Kim Carnes ~ Bette Davis Eyes (Live 5-25-2013)

[@acepaul407]

She sounds just like the record. After 40 years she can still deliver the goods. She is the real deal. When she recorded Betty Davis, the producer just hit the 'record' button and she sang. Absolutely no studio tricks involved. A wonderful talent.

[@cr4723]

No, very wrong tones (f.e. 7:18).

[@midnightsopflame7292]

Kim Carnes was the epitome of “cool” in the 80’s! And she’s still got it going on....even after all these years! She just has that “cool factor”, no matter what she does! She was beautiful back in the day and she is beautiful now! Kim Carnes, you “ROCK”!!! ❤️

Kim Carnes' voice is pure magic.

[@DreamVicarious]

Wow! She still sounds really good. Amazing. Timeless music

[@clementin4088]

she's got lots of personality and her voice is always tinted by the same passion! Respect Kim forever.

[@jimthewebguy2000]

I have always loved Kim Carnes' music. And she is a beautiful person. Thank you for pursuing music and giving your voice to the world for us all to be entertained. Much love. - Jim

I have 49 years and today I booked my day to hear My LPs Kim Carnes. In years 80 and 90 my life was watered by brilliant voice Kim Carnes and continues until today. At the time I studied and worked in São Paulo-Brazil and despite not having participated in a fan club, I always had Kim in my heart ... Kim, I wish you, your family and your friends be very happy! Are these little words of thanks because you made my life happier ... A big hug for all vocês! (Sorry, my English and poor and I I used Google translator to write this paragraph)

She´s awesome,her voice rocks!!!

[@jaggass]

its a shame she doesn't tour Britain. its the only song I know as soon as I heard when very young. it was like what a voice she's got. maybe I should see bonnie tyler the british version of kim carnes

[@bobdalton2062]

Song with a story... excellent. Kim still delivers!

[@JamieDelarosa]

Hard to believe this was a hit over 30 years! Kim hasn't changed a bit. And the song still oozes with sensuality.

[@rodneyjj2336]

I remember as a kid growing up in Trinidad and Tobago in the '80s, aspiring to be a vocalist, I used to eavesdrop on my neighbor's radio, we didn't have one of our own, and "Better Davis Eyes" was one of the songs that touched me, so every time I hear it, it's like I time travel into a happy innocent nostalgic place. Now I'm grown and a great vocalist myself, thank you, Kim Carnes. *hint* I see her sipping the tea, vocalists take note

[@LarryMerk]

Great talent. I’m so glad I can go back to such great music.

[@missblackwood]

What a classy and talented lady!! I love this song so much.

[@mO-yl3xy]

[@jaggass]

somethings just get better with age. loads of people say older people cant sing like they used to. they are wrong. kim carnes is just one of loads of singers that sound exactly the same as they did over 30 years ago. im british and i love to see her. her husky voice made her the singer she is today.

[@brianmortensen7933]

What a night this would have been! Kim Carnes AND J.D. Souther, talking about their music. Thanks for posting THIS!

[@GypsyKimm]

You're welcome! :)

[@ramonrojas5816]

Love to see her performing with Rod Stewart again. That would be the greatest raspy-voice act.

[@pauloeduardo.comeduardosan5863]

Muito obrigado Kin Carnes por fazer parte da minha infância através dessas suas canções maravilhosas. Eu tinha 5 anos apenas quando essa música começou a tocar nas rádios e ficava encantado quando tocava essa música. Pena que esse tempinho lindo da minha vida passou muito rápido. Hoje o que me resta é saudade.

[@tomwesley6714]

Wow, this is great! I always loved Kim Carnes! What a talent!

[@stephanle9510]

One of my all time favorite artists and songs!! So much respect for this lady!!❤️❤️

[@MM-sn6ft]

in June I of 81 we herd Kim carnes sing Bettie Davis at a construction site everyone working stopped and listened

[@tufur08]

Kim Carns has made her place in our culture even if you don't like her music.

[@antsbull3370]

Wow, she sounds great - and that guitarist is stunning - have never heard him before, but he played it beautifully.

[@Jose_ela_dela]

Envelheceu, más tá uma velhinha linda! Uma pena que esse maldito tempo também fez com ela o que faz com absolutamente TUDO o que é orgânico e vivo! Más continua cantando muuuuuiiiiiitoooooooo! E o que chama a atenção é que, quando ela canta ao vivo, mesmo depois de décadas, se percebe facilmente que é a Kim Carnes cantando a sua própria música! Não se precisa vê-la para saber que é ela! Basta ouvi-la cantar, mesmo sem enxergá-la, para saber que é ela cantando! A sua voz não alterou quase nada em função das décadas que se passaram! É inconfundível! E também o fato dela não precisar que sua voz seja alterada eletronicamente para que ela cante na gravação do disco/cd, como sabemos que ocorre muito por aí, com uma porrada de... "cantores"! Sua linda voz rouca, más, devido ao seu talento, perfeitamente apropriada para as músicas que canta, continua mesmo após décadas, praticamente idêntica a quando era a jovem cantora que gravou "Bette Davis eyes" em 1981!

Thanks for sharing this great moment. An unique voice for one of my most emblematic songs of the 80's.

[@linotom1887]

[@eugenepowe1117]

Perfect performance and still got it going on and still love her voice just like back in the summer of 1980 when I first heard "More Love" originally done by Smokey Robinson and the Miracles back in the 1960s. Brings back great memories.

[@juanaluzmariacarrero4804]

One benefit of having such a raspy voice- she sounds the same as she did 30 years ago What a classy and talented lady!! I love this song so much.

I love Kim Carnes. Voyeur was one of my favorite albums of all time, the soundtrack for that year it came out. Bette Davis' Goddaughter told me Bette Davis LOVED this song, but when she first heard it she said, "Oh that poor woman. That voice!"
