Lovesong - The Cure (1940s Big Band Style Cover) feat. Emma Smith

One of the highlights from our recent Europe tour was Emma Smith (from our "One Week" remake) channeling the poise of Peggy Lee and the power of the blues in this smoldering 1940s jazz remake of "Lovesong," from The Cure's classic 1989 album, Disintegration. Here's the official recording of this showstopper.

The voice, the dress, the band...everything 10/10

[jilly]

I’m a lifelong Cure fan AND I love 1940’s/big band! This is a great combination of both!

[AbandonedRaven]

As a huge fan of The Cure, I never expected this channel to cover them, but this is amazing. Everyone killed it!

[KeithHeard]

Emma Smith has been a great addition to the PMJ family, I hope she gets to do some Christmas songs this year. Also shout out to the full, beautiful arrangement.

[ЕленаМордашева-нт]

It’s so interesting how this version differs from the original . Robert smith’s song has the gentle melancholy and moderation, when PJB is so passionate …. Unexpected great interpretation !!

[destroystheovik]

Please keep doing more songs with Emma Smith, her vocals are absolutely sublime! So dynamic, accurate and shiver-inducing across her entire range; a perfect match for PMJ.

[LouSchonder]

I knew Emma Smith was capable of some impressive vocal acrobatics, but I didn't realize how much! She's perfect for PMJ! Great arrangement and performance, too!

[BryceRogers_]

Wow her annunciation, timing and tone are all superb!!

[Ser_Pounce-a-lot]

This cover bends reality. The singer - phenomenal! The boys - outstanding! That was an amazing, mind blowing performance. You killed it!

[WhitneyAvalon]

Ooh, loved this one! Great work Scott, Emma, and the whole team!

[Janet]

The Cure is one of my favorite bands of all time and although I love their version the best by far, I love this style and take on it.

[gustavobarretoprudente]

This a Grammy-winning performance! OMG! Incredible in every aspect. Emma Smith has total control of her voice and body expression, all at the same time. What a singer and what a band! 😍

[exibuchay]

Her tone on the lower register is very bold. Very strong and powerful voice

[frankmacgillivray]

Just finished a two day road trip, listening to a 16 hour stream of PMJ. No repeats! Thanks guys, for making the miles spin by. Keep on swingin’…!!!🎶

[Kokopelli-Kid]

It’s not possible for my brain to appreciate the incredible PMJ music while simultaneously taking in the vision that is Emma Smith. I can feel my brain short circuiting. I either have to look away and let the sound wash over me or mute the video and delight in Emma’s otherworldly beauty.

[silvertarot]

I have always loved this song. The original has a haunting tone to it, but this one brings out the longing.

Well done PMJ crew.

[daysofnoah]

Probably one of the best renditions this band has ever done! Bravo! Just fantastic!

[sandracastillo]

An amazing song in its original form but then capturing the mood and the feeling and translating into something that is just as epic. Wow!!!
Many have tried but never come close.
This feels new and still carries the essence. Amazing arrangement!!!
Thank you!!! Thank you!!! Thank you!!

[laraj]

It's always incredible when your beautiful singing divas take any song and make an excellent female song out of it!🎉💃 Goosebumps again!😍

[yversorrod]

Absolutely FAN-TAS-TIC!!!... The arrangement and instrumental execution couldn't be better, as usual... And, OMG!... her voice and VERY stylish and powerful delivery are just DELIGHTFUL!!!🤩❤️‍🔥🙌🏼💯
