#13 of VJ Samsonite's Top 100 80's Dance Hits Countdown: 'Just Like Heaven' by The Cure (1987)

VJ Samsonite's Top 100 80's Dance Hits Countdown is back, and at #13 we have the massive 1987 track Just Like Heaven by English new-wave/rock band The Cure. The Cure are one of those brilliant bands that has managed to not only survive the passing decades, but also to continually put out great new music that is timeless, and they were doing it well in the 80's, 90's, 00's, and I must add that I hope to see more and more from this group in the future as well. The Cure formed in formed Crawley, West Sussex in 1976, with lead vocalist and songwriter Robert Smith being the only consistent and primary member in the group throughout its existence. Just Like Heaven was the third single release off of the 1987 Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me album, and it would become their first hit in the USA where it peaked at #40 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100, while hitting #29 on the UK Singles Chart. This is one of those great timeless 80's songs that always makes for a good dance floor filler.
