Winter in the city, the year is running dry
New Year's resolutions so perfect in the mind
Gon' lose this blue addiction of mine

Me, I work long hours, first to come and last to go
I walk by Christmas windows full of things I'll never own
Things I cannot give you, my fortune's set in stone

How beautiful the falling snow, it hushes on the world
And heals the melancholy heart, how beautiful, how beautiful
A candle in the window, it dances and it swirls
How beautiful the snow tonight, how beautiful the world
How beautiful

For some the table's laid and others are denied
Makes my love run deeper when I see how hard you tried
And just like you, the snow falls silent in the night

How beautiful the falling snow, it hushes on the world
And heals the melancholy heart, how beautiful
How beautiful a candle in the window, it dances and it swirls
How beautiful the snow tonight, how beautiful the world

Beautiful
How beautiful

How beautiful, beautiful
How beautiful, beautiful
How beautiful, beautiful

How beautiful
How beautiful, beautiful
How beautiful, beautiful
Beautiful

How beautiful, how beautiful
Beautiful, beautiful
How beautiful, beautiful

Heart

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.
