Try with ' Holding out for a hero'... 🤨Try with 'Total eclipse of the heart" 🙄, try with 'I dont wanna miss a thing' (Aerosmith) , try with Bohemian Rapsody...🤦🤦🤦🤦🤔🤔🤔🤔
This woman's vocals have mesmerized me my entire life. I'm 52, became a vocalist because of this woman. I wonder if she understands that her instrument shapes people's lives? By far the greatest rock vocalist of all time. Ann Wilson. Diva.
I hear ya. I was 14 yrs. old, when Magic Man first hit the airwaves. I've been in love ever since. In my opinion, she is, by far, the best vocalist of all time!!!
I Too was inspired by Anne to teach myself how to sing because it was my biggest dream. And She was what made me determined to accomplish that. I feel exactly like you do. She is the Best Female Singer Ever in My opinion.
Again... I will leave the same comment ... how many singers can sound better live then they did on their computer adjusted pre-recorded version? This is Heart! This is the "definition" of professional artist/musician!
Ann Wilson Wow; one of the greatest rock vocalists in history. The depth and purity, what can I say. Thank god I grew up in the 70's, when the greatest rock ever was created and performed.
MAN oh man does this band kick ass. THAT was a performance for the ages. Ann Wilson's vocals just about blow every other female rock singer out of the water!
This is why I keep saying Rock music is the king of genres, hands down. Acts like these gals make your skin crawl. I get goosebumps every time I hear Ann's voice.
Most people thumbs down just to see the comments. I don't believe for a second that anyone would really not like or at least not appreciate this for what it is.
Yes...Anne sounds absolutely AMAZING!, but Damn! - Nancy! What a stunning Musician! Truly a fine guitarist, using such interesting Chord shapes, and nuanced dissonance, and dark colors...plus, she's a Total Goddess!
Another thing I love about Ann. No fear of being vulnerable. She goes for everything, lands most of it, and even when she doesn't, our hearts are bonded with hers.
I actually met Nancy... It was a weird situation... I basically begged the guard to let me back stage but he couldn't. He said he would lose his job if he did. What he agreed to, what he allowed was, he let me go up to the stage.... so, I got to go up there, all the way up there... without getting tackled to the ground ... and I shouted to Nancy and got her attention and I actually handed her a rose and shook her hand. This is something that I will never forget for the rest of my life!
I think I have been able to "loop" this song in musical brain. Lucky enough to have seen them do this masterpiece LIVE in concert about four times, inccluding the 2019 Love Alive tour witnessed in Detroit area. A song and message and music that transforms and transports us to another sphere. Forever grateful for the musical experience and exquisiteness of Mistral Wind.
Holy moly guacamole this is beyond amazing. This song is just amazing and her voice makes it even more amazing. This is one of the best and most underrated performances in rock music imo
So powerful!!! I've seen Heart a couple of times in the late 80's. They blew me away. The following morning I failed an important exam in my sophomore year in college. I told my professor, I had just seen Heart the night before and couldn't focus. He was kind enough to let me take the exam over a few days later. I aced it!!! Even if my professor didn't allow me to retake the test. It would have been worth the fail.
@@annterashita1770 Haha that would've been cool to see him at the concert but I suspected my Professor was more into Classical music. He was a nice man but was wound a little tight if you know what I mean. 😂
This is one of the few bands that can grab you with their lyrics, instruments, and most importantly, their voices and stir something within our kindered souls. Music is a beautiful way to connect with others and Ann & Nancy do it like no other. Love HEART!!!
As a professional musician playing all genres, I am totally enamered by Ann and Nancy Wilson. Their musicianship and knowledge of what it takes to make a song both poingiant and musically interesting is second to none. I enjoy the fact that they like to cover Zepplin songs, because Robert Plant wasn't just a showman, but an integral part of what made that band great. Surely "Heart" will go down in history as one of the best rock bands of all time.
The first time she heard it, my little 3 yr old daughter came into the room where it was playing on the stereo, and stopped . She was TOTALLY still, and when it ended she looked at me & said, "holy shit". I'll never forget that.✌️🤍🎼
How can AUDIO connect with somneone so deeply that its almost a spiritual experience. Im a 55yr old male & this song almost brought tears. So much Power in this song & Ann & Nancy felt it too & ...just an incredible performance.
I"ll be 54 next week. I was 10 when my parents brought home the Heart double album (white, with all the band members lined up on the cover - 1978). I immediately tuned into this song and would listen to it over and over 100 times a day for I can't tell you how many years. I was just learning to play the drums so I would sit there for hours trying to figure out all the weird time signature stuff. Even at that young age it gave me goose bumps and basically brought me to tears. I still react the same way. Trying to describe the feeling is almost impossible. Like, I think in my head when I have it playing through headphones as loud as I can possible stand it, how can anything be any better? It's like an addiction or something, almost like I NEED it. And I always NEED MORE. Lol
Annie has a voice like velvet and Nancy compliments her like a butterfly. Nancy is the strength that supports Annie. Yet Annie supports Nancy also. They are truly thee best at all they do. J.A.M.
i am thrilled to be looking forward to seeing Ann and Nancy in July. I've waited almost 30 years and have chills thinking about this. No women have rocked like this since!
I got to see heart several times but at mile high stadium with the scorpions and rolling Stones they tore it up played second to none that night. Anne Wilson is incredible live, she just has a voice that pulled you onto stage with her. go Anne go Nancy go heart!!!!
Their best song in my book. Saw them several times in the 70's and 80's. Always a great show! Would have loved to hear Zep cover this tune back in the day!
I ignored this song for many years; now, it is one of my favorites. I am a sailor and also tested prototype sailboards for Mistral (shaped by Rick Naish) - so, there is (at least) a double meaning for me.
Love, Inspiration, and Insanity. That is HEART. The heart of Seattle. Best rock and ballad band ever to come out of the Pacific Northwest, maybe out of anywhere. Thank you Ann and Nancy. And also thank those musicians that worked with you in the 1970's. Not to be forgotten!.
yeah this is a wonderful song, one of their best. It took me a while to access it though. I had the greatest hits/live album and listened to it all the time. This song didn't stick out at first. But the more I listened to it, I started to see the power in it. Now it is absolutely essential to listen to. This is probably their best song. Really the dog and butterfly album is really a terrific album. Heart is one of the best bands ever. Their music is so prolific. At times they seem ahead of their time. They are a lot like their idols, led zeppelin. A lot of led zeppelin took me a while too. But then once you see what it is, it is amazing. It's life changing.
I always like Heart, but I saw them for the first time at the Lilith Fair last week. I was BLOWN AWAY; I had no idea how much they would rock my world! I can't wait to see them again. There's no one better than Ann Wilson!
How could anyone watch this and not have chills running down their back???? Ann Wilson is soooooooooo obviously the Queen of Rock. THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER ANN WILSON. We love you always dear Ann!
They performed so well live! The Wilson sisters were the most beautiful of Rock! I seen heart 4 times in concert, once so close I could smell them which caused me to have a raging woody! I am sure its easy to assume my girlfriend loved it when I listened to Heart and I thought about that show! She became Ann and Nancy at the same time, holy cow! Nothing but love ❤️
Just AWESOME!!!!! GREAT, GREAT Song! This is one of my favorite songs of all time! It doesn't get any better than Ann and Nancy!! Nancy you are a spectacular guitarist...... BAD ASS!!!!!!!!!! If you don't like this song then you don't like ROCK!!!!
No 'pitchiness' here! Ann's never sharp or flat. How relaxing. Ahhhhhhh. And Nancy's phrasing is so perfect. The vocals and instrumentals are great AND the song is lovely.
Just a great song-- a rock epic. You feel like you live a whole lifetime going from the beginning to the end. I'd never heard a live version, and I'm surprised it works so well. I always thought of this song as the ultimate "studio track". Ann and Nancy both get to really show off their unique skills here, and the rest of the band plays great backup. Love the ending, starting at 7:22, the way everything just kind of decompresses and fades off. Gorgeous.
Probably their best song, because it is complex, and well constructed. So interesting how hard rock depends on the drums so much, which is a huge part of this song's underlayment of great power. i am no spring chicken, and just found this song via the instructional video from Nancy. They were a great band, clearly the best Girl band to date. Very Zeppelin. Notice the use of Zildjian cymbals, the oldest company located in the USA (originally from Turkey in the 1600's... see the Zildjian website for their amazing history).
The first time I saw a picture of Nancy Wilson must have been in 1976 or 1977 and I promptly fell hopelessly in love with her. All these years later, I have to admit, I'm still hopelessly in love with her.
They were so mean to her when she put on the weight..One record producer said "If she'd lose 50 pounds, we'd be 10 million dollars richer" That huge amazing voice needs that beautiful body to keep blowing our minds. One of the best female vocalists ever...
If I could like this song a thousand times it wouldn't be enough. Ann, Nancy, and the entire band exude so much passion you can't help but be moved by it. To hang out with them it would be the experience of a lifetime.
As an Eastsider who grew up in the 70s like EVERYONE who grew up there we were ENDLESSLY and IMMEASURABLY PROUD OF OUR OWN HEART!! NOT a “Seattle Band” but like Queensryche a band from across the lake! And to this day this song STILL blows me away and is as addictive as crack... THANK YOU FOR SHARING!! 👊🍾🥂
![Heart - Mistral Wind (1995) [Acoustic]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/Jh6IB878gA8/mqdefault.jpg)
Most bands can only dream to write a song as epic as this...seriously.
Annie's vocals here are insane. This is like the Holy Grail of singing.
That’s the truth. If only!
lolllllllllll, true
Try with ' Holding out for a hero'... 🤨Try with 'Total eclipse of the heart" 🙄, try with 'I dont wanna miss a thing' (Aerosmith) , try with Bohemian Rapsody...🤦🤦🤦🤦🤔🤔🤔🤔
@@etnavia8002 I still vote Mistral wind :)
Lucky Seattle audience of 2002 !!! This has to be one of Heart's best live performances, if not, one of rock music's best live performances ever.
I agree...still brings tears to my eyes at age 60.
They're just as great live,goodness❤
This woman's vocals have mesmerized me my entire life. I'm 52, became a vocalist because of this woman. I wonder if she understands that her instrument shapes people's lives? By far the greatest rock vocalist of all time. Ann Wilson. Diva.

Same ❤
I Too was inspired by Anne to teach myself how to sing because it was my biggest dream. And She was what made me determined to accomplish that. I feel exactly like you do. She is the Best Female Singer Ever in My opinion.
One of the greatest and most overlooked songs in the rock era, period.
Yes dear yes.😭
Absolutely
Literally, this is my favourite Hear songs
I have loved this song since the first time I heard it.
Not overlooked by me
The female artists of today need to learn from these two.
Loved Heart since I was a wee lad back in the day. Best ever!
Female and male, I would say. Artistry of this magnitude is embraceable by an gender ...
I agree
So true
Check out Larkin Poe.
If you dislike this, you need to get your head examined. It's probably the best song they ever recorded. It's beautiful.
I agree it is a beautiful song
yep
there is no reason for dislike lo its heart man
My favorite, of many, from Heart.
this is so intense and overlooked
For a man who has always loved to sail these words are so poetic and moving. No woman on Earth could sing this any better.
my god, Ann is an angel who came down from heaven to sing for simple mortals
Aretha is the Queen of Soul and Ann Wilson is the Queen of Rock.
Yes
Amen Amen 🙌🙏
Yes
Ann and Nancy Wilson: the Goddesses of Rock!
Amen
The Magical Majestic voice of Ann Wilson !!... she is one of a kind !!. One of my fav songs from them ( and there are many! )
So true. My teenage obsession.
for my money the most amazing heart song ever.
Mark Cox I'd second
Agree 100%. Second only to 100 other Heart songs and messages of the love, anger, confusion that defines the human soul.
Yes! I love you!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Facts
Hard to argue that. In a league of its own.
The so called women singers / performers of today aren't even worthy of standing in Ann or Nancy's shadow.
Word!
I'll second that! BUT, let's not forget Joan Jett too. She got it goin on too!
barb balaska
Ann Wilson she is NOT!!!!! Sorry not even close!!! Ann is the QUEEN....
They are out there but Ann is the Queen of them all.
Absolutely!
Again... I will leave the same comment ... how many singers can sound better live then they did on their computer adjusted pre-recorded version? This is Heart! This is the "definition" of professional artist/musician!
My favorite Heart song period. God. This is just mystical.😭❤
Ann Wilson Wow; one of the greatest rock vocalists in history. The depth and purity, what can I say. Thank god I grew up in the 70's, when the greatest rock ever was created and performed.
never better.
Someday before I die, I'll hit the lottery and have them perform this set for me in private. It is a dream that this retired Marine has...
I really hope ur dream comes true!!! That would be magical!!!
They can make a grown man cry.
I hear ya. Saw them in Newark NJ this summer. She evokes emotion..It's a rare gift.
I love you, Yes!😭😘❤
Wow ...you just saw me doing that?
MAN oh man does this band kick ass. THAT was a performance for the ages. Ann Wilson's vocals just about blow every other female rock singer out of the water!
Fact.
This is why I keep saying Rock music is the king of genres, hands down. Acts like these gals make your skin crawl. I get goosebumps every time I hear Ann's voice.
Love the video with this song. Awesome!!!!
Most people thumbs down just to see the comments. I don't believe for a second that anyone would really not like or at least not appreciate this for what it is.
Can honestly say I have NEVER heard Ann sound bad..
Freaking. EPIC.
Ann Wilson is a force of nature, and one of the greatest rock singers ever to hold a mic.
Love the slow, dramatic rhythm of this masterpiece. One of Heart's finest.
now that's a VOICE!!!!!
Like she does rain song omg, she's fantast❤
Yes...Anne sounds absolutely AMAZING!, but Damn! - Nancy! What a stunning Musician! Truly a fine guitarist, using such interesting Chord shapes, and nuanced dissonance, and dark colors...plus, she's a Total Goddess!
Ann's voice here is beyond belief. Amazing!
Lucky for us, hearing IS believing. Best Heart song ever, which is saying a lot.
Another thing I love about Ann. No fear of being vulnerable. She goes for everything, lands most of it, and even when she doesn't, our hearts are bonded with hers.
She really puts every single ounce of herself into her singing. She's singing from her soul. I love Ann.
+Manda Hilger they overcame some adversity and remained good
charles berndt Oh, I know. I've been listening to them for all of my 32 years. :)
Glad you enjoy for sure but.... us old men live in past lol I got you by 20 maybe lol still good.
+Manda Hilger you have discerning taste.
+charles berndt Age doesn't matter. I prefer music before my time, which I was raised on.
I actually met Nancy... It was a weird situation... I basically begged the guard to let me back stage but he couldn't. He said he would lose his job if he did. What he agreed to, what he allowed was, he let me go up to the stage.... so, I got to go up there, all the way up there... without getting tackled to the ground ... and I shouted to Nancy and got her attention and I actually handed her a rose and shook her hand. This is something that I will never forget for the rest of my life!
My bro and I met her walking on the beach. We didn't bug her, just a howdy and keep rockin!
Excellent version of Mistral Wind. This song must always be played loud.
Ann's voice is unmistakable!
I can listen to this over and over
I am listening to this over and over! lol
I think I have been able to "loop" this song in musical brain. Lucky enough to have seen them do this masterpiece LIVE in concert about four times, inccluding the 2019 Love Alive tour witnessed in Detroit area. A song and message and music that transforms and transports us to another sphere. Forever grateful for the musical experience and exquisiteness of Mistral Wind.
Me too, I can't stop
This song is so interesting. Soft then intense and rocking, great chord changes , well crafted , great arrangement
Tommy Haynes not to mention the lyrics and vocals that accompany it. Not many songs are the full package like this, my favorite song hands down.
It's called "the 70's"--a great era of rock!
This is the exact kind of music I'm trying to write. Nancy is my hero
@@FvckTH-camCensorship Same. I got a strange intro going on a low-tuned acoustic.
All hail to The Queens of Rock!
+Michael Hodges join my group ALL HAIL THE EFFIN QUEEN!
If aliens said 'show me to the most powerful human on earth', i would bring them to Ann
I love the way you said it and can't say it better.
Heart's epic masterpiece!
I absolutely agree! I love all their songs but this is definitely an EPIC masterpiece. This is Heart's "Stairway to Heaven"
A Fultez
No doubt the best song they did- romantic, personal and musically superior!!!!
Yes baby yes!!!! I love you.😘
I came back to listen because this song kicks ass!❤❤❤
Ann Wilson has the most beautiful voice in Rock. I just love her.
One of my favorite songs from one of my favorite albums! Awesome and thanks Heart...:)
Holy moly guacamole this is beyond amazing. This song is just amazing and her voice makes it even more amazing. This is one of the best and most underrated performances in rock music imo
Not underrated by anyone.
Who was ever in that audience to see this concert....you are blessed people.
So powerful!!! I've seen Heart a couple of times in the late 80's. They blew me away.
The following morning I failed an important exam in my sophomore year in college.

Rock On !! :-)
@@annterashita1770 Haha that would've been cool to see him at the concert but I suspected my Professor was more into Classical music. He was a nice man but was wound a little tight if you know what I mean. 😂
Don't get me wrong Heart has many many awesome tracks..but every time I hear this one, I'm like this one has got to be their best.
Mistral Wind live in Seattle 2002. One of Ann’s great vocal performances.
My favorite Heart song (of many), my favorite version :)
That whole side of D&B is my favorite Heart song!!
They always loved Led Zeppelin and wanted to be like them. This song definitely has the sound!
U saw the tribute they did right??? INCREDIBLE STUFF.
This is one of the few bands that can grab you with their lyrics, instruments, and most importantly, their voices and stir something within our kindered souls. Music is a beautiful way to connect with others and Ann & Nancy do it like no other. Love HEART!!!
As a professional musician playing all genres, I am totally enamered by Ann and Nancy Wilson. Their musicianship and knowledge of what it takes to make a song both poingiant and musically interesting is second to none. I enjoy the fact that they like to cover Zepplin songs, because Robert Plant wasn't just a showman, but an integral part of what made that band great. Surely "Heart" will go down in history as one of the best rock bands of all time.
Nothing short of Epic! Absolutely love this song from Heart! Ann has such a killer voice and angelic vibes. Nancy you are the guitar goddess...
This song is so awesome to see live, seen Heart 8 times!!! Best band ever
Michele Westfall jealous
The first time she heard it, my little 3 yr old daughter came into the room where it was playing on the stereo, and stopped . She was TOTALLY still, and when it ended she looked at me & said, "holy shit".
I'll never forget that.✌️🤍🎼

I can't listen to it without crying every last time even if I just listened to it
I feel so sorry for the 72 people who gave the thumbs down. You know nothing.
Total Idiots... You Are SO RIGHT.. They Know Nothing...
You can delete that.

Still cranking this in 2024
Goosebumps every time❤
I've seen, and heard thousands of musical performances, and records in my lifetime. This one is easily in the Top 5. Without question.
Annie has a voice like velvet and Nancy compliments her like a butterfly. Nancy is the strength that supports Annie. Yet Annie supports Nancy also. They are truly thee best at all they do. J.A.M.

Long Live Heart Rockers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just AWESOME!!!!! GREAT, GREAT Song! This is one of my favorite songs of all time! It doesn't get any better than Ann and Nancy!! Nancy you are a spectacular guitarist...... BAD ASS!!!!!!!!!! If you don't like this song then you don't like ROCK!!!!
It can’t get any better than that!! Perfection!!
My favorite HEART song. So beautiful 🏆🔥
I can't get enough of HEART!! This song is out of this world!! Dam, her vocals and the mystery of mistrial wind!!!❤❤❤❤❤
Man, nobody can belt a song like Ann. So much power in that voice.
Thanks for sharing. 🙂
So sweet and mind blowing
No 'pitchiness' here! Ann's never sharp or flat. How relaxing. Ahhhhhhh. And Nancy's phrasing is so perfect. The vocals and instrumentals are great AND the song is lovely.
It doesn't get much better than this!
This tune is in the top 3 of my all-time favorite Heart songs. Love the vocals and drums. Cool to see a performance in front of their home crowd.
Driving down 39th expressway in my firebird with heart on the radio....life was good✌️❤️
that awesome pause to the rift at 6:28 takes the breath away
Agreed. Nice call!
This is why Ann Wilson is a legend.
Hell, it just made me cry.
One of the best rock songs ever. Also, if you see me in my car doing what the guy at 4:17 is, you'll know what I'm listening to.
Best band I have ever seen. In 50 years
Just a great song-- a rock epic. You feel like you live a whole lifetime going from the beginning to the end. I'd never heard a live version, and I'm surprised it works so well.

They were so mean to her when she put on the weight..One record producer said "If she'd lose 50 pounds, we'd be 10 million dollars richer" That huge amazing voice needs that beautiful body to keep blowing our minds. One of the best female vocalists ever...
One of their best for sure!!! Seven concerts I have had the honor to attend!!!! My all-time faves!!!! Always will be!!!
If I could like this song a thousand times it wouldn't be enough. Ann, Nancy, and the entire band exude so much passion you can't help but be moved by it. To hang out with them it would be the experience of a lifetime.
THE greatest song in their catalog, from my fave heart album.
Gives me chills. All hail Ann Wilson!!
Ann Wilson, you have got the voice so many wish they had. Awesome.
As an Eastsider who grew up in the 70s like EVERYONE who grew up there we were ENDLESSLY and IMMEASURABLY PROUD OF OUR OWN HEART!! NOT a “Seattle Band” but like Queensryche a band from across the lake!
And to this day this song STILL blows me away and is as addictive as crack...
