Ever noticed how many songs with 'heaven' in the title are awesome?. We have, hence this list... The songs are listed in no particular order... just in case you were wondering....
Click on the album artwork to read the Rock Realms review of each particular release.
Def Leppard
Heaven Is (1992)
Totally underrated Lep's song that's full of feel good fun.
Foreigner
With Heaven On Our Side (1992)
Foreigner doing what they do best - sounding superb. Recorded for their Greatest Hits record, but actually one of their best tracks. Go figure.
Grand Illusion
Heaven Or Hell (2004)
The best song from one of the best albums of recent years.
Bryan Adams
Thought I'd Died And Gone To Heaven (1991)
The man was on a roll on this album - making song after song of pure aural bliss. This is one of the better tracks and we like it... a lot.
Brainstorm
Heavenly (2005)
It doesn't actually contain the word heaven as such, but it's close enough :) Amazing ballad.
Voodoo Circle
Heaven Can Wait (2008)
Stunningly powerful track from Alex Beyrodt, David Readman and co. Sounds a touch like Whitesnake but could that really be called a bad thing?
Yngwie Malmsteen
Heaven Tonight (1988)
If this is what happens when you shove Yngwie and Joe Lynn Turner in a studio, perhaps they should have done it more often!
Dio
Hungry For Heaven (1985)
The first Dio song I ever remember seeing the video of, and what a way to start! Great song.
Richard Marx
Heaven Only Knows (1987)
Not one of his most famous songs, but certainly one of the best.
From The Inside
One More Night In Heaven (2008)
Danny Vaughn at his finest is very fine indeed... and this really is the man at his vocal best.
Dokken
Heaven Sent (1987)
A former Rock Realms all-time favourite song, this little baby will rock your world.
Led Zeppelin
Stairway To Heaven (1971)
What can you say about this track? So good even Rolf Harris had a go.
Loverboy
Heaven In Your Eyes (1986)
Loverboy are one of the most underrated bands around. Shame. With songs like this they should be one of the best.
Bad English
Heaven Is A 4 Letter Word (1989)
Heaven is of course a 6 letter word, but don't let that put you off. Maybe suggesting it has 4 letters is indeed bad English?
House Of Lords
All The Way To Heaven (2006)
House Of Lords pulled out a beast with this album. Even the songs without heaven in the title are almost good enough for this list.
Just missing the cut, honourable mentions in no particular order go to Heaven by Bryan Adams, South Of Heaven by Slayer, Heaven by Warrant, Heaven Will Come by Famous, Knockin' On Heaven's Door by Guns N' Roses, War In Heaven by Bob Catley and Closer To Heaven by Mark LaFrance.
