Lea Thompson’s Top Ten ’80s Songs
6. “Even it Up,” Heart
Thompson: I was partial to Heart because I had done The Wild Life with Cameron Crowe’s wife at the time. What’s her name?
Paste: Nancy Wilson.
Thompson: Nancy! Right. She was in The Wild Life. She played the cop’s wife. I didn’t know he was married. I immediately became the biggest fan of Heart! I recently saw them. They were amazing, still. Her sister could still sing those songs amazingly well. I love that unapologetic, sentimental, kinda crazy woman-singing … the kinda of thing you’d sing in the shower.
