Or surely you would know Robert Smith was a heroine attict at this part of his career and the song was about a trip he had on a come-down on one occasion, he imagined a spider he say in his room eating him (as it is told in the lyrics) The guy who said the thing about the uncle was on the right track because he's had a fear of spiders since his uncle use to scare him but theres just so much more to it... Awesome. :D | Reviewer: Jes.Sick.A | 12/23/08 I have no idea about the history of this song - I am a very new Cure fan - but for me it paints a picture of sadism. Very thrilling and seductive, if the simile wasn't spiders and flies I think it could be vampires. I may write a Yuugiou songfic to this. Sexy and twisted... I love it. >D What Smurf Thinks | Reviewer: Smurf | 12/16/08 You only have to look at the words to realise that the song is sung from a childs perspective, and that the song is the childs lullaby. And if you really need it spelling out:- "don't struggle like that or i will only love you more", i.e. I [the attacker] will only be more brutal "and i know that in the morning i will wake up in the shivering cold", which is painting a picture of the terrible conditions, both mnentally and physically, that the child is living in, and "and the spiderman is always hungry...", which tells of the constant abuse that this child, and many children in reality, suffer from their abusers. It is a very dark song, but truly amazing. Robert and Siouxsie's songs, intertwined? | Reviewer: Leelachan | 10/12/08 Robert Smith said in an interview that the song was about a story his uncle told him as boy to scare him. Siouxsie and the Banshee's "Candyman" was about her rape/molestation experience as a child. The two aren't intertwined and there really was no social movement the two bands were trying to achieve. controversial? | Reviewer: ousia | 10/7/08 ... to all the ones saying there is no hidden ideas in this... you're not a fan of the Cure are you? This was a backslap at the time both around the movement as it was around mr Smith and miss Siouxie of the banshees just go see her "candy man" and get your ideas out this song was clearly about abuse if you see most of the lyrics from the two, you'll clearly see what the movement was socially saying this is part of the punk heritage the political content... confusingly sexy | Reviewer: paula | 9/24/08 I think when hearing those lyrics you can find sensuality, specially 'cause of the whispering, the slow beat, everything is set up to make you think about whatever but the song lyrics or title,but I think is about seduction obiously goethe? | Reviewer: sarah | 9/22/08 this song really makes me think about a poem of Goethe. in this poem, a little boy is slightly being taken away off his father arms, and there's a king of aulnes that says exactly this "dont struggle like that or i will love you more". at the end the boy dies, his father helpless, as for he couldnt see the "thing" taking his son away... this spiderman is like a dreamt creature for little boys, which symbolizes fear, death, dark (spiders).in the comic book, he was used to be changed in the "good guy" as if everything has 2 sides. Very creative | Reviewer: wavey | 8/16/08 I always found this song creative since the first time i heard it. Very nice song and very good to listen to. It is clearly a song about S*x "Come into my parlour", said the spider to the fly... "I have something here for you" I love it My take on the song | Reviewer: will | 8/6/08 In plain words the song is about being raped by the spiderman. But with the cure there are thoughts behind every word. I think Robert Smith chose spiderman because spiderman traps things, which goes along with the helplessness theme going on in this song. Lyrics such as 'don't struggle like that i will only love you more. But its much too late to get away or turn on the light, the spiderman is having me for dinner tonight. Sorry this whole this is so jumbled, i was very tired when i wrote it mmmmm....... | Reviewer: coulditbesatan | 7/25/08 this is one of the most audibly provocative songs ive ever heard...AND I LOVE IT....(right ladies!)...to be honest before i ever even knew what in the hell he was whispering on about,i pictured a very dark and sexy scene between a man and a woman dancing for him..but actually the different ways she would move her body would toutch him differently...mentally..kinda like a real mind f%*k..make any sense? but now after i have read the lyrics i really think this song could be about shooting heroine or something along that nature...the spiderman was his indian..(r.e. jim morrisons indian)..whatever the case from start to finish the song is absolutley BRILLIANT.......................chow Add Your New Review About The Song By Pages:   1    2    3    4    5    6    7    8    9
