The story behind
Neneh Cherry recorded Heart (It’s a Demo!) as a song she didn't want to release. She left it as a demo, a sort of sonic sketch. She recorded it in a studio in the 90s, but never released it as part of an album. The song lasts almost five minutes, and sounds like a piece being tested, as if the artist was thinking whether it was worth taking further. She put it on a disc called Raw Like Sushi, but not as part of the official album. It was included as a demo, a way of showing how something could sound without committing to the final production. The song is still being listened to today, but not as part of a studio album, but as a sample of how musical ideas are built. ↓ Skip to chords
