No need standing in the rain
Just call me down to where you are
That icy wind will bring the pain
And I don't care if it's far

Don't sit crying in your room
Stealing candy from the jar
I will be there very soon
In my red velvet car

Maybe you got hit real hard
Maybe you are on the floor
People screaming out your name
'Cause they don't trust you anymore

I'm coming for you
I'm coming for you
I'm coming for you
I'm coming, oh yeah

I'm coming for you
I'm coming for you
I'm coming for you
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm coming
Yeah, yeah

So pull your weary bones inside
You can sleep while I drive
Watch the moonlight on the lake
I won't even touch the brake
In my red velvet car

My red velvet car
My red velvet car

Heart, lead by Ann and Nancy Wilson, is considered a — or the — Grand Dame of hard rock and heavy metal.

Not only do they have more hit singles and AOR tracks than most other bands (songs we’d go over in detail but they’re listed on this very page in order of popularity) but in some ways deeper respect than many, both for their own groundbreaking talent and appeal and some unusual recognition thereof, including having been picked to perform Stairway to Heaven for Led Zeppelin themselves at the Kennedy Center Honors in 2012, making Robert Plant and company actually cry. Not Rush, not Aerosmith, nor any of the other bands beloved rock/metal that — along with Ann and Nancy’s band — followed Zeppelin by one generation. Just Heart.

Starting in the mid seventies, Heart forged a unique and powerful sound outstanding in their field, and was unusual in topping the charts well into their own second decade in the late eighties, becoming a staple of MTV’s rotation, albeit sometimes crammed by the industry into music videos that the bandmates despised and comment on to this day.
