"Hand on Your Heart" is a song by Australian singer Kylie Minogue from her second studio album, Enjoy Yourself (1989), and released as its lead single on 24 April 1989. Much like her previous releases up to Let's Get to It (1991), the song was written and produced by English songwriting and record production trio Stock Aitken Waterman (SAW). Referenced tracks during composition included "This Old Heart of Mine" by the Isley Brothers and "That's the Way Love Is" by Ten City.[1]
Upon release, "Hand on Your Heart" received positive reviews from music critics, who deemed it a highlight from the album and praised it as a strong single. It was also a commercial success, peaking at number four in Australia and within the top-ten in Finland, France, Japan and Switzerland. "Hand on Your Heart" became Minogue's third number-one hit on the UK Singles Chart.
The song was performed on some tours by Minogue, including it on her Enjoy Yourself Tour, Rhythm of Love Tour, and was featured on her Showgirl: The Greatest Hits Tour and the Homecoming Tour. In 2006, Swedish singer José González released an acoustic cover version of "Hand on Your Heart" as a single. His version peaked at number 29 on the UK Singles Chart.
