Stevie Nicks songs to be used in American Horror Story: Coven
Found this on Twitter:
Ryan Murphy @MrRPMurphy Thank you Ms. Stevie Nicks for letting us use your music in COVEN! You rock and I love you. https://twitter.com/MrRPMurphy For those of you that do not know what American Horror Story is, here are some links to the show: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/America...r_Story:_Coven http://www.fxnetworks.com/ahs |
ooh nice! that is one of my favorite shows!!
|
Charmed used her songs too. So, I guess the witches ate keeping with a theme. Michele
|
Ahh, and just when I thought I couldn't get any more excited about this new season of American Horror Story!! :]
I mean, it has the following: Witches, New Orleans, Kathy Bates, and Leslie Jordan :D |

I used to like movies like AHS, but I've become a real p*ssy as I've gotten older about watching stuff like that. I wanted to watch AHS, but once I saw just the beginning credit part it was a no-go for me. :(
|
It must be New Orleans...or Rhiannon...or Sisters of the Moon...

Yes!!!! this is too awesome. I love this show and I'm so excited about this new season. The promos have been great.

It could be anything really. They used Crystal for Practical Magic and that's not a particularly witchy song on the surface.
Plus, I love the way she says "strange" on Moonlight. That sounds spooky. Michele |
Louie, you make AHS sound so enticing on paper! But the word "horror" is such an automatic turn-off for me. I have what you might call an "active" imagination and am just no good at handling the scary. Is this show one that actively tries to scare its viewers, or is it more just dark/goth-y in its aesthetic? I can deal with the latter much more easily. And I enjoy seeing Kathy Bates do just about anything.
Regardless, I'm curious to see what songs they will choose for inclusion in this as well. I found the use of Soldier's Angel in that tv-advert a few weeks ago to be quite effective, even as on-the-fence as I am about that song. |

I didn't see the second season, though. Michele |

The first season had a lot of severed or burned bodies and aborted babies. But it was intriguing too. There was this one person who looked like an older, matronly woman, a senior citizen, to most people, but, through sorcery, to Dylan McDermott she looked like a hot young french maid and the ensuing encounters between them were very amusing.

Today I went to Comic Con in Columbus Ohio. For some reason I played Sable and Blonde all day and thought about how Stevie really fits right into Comic Con. It was full of elves and superheros and horror items.
I waltzed around with Sable in Blond in my ear, very surreal and had a blast. I wish she would have her own comic book or novels, something like that. She is sooo cool. American Horror Story and Stevie, what a great combination. P.S. I finally got Linda Blairs' photo and autograph. |

They have had some good cast members. I know someone who loved Friday Night Lights and I think one reason he stopped watching is that he didn't like how AHS used Connie Britton. But they do lure you in.

But if you're squeamish, don't think it's going to be an easy ride.

The fact that they can't get musical rights keeps a lot of television from making it to DVD. That's what held up Ally McBeal's release for so long, just because they used to frequent this bar where Vonda Shepard (married to our producer Mitchell Froom) performed frequently. They couldn't get the rights to have her music in those scenes for the DVD. Of course, that's why many variety and talk shows don't get to DVD in their entirety too. The music.
I have Charmed on DVD and I think Stevie's songs were used twice in the show, but on the DVD version, it's replaced with generic music. Michele |

The "Charmed" producers had a habit of including music in the show that was current at the time and making an impact. They had some right stuff over the years - Goo Goo Dolls, The Cranberries, Tori Amos, Pink, Goldfrapp, Paula Cole, Third Eye Blind. The list goes on. Both these episodes were 2001, so "Trouble In Shangri-La" was making a small splash at the time. |

I LOVED the first season, though. I thought it was so cool you never knew who was alive or dead until the very end. It was pretty thought provoking learning about 1 building's inhabitants over several generations. Makes you wonder what stories & secrets each and every building you enter might have to tell. The fact that each season is a stand alone mini-series implementing the same actors in entirely different roles is pretty groundbreaking in my eyes. I cannot wait to see what this third season holds. :nod: |

i thought the 2nd season was fantastic!! i mean it was really f-ed up in so many ways but for some reason i liked that part of it and it kept me watching. jessica lange should have won the emmy again this year because she was freaking amazing. i liked how it ended as well so maybe give it another go, it gets better as each episode goes on.

This is another show I probably miss out do to dumping the extra cable channels.
I have to check TVFreeload for it. Its not worth paying $80 for a couple of good cable channels that I only watch. |
[From an interview with the executive producer Ryan Murphy]
Can Misty use her regenerative power to bring herself back to life? Murphy: Of course. I love her character. Her character is obsessed with Stevie Nicks. The season really is an allegory or metaphor for any minority in the country where you feel alone. She's a girl who has never known other witches. The only witch she's ever known is Stevie Nicks, so I reached out to Stevie Nicks and asked her if we could use her music. Lily has an amazing Stevie Nicks shawl twirl scene in Episode 3. We used like eight Stevie Nicks songs this year. Read more: http://www.cantonrep.com/archive/x13...#ixzz2hIFbPxu7 |
I'm really curious as to which Stevie songs they are.
Also wondering whether they are all solo or if it's a combo of solo/FM stuff. |
