10:15 Saturday Night chords by The Cure

"10:15 Saturday Night" is a song by British post-punk band, The Cure. It was the B-side to their single "Killing an Arab", as well as the opening track of their debut album, Three Imaginary Boys. It was also released in France as a single with the track "Accuracy" as the B-side. It has been performed live during most of their shows since its release, and was included in their live album Concert. According to interviews in the booklet for the Deluxe Edition of Three Imaginary Boys, the demo to the song is what caught Chris Parry's attention in 1978 and led him to sign the band to his newly founded record company, Fiction. The track was written by Robert Smith at the age of 16 one evening while sitting at the kitchen table feeling "utterly morose" watching the tap dripping and drinking his dad's home made beer. It was first performed as part of the Easy Cure set around the band's local area of Crawley. This song was covered by Australian punkabilly band The Living End on their 1996 EP It's For Your Own Good. It was also sampled on "Man Next Door" by Massive Attack. Read more on Last.fm.
