bit at the end of 100 years on paris would be another foxy lady cover too!)
