This song is a cover of the song sung by a character known as “The Lady in the Radiator” in David Lynch’s surrealist horror film Eraserhead. Recalls Black Francis: All the Pixies went to the movies together. I dragged them down to see Eraserhead ’cause I loved it so much. I had this brilliant idea: “Hey, let’s cover the song from the movie!” “In Heaven” became a mainstay of their live act – and remained that way for their entire career. The song was first recorded for their “Purple Tape” demo in 1987 – which remained unreleased until 2002. In May 1988, they performed it for a session recorded by famed British DJ John Peel (later released on 1998’s Pixies at the BBC) and a live version was released on the “Gigantic” single later that year. [Pre-Chorus] In Heaven Everything is fine In Heaven Everything is fine [Chorus] In Heaven Everything is fine You got your good thing And I've got mine [Pre-Chorus] In Heaven Everything is fine In Heaven Everything is fine [Chorus] In Heaven Everything is fine You got your good thing And I've got mine [Pre-Chorus] In Heaven Everything is fine In Heaven Everything is fine [Bridge] In Heaven [Chorus] In Heaven Everything is fine You got your good thing And I've got mine [Pre-Chorus] In Heaven Everything is fine In Heaven Everything is fine
