The Cure brought the second day of Leeds Festival to a close tonight (August 25) with an epic 33-song set.

"Hello again. It's been a while" singer Robert Smith told the crowd, as he took to the stage for the band's second appearance at the festival in two days, after having not played Reading and Leeds festivals for 33 years.

“I thought yesterday maybe I should say things between songs,†Smith said before ‘The Walk’. “But it breaks a spell in my head. So just imagine I'm saying things to you.â€

Reeling out a series of hits, including 'Friday I'm In Love', 'Just Like Heaven', 'Lovecats' and 'Close To Me' - which did not appear in last night's set, Smith closed the two-and-a-half hour show with 'Boys Don't Cry'.

Liam Stainsby, 18 ,said: "I thought The Cure were…brilliant, sorry, I was going to swear…ok, they were FUCKING insane. They were the best band so far, they've got so many years of so much good music. Amazing."

Tamsin Daisy Reece, 18, from Durham added: "I thought they were just lovely. They're a band that's really comforting. I loved 'Lovecats' and 'Friday, I'm In Love', they were so good."
