It reached #12 on the Easy Listening chart and #62 in the UK for Clark.  Clark was reportedly dismayed when Williams was a guest star on her second TV special, with the plan to perform the song they were both launching as a single. \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic ;\"\u003eHappy Heart\u003c\/span\u003e was notably used on the soundtrack accompanying the British film Shallow Grave (1994), starring Ewan MacGregor and Christopher Eccleston, and directed by Danny Boyle. According to a reviewer on allmusic, \"Clark is a pop star, pop is what she does best, and the orchestration works here when she sings \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic ;\"\u003eLet It Be Me\u003c\/span\u003e, the many instruments augmenting, not battling, the singer's unique and familiar pipes. \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic ;\"\u003eSome\u003c\/span\u003e is just beautiful, worth the price of admission on its own. There are more highs than lows on \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic ;\"\u003ePortrait of Petula\u003c\/span\u003e, and \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic ;\"\u003eMy Funny Valentine\u003c\/span\u003e is charming and sweet. \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic ;\"\u003eWindmills of Your Mind\u003c\/span\u003e is an intriguing version, sophisticated somewhat like Noel Harrison's, but bringing the fan of Clark back to the fact that, as with Springfield, her gems like \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic ;\"\u003eIt's a Sign of the Times\u003c\/span\u003e are where she wins over listeners completely.
