The Cure - A Forest - (album version 1980) - TROS Top 50 - TopPop
Today we celebrate Robert Smith’s 63rd birthday!
Robert James Smith (born 21 April 1959) is an English singer, songwriter, musician, and record producer. He is best known as the lead singer, guitarist, primary songwriter, and only continuous member of the rock band the Cure, which he co-founded in 1978. He was also the lead guitarist for the band Siouxsie and the Banshees from 1982 to 1984, and was part of the short-lived group the Glove in 1983
This is a very rare recording by Gothic rock/ post punk rock band The Cure in the original line-up with Robert Smith, Simon Gallup, Matthieu Hartley, and Lol Tolhurst on the TROS TOP50 TV program on July 3, 1980. Simon and Robert have exchanged their instruments in this video with Simon playing guitar and Robert playing bass.
This tape was recently discovered in the vaults of AVROTROS and we are very happy to present the full version now for the first time since the first broadcast in 1980.
This is the long version of the video that we released some months ago! It was broadcast on the same day as the ’Play For today’ video.
