thanx for spinning this one!Mike https://soundcloud.com/mojo-mike/up-there-in-heavenUp There In Heaven i don't know what time it is up there in heaven i don't even know if it's day or night just thought i'd send this prayer i've been saving for the angel of my life i don't know if it's raining up there in heaven i don't even know if the sun always shines please honor my words to the soul of a woman who once was a true love of mine she was my angel on earth she was my life's worth so take care of her i pray let my death be divine and i pray in time we'll meet again on my final day i don't know if i'll make my way up there in heaven i don't even now if it's there i'm bound but i'm praying for the day i hold that woman for then my death will be safe and sound chorus chorus

Wow
What a beautiful piece of music. The subject matter got me all choked up. Nice work Michael! Love that fiddle? Violin? Velvety smooth arrangement. Nice...

Mike,
I like the musical break and the build in the last verse. I also like the idea of a man singing about his lady in heaven. I guess there are some country tunes like that but I can't think of one.
I can't assume I will get to heaven, so never could have written this..
This has a nice vibe to it.

"I'm hedgin' my bets." Great job on a theme that could easily have been maudlin. You pulled it off though with excellent writing and a nice supporting production. Enjoyed it.
