Шаблон:Infobox song "Here in My Heart" is a song by American singer Tiffany, which was released as the second single from her third studio album New Inside. The song was written by Diane Warren and produced by Phillip Damien.

Background

"Here in My Heart" was originally dedicated to AIDS victim Ryan White; however, as an attempt to take advantage of current events, it was rededicated to the troops serving in the Gulf War and became the official USO song.

The song was released in America and Japan only as a promotional single and was therefore ineligible to chart. Despite the limited release as a single, the song has gained popularity, where the official music video has gained over 780,000 views since June 2009. Although the New Inside album was a commercial failure, the song found further popularity on the 1996 Hip-O American compilation Greatest Hits in America as well as various Japanese compilations.

Release

In America, the song was released as a one-track promotional CD single and cassette via MCA, aiming for radio station play only in 1991. For the 1990 Japanese promotional single, "Here in My Heart" was released via WEA Music K.K. as a 3inch CD with a snap-pack picture sleeve design and a promotional sticker on reverse. It featured the B-side track "Our Love" which was taken from the New Inside album. The sleeve design featured a photograph of Tiffany while having a pink background color.

Following the original release on the New Inside album and as a single, the song has also appeared on five Tiffany compilations, including the 1992 MCA Victor Japanese release Best 16, the 1996 Universal/MCA Japanese release Best One, All the Best, released via MCA in Japan and Singapore only in 1996, as well as the 1996 Hip-O release Greatest Hits which was released in America.

Promotion

A music video was created for the song - the only track from the New Inside album to have an official music video.

The song was performed live around the album's release and a professionally filmed recording of the song was live at Poland's Sopot Festival in 1990. An unofficial audience recording of the song has appeared on YouTube of Tiffany performing the song live on October 27, 2009, at Upright Cabaret. Other audience recorded videos exist on YouTube, along with a live performance of the song at the Lancaster Opera House on November 20, 2011, which featured Ivan Docenko on piano.

Critical reception

Chicago Tribune writer Jan DeKnock reviewed the album for the October 18, 1990, issue. The review stated "Throughout, Tiffany shows off a new throaty snarl to go along with her powerful pipes, which, unfortunately, sometimes must fight against too many layers of busy production. The simple charm of the album's only true ballad, Diane Warren's "Here in My Heart", shows that Tiffany's true calling may prove to be country/rock, where her strong, expressive voice (sometimes reminiscent of Brenda Lee) could be shown off to greater advantage."

On November 2, 1990, The Fresno Bee reviewed the album, stating "There's nothing here that would embarrass somebody like Cher. Tiffany even cops some of Cher's chops for "Here in My Heart" - no surprise, given that it was written by Diane Warren."
