The Cure’s Timeless Classic ‘Friday I’m In Love’ Sees A Resurgence
The Cure’s Friday I’m In Love is experiencing a resurgent moment in pop culture more than three decades after its original release in 1992.
The lovestruck anthem is finding new life across TikTok, playlists, and film and TV soundtracks, where the contrast of its’ joyful lyrics and the band’s gothic-rock roots strikes a perfect balance for a whole new generation of listeners. Whether soundtracking reels or closing out episodes of popular streaming series, the song is once again capturing hearts and cementing its status as both a timeless classic and a current cultural touchstone.
Olivia Rodrigo recently covered Friday I’m In Love and Just Like Heaven during her iconic Glastonbury set with The Cure’s Robert Smith.
