I like the "Gypsy" on the Mirage video and, even more so, the acoustic one from the 2000 AHI benefit.
The one on the Mirage video is stripped down compared to the studio version, and if only for a change of pace that's okay by me. Stevie's vocal is a bit rough but she keeps in interesting by varying both the sonic and emotional tone of the delivery throughout the song. I also like Lindsey counter singing "she was just a wish" in place of "lightning strikes" on the last line. Lindsey's guitar solo at the end of both versions (as in all versions) is fantastic.

Didn’t the Soundstage producer beg her to do the song, even though she would have preferred not to?

Yes she introduces the song by saying she usually reserves it for FM performances only, but the producer specifically asked her to do it for the Soundstage show.

Just "she is dancing away from me now" is monotone (which I think works). She mixes up the delivery throughout the song, to good effect.

Aside from the looks and vocals of Nicks though, the song soars on the merits of the rest of the band. Some say Tusk was fragmented, but "Sara" comes across to me as a full on band effort. So lush and majestic that really no one minded listening to its' long running order on the radio at the time. |

Yeah, her butt was a lot bigger by then! The youthful beauty of the original Sara was long gone and the same take of that just became a wasted parody. Even her parading over to Lindsey's mic to sing the last few lines of the song was a little too cliché for me. We all appreciate a little nostalgia, BUTT....

I hate when she tries to parody herself. It's usually a big fail. Her attempts on the piano is always a horrible thing, too.
