FROM ABSOLUTE RADIO:
The Cure won two prestigious Grammy Awards on Sunday, the first of their fabled 50-year career.
The English music icons scooped Best Alternative Music Performance for their epic gothic rock song 'Alone', and Best Alternative Music Album for their critically-lauded, chart-topping 14th studio record 'Songs of a Lost World'.
Robert Smith, Simon Gallup, Roger O'Donnell, Jason Cooper and Reeves Gabrels weren't at the Peacock Theatre ceremony in Los Angeles as they were attending the funeral of long-time guitarist and keyboardist Perry Bamonte, who died aged 65 on Christmas Eve.
However, frontman Robert Smith issued an acceptance speech for Best Alternative Music Album that was read out on the band's behalf.
"Simon, Jason, Roger, Reeves and I would like to thank the Grammys for this wonderful award, we are very honoured to receive it," Robert Smith's speech went.
"We would also like to thank everyone who helped in the creation of our 'Songs Of A Lost World' album, particularly co-producer Paul Corkett, everyone in the Universal Music Group who worked so hard to get our Lost World found, everyone in our mostly indefatigable crew…and most importantly, all of The Cure fans around the world, who came to our Lost World shows and enjoyed our Lost World music. Without you, none of this would be possible. Thank you!"
