Just Like Heaven

Glenn Miller was famous for his "Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed and Something Blue" medleys.  Well, Glenn would have proud of this "Something New" version of "Just Like Heaven" performed by The World Famous Glenn Miller Orchestra.  "Just Like Heaven" is a song from the late 80's by an alternative rock band named The Cure.  (I was a big Cure fan growing up and have seen them in concert many times!)  I simply love this cover since and I'm quite a fan of the original as well. As much as I have listened to this song in the past, I never imagined how it could be converted into a Big Band style. I think I like this version better than the original now.  :)

Video of  The World Famous Glenn Miller Orchestra performing "Just Like Heaven"

The lead vocals are handled by the magical voice of Natalie Angst and the orchestra is directed by Nick Hilscher.  Nick has been doing a fantastic job directing the Glenn Miller Orchestra for years now.  Give it a listen!  I've included the video below.

The World Famous Glenn Miller Orchestra is constantly touring and I encourage you to go out and see them live!  It's a great show and the band is very tight.

Enjoy!
