"Sleep When I'm Dead" is a single by the British band The Cure released on 13 July 2008 on Geffen Records in the United Kingdom. It was pushed back to 15 July in the United States to comply with the tradition of releasing songs on a Tuesday. It has the distinction of including a keyboard part despite the fact that the band has not had a keyboardist in their lineup since 2005, although "The Only One" and "NY Trip" feature piano parts. In an issue of

Rolling Stone magazine, Robert Smith stated that the song was originally written for the band's 1985 album The Head on the Door.[2]

The song debuted on 9 May in Fairfax, Virginia on the band's first concert of their 4Tour's North American leg. It would go on to be played at all 27 shows.

"10:15 Saturday Night"

"10:15 Saturday Night"

Song by The Cure from the album Three Imaginary Boys

"10:15 Saturday Night" is a song by British post-punk band, The Cure. It was the B-side to their single "Killing an Arab", as well as the opening track of their debut album, Three Imaginary Boys. It was also released in France as a single with the track "Accuracy" as the B-side. It has been performed live during most of their shows since its release, and was included in their live album Concert.

According to interviews in the booklet for the Deluxe Edition of Three Imaginary Boys, the demo to the song is what caught Chris Parry's attention in 1978 and led him to sign the band to his newly founded record company, Fiction. The track was written by Robert Smith at the age of 16 one evening while sitting at the kitchen table feeling "utterly morose" watching the tap dripping and drinking his dad's home made beer. It was first performed as part of the Easy Cure set around the band's local area of Crawley.

This song was sampled on "Man Next Door" by Massive Attack.

The home demo of the song (RS Organ Home Demo With Vox 2/78) was used in the film Awaydays.

Australian rock group The Living End covered the song on their second EP It's For Your Own Good.

Video by The Cure

Released October 1987

Recorded August 1986

Genre Alternative rock

Length 94:46

The Cure in Orange is a concert film by British rock group The Cure. It is viewed as being as an essential document of the Cure at their mid-late 1980s peak by fans of the group.

Plot Description

This concert film follows British rock group The Cure through their performance at the classic Théâtre antique d'Orange in the French countryside (Orange, Vaucluse), on August 9 and 10, 1986. Band members Robert Smith (Vocals & guitar), Simon Gallup (Bass guitar), Porl Thompson (Keyboards, guitar and saxophone), Boris Williams (Drums), and Lol Tolhurst (Keyboards) make their way through 23 songs. At the start of the concert, Gallup pulls off Smith's wig to reveal a new closely cropped hairstyle.

DVD release

Smith has mentioned on the band's official website that The Cure in Orange will be released on DVD sometime in 2010 (It is now 2012 - still no update),[1] as it was only made available on VHS and Laserdisc. The US edition of the

Laserdisc suffers from the audio and video being significantly out of sync. It is unknown whether it will also be released on Blu-Ray, like The Cure's more recent release, Trilogy.
