From The Cure:

SIMON, JASON, ROGER, REEVES AND I WOULD LIKE TO THANK THE GRAMMY'S FOR THIS WONDERFUL AWARD; 

WE ARE VERY HONOURED TO RECEIVE IT. 

WE WOULD ALSO LIKE TO THANK;

EVERYONE WHO HELPED IN THE CREATION OF OUR SONGS OF A LOST WORLD ALBUM, PARTICULARLY CO-PRODUCER PAUL CORKETT; 

EVERYONE IN THE UNIVERSAL MUSIC GROUP WHO WORKED SO HARD TO GET OUR LOST WORLD FOUND; 

EVERYONE IN OUR MOSTLY INDEFATIGABLE CURE CREW, INCLUDING ALL THOSE AT PRIMARY AND CAA;

AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, ALL THE CURE FANS AROUND THIS WORLD WHO CAME TO OUR LOST WORLD SHOWS AND ENJOYED OUR LOST WORLD MUSIC;

WITHOUT YOU, NONE OF THIS WOULD BE POSSIBLE. 

THANK YOU.

Good luck tonight!

Update: wow! Grammys get it right for once. Cure win both! Congratulations!

Best of luck to The Cure at The Grammy Awards tonight, where they are nominated for 2 awards.

About BDC (86)

From The Cure:

WE ARE SORRY THE RELEASE OF 'BOYS DON’T CRY (86)’ IS A BIT MUDDLED - NOT OUR FAULT!

THE 7” B-SIDE IS 'PLASTIC PASSION (79)' (NOT 'PILLBOX TALES (86)’) - & SOME OF THE MORE ABSURD PRICES ARE SUPPOSED TO BE LIKE THIS: CD @ £4.99/$6.99 - 7” @ £9.99/$13.99 - 12” @ £14.99/$19.99

ALBEIT WE CANNOT REALLY CONTROL PRICES - INDEED, IT IS IN MANY PLACES SEEN AS ‘PRICE FIXING’ IF WE EVEN TRY TO DISCUSS GETTING THEM LOWERED! - BUT HOPEFULLY  IT IS NOW ALL SORTED… ONWARDS! THE CURE

PS. LOVELY NEW MERCH AT GREAT PRICES (!) IS ON IT’S WAY SHORTLY - DETAILS/ORDERING ANNOUNCED NEXT WEEK

Boys Don't Cry (86) cd, 7'", 12"
