If this is the album where Smith put it all together and stamped The Cure's signature gloomy, layered style still laden with pop hooks, A Night Like This is probably the song that best exemplifies that evolution. Built around stormy guitar, chromatic piano scales, vibrant percussion, and Gallup's walking bass line, Smith sings about realizing a relationship he took for granted is truly over. I could live without the very 80's sax solo, but it was the style at the time.
