[@RockinAllDay]

Badfinger-one of the best rock bands ever.

[@lawmantheonetrueking3739]

A disgrace Badfinger not in the R n R HoF when far too many non rock artists/ groups are. Ripped off years ago and still getting disrespected. A wonderful band who lost two great guys way too early.

[@dampergoldenrod4156]

Not only is Ann Wilson the most stupendous singer in recorded music's history but no doubt the most energy-filled women to ever sing and perform on stage the last 40+ years.

[@denisejustdenise]

Damper, you sound just like me. I think we are both correct: THE best ever recorded.

[@mikegregory5715]

As much as I love Nilsson, on this song, Heart leaves him, and every other cover, in the dust. And of all the great female rock voices - there are a bunch - Ann Wilson continues to be my personal favorite. Emotion, power, range, and soul - she has it all.

[@TheFergyme]

Oh, please. Nilsson? The man brings all the emotion to this song in spades. Something that Heart can't bring if they tried.

[@ReplbliSCUMSareSICK]

I love heart, BUT, that being said, they can't touch Harry Nillson's version, not EVEN CLOSE

[@greydogmusic]

I'll make it 3. As great as Heart is, the emotion is missing. And I believe Badfinger doesn't have the emotion in it either. Neilson nails it. Mariah is terrific, although, in my opinion, the official video the background vocals take away from the listeners identifying with her emotion. Covers her up and interrupts the listener being immersed in the experience. An older cover that shows a bit of emotion as he sort of talks his way through the song is, kzbin.info/www/bejne/pHTTe5KQn6dlnrM

[@WastedTalent-]

Nilsson didn't do this song origninally. Badfinger/The Iveys did. IMO, he butchered it. This was one of the cries for help from Pete Ham. I would love to hear Heart do it in the spirit of the original.

[@joaobabler1584]

I love her too

[@Lokisdottir1964]

This is live - this is what live sounds like when people actually have musical talent. This is something that too many current "bands" cannot accomplish because of too much reliance on pitch correctors and other studio tricks.

[@clambondingla]

I agree. And they also didn't need to say "come on!" and point the audience with the mic, in a hard-to-sing part of the song.

[@stevesimms9622]

Couldnt have said it better!

[@plurpee.]

[@tundegombkoto2491]

Saw them do this show in Hampton, VA in 1978. Was in love with Ann Wilson for years.

[@philibuster123]

This was the only thin that could make me cry when my dad died in 1978. I didn't cry at the funeral, only when this song played when we got home.

[@philibuster123]

my wife and daughter have made me cry since then when I had to return to Iraq.

[@resultarealty9977]

My family had a restaurant way back and the first time i heard it in our jukebox(i hope some of us still know what a jukebox is) in the early 80s when a customer selected this song - i was freakin' blown away! Ann's voice got me emotional and she became my instant crush(even to date 😊). There isn't anyone like her - beautiful, good sense of humor, humble yet confident, above all - talented & gifted.

Raro BONITO e inesquecivel está super BANDA e as duas incríveis IRMÃS quantas contribuições Para a Boa música Mundial ..

[@stewarttrickett3033]

Interesting that Harry Nillson's interpretation has become the standard, rather than the original Bad Finger.

[@RockinAllDay]

Had they released their version as a single, it might've become an actual decently-known version.

[@olderendirt]

Sometimes someone else's interpretation is better than the writer's. Or maybe not better, but just different. It seems Nilsson and Badfinger knew each other so maybe their members had a hand in his production or gave approval of his interpretation. I think he did a marvelous job and I was very surprised to learn he hadn't written it. Badfinger is a great band as is Heart, but I prefer Badfinger's and Harry Nilsson 's, especially the latter.

[@chios.m.3757]

Amo la voz de Ann, y esta canción es maravillosa.❤️

[@celestiatv8546]

I've always loved Ann Wilson's voice. Love all her songs - "Stairway to heaven", "All I wanna do (is make love to you)", and everything on HEART's 1980s albums - it was the peak of their career, and Ann's voice was at its best then. But when it comes to this one particular song, I'm afraid I'll have to make an exception. It's Air Supply who did this song the best. Their version of "Without you" was the first I heard in my part of the world and they really rocked the song. Air Supply forever!

[@johndelisle5728]

Great great job heart

[@guitarmissy8830]

Yea but the members of Badfinger OPENLY ADMITTED that Nilson's cover was much better than their original version, plus they appreciated the "Royalties", :)

[@thomsboys77]

ReplbliSCUMSareSICK They didn’t receive any royalties from the song during their lifetime. They were both penniless when they died, it was only in recent years when the estates of both writers finally started receiving their share

[@chryslercorners]

I know a woman who is 29 now but, when I met her she was 28 and she reminds me so much of Ann who was 28 at the time of this recording. So beautiful! Long dark hair, brown eyes, and the most knock out smile that lights up a room. Her personality was even more beautiful than her looks and that's saying something! I always called her my Ann Wilson look alike

[@denisejustdenise]

Thank you, Stephanie! Heart's recording of this song highlights our, our as in flute players, (although the term flautist is more widely known, but I like flutist better for the obvious reason of its pronunciation being prettier), beautiful vibrato that is naturally used in vocals as well. For hideous, choppy non-vibrato give Stevie Nicks and/or Dolly Parton a listen. 😆

Wel, Mariah Carey... Ann beats her any time any place. Cannot compare there pipes.

[@howardbreauxii811]

Mariah has a great set of pipes technically, but her phrasing and every other aspect of her singing sucks. And as God and everyone saw on New Years Eve she has to lip sync all the high notes these days, lol.

[@Tropia]

What I hate about Mariah Carey is she refuses to hold a single note, always singing scales instead, it's so exhausting listening to her, I don't find her impressive. Mariah take one note, any note, just one time and make it yours, I've got the feeling she can't.

[@jaywest3734]

That is your opinion and you're entitled to it. 40 million records sold since the original lineup left says you're wrong, but you're still entitled to your opinion.

have to disagree with you sorry

[@WithaJoeFro]

Totally disagree. Mariah is a pop singer and she sings a pop version of this. Ann and Heart are a rock band and they sing this as a rock ballad which IMO is better, but it's a matter of preference. Technically Mariah is a fine singer, but as we heard last New Years eve she is 80% lip synching and trickery instead of being the real deal.

[@joeversical5273]

Heart is my all time favorite female vocal band. I am talking about one song, two different venues, and I stand by my opinion That's all it is. I saw Heart in concert last year.... probably would never by a ticket to see Mariah Carey.
