Why it's here
"Close to Me" is The Cure's September 1985 single from the album The Head on the Door, later reworked as the 1990 "Closest Mix" remix single. [1] The band's official site was billing summer 2026 as "FESTIVAL SUMMER" with a run of European tour dates, placing The Cure on European stages in the weeks around 19 August 2026. [2] The Cure announced in September 2025 that they would headline the main stage at Rock en Seine in Saint-Cloud on Sunday 30 August 2026, one of the festival bookings in that European run. [3]

City pickups
City charts record their parent country as the market, so these do not add to the market count above. One line per country: how many of its rooms picked the song up, and the best of them.
