Blame Axl

I love The Cure because of Axl Rose and Guns'N'Roses. How, you ask? Well, I was listening to the radio late one night and a station was playing Appetite for Destruction in its entirety. I listened to it. The DJ said the next night would be Disintergration by The Cure. I had heard The Cure that the radio and MTV played during daylight at the time...mainly "Boys Don't Cry" and "Just Like Heaven." But I hadn't bought anything by them. Well the next night I put on the headphones and was amazed. I still feel that way when I listen to it today. Here was gorgeous, dark, melodic pop music. I went out and bought the cassette of it the next day. I got a job and bought most of the back catalog.
