A Night Like This

"A Night Like This" is a cover of a Cure song performed by The Smashing Pumpkins on their 1996 box set, The Aeroplane Flies High.

This is one of my favorite Cure songs, but in doing a cover we always tried to change something about it. I decided to make it a slow, acoustic dirge with different drum feels for each part instead of a straight beat through the whole song. There's also a cello, which gives it a gothic feel. At the end it sorta rocks out with some Big Muff and Neil Young & Crazy Horse kind of rhythm guitars.
