Although not as good as the orginial, the Dinosaur Jr. version of this song is quite interesting (in case you check it out: that's really how the song ends).

ahhhh, The Cure ... LOVE Robert Smith. Saw them live 3 times in Toronto, and the BEST concert was when they released "Disintegration".  They played at the CNE Bandstand, and they played forever. Never get enough of that CD .. full of darkness, amazing sound ..

I love reading the comments whenever The Cure come on.   I always have a chuckle reading them... and out of curiosity I counted 34 songs that are on the playlist for RP.. ... Now isn't that wonderful.. and hearing them made me play all my Cure songs the whole night until I slept a couple of nights ago.   Great music. Love RP.

The first time I heard this song was when the freshman girls dance team performed with it, I was in my sophomore year in HS. So, you can imagine the imprint in my mind. Even when the song can't be danced to !

Totally guilty pleasure from this "pop" song by the ever morose Cure.  I sing loud and dance and embarrass anyone that happens to be in the room.  I love all the Cure do, but this song makes me SMILE every time. {#Dancingbanana_2}Anyone wanna dance??

I like the Cure and all...but it seems like RP plays much too much of them...more than lots of other great artists with equally long, fruitful careers....

My favorite Cure song.  Some of them annoy me — but this one is smokin'!  Drums and synth really in the groove. 100 proof ''80s.

I love the fact that Bill just said something about bringing up the tempo and going into a Cure song.  Don't get me wrong, I love the Cure, but something just strikes me as funny about that statement.

I haven't figured out that bit either.  It's better than the alternative, I guess. Great tune.

Outstanding interpretation of the acoustic version of the song "Just Like a Heaven" (by The Cure), by the unmistakable voice of Katie Melua (Live at AVO Sessions), the best version I've heard up to now.
It is also very surprising and intriguing, the almost absence of this singer in airplay RP playlist, in contrast to many songs perfectly dispensable. Own things of the radio-stations ....?

I think this could be my favourite Cure song. How do I know? Well, I ALWAYS get up and crank up the volume when this comes on.
A solid 9!
