Heaven for Everyone

About Heaven for Everyone

"Heaven for Everyone" is a song written by Queen drummer Roger Taylor. It originally appeared in his side project The Cross's album Shove It, with Freddie Mercury as a guest vocalist, and it is the album's fourth track. It was reworked with Queen's music and appeared in the 1995 album Made in Heaven where it was the seventh track, and was released as the first single — four years after Mercury’s death. The song reached number two on the UK Singles Chart and in the Netherlands while becoming a top-ten hit in Austria, Belgium, Finland, France, Iceland, Ireland and Switzerland. Directed by David Mallet, the music video opens with images of graffiti messages in tribute to Mercury outside his home, Garden Lodge, Kensington in London, before showing footage of Georges Méliès seminal 1902 silent film A Trip to the Moon and The Impossible Voyage (1904). more »
