Standing on a Beach - The Singles, is a singles compilation album, marking a decade since the band's start in 1976. The album's title is taken from the opening lyrics of the Cure's debut single, "Killing an Arab". The man featured on the album cover is not a member of the Cure’s entourage, or even connected to he band. He was chosen because his appearance fits the aesthetic of the album they were looking for. His name is John Button, and was a retired fisherman.

No matter how carefully crafted the Cure's individual albums were, their finest moments occurred on singles like these, when they distilled their essence into surprisingly catchy, but decidedly left-of-center, pop singles. Staring at the Sea not only selects highlights from their uneven early albums, it collects many of the group's terrific non-LP singles. It's a definitive retrospective of the Cure and is one of the finest albums of the '80s.

An excellent compilation from The Cure. I had the tape of the exact CD back in 1986 and it was one of my first "best of" or "compilation" of a band. There is just something about The Cure. They have a good sound and some really good songs. I had this album as a teenager in the early 80s, on vinyl (Standing on a beach), and it still sounds fantastic.
