It’s a bouncy pop-rock track about finding a new, exciting lover after a long period of sadness.
It’s also the first song she released since having her first child, River. Clarkson told Z100 that the beat is “act...
[Intro]
This is my heartbeat song and I'm gonna play it
Been so long, I forgot how to turn it
Up, up, up, up all night long
Oh, up, up all night long
[Verse 1]
You, where the hell did you come from?
You're a different, different kind of fun
And I'm so used to feeling numb
Now I've got pins and needles on my tongue
Anticipating what's to come
Like a finger on a loaded gun
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I can feel it rising
Temperature inside me
Haven't felt it for a long time
[Chorus]
This is my heartbeat song and I'm gonna play it
Been so long, I forgot how to turn it
Up, up, up, up all night long
Oh, up, up all night long
This is my heartbeat song and I'm gonna play it
Turned it on, but I know you can take it
Up, up, up, up all night long
Oh, up, up all night long (All night long)
[Verse 2]
I, I wasn't even gonna go out
But I never would've had a doubt
If I'd have known where I'd be now
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Your hands on my hips
And my kiss on your lips
Oh, I could do this for a long time
[Chorus]
This is my heartbeat song and I'm gonna play it
Been so long, I forgot how to turn it
Up, up, up, up all night long
Oh, up, up all night long
This is my heartbeat song and I'm gonna play it
Turned it on, but I know you can take it
Up, up, up, up all night long
Oh, up, up all night long, all night long
[Bridge]
Until tonight, I only dreamed about you
I can't believe I've ever breathed without you
Baby, you make me feel alive and brand new
Bring it one more time (One more time)
[Chorus]
This is my heartbeat song and I'm gonna play it
Been so long, I forgot how to turn it
Up, up, up, up all night long
Oh, up, up all night long
This is my heartbeat song and I'm gonna play it
Turned it on, but I know you can take it
Up, up, up, up all night long
Oh, up, up all night long, all night long
This is my heartbeat song and I'm gonna play it
Been so long, I forgot how to turn it
Up, up, up, up all night long
Oh, up, up all night long
This is my heartbeat song and I'm gonna play it
Turned it on, but I know you can take it
Up, up, up, up all night long
Oh, up, up all night long
Heartbeat Song was written by Audra Mae & Jason Evigan & Kara DioGuardi & Mitch Allan.
Heartbeat Song was produced by Jason Halbert & Greg Kurstin.
Kelly Clarkson released Heartbeat Song on Mon Jan 12 2015.
Critics have noted the song’s chorus has an eerie similarity to the chorus on Jimmy Eat World’s 2001 alternative rock hit “The Middle”.
Kelly told Rolling Stone:
I didn’t write the song, I just sang it. But I didn’t catch that. Nobody behind the scenes did. What’s funny is that I was a huge fan of...
Co-writer Kara DioGuardi:
Audra [Mae] sang on the demo and did an amazing job. It started to sound like Kelly Clarkson, so that was a natural place for the song to go. I know Kelly and we have a good connection. Whatever I was feeling, she felt, too."
