"Paradise Is Here" is a song written byPaul Brady and first recorded byTina Turner, for her albumBreak Every Rule. Brady subsequently released his own version on his1987 albumPrimitive Dance, and it has also been covered byCher for her twenty-first albumIt's a Man's World.

In a 2023 interview, Paul Brady cited it as one of the songs that "transformed his life by giving him financial stability" through Turner's recording and the attendant fame.^[2]

Tina Turner's recording of the track features guitar byMark Knopfler ofDire Straits (who also produced) and was included on her 1986 albumBreak Every Rule. It was released as a single in Europe and found minor success in the UK. Instead of a remix, the 12" single featured a seven-and-a-half-minute live version from Turner's 1986/1987Break Every Rule Tour, on which the track was one of the encores. An edited version of this same recording was later included as the closing track on her1988 albumTina Live in Europe, omitting most of the closingsaxophone solo. The full-length live recording was initially unreleased on CD, but became available as part of the music video on Turner'sAll the Best – The Live Collection DVD.

In 2022, a Deluxe Edition reissue ofBreak Every Rule was released in several variations, ultimately including three different live versions of "Paradise is Here."^[3]
