Let’s do a song in three hours.’ I had this idea for a patch of this weird choir of angel’s thing started playing it and within three hours we had ‘Halo.'” Evan Bogart and I were super close friends, he was having his explosion as a songwriter, and I texted him and said, ‘My wife’s gone for three hours, will you come over? Let’s write one song.’ Beyoncé had contacted me because of a song on our first album called ‘Come Home.’ So he came over and I said, ‘Dude, Beyoncé wants me to do a song. My wife forbids me from writing or doing any work whatsoever. In an interview with Billboard Magazine, writer Ryan Tedder explained how he penned this amazing song with co-writer Evan “Kidd” Bogart, he said: “I was playing a pickup game right before a show in Michigan and I tore my Achilles heel, It was the most intense pain I ever experienced in my life. So she lets all the walls down without a fight, she trusts him now, she sees the ‘Halo’. After that, this guy came to some point in her life that now she’s convinced that he is indeed the real thing! And the “halo” revelation is that she finally sees that he’s a good man. After she meets this guy, she is very “cautious” at first tries to “test” this person to see if he is the one (It’s like I’ve been awakened, every rule I had you breaking, It’s the risk that I’m taking). ‘Halo’ is about a girl who was hurt enough before to build walls around her to protect herself.

This heavenly song describes love as phenomenal.
