The story behind the song

"Heaven" was recorded by Bryan Adams in 1983, co-written with Jim Vallance, and first appeared on the A Night in Heaven soundtrack album that same year. It was later included on Adams' 1984 album Reckless. The song was heavily influenced by Journey's hit "Faithfully", and Adams wrote it while opening for Journey on their Frontiers Tour, even featuring their drummer, Steve Smith, on the track. This timeless power ballad became Adams' first number one single in the U.S.
