5.0 out of 5 stars There is a god and he likes me, April 9, 2002
By A Customer
I'm a huge Cure fan. I'm 16. Translation: I missed everything.
Fortunately, however, there are still enough Cure fans around to keep these babies in print. This video is one of the greatest things ever. Not only does it have all the videos from '79-'84
(JOY!!), but it has...(sniffle, sob)...behind the scenes and live footage!!! Oh, rapture!! The live footage is especially magnificent because I know there will most likely never be another Cure tour.

So, if you're like me and missed out on all the good stuff, buy this tape NOW! I promise you, you will want to sleep with this video under your pillow at night.

4.0 out of 5 stars Mixed Up, April 11, 1999
By A Customer
The first half of this video definitely leaves something to be desired. More or less all of the clips up until the ones directed by Tim Pope are rather dull and unimaginative (You can tell that The Cure weren't really all that excited about making videos in the early years). However, the clips from "Japanese Whispers" onward are stunning, and manage to perfectly capture the spirit of the songs.

4.0 out of 5 stars its a classic
Its not only a history of cure music videos, but of music videos in general. Videos were still experimental in the early 80's & I am surprised the Cure pulled it off so well... Read more
