it is amazing how nancy and ann are so poised and talented but so strong and powerful to be able to tour and perform like they did in the 1980s and for many decades.
Vary interesting indeed and tnx for uploading.This must have been a little later in the recording process of this track as the basic parts of the arrangement were already written and learned by the musicians.This is the time consuming and generally boring part of the whole process of fine tuning the arrangement and getting everything on tape for further editing.This is very time consuming and can indeed get on everyone's nerves ! We, as fans see the end product, and the concerts, the glitter and glamour of the end product and not fully realizing the extend of the work and patience necessary to put this thing together in a salable package.package. Tnx agn i really loved the insight it provided ! I used to play in a band , as first trumpet and do remember the hours of preparation necessary to put on a concert. Peace !
This is how it is in the recording/rehearsal studio. So many hours and hard work are spent on repeating, editing, tweaking, etc., as a musician myself I can attest to that. But the rewards of hearing a finished product are indeed bittersweet and fulfilling!
I love their 70’s stuff so much more, but I can understand wanting to keep up with the sound of the time. Regardless of the presentation, their songs are always genuine and universal.
You know, I have seen old photos of them as kids and it's obvious from these that Ann and Nancy share a strong, almost unbreakable bond. Extremely heartwarming to observe.
I was listening to / watching this while doing my 5 mile ride on my bike trails. It was so awesome riding by the horses pasturing, on a hot August evening, with the sun setting and the moon rising, our beautiful painted, Texas sky, and this haunting tune blasting in my head phones. It reminded me of an 80s movie soundtrack with this as an anthem where I was winning some type personal/ emotional and physical race. Very awesome tune. It is also awesome with the vocals added. Ann's voice sounds great on it!
This is the lost mid 1980s material I wanted to see. This Nevison music should have been put on 1990's dull Brigade if there was no room for it on the 1985 and 1987 albums. This song is tremendous. Like a drama rock version of Flashdance. A huge lost opportunity for everyone that this song was not put on an album. Heart + Nevison = a musical marriage made in heaven.
I agree that this song is way too good to be hidden away and kept in the vaults. It wouldn't surprise me though if part of the reason it remains unreleased is the fact that Ann and Nancy (or "Heart" as an entity) still may not actually own the rights to the recordings or any portion thereof including unfinished songs like this one. But that shouldn't stop them from being able to re-record everything from scratch if the record company (Capitol/EMI/Universal) doesn't co-operate with giving them access to the multitracks or masters. Let's hope that the powers that be (whether that's Heart or the record label or both) aren't finished with going through the archives and decide to finally release gems like this, even if it's not in a more polished and complete form.
This should have been put on heart's 1985 or 1987 or 1990 album and ann made to scream her head off while singing this song. what a massive lost opportunity.
Ron Nevison should have got Ann Wilson and Heart to at least record this for use in a movie. What a tremendous song. This was after the movie Flashdance but would have been a great rock song for that film.
This is sooop not from Magazine. You can tell in several ways. 1, Roger Fisher isn't there a d Denny Carmassi and Mark Andes is. There hair styles are totally the 80s. And of course because Nancy is playing her Dean Baby Z that is from the early-mid 80s.
They should have made a 3rd album with Ron Nevison and Peter Wolf. The anti hair metal rock was not as prevalent as many thought it was just that radio and the music media was putting all 80s rock bands in the hair category.
Holy hell... This sounds like Black Sabbath. Or... Was this before the Black Sabbath song? Obviously, I'm not referring to the song Black Sabbath itself.. lmao!!! Now it's "Let it Be"... Rock N Roll is amazing. As you journey through the depths of it's various creations, you peel back more layers! I just wish that more people could see how bands like Heart were also influenced by Black Sabbath and see how, In turn, Black Sabbath was influenced by Heart. Can I get a "like" from anyone out there that knows these two bands the way that I do and can comprehend what I'm saying by hearing what I'm hearing?
I always thought of them as more influenced by Zeppelin, but I can see what you mean. If you listen to their fist albums from the 70’s you hear Zeppelin.
I’m not too familiar with Sabbath, other than the classic ones you hear all the time when you listen to classic rock…but I will always think of Heart as a 70s band. The 80s/early 90s was a struggle for rock, unless it was “progressive”, as grunge was labeled at first. The mid to late 90s just completed what Heart was trying to do in the 70s(and they’re from Seattle!! No coincidence) They were good friends with Chris Cornell, btw. I think they jumped on the wrong bandwagon in the 80s.
@@juliew1426 I agree completely. You said that very well. Did you see when Ann played a song with the guy from the band that had that song, "Man in the Box"? Lol, I'm drawing such a blank right now.... It was a Seattle grunge band...
Fan all these years... why did I not know that Ann Wilson could play piano? Was that because they already had a keyboard player and didn't want to showcase her keyboard talents? That would have been killer.
I think we've pretty much titled it Love's Taken Over Me. It has not been released on an album. Not even used as the B-side of a single. So, as far as we know, it remains unreleased.
@@dampergoldenrod4156 my god your negative comments are everywhereeee. you don't like the Brigade album or Whitney Houston or Madonna we get it!!! 🙄 I think Ann and Nancy are the most beautiful and talented women but I'm not going to put other female singers down and compare them. Whitney and Madonna were talented and beautiful in their own ways and there still exist many feminine women believe it or not. Such ridiculous comments lol
MICHAEL DAVIS In Part 1 the poster calls it 'Love's Taken Over Me' (or maybe 'Love's Taking Hold Of Me' ?). Without more info that seems to be a good name for it, especially when you listen to Ann's vocals near the end of this Part 2 and in Part 3 during what would be the chorus. Ever since I heard this I've been searching for more on it but so far have come up empty. Maybe I'm just not looking in the right places. I thought I was sure that there are places on the web where you can go to look up songs that have been published but not necessarily recorded (i.e. the many song publishers). Maybe that stuff is only available to people in the industry? This may have actually been published at some point and is available for someone to record. Or it may not nave been. Maybe someone else DID record it. I don't know. I wish that someone more familiar with the industry would come across this video and enlighten us. I'm not giving up the search yet. If I can't find anything then I think I'll just try to send a message to Ann & Nancy through their fan club. Or the next time they do a show in my city, try to ask them then - if I get the opportunity. By the way, I just recently found out that Ann & Nancy were 2 of the co-writers of 'Magic' by Olivia Newton-John. If you're not familiar with the song, go have a listen to it. I believe it's from 1980. I don't know if it was written that year or a few before, but I could easily see (hear) that being a Heart song from the Magic Man/Crazy On You era. Similar sound and feel, in my opinion. I mention this as just one example of a song that was written (well, co-written) but not recorded by them. Who knows what else is out there to discover!
MICHAEL DAVIS Ann is singing it here on RU-vid. This was not included in their 1985 or 1987 album for some reason it would have been an incredible power rock song.
+MICHAEL DAVIS Could be any number of reasons why. Maybe it wasn't up to them. Could have been the record company or the producer (Ron Nevison) that suggested leaving it off. Could be that they felt they already had enough similar sounding songs already on it and didn't want to have too many of the same type. That's not an unusual thing to have happen. Could be that it just wasn't going to be finished in time to include it and perhaps they had intended on using it as a B-side but never followed through with that. Also, keep in mind that this was at a time when the average record (and I do mean literally the vinyl record) was about 38-45 min long and ones that ran longer, say 50-55 or more, were still not really the normal yet. The CD which allowed those long albums to happen more easily was introduced (for sale) in North America in the spring of 1983 if I recall correctly. Depending on which album sessions this is from ('Heart' or 'Bad Animals'), this would have been recorded only in the first few years of the existence of the CD. From a purely technical standpoint, you usually wanted to keep the side of a record to about the halfway (20-25 min maximum) length because the more you try to fit onto one side, the tighter the groove (or track pitch) would have to be in order to fit it on. All other things being equal, you potentially get better sound quality by sticking to the maximum length rule because it allows the needle (or the original cutting lathe) more space to adjust to the changing levels and frequencies. Lower frequencies (bass) and louder levels take up more room on a record than the higher or quieter ones This is one of the main reasons that records are made with an equalization that cuts the bass and boosts the highs. That's also one of the reasons why you need a phono preamp either built into the receiver or turntable, or a separate one when playing a record. The preamp boosts the low level signal up to the line level and also applies the reverse equalization curve to restore the bass and attenuate the highs. The equalization is known as the RIAA curve and is the standard one that is used. There has been others in the past and some labels even had their own curve. Decca is one that comes to mind right away. But like I said the RIAA EQ curve is the one that has been the standard for many years. So as you can see, it's hard to know for sure which is the real reason(s) for not including it on the album. On another note (no pun intended), I may have been wrong when I mentioned in my earlier post that Ann & Nancy were co-writers of ONJ's 'Magic'. The problem is that I'm now not sure. I originally got that info from Spotify.. It has them listed as co-writers along with John Farrar and 2 others. I have since seen pictures/videos, even here on youtube, of a few of the original records that have only John Farrar as the writer. Does Spotify have incorrect info? Or did the other writers not get their due credit from way back then? Right now I have too much other stuff to do and don't really have the time to investigate this further, but if somebody else can do the research and let us know, then that would be great.
Thanks PurpleGhost. That was very interesting and helpful. I appreciate the info being a musician myself and serious amateur small-time recording engineer on a Garageband multi-track recorder. All that makes sense. Thank you again!!
Ann looks like she is struggling with some garnish or other organic matter between her left central incisor and left lateral incisor near the end of this vid. Its visible @13:59 disappears for a few verses then reappears @ 14:12.
