"Heartbeat" is the title of a 1995 song by British pop singer Jimmy Somerville, former lead singer of the bands Bronski Beat and Communards. Released as a single from his 1995 solo album, "Dare to Love", "Heartbeat" peaked at #24 on the UK singles chart in February of that year. The song also topped the American dance chart for one week in April of 1995, becoming Somerville's first (and, to date, only) solo #1 on that chart. Backing vocals on the song are performed by Shawn Christopher and Yvonne Gage, both of whom are noted dance music singers in their own rights.
