The Cure – Alone

The Cure are back with “Alone,” a haunting new single that sets the stage for their upcoming album “Songs Of A Lost World.” This 7-minute track showcases the band’s signature atmospheric sound, with Robert Smith’s vocals emerging midway to deliver emotionally charged lyrics. The opening line, “This is the end of every song that we sing,” has been teasing fans for weeks. Smith describes “Alone” as the key that unlocked the entire album, drawing inspiration from Ernest Dowson’s poem “Dregs.” It’s a powerful return for the post-punk legends, offering a glimpse into their first album in 16 years. Mark your calendars: “Songs Of A Lost World” drops on November 1st.
