Mid-Week Songs

 

Happy 73rd birthday to singer and half of the band Heart, Ann Wilson. With her sister and guitarist Nancy, Heart formed in Seattle in 1973 and 50 million record sales later were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2013. Here is Heart, with Ann Wilson's powerful voice, on 1987's "Alone."


And, just for fun, Stephen Colbert did a video satire of the unhinged Malignant Loser's memory gap when he misidentified his doctor, the disgraced pill-pusher Ronny Jackson, as "Ronny Johnson." Then, British duo The Ting Tings with "That's Not My Name," the song that inspired Colbert's satire (also, her name is Katie White).
