This still gives me goosebumps... Never ever had I seen anything like this back in 1976! This rocked our lives! I was a girl of 15 years old back then, and for the first time I saw ... women rocked! Women could take the lead in a rock band; and rock while singing high and hard; and rock on the guitar, and hit a chord in anyone! Thank you - Heart - for changing my life.
Wow, this is one of the greatest live performances I've EVER heard! At first I thought she was lipsynching, because she sings SO perfectly, but it's all real! What an amazing singer, and equally talented band, of course!! *bows down in utter respect*
Ann's voice is even better now. I can't believe they still aren't in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Nancy is one of the best guitarists I have ever seen. Try and play that song and you will realize just how good she is.
one word...class... one of the best female singers bang on the button... big smiles..wish we had more girls rocking out..what about that intro by Nancy...just class...
Whoever the 67 idiots are who disliked this, you are either deaf or don't like Heart to begin with. I love raw performances, and Heart rocks! I sing this at karaoke from time to time, love this song.
Complete perfection at every stop. Drums, Bass, guitars, singers. This is PRO. Before selling to the demographic was more important than quality music.
I love this band! Ann is my favorite singer of all time! She has an amazing vocal range and she sings with pure complete soul. Nancy is an amazing guitar player and singer. I had a chance to see them perform about a year ago and they blew my mind! HEART seriously rocks! : )
Two very, very talented sisters. There is so little of this kind of creativity and power in modern music, I'm hoping it will make a comeback eventually.
I saw them a few years ago in NYC. One of the best shows I have ever been to. Nancy is an awesome guitar player, let alone that she is so beautiful. The two of the sisters are beautiful. I don't think rock will ever see another vocalist like Ann Wilson.
PURE UNBRIDLED PASSION......AWESOME PERFORMANCE BY ALL THE BAND MEMBERS. They just don't play naturally with feel & passion like this anymore...never again......
Ann Wilson is right there with the greatest when it comes lead vocals. Nancy Wilson's composition in this song is perfect. Obviously, Jimmy Page was her mentor. Heart is like the female version of Led Zeppelin.
When you had to be good, talented and original to be heard on the radio. When music was truly music and Rock and Roll was not a bunch of recycled crap as it is today. Well, it could be worse today such as music that has no instruments but just words that rhyme. Where have all the good bands gone? Thanks Heart {Ann, Nancy and every other member} for making us happy all these years and for playing at the Boston Music Hall in 1978. Now that was a great show!!!
used to play this song everytime on the JUKEBOX when i went to my parents' tavern/pizza restaurant when i was a kid.... love it! brings back a tons of memories..... xo
Ah, the true essence of Rock & Roll. The syntax of the song is delivered by Ann with immeasurably intense passion. The instruments are played with the same fanatic vigor one would find in a athlete competing in the final event on the last day of the Olympics. And as a extra bonus part of the verses in this song seem as if they were conjured up by some world renowned 14th century poet. Excellent stuff. Thanks for posting.
Man... I keep comin back to the Heart videos....such a flashback/rush. This is what I saw exactly. I was 16 in 1976...fall of my jr. in high school. Heart opened then Head East then BTO. Love that time period more now then ever. Fun times Tim
Saw them in Greensboro Coliseum in NC 1978. What a display of Power. Ann favored my girlfriend at the time so much it wasn't funny. No wonder I loved her so much and still to this day. Miss you Debbie.
I was in the Army stationed at Fort Carson, Colorado when I discovered Heart. I still go back there whenever I hear them sing. Still think that Ann has the sexiest voice I have ever heard.
The synergy of how they work together is the key to their sound. The guitars and drums speak right along with Ann. I listen to this often and it never gets old. Love it.
Ann Wilson has never gotten the credit she deserves as one of the best rock guitar composers of our time..what a shame..if you doubt just replay that intro a few times...I've been playing for 40 years and that was perfection!
Omg, this is the best I have heard her sing this,her voice was perfect,power projection and hits all the notes,fluff head said it spot on,who doesn't love Ann or Nancy? I wish she was going crazy on me right now.
I was born in 1975 . I was listening to my big brother´s music (I was not allowed to go into his room,always big trouble), discovering Heart at the age of 12 and still loving it. Ann´s voice is the best ever.
Unmatched... there's NEVER been a woman before OR since with a voice this clear and powerful! Some may say Annie Lennox or Chrissie Hynde... both great singers, but no one, NO ONE can sing like this!!! Ann Wilson IS rock royalty!
2right4words Heart is somewhat inspired by the Moody Blues, actually. Crazy on You for certain. Listen to the opening strumming pattern after the intro. Nancy Wilson has said that was inspired by Justin Hayward's strumming pattern on Question. It's slower on Crazy on You and in a different chord progression, but it's almost the exact same rhythm pattern. So, that in addition to the mellotron and vocal harmonies indeed makes it Moody inspired. The A minor G Major F major progression here, on the other hand, is confirmed to be a Zeppelin influence.
Northwestern I've already said, the band that Heart owes a lot of its sound is Led Zeppelin, but yeah, you see a big influence from The Moody Blues as well
Wilhelm Orangenbaum I am aware of that. The reason for my comment was to point out more the source of the Moody Blues sound, as less people would know the influence of Question specifically on this song than they would the Zeppelin ones. Sadly, The Moody Blues didn't get as much publicity as they should have and are far underrated -so not everyone knows them.
Northwestern You're right, I give you points for the information about Question's influence on this song. I totally agree with your opinion about The Moody Blues, they sold well and were popular in their time, but they have been renegade to be one of the most undervalued bands there are. I don't understand how they are never mentioned by the progressive rock community (Aka: pretentious circlejerk), being that they are a pillar of the genre
These 70's chick are the best! I was 15 when this came out and I was hooked! Smoked alot of herb and made out alot to Heart, especially "Magic Man"! The 70's were as awesome as any decade could be and I wouldn't trade growing up in that era to any!!!!
Damn, I used to sit in my older sisters room and listen to all these great records as kid, maybe 5-6 years old? I went into hardcore punk but still love these classics!
I just had the AWESOME privilage of seeing "HEART" in concert, in Tampa, Fl. THEY WERE FREAKIN' AMAZING...They still have it, neither one has lost their TALENT!! ANNE can still "KICK ASS" with her vocals and NANCY on the guitar!! We had a Great Time and the girls were Fantastic!!
They were both smoking hot back in the day. I saw them in concert 31 years ago and I was leaning on the edge of the stage. So close I could have reached out and touched them. Awesome in concert!
Definitive version of this great song on youtube imo. 2 rock chicks no ugly big hair. Huge vocals by Ann and storming guitar by Nancy and good stuff by the rest of the band.
I've been a fan forever and I'm still speechless!! God bless the crazy talent those sisters give out... unbelievable to this day. Great band.. God bless the 70s..
Never mind that these women have done more for the music industry by their sponsorship in their studio than most artists ever do. Never mind that with a career spanning 4 decades, they're still playing and touring with the same love for music and powerful performances that they had starting out. This song gives me the same goosebumps it did 35 years ago. Screw the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame - I have my own hall of fame and these ladies are right up there near the top of the list in it.
This song always reminds me of driving to Florida for Spring Break with the windows down and the stereo cranked up, with no cares in the world...Great song!!
Great to see the original line up. As a boy, it was Nancy Wilson who inspired me to play guitar. I was SO in love...I live near Seattle, and Ann and Nancy play quite a bit here in small venues as the Love Mongers..Great Stuff.

She looks like a princess but pierces the air with the cries of a wild woman
The 70's was the best of times.
This band kicked a lot of people's asses. One of the handful of bands that will define my lifetime.
Anne and Nancy Wilson were so freakin' beautiful in the 70's!
One of the BEST acoustic intro's EVER!!! This song is a true classic.
Ann's voice - the best in rock and roll! Watch Nancy get after it on the guitar - wow - I can't move my hands that fast...
Ann has such a powerful voice. She knocks me out.
I never knew Nancy was doing the intro to this. She's a better guitarist than I gave her credit for. Kick ass intro!
Nothing sounds like an Ovation acoustic, bravo Nancy!!!
This still gives me goosebumps...
Never ever had I seen anything like this back in 1976!
This rocked our lives!
I was a girl of 15 years old back then, and for the first time I saw ... women rocked!
Women could take the lead in a rock band; and rock while singing high and hard; and rock on the guitar, and hit a chord in anyone!
Thank you - Heart - for changing my life.
Nancy Wilson is amazing in her first minute.... And Ann's voice is always so powerful!
Nancy's acoustic solo at the begining of Crazy On You is a joy to behold. Ann and Nancy the two best female performers in Rock.
One of greatest band of all times,also greatest sisters in music ever !
Holy shit.. That intro was ridiculous... I really got goosebumps lol.
Time marches on, but she still sounds exactly like that
Amazing voice
That intro slayed me. What a performance, sooo bad ass!!!
Have loved Ann Wilson for 35 years now.WHAT A VOICE!
Wow, this is one of the greatest live performances I've EVER heard! At first I thought she was lipsynching, because she sings SO perfectly, but it's all real! What an amazing singer, and equally talented band, of course!!
*bows down in utter respect*
Ann's voice always gives me the chills... she's simply awesome!
Ahhhhh, loved Heart so much back in the day... this was one of my favorite songs by them.
Holy badass mothers. This is just badass.
Ann's voice is even better now. I can't believe they still aren't in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Nancy is one of the best guitarists I have ever seen. Try and play that song and you will realize just how good she is.
Nancy totally OWNS here! WOW! What an incredible musician she is!
I LOVE HEART SO MUCH!
SUZI QUATRO broke the glass ceiling for The Runaways & Heart.
SUZI QUATRO is the QUEEN of ROCK!!!!!!!!!!
i get choke up everytime i see this...take me back to the 70's please!
I actually want to cry!!
one word...class... one of the best female singers bang on the button... big smiles..wish we had more girls rocking out..what about that intro by Nancy...just class...

Amen to all of the accolades for Ann Wilson!!!! God, just so damned great!

The lead singing was so beautiful,
Why couldn't i been around when she was still young lol
Girls got some pipes! Wish I could belt it out like that!
Damn this has got to be the best quality version of this on youtube. Nancy kills the intro. Instantly added this to my "magnificent music" playlist!
Live classic rock perfection from Heart !!! Great stuff !!!

Saw them at Cobo Hall in Detroit. Still remember the incredible energy! They had great legs too.
Beautiful Corset the Bass player is wearing. I would like one of those too !!!
When I was but a teenage boy, my girlfriend looked just like Ann Wilson and had the same attitude as well. What a good life I've had!
My favorite Heart song.

Tim
This line up needs a reunion tour bring the boys back
im 38 yrs old and this is some of the best music ive ever heard an easy 10
how sweet it is...
Saw them in Greensboro Coliseum in NC 1978. What a display of Power. Ann favored my girlfriend at the time so much it wasn't funny. No wonder I loved her so much and still to this day. Miss you Debbie.
Blessed are the artists
I was in the Army stationed at Fort Carson, Colorado when I discovered Heart. I still go back there whenever I hear them sing. Still think that Ann has the sexiest voice I have ever heard.
Ann and Nancy look like they just got out of church and what is up with the bass player--is that a bustier?!!! But, wth, no matter, they RAWKED.
They were sexy, and classy at the same time. No need to make vulgar exhibitions, like many women do today.
I'm 3 weeks away from 54 and stillin love with Ann...fantastic video
Ann sings her guts out in this performance.
The synergy of how they work together is the key to their sound. The guitars and drums speak right along with Ann. I listen to this often and it never gets old. Love it.
Epic Band and Song !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ann Wilson has never gotten the credit she deserves as one of the best rock guitar composers of our time..what a shame..if you doubt just replay that intro a few times...I've been playing for 40 years and that was perfection!
Brilliant . her voice is pure evil
Omg, this is the best I have heard her sing this,her voice was perfect,power projection and hits all the notes,fluff head said it spot on,who doesn't love Ann or Nancy? I wish she was going crazy on me right now.
this is the best version of crazy on you....the version on their album isn't as good as this live performance
It gives me goose bumps too! Wow..what an awesome acoustic intros! Nancy can play the hell out of any acoustic!
Eh The 1970s beautiful styles they had even had man bra's totally awsome
I was born in 1975 . I was listening to my big brother´s music (I was not allowed to go into his room,always big trouble), discovering Heart at the age of 12 and still loving it. Ann´s voice is the best ever.
94 people just realized their favorite female singer is crap
Darrel Eddings - Incredible vocals. Not many can sing like that. You’re a moron.
Unmatched... there's NEVER been a woman before OR since with a voice this clear and powerful! Some may say Annie Lennox or Chrissie Hynde... both great singers, but no one, NO ONE can sing like this!!! Ann Wilson IS rock royalty!
its good but, i can not quite put my finger it. i think it needs more cowbell!!! Damn these girls are hot.
Ann Wilson just crushes it. Then and now. What a set'o'pipes. It was a pleasure to see 'em in the R&R Hall of Fame......finally.
their style sounds like The Moody Blues if they had a female lead singer
Like The Moody Blues combined with Led Zeppelin, more two great musically-talented vaginas.

Is that Michael DeRosier on drums?
It sure is Derosier on the kit.
These two girls showed us incredible music, elevated rock to a new level
WOW she is so mean at 3:30
And 4:56 ;)
the best female rock singer of all time
boy ! she got some pipes ! they dont have artists like this anymore !
I was raised with this music....i learned to ROCK before i could walk or talk!!!!
why cant music be this good anymore?
These two women challenge ANYTHING out there today-just amazing they sing, play, and most of all FEEL the music.
Nothing like Heart around today, Wow.
That's the best female voice in rock music. I always wonder how she knew the sound that would come out when she opened up at full force.
Damn, I used to sit in my older sisters room and listen to all these great records as kid, maybe 5-6 years old? I went into hardcore punk but still love these classics!
One Of The Best licks of 70's, memories flooded in on me, I was not expecting the total memory recall of '76
Saw them about 10 rows back in San Diego around '86, one of the best concerts ever!
Saw them play this last night.
Never saw them live before.
They are much more powerful in concert than they ever were on record. They really rock!
I just had the AWESOME privilage of seeing "HEART" in concert, in Tampa, Fl. THEY WERE FREAKIN' AMAZING...They still have it, neither one has lost their TALENT!! ANNE can still "KICK ASS" with her vocals and NANCY on the guitar!! We had a Great Time and the girls were Fantastic!!
The wilson sisters have always held high respect for me and my daughters even now...my oldest daughter's fav. heart song is "Alone"mine as well
They were both smoking hot back in the day. I saw them in concert 31 years ago and I was leaning on the edge of the stage. So close I could have reached out and touched them. Awesome in concert!
wow greatest guitar player love the intro!! and best singer in the world!!
love heart!!
the guitar intro she does in this song is my favorite guitar solo ever! I love the way she moves and kicks too! Classic.
what?! the intro is the best part!! i like it so much i have to listen to it at least 3 times before i continue with the rest of the song.
Definitive version of this great song on youtube imo. 2 rock chicks no ugly big hair. Huge vocals by Ann and storming guitar by Nancy and good stuff by the rest of the band.
One of the best screams in a song ever !!
Yeah, I saw them in Portland, Maine when I was..hmmm, young. Blew the house down. I still remember the dresses Ann and Nancy wore. Amazing talent.
I've been a fan forever and I'm still speechless!! God bless the crazy talent those sisters give out... unbelievable to this day. Great band.. God bless the 70s..
Never mind that these women have done more for the music industry by their sponsorship in their studio than most artists ever do.

Love this band and the Wilson Sisters. I have their albums
Great to see the original line up. As a boy, it was Nancy Wilson who inspired me to play guitar. I was SO in love...I live near Seattle, and Ann and Nancy play quite a bit here in small venues as the Love Mongers..Great Stuff.
Nancy is crazy as hell. I love it.
