The band's self-titled record in 1985 marked a new era for Heart. With a big and bold sound that incorporated many keyboards typical of the 80s, the band achieved great success with more radio-friendly singles. Kicking off their remarkable run was "What About Love?" peaking at #10. The album would produce 4 more charting singles, including the band's first #1 hit, "These Dreams." The band would hit #1 again in 1987 with "Alone."
Their 1985 record remains a favorite among fans because the songs that weren't released were also of high caliber. "Nobody Home" is an example, a cautionary tale about dissing people who care about you.
Times started to get tough for Heart in the early 90s as other types of bands from Seattle dismantled the melodic rock scene. The band hasn't seen the chart since 1993, when "Will You be There (In The Morning)" struggled to reach #39.
