Magic Man is a masterpiece. Such a classic, sensual sounding, 70's gem.
Thank you for the kind words
@@GeneralAdmission_1 You are awesome!
Indeed it is.
"Sensual" is a great choice of words, especially for the two guitars at 13:30 when one is descending in pitch as the other one is rising in pitch to intertwine their tones together.
I find it pretty boring
I feel like there is not an appreciation for how difficult this song is to do so perfectly on vocals. Ann is a goddess...
I agree! She has such a unique and masterful voice!
Yesssss. There was only one singer with her pitch and that was Whitney. No one can really cover either of these gorgeous voices at all
The lyrics in this song are so funny to me because it's so relatable to being young. "You don't understand mama, he's a Magic Man!" That's how everyone thinks about the first time they fall in love when you're young. It's the epitome of "Love is Blind" lol.
No offense you all talk too much. It starts to get good and you cut it off. Heart is a fantastic band.
The song is about charles manson lol
@@lisagraham2944 If you just want to listen to the song go listen to the song why are you watching a reaction if you don’t want to hear their opinion? Lol
Ann could sing a peanut butter commercial jingle and I would be enraptured. Hands down one of the best vocalists ever.
And her voice would still be sensual in that commercial.
Lord... you didn't tell any lies
She is incredible! She has a unique and masterful voice. The notes she can hit are out of this world!!!
Easy one of the best EVER
Imagine a duo with Jeff Lynne of ELO and Ann Wilson of Heart.Thatnwould be unbelieveable!!!
Magic Man's name is Michael Fisher. He was Ann's boyfriend and the band manager. Ann has talked about the song in a couple different interviews. :)
I believe you guys would love "Straight on". Funky AF and I totally believe it'd be instant playlist lol
Excellent suggestion
Absolutely! I was just about to reccomend Straight On
Acoustic! ruclips.net/video/m_KWP-3Brrw/видео.html
The hands playing these guitar solos are magic! 😎👍
I requested that one at the last Heart review. Also like Keep Your Love Alive
This is one of my favorite songs of all time. When I was a kid in the 70s this song actually scared me. It has a very ominous feel to it and obviously as a young child I had no idea what she was talking about, so I thought it was about some evil wizard or something casting spells on people. Needless to say it made a real impact on me at an early age and I have been drawn to this song ever since.
I think it actually IS about an evil magician casting a spell on her :) I love it too, and have a similar experience of it being a bit of a dark song from childhood. Kind of like David Bowie’s Space Oddity (dating myself here).. that song made me cry every time as a little kid.. but I loved it. Or, Hotel California, same thing.
Spot on. This is a story about a teen girl who gets infatuated with an older man who has other intentions. "Come on home girl, he said with a smile. You don't have to love me but let's get high a while...." The guitar sustained notes and the solo itself sets the ominous tone throughout the song. Well constructed song that tells a story.
@@patrickupstream84 The song was actually autobiographical. Ann Wilson was talking about herself and her boyfriend/manager Michael Fisher. I think she referred to it as her "leaving home" song.
@@Preacher357 Thanks for the clarification.
Me too but I still couldn't help but listen too and love this song.
For no particular reason, I feel like now is a good time to mention that Ann Wilson and Jerry Cantrell teamed up to cover "Black Hole Sun" live in tribute to Chris Cornell, and that might make a good video to react to.
And for those of you who didn't know, she's on the song Brother by Alice in Chains!!
@@JungleJuiceJoey love finding out about stuff like this so thanks!!
I had not run across that. Thank you so much!!
I very much enjoyed their cover of “Stairway to Heaven” at the Kennedy Center honors a few years back. The video is cool; they made the surviving band member cry.
One important thing to know about Heart is that they wanted to be Led Zeppelin when they grew up.
Aren't all the band members still alive? Except John Bonham of course.
@@SilentCriket , yes, but only one cried. 🥲
In Washington state we were lucky to see the members of band playing in their own bands and touring the state when Heart wasn't touring. It was amazing the talent all their guitar players had and loved to play.
Great honest reaction as always y’all. “Straight On” by Heart is another GREAT song from their late 70’s era. It’s definitely worth a listen.
You missed it dudes, you talked through one of the best bridges and more importantly, this was totally new at the masochist rock time.
less chatter and more platter
Always frustrating when reaction videos have people talking over the greatest moments
I find it annoying when people stop a song several times to talk about it. At least let it play through before you react
Fact
Agreed lol I got so mad as they weren't paying attention lol
George understands Anne Wilson lmao. He got EXACTLY what this and Crazy On You were about right off the bat
1 one of my favorite vocalists. period. Got to hear her sing Alone. and man. that is just a 1 of a kind.
We had never heard a female led group do anything like this before it was released. Have a feeling if you guys listen to it some more, it will grow on you
Love this, but gotta put in a word for Janis 😊
Roger Fisher led Heart
@@blakewallace4655 Not after the sisters came on board and started writing most of the songs. I'm not knocking Fisher's talent. But, he wasn't the "leader".
Absolutely agree, Lola!
@@Lola_Santoro the band was owned by the fisher brothers and the wilson sisters the brothers arranged and produced AND wrote
As a mom who's had teenage daughters, "try to understand he's a magic man mamma - he's got magic hands," would not have reassured me. HAHAHAHA
Yeah that would have me up at night ! 😳🤣🤣🤣
Oh, as if you were pure as the driven snow, Mom. 😇🥰👍
Got to put yourself in their shoes, I’m sure you had those magic hands on you back in your teens, lol
@@humboldtharry4248 I kept my mama up with my "Magic Man".... oh the feeling of young love!!!!
@@Mikey_Sea That’s how she knows!
Ann Wilson is one of the best singers in the history of Rock. Period!
Damn I love Anne's voice.
Magic man and crazy on you were written about their guitar player who was with Ann are the time. They moved to Canadian Vancouver (if I'm not mistaken) for him to escape the Viet Nam draft. I believe she was in her late teens when she wrote these songs.
Love heart. Glad you came back to them.
That's not entirely accurate. The guitar player (Roger Fisher) dated Nancy. It was his brother, Mike, that was the subject of Magic Man and was with Ann.
@@TobyGuidry cool, thanks for filling that in for me.
Barracuda has so much more edge because it's an angry song. It's their response to the way they were treated by the music industry and media. This is still from their romantic less-jaded first album.
This song is a slow burn and scorches in the end. Absolute fire.
yes, the change in tone at the end where it is mike asking her to come back and ann sounds a bit unstable like shes about to lose it. heartbreaking
I really feel like this is a song from a mother to a daughter
"he' s a magic man"
"your dad was too" is basically the vibe
the rhythm is repetitive but different because the daughter is doing the same thing the mother did
Now imagine that it’s 1976. You have some cash and you see Dreamboat Annie for sale in a record store. You take the plunge, buy it and fire it up on your turntable. First track is Magic Man. And it’s buy a band fronted by 2 sisters, and one is the lead guitar player.
Heart deserves so much credit forever. And I’m glad you guys appreciate them
You guys should listen to this song a couple more times. I listened to Heart for years before I realized this was their best song imo. It's just constructed so well. Btw, this song has been sampled many times, and many different parts of the song were sampled.
These guys are EXCELLENT at analyzing Heart. You can tell they really understand the essence of music. So impressed with their open-minded reactions. They go well beyond the standard fare. Great chemistry between them. If they don’t already have their own TV show, they should.
I wanna show appreciation for the record photo - and how the pair mimic a heart shape. Very clever.
Imagine being blessed with a voice like this, good lord!
Great band. This song is absolutely smashing. One of my all-time favorites. This tune is smooth as hell :)
There's a live version that just blows this one away. Great song.
For 80s style Heart, review "These Dreams" with Nancy on lead vocals! Yes, she sings very well!
These Dreams is so underrated!
"These Dreams" is an amazing song! One of my favorite tracks from the '80's!
I love Heart. Every song is great. Thanks for listening to one of their songs again. I always enjoy them!
Every girl at least "to me" has met that one man that magic man
Yes, thank the Lord! Lol😁
And my momma was right. My ass shoulda stayed at home 😂😂
This song is literally about Charles Manson, of the manson family. the guy that famously tricked young women into committing crimes for him.
@@samw9003 I believe this was about Ann's boyfriend and being on the road the first time.
This was written by Ann Wilson from her own experience with being drawn by a man in the band that became Heart, when they were trying to break in...for her singing ability. They were a little north of the border in Canada at the time.....but it quickly got to the point when Ann wouldn't stay unless they included her little sister Nancy to sing and play backup. They later moved the band to Seattle, where the sisters are from and from where Heart came to be known.
This is more of a magical song of romantic seduction.....and that's what it is meant to be.
Of course, there's much more to their story than that, but there's your watered down version.
It’s okay to say “Vancouver” since it’s global city and the third largest in the country.
Ahmm no, you're wrong, it's literally a song of romantic seduction, based on the relationship between Ann and her manager at the time, who was Roger Fisher's brother, the lead guitarist and Nancy's boyfriend
my dad used to play me heart in his old beat up pick up. hell yeah those were the days.
Best concert I ever saw. Heart at SPAC in NY. In the 90s. Sooo good!!
Check out Dog and Butterfly, both the song and the album. One side is soft songs (Butterfly) and the other side is harder (Dog).
Guys, with Heart keep the time in mind... mid 70's with a female guitar as lead. They held their own and then some. From a guitar playing stand point, Nancy Wilson is very under rated
Absolutely!!! She rocks and she has such a unique stage presence. She’s one of those players that you can tell her emotions are in there.
@@innit8376Correction: Michael Fisher is the "Magic Man" Anne's boyfriend and Heart's manager. Roger Fisher is the lead guitarist. Nancy Wilson is the rhythm guitarist with her shred-work driving the ENTIRE SONG (thing, thing, thing)!
She's a teenager in love because he can make her feel things she thought was only fantasy....PEACE!!!!
Ditto! I mean wtf.
Me and my brother saw Heart live back in the day, we made a sign that said “ Dear Ann and Nancy, we would give our left nuts to party with you!”….Nancy saw the sign and laughed, security took our sign about 10 minutes later…..good times.😂🔥👍
So are you guys all right now?
@@VinzClorthokeymasterofGozer That’s why the good Lord saw fit to give us a spare.😂
@@VinzClorthokeymasterofGozer nice!
Hahaha. Amazing!
Hahahahahahahha. “Lonely nights so long ago and whiskers on kittens”
I absolutely love everything about this song!
The element your looking for in this one is kind of hidden. It’s the way he tuned the two high strings on his guitar. This solo is the sickest from that time, in my opinion.
I saw Heart live in concert a few years ago. Ladies are still badass, got pipes, can play. Love them. If you do a "Ladies of Rock" marathon, I hope you veer into the ethereal/industrial weird of Portishead. "Glory Box" is...amazing. :)
Sometimes you need to be QUIET and listen to the whole song. Magic Man is a beautiful journey that shouldn't be interrupted over and over again.
" OMG " for real. They shut the song down and talked through so much of it. How could you get a true reaction. I was yelling at the video.....be quiet..lol! Leading into the best segment of this classic. Pause.haha
My thoughts exactly!!!!!!!!
You guys keep getting better and better at what you do. No other music review folks can compare.
Great job.
As a child of the 70's, this is one of my favorite Heart songs. Based on their lyrics "I cast my spell of love on you, a woman from a child" and "he's got magic hands", I always assumed she was a virgin and he was her first lover and, for her, at least, he had the magic D. In the end, it's all about good D, guys. 🤷🏻♀️😆
This was the first song from heart I ever heard in 1976. I was blessed to see them perform this twice. Awesome song awesome band!
That synthesiser is called a Moog (or specifically a Minimoog) and it was pretty big in the 1970s but was invented in the 1960s. It was an incredibly futuristic sound that innovated much of the 1980s synth sounds. One of the most notable masters of the Moog is Keith Emerson of The Nice and Emerson, Lake & Palmer.
You got it!!!!
Wow, I've never heard you guys completely miss the mood and focal points of a song until now. Go get your head right (wink wink) and try this one again! lol The vocals are so sensual and smokey sounding, to say they sound like southern rock or the sound of music is crazy to me. More important than that is the GUITAR in this song! That steady vamp sets up a dark and brooding mood that the lead guitar plays against perfectly. Those tones! This is one of the songs that made me want to play guitar.
Maybe by Southern they mean country. And yeah, nah, yeah. This is lyrical and ballad-ish in a country sort of way.
Yeah, they don’t give Heart the props they deserve. They called Ann a Disney Princess when they reacted to Barracuda. I was floored lol
I sent them this link, hopefully they'll watch and then get it. ruclips.net/video/mXOO7QVHgXs/видео.html
@Daniel Albert not country lol borderline southern rock
This song is all about laying down a smooth groove.
Always loved the drum track on this song
Hey guys, I've always loved the eerie atmosphere this song creates since I was just a child hearing it on the radio.. soon after, I had a crush on Ann Wilson lol
That guitar solo saved it for you guys because that's the creative talent of lead guitarist, Roger Fisher. The man played a HUGE part in the making of the early Heart rock n roll sound! Highly underrated player!
Heart is dope!! They changed the game at the time! Glad you guys reacted to this!!
This song was immediately fire for me because I'm a sucker for that bass and the drum backbeat throughout the song. This is my favorite Heart song hands down.
Bangles hazy shade of winter
Glad to see you guys really digging Heart, I really respect the both of you for really crossing all barriers and appreciating all music. Wish you both nothing but success in everything you do. Dream Boat Annie is another song you might like. 👍
I totally agree! You guys are great and I respect you as well! I’m so glad that you are open to all types of music it’s great to be a freethinker!!!!
React to Hearts tribute to Led Zeppelin at the Kennedy Center Honors.
The harmonies are absolutely angelic, about when the synthesizer comes in.
Magic Man was kind of autobiographical about her and Heart co founder Michael Fisher when they first were living together in the mtns away from family etc. Basically a young love song.
Heart definitely does great at capturing that kind of deep feeling; not just romance, but introspection and nostalgia as well. "Dog and Butterfly" is a brilliant tune, and very distinctive even within their own body of work; and just wonderfully captures that sort of introspective look back at childhood and growth.
This will always be my favorite Heart song. So smooooth to the ears 🤤
Saw Heart at the Texxas Jam in 79. It was 110° on the field but Heart came on right about dark and a thunderstorm rolled in. It was beautiful to see the clothes they had on blowing in the wind and Ann was belting. Unfortunately back then they had to stop because of the lightning. Good times and memories.
All their songs are unique. They don't really repeat themselves. Ann and Nancy are song writers, the entire band, so talented. Continue on with heart and do a reaction to straight on. Do their live performances. Ann is fantastic live.
Yes they rock in concert. They do not let you down at all!
You guys gotta do "Straight On" by Heart
Just listen to every Heart song lol they're actually SO GOOD.
I totally agree. My fav song of all time from them. For me.
Trust me, this song will grow on you. I love it! Always crank this when it comes on!!
Key words in this whole thing: "Oooh, he got magic hands".
um.... yeah. i guess magic hands are a bonus? :)
@@tallykev6608 Just ask my wife...
And they talked through it. Even on the replay. 🙄
Man I love Ann's voice. Just incredible. She and Brad Delp are probably my two favorite singers of all time.
This is a 70s stoner headphones song. If that’s your bag, you love it, hehe. Also, it really needs to be said: the hip guitar in early Heart should be properly credited to roger fisher. Listen to any of their music after he was out of the band and the importance of his contributions to their sound from this period will be readily apparent .
What is that about 70s stoner?
@@dalestoner2928 When you're a stoner everything is something-stoner. But I don't have to tell you that, do I Mr. Stoner?
I definitely feel like I am gliding on animated rainbow rollercoaster - my limbic system loves it.
@@independenceltd. , Truth.
It also helped that they were absolutely beautiful and cool as shit to watch! One of my favorite concerts! I was right up front.
Sonic Youth....kool thing....80s and 90s alternative rock...Kim Gordon wrote this song after an awkward interview that she did with LL cool J for spin magazine...its got a great driving beat and they always use bizzare guitar tunings....features chuck D as well...i beg you to check it out...i reckon you guys will love it
Yeah good choice. I’ve been wanting to see them dive more into the indie scene
Growing up with Heart, this song to me has held up the best after years of hearing them all.
Ice T sampled a little bit of the guitar breakdown for the song "Personal" on his Power album.
Y’all HAVE to check out Hearts version of the Righteous Brothers “Unchained Melody”
Pure creative genius
Ann Wilson has an AMAZING voice.
its that drum beat mixed with that guitar, its so great. still probably my favorite from Heart
Lol! I knew you'd come around in the end! But no worries... Barracuda is my favorite too! 😂
Gotta see magic man live fellas. No auto tune. No recorded backtracks. Pure talent. Magic man live has a killer guitar intro by Nancy then Anne sings with that killer voice. Listen to the lyrics.
Oh yeah. Heart's 70s output is criminally undermentioned. A great band.
Honestly The Wilson Sisters are phenomenal. You can’t go wrong with them
The other Heart songs are great, for sure.
But this one is mesmerizing.
The guitars are hypnotic.
All the layers! I remember being a kid and, yes - being mesmerized.
Alone, WHo Will You Run To, Never, Heartless - 80s Heart from when pop music ROCKED!!!
This song is the autumn of 1976 in a nutshell. I used to call it the try try try song as a little kid LOL
A classic, we've all heard this 100 times. It's fun to sing, with a killer guitar solo, and Ann's voice is always fire.
this is a bad ass song. No doubt. These women rocked
This is such a classic.
Absolutely amazing! 🖤
Have always loved 70's Heart. George it's interesting that you heard a Southern Rock vibe, I've always thought it had a deep funk to it especially when the hand percussion comes in. Glad you enjoyed it, the Wilson sisters poured everything into their music and their band was highly underrated.
Try "Straight On To You" it's terrific
Heart is everything.
Ryan, George: Here's something for you guys to think about. Heart was heavily heavily influenced by Led Zeppelin. They performed Stairway to Heaven when LZ was honored at the Kennedy Center 2012 Honors. This instrumental section in Magic Man is reminiscent of songs like Dazed and Confused, Whole Lotta Love, and other LZ classics with extensive instrumental interludes.
Heart Love Alive soo much Led Zeppelin...
And they admitted to ripping off the riff in Barracuda from Achilles Last Stand.
Yes, the song is autobiographical. The band's manager (the Magic Man) moved to Canada to avoid the Viet Nam draft. Ann moved there to be with him and the band reformed there. Ice-T sampled part of the guitar solo in his song Personal.
"Crazy on you" by Heart is fantastic and needs to be heard. As always, good work.
Not sure too many men can totally appreciate this song. It's all about that first man you meet that truly sets you on fire. Heart definitely wrote this one for the sisters, for sure. "He's got magic hands." My absolute favorite line of the song. Every time I hear it, I feel his hands on me again. It's a transportive song. Nothing but love for you both, but on this song, you just don't get it. Lol
This whole album is the greatest thing those sisters have ever done. Absolutely wonderful.
You really need to do live versions of these Heart songs. They are even better live.
Y’all absolutely NEED to react to Fleetwood Mac’s live performance of Silver Springs from The Dance.
Exactly it spoke to a generation!! And Ann’s voice come on! It’s a nice catchy tune also. Love it.
Probably my favorite Heart tune, even though it's been played to death on classic rock stations.
The middle instrumental section is slammin though.
Heart was one of my first concert and they sounded perfect it was insane!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ice T used part of that guitar breakdown in a song on his Power album. I can never remember which one.
Yup! It was "Personal". I was wondering if they would know the sample. :) ruclips.net/video/wWnHFxJrQg4/видео.html
as a 70's baby grew up on Heart and at the time was a guilty pleasure, only to learn nothing guilty about them, great band Ann and Nancy and rest of band great job.
