You dont mean Berlinda Carlisle do you? Heaven Is a Place on Earth is very LOAP ish. Have you heard Bad Luck by FM, even FM said it was a blatant rip off of the Bad Name riff!

No, thatīs another story. If You Were A Woman was the first song in which DC used that chorus idea of his. He wasnīt too happy with how the song turned out to be so he re-used the same structure in Bad Name, in which, of course, it worked well indeed.
Heaven Is A Place on Earth was a song on a Belinda Carlisle album (in 1987 if I remember), written by Rick Nowels & Ellen Shipley. Many pointed out the similarities between it and LivinīOn A Prayer. It may be obvious but on the other hand, thatīs how big choruses used to sound like those days.
