Old School Fridays, songs that have the word heart in the title, songs with the word heart in them
Guess who’s back!
I didn’t mean to be away so long but I’m coming back swinging (now watch ten other people have my same picks because I said that).
Today’s theme is songs with the word “heart” in the title. I found a plethora of songs but decided that since it’s women’s history month, I have to give the ladies some shine in all my OSF posts this month.
Michel’le– Something in Your Heart(1989)
Ya’ll know you used to screetch and squeal right along with her. This was thesong back in ’89. I didn’t know what I was singing, but I was sanging. It’s a crime that this video isn’t on You Tube in it’s proper form. Someone was kind enough to upload it to Myspace.

Tamia, You Put A Move On My Heart (1995)
This song still gives me chills 14 years later. The lovely Tamia at her best. Notice she’s fully dressed and still hotter than all of these chicks out here today
Whitney Houston -Where Do Broken Hearts Go (1988)
Actually it makes me sad to post old Whitney especially after I watch this fuggery, which I do from time to time when I need a good laugh. I guess I hold a special place in my heart for her since I sang her music at my recital when I took voice lessons. This is one of my favorite songs off the Whitney album.
This ends my official picks. But if you want to enjoy some more good music, here’s some runner-ups which I hope you’ll see posted on other OSF blogs.
- Atlantic Starr–If Your Heart Isn’t In It (this is on repeat when I play my best of Atlantic Starr. And yes, I play it often!)
- The Dells–A Heart is a House for Love (Five Heartbeats, let’s hear it for them!)
- Luther Vandross – Anyone Who Had A Heart (Luther doesn’t need any help but I absolutely love the “duet” with Elton John on the So Amazing tribute album. He’s one of the few that didn’t massacre poor Luther’s music on that one)
- Mint Condition – Breakin My Heart (Pretty Brown Eyes) (This is one of my top 50 songs of all time. Nuff said)
- Tevin Campbell – Always In My Heart (Still a ridiculous song. That’s why they call Quincy Jones a genius)
- Toni Braxton & Babyface – Give You My Heart (Boomerang sountrack and pre-horse’s mane FTW!)
- Toni Braxton – Unbreak My Heart (when we could still understand the words coming out of Toni’s mouth and when we still wanted Tyson)
- Whispers– My Heart, Your Heart (need to talk more about my love for The Whispers on here. What ya’ll know bout that? Lil Viv might be conceived off of “In The Mood.” “Lady” is in my top fifty.
- Whitney Houston, Faith, & Kelly Price– Heartbreak Hotel (Another of my favorite Whit songs. Killer combination. Beautiful scenery. Everyone looked stunning…though years later, I’m still just not sure about that powder blue coat on Kelly.)

I thought you had posted Michel’le’s “Something In My Heart”, but Tamia and Whitney are just as good! Happy OSF!
@pjazzypar It’s there. I had to link to it because the official vid is not on You Tube. Let me switch this around before someone else misses it 🙂
Now these are some very good choices! You even got my pick this week on the list. But, I ain’t surprised…got that Akannection going on! lol
Love the extras… I still miss the old school Whitney. Can’t someone do something??? *sigh*
Happy OSF! 🙂
This is a strong OSF post. Tamia…I can’t say anymore…that song is…love it.
Michel’le made me wish I had a boyfriend back in the day – lol.
I continue to pray for Whitney.
Vivrant, you know your heart songs. 🙂 My mind went totally blank and I knew that was wrong because tons of songs talk about the heart. Now that I see your post, they’re all coming back to me.
I like anything produced by Quincy Jones. So liked Tamia fully dressed. When you’ve got a voice like that it’s all you need.
Whitney is Whitney.
Hadn’t seen the Michel’le video before. Thank you.
Enjoyed the visit. Happy OSF.
I had a hard time thinking of a song with the word heart in the title . . .and you got a whole list of them 🙂
Yes, I did squeal right along with Michel’le.
I love Whitney’s Where do Broken Hearts go.
Have a good weekend.
You nailed it with both of these!!! Excellent choices. I absolutely love both.
I’m kind of mad at you for your “extra” list. Now I’ve got to do some extra diggin.
Welcome back! We’ve missed you!
And I love Tamia. That song almost made my list.
I had never heard Whitney’s version of Heartbreak Hotel, thank you!
I also posted Heartbreak Hotel but I went with The King – more my era, ya know, lol. But my last song should surprise you and give some love to your inner child!
Happy OSF!
that Miche’le song use to be my jam…..I wonder if I still have the album, yeah I said album…..LOL
You have all the top songs on my list, I wrote all these songs down, as well. I had a list of 20 songs, I chose my favorite and the least likely to be picked.
I hate I passed up Michele’le, I knew someone would play Whitney, and I had to google ten minutes just to find out Mica Paris was the original singer of You Put A Move On My Heart. I knew it was remake, but if you google it, the only person you get is Tamia. I actually like Tamia’s version, better.
All stellar choices!!! You hit a home run.
I had forgotten about “Something in Your Heart”–Great song!
When I first started brainstorming for my post I assumed everyone participating in OSF would have a lot of duplicates. But such is not the case. Good picks all around.
Awesome picks!! Girl you know we are sisters, because my list was comprised of 99.8% of these same songs but I did not have the Whispers or the Braxton/Babyface duet. But everything else was on point.
I loved Miche’le(until I heard her talking on an interview)!!
You did good lady!!
I ❤ Tamia! I used to have a mad girl crush on her…that girl’s voice is whoa! And then she went and married my man, Grant and I couldn’t even be mad at her…
Your choices are hot, chick!
Happy OSF!
Ok, you went and did it again!
That list (including the extras) sounds like a playlist, so I gotta to some digging to get those songs together. Where do I begin? Any list that has Mint Condition, Tamia, Luther V. , Atlantic Starr and The Whispers? Too good, just too good.
Thanks for making my Friday! Have a good weekend.
Wicked!! Tamia is actually one of my favorite artists. She is underrated on so many levels and she is just a really down to earth kinda chick. Interviewed her and she was awesome.
And I had Miche’le on play during the week and I didn’t even think of that…lol Duh!
Loving this whole list. About to add all or most of them to my playlist.
