Just heard Editors version of Lullaby (possibly my favourite Cure song after Disintergration) from the Radio Est.1967 album. Well worth a listen- as good a cover as Ceremony by Radiohead perhaps
Not that familiar with Editors but wikipedia describe them as being like Kitchens of Distinction so they can't be all bad
Quick heads up for fans of The Cure...

we've got beer and we've got fuel
I like them too.
Got a couple of gigs off dime also & they are pretty good live also.
Cheers for the heads up.

Th Editors always strike me slightly as 'Tonight Matthew, we're going to be... The Chameleons'
Not that that's necessarily a bad thing.

The fundamental cause of the trouble is that in the modern world the stupid are cocksure while the intelligent are full of doubt.

I think they are really good, especially live, saw them on the small stage at Vega in Copenhagen last spring, intense and loud as it should be saw them on the big stage at the same venue a month ago, way too many small kids in the audience and the sound was muddy and low but still pretty okay..
Haven't heard the lullaby cover, need to find it!

can't be any worse than Katie Melua's cover of 'Just like heaven'
I hear her cry all day, all night
I hear her voice from deep within the wall
Made a cross from knitting needles
Made a grave from hoover bags
Especially for the woman in the wall

Dim, through the misty panes and thick green light,
As under a green sea, I saw him drowning.
