(I never knew until now that "10:15" was added to the CD version of Standing On A Beach, for whatever that's worth. It's not on the LP version, which is the only one I've ever owned -- and which, judging from Amazon, apparently sells for a pretty decent amount of money--which is news to me, too.)

I can't make up my mind about the Goth vs. Pop (vs. Punk) thing.
Each is great in its own Cure-ish way.

That's pretty much what I'm saying. I like all varieties of the Cure; evaluation can happen on a song-by-song basis.

If I listen to an album I'll probably choose Goth Cure, but if I'm only in the mood for a song, it'll be Pop Cure (Inbetween Days/Caterpillar/The Exploding Boy/Just Like Heaven/Six Different Watys)

Six Different Ways must be one of the greatest Cure songs never to be a 45 (not saying it should have been) - it's quite adorable.
