I think this was one of the songs from The Cure's 2004 self-titled album that really stood out to me at the time, and stuck with me. It's a great song!
I had actually become a fan of The Cure a short time before this album came out, so this like 'my' first Cure album, in a way.
I think it was terribly underrated, but I can understand that a lot of longtime fans at the time probably didn't get into it because there weren't a lot of (off the top of my head, anyway) songs with really deep lyrics or anything like that. Many more were put off by the production of the record and its sort of nu-metal and emo-tinged promotion. Personally, I think a lot of people just had trouble accepting anything new and post-80's from the group.
