Wolf Alice - Heavenward Lyrics






Your mind created your own small heaven
I was there just an hour
I could tell that you'd be leaving
So could it be gone, all our power

Go heavenward
Like all Earth angels should
Go heavenward
Like all Earth angels should

I'm gonna celebrate you forever
You taught us things we all should know
Yeah, I'm gonna celebrate you forever
I long to see you when it's my time

Go heavenward
Like all Earth angels should
Go heavenward
Like all Earth angels should

See you dancing on
You dancing on
See you dancing on
You dancing on
See you dancing on
You dancing on
See you dancing on
You dancing on

Wolf Alice Heavenward Comments
  1. I.... M....

    I recently listened to Visions of a Life for the first time and this was the song of the record that stood up the most to me. It's a darn shame that it's the first song by track order because, while the rest of the album is pretty good, nothing came close to Heavenward. It sounds a lot like the rock I love to listen to.

  2. C.... V....

    Fantastic ! I really would love to see one of your show one day !

  3. S.... D....

    The first time I heard this, idk why, I remembered Linger by Cranberries.

  4. L.... V....

    My favourite band ever.

  5. E.... h....

    what a great clip

  6. E.... ....

    anyone noticed that alot of the bands signed to dirty hit have these kind of music videos. the really fast forwarded tour videos. the 1975 has head.cars.bending. and pale waves has the tide.

  7. C.... ....

    A while ago my father died suddenly aged 78 which was a great shock, im not into belief etc I was adopted at 2 weeks old by him and my adoptive mother I knew why i was adopted because they lost a few babies in birth so they gave up and adopted me
    So I buried my father a good few months passed he visited me in a dream holding a baby girl it was very vivid i knew it meant something but i couldnt put my finger on it
    Im into heavy music normally but by chance i heard this in the background of some thing on tv i knew i had to listen
    Next my mother told me that she lost a baby 3 days old and it was buried at the same graveyard as my father but he would not tell her where and it had troubled her for all her life
    So i kept listening to this song im not good at picking lyrics up so i kind of hum along
    Next i bought the cd
    After a few weeks i looked at the sleeve notes and lyric sheet
    Heavenward angels etc took no notice
    Next I visited my fathers grave walked around a bit saw small angel grave stone didnt pay much attention
    The grave digger person was there so i thought ill ask him if there were any deaths of babies called same surname as me after lots of looking
    Yes there it was Susan 3 days old unmarked grave we went to the plot
    Yes it was the angel grave been there sice 1964 un touched
    Not Only That the grave was split into 2 plots the angel was for my dads best friends boy who died 4 years old and Susan the 3 day old baby was buried at the foot of the grave unmarked
    He took this to his grave and never told anyone not even my mam because he knew she would be there every day for the rest of her life mourning
    Wether it was wrong or right he chose to take the pain to the grave
    So then it all fell into place
    The Dream Then Heavenward Song Then Found Grave with Angel Then boom the lyrics just read them and see..... My Mother is so happy she knows where the baby is buried we are now going to get a grave stone and visit Like all earth angels should...............

  8. R.... C....

    Such a unique band ..so so talented...I love them.

  9. P.... ....

    Love YU Wolfy.

  10. D.... ....

    This song borrows heavily from My Bloody Valentine, and that's a good thing

  11. E.... ....

    very strange but finally IT WORKS :) in love with all the things that You do

  12. a.... v....

    My Bloody Valentine + Slowdive : Great !

  13. e.... d....

    I watch this video and cry 5 times a day ;)

  14. U.... F....

    UAHAHHH ! Who r they ? They are GREAT ! 😊

  15. C.... S....

    A convert as of the last year and a half. This album as much as I've heard has not disappointed. The have that element of 90s to it but with a very contemporary twist. Elle's voice conjures up Hope Sandoval's and I like it more.

  16. A.... O....

    One of my favorite songs hands down

  17. S.... M....

    Seeing them at Brixton - 20th December. Cant wait. Get your tickets now..as they've, deservedly just won the Mercury Music prize. Sure to become very popular now!

    S.... M....

    So jealous, have a blast dude

  18. M.... E....

    I live in Morocco and it feels like a prison because It’s difficult to leave the country and go see my favorite band live.
    I love you guys, keep making great music.
    One day I’ll be in the front raw watching you live. One day...

  19. U.... F....

    Ever since L.I.I.I.E.B.E. 😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇

  20. J.... L....

    How can people think this sounds like The Cranberries??

  21. C.... A....

    Ich ❤ die Band ❤

  22. E.... B....

    Gives me goosebumps...in love with this song ❤❤❤

  23. S.... P....

    So fuc*** good

  24. A.... H....

    My kind o' music.

  25. d.... ....

    I went to four shows on their U.S tour and the last one I went to in NYC was my favorite show I've ever been to... This band sounds absolutely amazing live.. It was like I was at a NIrvana show or something..

  26. d.... ....

    Nice song, i love shoegaze touch!

  27. E.... M....

    Please post the early demos that were played on On the Road film. Would be so cool to hear songs in the making x

  28. d.... ....

    I'm fucking obsessed with this band, love the vibe at their shows..

  29. A.... B....

    Wow! What a superb channel! Going to get back to pursuing my own dreams from all the inspiration.

  30. k.... h....

    i recently went to their show in boston (it was actually my first concert, ty for that experience wa <3) and i remember going nuts for this song, not really understanding what it meant or even really listening to the lyrics, just going crazy with the rest of the crowd and letting myself enjoy the music. i finally looked up the lyrics a couple of days ago and realized that the song was alot more solemn that it sounds, and at first i felt terrible for how insane and joyful i got when i heard it live. watching this video, two lines of the song really stick out to me: “im gonna celebrate you forever” and “see you dancing on, go dancing on” and realized that my reaction to hearing it live was every bit appropriate and human as it was probably meant to be.

    i can’t imagine what wolf alice went though going through that grieving and mourning of their passed friend that inspired this song, from what i understand, but i like to think that they want their audience to find the excitement and joy and liveliness in the music, both in life and in the moment they hear this song, and simultaneously this songs reminds them to do the same too. and i remembered after the show i was in shambles, in tears and absolutely blown by the show, both being my first concert ever and also one of my fav bands ever, but also every minuscule detail that allowed me to be there and experience that joy wholly.

    thank you, wolf alice, not only for this beautiful song, this beautiful video, but also allowing me to experience an emotion i hadn’t felt in a long time—grateful. ❤️

    k.... h....

    Your first concert ! Wow, what a great way to start! I saw them in Austin in April. My first concert was Elton John in 1975, lol.

  31. R.... ....

    many songs are blocked

  32. L.... V....

    their music has sounds of the 80s and 90s, but still has a unique tune to it. All of their songs are a work of art. This song is the kind to listen to when hanging out of a car window on a sunny day with the wind whipping at your face💗

  33. B.... R....

    so good. I have a different kind of crush on every member of this band

  34. J.... G....

    I feel sorry for the 86 who 'not liked' this.

  35. J.... E....

    Avril can do better...just saying.

  36. j.... p....

    I love the concert footage but it might have gone better with a different song IMO. Heavenward is such a beautiful song and sentiment I think it would go better with video like dreamy skyscapes and scenic vistas. I was riding my bike in the country side when this song came on and it was magical.

  37. M.... ....

    How did they do that guitar riff that sounds like a whale in the bridge?

    M.... ....

    Joff is a practitioner of Guitar-Majik...

  38. J.... M....

    i really want to see youuggh

  39. g.... ....

    Everything about Ellie right now is sexy. She's in that perfect zone that all men love to find. Enjoy it everyone. Doesn't last forever.

  40. T.... ....

    I have no one to go with to go see them..who wants to come with me?

  41. A.... ....

    Wow this is so mesmerizing! I love Wolf Alice and this song is definitely one of my favorite in 2017. Hope to hear more soon :)!

  42. h.... p....

    it sounds so nostalgic

  43. D.... I....

  44. P.... S....

    Andy captures both the drive and easy-going spirit of the band.

  45. L.... M....

    there isn't a song I don't love from Wolf Alice, honestly just amazing!! xx

    L.... M....

    I haven't discovered any that I don't like. I'm almost 60 and having a teen-crush on this band. Best band live since early Foo Fighters I think.

  46. K.... ....

    Found out about wolf alice from Jamie hyneman. I fucking love them. Best band I've ever heard I think.

    I Love This Band.. Their Music has Filled This Emptiness in My Heart, that has been Missing for 7 Years..( a breakup) of Course..p.s. I Still Love You..

  64. s.... ....

    they are kind of bringing the 90-th aesthetic back into play, and it really works out pretty well

  65. J.... C....

  70. B.... 9....

    So when I found dont delete the kisses i didnt realize these songs were just coming out :O love this band

  71. M.... ....

    I really like them! But this video has been made a million times over. However I understand having a limited budget cannot afford a band to make extravagant videos each time. I like Andy DeLuca tho.

    M.... ....

    MFC1791 I like you too

  72. Y.... D....

    She looks like a rock version of Taylor swift

  73. A.... E....

    Wolf Alice ha editado un segundo disco, siempre el más difícil, que cumple con la expectativas e incluso las supera. No fallan tras el éxito logrado hace dos años con su álbum de debut "My love is cool". La banda londinense demuestra talento al recuperar el rock alternativo de los 90 y su cantante Ellie Roswell se asienta como líder de una banda que se muestra compacta. Antes de lanzar su primer disco, con las primeras grabaciones, yo ya les aventuraba un gran futuro, me alegra que se haya cumplido. Les ví por primera vez en una sesión matinal del Festival DCode y en directo aún me convencieron más. Ellie Roswell tiene carisma, el guitarrista es todo un espectáculo, su bajista era como un neo-punk y el batería un tipo concentrado en los ritmos y sumamente efectivo. En escena atractivos, con esos temas que tratan de nuestras preocupaciones diarias, además de una puesta en escena efectista donde no paran de agitarse sobre el escenario.
    "Visions Of A Life" es un gran segundo disco, más rico en matices que su debut, más arriesgado como en ese punk-pop violento de "Yuk Foo" o esos temas pop irresistibles ‘Don’t Delete The Kisses" o "Beatifully Unconventional". Aquí hay de todo como aproximaciones a Joy Formidable en "Heavenward" o Radiohead en "The Bends". El disco ha sido grabado en Los Ángeles con el productor Justin Meldal-Johnsen (Paramore, Beck, M83) y ciertamente las canciones son acertadas, aquí no hay temas de relleno. Una curiosidad, la canción "Beautifully unconventional" está basada en la película "Heathers", interpretada por Winona Ryder y Crhistian Slater.
    Música independiente novedades.
