I do like The Cure very much, but I think this chart could stand to have a lot more balance. There's potential for a solid foundation here, though: the Beatles, Smashing Pumpkins, etc.

Pretty heavy on the gothic stuff, eh? Some nice variety towards the end, but all Cure in the top? Even the biggest of Cure fans would have to agree that's a bit much...
