About Heaven

"Heaven" is a song by Filipino singer Nina from her 2002 debut album of the same name. It was released as the album's first commercial single, and her first single as an artist, in August 2002 along with the album by Warner Music Philippines. The song was written by Brett Laurence and Gary Haase, and produced by Ferdie Marquez. The song is heavily influenced by the international urban sound, and Nina is one of the first pop-R&B artists to have entered the Philippine music scene. It was considered to be risky for Warner to release, since OPM music at that time focused on ballads and love songs, making the song a rare record during its release. Upon release, the song and the album were met with critical acclaim, with most critics pointing out the international sound and smooth production as well as Nina's wide vocal range. Manila Bulletin described it as "a groovy breakthrough, boasting of an international-sounding music and voice, sung by a young Filipina talent". It was not a huge commercial hit, but it enabled Nina to break through the music scene. On August 20, 2002, the song was made available on digital download through iTunes and Amazon.com MP3 Download on January 23, 2007.

Never been any good at love
Never could find no one that I dreamed of
I must've been too blind to see
That you were always there waiting for me

But then the spell was broken, my eyes opened
Starting believing in love again
Just when I gave up on miracles
You rescued me and showed me the way

You must be an angel
Feels like I've gone to heaven
Caught up in your love spell
Feels like I'm in heaven, heaven

Never thought I'd see the day
A special guy like you would come my way
I wish I knew the reasons why
You gave me the strength for one more try

How could love at first sight work out so right
I can't believe this is paradise
Just when I thought love would never come
You came to me swept me away

You must be an angel
Feels like I've gone to heaven, heaven
And it keeps on getting better baby
Caught up in your love spell
Feels like I'm in heaven, heaven

You must be an angel
Feels like I've gone to heaven, heaven
And it keeps on getting better baby
Caught up in your love spell
Feels like I'm in heaven, heaven

Suddenly my whole world changes
I found the kind of love that I've been thinking of
I know that dreams come true
'Cause my heaven is waiting to take me
Take me when I'm with you

You must be an angel
Feels like I've gone to heaven, heaven
And it keeps on getting better baby
Caught up in your love spell
Feels like I'm in heaven, heaven

You must be an angel
Feels like I've gone to heaven, heaven
And it keeps on getting better baby
Caught up in your love spell
Feels like I'm in heaven, heaven

You must be an angel
Heaven
You must be an angel

Nina

No income, no asset (NINA) is a term used in the United States mortgage industry to describe one of many documentation types which lenders may allow when underwriting a mortgage. A loan issued under such circumstances may be referred to as a NINA loan or NINJA loan. NINA programs are ostensibly created for those with hard to verify incomes (waiters, etc.) but in actuality have been popularly used in situations where aggressive mortgage lenders and brokers did not want any trouble qualifying otherwise non-qualifying loans, thus becoming a significant factor in the subprime lending crisis. A significant number of NINA loans were never possible for the applicant to repay and have resulted in defaults for this reason, as laid out in detail by investigative report… more »
