Tall, Dark Handsome Stranger
- Tall, Dark Handsome Stranger
Tall, Dark, Handsome Stranger is a track performed by the rock band, Heart, for their 1990 album, "Brigade". In the song's lyrics, a woman describes how she's so sick and tired of men trying to act cool and pretending to be everything a woman might want. The chorus is directed toward a man who is different from those in her past:
:"I've had the tall, dark, handsome, stranger":"I've had the devil in disguise":"I've been attracted to the danger":"I was never satisfied":"I know what I want and I want what I see in your eyes"
This song demonstrates possibly more than any other the power of Ann Wilson's voice. Her high notes maintain the same power as her lower range, though providing the kick and grind that shows listeners how Rock and Roll really was Heart's forte.
