==================================== { 804th Place } [80's][ 173rd Place] Song: "Just Like Heaven" Band: The Cure Album: Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me ---{ 1987 }--- Genre: Post Punk Score:[8.3][6.3][5.2][8.3][5.2][7.2][6.3] = [46.8] = [6.685] Video:
Write-Up: And we have yet another genre to add to our list of genres with the first Post Punk tune to make an appearance. I'm not really sold on the vocals but I kinda dig the rhythm and melody here. I've heard the song a fair amount over the course of my life but it really isn't a reminder to me of anything significant or of any importance. This happened to be the first song from The Cure to bring them success in the USA. If you get a chance to listen to just the instrumental, it's much more preferable imo. The band wrote the song while vacationing in Southern France. There were a few sources that suggested this as more of a "Gothic Rock" tune but I really hear more Post Punk than that which is why I stuck with it here. It kind of reminds me of Gran Turismo III even though it did not appear there but it does share similarities with "She Sells Sanctuary" which is one of the main supportive tunes for the game. (I say that because She Sells Sanctuary boots up in like 60% of the races for some reason) Interestingly enough the band names are even partially similar as SSS was released by a band called The Cult. ====================================
