Classic Cure moment
Rodrigo_Amaro7 June 2021
A classic tune and a fantastic moment from The Cure, in "Boys Don't Cry" the band members are hidden in the background as three imaginative figures while three boys are mimicking their playing the instruments and singing. An excellent and original idea at the time in terms of known music videos, later expanded and better used by Queen in "The Miracle".

Here, Robert Smith, Michael Dempsey and Laurence Tolhurst are put far back as dark shadows of the upfront colorful boys coldly play the immortal song. Lots of fun and doesn't get better than this. One of my all-time favorite Cure moments. 9/10.
