My partner and I in Buenos Aires to dance tango, coming back to the apartment at 3am, foot wary and ready for sleep, I played this song and to it we danced tango, and my lady cried, it was so emotionally charged, so we played it again, same result. I was 75 at the time, and yes I still play it and yes we still dance to it. Thank you Katie for your lovely gift, abrazos y bessos
The Cure is one of my favorite band back in the 80's and still love them... I love this song and honestly love this version. Not an easy cover by any means. Well done.
I'm about to cry. I love this song. The cure and this too. Both very beautiful and so emotional. Her voice on the last part was so much stronger live. She sang with such passion and heart.
This song cover makes me want to done myself in a pretty dress and dance in the warm July sunset with clouds like cotton candy and the air sweet like a dream.
I've been performing this song for years at the original tempo/style but when I heard this version I fell in love with it. Definitely going to change up our acoustic show to do her version---so beautiful!
She perfectly captured the magic of this fantastic song. Her voice, also soft and mellow, kinda reminds me of Robert's charmy singing, so it came out just right.
I agree. I think she just destroyed the song. I do not like her phrasing AT ALL. It seems that's she's forgotten what she's singing. (I am listening to a lot of covers of this song right now and there are some great ones and some truly terrible ones).
Tu, suave y sólo, tu, solo y perdido, tu, más extraño que los ángeles; Bailando en los océanos más profundos, torciéndote en el agua ... Eres como un sueño, eres como un sueño.
I'd give anything to spend 10 minutes with her. I just want to know if she is as amazing as she is as when she sings these beautiful songs. My dream girl.
There was a girl I once knew. She loved me but I did not reciprocate her love. I did all the wrong things. After all these years , I say to her, you were fantastic. I made a mistake of a lifetime. I still think of her and wish all the best to her. I should have been better to you. I do no blame you for leaving. For all time, Layla, from Terry.
Lyrics : Show me, show me, show me how you do that trick The one that makes me scream she said The one that makes me laugh she said Threw her arms around my neck Show me how you do it and I'll promise you I'll promise that I'll run away with you, I'll run away with you Spinning on that dizzy edge Kissed her face and kissed her head Dreamed of all the different ways, I had to make her glow Why are you so far away she said Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you? That I'm in love with you? [Refrain] You, soft and only, you lost and lonely You, strange as angels Dancing in the deepest oceans Twisting in the water You're just like a dream You're just like a dream Daylight licked me into shape I must have been asleep for days And moving lips to breathe her name I opened up my eyes And found myself alone, alone, alone above a raging sea That stole the only girl I loved and drowned her deep inside of me
I heard this song played in a video of a girl showing off her Border Collie's tricks and now this song is forever connected to dog training in my mind. It quickly became one of my favourite songs.
As a young man, you think nothing will become of you misadventures. I understand that, but I also understand that in time, you realize that you did so much to fuel the nightmares of your years. Listen very carefully, listen to reason. Time means nothing to a young body. She is cruel mistress. She lies and one day, when the games are just to keep you occupied, when they distract you from your failures, she will call out your name. And at last, you will treat her like a lady. You will long for her touch and companionship, and it will be too late.

I wrote the lyrics when I was not much younger…
@@wlgj1341 I don’t think you did maté unless your names Robert smith
@robertramsey-turner7530 God bless you both
Why did you use the term "partner"? Are you ashamed of what sex they are?
@@ewaldvonkleist6834 why does it matter
This version of Just like heaven sounds so amazing!
One of my favourite song ever!
Happy 2021 everybody, we all deserve a better year
I start tearing up everytime I hear the words. Thinking of someone gone now.
you ain't seen nothin' yet cuz...2022 is a bitch....
The original is 100x better.
I prefer the version of The Lumineers, but this is a very good version, too.
amazing voice, beautiful mood, happy everybody, a better years, love good life🤗🤩💫✨🎬🎵🕊💕🍀
Oh my love how I have longed for you. It has been decades, and I still long for you.
Sublime...! 12 years after!!
Her voice is like a flowing stream in a valley.....sooo sweet!
I listen to her alone...alone!
The best version of this song ever ! The Cure wrote the song; she mastered it.
this song makes me weep over all the past true loves lost, replaced by emptiness
so deep and moving, just like heaven
A beautiful re-imagining of the original
The Cure is one of my favorite band back in the 80's and still love them... I love this song and honestly love this version. Not an easy cover by any means. Well done.
Oh, is this a cover? I didn't know that! For me, there's only this version, I don't know any other... 😊
😞 why did I discover this beautiful cover so many years later. Glad I finally did. Long live Melua.
C'est toujours un plaisir d'écouter ce morceau.Laisser vous embarquer sur un nuage et que le vent vous porte loin dans le monde
I'm about to cry. I love this song. The cure and this too. Both very beautiful and so emotional. Her voice on the last part was so much stronger live. She sang with such passion and heart.
hauntingly beautiful. I hope it made Robert proud to hear this version of the song.
Watching Just Like Heaven atm. 🥰🥰🥰
I'm inlove with this song. Her voice is so soothing!
Adore this song and the lyrics are so beautiful!
Thanks for putting Katie here for some soulful music ❤
Georgians are proud of you Katie 💕 Greetings from საქართველო
This song cover makes me want to done myself in a pretty dress and dance in the warm July sunset with clouds like cotton candy and the air sweet like a dream.
Seda.Mare what a beautiful image my dear
You're female, right?
That's beautiful💜This song takes you away🏝
@@barryfoster453 , who cares? Be happy, wear dresses, wear trousers, dance and be free.
One of the best covers of this song that I've heard. Well done.
i remember exactly where i was the first time i heard her arrangement. so sincere and sensitive.
I've been performing this song for years at the original tempo/style but when I heard this version I fell in love with it. Definitely going to change up our acoustic show to do her version---so beautiful!
I'm sure your rendition is beautiful💜post it💜
Lots of room in the pocket for some nice jamming as well
it is so beautiful.... THANKS...
A really pleasure to listen this meravellous song from a beautiful woman. Really amazing.
Brava. Soft and beautiful.
One of my favorite songs ever got better with this version. She owns this song. Love it...
She perfectly captured the magic of this fantastic song. Her voice, also soft and mellow, kinda reminds me of Robert's charmy singing, so it came out just right.
Your opinion. For me, this version is more romantic. And FYI, "Wack" went out of style back in the 90's. Just like your taste in music.
+tree.house I have to agree ,this is not a good re invention
I agree. I think she just destroyed the song. I do not like her phrasing AT ALL. It seems that's she's forgotten what she's singing. (I am listening to a lot of covers of this song right now and there are some great ones and some truly terrible ones).
Pfff. Did tree.house claim to be posting somebody else's opinion?
I love both. An original one and this version. Both are magical
She is so beautiful in every way, her soul pours out beautiful music to the ears
True! I'm enchanted with young Katie Melua... 😍
BEAUTIFUL 💙
Gorgeous. Just like heaven.
Nice relaxing version of a classic song ,well done

Lyrics :
Show me, show me, show me how you do that trick
The one that makes me scream she said
The one that makes me laugh she said
Threw her arms around my neck
Show me how you do it and I'll promise you
I'll promise that I'll run away with you, I'll run away with you
Spinning on that dizzy edge
Kissed her face and kissed her head
Dreamed of all the different ways, I had to make her glow
Why are you so far away she said
Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you?
That I'm in love with you?
[Refrain]
You, soft and only, you lost and lonely
You, strange as angels
Dancing in the deepest oceans
Twisting in the water
You're just like a dream
You're just like a dream
Daylight licked me into shape
I must have been asleep for days
And moving lips to breathe her name
I opened up my eyes
And found myself alone, alone, alone above a raging sea
That stole the only girl I loved and drowned her deep inside of me
And this is as good as music ever got
Oh my word, this and she is beautiful.
Sublime!
simple beautiful
I love hearing her sign this song.
She is painfully beautiful.
sublime !
Beautiful voice. I almost cry.
Probably the best cover version ever 🤔
Of this song? No Dinosaur Jr's version is the best
Yesssss 🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼 this is the soundtrack of Just Like Heaven ❤️
Lol not even close. Afi’s version is the absolute best
Awesome
hermosa canción!!!
Maravilhosa cancao , doce e calma, linda voz.
just like a dream, like heaven, distante, e proximo, dentro de mim.
Fantastic! They did a slow version of this on Raising Kanan. Love this!!
