Days ago, for the Letters To Santa benefit concert, Smith once again gifted the world with a socially distanced solo performance; this time he chose three songs from Faith. Watch the master in action below:
1. The Holy Hour

Good to his word, Robert Smith appeared on two streaming events yesterday!
First, Smith performed at the Nine Lessons/Cosmic Shambles streaming event - he spoke briefly about the 40th anniversary of Seventeen Seconds, then performed three songs off the classic album. Watch his brilliant acoustic solo performance (barefoot, no less) of "In Your House," "M," and "Play For Today" below.
Next, Smith appeared on Gorillaz Song Machine Live - a livestreaming concert featuring a virtual full album performance of the collaborative album Song Machine. Smith joined Gorillaz for the song "Strange Timez."
Watch both performances below:
