About the work
(writers and rights holders: Michael B. Reilly and Michael Vincent)
HEAVEN KNOWS is a song that was presented as a demo recording by Vancouver writers Michael B. Reilly and Michael Vincent to guitarist/singer/songwriter Jeff Wyatt to arrange, record and produce with his own particular blues flavor.
Co-writer Michael Vincent worked with Jeff to arrange the outro backup vocals in the final 2 minutes of the song, where you can hear the 2 of them singing 3 part harmony; Michael, twice in the high registers (Left and right) and Jeff in the low (middle of the mix).
Co-Writer Michael B. Reilly of CANAMERA ENTERTAINMENT GROUP had included Jeff’s final production of HEAVEN KNOWS as the final track on his TUMBLEWEED album. Permission was also graciously granted by the two co-writers (Mike and Mike) for Jeff to release his production of HEAVEN KNOWS as a single on his own Cardboard Alley Music record label.
There is an apparent dichotomy between the music and the lyrics of HEAVEN KNOWS. The music is sad and the guitar expresses a tension (almost like another human voice singing the song) but the thoughtful lyrics have brilliance and hope, which is something love always gives.
The basic structure of the song is 12 bar blues, although this is not necessarily apparent to the listener because of the breaks, accents and the various instruments popping in and out throughout the song. The only departure from the strict 12 bar structure is the short intro and the extended outro on the “one” chord.
