incutooltone Member	Posted I've always wondered about the following lyric from The Cure's If Only Tonight We Could Sleep: Then an angel would come With burning eyes like stars And bury us deep In his velvet arms That's a dead-ringer for the Sandman. Is there a connection?

Posted Hide Post The Cure and Sandman the thought makes me go mushy in the knees. It makes sense, I just haven't thought long on it. My only issue for the cross over of that particular song is that the dates are rather close with "Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me" coming out in 1987 and Sandman starting in 1988. But still can see the connection. ------Win the Artwork in my Icon while supporting CBLDF check it out on my LJ bloodroseflower http://bloodroseflower.livejournal.com/8267.html or my website!!-------------

tankgirl Member	Posted Hide Post Or maybe its that your poetry was inspired by mussy black hair. Represented well in both cases. ------Win the Artwork in my Icon while supporting CBLDF check it out on my LJ bloodroseflower http://bloodroseflower.livejournal.com/8267.html or my website!!-------------
