Listen to Phoebe Bridgers cover The Cure’s “Friday I’m In Love”

As part of Spotify’s Singles.

December 05, 2018

Despite their reputation as miserablists The Cure wrote some of the most uplifting songs of their generation. Take "Friday I'm In Love," for example. The 1992 original is a sugar-rush of emotion that neatly distills the feelings of freedom, romance, and hedonism into a three minute pop song. Given to Phoebe Bridgers, however, and things get a little bleaker. Bleak is good though and Bridgers knows how to imbue a sense of melancholy like few other out there right now. She recorded a cover of the song for Spotify alongside a live version of her own song "Scott Street," both of which are available to stream today. Scroll down to check out both tracks now.
