The Cure

In November 2016, The Cure was riding the wave of their enduring legacy, especially following the release of their critically acclaimed album, "4:13 Dream," which dropped in 2008. This album marked a notable moment in their career, as it was their first studio album in four years, reigniting interest with tracks like “The Only One” and “Freakshow.” By the time they performed at the AccorHotels Arena in Paris, the band was deep into their touring cycle, showcasing their ability to captivate fans with a blend of nostalgic classics and more recent hits. Interestingly, this concert is part of a series of shows celebrating their rich catalog, and the setlist from that night featured beloved tracks like “Pictures of You” and “Lovesong,” which highlight the emotional depth that The Cure is renowned for. It’s fascinating how they manage to create such a profound connection with fans, blending both past and present seamlessly. What keeps them relevant? Maybe it’s the magic of classic sounds fused with their ever-evolving artistry.
