YESTERDAY'S GONE (remix) (5.8MB)
A song from Reeves Gabrels and Robert Smith.
Not quite The Cure, but close enough. This is a
bonus song from Reeves Gabrels web site if you
buy his "ULYSSES (della notte)" CD. In my opinion
this remix is much better than the original.

This song has also been played live at some Cure

WORLD WAR (2.9MB)
This song was on the original release of the
