| A Good Heart | Composer: | Maria McKee | |
| From: | Album: Late December (2007) | ||
| Other versions: | Lone Justice demoed the song during sessions for their debut album in 1984. | ||
| Dave Stewart also recorded Maria performing the track solo on the piano as a country ballad. | |||
| Trivia: | Feargal Sharkey's cover was a #1 hit in the UK for 2 weeks in November 1985. | ||
| Owing to the song's
popularity in the UK Maria started to perform it herself at live shows
in the early 1990s and resurrected it again for her 2006 Peddlin' Dreams
Alone tour. She finally recorded a studio version herself in 2006 which
was released as a single in April 2007.

| Trivia: | One of 2 songs Maria co-wrote with Steve Earle that he recorded for his 1990 | ||
| album
The Hard Way; while Maria demoed the other track (Promise You Anything)
she is not known to have recorded or performed this. In an interview
Steve Earle gave the main credit to Maria for the lyrics - certainly
there does seem to be a lyrical affinity between this song and other
Maria songs from the same era, namely Panic Beach and The Silver Age.
