A letter to Elise - The Cure

The Cure have consistently released albums and singles until about ten years ago. The recent revival with their excellent new album Songs from the lost world came after a few unremarkable albums - in my opinion then.

'A letter to Elise' came from their last great album before that, Wish. It reached number 28 in the UK singles chart, but it failed to chart in the Netherlands, like all the singles after that. For the longest time I didn't think this single was released on vinyl, so I was quite surprised to find this one after all these years.
