I wouldn't want to think people doted on us, hung on every word, or wanted to look like us.
I just don't feel comfortable anymore with the kind of attention that I'm getting. It's purely the numbers of people that want a bit of the Cure or want a bit of me.
I don't care where the Cure is placed in the pantheon of rock. I don't care if we're perceived as relevant. We're never worried how we fit in. I don't even want to fit in.
I don't want The Cure to fizzle out doing 45-minute shows of greatest hits. That would be awful for our legacy.
No, come to think of it, I don't think the Cure will end, but I can make up an ending if you want me to.
I had no desire to be famous; I just wanted to make the greatest music ever made. I didn't want anyone to know who I was.
