Dressing Up

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Dressing Up" is a song from The Cure's 1984 album, The Top. According to a Rolling Stone interview, Robert Smith stated it was originally meant for Blue Sunshine, Smith's album with The Glove, but he kept it for The Top because he thought, "I like this one too much."[1]

The song was featured in The Cure's 1992 live album, Paris. It was last performed in 1996, according to bootleg recordings.
