Search - Cure :: Fascination Street (2x) / Babble / Out of Mind

Top notch remix

"I think it can generally be said remixes don't add much to their original cuts. Fascination Street is a glorious exception. Others might recommend this disk for the b-sides, but I just cant stop pressing repeat on track one. If you don't buy it now, you may lose out -- the other sites say it's out of print!"

My favorite single from the "Disintegration" album era

"The single for Cure's "Fascination Street" has two versions of the song: Remix (4:17) and Extended Remix (8:48). Both of these sound pretty much the same, but one is longer. We are also treated with two B-side tracks. "Babble" (4:16) is a speedy, chipper little tune. Overall, it is a simple song, but will be a treat for any Cure fan. "Out of Mind" (3:51) has a slightly different sound to it than other songs from the "Disintegration" album era, but probably is good enough to have been included as part of the album. After a 1.5 minute instrumental introduction, we have another chipper, fast-pace song with pretty simple repeating lyrics. The re-mixes of "Fascination Street" are nice, but the two B-sides are what make this single worth getting."

Great B-Side

"Much like the "Lovesong" CD-Single, you will find not only a stirring version of "Fascination Street," but a really cool B-Side. "Out of Mind" is a song that should be on the "Wish" album, which is why it may not have made it onto the more melancholy "Disintegration" CD. It's a great song (reminds of "Open" on "Wish") and makes this worth the money."
