Just to be fair we should watch some of The Cure when they did Top of the Pops.

The 1981 performance of Primary was apparently before the show went neon and Smith was still trying to please the general public. The other two feature Robert Smith openly mocking the mimed performances (and cage dancers in The Walk!). Lovecats was done on the garish stage that lends itself more to Morrisseys weird dance moves.
