"Heavy Heart" is the third single from the album #4 Record by Australian rock band You Am I. It was released in 1998 and reached number 49 on the Australian national charts[1] and number 9 in that year's Hottest 100.[2]
Tim Rogers said of the song, "I played "Heavy Heart" for the first time, and Emmylou Harris was in the front row, and people were like, 'What the fuck is that song.' So I thought, 'Hmmm, maybe I'm on to something here.' I wrote that song for Charlie Rich who passed away around that time, unfortunately."[3]
