Out of This World is a promo only release from The Cure, from the 2000 album "Bloodflowers". The song was the first worked on for the actual release of "Bloodflowers", although the first song in a session was "Possession" (the song would later go on to be released on the 2004 box set "Join The Dots"), but Robert didn't agree with the direction the band were taking after the lukewarm response to "Wild Mood Swings" and the band begun work on "Out of This World". As a result, it's seen as the inspiration for the "Bloodflowers" album.

The song has only been played sparingly since the bands "Bloodflowers tour", usually appearing as an encore to the main set.
