"You're in My Heart (The Final Acclaim)" is Rod Stewart's own song, written and sung for his 1977 album Foot Loose & Fancy Free, and it's Rod at his most tender: slow, introspective and wrapped around a love affair. Tom Dowd produced, and the band behind him is stacked: Carmine Appice on drums, Phil Chen on bass, Jim Cregan on guitar, Fred Tackett on acoustic, John Barlow Jarvis on piano, Nicky Hopkins on synthesizer and Richard Greene on violin, with Appice and Cregan singing backup.
It was a hit all over the map, number one in Australia, number two in Canada, number three in the UK and number four in the US. The lyric slips in a nod to his favourite football clubs, Celtic and United, and the album's inner sleeve shows their names floating out of a car stereo.
