Encore: Heart - "Crazy On You" with Nancy Wilson

On this encore episode of The Story Behind the Song , we revisit the incredible music of Heart. Just last week, we brought you Nancy Wilson's insights into their powerful track "Barracuda." Now, we journey back to an earlier conversation with Nancy, exploring Heart's breakout classic from their early years: "Crazy on You." This iconic song, arguably their masterpiece, helped solidify Heart as the rock institution they undeniably are – an absolute powerhouse of guitars, drums, bass, and unmistakable vocals led by the dynamic sisters Ann and Nancy Wilson. Formed in 1973, Heart swiftly ascended to the top of the music scene within a few short years. Their 1975 full-length debut, Dreamboat Annie , gifted the world with hits like the title track and the irresistible "Magic Man." However, nestled just three songs into that tracklist lies "Crazy on You," a jam that endures as perhaps the band's most instantly recognizable.
