Robert Smith

I have no douts that you know who is Robert Smith, maybe you just can't remember the person with this name, but he is the singer of a really huge and famous british band of the begining of the 8o's called The Cure, that I'm sure that you know; If don't, ask to your parents that they will know, or search on google.

He join in other bands and already had a solo career but was with The Cure that he turned famous. Besides the band didn't over, they still playing.

His style most of time is rotuleted like "gotic", with make up in his eyes and mouth and a messy hair, which remember a little bit Tim Burton the director of Alice - a little coincidence- . Anyway.

In the soundtrack of Alice in Wonderland Robert Smith play alone a dramatic and mysterious music called Very Good Advice, That personally I liked very much.

If you want to listening to see if you liked too, here is the music:

Plain White T's

Plain White T's is an American and successful band, with five albuns alredy released.
With the song Hey There Deliah, they received a Grammy nomination in 2008. In the same year, they had two new singles: 1,2,3,4 and Natural Disaster.
A funny thing about them is that they played with Motion City Soundtrack in 2006, another band that is on Alice in Wonderland soundtrack. But that was not the only band Plain White T's played with. Still in 2008, they played with The Cab, Dashboard Confessional and with my favorite one: Panic! at the Disco.
Their music for Alice in Wonderland is Welcome to Mistery, check it out.
