The Cure

On December 15, 1995, The Cure performed "Just Like Heaven" live on the final episode of MTV Most Wanted. This performance came at a pivotal moment in their career, shortly before the release of their album *Wild Mood Swings* in 1996. This era followed a significant revival for the band, marked by their successful 1992 album *Wish*, which featured hits like "Friday I'm in Love" and brought them back to mainstream prominence. The MTV appearance showcased their enduring appeal and ability to draw in a diverse audience. Interestingly, the performance of "Just Like Heaven," originally released in 1987 on the iconic album *Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me*, highlighted the band's knack for blending gothic rock with pop elements, solidifying the track as one of their signature songs and maintaining its relevance years after its initial release. The live recording exemplified The Cure’s dynamic stage presence and their continued influence in the music scene during the mid-90s.
