"Show Me Heaven" is a song written by Maria McKee, Eric Rackin and Jay Rifkin recorded by McKee for the soundtrack to the movie Days of Thunder (1990). It was later covered by Robin Zander, Laura Branigan, and other artists.
Originally written by Joshua Rifkin and Eric Rankin, when McKee was first offered the song, she refused to record it unless she was allowed to change the lyrics. She was, and with a co-writing credit, "Show Me Heaven", produced by Paul Stavely O'Duffy, became McKee's first UK hit and by far her highest-charting single ever.
The theme song to the Tom Cruise movie Days of Thunder, McKee's recording was a massive hit in the UK, spending four weeks at number-one in September 1990. The song failed to enter the U.S. pop charts, peaking at number twenty-eight on the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart. Although it was her only number-one as a performer, her song "A Good Heart" was taken to number-one in November 1985 by Feargal Sharkey.
