Good old JR. Let's hope there's no phone calls to pensioners to scupper the airing!
ReplyDeleteBlimey! Anyone know what track/s???
ReplyDeleteIs there an interview as well??
They played The Only One.
ReplyDeleteShame they chose the worst track from the album.
ReplyDeleteJamie: Agreed. But it seems to be popular, so what can you do? : )
ReplyDeleteAfter Sachsgate old Wossy needs a pick up. (Most of that won't make an ounce of sense to anyone outside the UK).
ReplyDeleteany idea if we're gonna get footage of this? did someone record it?
ReplyDeletei really just can't believe how poor of a view many of you have of 'the only one.' i think it's brilliant and loved it from the first listen. it makes me happy. and i'm not a casual fan by any stretch of the imagination,
ReplyDeleteI like TOO, too. ;)
ReplyDeletei LOVE the only one <3
ReplyDeletei hope someone is recording this
Two things.
ReplyDelete1. TOO is one of my least favorite Cure songs of all-time. How an otherwise brilliant girl like V could like that junk, is beyond me! :P
2. I'm sure someone will record it, probably Aaron :), but it doesn't air until Feb. 20th.
I can certainly understand the appeal of TOO, it just isn't for me.
ReplyDeleteAnd no V, it will NOT be our first dance! : P
Put me down as a fan of The Only One also. :^P
ReplyDeleteThe Only One is the worst single from 4:13 Dream. Seriously. It's a rehash of previous Cure love songs, only with a slightly more mature view.
ReplyDeleteactually, of all 4, I find Freakshow to be the weakest single, but I wouldn't call it "worst" or "awful" as it is still a Cure song.
ReplyDeleteCraig: We'll see about that... ;)
ReplyDeleteI put Sleep When I'm Dead down as the worst single although it did have the best B-side.
ReplyDeleteThe Only One is great although yeah, it is just a rehash of High.
Put me on the list of The Only One Haters. I totally agree with the person who said it sounds like a rehash of other singles.
ReplyDeleteSleep When I'm Dead, however. Still love that song. Still my favorite from 413.
I love The Only One, and i cant of recorded as its not been on tv yet, i believe it will be on bbc iplayer so will try and get it.

ReplyDeleteOne can always catch it for a week after airing on the BBC iPlayer....maybe that's UK only actually..not sure
ReplyDeleteDon't you just love it when you post before reading the post above yours....:)
ReplyDeleteIt doesn't look like there will be an interview. According to Wikipedia:
ReplyDelete"At the end of the show, there is a musical performance from a performer or a group. There are rare occasions where the performer(s) are interviewed as well..."
Also I wonder why this is being kept under wraps on the official website. One would think that this, along with the SWID performance on Carson Daly, would be/would have been posted on the news section and not just under events. Especially since the re-broadcast of World Cafe made the news section. Go figure...
ReplyDeleteEven though yes the site has been up to date lately...it's hardly been the place for Cure news for the last 3 and a bit years..wink wink nudge nudge...so, probably an oversight on their part...i would say..
ReplyDeleteI vote for Sirensong for *the* first dance...... a Cure waltz :)
ReplyDeleteTHE SCREAM, for me, was the worst. TOO was good, so here's another vote for that.
ReplyDeleteBest song? Sloppy drunk, lyric-forgetting live version of HUNGRY GHOST from Leno.
Ross usually has some talk with the "Green Room" and all the guests get at least an "hello" usually at the top of the show...So probably not an interview but maybe a small section with Robert...
ReplyDeletePerfect Boy is weakest single..
Everyone clear the dance floor... ! :)
ReplyDeleteOk i'm going in....This here now with you..whatever it's called..my least favourite on 4.13.So there.
ReplyDeleteI'll jump in with you, PerfectMurder: my least favorite is SWID. i totally get why it was scrapped previously. but, to each his own and I'm fine that you others think it's a great song and it makes you happy.
ReplyDeleteI like TOO, but it pales dismally in comparison to the rest of 4:13 Dream, which was just ONE OF THE BEST FUCKING ALBUMS OF ALL TIME
ReplyDelete*waves to Liseypooables*
I'll have to give my 2 cents on this Oh so important matter...
ReplyDeleteWithout doubt, The Only One is 4:13 Dream's weakest cut.
It's not that I don't like it, it's good, but compare to the rest of the album... yeah.
I wouldn't mind if something like All Kind of Stuff replaced it (though not right after UTS).
HiHi Swifty!!
ReplyDeleteI think TOO is a great cure pop song. I played it to a few friends who arent massive cure fans and they really really liked it. Surely thats what the cure are about.. they started with pop songs then darker songs and then a mix. TOO is a classic cure pop song. RS has said if they only did darker songs they and everyone else would get bored... if prefer the darker ( better) stuff but TOO is like a breath of fresh air. Thats why the cure are so genius surely ? anyway , they do what they want which is why the UK NME is giving them an award.. Not just for pornography or faith or dis. but for BDC , JLH , IBD , FIIL , POU , etc etc ...pop songs. Everything basicaly... the cure without pop songs isn't the cure and i for one think TOO is refreshing pop cure... looking forward to the dark album though if there is one !
ReplyDeleteswifty- i haven't heard you tell a good joke in awhile...
ReplyDeleteThe Only One reminds of blind, adolescent infatuation, adulation... with a lot of pervy undertones. I think it's sweet in its own way, I like it. Did Craig call it junk? Shame on you Mr. Craig sir, shame on you! XF
ReplyDeleteAlso, I really didn't like SWID at first, but now I love it. *shrug*
The meaning of both songs changed for me after listening to Robert sing them live a couple times...

ReplyDeleteThe live Boston version of SWID was great, the single version was a disappointment (lacked power), and the album version sits somewhere in the middle. It was still my favourite of the 4 singles with Freakshow a close second. TOO and TPB were dreadful singles in my opinion - sonically better on the album, but still the two tracks I am most likely to skip. Always skip TOO, then TPB, then THANWY. Everything else is wicked, but a bit soupy.
ReplyDeleteWell said Woof - The Cure are the Cure BECAUSE they do so many moods. TOO is a clever Cure pop song and yes Helsabot it is inuendo city, probably THE inuendo Cure pop song of all time. A lot of the Cure is about sex and TOO is about the daft adolescent, infatuation we should all do more of! If you prefer the somewhat dirtier "The Kiss" sort of sex then that's fine too.
ReplyDeleteSWID is a classic Cure angst song, Freakshow is what I call "Daft Cure" and my only complaint is that its not a minute longer but Perfect Boy??? It has grown on me but not great writing. I'd pull that off 413 if I had to make it 4:12Dream.
But that's just my two penneth. And now I'm going to have a sit down.

Does 2 penneth means twin postings?
ReplyDelete;)
"If you prefer the somewhat dirtier "The Kiss" sort of sex then that's fine too."
ReplyDeleteWhat's even worse is The Real Snow White... that's not something I'd like to participate in!
Helsabot - I resisted mentioning that. Don't go there.
ReplyDeleteXD !!
