|
Love Alive . This song is off of the "Little Queen" album, and it truely is one of the more touching songs on this album. I've always like the gypsy concept on the cover - something that many mongers quickly recall when they think of this album.
Into the sun . Their first album, recorded with Mushroom Label in Canada. They, however, left the label after a dispute over media releases.
Break the Rock. A new song performed on their Summer of Love tour. Which was the "reunion" if you will of Heart, their first performance under that name after many years.
dreams . A haunting song off of the album "Passionworks". It is the third track to this lesser known album.
Bebe Le Strange. The title track to the amazing album "Bebe le Strange".
| "Is it cloak and dagger; could it be Spring or Fall?" | Heart lyrics
|
These Dreams. This one's off the self-titled album, released in 1985. This song went on to become a Number 1 hit on the charts.
| "I'm the one that can please you -- ain't that what you said?" | Heart lyrics
|
Even it Up. Another gem from 1979; this song rocks!
Dreamboat Annie. The first track on their first album reached gold for Heart. Released in 1976, the album went platinum. Released on Mushroom Records/Capitol Records, it was recorded at the Can-Base Studios in Vancouver and produced by Mike Flicker. (Thanks, Wikipedia!)
| Okay, I ran out of lyrics!
The girls were brought up in a military family. In which branch of the military was their father a member? (Here's a hint, they claim to be the proud...) | Magic Man Straight from (the) Heart...

Marine Corps. Ann adopted a daughter 1991 and a son in 1998. In June 2004, Heart released "Jupiter's Darling".
t. "Oh...oh....try, try, try to understand....
He's a magic man....oh....he's got the magic hands
"Come on home, girl" he said with a smile
"You don't have to love me yet, let's get high awhile"
But try to understand....try to understand
Try, try, try to understand...he's a magic man...yeah...oh...."
Nancy Wilson married director/screenwriter/Rolling Stone writer Cameron Crowe in 1986 and has written scores for his movies. They became parents to twin boys in 2000.
love. "Come on home, girl" he said with a smile
"I cast my spell of love on you, a woman from a child"
But try to understand...try to understand..."
In 1990 Ann and Nancy formed a new acoustic group, the Lovemongers, and in 1999 they toured as a duo.
baby. "Come on home, girl" Mama cried on the phone
"Too soon to lose my baby yet, my girl should be at home"
But try to understand....try to understand
Try, try, try to understand..he's a magic man, Mama...ah...he's a magic man"
Following the release of "Dog and Butterfly" in 1978, the group began to disintegrate. Roger Fisher left to form his own band, and Nancy took over lead guitar. While their 1985 album, "Heart" sold over five million copies, they had lost their musical direction.
passed to fall. "Never think of never..let this spell last forever"
Well, summer lover passed to fall
tried to realize it all
Mama says she's worried..growing up in a hurry"
The album "Dreamboat Annie", which also had the hit single "Crazy on You", eventually sold over a million copies. So did its successor, "Little Queen". By this time the band had left Mushroom and gone to Portrait Records, causing a major legal battle.
Winter nights. "Winter nights we sang in tune
Played inside the months of moon"
Their first release was "Dreamboat Annie", which sold 30,000 copies in Canada. It sold another 25,000 in the US when released as a single.
love. "Come on home, girl" he said with a smile
"you don't have to love me yet, let's get high awhile
But try to understand...try to understand
Try, try, try to understand...I'm a magic man"
Having until now been based in Seattle, Washington, the band moved to Vancouver, Canada, where they signed with Mushroom Records.
run away. "You know, I could not run away it seemed
we'd seen each other in a dream
Seemed like he knew me....he looked right through me....yeah"
"The Army" changed its name to "White Heart", then shortened it to "Heart" in 1974, the same time that Nancy joined the band.
Blue. "Cold, late night so long ago
when I was not so strong you know
A pretty man came to me
I never seen eyes so blue"
The band's start was when Ann Wilson joined an all-male band called "Army" in 1963...
Barracuda. Fergie's Heart cover from the soundtrack of "Shrek the Third." Yes, that's right. Like you're surprised.
| What rumor abounded about Heart in 1976, when "Dreamboat Annie" was released? | Heart for Beginners
|
That the Wilson sisters were witches.. Pre-Internet, but much like the rumor that Paul McCartney was dead following "Sgt.Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band", radio-listeners passed by word-of-mouth that the Wilsons were in or were the leaders of a cult. Charles Manson was named as the title crazy of their hit "Magic Man."
White Heart. No, I never heard of them before this, either. Ann was in a Seattle band circa-1970 (created in 1963 by Roger and Mike Fisher along with Steve Fossen) called The Army, which morphed into White Heart with the addition of Nancy, then settled on the shortened Heart.
| Which children's TV show featured Heart's "Crazy on You" in a classic 1983 episode? | Heart for Beginners
|
You Can't Do That on Television!. Characters Ross and Christine are arguing in one episode, and Ross plays air guitar on a ukelele while a snippet of "Crazy on You" plays. Ann Wilson was never slimed, however.
| What hip-hop star boldly named his own track "Crazy on You", complete with note-for-note samples from the same-titled Heart song on his 2004 album? | Heart for Beginners
|
Eminem. Eminem's "Crazy in Love" featured a sample by Heart. Off his 2004 album "Encore," Eminem stretched the last years of unsampled hits as a critically mixed grab bag following "The Marshall Mathers LP."
Dog. "Dog and Butterfly" was the 1979 B-side to "Mistral Wind", a softer side of Heart.
Bellevue. Although they moved to Vancouver in 1974, this is where they started. Wikipedia co-founder Larry Sanger is also a Bellevue native.
All I Wanna Do is Make Love to You. Remember when MTV played videos? Heart does! It's when hitchhiking was innocent, and ended up with a night of anonymous, song-worthy lovin' free of murderers, perverts and sullen truckers.
