Hearing Images in Vogue's singer before Dale Martindale, all I've got to say is "Yuck!"

Propaganda didn't do too bad with Betsi Miller. It's not the same as Claudia, but the whole sound and times were different, too.

Well the Sex Pistols did (if you want to still call them the Sex Pistols after Never Mind The Bollocks). Paul Cook sang "Silly Thing" which went to #6 on the U.K. singles chart. Ten Pole Tudor sang the B side of that single, "Who Killed Bambi". Sid sang "My Way" but I believe that was credited to him as an individual.

Faith No More did have two singers. Their first two albums which included "We Care A Lot" was sung by their first singer.

That's true. Faith No More were far better with Mike Patton as he was far more varied than the first singer who kind a sucked so if they reformed if it was without Patton it would suck, I should have been more clear with that and also said I think the Sex Pistols are better with Johnny Rotten I only have 'Never Mind the bollocks' infact.

The Cure...Harold and Joe



Nothing ever gets in my way
Nothing ever gets on my mind
Nothing ever makes me stop to think about
Nothing of the kind
Nothing ever loses me sleep
Nothing ever wins my heart
Nothing ever makes me want to sing along
And nothing makes me want to start

If I'm falling down a mountain
Then I pick myself up
If I crash into an iceberg
I don't give a frightful look around..
If I am burning then I put myself out
I'm so completely full
I scare the world
Oh all the world
All inside out

Just look around...

Nothing ever puts me out
Nothing ever pulls me in
Nothing ever makes me want to jump
And nothing makes me want to begin
Nothing ever gets me down
Nothing ever gets me uptight
And nothing ever makes me run around
And nothing makes me feel I might

If I'm hanging from a peach tree
Then I cut myself down
And if I look into the sun
I just turn up the sound
And if I swallow deathcap loverooms
Then I spit them right out
I'm so completely full
I scare the world
Yeah all the world
Inside out

Nothing ever gets in my way
Nothing ever gets on my mind
Nothing ever makes me stop to think about
Nothing of the kind

Harold and Joe
Go go go!!!
Yeah...
Sing birds sing...

Though this still doesnt prove that Robert Smith didnt sing this one. I'll research more...[:D]

Hi BMG, hope this will help. [:D]

"Never Enough" was a non-album single released by the band The Cure in 1990. Unlike most other Cure songs of this era, the song was unexpectedly guitar-oriented, featuring no synthesizers. The style could almost be called hard rock, but it is as moody as anything the band released. The single sold well upon release, but was never particularly popular among the band's fans or critics.

Although Perry Bamonte is on the cover and music video, he is not credited as being apart of the band. He is a member by the time their next single came out.


Track listing
7" single

"Never Enough"
"HAROLD AND JOE"
12' single

"Never Enough" (Big Mix)
"HAROLD AND JOE"
"Let's Go to Bed" (Milk Mix) [:)]

I know the song well, as it is one of my favorite Cure songs.
I swear, I'm not trying to argue [:)]

Robert on 'Harold And Joe'...

"Me pretending to be 'me'?" (Cure News 14 - 1993)

Who are Harold and Joe? "Creatures in Simon's mind!" (Cure News 11 October 1991)

Roger's idea that the band should record a dance album for the next release was scrapped. The only song that made the cut was Harold and Joe. (Robert)

According to the 'Join the Dots' booklet, Harold and Joe are none other than the characters of Harold Bishop and Joe Mangel from the Australian soap Neighbours (which is popular in the UK), Simon came up with that title because he came up with the song's music and he happened to be watching Neighbours at the time, so Robert Smith kept the title for a laugh...


I swear, that's Robert half-ass singing/talking through the lyrics. [:)]

Hmmmmm...know what? I think you've convinced me that it really was Robert singing that song. I just did'nt recognize it thats why i thought it wasnt him. [:D]

And i blame the stupid DJ who said it was not Smith who sang that song. Thanks BMG. [:)]

NON NEW-WAVE

Genesis without Phil Collins is one that jumps out. He was/is such a driving force for them (particularly in the 80's).
