Vagabond Heart is the 16th studio album by the singer-songwriter Rod Stewart, released in 1991. The album reached #10 in the US, and reached #2 in the UK. The album featured five singles, among them a cover for Robbie Robertson's song "Broken Arrow" (#20 in the U.S.) and Van Morrison's song "Have I Told You Lately," which would become a hit two years later (in a live version) and is Rod Stewart's most recent Top Five solo hit in the US and the UK. The two biggest hits from the album were "Rhythm of My Heart" (#5 in the U.S.) and "The Motown Song" (#10 in the U.S.).
