The Smiths vs The Cure, 4-14-19


These cult favorites battled competed for the title of Our Favorite.  Listeners called in to vote and donate to WTJU, as part of the 2019 Rock Marathon.
This show was co-hosted by DJ Dave.  Most of the categories were invented by DJ ANDROID.


  • Best Lyrics - The Smiths (obviously)
  • Happiest Sad Song - In Between Days (The Cure)
  • Happiest Angsty Song - Panic (The Smiths)
  • Song Most Likely to be Appropriated by David Lynch - The Funeral Party (The Cure)
  • Most Maudlin/Self-Pitying Song - There is a Light that Never Goes Out (The Smiths)
  • Literary References - Killing an Arab (The Cure), and Cemetary Gates (The Smiths)
  • Best Bass Lines - Fascination Street (The Cure), and Barbarism Begins at Home (The Smiths)
  • Best Effects on Guitar - How Soon is Now (The Smiths), and The Kiss (The Cure)

Listeners were split rather evenly between these two bands.  There was no clear winner, and the competition was called a draw.
