re: Heart Rocker Nancy Wilson ‘Embarrassed’ to Be an American, Fans Suggest She Leave

I don’t dispute that Nixon’s team was involved in some way, but plenty of historians have disputed the extent and impact, and that the talks were that close to shutting things down.

The poster I responded to accused me of making it up. I most certainly did not. You can deny it happened, and you can be a partisan hack, but at least I didn't make it up.

Nixon was a lying, dirty crook.

The guy I really feel for is Gerald Ford. He wasn't even elected, and he had to sit in the middle of LBJ, Nixon and Carter. Probably the worst string of presidents we ever had in our history.

Yes. And Linda Ronstadt was also better.

Here's why you thought they were Canadian:


Heart is not a Canadian band in origin, but they have a significant connection to Canada. The band was formed in Seattle, Washington, USA, and initially included members like Steve Fossen and brothers Roger and Mike Fisher. However, due to Mike Fisher's draft evasion during the Vietnam War, the band relocated to Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, where they spent a significant period and recorded their debut album, "Dreamboat Annie," in 1976.

During their time in Vancouver, Heart toured extensively across Canada and were often perceived as a Canadian band due to their presence and popularity there, partly aided by Canadian content rules that favored their music on local radio stations. Despite this, the core members, including sisters Ann and Nancy Wilson, are American, with Ann born in San Diego and Nancy in San Francisco.

And have y’all heard her and Nancy’s (as The Lovemongers ) cover of Zeppelin’s The Battle of Evermore? It’s horrendous.
