It sounds like Song Of The Heart was recorded very "freely", in that it sounds fresh and energized (like S.S.T. was). To me, it's average Prince. Middle-to-bottom of the pack.

What's fascinating to me is how popular the song is simply because it's tied to a VERY successful movie. penguin

Either way, hit or miss, I'd like to see Prince release more "one-off" tracks like this in the future.

I think the amazing thing being referenced to is that someone would consider the song "popular."

It's just so lightweight. Anybody still playing SST? Because in the same way I don't think anyone will be playing Song of the Heart in a year's time...

yes hrmph

I thought it was a well crafted pop song, so there

"The Song Of The Heart" is pretty much non-existent over here in Germania.
I can't say that much about it's popularity, but it is a catchy song, as well.

I am still playing SST! I love it!

But I do agree with you that Song Of The Heart is lightweight. I bought the Happy Feet soundtrack just to have it (from a completist collector's point of view).

No, i meant the song, not the movie: how do u know it's popular & how do u know it's BECAUSE of the movie?

It's fucking terrible.

Worst song Prince has made in years. Literally. The low point of his new "high point." I swear, Prince fans settle for so much less nowadays.

the song is NICE....but people don`t get sucked in.....
It is fitting for a lovely penguin film..which i saw and loved...
but no way better than anything on 3121 !!! it makes me laugh, no not laugh shake my head with a big frown...
Stop and listern.....

Heart song.....( not song of the heart !!)....calling this nice..
Then go to the real work.... Head,IIWYG,3121,Shockadelica,Girl...i can`t go on...
Prince can do Heart Song like making a good meal....Just get the man the right ingredients...If you give him bread and jam u get a sandwich...U C !!!
This is Prince..... Ask and he can do....
PEACE...
""And if i never c u again....it`s alright ""

honesty....

In my opinion Song of the Heart is a children's song.I don't think that it was meant for adults lololol .So if kids like the movie Happy Feet and Songofthe Heart than Prince has done a good job lolol. I also feel that to really enjoy Song ofthe Heart a person must place themselves in a child like moment- example think like a child lololol.


Peace,
acjohns

I just took my son to this movie on the weekend, and I *really* didn't like it (though my son enjoyed it, and of course that's the point - I just kept my thoughts to myself razz ). Song of the Heart (heh heh... SOTH!) was definitely the high point, after sitting through that!
