Background

A mixture of pop and rock with a very Motown-sounding tune, the song is about a boy dreaming of a girl that he‘s in love with, but she doesn't answer his love.

Chart performance

After having moderate success in The Netherlands with "Like A Mountain", the first single from their debut album, Soulsister had big success with the follow-up single “The Way to Your Heart”. It was a top 10 hit in five European Countries. The Belgian release had no B-side and was thereby sold as a half price single. Afterwards a maxi single was released with a long version (5:18) and an instrumental version. After its European success, the single was released in the US in 1989 where it charted one week, on #71 on the US Billboard Hot 100[2] It is their only single to appear on the Hot 100. In addition, "The Way to Your Heart" also peaked at #5 on Billboard Adult Contemporary chart.[3]
