Ann just had one of those one of kind voices you can't even explain. Amazing instrument. And the look on stage. To us back then it was more than you could take in that rock goddess hair, makeup, costume when they were young. Overload. Have you done Abba Dancing Queen. I know we're all about rock, but it could be an interesting review. The octave change they say was just unreasonable, but those girls pulled it off.
If you think those lyrics are steamy listen to “Crazy On You”! “There's nothin' left to do at night But go crazy on you Crazy on you Let me go crazy, crazy on you, oh” 😊
Ann Wilson is one of the few singers who gives me anticipatory goose bumps. It's like my skin knows how amazing what I'm about to listen to is and Heart never fails to deliver.
100%! At first I was just like "let her sing" while she was doing the setup, though admittedly that's completely unfair given the point of this channel. It's almost like once I started thinking about the song I couldn't have been able to even continue on with my day without the catharsis of at least hearing the first verse and chorus. Heart is just so amazing.
The story behind this song is so badass. When Ann was given the lyrics to this song she initially didn’t want to do this track at all. She said “this song sounds like a whiny bitch”. So legendary. Not many bands have been able to last through decade changes in culture and sound. But Heart did it better than everyone. IMO
Ann's belt in this song, is one of the most iconic in the annals of Rock music. Everyone who has heard the song before, waits for it with anticipation. It never gets old.
I was at a Heart show and Ann forgot to do the belt. I was telling my uncle just after,that she forgot that part. Just them she acknowledged that she forgot it and proceeded to do it right then.
I love watching you react. I'm a 50 yr old male that remains quite stoic most of the time. But when I listen to music your facial expressions and excitement is what's going on in my head. Thanks for saying my quiet parts out loud!
I was at a Heart concert. At some point in the middle of the concert they announced that they were going to perform a new song they had been working on for the very first time in public. The song was Alone. And it was electrifying. Chilled me to the bone.
I learned of John Bonhams death when Ann Wilson stopped Hearts show at the SIU Arena in Carbondale, Illinois. She said a few tearful words and then they tore into an amazing, intense set of Led Zepplin that lasted half an hour. It was amazing. 10,000 people with tears in our eyes rocking out as she and the band proved they were truly a great rock band.
Makes it even more beautiful that they then proceeded later to cover Stairway To Heaven in front of the remaining Led Zeppelin members with the only person in the world who can be a somewhat satisfactory replacement on the drums, namely Jason Bonham!
@@BLACKBIRDsqueaks The eponymous album from 1985 was my high school jam - getting to play with them a decade later definitely qualifies as a career highlight!
Please please please, don't EVER loose that (pardon the expression) child-like excitement and enthusiasm about what you do and hear. I know that I sound like a grandparent, but you are adorable with your honest reactions . You don't hide or downplay how something affects you. I do wish that you could travel back in time to see and experience firsthand some of the music and artists that you cover.
Great comment, Wendell ... being 66 years old and having been a life-long music addict (yep, that's not an exaggeration!) and musician, I also hear / see / appreciate Ms. Zharoff's passion. My parents said that that I would weep with joy and hug them when I was 5 years old and the pipe organ started in church, and still weep when good music plays. I doubt Ms. Zharoff will ever lose how music affects her.
Elizabeth's clear expression of what she is feeling is certainly part of what makes this channel very appealing. It totally transports us to a different time when she listens to songs we've always loved.
Nancy's vocals on These Dream are also so, so good. The 'Live in Seattle' version gorgeous. People forget she had to sing all those high harmonies to Ann's already highs! They are both amazing.
So true and one of my favorite 80's Heart songs. Elizabeth, when you decide to listen to 'These Dreams', and you will have to, check out the Live version from Night at Church, from 2010. Nancy is playing a mandolin. The video is from skyMTV.
When she recorded the song, for the album, she was sick adding a crackle to her voice. When going back to sing backing tracks she couldn't do it. They decided to keep the crackled vocal track. There's a RUclips video on it. Pretty interesting.
I know we raised our son on 70s and 80s music, but I didn't realize how successful we were until I was driving him and his friends to an event and Heart came on the radio and I heard five 15/16 yr old boys all scream "Heart! Turn it up!" They are all 21/22 now and regularly go through our records and cassettes.
You provide what is easily the most intelligent, insightful, informed, accessible music analysis available to those of us who are not professional musicians or singers but simply love music. Your solid professional foundation combined with your unfiltered joy while you experience the music make your analysis videos some of the most positive and uplifting content on RUclips. I learn something literally every time I enjoy one of your videos. You are a treasure and a delight.
Isn't she wonderful? I found her when she did an interview with David Draiman from Disturbed and I'm so glad I did. She's so enthusiastic, authentic, and wow she knows her stuff. Best of these genre of videos I've seen.
I think that Ann Wilson has the best female "rock" voice of all time. There's an amazing rich fullness to her voice. It's even apparent when you hear her speak in interviews.
Imo this is about as perfect a song is done. Ann's voice, the way she sings it, the thought and feeling in her voice as she sings it. The music is just awesome and the way it's played like everyone involved just got it in every way! It gives me chills every time since the first time I herd it. Just outstanding!
You wait til you hear it live, for real, in the same room. Especially if its the stripped back acoustic version. I'm telling you, that voice goes right through you to your bones. I've never heard anything like it. I was fortunate enough to see them at the Royal Albert Hall the last time they were in the UK and it was filmed for DVD; Two friends and I were in some pretty high seats up above the arena and when she hit the chorus all we could do was look at each other with our chins on our chests. Bloody amazing. And she was 62 when she did that. Exactly the same look that you give to camera at 9:04 LOLZ..... and. 15:32.... and 23:37... It was exactly like that. And yes, to hear the two of them together acoustically, it just rips your heart out and kicks it around the floor. It really is something. I adore this original recorded version for everything that it is and its one of those songs that has taken on a life of its own and means so much to so many people, its a huge huge track. But hearing that voice, live..... she's bloody magnificent, thats what she is.
100% agree - the live acoustic version from the Live in Seattle videos is sensational. I prefer it to the studio version by a huge margin! You CAN hear them acoustic live doing that amazing harmony. The Live in Seattle concert from 2002 was amazing and the videos are widely available.
Can confirm as the wife and I saw Heart ~2010-ish at SPAC and she blasted those notes right out passed the lawn seats. Side note: her sister was just as energetic on stage too.
Great review, friend. I saw Heart in LA, & they were spectacular. This I also MY favorite Heart song. They are one of my top five favorite bands of all time.😊
I would disagree. I liked the unplugged version of a lot of songs. Kron being the top to enjoy. Don't get me wrong there are bad sounding acoustic attempts. A lot change the feeling of the song and that's not a bad thing. That's, IMHO, what it's supposed to do. Covers are another conversion of a song and you get different feelings from the same song.
Yup..saw them in 2015 and the venue was a theater that holds about 1500-2000 people and holy crap that voice sends chills down your spine. You can hear it on their studio music, but live..just wow.
100%! Was rocking it out on the drive home in peak hour traffic tonight singing at the top of my lungs- when I picked my teens up from school they weren’t impressed - buts that’s just too damn bad… 😉😁♥️
Me too. This is just a masterpiece as Elizabeth says and without question my favourite Heart song. Not only are the vocals absolutely killer (from both Ann and Nancy) but Nancy's guitar solo is just beautiful. It is one of only two rock songs to consistently make me cry every time - the other being my favourite song of all time - "Easter" by Marillion. Please, please can you review Marillion and Steve Hogarth's vocals, Elizabeth.
@joannecunliffe8067 - I'm definitely not taking anything away from Nancy's guitar playing. She's a force, to be sure, but the solo is actually done by Howard Leese, the only other original member still around at this point in their career. Nancy's specialty is intricate rhythm sections that often go unnoticed by the fans, but she has on occasion ripped a fantastic solo. Silver Wheels being a perfect example.
@@ianfortier6796 And that's my mistake - as it *should* be Howard who is recognised for the solo. Obviously there are fabulous Nancy moments like "Crazy on You", "Barracuda" or "Mistral Wind". My bad. Thank you for pointing that out for me. 🥰
Metalhead here. I literally heard this song for the first time in about 30 years while getting a sandwich yesterday, and thought to myself “I loved pretty much everything by Heart back in the 80s, I need more of them in my mix.” And then this today. Ok, universe, I hear you…
The acoustic version with just Ann and Nancy on stage (best is the Alive in Seattle concert) is just as incredible as the studio version. Nancy's acoustic guitar is perfect, and Ann's vocals are even more dynamic than usual.
That one is amazing, but the live version on the Road Home dvd video is insane. This is a different version than the Road Home cd. She just nails this.
I worked at a radio production studio when I got the single CD in the mail of Alone. Literally watching this brings back the same goosebumps I had within seconds of just hearing the clarity of the piano part. I turned it up not expecting it to become so intense. I called others into hear it. Bear in mind, it wasn’t on the radio yet. Too this day, there have only been a few such moments that struck me as recognizing instantly, this is something special. Your dissection and amazement is how I felt as well. When Ann opens her mouth in Alone, you know you’re in the audible world of greatness. Bravissimo
It must have been so amazing, knowing that you are one of the few to hear this song before it took over the world. I can’t imagine anyone would listen to this and not get chills.
Please do a reaction for (or at least check out) Heart's "These Dreams"... Lead vocals are by Nancy instead of Ann and Ann does some interesting things with the background vocals, it was Heart's first #1 hit, (1986) it was written by Bernie Taupin and Martin Page and was originally offered to Stevie Nicks. I'd suggest the studio version or "Live in Seattle" version ❤️
These dreams as a 1980’s staple. Remind my of being I the back of my dad’s car listening to mum singing along. Beautiful and heartbreaking all at once. The Wilson sisters are incredible.
This song is such good therapy. How many times have I sung this at the top of my lungs on the freeway at night with the windows rolled down, the wind whipping through the car, beating on my steering wheel. Growing up listening to Ann and Nancy back when female vocalists were rare was a lifesaver.
Nancy in harmony with Ann, as the rock kicks in, is so sweet. They compliment each other SO well. Having performed together for decades, it’s effortless.❤️
Elizabeth, Heart's performance of Alone has been one of my all time favorites for many years. I love this song because of its lyrics, because of the superb performance of the backing musicians, because of Ann's and Nancy's ability to entertain while singing so beautifully. I just love the song - as an unsophisticated listener and fan. After listening to your analysis of this song (and many other songs) where you highlight so many things that must be done perfectly by a top 1% singer to achieve a great performance has doubled the listening pleasure I now derive from this song (and others) and my admiration for those with the talent and skill to give such stunning performances. Many of the comments you make are truly educational and have resulted in a marked increase in my personal enjoyment and appreciation of fine music. In a word, I can now appreciate more WHY I enjoy certain songs so much. A sincere thank you!
This is an extremely powerful and emotional song. The Wilson sisters more than deliver on every level. The way their voices harmonize together is just top notch. They have another song that's very similar to this 1 you so should do a video on... What about love. You will not regret that 1 either. More phenomenal harmonizing ang guitar playing.❤
If you're interested in hearing Nancy sing lead, try "These Dreams." She is also a great singer. There is the official music video and also more recent live performances.
I was going to say the exact same thing. I'd love to hear her take on Nancy's singing lead after hearing Ann. "These Dreams" is one of my faves from them, but I have so many faves from Heart. I didn't get to see them in the 80s or 90s, but I did finally get to see them on the Alive in Seattle tour, thankfully, and they were amazing, of course!
@@fnjesusfreak She was, and they tried re-recording it after she got better, but the sick version was the one they stuck with because it added an extra layer to her voice on the track
18:00 perfect way to not make a song too repetitive/predictable, they did something unexpected instead of just dropping the chorus exactly where you'd expect it to start. Her beautiful musical shriek is my favourite part of this song. It's in the same pitch range as her sister Nancy singing back up on the chorus, but it's very gutsy and raw because Anne just has more of that.
I didn't realize until recently just how profoundly brilliant this song is in really capturing how love and infatuation (and what fuels its fire) feels like from a female point of view. This song (and the video) is just so powerful.
I saw Ann Wilson a couple of weeks ago live. She still sounds as strong as she did back in the 80’s, and she still rocks out. She did a great show. I’ve loved Heart since Dream Boat Annie and still her new songs are just as good. If you’re a Heart fan, don’t miss her show. You won’t be disappointed. Added bonus, she sang Alone, still my favorite Heart song!
9:44 I don't know if anyone else covered this, but if you're wondering where you've heard this, it might've been It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia Season 7 Episode 6 "The Storm of the Century." At least that's where I know this song from.
You have to, HAVE TO, HAVE TO do... the Heart song "Dog and Butterfly"!!! Do the album version. It's an acoustic guitar song and the sisters' voices are just....... I don't want to spoil it or hype it up, but you're REALLY gonna like it :)
That's really good, yes. It's so simple and yet so gorgeous. Dreamboat Annie is another one like that. Personally I'd rather see a reaction to Never or These Dreams if we're looking at vocals. Never is one of my favorite examples of women rockers. Great vocals, bass, drums, it was all working.
Growing up in the 80s, I really didn't like these nauseous, overdone Pop radio songs. You could never escape them, and they weren't the best songs the band had. Alone and What about Love are not written by the band.
But I will say some power ballads by the Scorpions never get old, still loving you, winds of change, always somewhere… the song no one like you was right between a ballad and a rocker, it's one of the best.
This song was made for a channel like this. It is practically a perfect song and I love how it gets disected and you hear all of the parts that come together like a well oiled machine.
To hear the two of them acoustically live together, their cover of “Battle of Evermore” is amazing! They are at their best singing acoustic together. I’d love to hear you react to Nancy singing lead, on “These Dreams”, for example.
This is my hands down favorite Heart song and one of my favorite songs ever. It’s right up there with my favorite vocal performances ever. Every single time there are multiple parts that make all the hairs on my arms stand straight up. Thank you so much for this one! I feel a bit vindicated that you enjoyed it so much too!
Год назад+7
If Ann‘s and Nancy‘s voices don’t melt you I don’t know what will… I always get very emotional when I hear alone…that’s the best music or a songwriter can do and hope for, evoke real feelings ❤
What I love about this series is twofold: Elizabeth's clear passion and joy in listening to music and dissecting it, and the new life she gives these great older songs by that examination. Thank you Elizabeth!
It's Ann's favorite song, too, from the same album. I vote for Elizabeth to continue her Heart education with "Mistral Wind" (album version), with the Live In Seattle version of "Dog and Butterfly."
If you get a chance to see them live, do it! I've seen them 3 times and they still just crush it. I remember when this song came out and I still get goosebumps. Ann and Nancy are absolutely fantastic. Digging your videos!
Battle of Evermore! Definitely worth a listen. It’s on the Singles soundtrack, I listened to it on repeat, had no idea that the Lovemongers were the Heart sisters until today. Such versatile voices.
Incredible performance of a great song. This was all over the radio and MTV in the summer of 87. My band in college covered a lot of Heart and they were always an inspiration.
I would love to see you review the vocal stylings of another pair of Wilson sisters. The Group Wilson Phillips and especially their song "Hold On". I have never heard such perfect harmonizing as I do in that song.
This is far and away my favorite of Ann's vocals. All of the things you talked about, and just the way they enunciate "I never really cared until I met you!" always kills me. And that BELT. Dear God. It's always nice when you get to hear Nancy on her own, These Dreams is a great one for that, but you have to listen to the long version.
The great thing about this channel is; we know how great the rock music is but don't necessarily know why - we just know it's good. You know why music sounds good but haven't heard all the rock music before. Watching you hear something like this (which we've all heard over 35yrs ago) and seeing your reaction, then explaining for us all why it sounds like it does, is like hearing this song for the first time for us also. Because now, I know why it sounds so damn good. I could talk about Ann and Nancy forever but just leave you with this: if you want to hear Nancy sing lead and Ann backing up, check out These Dreams. US No.1 if I remember...
Minstral Wind from Dog and Butterfly is the Heart master piece. That whole album is the one. I believe Alone" was written by others. I could be wrong. This is a great song and definitely a showpiece for Ann's abilities.
Agreed, and that's not Nancy on BGV. The album version of Mistral Wind has it all. The era of the original love story between the Wilson sisters and the Fisher bros. But the Live In Seattle version of Dog & Butterfly has the wisdom and passion of surviving the breakups and the painful 80s glam era.
I always loved the high harmony "I never really cared until I met you" and find myself trying to sing along, and failing miserably. Its ok I'm usually "alone" (sic) when I do. Gotta love the guitarists' big hair standing out in low light silhouette at the beginning.
I saw them about 10 years ago playing between cheap trick and journey. They blew them all away and I will never forget how great they sounded. It chilled me to the bone!!!!!
These ladies came out way back when it was a male dominated scene , but once they threw their stuff out the world had to recognize that they were and still are the queens !!
The two of them acoustically live together: Battle of Evermore 1995 at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame museum opening. That performance gives me chills. Ann on acoustic guitar. Nancy on mandolin. And Nancy's vocals really shine.
I love how extra Nancy is when playing the guitar in this!! Alone is such a beautifully sung song and also so relatable to me!! And Celina Dion covered this and again sung this beautifully!!
This song was never on a movie soundtrack, but it was featured in several television series, including three different episodes of It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia.
The beginning keyboard sounds like a harpsichord. They may have used a synthesiser to achieve the effect. These two ladies are incredibly talented & imho, Ann is one of the greatest rock vocalists of all time. She can sing anything & her tone is just gorgeous. I’m not a Zeppelin fan but you should check out her rendition of Stairway to Heaven. It’s a tribute concert for the band & her interpretation of the song is just phenomenal!
Also want to throw it out there; if you want to hear Ann at her absolute best, I can't recommend enough the album cut from Dog & Butterfly, "Mistral Wind". Not only is this Heart at their most proggiest, but Ann delivers a masterful performance on the vocals, from her most delicate to her most powerful in the same song.
@@stevenhymowech9931 Don't sleep on the early 80's stuff. There were still some really cool bits here and there on Bebe Le Strange, Private Audition, and Passionworks. It was the S/T that ruined them.
FYI: In addition to her all-time great lead vocal performance, Ann is one of the back-up singers on this track, which is why the harmonies sound so full and strong. She’s a force of nature, to say the least!
The Wilsons, that note she hit in alone......history of how Rock is Defined with Passion. Thank you early Rock, for making feelings so, interesting and relatable.
Heart is such an incredible band. The two sisters are just overflowing with talent and so powerful. The vocals suck you in and the guitar fucking drives. I wish they had gotten even more recognition. These videos are really delightful. Seeing the things that catch your attention, like the difference in sounds between a synth and a grand piano are suddenly intriguing to me and I’m not even sure I can hear what you’re talking about! The unrestrained joy and intrigue really makes these videos interesting and keeps me coming back to watch more. Ps. You might like their song Cry to me if you want a little more acoustic sound. Underrated song in their catalog
Ann and Nancy were both so incredibly talented! Ann has the vocals of an angel for sure! One of my all time favorite female vocalists. You should do Magic Man next.
She still gives me chills even listening to them now . P.S. your reactions are priceless Elizabeth .... I love it ty . So much made my day and made me smile 😊😊😊😊 you rock girl .
Just found your channel and completely enjoyed spending this time with you and the Wilson sisters. You're clearly one of those born to their gift and have shared it generously with the rest of us. Thank you.
You should definitely check out the Wilson sisters performing “Rooster” with Alice In Chains. It’s one of my favorite Alice In Chains songs & Ann Wilson singing on that song takes it to another level. Also Heart performing Stairway To Heaven at the Kennedy Center honors from a few years ago is amazing; definitely check that one out. Robert Plant, Jimmy Page & John Paul Jones of Led Zeppelin were in attendance there & were also honored that night & all three of them were crying during the performance.
Ann's voice is so insanely great it's insane. One of, if not the best female voices in rock; I wouldn't argue if people considered her the best voice in rock male or female or any style of music.

Crazy on you

Absolutely. The single most iconic and impressive female vocalist in my opinion.
Her voice is as good now as it’s ever been- she is incredible!!!❤
Ann's belt in this song, is one of the most iconic in the annals of Rock music. Everyone who has heard the song before, waits for it with anticipation. It never gets old.
Absolutely, As i said in my comment : My favorite of all time & Easily a 20x repeat tune.
Listen to Wait For An Answer from this album. Talk about belts that give chills. I promise.
Every time I hear that song it gives me shivers. Watching your videos is helping me get through a tough time at the moment. Thank you 😊
I was at a Heart show and Ann forgot to do the belt. I was telling my uncle just after,that she forgot that part. Just them she acknowledged that she forgot it and proceeded to do it right then.
It’s like when the drums come in on In The Air Tonight.

@@raymondberg7385 well, that was a tribute song, not the song as they stopped
I did ask for the record for them singing in 1980 :D
Saw Heart playing on the West Coast bar circuit before they released Dreamboat Annie. They could out Zeppelin with their covers even then.
Greatest female rock band ever.
one of the greatest rock bands male or female.
@@timtubemusic Ok piggy 🐷
I played in Ann's solo band in the 90s for about a year - hearing her do this song in rehearsal sent chills down my spine every time
Nice! So cool! 🔥👏👏👏
The acoustic version of this song on The Road Home does that to me!
@@dumpsterfyre278 that's the version we played in my time. I poorly replicated an English horn on soprano sax, lol

I lived it I know it it was amazing❤
I think it can seem somewhat forced
Ann Wilson is one of the greatest female singers ever to exist!
Her voice is therapy...
Ann's vocal chords were kissed by an angel. Perfection.
At that time lol heart was alredy like 15 years old when they did this song
That's some crazy tongue kissing to reach the vocal chords. Oh wait you mean figuratively?
Nancy's vocals on These Dream are also so, so good. The 'Live in Seattle' version gorgeous. People forget she had to sing all those high harmonies to Ann's already highs! They are both amazing.
Nancy certainly does not get the credit she deserves for her vocal contributions.
So true and one of my favorite 80's Heart songs. Elizabeth, when you decide to listen to 'These Dreams', and you will have to, check out the Live version from Night at Church, from 2010. Nancy is playing a mandolin. The video is from skyMTV.

I think that Ann Wilson has the best female "rock" voice of all time. There's an amazing rich fullness to her voice. It's even apparent when you hear her speak in interviews.
Right there at the top of best female and male voices.
That's why i love the beginning of this song. Her voice is so rich.
Nah. Pat Benatar.
@@careful...Icarus almost forgot about Pat. She can still bring it.
I'd have Amy Lee from Evanescence in the top tier also.
Imo this is about as perfect a song is done. Ann's voice, the way she sings it, the thought and feeling in her voice as she sings it. The music is just awesome and the way it's played like everyone involved just got it in every way! It gives me chills every time since the first time I herd it. Just outstanding!
You wait til you hear it live, for real, in the same room. Especially if its the stripped back acoustic version. I'm telling you, that voice goes right through you to your bones. I've never heard anything like it. I was fortunate enough to see them at the Royal Albert Hall the last time they were in the UK and it was filmed for DVD; Two friends and I were in some pretty high seats up above the arena and when she hit the chorus all we could do was look at each other with our chins on our chests. Bloody amazing. And she was 62 when she did that.
Exactly the same look that you give to camera at 9:04 LOLZ..... and. 15:32.... and 23:37... It was exactly like that. And yes, to hear the two of them together acoustically, it just rips your heart out and kicks it around the floor. It really is something.
I adore this original recorded version for everything that it is and its one of those songs that has taken on a life of its own and means so much to so many people, its a huge huge track. But hearing that voice, live..... she's bloody magnificent, thats what she is.
100% agree - the live acoustic version from the Live in Seattle videos is sensational. I prefer it to the studio version by a huge margin! You CAN hear them acoustic live doing that amazing harmony. The Live in Seattle concert from 2002 was amazing and the videos are widely available.
Can confirm as the wife and I saw Heart ~2010-ish at SPAC and she blasted those notes right out passed the lawn seats. Side note: her sister was just as energetic on stage too.
Great review, friend. I saw Heart in LA, & they were spectacular. This I also MY favorite Heart song. They are one of my top five favorite bands of all time.😊
I would disagree. I liked the unplugged version of a lot of songs. Kron being the top to enjoy. Don't get me wrong there are bad sounding acoustic attempts. A lot change the feeling of the song and that's not a bad thing. That's, IMHO, what it's supposed to do. Covers are another conversion of a song and you get different feelings from the same song.
Yup..saw them in 2015 and the venue was a theater that holds about 1500-2000 people and holy crap that voice sends chills down your spine. You can hear it on their studio music, but live..just wow.
Til this day, I will blast this song while driving, and sing/cry simultaneously…it’s the only song that does that to me….and it hurts so good.
This is the most spot on comment I have ever read! The song just pulls emotion out of you naturally.
Yeah. How many of us feel that burn knowing that this is not going to go away? The musical expression of passion & anguish.
100%! Was rocking it out on the drive home in peak hour traffic tonight singing at the top of my lungs- when I picked my teens up from school they weren’t impressed - buts that’s just too damn bad… 😉😁♥️
@@joshuakrause2641 I absoluckingfutely couldn't agree more.
Not ashamed to say this one of my favorite Heart song.
Me too. This is just a masterpiece as Elizabeth says and without question my favourite Heart song. Not only are the vocals absolutely killer (from both Ann and Nancy) but Nancy's guitar solo is just beautiful. It is one of only two rock songs to consistently make me cry every time - the other being my favourite song of all time - "Easter" by Marillion. Please, please can you review Marillion and Steve Hogarth's vocals, Elizabeth.
Not ashamed to admit that I had a crush on Nancy, after this video
Same here
@joannecunliffe8067 - I'm definitely not taking anything away from Nancy's guitar playing. She's a force, to be sure, but the solo is actually done by Howard Leese, the only other original member still around at this point in their career. Nancy's specialty is intricate rhythm sections that often go unnoticed by the fans, but she has on occasion ripped a fantastic solo. Silver Wheels being a perfect example.
@@ianfortier6796 And that's my mistake - as it *should* be Howard who is recognised for the solo. Obviously there are fabulous Nancy moments like "Crazy on You", "Barracuda" or "Mistral Wind". My bad. Thank you for pointing that out for me. 🥰
Ann Wilson is one of the few vocalist that makes you feel her vocals as opposed to just hearing her.
Oh yes. Absobloodylutely.
Yes , but let’s not forget Alanis too!
I went to a Heart concert and Ann sang Alone a cappella. Her voice is phenomenal.
Metalhead here. I literally heard this song for the first time in about 30 years while getting a sandwich yesterday, and thought to myself “I loved pretty much everything by Heart back in the 80s, I need more of them in my mix.” And then this today. Ok, universe, I hear you…
Let's not forget Nancy singing the upper harmony in the refrain 😮❤
I always think the same thing. Nancy would be a phenomenal lead singer for any band, but of course in Heart she is always in the shadow of her sister.
Tom Kelly, the song's coauthor and himself an experienced session singer, provided the high harmony parts on the song.
Or Nancy's guitar chops...
@@Friskee62 her guitar playing has definitely always been underrated
She does more singing in their side band "The Lovemongers".
Saw this video at 14 on mtv and was hooked for life. Slept out for tickets and got second row for this tour. Caught Mark's pick, still have it
The acoustic version with just Ann and Nancy on stage (best is the Alive in Seattle concert) is just as incredible as the studio version. Nancy's acoustic guitar is perfect, and Ann's vocals are even more dynamic than usual.
Agreed!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That one is amazing, but the live version on the Road Home dvd video is insane. This is a different version than the Road Home cd. She just nails this.
The "whoa" before the second chorus on the dvd is bluesy, and smoky....just awesome.
Just posted another comment about that specific Seattle vid before seeing this. 10000% agree. Literal chills
Just heard that version, and loved it!! Thank you!
I worked at a radio production studio when I got the single CD in the mail of Alone.
Literally watching this brings back the same goosebumps I had within seconds of just hearing the clarity of the piano part. I turned it up not expecting it to become so intense.
I called others into hear it. Bear in mind, it wasn’t on the radio yet.
Too this day, there have only been a few such moments that struck me as recognizing instantly, this is something special.
Your dissection and amazement is how I felt as well.
When Ann opens her mouth in Alone, you know you’re in the audible world of greatness.
Bravissimo
It must have been so amazing, knowing that you are one of the few to hear this song before it took over the world. I can’t imagine anyone would listen to this and not get chills.
This was released in arguably the best year for music. I can imagine how awesome to hear all of the songs, especially this one for the first time.
Please do a reaction for (or at least check out) Heart's "These Dreams"... Lead vocals are by Nancy instead of Ann and Ann does some interesting things with the background vocals, it was Heart's first #1 hit, (1986) it was written by Bernie Taupin and Martin Page and was originally offered to Stevie Nicks. I'd suggest the studio version or "Live in Seattle" version ❤️
I second this suggestion!
Seconded
Edit:thirded
Beat me to it! Was gonna suggest this as well. Love this song.
Agreed. The notes she hits at ... every second of the night, amazes me
Definitely!! This is another AMAZING song with Nancy as lead vocals. Heart was one of my first loves.
Ann and Dio are the King and Queen of all vocalists across all genres. I'm glad you finally discovered both of them after all these years.
Heart & RJD are the sounds of my teenage coming of age years. They wiII aIways have a speciaI pIace in my heart. No pun intended. 💯✊️
Wouldn’t it have been awesome to hear those two together? It would be a dream come true
🙌
Agreed
These dreams as a 1980’s staple. Remind my of being I the back of my dad’s car listening to mum singing along. Beautiful and heartbreaking all at once. The Wilson sisters are incredible.
This song is such good therapy. How many times have I sung this at the top of my lungs on the freeway at night with the windows rolled down, the wind whipping through the car, beating on my steering wheel. Growing up listening to Ann and Nancy back when female vocalists were rare was a lifesaver.
Nancy in harmony with Ann, as the rock kicks in, is so sweet. They compliment each other SO well. Having performed together for decades, it’s effortless.❤️
Elizabeth, Heart's performance of Alone has been one of my all time favorites for many years. I love this song because of its lyrics, because of the superb performance of the backing musicians, because of Ann's and Nancy's ability to entertain while singing so beautifully. I just love the song - as an unsophisticated listener and fan. After listening to your analysis of this song (and many other songs) where you highlight so many things that must be done perfectly by a top 1% singer to achieve a great performance has doubled the listening pleasure I now derive from this song (and others) and my admiration for those with the talent and skill to give such stunning performances. Many of the comments you make are truly educational and have resulted in a marked increase in my personal enjoyment and appreciation of fine music. In a word, I can now appreciate more WHY I enjoy certain songs so much. A sincere thank you!
As an 80's kid (Class of 1990), this song was the quintessential slow-dance power ballad for school dances!!
I saw Heart live in 2011 and 2014. Ann Wilson's voice was just as amazing 30 years later! There are no words...
This is an extremely powerful and emotional song. The Wilson sisters more than deliver on every level. The way their voices harmonize together is just top notch. They have another song that's very similar to this 1 you so should do a video on... What about love. You will not regret that 1 either. More phenomenal harmonizing ang guitar playing.❤
If you're interested in hearing Nancy sing lead, try "These Dreams." She is also a great singer. There is the official music video and also more recent live performances.
One of their BEST,,,,👍👍👍💥
Nancy was sick on that recording too.
And to think she was under the weather when singing that...
I was going to say the exact same thing. I'd love to hear her take on Nancy's singing lead after hearing Ann. "These Dreams" is one of my faves from them, but I have so many faves from Heart. I didn't get to see them in the 80s or 90s, but I did finally get to see them on the Alive in Seattle tour, thankfully, and they were amazing, of course!
@@fnjesusfreak She was, and they tried re-recording it after she got better, but the sick version was the one they stuck with because it added an extra layer to her voice on the track
Ann’s voice gives me goosebumps 😊
*Chubby,,,,😳😳😳🤪👍
She’s one of the best voices in rock, male or female
i agree. Wish people would not put her in a FEMALE singer category.
18:00 perfect way to not make a song too repetitive/predictable, they did something unexpected instead of just dropping the chorus exactly where you'd expect it to start.
Her beautiful musical shriek is my favourite part of this song. It's in the same pitch range as her sister Nancy singing back up on the chorus, but it's very gutsy and raw because Anne just has more of that.
Man. I will never ever get enough of Ann Wilson's voice. So pure, and SO powerful.
I love Ann Wilson so much. Truly one of the greatest of all time
Bonus Fact: Alone was actually written by the band i-Ten in 1983 for their album Taking a Cold Look. Heart covered it a few years later in 1987.
Yes, and the original is so much better! 😊
And the Floor Jansen version was awesome
@@TheGesturinn Meh, not really. Very mechanical.
Thanks left a comment about that. But couldn't remember the name of the band. 👍
I love the i-Ten version, too
I didn't realize until recently just how profoundly brilliant this song is in really capturing how love and infatuation (and what fuels its fire) feels like from a female point of view. This song (and the video) is just so powerful.
I saw Ann Wilson a couple of weeks ago live. She still sounds as strong as she did back in the 80’s, and she still rocks out. She did a great show. I’ve loved Heart since Dream Boat Annie and still her new songs are just as good. If you’re a Heart fan, don’t miss her show. You won’t be disappointed. Added bonus, she sang Alone, still my favorite Heart song!
I still dream to see her live. Grew up listening to them as a child of the 80s as my mum loved them! ❤❤ so glad she’s still increíble!
really? i saw a recent performance, and was super disapoinnted to see her skip that high power belt
@@marinahuizar6067 she was strong when I saw her. I think it was right after a break, so maybe that’s the difference
@@michellepelton1448 I never said she wasn't still strong, she's still amazing, she just skips those high belts, lol
9:44 I don't know if anyone else covered this, but if you're wondering where you've heard this, it might've been It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia Season 7 Episode 6 "The Storm of the Century." At least that's where I know this song from.
Thank you very much for that info.
You have to, HAVE TO, HAVE TO do... the Heart song "Dog and Butterfly"!!! Do the album version. It's an acoustic guitar song and the sisters' voices are just....... I don't want to spoil it or hype it up, but you're REALLY gonna like it :)
There is a beautiful live version of dog and butterfly where they are older and both playing guitars.
That's really good, yes. It's so simple and yet so gorgeous. Dreamboat Annie is another one like that. Personally I'd rather see a reaction to Never or These Dreams if we're looking at vocals. Never is one of my favorite examples of women rockers. Great vocals, bass, drums, it was all working.
yep, one of my favorites
The Power Ballad was perfected with this performance. Enjoy!
Yes! This! This song is a master-class in how to do a power ballad.
Growing up in the 80s, I really didn't like these nauseous, overdone Pop radio songs. You could never escape them, and they weren't the best songs the band had. Alone and What about Love are not written by the band.
But I will say some power ballads by the Scorpions never get old, still loving you, winds of change, always somewhere… the song no one like you was right between a ballad and a rocker, it's one of the best.
@@j_freed "What About Love" did have a version recorded by the group who _did_ write it though (as did Alone).
This song was made for a channel like this. It is practically a perfect song and I love how it gets disected and you hear all of the parts that come together like a well oiled machine.
Ann's speaking voice without singing is unbelievable you should hear her interviews her voice and word pronunciation is one you should hear!
To hear the two of them acoustically live together, their cover of “Battle of Evermore” is amazing! They are at their best singing acoustic together. I’d love to hear you react to Nancy singing lead, on “These Dreams”, for example.
This is my hands down favorite Heart song and one of my favorite songs ever. It’s right up there with my favorite vocal performances ever. Every single time there are multiple parts that make all the hairs on my arms stand straight up. Thank you so much for this one! I feel a bit vindicated that you enjoyed it so much too!
If Ann‘s and Nancy‘s voices don’t melt you I don’t know what will… I always get very emotional when I hear alone…that’s the best music or a songwriter can do and hope for, evoke real feelings ❤
As someone who was privileged enough to hear this live, twice in this tour, it never gets old, this many years later.
❤❤❤❤❤
Such a powerful song. Amazing how they're all prancing around with their guitars but there aren't any until the guitar solo!
What I love about this series is twofold: Elizabeth's clear passion and joy in listening to music and dissecting it, and the new life she gives these great older songs by that examination. Thank you Elizabeth!
Agree! Well said!
As a teenager, this song got my attention. Being expertly explained, I appreciate it more. Thank you Elizabeth
Their cover of Battel of Evermore by Led Zeppelin is epic. Heart is one of my top favorite bands of all time.
💯 💯 💯
One of my favorites.
Instantly thought of this when she said “I bet they would sound great in an acoustic setting”. 😊
YES! There are a bunch of live versions from the 90’s.
Nobody does Led Zep covers like Heart. xD If they did a Led Zep covers album, it would be a smash right out of the park and halfway across the city.
To hear them harmonize acoustically try “Dog and Butterfly” from Live in Seattle. Brilliant
That one is my little sister's absolute favorite song by them. Good suggestion!
It's Ann's favorite song, too, from the same album. I vote for Elizabeth to continue her Heart education with "Mistral Wind" (album version), with the Live In Seattle version of "Dog and Butterfly."
I totally agree
I totally agree
@@youbertu Some of their prettiest harmonies too.
I've heard the Wilson sisters in an interview and their voices were just so melodic just in ordinary conversation, it was amazing!
If you get a chance to see them live, do it! I've seen them 3 times and they still just crush it. I remember when this song came out and I still get goosebumps. Ann and Nancy are absolutely fantastic. Digging your videos!
Ann is the GOAT of female rock singers
This song is SO underrated! One of my all time faves!
Ann just tears it down! 🙌
Battle of Evermore! Definitely worth a listen. It’s on the Singles soundtrack, I listened to it on repeat, had no idea that the Lovemongers were the Heart sisters until today. Such versatile voices.
There's a good live version out there as well that I've suggested. I forget which one it is though.
I did
Incredible performance of a great song. This was all over the radio and MTV in the summer of 87. My band in college covered a lot of Heart and they were always an inspiration.
I would love to see you review the vocal stylings of another pair of Wilson sisters. The Group Wilson Phillips and especially their song "Hold On". I have never heard such perfect harmonizing as I do in that song.
This is far and away my favorite of Ann's vocals. All of the things you talked about, and just the way they enunciate "I never really cared until I met you!" always kills me. And that BELT. Dear God.
It's always nice when you get to hear Nancy on her own, These Dreams is a great one for that, but you have to listen to the long version.
Ann's scream after the drums is a masterpiece, and the way she performs live its even more beautiful the way she pronounces the final "ouuu"
The great thing about this channel is; we know how great the rock music is but don't necessarily know why - we just know it's good. You know why music sounds good but haven't heard all the rock music before. Watching you hear something like this (which we've all heard over 35yrs ago) and seeing your reaction, then explaining for us all why it sounds like it does, is like hearing this song for the first time for us also. Because now, I know why it sounds so damn good.
I could talk about Ann and Nancy forever but just leave you with this: if you want to hear Nancy sing lead and Ann backing up, check out These Dreams. US No.1 if I remember...
Minstral Wind from Dog and Butterfly is the Heart master piece. That whole album is the one. I believe Alone" was written by others. I could be wrong. This is a great song and definitely a showpiece for Ann's abilities.
Dream of the Archer is still one of my favs.
100% Agree
yes, Alone is a cover
Agreed, and that's not Nancy on BGV. The album version of Mistral Wind has it all. The era of the original love story between the Wilson sisters and the Fisher bros. But the Live In Seattle version of Dog & Butterfly has the wisdom and passion of surviving the breakups and the painful 80s glam era.
@@roxann_bam Hearing Dream of the Archer followed by Love Alive on the King Biscuit Flour Hour's broadcast of CALJAM 2 changed my life.
i’m so glad I was born in that era so many beautiful songs
I always loved the high harmony "I never really cared until I met you" and find myself trying to sing along, and failing miserably. Its ok I'm usually "alone" (sic) when I do. Gotta love the guitarists' big hair standing out in low light silhouette at the beginning.
I saw them about 10 years ago playing between cheap trick and journey. They blew them all away and I will never forget how great they sounded. It chilled me to the bone!!!!!
Oh, I get it.
That voice. It is so effortless and amazing. These ladies are phenomenal.
My mom would sing heart at the top of her lungs! ❤ she sounded so much like her!
These ladies came out way back when it was a male dominated scene , but once they threw their stuff out the world had to recognize that they were and still are the queens !!
L
Yeah. Whatever….
Heart is one of the bands I've seen live in concert more times than I could count. They really are just that good! They are the real deal!
The harmonies in this one kills me every time, it's so perfect and emotional.
The two of them acoustically live together: Battle of Evermore 1995 at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame museum opening. That performance gives me chills. Ann on acoustic guitar. Nancy on mandolin. And Nancy's vocals really shine.
Was actually there for that. Yay for radio contests!
I love how extra Nancy is when playing the guitar in this!!
Alone is such a beautifully sung song and also so relatable to me!!
And Celina Dion covered this and again sung this beautifully!!
Celine Dion will never ever be close to Ann’s amazing talent.
The high note gives me chills every time!!!!!!!!!!!
Elizabeth, your reactions to the songs of my youth are so enjoyable. I feel as if I were hearing them for the first time again.
YES! So much this!
Both Ann and Nancy Wilson are amazing anybody who says differently does not know or respect their true talent
This song was never on a movie soundtrack, but it was featured in several television series, including three different episodes of It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia.
The beginning keyboard sounds like a harpsichord. They may have used a synthesiser to achieve the effect. These two ladies are incredibly talented & imho, Ann is one of the greatest rock vocalists of all time. She can sing anything & her tone is just gorgeous. I’m not a Zeppelin fan but you should check out her rendition of Stairway to Heaven. It’s a tribute concert for the band & her interpretation of the song is just phenomenal!
Saw this tour and was absolutely levelled by her voice live. I love how she builds some songs up before she really unleashes the top end.
Also want to throw it out there; if you want to hear Ann at her absolute best, I can't recommend enough the album cut from Dog & Butterfly, "Mistral Wind". Not only is this Heart at their most proggiest, but Ann delivers a masterful performance on the vocals, from her most delicate to her most powerful in the same song.
FANTASTIC HAUNTING SONG!!!! The live version on their 1st greatest hits album blew me away
@@1badsteedAgreed! I really like Dog and Butterfly 😊
Exactly: 700s was easily the best Era for Heart
@@stevenhymowech9931 Don't sleep on the early 80's stuff. There were still some really cool bits here and there on Bebe Le Strange, Private Audition, and Passionworks. It was the S/T that ruined them.
@@willowtatus6159 Agreed
You just said you would like to hear them harmonize acoustic. That would be "Dog & Butterfly" from the album with by the same name. Check it out!
Nancy’s high kick is better than any man’s.
A great song that highlights both voices is their cover of "Ring Them Bells" which was a collaboration with Layne Staley of Alice In Chains.
That's where I first heard Layne's voice and was stunned by the quality of his vocals. I am now a huge Alice In Chains/Layne Staley fan.
FYI: In addition to her all-time great lead vocal performance, Ann is one of the back-up singers on this track, which is why the harmonies sound so full and strong. She’s a force of nature, to say the least!
The Wilsons, that note she hit in alone......history of how Rock is Defined with Passion. Thank you early Rock, for making feelings so, interesting and relatable.
i really like These Dreams with Nancy wilson singing and Ann doing chorus its great to compare the voices
One of their BEST,,,,👍👍👍💥
Heart is such an incredible band. The two sisters are just overflowing with talent and so powerful.
The vocals suck you in and the guitar fucking drives.
I wish they had gotten even more recognition.
These videos are really delightful. Seeing the things that catch your attention, like the difference in sounds between a synth and a grand piano are suddenly intriguing to me and I’m not even sure I can hear what you’re talking about! The unrestrained joy and intrigue really makes these videos interesting and keeps me coming back to watch more.
Ps. You might like their song Cry to me if you want a little more acoustic sound. Underrated song in their catalog
Love the analysis, and how much fun you have with these.
Ann and Nancy were both so incredibly talented! Ann has the vocals of an angel for sure! One of my all time favorite female vocalists. You should do Magic Man next.
She still gives me chills even listening to them now .
P.S. your reactions are priceless Elizabeth .... I love it ty . So much made my day and made me smile 😊😊😊😊 you rock girl .
Just found your channel and completely enjoyed spending this time with you and the Wilson sisters. You're clearly one of those born to their gift and have shared it generously with the rest of us. Thank you.
You should definitely check out the Wilson sisters performing “Rooster” with Alice In Chains. It’s one of my favorite Alice In Chains songs & Ann Wilson singing on that song takes it to another level. Also Heart performing Stairway To Heaven at the Kennedy Center honors from a few years ago is amazing; definitely check that one out. Robert Plant, Jimmy Page & John Paul Jones of Led Zeppelin were in attendance there & were also honored that night & all three of them were crying during the performance.
The crazy thing about how good Ann is…her vocal is better and stronger LIVE
Ann Wilson is my favorite female singer. She is amazing. Growing up in 80's Heart was my favorite Band. I got to see them Live. Amazing
Ann's voice is so insanely great it's insane. One of, if not the best female voices in rock; I wouldn't argue if people considered her the best voice in rock male or female or any style of music.
Insane.
💯
