A trilogy concert of the Top, Head on the Door, and Kiss Me would be amazing.

It’s important to remember the context of this video. Clearly Robert Smith (who has always been uncomfortable in the interview chair) was not prepared for a crowded press conference and (as he says in his last comment) he obviously wanted to be outside listening to the other artists. It was 2012, still the beginning of the transformation that smartphones would make to society. The very idea of social media was still quite a “young people” thing. TikTok didn’t exist. Very few adults were used to the idea that everything we say could be immediately broadcast and accessible to anyone. And it was the band’s first performance during a very sensitive time (as he describes at the end). He was also likely taking heat for both performing at all and especially with a new guitarist. This video gives a better sense of the fire that clearly burns under the surface of his skin and I’m sure it was awkward for everyone there and it’s a bit hair-raising to listen to at the beginning, but it makes a lot of sense given the context of the time and the situation for the band and for him. Thanks for sharing.

So much is being lost in translation or an (edit:  a) lack of.  Robert’s slight of humor is going beyond this crowd making the laughing, light and funny reactions being sent out to space with blank faces. Still, I love listening to his mind and honesty and chuckled throughout.  Deep love ♥️ and respect for This creative human human.

Robert didn't joke about what music he listened at that moment. He joked that she is a new artist. <br>It was a good press conference, I like its vibes. And Robert was interesting. <br>Thanks for posting that.

People who are shocked by this interview don’t know Robert that well. He’s a punk at heart. I love when he is a bit belligerent against stupid and absurd coventions. ❤

I enjoyed Robert’s insight about the relationship with his current Cure lineup, as well as his former members.  <br>He also didn’t sound like he wanted to be doing a press conference and would rather be listening to other bands performing and be drinking with his bandmates.  Thank you for posting!
