I'm going to be 76 next week, I can promise you every guy in the country had a crush on the Wilson sisters back when we were all young.
To be fair they're both still gorgeous.
Shit, I still do😂
Still do! And I've just turned 40!
I'm turning 60 and same here !
No doubt still do
Ann Wilson is a damn legend and a GOAT rock singer. This is one of the best female led rock songs of all time. I honestly think she sounds even better with the Philharmonic at age 65.
facts
'barracuda' and 'crazy on you', are two INCREDIBLE songs by them.
not sung by Nancy though
Nancy sang the lead in a very popular song of theirs called These Dreams. As siblings, their voices are similar. That's what makes their harmonies so good. That characteristic is called "blood harmony". Interestingly, Nancy had a cold on the day that These Dreams was recorded. It gave her voice a bit of grit. Some people think that her cold actually made the song a bigger hit. Also, Nancy loved acoustic guitar. If you want a display of how good she actually is on acoustic, try the live performance of Crazy On You. She has a lengthy and amazing solo guitar intro on that one.
There is a video from '77 for Crazy on You that features Nancy on an acoustic guitar where she plays an 'acapella' (if you would) opening that lasts a couple of minutes. Just breathtaking.
This became a #1 song for Ann and Heart. Within a year (+/-...I don't remember which came first...sorry) Nancy sang lead on These Dreams which also became a #1 hit for Heart. Ann's voice is the focus of the band, but Nancy is no slouch. Both play multiple instruments, although Nancy is a one man ..err, woman band. Keyboards, acoustic and electric guitars, mandolin... wouldn't surprise me if she hip-checked Vinny off the throne (the name for a drummer's seat) and took over there for a song or two. Both amazing women...so much so that until I started watching these reactions I never in my wildest dreams considered Heart to by a 'gurl band', just an all-around damn fine band.
Just about to mention These Dreams as well. Instead, I'll just back you up.
Anne’s voice is legendary. Nancy has a great voice as well and is featured on a few of their songs
This is definitely an earlier version of Heart, BUT, you may find that the very best of Heart was even earlier :). Ann’s voice is iconic and Nancy is no slouch either as you heard! Definitely check out Barracuda, Crazy on You and Magic Man. Those are my personal favs!!! 😊
....and "Straight On".... Bebe Le Strange.... City's Burnin'....etc.
this is heart in the 80s early but not really this was at their biggest and most popular their roots go back to the late 60's early 70's
Ann and Nancy are known as the “ First Ladies of Rock and Roll. “ They have been doing this since the 70’s.
I think their song "These Dreams" was their greatest hit. Ann and Nancy were so beautiful.
It's all subjective, but Heart was a hard rock band and as good a song as These Dreams is it isn't definitive of their sound and isn't even sung by their lead singer. It's a good song for sure, but with all their early hard rock classics I can't imagine calling TD their "greatest".
Ann and Nancy were both at peak sexy, sensual, powerhouse, rocking badasses at this point! They absolutely killed it throughout the 70’s and 80’s, and I would put Ann’s voice up against any other rock vocalist, male OR female. She was - IS - a vocal beast, and their harmonizing together is gorgeous here.
Ann Wilson = best ever female voice in rock. IMHO !
Floor as well
It's not opinion it's fact
Nancy is no slouch, and she's a great guitar player too.
Linda Rondstadt too
These ladies are one of the most talented ladies in rock and roll.
Great reaction. Listen to "These Dreams" if you want to hear Nancy on lead vocals. Great song. Also, "Love Alive" awesome guitar by Nancy and of course, Ann's amazing vocals.
Yeah, "These dreams" is my favorite song! But I love "If looks could kill" also.
My favorite lead vocal from Nancy is "Stranded," from the otherwise-subpar Brigade album.
Love Alive is without a doubt my favourite Heart song, and one of my faves of all time. Everything about that song is just perfect to me 😩
These Dreams for sure.
@@sanzoftatooine"Fallen From Grace", a Sammy Hagar penned song, was also very good.
I agree! "These Dreams" was one of Heart's best. Sure brings back a lot of memories from the 1980's.
You might want to check out the early stuff. Crazy on you.. Barracuda.. Magic Man to name a few.Those songs really kick ass❤
Ohh yes they are on the list!
The darker look in their later videos is because Ann struggled with her weight all her life and the video producers wanted to hide it. In their early videos she basically starved herself.
Yeah its sad then way the industry treated her she is a true legend❤️
Yeah, that's were it's at imo. Crazy On You (Live, 1978) gives me chills every time. Whatever else was going on Ann's vocals were insanely good in that, in that time period in general.
For some reason people always recommend the same two videos. Alone and the Zep cover. Video quality is better though, for sure.
Also "Dog And Butterfly" a personal favorite of mine and Ann''s too ... 😉
Both sisters play multiple instruments...Ann plays guitar and flute, Nancy plays guitar, piano and harmonica
I was lucky enough to remember this from back in the day but also to see Ann and Nancy at the Royal Albert Hall nearly 10 years ago with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. Even though my friends and I were seated up in the gods, in the high seats, above the arena, that part leading into the chorus.... even though it was 30 plus years later.... when you hear it, man it goes right through you, to your bones. You cant help but feel it. It still absolutely rips your heart out. Its a staggering vocal, it really is. And when its just Ann's voice.... my god, I've been going to gigs for nearly 50 years and I've never heard anyone like her. This has become such a huge song that means so much to so many people...
To hear another side of Heart , listen to perhaps their most beautiful song - Dog and Butterfly - title track of their 11th album . There is a live version - Live In Seattle - where the harmonies are pure perfection !!
As others have mentioned, "These Dreams" with Nancy on lead vocals is another great one and was their first #1 hit ("Alone" was their 2nd). And although the studio version of "These Dreams" is great, I personally prefer the "These Dreams - Live in Seattle" version that is stripped down to an acoustic guitar level.
The official video of "Barracuda" is a great one as well, which was about ten years before this performance.
I agree. The Live in Seattle version of "These Dreams" is my favorite.
So happy you're listening to more Heart! Barracuda, crazy on you and I'd looks could kill are really good. Nancy is the lead singer for the song These Dreams.
I saw them quite a few times during their concerts in the 1980s. Ann and Nancy Wilson were both knockout babes. I would say Nancy's guitar play in "Sweet Dreams" was sublime. Ann plays background vocals on that song and she was fantastic as well. Watch the video clip. Thanks.
LOL Sweet Dreams The Eurythmics. These Dreams Heart
Heart had basically two careers. The first one was from the mid 70's to the early 80's. They were a fairly big band with several hits during this period and wrote their own music. After a few years were they fell off the charts, they came back with just the two sister's and maybe the drummer for a bit. The record company sexxxed their look up and they no longer wrote their own songs but had professional write them for them. They went from rock and folk type of music to rock and power ballads. And they became bigger than they ever were and one of the biggest rock bands on the planet for about 5 years. From the mid 80's until the early 90's. This song is from that second period. They have an excellent live performance from Seattle. I think in the early 2000's, you might want to check out.
Nancy is an EXCELLENT guitar player but she dosn't play lead. Thats just phoniness the record company did in the video to spice it up. If you look, you see a man playing the lead but then they try to make it look like Nancy is doing it. This is NOT Hearts fault. 100% the record company making them do it and dress like this. In their bio, the sisters explained a lot of this. They are much more hippies than sex pots in real life.
Oh, the Zeppelin performance was more like 20 years after this. Not 40.
I'm so jealous of you that you get to "discover " all these masterpieces and hear them for the first time. Would kill for being able to do that, keep it up! :)
"She's what I think I sound like when I'm singing in the shower." 6:42 That's a really great way to describe Ann Wilson. She sings with such amazing power, as most people notice right away. But she's also an incredible musician who can guide you on an emotional journey. I love this band! If you want more, check out their "Alive in Seattle" concert, the performances are brilliant, and without the MTV/record company overproduction with big hair and corsets.
Nancy takes lead on "These Dreams", it's beautiful. If you want to hear the best male voice in rock, check out Journey, pick any song from their "live in Houston 81 tour".
^^^ This...
Steve Perry is the best singer ...I have that dvd & seeing Perry in his prime is amazing
Heart is amazing. This is actually my favorite song of theirs. I was a kid watching MTV the first time I heard it. Had a crush on them ever since rofl. I also recommend "These Dreams". Ann does some great storytelling in that song.
Heart has such a big and wonderful song catalog. Their most beautiful song, IMO, is “Dog and Butterfly” (Nancy sings harmony on the chorus). I’ve loved it for 45 years, and it still makes me tear up!
Love "The Dog and the Butterfly". Up in the air, they like to fly......
Now you’ve gone and done it! Floor has done a rather nice job of covering this - it’s an absolute must!
Barracuda is a great follow up, as is Crazy on you or All I wanna do is make love to you; all just soooo good!
Great reaction, keep them coming! 🌹
I concur!!!
A MUST! :)
can't forget magic man
Do you know who else did a really good job covering this song? Heart! It’s much better than the original
@@daave365 Yes it was written by Billy Steinberg and Tom Kelly who were known as i-Ten, it didn’t chart for them at all!
Inspired by Led Zeppelin, Heart is the best female fronted rock band in my opinion. Ann’s voice is a powerhouse and you know exactly who it is when you hear her! Great reaction!
Nancy sings lead on These Dreams which is a song from the same era as Alone. However, you also need to go back to their 1970s songs Barracuda, Magic Man and Crazy on You.
Ann Wilson is one of my top three favorite vocalists of all time, period. Her voice is iconic! Nancy Wilson is a legendary guitarist, and her harmonies singing with her sister are sublime. But, Nancy actually sings lead on the song "These Dreams," which is a lighter pop ballad, but one of my favorite Heart songs, along with "Alone." Nancy's vocal style is a bit softer and thinner than her sister's, but still gorgeous. (Fun fact: The day she recorded her vocals, Nancy had come down with a bit of a cold, so her voice was more raspy than usual, which the producers actually loved! When she eventually got better, the producers were actually disappointed that she couldn't replicate the raspy tone, and as a joke, they asked if she could please catch another cold ASAP, haha.) Ann sings harmonies and background "echo phrases" on "These Dreams." (The music video is a bit confusing, because it shows Ann lip-syncing some of the lead vocals, even though Nancy is the only lead singer on the recording. I've never understood why the video does this.)
A few more Heart songs that are essential listens: "Crazy On You," "Barracuda," "Magic Man," "Straight On," "Never," "What About Love," and "All I Wanna Do Is Make Love to You." I'll stop there, but (of course) there are more songs that I can't think of off the top of my head, haha. This was a great reaction, and I just subscribed to your channel. Bravo!
When Ann comes SAILING IN over the instrumentals at that break......DAMN!!!
I say it all the time but some days all you need is a little Ann and Nancy Wilson in your day to make it great. They have a great catalog: Barracuda, Dreamboat Annie, Dreams, Crazy On You you can’t go wrong with any of them. They were a huge part of my childhood in the 80s.
Anne's voice was amazing. Loved everything about here when I was a kid. Her voice still resonates just as well today for me.
They are extremely talented. Used to play in a band with their original drummer, Denny Carmassi. Ann has the voice, Nancy was the backbone. ✌️
I seen them in a tavern in the early 70s Olympia Washington and they played alot of led zeppelin and other covers. Sat in our booth and drank a pitcher of beer during a break. I cherish that memory. They were so friendly and the world was around the corner for them
Thats a cool memory
Seen em live in concert late 80s. Always great.
Yes, more Heart reactions please! Heart is a band with many line up changes over the years. Their first band line up is my favorite. Nancy can sing beautifully as well (but Ann is a vocal powerhouse). On Heart studio albums, Nancy Wilson sings lead on the following songs:
Treat Me Well
Nada One
Raised On You
The Situation
One Word
Love Mistake
These Dreams
There's the Girl
Strangers of the Heart
Stranded
I Want Your World to Turn
Ring Them Bells (shared lead with Ann and Layne Staley)
Will You Be There (In the Morning)
Things
I Need the Rain
Led to One
I'm Fine
Hello Moonglow
There is a young pair of ladies from Northern Ireland called Dea Matrona whose harmonies have had some people call them a modern day Heart. Now, I don't like to make those comparisons but Dea Matrona are influenced by 60s, 70s and 80s rock, both electric and acoustic. While not sisters (although Mollie's sister was in the band as their drummer until last year) they both have great voices and they also both play guitar and bass and often surprise people when they see the ladies swapping instruments in between songs. My recommendations for Dea Matrona songs are Glory Glory or covers Homeward Bound, Helplessly Hoping or Mandinka for acoustic songs. For electric So Damn Dangerous, Get My Mind Off or Red Button. Electric covers I'd recommend are Oh Well, Crossroads, Cradle Rock or Gloria. Just in case you want to check out some current, rising band.
Great choice for a reaction to an original Heart song! Glad you are discovering what an incredibly talented band this was, especially in the early days when they had their original line-up of members. I've seen them live several times, and their concerts were awesome.
One thing I'd like to mention is that when you said "Nancy's guitar solo', it was actually guitarist Howard Leese playing the solo. But the video suggests it was Nancy, so it's easy to see why many people get that wrong.
Nancy herself is an excellent guitarist in her own right, and you can hear an acoustic solo from her on live versions of the song 'Crazy On You'. Thanks for reacting to this song and please continue your Heart journey. You won't regret it!
Thanks for giving props to Howie. He came up with that solo in the studio, I believe he said it was the first bit he did and wanted to play more but Ron Nevision was 'No, we are keeping that one" :)
This isn't an original Heart song
This is also a cover as well. I-Ten is the original. It was also on a TV show Dreams with John Stamos and Valerie Stevenson. Heart changed a few of the lyrics
I love "These Dreams" and Nancy took the lead on this. Heart had about 20 number one singles. These are some of my favorites. What About Love, Barracuda, All I Want To Do Is Make Love To You, Magic Man, Crazy On You.
"Barracuda", "Crazy on you", "love alive" are definitely songs you won't regret listening to.
Ann & Nancy Wilson (Heart) are Rock and Roll Hall of Famers. They excelled both as recording artists and live performers. In fact, they are so great live that they had a greatest hits album derived strictly from live performances. A lot of bands and solo artists do not hold that distinction. I prefer listening to the studio recordings first before the live versions. But in the case of Heart, you definitely cannot go wrong either way.
These dreams is a must, Nancy's voice is amazing 😊
I hope you go down an absolute rabbit hole with this band lol. I did too not too long ago and they’re my favourite rn. SO many amazing songs to look forward to! My personal favourite is Love Alive 💯
The guys were playing the guitar solos - Nancy has some really nice intros on her classical guitar...and she harminazes on most of their songs and takes the lead very occasionally.
Last week I ran sound for Heart by Heart which two of the original founding members (inducted into the Rock and Roll,Hall of Fame) and those guys still crush it! Fun fact… Some of Hearts biggest songs were written and performed by Del Bello a Canadian singer/band. Lots of their original versions of songs that Heart later released are still on TH-cam.
Floor Jansen does this one... Worth reacting to!!
Much Love❤
Hi. I guess you were never aware of them. They were music icons of the 70s and 80s. I think their hit song (These Dreams) was the best. i still listen to it after almost 40 years since it came out.
That was Howard Leese playing lead guitar. The director of this video showed Nancy a lot during the solo, but if you pay close attention you can see she's just hitting power chords. That's not to say she's not an accomplished guitarist. She plays wonderful classic acoustic work, especially during live intros of Crazy On You.
From their Dog and Butterfly album , you Must listen to an absolute hidden masterpiece called Mistral Wind . It tells a story , draws you in, then slowly builds and carries you along with it to an intense crescendo , then leaves you spent . One of the most enchanted songs you will ever hear !!
Right on. Purposely Zeppelinesque. 👈
yes!!!! Mistral Wind is a classic!
Hello Stacey 😃 if you are interested Floor did a cover for her channel 2 or 3 years ago 😁
Yeah most definitely check out Floors cover 😍
Nancy Wilson was one of my very first boyhood crushes when I was young. Heart's videos on MTV back in the day showed me what kind of girlfriend I hoped I would find. 🙂
Neat side note, but Nancy composed the soundtrack to the movie Almost Famous. She was married to the director at the time. There is a really short but beautiful acoustic guitar piece used a couple of times that brings out some emotion.
Anne and Nancy are just legendary in the world of rock music. So thankful for finding them at a young age.
*Edit*
Note to self, I will refrain from making comments until finishing the ENTIRE video. Ooops. I just heard your comment about being curious about Nancy Wilson singing lead vocals on any of Heart's songs. Well I am pleased to say that yes she does. Check out These Dreams
Heart - These Dreams
th-cam.com/video/41P8UxneDJE/w-d-xo.html
you MUST watch : Floor Jansen - Alone !
what!! she did a cover?!?
@@StaceyRPGReactsyep she did
Hello Stacey! I think "Barracuda" (1977) and 'These Dreams' (1985) were the best of the best by this band. Not only were the sisters great, they were drop dead gorgeous as well.
Glad you got into original Heart songs! Ann has a voice like no other in Rock... clear, crisp, precise and powerful! Nancy's guitar picking is so good... very underrated... plus the fact that they are both gorgeous! Ann once humbly stated "You can't push your way into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame... You have to be invited!!! Now, you must check "Crazy On You" live from Saturday Night Live 1977. Let Nancy's guitar intro blow you away! Enjoy! Then, do not forget "Barracuda!"
Nothing original about this one.
Alone originally is by I-Ten, 1983.
Heart however made the song famous with their cover!
@rick , as much as Heart made Alone a huge hit for them it was also a cover , the original was actually I Ten , check it out , kind of interesting. Btw I never knew this until last year lol
My bad! Thanks for pointing that out. I checked it out and can't remember this version. Heart's version will stay my favorite, though. No disrespect to I-Ten.@@wangtang7768
@ Rick , hey I never even knew that and I was graduating high school when it came out by Heart , I never heard of I Ten until someone pointed it out too
Stacey had to scoot her chair back to make room for that big 80s hair!
You should check out "What About Love."
Also, for another great female vocalist, check out The Motels, with Martha Davis singing. ("Only the Lonely," "Suddenly Last Summer")
They made her wear black because they thought she was too heavy. Insane! She was and still is gorgeous!
In this video, you can clearly see that the camera work mainly focuses on the slimmer Nancy, only really looking at Ann's face. I read what you put and it's totally true and very sad. How the media did and still does present people is terrible.
Both the sisters were and still are beautiful.
@@scrappydoo1969I agree but that's how it was back then. Record companies wanted glam and perfect bodies.
If you want to hear Nancy on lead vocals and Ann singing harmony, please check out the video "Mona Lisas and Mad Hatters" live in Seattle. Just lovely!
Heart was definitely one of the top rock bands in the late seventies to early eighties. They were not too happy when management decided to "doll" them all up in the eighties. They hated it so much they fired the management and went back to their normal rock look
Hi Stacey, first like and comment lol. Heart is an awesome classic sister band. You're going to love going down this rabbit hole. I do suggest "Even It Up" "Crazy On You" "Magic Man" "Dreamboat Annie" "All I Wanna Do Is Make Love To You" "Never" "These Dreams" "What About Love" "Barracuda" "Nothin' At All" "Stranded" "There's The Girl" "Who Will You Run To" "Straight On" Have fun!
Having a blast! Thank you for the suggestions!!
Ann & Nancy are at their best live, check out this song & dog & butterfly from their live dvd in Seattle from 2002, the harmonizing is spectacular, no one is better than these two!!!!!!
🇬🇧 Norfolk strapped in the sisters did so well 😊 Floors version a must 😮
Heart is an incredible rock band. As a lifelong rocker and guitar player I love Nancy's kick-ass rockin guitar playing, very high energy. This is what rock is all about
Your first reaction to Heart was a cover and so is your second, this song was first recorded by Hi-Ten a few years before Heart did it, slightly amending a couple of lyrics and melodies !
The best band ever. I saw them in the 70s. Even better live. No big production, just raw talent.
My favorite female rock singer of all time are voice gives me goosebumps up and down my spine. I have a song from them that nobody seems to play on TH-cam and to me it's one of their best songs it's called sing child on the Dreamboat Annie album if you can play that song you will be amazed she even plays the flute in the song I am a new listener and I love your reactions please play the song dear
Hello
Cant believe there are those whove never heard this before. Probably me forgetting how old i am 😂. Yes definitely check out Floor's cover
Heart's version was a cover too...
She is so good, love this song ❤❤❤
I saw them in concert in 1978, awesome.
Your analyzation of the Alone video is spot on. I agree with your breadkdown of the video. The Wilson Sisters are beautiful, and full of energy. They always don't wear black. Watch their other videos, "Nothing At All" and "Never."
Just wait until you watch their 1970's music. It's really good.
great reaction, again ... on the way backwards you should jump to the start now : Magic Man and Crazy on you (1976) followed by their biggest hit of the first phase Barracuda (1977) .... right now you watch them in their comeback phase in the 80s, when they became very commercial and successful, reaching their first nr 1 album and their first nr 1 single, These dreams, lead vocals by Nancy ... isn't that kinda strange ? well Alone was another nr 1 later on 🤘
Nancy sang lead vocals on "These Dreams" and also "Stranded" Two more amazing songs !!
Great reaction, Stacey! You Rock!
Ann and Nancy have stated that this album is their least favorite, but I was lucky to see them when they came back to their hometown of Seattle for this tour and can say that it was awesome and this is my favorite album by them.
Ann has one of the top gold standard gorgeous female voices ever. No exaggeration.
Ann Wilson is my FAVORITE female voice in music. And also Cher Celine Whitney. But ANN!!!!!!!
I think Nancy Wilson's "These Dreams" rank as one of the best songs of 1985. Watch the MTV.
Hey Stacey, Living in the pacific northwest in the 80's, I saw heart several times. (from Seattle area) Ann and Nancy were and still are some great singers.
One other comment, Check out Quarterflash, they are from the Portland, Ore. area. The lead singer plays the sax. Still to this day, she can belt out the tunes
If you want a lead song by Nancy, look no further than their performance of "These Dreams" at their Alive in Seattle (2002) concert. They are singing the song in a lower register / octave than their original recording of this song, something that suits the song even better. I love it, and I love Nancy's performance.
"These Dreams" I think was their best.
Ann is in my top 5 of favorite female vocalists, this is a terrific song!
she is so powerful and a badass!
@@StaceyRPGReacts She certainly is! 🎼🎧
I mean at that time there also were just maybe only Annie Haslam and Grace Slick .. in the 2000s with symphonic metal that has changed of course a lot. Still as a pure rock singer she is still absolute top tier 😍😍
She is also one of the very few singers where Floor can't really make the song better with her cover, like she else did with nearly every other song without problems. The other one where she couldn't do it was Lara Fabian imho.
@@beldin2987 Yup, for sure...my top 5 is pretty diverse though.....Ann Wilson, Margot Chapman, Karen Carpenter, Susanna Hoffs, Louise Mandrell.
Thinking Pat Benatar should be in there somewhere !
Hi Stacey. Another lovely reaction ... for someone who claims to not know about music, you ALWAYS seem to grasp the true gist of the performance. You might like to have a look at Floor Jansen's cover of this. It was one of the solo covers Floor released during COVID lock-down when she couldn't perform publicly.
Nancy can definitely sing. In fact, her lead was their first number one hit. Check out, These Dreams.
Also, Will You be There, and There’s the Girl.
These Dreams is Nancy's vocal. Do it live in Seattle from early or mid 2000's
I saw Heart live 8 times in the 70s and 80s. Alone is from the Bad Animals album. Quite a few people i knew didn't like it because it was a turn from their previous music. I loved it. You should check out "Who Will You Run To? Although there was some pushback the album made it to #2 on Billboard. To me Nancy is the #3 female rock guitarist. Alone is another song that leaves you wondering how does Ann sing like that.
The big hair power band days were definitely the most fan-building time for heart but the earlier days before they could throw huge money at production value were better IMHO. As others have said, try their breakout song "Crazy on You." And note that the early costuming in that sort of medieval princess/ renaissance fair style which you may see them wearing on the early stuff was actually a "thing" in the early 70's which a LOT of bands and musicians played into: a little slice of information which helps explain what you hear and see in many bands of the era.
Yes, they had BIG hair and both Ann and Nancy detested it! They only did it because their record company insisted. Heart is one of those unforgettable groups! In case you were unaware, Nancy is married to Camron Crowe, who made the movie 'Fast Times at Ridgemont High', in which Nancy played a part. She was the woman who drove the corvette and laughed at 'Brad' in his pirate costume.
Thank you for your raction. One of my favorite video of Heart in which Nancy sing is on one of their live shows in their hometown Heart - These Dreams (Live In Seattle) .
Never enough HEART songs.......every album of theirs is amazing.....MORE PLEASE!
Thank you, special lady, for sharing this! God bless you!
Alone is good. But do their glory years! "Barracuda," "Crazy on You," "Magic Man." And, if you'd like to hear Nancy take the vocal lead, try "These Dreams."
Great reaction, and thank you for someone finally acknowledging how beautiful Ann is, i have always thought she was stunning, especially in the 80s, my favorite female singer, i am a bit of a rock chick anyway lol
I am 20 years younger than Ann but i have been told many times in my life when i have been out on the town so to speak that i look like her, with some Elizabeth Taylor thrown in ( weird combo i know ) and i have always took it as a huge compliment, shame i do not have her voice to lol
Definitely check out some more Heart, they are a fantastic band, which i am sure you will love!
I was in high school when this was released. The soundtrack of my youth.
I have seen Heart 5 times. 5 of my 111 concerts. Keep it going Stacey.
Hi Stacey. I love this video, it's soooo '80's...!the decade of the 'power ballads'. I hope to watch you react to many videos from this and other brilliant eras. as your musical journey of discovery evolves. That's me subscribed (I think the one thing which persuaded me to subscribe was you telling us you have two cats) 🙋♂🙋♂
Wow what a nice song love the song guitar solo great Anne amd Nancy ❤ Thanks Stacey
You should do Journey "Feeling that Way" live on the Midnight Special. Old recording technology aside, it will blow you away...
My favourite rock female voice of all time !! Ann Wilson is a beast !!! The song ''If looks could kill'' displays her magnificent voice and emotion. You can feel the anger in her voice and it is awesome !!!!!
