The Cure

The Cure are an English rock band formed in Crawley, West Sussex, in 1976. The band has experienced several line-up changes, with vocalist, guitarist and principal songwriter Robert Smith being the only constant member. The Cure first began releasing music in the late 1970's with their debut album Three Imaginary Boys; this, along with several early singles, placed the band as part of the post-punk and new wave movements that had sprung up in the wake of the punk rock revolution in the United Kingdom. During the early 1980's, the band's increasingly dark and tormented music was a staple of the emerging gothic rock genre.

After the release of 1982's Pornography, the band's future was uncertain and Smith was keen to move past the gloomy reputation his band had acquired. With the single "Let's Go to Bed" released the same year, Smith began to place a pop sensibility into the band's music and their popularity increased as the decade wore on, with songs like "Just Like Heaven", "Lovesong" and "Friday I'm in Love". The band is estimated to have sold 27 million albums as of 2004 and have released thirteen studio albums, ten EPs and over thirty singles during their career.

    The Caterpillar

    by: Cure

    Flicka flicka flicka
    Here you are
    Cata cata cata
    Caterpillar girl
    Flowing in
    And filling up my hopeless heart
    Oh never never go
    Dust my lemon lies
    With powder pink and sweet
    The day I stop
    Is the day you change
    And fly away from me
    You flicker
    And you're beautiful
    You glow inside my head
    You hold me hynotized
    I'm mesmerized
    Your flames
