Yeh agree. In that live performance it's also good to see Annie front and center where she should be, not hidden away in the shadows and far away up on a balcony like they did in this music video.
This is late 80's and a bit of a comeback for Heart. Maybe 12 years after the 1st album which was in '75.. Great song. I 1st saw them live in '71 or '72 at 'The Heart of Gold' Valentines Day Ball at the Bayshore Inn Hotel in Vancouver and have followed them ever since. Great memories. I'd suggest 'These Dreams' next so you can hear Nancy sing one. Cheers.
Floor Jansen has covered this song meanwhile 2 times, so that alone should say that its really a great song. And as an old Heart fan since they released Barracuda i also love the stuff from this period.
Accurate assessment of their later sound.I like this though I also prefer the 1970’s rock versions with great guitar work!You will love doing their rocker called Crazy On You. Later greats of which one song’s lyrics were written by Bernie Taupin, Elton John’s long time lyricist, is These Dreams . Another later good one is Never!
This song is a cover and was not written by the Wilson sisters, which may be one big reason that it sounds different. But they have an awful lot of great hits that I'm sure you and we will love.
If you liked Magic Man and Barracuda better (me too) - you need to check out Crazy On You next, its back in that classic rock genre and is a certified banger.
Crazy On You Live ... Love Nancy's intro and her high kick. This version ---> Heart - Crazy On You (Live, 1978) ......and put the fan on to feel the breeze going through Nancy's hair. lol.
Just to be clear, this is a cover version. Heart DID NOT write this song. Alone was written by Billy Steinberg and Tom Kelly, who recorded it under the name i-Ten on their 1983 album Taking a Cold Look
The saddest part of this video is that the record companies and video director had a meeting behind the bands back, and "they" decided that Ann was "too heavy" to be fully seen. So all of her camera shots were taken from either close up of her face or from far away. They didn't want to show her from a full body angle. After the video was released, the band was livid that they did this to her. 😠
Beautiful harmonies, gritty vocals. "Alone" is a dipthong, 2 or more distinct vowel sounds. This word also has 2 distinct consonants, L & N. She somehow manages to catch each letter, but bites off the N before it gets nasally. Exceptional control! These women are phenomenal!!
Their albums had plenty of hard rockers, but Capitol Records was only interested in Top 40 hits so they sent primarily power ballads out to radio as singles. It's too bad because the best material from that era are the tracks that didn't get released as singles. Brigade as a whole was one of the heaviest albums they ever did but the four singles were all whiny power ballads. It hurt their rock cred for awhile.
A much more pop sound in this era than their 70's material.Though it sounds good, I prefer their 70's sound. Floor Jansen does a good cover of this song
Their song Crazy on You was the song that got them their initial record contract and is also on their debut album Dreamboat Annie with Magic Man. I think you might like that one too.
Another great one by them is their "Stairway to Heaven - Kennedy Center Honors" specifically honoring Led Zeppelin at the Kennedy Center. However, if you react to it be aware that there are chopped versions that cut out some of Ann's performance; thus, be sure to listen to the 7:59 FULL version.
Ann and Nancy hated their videos because they had no creative control. To really witness their greatness, find live performances! Their Rock Hall Induction concert is Amazing.
Some.other hit songs from Heart,"Crazy On You", "Straight On" early Heart from the 70's Look for the live performances of both songs.."AllI Want To Do Is Make Love To You" and "These Dreams" and "Never" among some others from the 1980's...Great Reaction by the way..
As interesting aside "Alone" was written by Billy Steinberg and Tom Kelly, who recorded it under the name i-Ten in 1983. Heart's version came in out in 1987. Celine Dion covered it in 2007. Not sure many ever heard the original version, but at least they made some money with the songwriting rights.
Great reaction...this just made my Friday!! Can never go wrong with Heart & the wonderful Wilson sisters. This is the quintessential 80's power ballad - I've loved it since my sister came home with the cassette of Bad Animals back in 1987. She was also a frequenter of MuchMusic & recorded sooooo many videos - I watched this dozens of times. Like many, I had such a mad crush on Ann & Nancy! That note Ann hits will always send shivers down my spine! I agree - I much prefer the 70's stuff, but Heart definitely owned much of the 80's as well. Another track to check to hear Ann's impeccable voice & Nancy's guitar prowess is Dream Of The Archer/Sylvan Song (from Little Queen - same album as Barracuda). Cheers.
A great cover you should check out of this song is Floor Jansen of Nightwish doing her own rendition of this. Keep up the great reactions, love that your reactions are soo genuine.
Heart was originally formed by lead guitarist Roger Fisher and vocalist Ann Wilson, before Ann's sister Nancy Wilson joined on guitar w/ Steve Fossen (bass), Howard Leese (keyboards) and Mike DeRosier (drums)... This was the band that broke big in 1976 w/ 'Dreamboat Annie'... and then the album 'Little Queen' in 1977 that had 'Barracuda' as a single. However, after Roger Fisher and Nancy Wilson broke up as a couple, the band fired Roger Fisher after his behavior onstage got worse (He actually thanked the sisters for kicking him out because he was devastated by the breakup & couldn't be around Nancy anymore). By the early 80's, both Steve Fossen and Mike DeRosier were fired from Heart as their popularity declined... The band released 'Passionworks' in 1983 w/ Mark Andes (bass) and Denny Carmassi (drums)... but it failed commercially and Heart was dropped by their record label. At this point, vocalist Ann Wilson had gained weight and did not look like the slim woman she was in the 70's... so, that became a liability in the music industry in the MTV era, where image was becoming everything... Capitol Records offered Heart a record contract in 1985, but it came w/ huge compromises - The band had to be relaunched w/ a more 'glam' 80's style makeover w/ big hair and flashy outfits... Also, the label would assign songwriters to write songs for Heart to sing and perform in the studio... and then, Ann Wilson's plus-size frame would be hidden from view in the music videos and Nancy Wilson would be the attractive figure to market Heart to the MTV generation. It worked though... the self-titled 'Heart' album in 1985 became their biggest hit, selling 5x platinum... #1 on the US charts... massive hit singles - 'What about love' ... 'These dreams' (sung by Nancy Wilson)... 'Never'... 🔥🔥🤘🤘 Heart's 1987 album 'Bad animals' sold 3x platinum w/ 'Alone' becoming a huge single, along w/ 'Who will you run to'... and their album 'Brigade' (1990) sold 2x platinum w/ the hit single - 'All I wanna do is make love to you' Heart wanted to take creative control of their music in the 90's w/ their 1993 album 'Desire walks on'... which sold gold (half million copies) in the US but the grunge rock era decimated their popularity. After an acoustic live album 'The road home' in 1995, Heart split up. Ann and Nancy Wilson reformed Heart in 2002 w/ new members and released a live album 'Alive in Seattle' in 2003 and subsequent studio albums since.
Another great Heart reaction! They're so amazing i could watch reactions to them all day. "If looks could kill" is another song that I've always enjoyed.
Crazy On You Live ... Love Nancy's intro and her high kick. This version ---> Heart - Crazy On You (Live, 1978) ......and put the fan on to feel the breeze going through Nancy's hair. lol.
Funny you mentioned Journey, they were often referred to as a female Led Zeppelin. And when Ann Wilson sang Stairway to Heaven in honor of Led Zeppelin at the Kennedy Arts Center she brought the house down! Best live cover of that song ever recorded!
They played the 6 Flags amusement park here in Atlanta on that tour. Was one of the best shows I’ve ever seen. And yes, I’ve had a major crush on the Wilson sisters since I was 13. And to be honest, I still do. They have been estranged for a few years, doing their own things, but have just announced a 2024 tour.
What a voice Ann has Believe it or not my favorite Heart song is sung by Nancy called These Dreams another great song and video is All I want to do is make love to you, Theres also an incredible live performance of Crazy on you Nancy going wild on acoustic guitar Shes probably the sexiest guitar player ever :) Rocks it in this song
This song was my introduction to heart as a 12/13 year old impressionable boy in the Seattle area. So, it goes without saying, this is my favorite Heart song but having delved into their body of work, some of their earlier songs were definitely purer, more them. No matter, these two ladies have just AMAZING voices and blend so well! Ann obviously gets more attention as the lead and deservedly so. Her voice, range and control is off the charts! And this song actually accentuates this beautifully. Listen as she holds out the elevated final note of the word "alone". It's so easy to allow the sound to tail off because it's not an easy note/consonant to hold that long. But she absolutely NAILS it!! But let's not sleep on Nancy here. If you listen to the harmony in the background, that's Nancy skying to not only hit but hold those high notes! Plus, she plays the piano, the guitar masterfully...such talented sisters who have blessed us with their music. Even more proud that they came from my home area!
Ann is a one of a kind vocalist. 80s changed from the 70s....personnel. Lots more to check out from them both 70s and 80s. Might checkout "All I Want to Do Is Make Love to You", "Straight On" and "Bad Animals"
the 80's version of Heart was more vocal driven and less guitar driven because their previous 3 albums under performered and the record label forced them to use writers instead of writing the songs themselves. Also, Ann had put on some weight on the record label wanted to put Nancy more in the forefront. You can really tell in the video where they keep showing Nancy and really only show Ann from the neck up.
Never is also a great song by them. No question Ann Wilson is one of the greatest singers ever. She's still performing tho not sure with her sister. This performance was 🔥🔥🔥🔥. They did a magnificent cover of Stairway to Heaven tribute to Led Zeppelin in 2012. They killed it, not one but surprised.
Phil, you have to keep in mind the time of the music. Alone was the 80’s. Ann and Nancy always stayed true to the music trends. A must is “These Dreams - Live from Seattle” Nancy on lead, and I’m sure y’all heard it.
With this song you can definitely see a huge shift from the 70s psychadelic sound, to the 80s hair band rock, but brilliant. They've changed and stayed relevant to over 4 decades and generations. Just when it couldn't get better, they covered Stairway to Heaven at the Kennedy Center in front of Led Zeppelin, of course Ann killed it!
Alright this may well be out of the box as such, but we have Heart and Fleetwood Mac who hands down by my lights top the list of best groups with Female lead singers. Though there be a number of very good others. For me a group though relatively short lived. A solid third place will be any song off the first two albums of October Project. A highly talented and slyly haunting sound and alterative experience. Who by some ill will of fate fell through the cracks and didn't get the recognition they surely deserved. As well as the contusing solo talent of the lead singer Mary Fahl. Unique to say the least. Thank You.
❤ Heart's best always seemed to have some romance to the song. Still my favorite has to be All I Wanna Do Is Make Love To You. 1990. Ann's voice is never more powerful, other than maybe Stairway. I'm guessing you may have heard it, but maybe not. One of the best stories ever in a song. Heart wrenching.
She probably heard the song before from one of the early seasons of the American Idol show , where the female contestant won the show that year due to her good performance to this awesome Heart's hit song .
This is actually a cover song. The original was written by i-Ten en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alone_(i-Ten_song) -- Billy Steinberg, one half of i-Ten, has also written tons of hits for other artists. He achieved his greatest success in the 1980s with songwriting partner Tom Kelly; together they wrote or co-wrote the No. 1 hits "Like a Virgin" by Madonna (1984), "True Colors" by Cyndi Lauper (1986), "Eternal Flame" by the Bangles (1989), "So Emotional" by Whitney Houston (1987) and "Alone" (covered by Heart in 1987). They also wrote or co-wrote the hit songs "I Drove All Night" (recorded by various artists, initially recorded by Roy Orbison in 1987 but first released by Cyndi Lauper in 1989), "I Touch Myself" by Divinyls (1990), and "I'll Stand by You" by The Pretenders (1994).
So if you put the word "EARLY" before the band name HEART is easy my top 10 favorite bands with EARLY RUSH, UFO, PRIEST, etc. Magic Man is "Earliest" HEART being from the first album " Dreamboat Annie" which I'll say along with the album Little Queen " are 2 of my top 20 albums I think!?! Hmm 🧐. Anywho CRAZY ON YOU also on the first album is the MOST ESSENTIAL HEART SONG of HEART songs! Wanna vote?? Peace 🕊️☮️♾️😎
Cu toate că piesa celor de la Heart este un cover este mai elaborată și mai preferată decât originalul. Iată originalul ua-cam.com/video/KdgUNHYWu_8/v-deo.htmlsi=q8-rIAj04LqOYo3O
Ya know what? I'm gonna give everyone a jewel. Look up Barracuda with Alice in chains, Nancy Wilson, and Greta Wilson!!! Do it!!! I would pay highly to see this live!!! Hundreds!!!
I’ve heard this song & saw this video a buncha times. Now I've recenrlt learned that this is actually a cover! What? Apparently it was originally done by some band (I think a band) I-Ten in 1983, then done by Valerie Stevenson & John Stamos (it’s, uncle Jesse) in 85 for the show Dreams. Then Heart released this in 1987. So what Heart did was add “‘Til now” in the chorus, Anne’s epic high note, & a slightly different guitar solo (though John Stanos’ solo is pretty fire too). Yeah, put this in the category of “songs you didn’t know are covers.”
Can you please react to AC/DC Let there be rock live in Toronto Canada 2003 SARS relief PLEASE ITS SOOO GOOD AND SHE'S GOT THE JACK ANGUS HAS A SUPRISE FOR THE CROWD😂😂 I know you've already done the song but this is a clearer version❤
This Was There Glam Metal Power Ballad Song and There Big Hair Of The Mid 80’s Hair Bands ! There Earlier Stuff Was Late 70’s Early 80’s Rock Sound Then Came The Glam Metal Sound
I know that this is THE version of "Alone". However, this is not the original. A group called "i-Ten" recorded it first in 1983. The people behind "i-Ten" were Billy Steinberg and Tom Kelly, who also wrote several major hits for other artists. "Like a Virgin" for Madonna, "True Colors" for Cindy Lauper, "Eternal Flame" for the Bangles", "I'll Stand by You" for the Pretenders", to name a few.
Excellente réaction, bravo à tous les deux pour cette chanson qui me laisse sans voix à chaque fois. Par comparaison, écoutez la reprise/hommage de Floor Jensen ( la chanteuse du groupe NIGHTWIST ) qui pourrez vous clouer elle aussi, juste voix piano, à écouter absolument, vous ne serez pas déçu. Bonne écoute et à bientôt.....
I really hope one day you guys cover a Nancy Wilson HEART song. Being that she had the biggest hit the band had. THESE DREAMS. C'mon guys...you are missing treasures if ya ignore Nancy!!!
My favorite Heart song. Ann and Nancy are a rock force to be reckoned with. Such amazing talent all around.
I know you are also Nightwish (Floor fans). She did a slowed down cover of this. Also stunning.
Check out their version of Unchained Melody….trust me 😉
Live in Seattle version of Alone (with Ann on lead) and These Dreams (with Nancy on lead) is fire! Musically stripped down, but vocally brilliant.
Yeh agree. In that live performance it's also good to see Annie front and center where she should be, not hidden away in the shadows and far away up on a balcony like they did in this music video.
Alone Seattle coming next!
This is late 80's and a bit of a comeback for Heart. Maybe 12 years after the 1st album which was in '75.. Great song. I 1st saw them live in '71 or '72 at 'The Heart of Gold' Valentines Day Ball at the Bayshore Inn Hotel in Vancouver and have followed them ever since. Great memories.

They did and excellent job.❤❤
If you haven't checked out Aerosmith they're incredible too❤

Later greats of which one song’s lyrics were written by Bernie Taupin, Elton John’s long time lyricist, is These Dreams . Another later good one is Never!
This song is a cover and was not written by the Wilson sisters, which may be one big reason that it sounds different. But they have an awful lot of great hits that I'm sure you and we will love.
"What About Love?" Ann Wison has very powerful vocals in that song.I hope ya'l get a request to hear that one also
I 2nd this motion! 🔥
It's a better song than this one
@@davidpalahinjak8954 3rd it!!
🔥
If you liked Magic Man and Barracuda better (me too) - you need to check out Crazy On You next, its back in that classic rock genre and is a certified banger.
Crazy On You Live ... Love Nancy's intro and her high kick. This version ---> Heart - Crazy On You (Live, 1978) ......and put the fan on to feel the breeze going through Nancy's hair. lol.
‘These dreams’ live in Seattle is amazing. Nancy on lead vocals. Stunning live performance
My favorite version of "These Dreams."
@@RonaldCanfield-m2rsame. It’s just perfect
Ann Wilson - best female rock vocalist, no contest! Forget the rest!
Talent like this is IMPOSSIBLE to find these days!!❤
Just to be clear, this is a cover version. Heart DID NOT write this song.
Alone was written by Billy Steinberg and Tom Kelly, who recorded it under the name i-Ten on their 1983 album Taking a Cold Look
Woman brings chills to my arms everytime i hear her sing. Only one to ever do that.
You should hear Heart’s song, “These Dreams”. Perhaps my absolute favorite by them.
Hard to believe the lead singer is currently on the charts with the Disturbed duet and still sounds awesome some 30 years later. Crazy.
" These Dreams " is a winner ......with Nancy [ the blond ] as primary vocalist .
Their only number 1 hit
The saddest part of this video is that the record companies and video director had a meeting behind the bands back, and "they" decided that Ann was "too heavy" to be fully seen. So all of her camera shots were taken from either close up of her face or from far away. They didn't want to show her from a full body angle. After the video was released, the band was livid that they did this to her. 😠
yeah i remember that! it was so wrong!
She was always beautiful, no matter her weight, and she has one of the very best voices in rock.
@@markmurphy558could be the best female rock voice❤
Could be? Unequivocally the best female rock voice.
Imagine they picked on her weight then... LOOK at is seen today😮
Beautiful harmonies, gritty vocals. "Alone" is a dipthong, 2 or more distinct vowel sounds. This word also has 2 distinct consonants, L & N. She somehow manages to catch each letter, but bites off the N before it gets nasally. Exceptional control! These women are phenomenal!!
This was a huge 80s song. During the 80s, they were all about the power ballad, which was very different from their 70's songs.

Heart Is so amazing,so tearfull
A much more pop sound in this era than their 70's material.Though it sounds good, I prefer their 70's sound. Floor Jansen does a good cover of this song
This song is a cover as well
A magnificent duo. Doesn't get much better than these two.
You should check out Floor Jansen's cover of this she made from her home studio during the pandemic lockdowns. It is epic.
Their song Crazy on You was the song that got them their initial record contract and is also on their debut album Dreamboat Annie with Magic Man. I think you might like that one too.

Yep! You can find out reaction to that here:

Definitely one of the best voices in rock ever
This and These Dreams are two of the most beautiful power ballads ever
Some.other hit songs from Heart,"Crazy On You", "Straight On" early Heart from the 70's Look for the live performances of both songs.."AllI Want To Do Is Make Love To You" and "These Dreams" and "Never" among some others from the 1980's...Great Reaction by the way..
Heard Heart do this live. Ann absolutely nailed it. Even more impressive live.
Live Seattle coming next!
As interesting aside "Alone" was written by Billy Steinberg and Tom Kelly, who recorded it under the name i-Ten in 1983. Heart's version came in out in 1987. Celine Dion covered it in 2007. Not sure many ever heard the original version, but at least they made some money with the songwriting rights.
Ann Wilson top 5 female vocalist in history....Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, Celine Dion, and Amy Lee from Evanescence being the other 4.
One of the best power ballads ever! Great reaction, guys! Grettings from Spain!
Thanks so much!!
Saw Heart with Jason Bonham, just after Heart did Zep's Stairway at the Kennedys. Ann did a stripped down acapella version of this. Was amazing
Great reaction...this just made my Friday!! Can never go wrong with Heart & the wonderful Wilson sisters. This is the quintessential 80's power ballad - I've loved it since my sister came home with the cassette of Bad Animals back in 1987.

Another track to check to hear Ann's impeccable voice & Nancy's guitar prowess is Dream Of The Archer/Sylvan Song (from Little Queen - same album as Barracuda). Cheers.
You gotta check out Crazy On You from their 70s era, and pretty much everything in their 80s era.
A great cover you should check out of this song is Floor Jansen of Nightwish doing her own rendition of this. Keep up the great reactions, love that your reactions are soo genuine.
Thank you!
Great song! Powerful vocals on this! OMG that BIG poofy 80s hair! 🤭
Heart was originally formed by lead guitarist Roger Fisher and vocalist Ann Wilson, before Ann's sister Nancy Wilson joined on guitar w/ Steve Fossen (bass), Howard Leese (keyboards) and Mike DeRosier (drums)...

Heart's 1987 album 'Bad animals' sold 3x platinum w/ 'Alone' becoming a huge single, along w/ 'Who will you run to'... and their album 'Brigade' (1990) sold 2x platinum w/ the hit single - 'All I wanna do is make love to you'

Ann and Nancy Wilson reformed Heart in 2002 w/ new members and released a live album 'Alive in Seattle' in 2003 and subsequent studio albums since.
Heart’s early days were heavily influenced by Led Zeppelin. You could almost imagine Robert Plant singing some of their music.
You guys really need to check out the live version of this song from Seattle 2013. Goosebumps and then some!!!!
Another great Heart reaction! They're so amazing i could watch reactions to them all day. "If looks could kill" is another song that I've always enjoyed.
Crazy On You Live ... Love Nancy's intro and her high kick. This version ---> Heart - Crazy On You (Live, 1978) ......and put the fan on to feel the breeze going through Nancy's hair. lol.
react to marcelito doing this song will blow your mind
Funny you mentioned Journey, they were often referred to as a female Led Zeppelin. And when Ann Wilson sang Stairway to Heaven in honor of Led Zeppelin at the Kennedy Arts Center she brought the house down! Best live cover of that song ever recorded!
1987 was such an amazing year for music and a Albums. I mean there is some incredible ones that came out in 1987.
They played the 6 Flags amusement park here in Atlanta on that tour. Was one of the best shows I’ve ever seen. And yes, I’ve had a major crush on the Wilson sisters since I was 13. And to be honest, I still do. They have been estranged for a few years, doing their own things, but have just announced a 2024 tour.
Heart described themselves was having a split personality.
Floor Jansen from Nightwsh does a cover of this on her you tube page. It is so fricken great, would love to see you two check it out❤❤❤Thanks
Heart (live in Seattle) does a more acoustic and softer version of Alone and These Dreams, that was when they were older. I personally like better.
Anne is the Steve Perry equivalent for lead female vocalists no contest.
I recommend Dream of the Archer (studio version). Ann's voice at the end gives me chills . . .
What a voice Ann has Believe it or not my favorite Heart song is sung by Nancy called These Dreams another great song and video is All I want to do is make love to you, Theres also an incredible live performance of Crazy on you Nancy going wild on acoustic guitar Shes probably the sexiest guitar player ever :) Rocks it in this song
Ann Wilson and Mike Reno of the band 'Loverboy' did a great duet in the 80's,Almost Paradise,they sound great together on it.
They did that duet for the movie “Footloose” soundtrack. It was a big hit.
Great reaction! These Dreams is an awesome song. Check it out!
This song was my introduction to heart as a 12/13 year old impressionable boy in the Seattle area. So, it goes without saying, this is my favorite Heart song but having delved into their body of work, some of their earlier songs were definitely purer, more them.

Barracuda - 70s look & Alone is pure 80s
Can tell its the 80s with big hair :) It can be argued that Ann has the best female voice in rock
Saw them in concert 4 times, around the U.S. One of the solid bands to come out of the Seattle area. They've stood the test of time!!!
Dude. We get it. You’re swoll. Put the guns away
that's right - this is a song that almost everyone has heard, but not everyone knows who actually sings!
Ann is a one of a kind vocalist. 80s changed from the 70s....personnel. Lots more to check out from them both 70s and 80s. Might checkout "All I Want to Do Is Make Love to You", "Straight On" and "Bad Animals"
First time listening?😂😂 no.. stop acting
Will You Be There (In The Morning) by Heart! 🔥
the 80's version of Heart was more vocal driven and less guitar driven because their previous 3 albums under performered and the record label forced them to use writers instead of writing the songs themselves. Also, Ann had put on some weight on the record label wanted to put Nancy more in the forefront. You can really tell in the video where they keep showing Nancy and really only show Ann from the neck up.

A must is “These Dreams - Live from Seattle” Nancy on lead, and I’m sure y’all heard it.
Who Will You Run To by Heart! 🔥
What About Love by Heart! 🔥
With this song you can definitely see a huge shift from the 70s psychadelic sound, to the 80s hair band rock, but brilliant. They've changed and stayed relevant to over 4 decades and generations. Just when it couldn't get better, they covered Stairway to Heaven at the Kennedy Center in front of Led Zeppelin, of course Ann killed it!
Beautiful Piano! ♥️🔥
Their only song to reach number 1 is These Dreams.....which Nancy sang lead. Not only a really good guitarist but also a really good singer.
This song (3 weeks) and "These Dreams" (1 week) both reached number 1.
This song showcases the vocals better than earlier songs, but the songs of the 70's were better, in my opinion.
Alright this may well be out of the box as such, but we have Heart and Fleetwood Mac who hands down by my lights top the list of best groups with Female lead singers. Though there be a number of very good others. For me a group though relatively short lived. A solid third place will be any song off the first two albums of October Project. A highly talented and slyly haunting sound and alterative experience. Who by some ill will of fate fell through the cracks and didn't get the recognition they surely deserved. As well as the contusing solo talent of the lead singer Mary Fahl. Unique to say the least. Thank You.
Duet by Mike Reno [ Loverboy ] and Ann Wilson [ Heart ] ....ALMOST PARADISE.... From the original Footloose soundtrack
Never by Heart! 😎🔥🤘🎸
The 80s were the best times of my life
Yeah. They were reaching the 80's music.
Three more awesome Heart songs are: 1) There's The Girl 2) Stranded 3) I Want You So Bad. Enjoy!
❤ Heart's best always seemed to have some romance to the song. Still my favorite has to be All I Wanna Do Is Make Love To You. 1990. Ann's voice is never more powerful, other than maybe Stairway. I'm guessing you may have heard it, but maybe not. One of the best stories ever in a song. Heart wrenching.
All time banger!
Ann Wilson is still touring and put out her album and she is Killing it!
She probably heard the song before from one of the early seasons of the American Idol show , where the female contestant won the show that year due to her good performance to this awesome Heart's hit song .
This is actually a cover song. The original was written by i-Ten en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alone_(i-Ten_song) -- Billy Steinberg, one half of i-Ten, has also written tons of hits for other artists. He achieved his greatest success in the 1980s with songwriting partner Tom Kelly; together they wrote or co-wrote the No. 1 hits "Like a Virgin" by Madonna (1984), "True Colors" by Cyndi Lauper (1986), "Eternal Flame" by the Bangles (1989), "So Emotional" by Whitney Houston (1987) and "Alone" (covered by Heart in 1987). They also wrote or co-wrote the hit songs "I Drove All Night" (recorded by various artists, initially recorded by Roy Orbison in 1987 but first released by Cyndi Lauper in 1989), "I Touch Myself" by Divinyls (1990), and "I'll Stand by You" by The Pretenders (1994).
So if you put the word "EARLY" before the band name HEART is easy my top 10 favorite bands with EARLY RUSH, UFO, PRIEST, etc. Magic Man is "Earliest" HEART being from the first album " Dreamboat Annie" which I'll say along with the album Little Queen " are 2 of my top 20 albums I think!?! Hmm 🧐. Anywho CRAZY ON YOU also on the first album is the MOST ESSENTIAL HEART SONG of HEART songs! Wanna vote?? Peace 🕊️☮️♾️😎
Cu toate că piesa celor de la Heart este un cover este mai elaborată și mai preferată decât originalul.
Iată originalul

This is HEART from the mid-late 80's. The other videos you seen was from the70's Heart..
Ya know what? I'm gonna give everyone a jewel. Look up Barracuda with Alice in chains, Nancy Wilson, and Greta Wilson!!! Do it!!! I would pay highly to see this live!!! Hundreds!!!
I’ve heard this song & saw this video a buncha times. Now I've recenrlt learned that this is actually a cover! What?
Apparently it was originally done by some band (I think a band) I-Ten in 1983, then done by Valerie Stevenson & John Stamos (it’s, uncle Jesse) in 85 for the show Dreams. Then Heart released this in 1987.
So what Heart did was add “‘Til now” in the chorus, Anne’s epic high note, & a slightly different guitar solo (though John Stanos’ solo is pretty fire too).
Yeah, put this in the category of “songs you didn’t know are covers.”
Can you please react to AC/DC Let there be rock live in Toronto Canada 2003 SARS relief PLEASE ITS SOOO GOOD AND SHE'S GOT THE JACK ANGUS HAS A SUPRISE FOR THE CROWD😂😂 I know you've already done the song but this is a clearer version❤
This Was There Glam Metal Power Ballad Song and There Big Hair Of The Mid 80’s Hair Bands ! There Earlier Stuff Was Late 70’s Early 80’s Rock Sound Then Came The Glam Metal Sound
I know that this is THE version of "Alone". However, this is not the original. A group called "i-Ten" recorded it first in 1983. The people behind "i-Ten" were Billy Steinberg and Tom Kelly, who also wrote several major hits for other artists. "Like a Virgin" for Madonna, "True Colors" for Cindy Lauper, "Eternal Flame" for the Bangles", "I'll Stand by You" for the Pretenders", to name a few.
Excellente réaction, bravo à tous les deux pour cette chanson qui me laisse sans voix à chaque fois. Par comparaison, écoutez la reprise/hommage de Floor Jensen ( la chanteuse du groupe NIGHTWIST ) qui pourrez vous clouer elle aussi, juste voix piano, à écouter absolument, vous ne serez pas déçu. Bonne écoute et à bientôt.....
Killer Guitar Solo! 😎🔥🤘🎸
I really hope one day you guys cover a Nancy Wilson HEART song. Being that she had the biggest hit the band had. THESE DREAMS. C'mon guys...you are missing treasures if ya ignore Nancy!!!
