"Heart Is Full" is a song recorded by Swedish indie pop band Miike Snow for their third studio album, iii (2016). Written by the band alongside Vincent Pontare, the song contains elements from Marlena Shaw's 1967 recording of "Waiting for Charlie to Come Home", penned by Bob Hilliard and Burt Bacharach. "Heart Is Full" is an electropop and hip hop song with instrumentation provided by drums, horn and Wurlitzer electric piano. Described by the band as different from their other work, the song was selected as the album's lead single as vocalist Andrew Wyatt deemed it a "jarring reintroduction" following the band's three-year break.[1] The single was released on 30 October 2015 through Jackalope and Atlantic.
"Heart Is Full" received mixed reviews from critics; some applauded the use of the sample combined with the hip hop beat, while others felt it was uninspired as a whole. The single became the band's first entry on the American Hot Rock & Alternative Songs chart, peaking at number 41. Elsewhere, it managed to chart at number 194 in France. The accompanying music video was directed by Lance Drake and pays homage to several works of science fiction. An official remix of "Heart Is Full" featuring American rap duo Run the Jewels was released on 20 November 2015.
