16. The Cure - Boys don't cry
26. The Cure - Just like heaven
43. The Cure - Lullaby

  1. Those are some great songs. Having had the money and time to go through much of The Cure's early catalogue when I reached university at the turn of the millennium, I was amazed -- despite some spotty material -- at how many great and varied songs The Cure put out in such a short amount of time. The band's early output (the first 5 years or so) far exceeds in quality that of, say, U2, which took a long time before it was able to write and sing quality material.
