Weren’t born in 1940?  Missed out on the hippie era, the swingin’ 70s, the relatively horrible 80s, the carpenter jean 90s?  Well you’re in luck…

This is my favorite bass line ever.  It’s sleazy, swanky, and altogether awesome.  The Cure are a great band, and got everything they deserved.  I just wish this song was more popular.  Maybe it’s a bit too long?  That might be the case, but alas, it doesn’t go on long enough for me…

The Cure – The Lovecats

Here’s a myspace.  Also, look up a cover of this by Ok Go.  Very awesome…
