"Every Beat of the Heart" is a song by English new wave band the Railway Children, released as the lead single from their third studio album, Native Place (1990), in February 1990.

Jane Silley of British newspaper Record Mirror noted that "Every Beat of the Heart" is an improvement compared to the Railway Children's previous works.

The video was added to MTV's playlists on the week ending 21 July 1990 and also aired on American music programme Night Tracks starting in mid-August.
