“Heaven” is a song by Swedish producer Avicii, with vocals from Coldplay’s lead singer, Chris Martin. Unbeknownst at the time of the song’s creation in 2014, the song reminisces on Avicii’s life and projects his feelings of being an EDM producer, as well as his struggle with life and death.
The song was supposed to be released on Avicii’s second album, Stories, but was later reworked with the likes of Simon Aldred, lead singer of the band Cherry Ghost.
After the sudden death of Avicii, the song surfaced again, and first performed live at a tribute from Nicky Romero during a set of Kingsland Festival with a one-minute snippet of the song. Nearly a month later, the studio version of the song was played on NRJ Norway, and the full version leaked online at last.
A year later, the song (with Chris Martin’s vocals) was selected for inclusion on Avicii’s posthumous album, titled “TIM”. It was then issued as the album’s third single following the album release.
