Called "chilly goth-rock"〔 and "accessible...synth-pop", the song has a single version which is a shorter edit of the album version. There are also two different remixes on two UK 12" singles, and other singles released around the world, one of which later appeared on ''Mixed Up'' as the Extended Dub Mix and differs significantly from the album version in arrangement in that incorporates wholly original drum and bass arrangements. The other is an extended remix of the original album version which, at 7:59, runs slightly longer than the album version. There is also an edit which was released on 12" in the US, titled "extended remix" as in the European and Australasian releases, but which runs for 6:40 rather than 7:59. According to interviews, the inspiration of the song came when a fire broke loose in Robert Smith's home. After that day, Smith was going through the remains and came across his wallet which had pictures of his wife, Mary. The cover of the single is one of the pictures. The same picture was used as the cover of the "Charlotte Sometimes" single, but that version was heavily warped and distorted. In 2011, the song was voted #283 on ''Rolling Stone'' ==Covers== *Angie Hart's version was used for a TAC (Transport Accident Commission) ad campaign to combat speeding drivers.〔(TAC - Pictures of You )〕〔('Pictures of You' TAC advertising campaign launched )〕 *Lit (band) covered the song for their 2004 eponymous album ''Lit (album)''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pictures of You (The Cure song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
