Really good cover, since I am a fan of Heart who did the original. I do think that, the girl w/ the short dark hair (was it shara) had a larger range than the other, but overall it was great. Nice guitar too. Nancy Wilson actually said she loves the cover, so, cool. :)
@heart6056 yeah if you like shara (the girl with the short dark hair) you should check out her own band, my brightest diamond, especially their album 'bring me the workhorse'. it's all kind of whimsical... like the soundtrack to a fairy tale. and shara's voice gives me shivers!
Nancy Wilson has heard them do this and she actually admited that this was pretty damn good but she also said ann owns it and that konw one can do it like ann wilson but this i must say this is a good live cover
Acoustic and electric work was pretty sloppy, vocals were hit and miss, and the vocal styles clashed. Not a great cover, but it had some good moments.
OK it's an entertaining cover, but Shara more talented than Ann Wilson? Uhh, check out the 1976 HQ live version found here. No one can hit this song like Ann Wilson did.
Shara Worden is a more talented vocalist than Ann Wilson, in my opinion...Though they're both incredible. Shara Worden was clearly influenced by Ann Wilson.
They are pretty good. =) You should see Heart perform it live, and listen to Ann Wilson, the song writer sing it, and hear her sister Nancy play, along with the rest of the band!!!!! They are awesome!!!!! This band is pretty good too. =)
Saw them last week in Atlanta. None better. THE BEST SHOW I've ever seen live!! Colin Meloy is a genius, and he has got to be the hardest working man in rock 'n roll.....His wife, Carson Ellis is equally talented.
i saw them two nights ago and have not been able to get this song out of my head. i didn't really know "crazy on you" before, but i definitely know it now. these girls can SING.
Shara Worden is so incredible... I saw her after the show in Missoula MT but couldn't help but be bashful in the presence of such an other-worldly performer. Electrifying.
While I am super-thankful that someone took the time to tape this, the video does not do justice to just how incredible this was. The whole concert was flawless.
The Decemberists are the best thing to happen to music in a LONG time. <33 Look at Colin shred on that acoustic! And Shara Worden needs to team up with them more in the future! :D I love her voice.
Now if only Eminem would have come on stage and did his song that samples Crazy On You. Imagine Decemberists and Eminem together!
