The Cure at the BBC

A celebration of The Cure. Robert Smith's unique songwriting talents meant that The Cure's long list of singles were always destined to break out of tortured students bedrooms and be embraced by a far wider audience. This archive collection of The Cure's performances on the BBC goes from the early days with A Forest through to hits like Lovecats, Friday I'm In Love, Close To Me and Boys Don't Cry, demonstrating why, in Britain and overseas, they enjoyed – or pretended not to enjoy – such huge success.
