Locked Out Of Heaven

Locked Out of Heaven by Bruno Mars talks about a relationship so good it feels heavenly, akin to a transcendental experience being with the loved one. The lyrics mention disbelief in love and miracles until finding that special someone. The inspiration for the song came from past relationships and the joy found in new beginnings. It was praised for its sound reminiscent of 80s bands but with a modern production.
