"With Every Heartbeat" is the second UK single released from Swedish pop singer-songwriter Robyn's 2005 self-titled album Robyn. A collaboration with Kleerup, it was released as a non-album single in Sweden and reached #18.
A physical single was released in the UK on 6 August 2007. It was named as both Jo Whiley's and Scott Mills's "Record of the Week" and was A-Listed on BBC's Radio 1. Robyn performed the song live on Radio 1 during the Jo Whiley show on 8 August 2007. It also received strong support by Popjustice, who later ranked the single as the best of 2007.
"With Every Heartbeat" became Robyn's biggest hit in the UK, becoming her first number one, second top ten and fourth top forty hit of her career. The song charted inside the top five on downloads alone the week before the song's physical release. Athlete and Girls Aloud have covered the song on Radio 1's Live Lounge on separate occasions.
The string parts were originally arranged by Carl Bagge using the Sibelius Software.
The song is scheduled for release in the United States in March 2008. This would be Robyn's first US single since "Show Me Love".
"With Every Heartbeat" is the name of a 1989 hit single by British pop group Five Star. It was their last single for RCA, the label they signed with in 1983. It proved a failure for the band, reachng a lowly #49 on the UK charts.
The video for the song was set in a club with the group performing a dance routine, and Denise wearing a striking hat, with an intriguing guitar-shaped pendant or brooch.
The song never appeared on a studio album, but was included on the group's Greatest Hits album, released later in 1989.
