Happy Heart, the 1969 album from Petula Clark, is a delightful and uplifting collection of songs that showcase the singer's talents and charm. From the title track, a catchy and upbeat tune that became one of Clark's biggest hits, to the romantic ballad "Love Is a Long Journey," the album is a testament to Clark's versatility as a performer.
The album features a mix of original compositions and covers of popular songs, including a lovely rendition of the Beatles' "The Fool on the Hill" and a fun version of the Rolling Stones' "This Could Be the Last Time." Clark's voice is strong and clear throughout, conveying both the joy and the heartache of the songs with ease.
One of the standout tracks on the album is "Don't Sleep in the Subway," a catchy tune about a woman trying to convince her lover not to leave her. The song became a hit for Clark, reaching the top ten on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
