She sounds just like the record. After 40 years she can still deliver the goods. She is the real deal. When she recorded Betty Davis, the producer just hit the 'record' button and she sang. Absolutely no studio tricks involved. A wonderful talent.
Kim Carnes was the epitome of “cool” in the 80’s! And she’s still got it going on....even after all these years! She just has that “cool factor”, no matter what she does! She was beautiful back in the day and she is beautiful now! Kim Carnes, you “ROCK”!!! ❤️
its a shame she doesn't tour Britain. its the only song I know as soon as I heard when very young. it was like what a voice she's got. maybe I should see bonnie tyler the british version of kim carnes
Envelheceu, más tá uma velhinha linda! Uma pena que esse maldito tempo também fez com ela o que faz com absolutamente TUDO o que é orgânico e vivo! Más continua cantando muuuuuiiiiiitoooooooo! E o que chama a atenção é que, quando ela canta ao vivo, mesmo depois de décadas, se percebe facilmente que é a Kim Carnes cantando a sua própria música! Não se precisa vê-la para saber que é ela! Basta ouvi-la cantar, mesmo sem enxergá-la, para saber que é ela cantando! A sua voz não alterou quase nada em função das décadas que se passaram! É inconfundível! E também o fato dela não precisar que sua voz seja alterada eletronicamente para que ela cante na gravação do disco/cd, como sabemos que ocorre muito por aí, com uma porrada de... "cantores"! Sua linda voz rouca, más, devido ao seu talento, perfeitamente apropriada para as músicas que canta, continua mesmo após décadas, praticamente idêntica a quando era a jovem cantora que gravou "Bette Davis eyes" em 1981!
I have always loved Kim Carnes' music. And she is a beautiful person. Thank you for pursuing music and giving your voice to the world for us all to be entertained. Much love. - Jim
somethings just get better with age. loads of people say older people cant sing like they used to. they are wrong. kim carnes is just one of loads of singers that sound exactly the same as they did over 30 years ago. im british and i love to see her. her husky voice made her the singer she is today.
I have 49 years and today I booked my day to hear My LPs Kim Carnes. In years 80 and 90 my life was watered by brilliant voice Kim Carnes and continues until today. At the time I studied and worked in São Paulo-Brazil and despite not having participated in a fan club, I always had Kim in my heart ... Kim, I wish you, your family and your friends be very happy! Are these little words of thanks because you made my life happier ... A big hug for all vocês! (Sorry, my English and poor and I I used Google translator to write this paragraph)
I remember as a kid growing up in Trinidad and Tobago in the '80s, aspiring to be a vocalist, I used to eavesdrop on my neighbor's radio, we didn't have one of our own, and "Better Davis Eyes" was one of the songs that touched me, so every time I hear it, it's like I time travel into a happy innocent nostalgic place. Now I'm grown and a great vocalist myself, thank you, Kim Carnes. *hint* I see her sipping the tea, vocalists take note
Warren - I can fix you up with my granny if you want. She likes younger guys, but she wears depends undergarments, so you might have to change her diapers on the date.
Muito obrigado Kin Carnes por fazer parte da minha infância através dessas suas canções maravilhosas. Eu tinha 5 anos apenas quando essa música começou a tocar nas rádios e ficava encantado quando tocava essa música. Pena que esse tempinho lindo da minha vida passou muito rápido. Hoje o que me resta é saudade.
Da, îmi aduce aminte de nopțile de nostalgie în strălucirea ei , muzică veritabilă de top ten din clasamentul revistei BILLBOARD USA , a fost nr.one în topul vânzărilor 1980 BILLBOARD USA ȘI MELODY Mecher în UK.LONDON, Europa !! Dj .Andrei Voiculescu a prezentat acest top ten la postul de radio EUROPA liberă din MÜNCHEN GERMANIA ❤❤🎉🎉✌️ ❤
I love Kim Carnes. Voyeur was one of my favorite albums of all time, the soundtrack for that year it came out. Bette Davis' Goddaughter told me Bette Davis LOVED this song, but when she first heard it she said, "Oh that poor woman. That voice!"
Perfect performance and still got it going on and still love her voice just like back in the summer of 1980 when I first heard "More Love" originally done by Smokey Robinson and the Miracles back in the 1960s. Brings back great memories.
Bello recuerdo escuchar a Kim Carnes . Con su prrsonalidad y voz preciosa con su grupo musical fantastico .sin olvidar sus ojos SALUDOS desde tepoztlan , mor cuernavaca.
Always loved this song and the keyboard lick was so catchy..... used on a 7up pac man commercial. I remember seeing it as a child this is an amazing acoustic version.
Way to go Kim!!! You’re still sexy and rocking!!!! I am in love with you since 1981 when I heard Betty Davis Eyes for the 1st time on the radio! ❤❤❤❤ Forever loving you from Canada 🇨🇦
H Straz a raspy voice like this cant get any better or worse. same goes for bonnie tyler her voice hasnt changed the late 70's. you dont get singers that sound like this very often

No, very wrong tones (f.e. 7:18).

Maravillosa 6:53
Kim Carnes' voice is pure magic.
That raspy voice........LOVE IT.
Wow Kim you still have it all these years later! Excellent job!
Kim,ILove You! You cheered me up all those lonely times! THANK YOU!
❤I LoveYou!
Great talent. I’m so glad I can go back to such great music.
in June I of 81 we herd Kim carnes sing Bettie Davis at a construction site everyone working stopped and listened
Wow! She still sounds really good. Amazing. Timeless music
she's got lots of personality and her voice is always tinted by the same passion! Respect Kim forever.
Song with a story... excellent. Kim still delivers!
She´s awesome,her voice rocks!!!
its a shame she doesn't tour Britain. its the only song I know as soon as I heard when very young. it was like what a voice she's got. maybe I should see bonnie tyler the british version of kim carnes
still beautifull...same great voice
Hard to believe this was a hit over 30 years! Kim hasn't changed a bit. And the song still oozes with sensuality.

Shes fantastic!! Looks fantastic too. BDE is positively one of the best songs of ALL time!
Kim Carns has made her place in our culture even if you don't like her music.
One benefit of having such a raspy voice- she sounds the same as she did 30 years ago
What a classy and talented lady!! I love this song so much.

Love to see her performing with Rod Stewart again. That would be the greatest raspy-voice act.
Roddy, rowdy, raspy ratchets, Ramon Rojos
rod steward an kim carnes sing together
You forget Roger Taylor
Man I thought she'd lower the key as a lot of singers do when they get older. But not Kim! What a great singer!!! Love this song!
Way ta go Kim ..I loved this song from the beginning!Guess what..Kim still does this song so well..that husky-raspy sounding voice..Love it!

Wow, she sounds great - and that guitarist is stunning - have never heard him before, but he played it beautifully.
80s music is unbeatable......just wow!!!!!
Beautiful, she's in my top five best singles of the 80's. Wonderful memories. Cheers

The hair on my arms and back of my neck stands up when I hear and see this woman. Wow, just wow.
68 years old here!!! Wow!!! Never thought I'd be so attracted to a 68 year old women.

Que voz incrível, singular, perfeita, sexy...
A rouquidão da voz dela é muito sexy
Aw ,a man after mine on ❤️. Well said people.
One benefit of having such a raspy voice- she sounds the same as she did 30 years ago
H Straz a raspy voice like this cant get any better or worse. same goes for bonnie tyler her voice hasnt changed the late 70's. you dont get singers that sound like this very often
H Straz 0
M
She sucked then too.
Same instance with Richard Butler of The Psychedelic Furs. He still sounds the same after all these years!
Edward White You have no idea what you're talking about. This was the second most successful song of the entire 1980s in the United States.
Unfaded epic song, I love you Kim Carnes...
