Coheed And Cambria’s Claudio Sanchez has shared a new cover of The Cure’s “Just Like Heaven.” You can check that out below. Sanchez commented:
“This song was introduced to me by some friends as a cover done by Dinosaur Jr. They were skaters, so the reference to ‘tricks’ at the top of the song conjured up ideas of a smitten lover’s curiosity for executing kick-flips and rail slides. At the time, I didn’t know much of The Cure’s discography outside of ‘Boy’s Don’t Cry,’ ‘Disintegration‘ and ‘Wish.’ The albums that glued those classics together were a mystery to me. The discovery of ‘The Head On The Door’ lead me to ‘Kiss me, Kiss me, Kiss Me’ and the introduction to the original ‘Just Like Heaven.’ It’s a strange but powerful relationship to have with a song when your introduction is someone else’s interpretation of it. I think that’s why I chose ‘Just Like Heaven’ for this month’s cover.”
