Maude Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 I can't remember the exact tale, and probably no one in the band tells the truth about it anyway, but The Cure were signed to German label 'Hansa' in the 70s. The label wanted to promote disco and tried to steer the band in that direction, also the band were contractually obliged to record another single so they recorded this little nonsensical gem as two fingers up to the record company, so the story goes. Who says Robert Smith doesn't have a sense of humour. I actually really like it. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cliff Edge Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 (edited) There’s a whole album full on “Benny Hill Sings?” Deliberately so and one of my favourite albums of all time.

phil.c60 Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 I am fortunate (?) enought to own a copy of Kenny Everett's " The World Worst Record Show" from which I pluck this gem..... There's plenty more where that came from.....😄 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
