{"product_id":"the-cure-greatest-hits-international-edition-cd","title":"The Cure - Greatest Hits: International Edition (CD)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails: \u003c\/strong\u003eImport edition features one additional track, Pictures of You. As Greatest Hits-and particularly the busking pavement jazz of \"Lovecats\"-reminds us, the best Cure singles were very often tangential exercises; halcyon playtime divergences offering a Goth-free contrast to some of the weightier studiousness of some of those early albums. Or, as smudged frontman Robert Smith says of this 18-track collection, \"Songs that are sung with a smile.\" This wasn't always true-witness the refrigerated fogginess of the classic \"A Forest\", the Blair Witch Project of it's day. What this compilation does is focus attention on The Cure's perennial unpredictability-the nursery school bonkers-ness of \"The Caterpillar\", the breathless claustrophobia of \"Close to Me\", the New Order-lite of \"The Walk\", the brass-section embellished thrust of \"Why Can't I Be You\". Oddly, chart-wise, The Cure's Lost Weekend began immediately after \"Friday I'm in Love\", their most ebullient melodic moment and the ultimate clocking-off to kick-those-heels! Anthem. But at least the inclusion of two new songs \"Cut Here\" and \"Just Say Yes\" (with Saffron from Republica) indicate that The Cure remain a healthy ongoing concern.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoys Don't Cry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e A Forest\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Let's Go to Bed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Walk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Lovecats\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Inbetween Days\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Close to Me\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Why Can't I Be You?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Just Like Heaven\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Lullaby\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Love Song\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Never Enough\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e High\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Friday I'm in Love\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Mint Car\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Wrong Number\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Cut Here\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Just Say Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49365195030802,"sku":"731458943228","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/3531086.jpg?v=1717107703","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/the-cure-greatest-hits-international-edition-cd","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
