Album DescriptionAvailable in:
Amplified Heart is the eighth studio album by British musical duo Everything but the Girl. It was released on 13 June 1994 by Atlantic Records in the United States and Canada, and elsewhere by Blanco y Negro Records. The album was recorded and mixed in London from winter 1993 to 1994.
Primarily an acoustic-driven set, Amplified Heart brought Everything but the Girl to mainstream audiences via the dance remix of the song "Missing". Ultimately peaking at number 2 on the US Billboard Hot 100 singles chart in early 1996, "Missing" spent more than a year gaining airplay and exposing Everything but the Girl to US and worldwide audiences, leading Amplified Heart to sell upwards of 232,000 copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan. It went on to sell over 1,000,000 copies worldwide.
Amplified Heart was reissued in 2012 by Edsel Records as a two-disc deluxe set.
A 25th anniversary pressing of the album on vinyl was released in 2019. The Todd Terry club mix of "Missing" is not on the vinyl and it was added on to later pressings of the CD as a bonus track.
