The album was a return to form for the band, coming after their darker albums Panorama and Shake It Up. A number of songs from the album gained significant radio and TV exposure, notably "Drive", played during the 1985 Live Aid concert, and "You Might Think", which had a memorable music video in heavy rotation on MTV in 1984 and 1985. Heartbeat City spawned a total of five Top 40 singles, two of which (the aforementioned "Drive" and "You Might Think") were Top 10 as well.
The cover art is from a 1972 piece by Peter Phillips called "Art-O-Matic Loop di Loop."
