  • Anne Wilson has an incredible voice ! She always will, dammit.

  • I want to see the sister play LEAD

  • vote..for..HEART!!! ROCK HALL OF FAME VOTING! VOTE HEART!

  • I'm amazed her voice has held as well it has! 35 years or so... wow!

  • @ShazzaWT No kidding aye! Its a bit raspier but I like that too.I think she plan's on passing more lead vocal duties over to Nance from what I hear.

  • @ShazzaWT that's due to amazing vocal technique...no screaming, but just amazing singing!!!!

  • Always loved this band since first hearing "Barracuda" on AM radio in '77..the girls are STILL sexy. The voices still awesome and the band kicking arse..I'm seeing 'Heart' here in Melbourne, Australia on OCT 22 with Def leppard and the choirboys..(Although I'm only interested in Heart). can't wait.....

  • @deeppurplerules1

    will be there as well loved em since i was a kid its gonna be worth the 25 year wait to see em here in oz

  • barracuda rocks ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

  • shes a rock goddess, timeless, ageless.

  • @runningoil Yes she is.

  • I'm seeing them in concert soon!!

  • @mooooo44 Yaaayyyy! Have a wonderful time!

  • one of my favourite songs in my youth. in germany to listen only on afn radio. still making my body move and the voice of wilson..... uhhhhhh barracuda!

  • neat

  • awesome voice :D \m/

  • damn this lady kicks ass

  • Wow!! Amazing show, they sound great! Saw their live performance February 2011 in Edmonton, at the Jubilee. If you get a chance, don't miss the opportunity to see this Classic Rock Legend group. They sound as good, if not better than the early days.

  • Jeez, for a woman in her 60s, Ann Wilson still has a hell of a voice.

  • I think the lead guitarist did a good job, but I want his spot so I could rock out with Nancey.

  • @jawsrock1 You and a million others, : )!

  • The only thing that has changed is the fact that they've aged. Can't help that!

  • Grizzly Adams on bass? Does Nancy have groupies? She's still so hot, and old enough to be my mother!

  • Saw Heart in St. John's Jan. 28th. Awesome show!!  Ann and Nancy sure can bring a crowd to its feet!!

  • @24cupscountem Craig said the group and crew got screeched the other night! : )

  • HEART WILL ROCK ON FOR EVER!!!! I was born when they where already famous and got to know them in the 80´s. But I lost my HEART to their music. Ann and Nancy Wilson are the bomb!

  • I wish now there were such REAL female rockers like these two amazing sisters... HEART IS PURE MUSIC, no comparison with anyone, not even Shirley Manson and surely not that pop-"rock"-hiphopfriendly Paramore's girl.

  • :'D I LOVE YOUUU

  • Looking forward to seeing them live in Edmonton, AB, in Feb 2011

  • Their music will never die...

  • The American response to Zeppelin. HArd rocking songs, intraspective songs, anything Led had, Heart had. Never got the recognition they deserved, but definetly one of the greatest rock bands ever.

  • @kuorva yes i agree 100% :) cheers!!!

  • I just love watching Nancy rock out behind Ann!!!

  • i like ann's hair...these sisters are so0o0 talented...

  • Anyone dismissive of Ann and Nancy Wilson in any way is ignorant. Being a musician myself, and hanging out with other musicians, I can tell you that any one of them worth their salt knows that both Ann and Nancy are among the very best that ever graced a stage. if you have not seen them live, you should.

  • VERY BIG BIG BIG BIG VOICE! BEST FEMALE ROCK VOICE!

  • God I love this song and has for over 30 years....

  • Anyone know if thats a Gibson or an Epiphone that shes using? just curious.

  • I love Heart. Their hits were constantly on the radio during my late teens, and again during the mid-80s. Ann's voice is showing some wear here; she doesn't sustain the highest notes as she used to. But there's still a ton of power in that larynx:). And I don't give a rat's rear end about her weight. Whether lean or large, she's a great R&R singer:) --

  • wow surprise she didn't lose her voice yet after all these years of screaming

  • @zzzthaoster No doubt,I really have to give kudos to the legends that have taken care of themselves and retained their wonderful gift,like Ann!

  • @zzzthaoster yes i know Anns voice is just so amazing i get chills and tears at the same time. her voice brings back memories and it sounds identical or better .!! not sure witch :) get the latest dvd they made called "night at sky church"  they do this and crazy on you is amazing :) cheers

  • @zzzthaoster She is indeed incredible. Listen to Darby Mills (Headpins) sometime, I still can't believe her voice is so strong in 2010.

  • Not sure why but it annoys me how that snare is mic'd.

  • These women are still foxes! The entire band is great.

  • Is Immigrant Song from Private Sessions Oct 2007 on Youtube?

    Barracuda great guitar rift and Ann's vocals are amazing

  • @tjk247 Yes it is,I think I wrote that in the info section.Your seeing Ann's version she recorded for her 1st solo album"Hope & Glory" by the way.

  • That keyboardist rocked it last night in Pittsburgh. She was incredible!

  • She has an even better voice now .

  • born 1975, Heart is one of my favourite bands ever. First time I got to know them was at the age of 12. And that was the first time, they hit my heart (thank´s to my big brother). They still hit my heart, one of the best bands ever. Ann´s voice is giving me goose bombs

  • Ann Wilson just turned 60 and she still sings great!!

  • Its crazy, this song is 30 years old at this point and they sound as good as ever!

  • thanks to LOVESHEART for all the great post

  • One of my favorite songs, my mom would get my dad to dance with me to it. :)

  • Me too they have always been a good band no matter what anybody says

  • I love Heart!

  • What beatiful women! What great musicians! WHAT A VOICE!!!!!

  • One of the first songs I learned to play...easy but effective

  • Wow, all these years later and ANN is still smoking hot, still has a kick ass voice. The "new rock stars" could learn alot from her.

    She's beautiful.

  • Timeless!!! These beautiful ladies can still jam!!!! Ann's vocals Nancy's riffing are still great as they ever!!! thanks for posting!

  • @NEVERLEAVEORFORSAKE Hey,your welcome.

  • Someone explain to me why these ladies have not been inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame! They are the best absolutely, hands-down, the best ever!

  • One of the best female rock singers of all time....but I wish that played it the same speed as the record

  • Ann Wilson is such a very gifted woman - still have a beautiful face at the age of 60, could play different instruments, very down to earth and on top of it all an oozing talent in singing - her vocals is such a pure and genuine gift that couldn't be compared to anyone else. LONG LIVE ANN so that you could share such talent to everyone else. Love you much!

  • Derosier played it the best, 3-5-4 bars of 12, beats turned around.

    i agree Ann sounds as good today as she did in 77' ... actually the same.

  • I love Nancy's kicks!

  • Janis Joplin, Ann Wilson, Nancy Wilson, Doro, Pat Benatar, are my favourite Rock female singers. Ann is still rockin as she used to be. Long Live.

  • I love Nancy's Les Paul. Don't see many with the Bigsby. Sweet!

  • still got her voice - but this version is dragging.

  • i love this song so much! Great!

  • they rock HARD! BLISTERING GUITARS!

  • it's amazing how well she sings, even nowadays. And that song is fucking hard to sing!!

  • I first heard this song in GTA and started to love it!

    Still the same fantastic voice!

  • What a voice...consistant over 35 years....world recognition well over due.

  • Ohh fer Sure!!! I believe its coming! : )

  • AMen Brother

  • Still a force to be reckoned with! Bless them; Just Awesome!

  • Hert is playing in my CITY on March 8th 2010....Still trying to get tickets.

  • That would be Victoria,I will see them the next night.

  • Still the best female rock voice ever.....

  • I like it but i miss the old Barracuda, yeah, the awesome good old barracuda, its better than this but this is cool anyway i dont like the guitarrist man

  • If you pay attention they pick up the pace as they go. Its one of those pieces that you have to be careful with tempo-wise or it'll run away with you. I think thats what happened on the brigade version. Its a little easier to speed everyone up than it is to slow everyone down. If you come out of the gate at breakneck speed, it makes for a loooong song and lots of mistakes.

    LOL...Little nancy, she just oozes rock and roll. Cameron's got himself a hottie!

  • that was badass

  • love this song...

  • ANN AND NANCY... Queens the rocks.

  • I used to play that piece with my old band. We always had to remind ourselves not to speed up while playing. I think it sounds better if its played a bit slower.

  • Too slow. I wish they would have played it like the original.

  • Yeah?I like it,some say the version from the Brigade tour is way too fast,this is a touch slower than the album I believe.

  • Fantastic! Someone check their backyard for the Fountain of Youth. When they're on a bigger stage Nancy jumps around like a teenager...

  • I love the Nancy's attitude, she's so cool!

  • yeah,shes great

  • FANTASTIC!! Better than ever!!

  • PERFECT!!!!!

  • 30 years later very good

  • wow impressive she can hit the notes at 57. not many rock singers keep their voice long =)

  • I can't even think of a chick today that is a legit rocker...i think Chrissie Hynde was last chick I thought was a rocker...but geez no one hold a candle to Ann Wilson's voice and nancy just freakin rocks

  • @mzzh - perhaps part of the problem is using a word like 'chick'. I'm not sure why you're expecting a little fuzzy barnyard fowl to sing in the first place.

    Such an ugly word - I shudder at its gradual reappearance in the world. :(

  • @Timmybear I like the word Chick,I think its kinda sexy,my personal opinion. : )

  • @lovesheart - I guess my problem is the context in which I always hear it. 'Some chick' or 'just a chick'. I mean, I'm always running into flac from people who think my cheerfully answering to 'faggot' is a problem. I've never found that word a problem, but then it's the defense of truth, and it is strictly true by dictionary definition. On the other hand, 'chick' has always appeared in dismissive senses when I've heard it.

  • @Timmybear Ha,interesting to hear your take.It's funny how I have always used or heard it used in a positive light..for instance "Man that Chick's voice is mind blowing"..or "Wow that chick is so friggin tasty"! ; D

    Cheers from the Birthplace of HEART..Vancouver B.C.

  • Ann looks great!

  • this song plays on the game Prey it really got you psyched up killing aliens while listenin to this song

  • ROCK ROYALTY !!!

  • simply one of the best VOICES of all time ....there will NEVER be another Ann Wilson.

  • Heart is not the same without Roger and Howard Leese

  • 57 years and looks gorgeous

  • Brilliant! Holds up over time.

  • she still sounds WONDERFUL after all these years!!!.. thats an accomplishment!!!! And in the original key.. I LOVE IT!!! She looks great too... they both do

  • Unbelievable. What a voice after all these years. Blows away any other woman rocker. Hands down.

  • also blows away alot of male rockers too for that matter

  • lol thumbs up for that bro

  • lead guitarist looks like Tommy Emmanuel. Ann's voice is still remarkable!

  • you just gotta know how to feel it man. And Jesus does she still got it

  • Would've sounded so much better if the tempo wasn't so damn slow

  • Heart - Barracuda (1977) is a better version. Probably the best.

  • the best!

  • Brilliant!

    Good head bangin' American Rock and Roll!

  • if the classic rock we call today is classic wich it is good then wut happens with the rock today wen it becomes classic well be screwed

  • I'm in love with Ann! I wish I could rock that hard!

  • AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!

  • There are only a handful of women who can rock it out and these are two of them.

  • Still sounds powerful!

  • i hope they make a new cd soon i luv these gurls

  • 8 songs are complete and the new album will be out next year from what I understand. : )

  • it's amazing how many of the 70's stars are still around and still kicking the shit out of the pansy music the kids are listening to today. Ann Wilson will be 60 next year and she's still got it. I saw Dio & Black Sabbath last year too and Dio is almost 70 and kicking ass. I wish American Idol, Disney, Nickelodeon and whoever else is promoting today's 'music' would take a collective jump off a bridge. THIS video is a great example of how it should be done.

  • The best "Lady Rockers" ever....there is no other women that can hold a candle to these ladies!

  • big,beautiful and talented..

    what more can a woman ask for!?

    Heart RULES

  • you may enjoy scrap gold's rendition

  • Nancy playing an Epiphone!!!

  • thats who her sponsor was/is i used to see ads of her with the les paul with that bigsby trem on it

  • yep- that is the les paul ultra she is playing

  • Ann looks and sounds PHENOMENAL. Nancy too.

  • I love this tempo. Can't understand how the band members manage to keep their paws off those ladies!

  • its ahair slow loved the way Carmassi played this one All bown down before queen Anne

  • my father was dying of cancer from'76 till his death in'77. with the beatles, geneses, buffalo springfield, rungren,jefferson airplane and ALWAYS my led zepplin, this group helped me so much. i saw them 5 times - phenomenal. i worked for a music outlet in the 70's and my boss found 2 illegal 'magazine' lps mushroom released secretly. the group parted ways before it was finished. the songs words and editing are rough& different. but it' a great collectors item. i know and love that version. lisa

  • I just like that after 30 years of preforming this song, they are still hitting all the right notes. Nancy is so awesome with her energy and she is still hot. Ver impressive!

  • Ann's voice is still incredibly strong, but I noticed she's a bit slow with the lyrics. It sounds like the song is done at 9/10th speed setting. ;)

  • It's not just the vocals, the timing of the entire song is slowed down.

  • I love watching Nancy gettin' down on the guitar and Ann hitting the high notes!

  • Yeah!! when your gifted as Nancy is and just getting right into the music ..Awsome !!

  • Nancy is still so energetic! So is Ann's voice! Impressive.

  • Tru ... the song is played rather slow ... I wonder if they were going for a little more Seattle "grunge" sound or something.

    Tho ... I've seen some of their concert footage where it's so fast it sounds more like punk rock.

    The song is still a classic regardless. They're still two rockin' chics!!

  • Do you guys know what Ann is wearing on her left wrist. I'm just wondering, because I see her wear that a lot.

  • I believe its something she uses to control her Microphone.

  • how nancy still does all her jumps and kicks and stuff like shes still 19 lol

    funny

  • haha I know, she's so cute.

  • rock and roll keeps you young and alive.

  • Tell that to Bruce Springsteen. I heard he tried to slide during his Super Bowl halftime show and almost killed himself. :)

  • She can sing till she's eighty years, I believe. Such a great Voice!!!!

  • just a little too slow otherwise great

  • I love these two Wilson sisters. No matter what the year they still rock and have that Heart sound that cannot be duplicated by anyone anytime. Now that I am close to Seattle I would love to see them live anytime... Great Job as usual ladies and gentlemen!! And thanks for this great quality video!!

  • im sorry people, but the 70s version is way.

  • most recent (last few years) clips of heart on you tube are pretty damn good- and they do a great (better than this) version of this song on the "ellen" show- but I think this version is sluggish. it seems 20 bpm slower than the original recorded version. don't get me wrong- it's good and ann sounds great as always, but this version is a bit anemic.

  • where does Nancy get the energy!!! gotta get some of it-- you still rock girls!!!!!

  • AWESOME!!!its the full song right???

  • dare i say ann sounds even better now then before

  • Sexi!!!

  • Man!!..they are still hot as hell..fucking Wilson sisters..the original minstrel pixies.

  • AMAZINGGG

  • The awesome 80's lives!! Heart singers voice has only gotten better over the years, who else can say that? NOBODY!! rock on, wilson sisters!!!

  • totally agree dude wilson sisters are 2 of my favorite female musicians BUT... they are from the 70's NOT 80's...

    PEACE

  • Yes,they're from 80s too...

  • and 90's...

  • Great performance.

    I spy an Epiphone.

  • Awesome!! Thanks for posting!

  • viva guitar hero este grupo me encanta

  • THE ONE AND ONLY ANN WILSON!!!!!!!

  • babyj1996:

    You got that right!!! Ann Wilson, GORGEOUS!! GREAT singer

  • Thats Ann Not a NEW Singer..

  • that drummer is really good.

  • That leadsinger is incredible. That voice!! and she still looks pretty good for a rockchick

  • As always, these women rock and like a classic car or movie with time and age they are exactly as golden as they have ever been from start to finish, Ann, Nancy, - "Heart" you will rock on till the End!!! Peace & Love Always-

  • this rocks my socks

  • Yes, the new singer is awesome. Heart sounded so good good last nite in concert.

  • New singer? While it's great that you appreciate incredible talent, that is the one & only, inCOMParable Ann Wilson...

    duh!

  • Saw them in concert with Journey and Cheap Trick and they freakin stole the show. AMAZING!

  • Saw them in Virginia Beach, VA on 12 Aug, and they were awesome...these women really bring it.

  • yeah dude it was kinda dissapointing that heart owned journey because i didnt know who heart really was and i loveee journey. but know i listen to heart sooo much

  • Nacy should just have her name legally changed to talent. Talent Wilson. There ya go.

  • shes my favorite rockstar of all time. Nancy if u read this i will sell my soul for a date with you!!!! -24 yrs m atl ga

  • Heart was a potent combination....the powerful vocalist (Ann) and the sex kitten guitarist (Nancy).....guaranteed to sell millions of records.
