Outskirts of Heaven

"Outskirts of Heaven" is a song recorded by American country music singer Craig Campbell.

The song is about the narrator's desires to live "on the outskirts of Heaven" when he dies, comparing such a place to his rural lifestyle.

[1] It is in a 3/4 time signature, including accompaniment from Troy Lancaster on electric guitar, Mike Johnson on steel guitar, and Tony Harrell on piano.

During the production process, Campbell asked producer Mickey Jack Cones to make the intro softer so the song could "grow".

[2] A review from Taste of Country was favorable, praising Campbell's singing voice and the production.
