Nancy Wilson<\/strong> paid tribute to early Heart manager Mike Fisher<\/strong> two months after his death.<\/p>\n In an entry in her Something Good<\/em> fan email, the legendary Heart guitarist and vocalist shared new song lyrics she wrote for Fisher, who was the brother of founding guitarist Roger Fisher <\/strong>and the former boyfriend of her sister and bandmate Ann. She also shared details on Heart’s history with Fisher.<\/p>\n \u201c[Mike Fisher] was the perfect catalyst for instigating and navigating with his sharp business brain to help our band get a foothold and a good start in the business of rock,” Wilson shared with fans, per Ultimate Classic Rock<\/a>.<\/em> “He was a real task master in the best possible way and even designed the classic Heart logo that is still the best of them all to this day.”<\/p>\n “Recently, his brother Roger Fisher let us know that sadly, Mike was in rapid decline suffering from pancreatic cancer,” she continued. “I thought it would be a good thing for Mike to hear a voicemail where I could say thank you, for all the great things he did for the legacy of Heart and how it still is so vital and meaningful in rock history to this day. So I did. I heard back how much he loved and appreciated hearing that. It meant really a lot to him.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cHe left us too soon and I thought of a song to honor him,\u201d Wilson added, before sharing lyrics to a new song, which appears to have a chorus of \u201cAngel.\u201d Wilson did not share the title of the song.<\/p>\n Ann Wilson <\/strong>dated Mike Fisher for most of the 1970s. In an interview with\u00a0American Songwriter,<\/a><\/em> she confirmed that Heart\u2019s iconic 1975 song \u201cMagic Man\u201d was about Fisher and her decision to move from Seattle to Canada to be with him.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s absolutely my leaving home song,\u201d she confirmed. \u201cMy mother wasn\u2019t all too sure that the best thing for me was to\u2014even though I was already 21, she wasn\u2019t sure that I should be jumping into this full-time sexual cohabitational relationship with somebody in a whole other country. And she was calling me, going, \u2018What are you up to? C\u2019mon, I don\u2019t know if you should be going this. Come on back! Be careful, give it some thought!\u2019 And I was just like, \u2018Nope, nope, I\u2019m gone! I\u2019m in!\u2019”<\/p>\n “And it was love at first sight that lasted for about eight years!” the singer added. “But \u2018Magic Man\u2019 was definitely written about the spell that I was under and my conversations with my mother about it at the time.\u201c<\/p>\n Following Fisher\u2019s death in August 2025, Ann posted a throwback photo from her time with him.\u00a0“Michael lived life fully and loved completely,\u201d she captioned the photo on Instagram<\/a>. \u201cNow he is taking his long journey to the next incarnation he always believed would come. He was a beautiful human\u2026a profound soul\u2026.a divine spirit. Bon voyage, my old love.”<\/p>\n \ud83c\udfa4<\/strong>SIGN UP for our The Voice newsletter to get access to exclusive news, interviews, insider info, sneak peeks & more<\/strong><\/a>\ud83c\udfa4<\/strong><\/p>\n This story was originally reported by Parade<\/a> on Nov 2, 2025, where it first appeared in the News<\/a> section.
