The Cure - Just Like Heaven (Acoustic)

[@ike780]

If I ever make a sitcom about big city life, this is the intro.

Truth😂

[@matspalmqvist]

This acoustic part of their vinyl greatest hits is one the best releases they have done

[@silentwitness536]

I live in Australia. It was released for free along with their greatest hits album. Bonus! Its really rare.

[@danielcastro7600]

Still my favorite song.

[@cesarluengas3405]

This is so beautiful. Of course you had great material to work with, but still, great job. So I guess my new hobby is listening to all possible interpretations of Just Like Heaven on UA-cam. Really well done.

audible commercial is messing with my 80s newwave vibe

[@georgefer8923]

Nice song of course but I don't see where the "Acoustic" fits when the Bass obviously is electric and we also hear a synth, if I'm not mistaken.

[@faustinocabanillas3921]

Buen análisis, pero creo que el bajo suena ligeramente acústico, quizás no sea un bajo acústico, pero si mantiene un estilo mas acústico que la mayoría de los bajos, en cuanto al Synth, creo que es una melódica la que utilizan, aun así el tema mantiene principalmente un sonido acústico, sin desviar la atención a los sonidos eléctricos, habría que ver como fue la grabación en el estudio por parte de The Cure. Saludos.

@@faustinocabanillas3921 It was just a remark, not a blame. Anyway thanks for the upload and the reply. :)

[@countingcrows123]

sounds like an accordion not a synth

[@georgefer8923]

@@countingcrows123 Indeed, it could definitely be an accordion.

[@royalcat10]

A lot of acoustic performances will use an electric bass because it fits better in the mix. Acoustic, horizontal basses are a thing, they just don't really project very well in a band setting. That, plus since electric basses typically aren't distorted anyways, the normal timbre of it fits well even with acoustic guitars. If you watch Korn's MTV Unplugged performance, with Robert Smith, doing a mash up of In Between Days, they're using an acoustic horizontal bass there. You can tell that it's fairly similar to the electric bass sound that they use elsewhere, (although maybe just a little bit more "raw" sounding?) so people tend to just forego an acoustic bass most of the time and just use an acoustic.

[Verse 1]

A E
"Show me, show me, show me how you do that trick
Bm D
The one that makes me scream" she said
A E
"The one that makes me laugh" she said
Bm D
And threw her arms around my neck
A E
"Show me how you do it
Bm D
And I promise you, I promise that
A E
I'll run away with you
Bm D
I'll run away with you"


[Instrumental] *

A E Bm D x4


[Verse 2]

A E
Spinning on that dizzy edge
Bm D
I kissed her face and kissed her head
A E
And dreamed of all the different ways
Bm D
I had to make her glow
A E Bm
"Why are you so far away?" she said
D A E
"Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you
Bm D
That I'm in love with you"


[Chorus]

F#m
You
G
Soft and only
F#m
You
G
Lost and lonely
F#m
You
G
Strange as angels
D
Dancing in the deepest oceans

Twisting in the water
A E
You're just like a dream
Bm D
You're just like a dream


[Instrumental]

A E Bm D x3


[Verse 3]

A E
Daylight licked me into shape
Bm D
I must have been asleep for days
A E
And moving lips to breathe her name
Bm D
I opened up my eyes
A E
And found myself alone, alone
Bm D
Alone above a raging sea
A E
That stole the only girl I loved
Bm D
And drowned her deep inside of me


[Chorus]

F#m
You
G
Soft and only
F#m
You
G
Lost and lonely
F#m
You
G D
Just like heaven
