Some years ago I took my daughter to a Cure concert as she was a big fan at the time. I swear, I was the only guy in the audience not wearing mascara LOL.

I honestly never heard the Cure much Ray...but I have seen them mentioned on here a lot so I will have to check it out...as to your "mascara" comment...
there is a band called the "Ben Folds Five"....they are from the Charlotte and Raleigh NC area....anyway Ben is a piano player singer and does that alone and has a band too....so he wrote this song where the lyrics are "I have your old ID where you are dressed up like the Cure"....

here is the song if you'd like to hear it..

Excellent little song. Bouncy groove and very interesting lyrics. Love the guitar sound you got here.

A damn good job, again! The guitar tones sound so good and fit nicely onto the atmosphere of your song. Excellent work on the lyrics...a bit new wave poetry to my ear.

I love that intro riff, that little three note motif. Such a simple hook that works so damn well. And this lyric is excellent, very good. My only suggestion is that the hi-hat either be toned down/eq'd or maybe reduced in volume every so slightly. I love that it's driving the song along but it might be a hair too bright. But it's such a minor point compared to the excellent writing and music. Don't take that as a criticism, because I like this very much.
