Nominated The Cure's first single for Round 122 (Murder)
A song based on Albert Camus' existential novel, The Stranger. Probably more post-punk than new wave.
Finished 5th with 23 votes


I prefer the original 1979 version of "Boys Don't Cry" to the 1986 re-recording which was on this round's playlist

I nominated it for Round 184 (Movie Titles) and won with 32 votes

Speaking of songs that underperformed, I was looking at the spreadsheet and I can't believe this song got only 4 votes.
It's one of if not the best song off one of the best albums of all-time.
