That's wild, I was just looking at this the other day! I had just finished reading about how Joni Mitchell came to buy a dulcimer, and how it was tuned for "California"; I found a video of her playing it on YouTube, and there must have been a tag that led me to this Cyndi/Ann video. Cyndi shows off some effortless high notes, and lovely, full lows. I think she has taken really good care of her body and her voice.
It is pretty wild to see Nancy power strumming next to the dulcimer, and Ann's hair is unreal!

Wow. Cool. Thanks for posting ! Ann's hair could make Marge Simpson jealous. Somehow I missed her mile high bouffant phase.

Christ, Ann looks like a bloated Elvira in that clip. And I love her, but man, that hair :[

I enjoyed that, though. That song will always be awesome.

Dude. Ann is a bloated Elvira. Since about 1985. God Bless Her. One of the best singers alive.

I love Ann dearly, and have for 30 years ! Her hair though, it has really run the gamut over the years. This Marge Simpson thing might be the ultimate.

Thanks for playing, even with my typo that messed up the rhyme.

One of my favorite songs ever! Thanks for posting!

Wow, Ann Wilson reminds me of Divine in Hairspray!

I agree, Ann looks ridiculous. I just posted the other video of them singing Water's Edge from the same show: http://youtube.com/watch?v=yQJ3g2PFLi4

Beautiful!

Their voices are well matched - their sizes, not so.

Has anyone seen that Joni Mitchell tribute that was aired like 3-4 years ago? I can't remember exactly what or where it was (I think I saw it on Bravo) but Cyndi did a version of "Carey" that made me weep! It was absolutely stunning. I'm going to try to find it...

Yeah, I love Ann Wilson to death, but she is in serious need of a fashion makeover. She has beautiful shiny, black hair. Why oh why does she subject it to such punishment? Nancy's still a major hottie. My husband's in love with her.
