"The Cure 's classic song "Boys Don't Cry" has become the band's first tune to join "Billions Club" on Spotify for surpassing 1 billion streams. Along with the achievement, the band has announced a limited-edition reissue of the single on vinyl, CD, and digital platforms. The Cure will soon have another song in the "Billions Club," as "Friday, I'm in Love" is currently sitting at roughly 970 million streams."
""Boys Don't Cry" was originally released as a stand-alone single in 1979, and then as the title track to the 1980 compilation album Boys Don't Cry, which was essentially the US release of The Cure's 1979 debut album, Three Imaginary Boys. It was remixed and re-released as the single "Boys Don't Cry (New Voice - New Mix)" in 1986, and reached a wider audience."
