Answer: Bryan Adams

"Heaven" became Bryan Adams' first Number One single. His forte seems to be writing Number One songs for movies, as "(Everything I Do) I Do It for You" from "Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves" and "All for Love" from "Three Musketeers" also went to the top of the charts as well.

Answer: Cheek to Cheek

Irving Berlin wrote the song for the 1935 movie, "Top Hat". There are over 80 recorded versions ranging from Fred Astaire to Taco. The song was nominated for a 1936 Academy Award, but lost out to "Lullaby of Broadway".

question by MargW
9. Which of these tunes is credited to hard rock giants KISS?

Answer: Heaven's On Fire

"Heaven's On Fire" was released in 1984 and can be found on the album "Animalize." No, this song is not about Heaven going up in flames. It is a love song as only KISS knows how to write. KISS fans know what I mean.
