I can't argue with it. Especially since, in High School in Northern Virginia, a friend with a radio ran up to me in the hallway and said "Joe! DC 101 just mentioned that you sent in a vote for Ann Wilson for Best Female Vocalist in their "Who's the Greatest?" Survey!" Still proud of that vote!
@@joescott8877When it was a true rock station. From Howard Stern to the Greaseman. DC101 had the raunchy-est wildest morning drive for a minute. Now it’s an obnoxious hyena.
This is a great example why I think Airplay Beats is the preeminent music reaction channel now. Most other reaction channels have to react to a music video, I suppose because they think RUclips being a visual medium, they have to put a video up. But these guys are reacting to the original music. And a lot of reactors chose a music video to react to Heart's Magic Man, and put up a promotional video of the band performing to the radio edit of this song, missing most of the long instrumental of this song, completely missing this songs greatness. In every Led Zeppelin video these guys put up, there is the usual chorus of commenters telling them they have to see this or that live version of the song they just reacted to. But La and Che keep plugging away to the great studio album originals. Which is what a MUSIC reactor is supposed to do. These guys are the GOAT of music reactors on RUclips.
The beauty of Ann Wilson's voice is that she makes it sound as if she's whispering the tune into your ear, telling you the tale in person, almost pleading with you.
Well-said! (Though, yeah, not as well as "Dreamboat Annie" coulda sung it, lol.) The way she sings those lovely lyrics of "Crazy on You" drives me outta my tree, man. And indeed, they could describe her voice as well: "...The whisper that calls after you in the night/And kisses your ear in the early liigghht..." I mean, just: F*ck. Me. Runnin'.
The "Magic Man" is Mike Fisher, the group's original guitarist. He was Ann Wilson's boyfriend, and she followed him to Canada during the Vietnam War years so he wouldn't get drafted. In 1974, Nancy Wilson (Ann's sister) joined the band and Fisher became their manager and sound engineer. The song is about being madly in love to the point where you are not thinking clearly. The line, "Come on home girl..." relates to Ann Wilson's mother. The line, "Try to understand, Mama, he's a magic man" is Ann's response. Wilson says her mother helped keep her grounded when she was being rather irrational and acting under the spell of her "magic man."
Heart is magnificent and has been for many decades. Try a banger that does not get played as often as Barracuda but is in the same hard rocking vein: Black on Black II. A great hard charging tune, hits like its famous predecessor. Enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎸🎶
If there is any Heart song where the kudos don't belong with Ann and Nancy, this is it. Sure the vocals are are superb - its Ann Wilson after all, but the shared guitar work of Roger Fisher and Steve Leese on this track, especially that mesmerizing trade off during the solo/breakdown are out of this world. Their work is the creative soul of this song
Sing child sing their greatest song hands down... There's a live version on a public TV show.. please review that one. The whole show is fantastic actually
Great reaction! Ann Wilson has such an incredible voice! I saw them twice in the early 80s and they put on such a fantastic show! Love “Dog and Butterfly”👍🏻🐶🦋
Sister Ann has that vocal power, and she's letting fans know she's found a smooth operator play for real. Yeah, girl, I understand you found the magic. Great song, guys, with excellent vocals, and AirplayBeats commentary.
Damn! You guys picked three killer songs today!! Heart was a fantastic band that succumbed to personal squabbles and relationship problems. Everyone focuses on Anne and Nancy, but the rest of the original band members were phenomenal. The original bassist and drummer tour as Heart To Heart and do these songs as they should be done. Great band.
This song, this first album, took a fantastic local band and sent them on their road to the top of the charts. Before this album and its singles, Heart was one of the hottest acts in the city. Just before they released this, they played any gig in the city they could land and I saw them as many as I could, including one magical night at my high school. Experiencing Heart from five feet away was a joy I'll never forget. It's true, Ann sang in different styles depending on the song, but she was always an incredible singer. A great vocalist knows when to hold back and sing softly and when to blow the gaskets and belt it out. Heart's early sound was Rock mixed with Folk and Gypsy with a strong Led Zeppelin influence. Ann not only sang, she also played flute during several songs. I've so many memories of Heart, before and during the fame, but nothing tops those early years when I could be in the front row of almost any show I caught. I was there enough the sisters and the band recognised me each time. The last time I saw them was August 1978, at an all day concert filled with other bands, in our outdoor football stadium. I've mentioned before my memories of that night so I'll only just say it remains one of my favourite concerts of the hundreds that I've seen.
Heart was major followers of Led Zeppelin. You can hear the influence. Ann imitates Robert Plant a lot in her singing. Which is probably why they chose Heart to do Stairway to Heaven at the Kennedy Awards
A straight-up rock/pop song. Incredible debut album with many different styles. Someday you guys have to sit down and listen to the whole thing start to finish. The way we USED to listen to music back in the day! Again, the 70's was a great time to be a teenager! Have a great day!
@@Grizazzle Ya, we all knew each others birthdays since everyone would get at least one album, or the money to buy it! And remember the Columbia Music Club? 12 records for $1.49, but you must buy 12 more at regular price in the next 12 months! Ya, right. They're STILL looking for me!
I love when you guys both did the step back like “dafuq was that?” And it went next level with the synth, and your enjoyment went up like 5 notches. 👏🏼
I saw Heart in 1978 in Lake Charles La. I was able to sneak in the concert with my photographer buddy who had a press pass for the local newspaper. They blew my mind Ann singing was off the charts.
The main lead guitarist is Roger Fisher. Nancy was usually on acoustic or rhythm electric. Have you reacted to Heart doing Stairway to Heaven in front of Led Zeppelin ????? At the Kennedy Center tribute to them they were phenomenal!!! ❤❤❤❤
Magic Man, my first introduction to rock music in '76. While Nancy Wilson is a stellar guitarist, she primarily plays rhythm acoustic guitar. Their lead (elec) guitarist was Roger Fisher (until '79), and Howard Leese their keyboardist providing 2nd lead guitar duties. It wasn't till Fisher was booted out that Nancy began providing elec rhythm guitar, debuting on their 5th studio album, BeBe Le Strange.
Hey guys, been watching y'all for a bit but just recently subscribed. Heart. Ann & Nancy Wilson. This song is from their first album, Dreamboat Annie, and every song on it is excellent! I think you already did Crazy On You, but there are many more...I was going to mention others you should look into, but that would include every song, so... Anyways, I've always had the notion that everyone associated with this album had crushes (or more) for Ann & Nancy; the production and mixing alone are stupendous, especially for an unknown band's first album. As for Ann's vocals, I would probably call them crystal clear, strong when needed, soft at times, but there is ALWAYS that perfect pitch, execution, and clarity. The guitars on this song are NOT all Nancy...I think she was mainly the rhythm beat on this one (which was supposedly inspired by Led Zeppelin's Immigrant Song). But Nancy IS indeed a genius on any guitar or style, and she obviously (when you meet her) has a mind that works a bit differently than most people (in the best possible way). I actually got to meet and sit down and chat with them both in the late 90's...and they are as charming in person as they are consummate musical artists. Incidentally, they're both still active, mostly apart recently, although they are said to be working together on new materiel right now. You might consider doing this whole album at once, the songs are kind of connected, and the range of different styles is great to follow through the whole thing. Keep up the great songs and the compact but on-point comments, you're doing it just about perfectly yourselves as reactors!
I second the motion to do the whole album! Dreamboat Annie is my 3rd favorite album (from different artists). I really think you guys would enjoy so much working your way through it. If you do break it up into "individual songs", I suggest that you combine the following tracks into single reactions: Dreamboat Annie (Fantasy Child)/Crazy On You (I know you already did it live, but it's so good that you ought to do the studio version, too) Soul of the Sea/Dreamboat Annie (this ends side one of the vinyl) How Deep It Goes/Dreamboat Annie (Reprise) (this ends the album) Here are my 10 favorite albums: 1 - Yes - Tales From Topographic Oceans 2 - Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here 3 - Heart - Dreamboat Annie 4 - Chicago - Chicago V 5 - Emerson Lake & Palmer - Emerson Lake & Palmer 6 - Led Zeppelin - Physical Graffiti 7 - Jeff Beck - Blow By Blow 8 - Deep Purple - Machine Head 9 - Genesis - A Trick of the Tail 10 - Steely Dan - Aja
Note the drum fill that is basically what Phil Collins most likely lifted for In The Air Tonight (accidentally). This is one of the COOLEST songs ever. It’s a treasure.
I bought this album right after it dropped. A guy who worked at the local record shop would always make suggestions about new records he thought I would like. I think the Seattle area radio stations had played "Magic Man" for a while, but that was my only previous exposure to Heart when I heard this album for the first time. It's still a great listen, in my opinion. Keep on rockin' 🤘 Tioraidh an-drasta 🏴
I freakin’ LOVE THAT SONG!!!!! From the very first time I heard it in the 70’s… some good live versions out there too…. Let’s get high a while indeed! My ears breath in that voice and off I go!
Heart is one of those few bands that hit the ground running. First album was multiplatinum, which is true for the majority of their albums. Heart is known for the soaring vocals of Ann Wilson and the sparse, tasteful solo licks of Rodger Fisher. Let's also not leave out the intricate, crescendo segments of their great productions, such as the outro here which lasts half the song. If you're not aware already, the sisters were greatly influenced by Zeppelin. Thus their Kennedy Center tribute to the boys. The sisters said that Plant's praise of their rendition was a highlight of their career. "Magnificent and spectacular, a real 'we're not worthy' moment". Plant
Back in the 70s, one evening me and a friend dropped six hits of microdot, drove my pickup out in the middle of a tobacco field, opened the doors, cranked the radio and laid down in the truck bed and stared at the stars. This song came on and the stars started pulsing to the beat. When it got to the guitar solo, they started swirling around in a spiral, in time with the riff😆. I rarely see her anymore, but she always brings it up when we do.
Che, there are so many great songs for two of you two discover it's impossible to suggest them all. You guys have 20+ years worth of really amazing music to catch up on.
I checked your catalog, and you guys still have plenty of "Hearts" to win! Ann shows she can go big with her voice, too, with the funky AF "Heartless" (Another huge hit for them.) "Love Alive" is an amazingly sweet-yet-rockin' tune. "Kick it Out" is quite kick-ass. "Bebe La Strange" is so full of Ann's awesome personality. "Dreamboat Annie" will put you in Heaven. "Rockin Heaven Down" brings you--JAMMING--back to Earth. They also nail lots of covers of their fav band (and mine, heh), Led Zeppelin!
I guess you're talking about how pure her tone is vocally, when you say "soft" -- to me, she's such a powerhouse, I can't see 'soft'. This song is so overfamiliar to me, it's great to watch these reactions to help hear it anew. Early Heart was so spectacular.
Saw them in concert a couple of times in the 80s! Always a solid show! Saw them with Peter Frampton opening, that was a fun show! Now on to George Harrison La & Chi! Nice reactions!
I remember how much we all loved this album when it came out...FYI, they loved Led Zep...And it's no wonder that they were the ones to do Stairway to Heaven at the Led Zep tribute.
5:51 The look on y’all’s faces when the Minimoog synthesizer comes in 🤣🤣🤣 and 6:04 “man, this is dope.” Yes, yes it is!!! Especially when they bring it down to the bass that’s playing. Gives my eardrums a cool vibe.
One advantage you guys as "reactors" have over us old-timers is you have had someone recommend these songs to you so you can put them on and really listen to them for the first time. In my case, I would usually hear a new song on the radio without knowing who or what it was. And sometimes I'd turn the radio on in the middle of something I never heard before. And then I'd have to wait for who knows how long to hear it again! The only way to control the situation was to buy the album. And many times the only songs I really cared for were the ones they played on the radio anyway! But sometimes, you play the album when you got home, and then you would realize that there's much more to it then meets the eye (or the radio). Dreamboat Annie was one of those albums. I was STUNNED at how good each and every song was. Those who didn't buy the album never knew what they were missing. It was a great time to be a teenager, but what you heard was really left up to the Program Directors. There's good and bad about that too. Thankfully we hd 4-5 rock stations in the Bay Area. I wore out the push buttons on my Kraco car radio!
Been watching you two for a few months and i have to say you keep getting better. I love to see when you both fully let your personalities show through. Love the content too!
Ann Wilson is the original GOAT of female rock vocalist. Period. IMO
That may be more than just "opinion"....lol
@@2869may for sure!
No doubt about it.
I can't argue with it. Especially since, in High School in Northern Virginia, a friend with a radio ran up to me in the hallway and said "Joe! DC 101 just mentioned that you sent in a vote for Ann Wilson for Best Female Vocalist in their "Who's the Greatest?" Survey!" Still proud of that vote!

After 45 years this song is still an FM radio station staple song.
Very true, I hear it almost every time I go driving with my mom on the radio.

Great way to put it and I believe that’s what they were doing
Simply Heart's finest song.
Heart is an iconic band and Ann Wilson is the GOAT. One of my favorite songs.
One of the finest debut albums in rock history.
Heart were/are fans of Led Zeppelin and in their live shows back in the late 70s used to do a very good version of Zep's "Rock and Roll".
Heart awesome as ever! One of my favorites! 👌👌👌
You can't go wrong with siblings in a rock band, Ann and Nancy are awesome
Oasis 😂😂
Go way back and listen to the harmonies of the Everly Brothers. Impeccable. Ann has a fantastic voice. Her sister is the guitar player- not a singer.
Except that sadly enough it actually went wrong
Dreamboat Annie and Dog and Butterfly are 2 beautiful songs you should listen to. Softer and really show off Ann’s gorgeous range.
The "Magic Man" is Mike Fisher, the group's original guitarist. He was Ann Wilson's boyfriend, and she followed him to Canada during the Vietnam War years so he wouldn't get drafted. In 1974, Nancy Wilson (Ann's sister) joined the band and Fisher became their manager and sound engineer. The song is about being madly in love to the point where you are not thinking clearly.

Well done 👏 I was searching to see if anyone had shared that the song is about Mike & is a true story.
Heart was fire in the 70's, love them!
My favorite ♥song❤❤❤❤❤❤
I still hear it on the radio all of the time👍 Heart💯❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Love Alive, Kick It Out, Rockin' Heaven Down are three great Heart tunes.
Heart is magnificent and has been for many decades. Try a banger that does not get played as often as Barracuda but is in the same hard rocking vein: Black on Black II. A great hard charging tune, hits like its famous predecessor. Enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎸🎶
This has a seductive sound.. she can bust out vocals like no one else.. but let’s not forget how great the guitar players are too…
If there is any Heart song where the kudos don't belong with Ann and Nancy, this is it. Sure the vocals are are superb - its Ann Wilson after all, but the shared guitar work of Roger Fisher and Steve Leese on this track, especially that mesmerizing trade off during the solo/breakdown are out of this world. Their work is the creative soul of this song
Steve Fossen on Bass, Howard Leese on Guitar and Minimoog. I have seen Howard in every decade since the 70's, with Heart and Bad Company.
Roger Fisher is playing lead guitar. Nancy Wilson plays acoustic guitar. Roger Fisher arranged the music.
"Sing Child" live 70's performance...great rock flute from Ann and killer guitar solo by Roger Fischer.
I wish current music artists would bring back the old school synthesizers. Every reactor seems amazed by the sound.
They’re definitely underappreciated, a lot of those old synths had some really interesting sounds that are hard to replicate
MOOG
I forgot how beautifully complex this gem is.
Don’t discount Nancy’s voice and the magic of blood-harmonies. Nancy’s love is the guitar But, y’all must hear Nancy lead on “These Dreams”.
Don't forget about Treat Me Well from Little Queen! 😉
What's funny is this was their biggest hit and Ann wasn't singing the lead.
"SING CHILD", and "White Lighting and Wine" are two songs from heart that are off the scales...! You will hear the notes you know she can hit.
I was just about to text the same songs…… you beat me too it !!!
❤
Sing child sing their greatest song hands down... There's a live version on a public TV show.. please review that one. The whole show is fantastic actually
spot on
YES. Sing child. Dreamboat Annie into crazy on you
Great reaction! Ann Wilson has such an incredible voice! I saw them twice in the early 80s and they put on such a fantastic show! Love “Dog and Butterfly”👍🏻🐶🦋
They played the hell out of this song on the radio back then, but you just couldnt get tired of it!
Roger Fisher on lead guitar. Nancy played mostly rhythm and acoustic.
I love how the girls sound like the Sirens in Greek myth calling the sailors . ❤
Sister Ann has that vocal power, and she's letting fans know she's found a smooth operator play for real. Yeah, girl, I understand you found
the magic. Great song, guys, with excellent vocals, and AirplayBeats commentary.

In 2012 Led Zeppelin won a Kennedy Center Award. Heart performed Stairway to Heaven flawlessly. Robert Plant cried.
Whoa hold your horses baby this one is a masterpiece love you guys
The groove of this song. Rhythm section on point.
I grew up with Hearts tunes. Love this one especially.
When she sings this live it’s like she’s not even trying she so awesome🎉

Reminds me of 8 track players, Jensen 6x9 speakers, and my Mustang with Glasspacks and summer nights in Texas out at the lake.

Heart was and is something special this is one of my favorite of their songs.
The Magic Man was real. Ann Wilson fell in deeply in love with the lead guitarist’s brother who would manage the band.
Heart is sooo talented!! Love them!!!
Monster hit back in the day!
I saw Heart in 1978 in Lake Charles La. I was able to sneak in the concert with my photographer buddy who had a press pass for the local newspaper. They blew my mind Ann singing was off the charts.
SING CHILD SING (live from TV Special 1976) Go see them live, she has a BIGGGGG voice.

Heart had so many hits. You guys have alot more to hear. Anne Wilson has one of the most powerful voices you will ever hear.
Her voice is clean and powerful…
This was always my favorite Heart tune, so good
They are so incredible live🫶🏽
Che, there are so many great songs for two of you two discover it's impossible to suggest them all. You guys have 20+ years worth of really amazing music to catch up on.
Still one of my fave songs of all time. Rock on.

Very nuanced vocal style.
Excellent reaction.
Anne Wilson rock's greatest female voice. Annie Halam Prog's greatest female voice. Two magnificent singers.
That song was all over the radio when it came out.
I guess you're talking about how pure her tone is vocally, when you say "soft" -- to me, she's such a powerhouse, I can't see 'soft'. This song is so overfamiliar to me, it's great to watch these reactions to help hear it anew. Early Heart was so spectacular.
How about smooth and in perfect control? Grace Slick was another perfect control female voice 20 years earlier.
@@AttorneyBCollins100%
Believe me, when I first heard this on the radio in '75, I went straight to the record store. I was 17.
Saw them in concert a couple of times in the 80s! Always a solid show! Saw them with Peter Frampton opening, that was a fun show! Now on to George Harrison La & Chi!
Nice reactions!
I remember how much we all loved this album when it came out...FYI, they loved Led Zep...And it's no wonder that they were the ones to do Stairway to Heaven at the Led Zep tribute.
"Well, I'll be damned." That about sums it up.
All thing Live from Heart’s Rock Hall induction is a must see!
Her voice is full ; ) great song! Great reaction
5:51 The look on y’all’s faces when the Minimoog synthesizer comes in 🤣🤣🤣 and 6:04 “man, this is dope.” Yes, yes it is!!! Especially when they bring it down to the bass that’s playing. Gives my eardrums a cool vibe.
Dolly Parton and Ann Wilson just released this duet. Nancy still on lead guitar
The entire album is worthy of your listen. Classic record.. one you add to your stuck on an island list
Another great band from Seattle
A small part of my long journey through the BEST “Rock and Roll” years ever is enjoying watching you two connect with the same music I love!
What a great reaction. Makes me listen more closely to a song I well know. You guys are wonderful.
The Woodstock 2 performance is a good example of their live sound. Annie was beautiful, and " Little Queen" was especially great.
Little Queen is so underrated. That breakdown in the middle could have been on a Pink Floyd or Rush or Alice in Chains piece.
Heck yeah…been waiting for this one. Cold groove in the middle. 🥶
Crazy on You and Rockin Heaven Down are 2 more rocking songs from Heart.
I sent this to Roger Fisher. Love your reactions! Keep up the good work..
Early HEART were one of the best back in the day! Glad you guys are checking them out!
One advantage you guys as "reactors" have over us old-timers is you have had someone recommend these songs to you so you can put them on and really listen to them for the first time. In my case, I would usually hear a new song on the radio without knowing who or what it was. And sometimes I'd turn the radio on in the middle of something I never heard before. And then I'd have to wait for who knows how long to hear it again! The only way to control the situation was to buy the album. And many times the only songs I really cared for were the ones they played on the radio anyway! But sometimes, you play the album when you got home, and then you would realize that there's much more to it then meets the eye (or the radio). Dreamboat Annie was one of those albums. I was STUNNED at how good each and every song was. Those who didn't buy the album never knew what they were missing. It was a great time to be a teenager, but what you heard was really left up to the Program Directors. There's good and bad about that too. Thankfully we hd 4-5 rock stations in the Bay Area. I wore out the push buttons on my Kraco car radio!
Another outstanding post guys, Ty. / saw them around 80/81 & they were just awesome. True artist
Been watching you two for a few months and i have to say you keep getting better. I love to see when you both fully let your personalities show through. Love the content too!
I just love the electric guitar on the first four Heart albums. Nancy's voice is just magic how it cuts through so effortlessly. Terrific production.
Anne’s voice.
As a teenager, Ann told her mother that she was going to be rich and famous someday. Her mother laughed.
Ann Wilson is the greatest female rock singer of all time.
Imagine being 13 year old ,front row in front of speakers in a small arena, I was hooked
