Our last Heart Single for Record of the Week Love month.
As the seventies drew to a close, and the eighties began, Heart lost a lot of momentum. First, their Private Audition album became thier first album to miss gold status. That album was followed by Passionworks which also failed. Heart was clearly in trouble. Strangely enough their most popular era was ahead, but no one knew that yet.
This is a great single and Passionworks is a really good album, but FM radio seemed to have tired of Heart for some reason, and because airplay had fallen way off, the record sales declined.
Not everything had gone bad. The Heart tour supporting this album was a dual bill with Kansas, and despite the decline in record sales was a huge success.
