Never Enough (The Cure Song)
"Never Enough" is a song by English rock band the Cure, released as a single in September 1990 from their 1990 remix album, '' Mixed Up''. The song topped the US ''Billboard'' Modern Rock Tracks chart, reached number three in Finland, and peaked within the top 20 in Germany, Ireland, New Zealand, Spain, and the United Kingdom. Content Unlike most other Cure songs of this era, the song was unexpectedly guitar-oriented, featuring no synthesizers. On the album, it is subtitled "Big Mix". While containing no synthesisers, the song was nonetheless influenced by baggy music. The song's largely electronic B-side "Harold and Joe" was described by Chris Ott of ''Pitchfork'' as a "phenomenally adorable ecstasy tribute."

António Joaquim Rodrigues Ribeiro, (3 December 1944 – 13 June 1984) was a Portuguese singer and songwriter.
