"Heaven" is the second single from John Legend's second album, Once Again.
The song has two music videos, the first one featuring women posed as various Renaissance era paintings. The second one features more John Legend himself and less posture women. Both videos were shot at Highclere Castle in the UK and was directed by Hype Williams.
The remix of the song, released to the iTunes Store on 6 February, features Pusha T of the Clipse. The special EP also features the a cappella version of the remix, the album version and the instrumental of "Heaven".
"Heaven" was the second consecutive John Legend song that was released as a download only single in the UK. Chart rules at the time stated that if no physical format was available, a single would not be able to chart. This is why "Heaven" became John Legend's second single in a row unable to chart in the UK.
Legend was awarded a Grammy Award for Best Male R&B Vocal Performance on this song.
