Candi Staton to me is a STAR and a legend because of her bangers from the 80s, and ‘Young Hearts Run Free’ is a little time capsule from the 80s that will take you down nostalgia lane!
‘Young Hearts Run Free’ is a quintessential 80s banger, whose cassette you’d find in your mom’s old jeans. With upbeat music and painstaking lyricism, it is bound to steal your heart! The new 2024 album has 6 versions of this classic banger, but still, my favourite has to be the original! The music, composition, lyrics and vocals of this song cannot be beaten! Candi Staton’s voice is powerful yet vulnerable, this combination of contradicting emotions leaves you awestruck in the best way possible! The lyrics of this song speak of a person letting out the ache that love has caused them and asking other young hearts to run free rather than being tied down and then later being broken. This song explores themes of infidelity, love, loss and heartbreak quite beautifully! The music gives off a classic 80s vibe that I personally love!
If you want to enjoy a banger from the 80s or experience a song that will mend your broken heart, then ‘Young Hearts Run Free’ by Candi Staton is a must-add to your playlist!
