I don't think Nancy gets enough credit and recognition for her backups in this song. While Ann's voice is exceptional, Nancy is hitting those high harmonies behind her. Heart is phenomenal. I feel like the great bands disappeared in the early 90s. They don't have music like this anymore.
I have always preferred Nancys vocal style over Anns. I find them to be somewhat softer, and I think Anns sometimes can be a bit over the top. She is a great singer without a doubt, but Nancy just speaks to me more musically.
@@caphowdy666 Alone is one of my least favorite Ann vocals. "Over the top" describes it nicely, as were many of her mid-80's leads. I always sought out Nancy's leads for a nice change of pace from all the bombast.
@@pokerface8242 Thank you. Teally nice to hear someone agree. I always preferred These dreams over Alone as far as ballads go, and that is because Nancy took lead on that. I don't wanna sound like I don't like or appreciate Anns vocals, just sometimes I just wish she would dial it back. Wild child from Brigade is one of the best examples of how over the top she can get. I thought it was an ok song but some of the vocal delivery just made me cringe, especially the random "uh oh" for no reason. When I finally heard the original by Romeos Daughter, the song sounded so much better.
I sometimes think that as well, all the good bands disappeared in the early 90's. I don't know if they did but I do remember grunge being the next big thing back then. And most of my favourite bands changed musical direction as well. Maybe it was a decline in musical quality. I know for certain I began losing interest and wasn't as enamoured by it all.
Lol late 80s beginning of 90s a ton of great bands stood up. To name just a few: Metallica, pearl jam, nirvana, simple minds. Nevertheless I like all 70-80s stuff as well.
Now you should listen to "These Dreams" Nancy is on lead vocals and Ann sings back-up, another masterpiece, and it shows Nancy has an awesome voice too! GREAT REACTION!!!!!!
Nancy is criminally underrated!! Both as a musician and a singer....those high notes in the harmony?!?! Insane!! And Ann's belts are just legendary!!! These ladies are rock godesses!!
You’re right. One of the best singers, _period!_ Of course we were in love with the sisters back in the day but it was impossible to miss that they were kick-ass rockers fronting a very talented band.
Heart is my all-time favorite band, and this is my favorite song of theirs. And yes, I had a crush on Ann Wilson. You're right, the title of "best" has no gender. And they were just as good in concert, no studio or post-production tricks needed.
they sold talent, not sex. the sexual appeal was an afterthought. young women could learn allot from them, if they would just pay attention. if they were just selling sex, they would have no ability to draw a crowd at 70 and would be forgotten about. they arent, they are still touring.
I have a feeling you'll love "These Dreams", "All I Wanna Do (Is Make Love to You)" and "Barracuda". Anne's voice is truly a singular force of nature. She can go from a hurticane, to a soft breeze. She's equal parts sledgehammer and scalpel.
The amazing Wilson Sisters at their 80s zenith, they had an MTV period where they had one huge video after another. For a real banger from a few years after this, try Black on Black 2 which harkens back to Barracuda and is a flat out rocker. They could do soft or loud in equal measure, amongst the best. Enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎹🎶
I've been listening this song since its release in 1987. The build up between Ann's singing, Nancy's piano, and the release into the guitars still gives me goosebumps. "Alone" is an awesome song.
It was her rendition of this song that solidified Carrie Underwood's win on American Idol. And the rest is history. One of the most challenging female vocals ever, and Ann does it so effortlessly.
If you want to hear Nancy sing lead check out "These Dreams". As the story goes she had a cold and didn't like the take, even though everyone else did. She tried again when she felt better, they decided to go with the original take. In case you didn't notice Ann doesn't any full on shots in this video. She had gained a lot of weight and the big shots kept her up on the balcony, shot from a distance because she didn't fit the image management wanted.
How do first time watching I think you're a sweetheart dear. Ann Wilson is the best rock singer of all time bar none her voice send shivers up and down my spine. Keep up the good work love watching you a really sweet
Two parts of your reaction to this song I absolutely love and knew you would do. The first was when you said that Ann Wilson has one of the best voices (in rock) and not "just the best female voice"; nothing could be truer and it is something I have thought for a long, looooonnnnngggg time. The power of her voice (and Nancy's as well) is incredible and rarely matched by anyone. I could listen to her quite literally all day. I actually had the chance to see her back in June from the third row of a small theatre in Toronto and, at 73, she can still hit those notes and send chills down my spine. The second thing I loved about your reaction and I knew I could count on YOU for this was when Ann hit the note in the middle of the song. Your reaction matched my own and I've listened to the song (and video) what must be hundreds of times now because I love that note (and the whole video) so much. I've been known to replay that one note over and over because I appreciate it so much. Sure it's a small obsession but you can't really blame me as there are far worse things to be obsessed about. The Wison sisters (and their band(s)) are truly treasures in the musical landscape and I simply could not do without them in my life. So grateful!! If you want to hear another female artist with an incredible sonic ability, I direct you to a good Canadian woman named Lee Aaron. You can still with "Hands On" which is a fun rock and roll song with a sonic hit you'll appreciate somewhere in the middle (🤪). Here is the RUclips page: ruclips.net/video/4TthIb_QaoM/видео.html I appreciate your reactions and always find them fun to watch. Keep up the great work!! ❤❤ Ooooh!!! That last line you gave was completely quotable: "Your favoutie Heart song is the one you heard last." I like that so very much, I hope you don't mind if I use it. I will, of course, always give you credit. TeeHee
Ann said in an interview recently that she would leave nothing in reserve while performing and recording. She was particular about “Alone.” It was the best example of commitment to her work. She also enjoyed playing up the Diva side of herself in the song. Two sisters, who are highly respected pro’s for 40 plus yrs. Amazing 👈🤘
To answer your question, yes, that was Nancy Wilson riding a horse (briefly). Ann & Nancy Wilson have been long-time horse lovers, as they have raised horses and dogs as well. Glad you're loving this band.
Ann Willson's voice is not only legendary, it is simply ICONIC. And yet, this is one of the few songs (especially the acoustic version) where Nancy's backup vocals SHINES to both enhance AND counter Ann's voice. The sisters (Ann and Nancy) simply have the best harmonies in any female led rock group, but the fact that their harmonies are COUNTERS (high/low) pitch perfect is completely amazing.
As noted earlier the high singing back-up work is done by Anns' sister Nancy. I have always loved watching Nancy literally "Man Handle" her guitar! Such a showman, er, show-woman! In fact, when they introduced "Guitar Hero for girls" back in the day, they used Nancy Wilsons moves as the avatar!
Ann-Freaking-Wilson! I would love for you to also give early Linda Ronstadt some listens! The two greatest rock female voices as far as pure tone and power!
These Dreams - Nancy on lead vocals. Forever the greatest female rockers! In the world of YT Reactors…Nancy never get’s the props she deserves. Nancy is equally amazing; can outplay any male guitarist; equal power-vocalist. You must see them live…check put Crazy on You/These Dreams from their Rock Hall Induction.
I love that you appreciate the talent of these two sisters. They set a bar and stand alone in their legend. Thank you for discovering them and appreciating them.
Ann Wilson has an outstanding voice and her sister Nancy, who sings a lot of the harmonies you just did has an outstanding voice herself. Plus shes an amazing acoustic guitar player with a whole lotta sass!!! 💕💕
I really enjoy your reactions, Aileen, and this was no exception! Heart is truly great and while there is no rush to get to these two songs please put them on your list to get to one day: A live version of "Dog and Butterfly" and their cover of the Led Zeppelin song "Battle of Evermore"! You will never regret reacting to those ones!! Have a great day,
Somewhat surprisingly, their first #1 hit, "These Dreams," has guitarist Nancy Wilson on lead vocals. A much softer, but still beautiful, voice. And as nice as the studio-version is, my personal favorite is their acoustic version: "These Dreams (Live in Seattle)" from 2002.
Heart is a fascinating band for so many reasons. But one of them is that they have had at least two distinct phases when they were practically two different bands. First they were a classic '70s rock band with some folk and Led Zeppelin influences. Then in the '80s they either chose or were somewhat pressured into becoming more of a big hair / power ballads band with more pop / synth flavored songs. Looking back, we can appreciate their mastery of both types of music. But at the time, the change was a bit divisive. There were tons of Heart fans in the '80s who had no clue about their earlier work. And there were older fans who felt their '80s style wasn't true to who Ann and Nancy were. And the fact that in '90s and '00s they drifted back a bit towards are more stripped-down, non-grandiose style does seem to suggest that their '80s period wasn't totally in sync with their true feelings and art. But their talent makes whatever they do work, no matter what.
Ann Wilson is amazing! She sings with such power and emotion; it's beautiful. You'd love her cover of "Beware of Darkness." I would highly recommend it. Great reaction, young lady. 👍👍
I grew up listening to heart. Love love them. She is my favorite female singer. I'm so glad you are listening to what I got to hear when they first come out. Thanks for enjoying them.
There are so many great heart songs, and I think this is their best! You mentioned a ballad, so check out "These Dreams". Also, other songs, "Never", "Barracuda", "What About Love", "Magic Man", and "Nothin' At All"
My number one favorite from all their songs... But have to tell you what was so powerful is when Lita Ford and Ozzy did an amazing duet... "Close My Eyes Forever". You'll love it!
Thanks Aileen, great reaction. I'd really recommend you react to this song but from their 2003 live in Seattle concert. It's stripped back with acoustic backing from Nancy only so really lays bare how good Anne's vocals are.
Great reaction and loved that you checked this out. You should really check out them do this live in Seattle. Acoustic, just her and a guitar. It’s so good! She has such an amazing voice.
The song "These Dreams" has Nancy singing lead and was one of their biggest songs . The song was first offered to Stevie Nicks but she had enough songs already for the album she was recording. Nancy had a bit of a cold when she did the vocals and it added just a tinge of grit to her voice. I always felt more drawn to Nancy since I also play guitar.....although she is much better than me. Ann can also play guitar, and both ladies play piano.
what most people dont know is that heart didnt originally write this song , they bought it from a studio band, but they DEFINATELY made it theirs , ann wilson's name is ALL over the title of this song ;)
This was the first heart song I ever heard, back in the 80s, and I was hooked, thankfully got to see them in concert months ago, right before they had to cancel the tour..so grateful to have been able to see them, and they were phenomenal live.
Wonderful reaction. Heart puts so much energy into their songs it is like they devote all their heart into every performance. You articulate your feelings and thoughts so magnificently. This is why you are my favorite Reactor. I would love to see your reaction to Elvis Presley's "If I Can Dream". If you have. Reacted to this one i apologize for requesting it, but I have not found it.
Love me some Heart This is a fantastic song. Anne is incredible. Nancy is also very good, and definitely having fun on guitar. So much energy from both of them. Check out "These Dreams" from 1985 another hit of theirs but Nancy sang lead on that one.
I remember this song used to get a LOT of play on the dedication line on the radio, plenty of times from the "secret admirer". Was probably rivaled only by Right Here Waiting by Richard Marx for sheer number of requests. A lot of people don't realize this song is actually a cover of a song by i-Ten, but Heart took it to new heights. Stratospheric
"I've got to remember to breath when I listen to Heart" - Well, here are a few more Heart recommendations to help you with your breathing exercises: "Barracuda" "Magic Man" "Love Alive" "Nada One" "Sing Child" "Heartless" "Without You" (Badfinger cover) "Cry to Me" "Say Hello" "Straight On" "Dog & Butterfly" "Mistral Wind"
Heart... Ann & Nancy Wilson! I could listen to their playlist over and over and never get tired of the music! These ladies have been Rockin from day one and are now Legends in the Rock World! Your reaction is awesome and they do take your breath away! Hope you listen to more Heart! Luv ya Aileen ❤️💛
You should check out their performance of These Dreams live in Seattle. One of the best live performances I have ever seen. Ann is an amazing singer but Nancy has an amazing voice as well and she really shines in this performance.
The 80’s perfected the Power Ballad! This is a perfect example of that. The beginning is calm, quiet and melancholy then the power part of the ballad kicks you in the face!
Heart rocked it out in the 80's! Ann Wilson did a solo song BEST MAN IN THE WORLD which is amazing, It was for the 80's Eddie Murphy movie The Golden Child.
Great reaction - thanks for saying about not needing a separate category for female singers, it does bug me when people pretend they are two separate boxes. Other Heart songs I'd suggest would be _Barracuda_ and _These_ _Dreams,_ both excellent. Enjoy!
I grew up in the 70's and listened to Heart, Zeppelin, tull, journey, and so many great Rockers. The golden age of Rock. Nice seeing young people now enjoying this iconic music.
I remember when this song debuted on MTV in May of 1987. I loved it of course, but was so spoiled on all the great music at that time, it didn't even phase me how great it was. Love watching the young Gens tripping out on it. I kind of saw that rewind coming on the break. lol. Yep, gotta hear that again!
Ann Wilson is a rock goddess. And I can’t help but laugh silently at the band’s antics, so 80s hair metal-ish and rock musicians were so over the top back in those days. And now after a long while of grunge and post punk and nu metal we all started to miss the 80s for real. Variation is the shite.
A golden set of vocal cords is right...they don't come around all that often and when they do...they're even better when set to the right music. It's when the best comes together to be great...
I've been in love with Ann Wilson since I was a little kid, and my older brother introduced me to them. I've never not been in love with her to this day. Her voice alone at times almost stuns my soul. What an amazing woman.
Thank you, I love it!!! It just makes my heart happy to see the younger generation appreciate brilliance! The three most drop-dead gorgeous women on the planet are Ann Wilson of heart, Stevie Nicks of Fleetwood Mac, and Amy Lee of Evanescence! Their sheer beauty is only topped by their vocal abilities! You should react to some Evanescence.
These ladies are amazing in person. I saw them in 81 in Orlando at the Citrus Bowl stadium, along with Cheap Trick and Blue Oyster Cult. Definitely one of the best concerts of my life.
There are a lot of music judges (Simon Cowell being the most famous) that remind and advise singers what songs and artists to stay clear of, with Anne, Celine and Whitney being the top 3. Carrie Underwood's cover is pretty good but let's be honest, this is Anne's song and always will be. Love the reaction!!
Hands down best female duo of all time
I don't think Nancy gets enough credit and recognition for her backups in this song. While Ann's voice is exceptional, Nancy is hitting those high harmonies behind her. Heart is phenomenal. I feel like the great bands disappeared in the early 90s. They don't have music like this anymore.

Ann Wilson has one of the purest and most powerful voices ever captured! Great reaction as always, Aileen! ❤🔥
the cover from this cover from floor jansen is so much better
Greatest female rock singer of all time.
@@jzundert it's ok but no it's not better.
Now you should listen to "These Dreams" Nancy is on lead vocals and Ann sings back-up, another masterpiece, and it shows Nancy has an awesome voice too! GREAT REACTION!!!!!!
Do the live in Seattle version if you do this one.
I have the pleasure of knowing Ann and Nancy
Nancy is criminally underrated!! Both as a musician and a singer....those high notes in the harmony?!?! Insane!!
And Ann's belts are just legendary!!!
These ladies are rock godesses!!
Her voice is amazing truly and great vocalists hands down
Best singer in the world! My beautiful annìe,my dreamboat .
Nancy is phanonal too
You’re right. One of the best singers, _period!_ Of course we were in love with the sisters back in the day but it was impossible to miss that they were kick-ass rockers fronting a very talented band.
Heart is my all-time favorite band, and this is my favorite song of theirs. And yes, I had a crush on Ann Wilson. You're right, the title of "best" has no gender. And they were just as good in concert, no studio or post-production tricks needed.
no the best singer all times is floor jansen who sings this cover better than heart the original is from i-10 1983
they sold talent, not sex. the sexual appeal was an afterthought. young women could learn allot from them, if they would just pay attention. if they were just selling sex, they would have no ability to draw a crowd at 70 and would be forgotten about. they arent, they are still touring.
Nancy Wilson is awesome....understatement of the century! Hahaha
I always loved Heart growing up and I had a crush on Nancy!!
Great Rock Ballad Classic
you need to check out These Dreams Live In Seattle Nancy Wilson can sing herself
If you liked this video, you’ll definitely want to react to “Stranded” which features Nancy on lead vocals!
I have a feeling you'll love "These Dreams", "All I Wanna Do (Is Make Love to You)" and "Barracuda".
Anne's voice is truly a singular force of nature. She can go from a hurticane, to a soft breeze. She's equal parts sledgehammer and scalpel.
How has she not done "Baracuda" The signature 70s Heart classic??????
Great analogy on Ann's voice.
Ann actually really hates the song "All I Wanna Do".
@@DarkMatterBurrito with a passion.
The amazing Wilson Sisters at their 80s zenith, they had an MTV period where they had one huge video after another. For a real banger from a few years after this, try Black on Black 2 which harkens back to Barracuda and is a flat out rocker. They could do soft or loud in equal measure, amongst the best. Enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎹🎶
React to These Dreams next, actually get to see Nancy in the forefront. :)
Loved the reaction Aileen. Heart's music is so timeless. Ann is one of the best vocalist ever and Nancy's guitar playing is ridiculously good. 🤘🥰
I've been listening this song since its release in 1987. The build up between Ann's singing, Nancy's piano, and the release into the guitars still gives me goosebumps. "Alone" is an awesome song.
"Heart, released on June 21, 1985, by Capitol Records" I saw this tour in '85
It was her rendition of this song that solidified Carrie Underwood's win on American Idol. And the rest is history. One of the most challenging female vocals ever, and Ann does it so effortlessly.
If you want to hear Nancy sing lead check out "These Dreams".
As the story goes she had a cold and didn't like the take, even though everyone else did. She tried again when she felt better, they decided to go with the original take.
In case you didn't notice Ann doesn't any full on shots in this video. She had gained a lot of weight and the big shots kept her up on the balcony, shot from a distance because she didn't fit the image management wanted.
For the "big hair" rendition, go w/ the original video version ; for a more "mature" visual, go w/ the live one. Both are excellent, vocally.
How do first time watching I think you're a sweetheart dear. Ann Wilson is the best rock singer of all time bar none her voice send shivers up and down my spine. Keep up the good work love watching you a really sweet
You truly feel the music Aileen! Yet another great reaction from you. Thanks from the UK. 👍
Nice harmonies from Nancy as well.

If you want to hear another female artist with an incredible sonic ability, I direct you to a good Canadian woman named Lee Aaron. You can still with "Hands On" which is a fun rock and roll song with a sonic hit you'll appreciate somewhere in the middle (🤪).

To answer your question, yes, that was Nancy Wilson riding a horse (briefly). Ann & Nancy Wilson have been long-time horse lovers, as they have raised horses and dogs as well. Glad you're loving this band.
I saw this tour in '85, Mr. Mister warmed up for them. There were 4 or 5 hits off of this album. Lots of MTV rotation on this one.
My favorite songs by Heart are “Fallen From Grace” co-written by Sammy Hagar and “Will you Be There” with Nancy Wilson on lead vocals.
I have been in love with both Wilson sisters since the 70s. LOL They're just so kick ass & beautiful.
Ann Willson's voice is not only legendary, it is simply ICONIC. And yet, this is one of the few songs (especially the acoustic version) where Nancy's backup vocals SHINES to both enhance AND counter Ann's voice. The sisters (Ann and Nancy) simply have the best harmonies in any female led rock group, but the fact that their harmonies are COUNTERS (high/low) pitch perfect is completely amazing.
I think this is one of their top five songs. And yes, in the 80's I had a serious crush on Nancy Wilson.
IMO Nancy Wilson is the best female guitar player in the world.
Nope 😂
But yes 🤣
"these dreams"
"never"
"what about love?"
all great songs. nancy is a goddess on that guitar.
As noted earlier the high singing back-up work is done by Anns' sister Nancy. I have always loved watching Nancy literally "Man Handle" her guitar! Such a showman, er, show-woman! In fact, when they introduced "Guitar Hero for girls" back in the day, they used Nancy Wilsons moves as the avatar!
Ann-Freaking-Wilson! I would love for you to also give early Linda Ronstadt some listens! The two greatest rock female voices as far as pure tone and power!
TOP 10 SONG OF ALL TIME !
These Dreams - Nancy on lead vocals.
Forever the greatest female rockers! In the world of YT Reactors…Nancy never get’s the props she deserves. Nancy is equally amazing; can outplay any male guitarist; equal power-vocalist.
You must see them live…check put Crazy on You/These Dreams from their Rock Hall Induction.

Ann Wilson has an outstanding voice and her sister Nancy, who sings a lot of the harmonies you just did has an outstanding voice herself. Plus shes an amazing acoustic guitar player with a whole lotta sass!!! 💕💕
How could you not love them! Beautiful and incredibly talented musicians
I've always said they are one of the greatest rock bands.
I really enjoy your reactions, Aileen, and this was no exception! Heart is truly great and while there is no rush to get to these two songs please put them on your list to get to one day: A live version of "Dog and Butterfly" and their cover of the Led Zeppelin song "Battle of Evermore"! You will never regret reacting to those ones!! Have a great day,
Can't get any better than a pair of sisters with beautiful voices harmonizing together. Genetics +talent +training +practice, omg!
Somewhat surprisingly, their first #1 hit, "These Dreams," has guitarist Nancy Wilson on lead vocals. A much softer, but still beautiful, voice. And as nice as the studio-version is, my personal favorite is their acoustic version: "These Dreams (Live in Seattle)" from 2002.
Nancy Wilson was very dreamy rockin out on her guitar
Heart is a fascinating band for so many reasons. But one of them is that they have had at least two distinct phases when they were practically two different bands.

You must listen All I Wanna Do Is Make Love To You(official video)by Heart. Greetings from Argentina.❤
Ann Wilson is amazing! She sings with such power and emotion; it's beautiful. You'd love her cover of "Beware of Darkness." I would highly recommend it. Great reaction, young lady. 👍👍
Ann Wilson is one of a kind such an incredible versatile singer.
I grew up listening to heart. Love love them. She is my favorite female singer. I'm so glad you are listening to what I got to hear when they first come out. Thanks for enjoying them.
My favorite Heart song and your reaction is my favorite too! Thank you and thumbs up!❤🔥
That song is a masterpiece
There are so many great heart songs, and I think this is their best! You mentioned a ballad, so check out "These Dreams". Also, other songs, "Never", "Barracuda", "What About Love", "Magic Man", and "Nothin' At All"
Thank you Aileen for not only listening to but hearing what a truly legendary vocalist sounds like!!
My number one favorite from all their songs... But have to tell you what was so powerful is when Lita Ford and Ozzy did an amazing duet... "Close My Eyes Forever".
You'll love it!
I grew up with Heart's music. They really are fantastic. Hope you react to "Magic Man" at some point. Another favorite of mine from Heart.
Thanks Aileen, great reaction.
I'd really recommend you react to this song but from their 2003 live in Seattle concert. It's stripped back with acoustic backing from Nancy only so really lays bare how good Anne's vocals are.
It’s amazing that both Ann and Nancy still have it. What a great career they’ve had.
Ann and Nancy Wilson, inspired by Led Zeppelin one of the first kick ass female rock bands! Love their passion! Great reaction! ❤
Great reaction and loved that you checked this out. You should really check out them do this live in Seattle. Acoustic, just her and a guitar. It’s so good! She has such an amazing voice.
Beautiful reaction to a very beautiful song. I'm really enjoying you Heart ride. Looking forward to seeing more. Thanks

Nancy Wilson was my 70's/80's Rock crush. Ann does that yell and most songs even better live!
what most people dont know is that heart didnt originally write this song , they bought it from a studio band, but they DEFINATELY made it theirs , ann wilson's name is ALL over the title of this song ;)
You bring everything to the table the music and your reactions are like 🍒s on top of your reactions keep up the outstanding work darlin ❤️
This was the first heart song I ever heard, back in the 80s, and I was hooked, thankfully got to see them in concert months ago, right before they had to cancel the tour..so grateful to have been able to see them, and they were phenomenal live.

This is why you are my favorite Reactor. I would love to see your reaction to Elvis Presley's "If I Can Dream". If you have. Reacted to this one i apologize for requesting it, but I have not found it.
Ann and Nancy are rock gods!
Love me some Heart
This is a fantastic song.
Anne is incredible. Nancy is also very good, and definitely having fun on guitar. So much energy from both of them.
Check out "These Dreams" from 1985 another hit of theirs but Nancy sang lead on that one.
I remember this song used to get a LOT of play on the dedication line on the radio, plenty of times from the "secret admirer". Was probably rivaled only by Right Here Waiting by Richard Marx for sheer number of requests. A lot of people don't realize this song is actually a cover of a song by i-Ten, but Heart took it to new heights. Stratospheric
"I've got to remember to breath when I listen to Heart" - Well, here are a few more Heart recommendations to help you with your breathing exercises:
"Barracuda"
"Magic Man"
"Love Alive"
"Nada One"
"Sing Child"
"Heartless"
"Without You" (Badfinger cover)
"Cry to Me"
"Say Hello"
"Straight On"
"Dog & Butterfly"
"Mistral Wind"
I've seen heart twice 1977 1979 great shows we went to alot of concerts in the 70s and 80s
Heart... Ann & Nancy Wilson! I could listen to their playlist over and over and never get tired of the music! These ladies have been Rockin from day one and are now Legends in the Rock World! Your reaction is awesome and they do take your breath away! Hope you listen to more Heart! Luv ya Aileen ❤️💛
Thank You Aileen, another great reaction to another great song by Heart. You can't go wrong with Heart.
One of the best vocalists of all time!
If you want to experience their more folk influenced songs then I heartily recommend ‘Dream of The Archer’.
You should check out their performance of These Dreams live in Seattle. One of the best live performances I have ever seen. Ann is an amazing singer but Nancy has an amazing voice as well and she really shines in this performance.
The 80’s perfected the Power Ballad! This is a perfect example of that. The beginning is calm, quiet and melancholy then the power part of the ballad kicks you in the face!
I've seen hundreds of bands live and heart is in my top 10, they are incredible
Heart rocked it out in the 80's! Ann Wilson did a solo song BEST MAN IN THE WORLD which is amazing, It was for the 80's Eddie Murphy movie The Golden Child.
Great reaction - thanks for saying about not needing a separate category for female singers, it does bug me when people pretend they are two separate boxes. Other Heart songs I'd suggest would be _Barracuda_ and _These_ _Dreams,_ both excellent. Enjoy!
Its not fair that two people were born with such incredible musical talent... im just glad they decided to share their misic with the world...
Great and powerful voice. She ranks high on my personal list of great vocalists. Great song too.
2 very talented sisters.
Loved the big hair days saw them during that time beautiful and so talented what a group
Nancy kicking it with that guitar. Rock on love that blonde. Anns voice top form with this song. What not to love. Thanks Aileen
I grew up in the 70's and listened to Heart, Zeppelin, tull, journey, and so many great Rockers. The golden age of Rock. Nice seeing young people now enjoying this iconic music.
that's why she has that C3-E6 vocal range... LOVE THEM ... thanx 4 sharing w/ ur opinion x
I remember when this song debuted on MTV in May of 1987. I loved it of course, but was so spoiled on all the great music at that time, it didn't even phase me how great it was. Love watching the young Gens tripping out on it. I kind of saw that rewind coming on the break. lol. Yep, gotta hear that again!
Ann Wilson is a rock goddess. And I can’t help but laugh silently at the band’s antics, so 80s hair metal-ish and rock musicians were so over the top back in those days. And now after a long while of grunge and post punk and nu metal we all started to miss the 80s for real. Variation is the shite.
A golden set of vocal cords is right...they don't come around all that often and when they do...they're even better when set to the right music. It's when the best comes together to be great...
I've been in love with Ann Wilson since I was a little kid, and my older brother introduced me to them. I've never not been in love with her to this day. Her voice alone at times almost stuns my soul. What an amazing woman.
Thank you, I love it!!! It just makes my heart happy to see the younger generation appreciate brilliance! The three most drop-dead gorgeous women on the planet are Ann Wilson of heart, Stevie Nicks of Fleetwood Mac, and Amy Lee of Evanescence! Their sheer beauty is only topped by their vocal abilities! You should react to some Evanescence.
If you really want to hear the sisters harmonize, definitely check out *Straight On.* Real funky and fierce, one of my favourites from Heart ❤️
These ladies are amazing in person. I saw them in 81 in Orlando at the Citrus Bowl stadium, along with Cheap Trick and Blue Oyster Cult. Definitely one of the best concerts of my life.
Saw them twice ‘86 and again in 2014. They are amazing and better than ever.
This music is perfect for this fantastic day here in the UK, we have sun and warmth in October!!! Its a near perfect day here...
Ann Wilson is a top tier vocalist. Love her. One of the few singers who can give me goosebumps when she does her vocals.
Floor Jansen of Nightwish did an amazing cover of this song.
Yes everything you said is true ...awesome band
There are a lot of music judges (Simon Cowell being the most famous) that remind and advise singers what songs and artists to stay clear of, with Anne, Celine and Whitney being the top 3. Carrie Underwood's cover is pretty good but let's be honest, this is Anne's song and always will be. Love the reaction!!
