precisely

Word...

In her prime yes she does...she wasn't in her prime here.

Do you know Dolores O'Riordan? I think not.

TheDissmaster10 , and your point is ! ?.

Love Ann!! But, do you realize music 🎶 and different voices!!! What about Ann Murray the Canadian country artist, how about Mariah Carey and Whitney and others?

Ann was even prettier (sexier?) at Carrie's age. Not to take anything away from Miss Underwood, she is super fine.But ladies like Ann Wilson only come along every hundred years or so.

very true!!

@@stevebigfoot8864 she's still beautiful.

Carrie holds her own and can sing just about anyones song. Ann can probably sing Carrie's song but that cant be said for many singers out there. . Carrie is a powerhouse voice all her own too

...and Ann is very gracious to "share her song" with Carrie. Class act!

Yep. Still being me to tears.

Agreed 👍💯

She is, absolutely, without a doubt, the fucking queen. Nobody has pipes that comes even close to her.

Also, I don't mean to talk down about Carrie either -- she's amazing, but... Ann Wilson...

@@wfonvergne Check out Annie Haslam and Renaissance

Every time.

100%. Every. Single. Time!

Me too. Still 20 years after watching it on vh1. From where Ann comes in at the 2nd chorus and then on...goosebumps

Greatest female singer ever period

I'd have to add one caveat to that; "for her genre". There are female vocalists in other genres that are similarly powerful but so different that it is hard to compare. Like, say, operatic singers. And being more of a metalhead myself, I can't help but think of someone like Floor Jansen, the singer of Nightwish. I wouldn't say she is better than Ann (particularly since this isn't a competition), but definetly her equal in terms of power and range.

@@michaelt.5672 Kiri Te Kanawa & Katherine Jenkins, for two, aye.

So you have never heard of Janis Joplin...

@@sachsgs2509 Janis as awesome as she was, Ann still tops her

My Annie, always the best

I love Anne and Carrie, what's wrong with that? The always saying that someone is the best ever is a very slippery slope, because it's opinion based and music 🎶 is the biggest opinion based thing ever!!!

Heart one of the greatest rock bands EVER.

Yes..I get chills

yazz

Kent Mains you're a Tool😁

Carrie doesn't need guts. She has phenomenal talent!

amen !

Carrie does have talent , but face it . Her voice is not on the same level as Ann's!

Her sister nancy is better

A million ships.

Dreamboats, to be specific

And she should be! Anne is rock!

Carrie always trying to be rock? Beautiful voice? But to much twang? Love her to death...but stick to what u do best

Where Ann comes back into the song at about 2:30 is sheer greatness.

Carrie showed some courage singing alongside a legend like Ann

It's called respect.

Ann's the bomb.. the only other rocker with those pipes was. Grace Slick... Carrie sang beautifully in this video... kudos to both of them

Ann has HEART. The band has the right name. Stay sober Annie.

Me too.

*71

Beautiful comment, I still listening to her song 2021, hi Michelle how are you doing?

Helene Jennings my words EXCATLY !!! WOW, SHE HELD HER OWN!!

This is soooo cool!

One of my all-time favorite covers is Carrie doing "Paradise City" as an encore. She hangs with Axl too... I grew up on Rock and Roll (met Ann and Nancy when Nancy and I were still teenagers) but Carrie is the real deal.

I am a male (non-drinking) karaoke singer. Recently I sang this as part of a Battle of The Sexes theme because participants had to pick a song by an artist of the opposite gender. I will tell you that as a male vocalist this is a hard song to sing. I dont know how I did it but I did it. That said not anyone would be able to pull this song off. Carrie managed to but she is no Ann Wilson. Carrie is a country singer so this was a challenge for her to cross over into the pop/rock genre. Something to also bear in mind is that this performance of the song was slower than the studio recording. That said Carrie stepped out of her comfort zone and pull this off

@@BlueEyes-ii4zz You do know that Carrie performed this song on American Idol, don't you? In my mind, it is the song that caused Carrie to win American Idol !! So Carrie has been singing this song for some time now. This was not her first time to sing Alone !!

They aren't a girl rock band. They only have the two front people that are women. The other four are men. IMO, the greatest all women Rock Band would be the Bangles.

@@imkluu The Bangles aren't all women. There is one hot chick and a couple dudes in drag.

meh how about we say rock band and not girl rock band

Ann Wilson has been singing professionally for almost 45 years! Heart hit the big time when I was in high school in the mid 70s. I saw them at a local community college then. I've seen almost every major rock artist from the late 60s to the late 70s and later and Heart was easily among the top 4 or 5. The band was extremely tight without the slightest bit of sloppiness and all the musicians were very accomplished. Ann's singing was simply awe inspiring. She had a very wide vocal range, perfect control of every nuance and a perfect sense of timing and phrasing. Her range has diminished somewhat. That's only natural but not to the extent that you see with male vocalists. She's been blessed that way. She has certainly not lost any of her control. I've always considered her vocal and musical abilities on par with the likes of Barbra Streisand, Aretha Franklin and even Judy Garland. Of course each of these singers has a unique singing style but their singing abilities tower above all others in the last century or so.

Add Betty Buckley and Lady Gaga to that list!

this song was release on 1987 and carrie born in 1983.. she was 4 years old

bizcocounty tu as tellement raison!!Même Carrie semble fascinée de la puissance de Ann!!! Fantastique!!!

​@christophermichaelson9050 I agree, lady Gaga is very underrated!!!!

Damn! Ann can still hit an F#. Now that's saying something!

Perfectly said. I’ve seen Heart a gajillion times, they never disappoint. And I love how great talents like Carrie Underwood and Miranda Lambert show so much respect for the legends who blazed trails for them.

Ann said Carrie got her attention on Idol, along with everybody else. When Carrie sang this song on Idol. That is why iHeart invited Heart and Carrie to this event. And iHeart did an interview with Heart and Carrie and why Carrie chooses this song on Idol. Carrie never expected this much attention for choosing that song.

This is such a Perfect & Amazing Comment by you Sir....😝🙃🤨 Carrie & Ann are both Beautiful Goddesses!!

Perfect Post by you.....😉👻👽

I give Carrie points for taking Ann's power vocals and singing top notes above them - a sweet combination!

I once saw Ann WIlson at Church's Chicken, she had a whole bucket to herself. Respect...

Pain Jammin LMAO D.E.A.D. 😂🤣😅

Um pat benatar.

Deej Mateo PAT WAS GREAT!!! POWER AND TONE!!!!! CLASICALLY TRAINED OPERA SINGER

I saw her walk away from the mic in a 2000 seat venue when they did some unplugged type of tour back in the late 90's maybe early 2000's, i cant remeber. Lots of free shows for me. She walked away and it was nuts how loud she still was. i was in the balcony with a guy from the pumpkins and one other guy from another band. we were all pretty stunned.

Seem Heart in 1981. They opened for the Stone's at Folsum Field, Boulder, Colorado.

The fact that she was almost 60 there makes it even more amazing.

The lights

Actually, Ann has taken off a fairly large amount of weight and hits those notes far more easily, now, than she did on this video.

absolutely Correct........the weight loss HAS brought back some of that magic..........the Best female Rock Voice of ALL time!

You guys need to get your life they have theres

"memorized" ? lol _mesmerized_

@@manofiske3318 5 years to catch a mis type. Good for you.

@@ShamanD312 I love the comment section because it allows for such an open forum of discourse. Little critiques as well.

Agreed. Her voice may not have fully matured, like many things that get better with use, just as with all the muscles in our bodies. If the point is competition, I am not interested in either the performance, or the comparisons. Carrie will get better with Time, Ann needs to be careful not to overuse hers, or she will end up sounding like the druggy singer from the 60s that OD'd and took what little ability she had left in her voice to her grave.

This girl is only 14 years old and honestly better than them, a huge talent, everytime at 2:04 and 3:17 I have goosebumps kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oJiEhK6B1p6ydYk.html

Okk

My first concert was a double ticket Heart and Pablo Cruise. Pablo Cruise? Who the fuck is that? Heart in an outdoor theater in Northern Michigan Ann and Nancy could sing a corpse back to life!

Dang, you are so freaking lucky to have experiences Ann's voice live. I would have loved to have been there.

MegaFireman50 ha! ha! totally agree and love your comment!

ty may we all live long lives god bless

amen

love your comment, but Ann was 57 years old when this video was made. Please don't rush her into her 70's yet . She is 65 now.

she will be 66 this year june and u r right ty

I expect it from Ann and Nancy, never knew Carrie could do that.

Agreed, but Ann obviously loves her and wants her there for this masterpiece!!! My point is, some of the comments saying Carrie is not close to Ann singing wise is ridiculous!!! Can't we just enjoy this instead of the best of this and that and all time stuff? Lol 👍 😂

아름다운 영혼을 가지셨네요,,^^

Same

A year later, the beauty of their voices still brings tears to my eyes

dammit, 3 years later... more tears

+jason groomes That is FULL VOICE raw Ann at her very best! Nobody can match that!

jason groomes i couldn't agree more... That woman gives me chills Everytime

And she's still singing it IN THE ORIGINAL KEY!!!

Absolute truth

Is she in her 60's? Wow, how time flies, but she still is the rock goddess...

+Rick Kernell Ann is 65 and Nancy is 61 If the upload date is close to when this was aired, they would have been 57 & 53.

Rick Kernels I am

True .Plus Ann & Nancy have been there for me for many decades . The best ,'Heart.' !!

No ,i am not high . I like Carrie but she can't hold a candle to 'Ann Wilson.' Who's been singing for Heart for over 40 year's . !!

Ann is probably a better artist than Carrie but you're in a different reality than the rest of us if you think she can sing better than Carrie.

really_its_fine where? I didn't see that...

Scott David there's no way getting over her!

😂

Maybe not in her prime but Carrie is the far superior vocalist on this stage.

Beautiful comment, I still listening to her song 2021, hi Amy how are you and your family doing with the pandemic issue?

exactly .

@montanadoctor Not a competition; a collaboration.

You re correct , two naturals Whew goose bumps

I just watched that Kennedy Center Performance. Robert Plant was tearing up! Incredibly powerful performance! Thx for recommending it!

I think I've watched it at least a dozen times!!!
