bird-madgirl:Interviewer: The new record from The Cure has the strange title “The Head on the Door”. There must be a lovely story about that.Robert: How did you guess? “The Head On The Door” refers to my childhood. I slept in the same room as my little sister and we used to play together with hand made puppets. Unfortunately we also had a brother that seemed be born just to bully us. One day, he cut off the head of my favourite puppet and stuck it to the door. For you, that might not seem very impressive, but I was pretty shaken up by it. Weeks later, I still had nightmares about chopped off heads who came peeping through doors. That memory came back to me a while ago. “The Head on the Door” seemed like a nice record title ,a bit mysterious, but funny nonetheless. -- source link
