Heaven (Talking Heads song)
"Heaven" is a song by the American new wave band Talking Heads from their 1979 album Fear of Music. The song has been called "the calm after their unusual ominous storm" by AllMusic as well as something "psychologists would certainly have a field day with" by journalist Ian Gittins.
Dave Bell, writing for quarterly UK magazine Ceasefire, argued that the song "epitomises pop as Samuel Beckett might write it: tedious, beautiful and desperate".In 2004 Eric Burdon covered the song on his album My Secret Life.
Simply Red covered the song on their 1985 debut album Picture Book.
