The Cure

On December 15, 1995, The Cure performed "Friday I'm in Love" live on the final episode of MTV Most Wanted. At this time in their career, the band was promoting their album *Wish*, which had been released earlier that year. *Wish* marked a successful phase for The Cure, featuring a more accessible sound that garnered mainstream popularity, particularly with the hit single “Friday I’m in Love.” This performance occurred during a period when the band was experiencing renewed recognition in the 1990s, following their earlier iconic work in the 1980s. Additionally, the 1995 MTV Most Wanted performance was notable as it signified the end of an era for the show, adding a sense of urgency and nostalgia to the event. The Cure's set was characterized by Robert Smith's distinctive vocal style and the band's atmospheric sound, which resonated with both long-time fans and newer audiences.
