  "Halfway to Heaven" is a 1992 single released by the Swedish heavy metal band Europe. It was the third single from their album Prisoners in Paradise. The single charted at number 42 in the United Kingdom.
  
  The song was co-written by Europe vocalist Joey Tempest and Canadian musician/songwriter Jim Vallance in Vancouver, Canada in April 1991. "In March 1991 I received a call from Frankie LaRocka, former drummer for Bryan Adams," Vallance says, "Frankie was working as an A&R man for Epic Records in New York, and he wanted to put me together with Joey Tempest, lead singer for the group Europe. Joey flew to Vancouver in April '91, and we spent four productive days writing and demoing in my studio."
  
  The music video for the song was shot at the Marquee Club in London.
