Juice Newton • Queen of Hearts (lyric video) #Shorts

“Queen of Hearts” is about falling for an unreliable lover; although you know it’s a bad move, you are simply unable to resist them.Show more

The Welsh musician Dave Edmunds was the first artist to record “Queen of Hearts”. The song appears on his 1979 album, “Repeat When Necessary”.

However, “Queen of Hearts” had its highest success via its inclusion on the 1981 album Juice by Juice Newton. The song also afforded Newton an international hit with Top Ten hit status in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, South Africa and Switzerland and more moderate success in Austria, Germany and the Netherlands. In the US it peaked at #2, held from the top spot by “Endless Love” (which held the top spot for nine weeks). She won a 1982 Grammy for Best Female Vocalist in the C&W category.
