A thread for the Cure reissues

I WANTED ‘DOING THE UNSTUCK’ AS THE THIRD SINGLE FROM THE ALBUM, BUT WAS IGNORED BY THE GREAT POWERS… BAH! #TIMSTWITTERLISTENINGPARTY #WISHLISTENINGPARTY

Wow didn't even know that! Sucks Robert couldn't put his foot down, when he was making them so much money. "Elise" could've been a great fourth final single, à la "Pictures Of You".

Elise *was* the single

Elise was not the fourth final single

The reissue cemented my back-in-the-day opinion that “Apart” is a beast of a song and it made me happy to read Robert rediscovering it during the remastering process

I completely agree. I've been rediscovering it myself these past few days and I like it better than back in the day. Very moving.

Ha x-post

I just got this bad boy in the mail.

Happy Happy Joy Joy

Still haven't received the vinyl or the cassette / cd bundle I had to order from two separate vendors. Hope they show up soon.

Wish 3CD set is currently $4 on Amazon at the moment. Mistake?

Don't see it. Gone?

Yeah, it's gone, now back up to $21. I knew it was a mistake.

Mystified why AMG has never bumped Wish from a 2.5 to something even slightly higher. The next three are all 3s.

Aha, only just now realised they changed it to 4 in November (with new review).

Forgot to bump this thread instead -- following Show last year, Paris is coming back:

(Presumably WMS next up, so the question is whether that or the new album actually comes out first.)
