Video: The Cure – “At Night” (Live, 1979)

http://youtu.be/gqMvkqKBmq0


Of all the early Cure clips available online, this performance on French television in 1979 is my favorite, as it not only captures the beginnings of what would become the iconic English band’s signature ’80s goth-rock sound, but it shows how little has changed in Robert Smith’s voice and delivery since he was just 20 years old. The only thing he left behind, it seems, are those bright pink hot pants.
