Blurb:
"Young at Heart" is the title of a popular song recorded in the 1980s by the British female singing trio Bananarama and later reworked heavily by the Scottish pop group The Bluebells. Co-written by guitarist and founder member Bobby Bluebell (real name Robert Hodgens) and his then-girlfriend Siobhan Fahey, it was first recorded by Fahey with the girl group Bananarama and appeared on their debut album Deep Sea Skiving in 1983.
The Bluebells version is very different from the original in that the melody is significantly altered and has a completely new chorus. This went on to become a UK top 10 chart success on two occasions, first reaching number 8 in the UK Singles Chart on its original release in 1984.
Almost a decade later, after The Bluebells had disbanded, the song was re-released as a single in 1993 after being featured in a TV advert on British television for the Volkswagen Golf. It became a number one hit for four weeks, leading to the band reforming temporarily to perform the song on BBC Television's Top of the Pops, where they sent up the unexpected re-release by parodying various other famous acts of the time such as Shabba Ranks and 2 Unlimited.

Young at heart
Young at heart
Young at heart
Yet what a start
Old before their time
They married young
For love at last
Was their only crime
How come I love them now
How come I love them more
Young at heart
You're so young at heart
Young at heart
Yet not a chance
To be a child at all
They told us tales
They told us lies
Don't they know
The shouldn't have told us at all
How come I love them now
How come I love them more
When all I wanted to do when I was old
Was to walk out the door
(Young at heart)
You're so young at heart
(Young at heart)
You're so young at heart
How come I love them now
How come I love them more
How come I love them now
How come I love them more
How come I love them now
How come I love them more
When all I wanted to do when I was old
Was to walk out the door
Young at heart
(You're so young at heart)
You're so young at heart
Young at heart
(You're so young at heart)
You're so young at heart
Young at heart
(You're so young at heart)
You're so young at heart
Young at heart
(You're so young at heart)
You're so young at heart
