Sound of My Heart is the second English language album by German synthpop band Hubert Kah. It was released in 1989. The album wasn't as successful as the previous album Tensongs however many singles from this album appeared on the US Dance Chart.

Four singles were released from the album, "It's Me, Cathy (Follow My Heart)", "Welcome, Machine Gun", "So Many People" and "Military Drums" which only featured as a bonus track on the Japanese edition.

Shortly after this album, Hubert Kah split up due to lead vocalist Hubert Kemmler suffering from depression and health issues. The next album wouldn't be until 1996 which didn't feature guitarist/keyboardist Markus Löhr or bassist Klaus Hirschburger.
