The Cure - Ocean

*i don't think i'm any closer now than i was at fifteen/i still don't know what i really want or how i really feel/sometimes i think i've seen too much/sometimes nothing at all and sometimes i think i just forgot what i was looking for/but i still need to believe in you/i still need to know you'll never never give up/i believe in you/so how can you ever let my hope turn to despair?/how can you ever stop telling me you care?/but i still need to believe in you/i still need to know you'll never never give up/i believe in you/so how can you ever let my hope turn to despair?/tell me you believe it too/tell me that you care/how can you ever let my hope turn to despair?/how can you ever stop pretending?*

The Cure Postpones MSG Gig!

Sadness. Here's info via Ticketbastard: *Please be advised that The Cure concert performance originally scheduled for Sunday, September 23, 2007 at Madison Square Garden has been postponed. A new date will be announced soon. Please retain your tickets. All tickets marked Sunday, September 23, 2007 will be honored at the new performance. For more information regarding the new date of this show, please continue to monitor www.thegarden.com. If you are unable to attend the new performance, please return to your ticket at the point of purchase for a full refund.*

UPDATE: *With all apologies for any inconvenience or disappointment it may cause, we have made a decision to move the September/October 2007 North American Cure shows to April/May 2008. The schedule as it stands only gives us a couple of weeks to finish our new double album before we hit the road again, and we know this just isn’t enough time to complete the project to our total satisfaction.* Read more at Brooklyn Vegan.
