The Hot Press Newsdesk, 01 Aug 2012
‘The Secret of Living’ is a classy new single out now from the 'A Woman's Heart' group.
It’s an upbeat, Cajun-tinged track written by Eleanor McEvoy 20 years after the release of the single version of her song ‘Only A Woman’s Heart’, sung by herself and Mary Black, kickstarted the Woman’s Heart phenomenon that resulted in over one million record sales and sell-out tours around Ireland and abroad.
The new track features Eleanor plus Gemma Hayes, Mary Coughlan, Sharon Shannon and Hermione Hennessy, all of whom will be uniting for the Woman’s Heart concerts at the Olympia Theatre in Dublin for five nights from Wednesday, August 29 to Sunday, September 2.

Following the unprecedented success of her song ‘Only A Woman’s Heart’ in 1992, Eleanor McEvoy could have taken to her easy chair and basked in the accruing glory and the mounting royalties, stirring only to attempt to rewrite that song every couple of years.
2001-04-26 - REVIEW
Snapshots, is Eleanor McEvoy's best album thus far. She hasn't dropped her interest in the quagmires that are relationships. However, there's a new wisdom and detachment in evidence here.
1999-05-26 - REVIEW
WHATEVER YOU think about the subject matter of Eleanor McEvoy's breakthrough song, 'A Woman's Heart', melodically it is a pure delight. Listening to her debut album one also hears undeniable evidence of a classically trained, and gifted, composer at work.
