"Inside Your Heaven" is a song written by Andreas Carlsson, Pelle Nylén, Savan Kotecha and produced by Desmond Child. Two versions of the song were released as singles in 2005 (see 2005 in music): one by American Idolwinner Carrie Underwood, and another by Idolrunner-up Bo Bice.

Underwood's recording of the song, released on June 14, 2005 in the U.S., debuted at number one on the Canadian Singles Chart and on the U.S. Hot 100, where it remained for seven and one week, consecutively, atop the charts. It was the longest running single of 2005 in Canada. It was certified gold by the RIAA and two times platinum by the CRIA, and it was later included on her debut album, Some Hearts. The B-side is a cover of the Martina McBride song "Independence Day". The song entered the UK Singles Chart at number forty-nine and moved up to forty-six the following week.

Bice's version of "Inside Your Heaven" was released on June 21, 2005 and peaked at number two on the Hot 100. It became the first American Idolsingle in the history of Billboardto replace the winner's song at number one on the Hot 100 Single Sales chart. It was certified gold by the RIAA. The B-side is a cover of the song "Vehicle" by Ides of March.

The song won the Billboard Music Awards for "Top-Selling Country Single of the Year" and "Top-Selling Hot 100 Song of the Year" (Bice's version was also nominated in this category). It also helped Underwood win the award for "Country Single Sales Artist of the Year". Carrie Underwood's version sold 821,000 copies, while Bo Bice's version sold 401,000.

Inside Your Heaven was never released to country radio, however it charted on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart due to unsolicited airplay.
