THE CURE


Born on this day: April 21, 1959 - Singer, songwriter and founder of The Cure, Robert Smith (born Robert James Smith in Blackpool, UK). 
Yesterday was Robert Smith's birthday! Happy 60th Birthday, Robert!!
So as if an excuse were needed comes this . . . . . . Monday you can fall apart . . . . . . . . 



On this day in music history: April 21, 1992 - “Wish”, the ninth album by The Cure is released. Produced by David M. Allen and Robert Smith, it is recorded at The Manor in Oxfordshire, UK from Mid 1991 - Early 1992. Issued at the follow up to the critically and commercially successful “Disintegration”, the band record the album at Virgin Records founder Richard Branson’s studio. Musically it is a dramatic shift from the moody and dark sound of the previous album, with many of the songs having a more upbeat and poppy sound. It spins off three singles including “Friday I’m In Love” (#1 Modern Rock, #18 Pop) and “High” (#1 Modern Rock, #42 Pop) becoming their highest charting album in the US, and earning a Grammy nomination for Best Alternative Music Album in 1993. “Wish” enters the Billboard Top 200 at its chart peak of number two, number one on the UK album chart, and is certified Platinum in the US by the RIAA.

I don't care if Monday's blue
Tuesday's gray and Wednesday too
Thursday I don't care about you
It's Friday I'm in love
Monday you can fall apart
Tuesday Wednesday break my heart
Oh, Thursday doesn't even start
It's Friday I'm in love
Saturday wait
And Sunday always comes too late
But Friday never hesitate
I don't care if Monday's black
Tuesday, Wednesday heart attack
Thursday never looking back
It's Friday I'm in love
Monday you can hold your head
Tuesday, Wednesday stay in bed
Or Thursday watch the walls instead
It's Friday I'm in love
Saturday wait
And Sunday always comes too late
But Friday never hesitate
Dressed up to the eyes
It's a wonderful surprise
To see your shoes and your spirits rise
Throwing out your frown
And just smiling at the sound
And as sleek as a shriek
Spinning round and round
Always take a big bite
It's such a gorgeous sight
To see you in the middle of the night
You can never get enough
Enough of this stuff
It's Friday
I'm in love
I don't care if Monday's blue
Tuesday's gray and Wednesday too
Thursday I don't care about you
It's Friday I'm in love
Monday you can fall apart
Tuesday, Wednesday break my heart
Thursday doesn't even start
It's Friday I'm in love
