I've had lyrics from "Lullaby" by The Cure in my head lately, though I haven't listened to them in a while. They've always been one of my favorites.



Which reminds me that _Disintegration_ is the one cd I don't have of their older stuff. I used to own the cassette. It was/is a favorite, so I'll have to re-buy it.

Anyway, it was interesting to me to find out that "How Beautiful You Are" comes from Baudelaire's "The Eyes of the Poor". The song is an old favorite, though the lyrics have always made me unhappy.

"And stilled my heart with sadness
For the way we are..."

I agree but I don't think it has to be that way at all.

This is the best version I could come up with sound-wise. It's no fun to watch an album cover, I know.
