"Heaven" is a vocal by the Canadian singer and songwriter Bryan Adams recorded in 1983, written by Adams and Jim Vallance. It get-go appeared on the A Nighttime in Heaven soundtrack album the same year and was later included on Adams' album Reckless in 1984.

The single was certified Aureate in Canada in 1985.[2]

Heavily influenced by Journeying'south 1983 hitting "Faithfully", the vocal was written while Adams served as the opening human action on that band's Frontiers Tour, and features their drummer, Steve Smith.[3] It provided Adams with his commencement number one unmarried and 3rd summit 10 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

Adams had played over 100 dates with Journey during 1983, serving as the opening human activity on their Frontiers Tour. During that fourth dimension, he and Jim Vallance co-wrote "Sky", which was inspired by Journey's hit "Faithfully".[3] It was recorded at the Power Station in New York Metropolis on June half dozen and seven, 1983.[five] Halfway through the recording session, drummer Mickey Curry – who had warned Adams most his limited availability that twenty-four hours – announced that he had to exit since he had committed in advance to a Hall & Oates session.[3] Since the recording session for "Sky" was running behind schedule, Adams called Journey drummer Steve Smith, who happened to exist in New York City at the time and he filled Back-scratch's drumming position.[3] The song first appeared on the soundtrack to the 1983 film, A Nighttime in Heaven, although information technology was not released as a single at that fourth dimension.

Adams was unconvinced that "Heaven" was suitable for his side by side studio album, Reckless,[3] a feeling that was echoed past producer Jimmy Iovine, who was working with Adams at the fourth dimension.[3] Iovine thought the song was too 'light' for the album and recommended that Adams non include information technology.[3] But at the last moment, Adams inverse his mind.[3]
