And how much of SYW does she not like? Sometimes Stevie gets a bee in her bonnet about something in particular, & then over time that single bee grows into an entire hive, & the next thing you know, we're all being attacked by killer African bees. |

Every now and then, but mostly for just one or two songs here or there at any one time. I was really digging "Tusk" and "Say Goodbye" the other night.
Yes, most of my listening these days has been Guided By Voices. It's a Dayton thing, you wouldn't understand. Actually, most people in Dayton don't understand, either.

In that 5 words thread, I was thinking how Angel is so superb, because I wanted to quote every line of the song. And it's kind of funny to me that Stevie has not really seemed to love Angel as much as her fans do. She doesn't dislike it, but she doesn't seem to take it that serioiusly. I know that she is proud of Sara, but I don't know that she thinks Angel is exceptional. Overall though, I think she's proud of her Tusk songs, if not the whole album. I guess she likes Mirage. Don't think she likes Tango. As for the White Album (although, to soothe Chili's woes, I think that I will also call it Fleetwood Mac '75), I think she doesn't feel fully represented on that album and Crystal was old to her by then (that meddlesome John), so that's probably not her favorite either. Hmmm. SYW. I don't know if she likes any of it. I'd like to hear her talk more about the songs in detail, but Thrown Down is one of her greater triumphs IMO. When she points out how Lindsey was feeling up her leg and telling her he was awed by Ilume, she didn't add that she felt like smacking him silly for ruining the song, so she might like that one. Is it a sign that she thought about doing DR and RTTG live that maybe those are among her favorites? I don't really know how Stevie feels. SYW was the single because it was most pop. But does Stevie like it? People say that SYW (the song) is not really her, but I think she wrote it that way on purpose to fulfill Christine's role and I appreciate that, her ability to write "as needed." I also think the lyrics are piercing, if not opaque. "Something in you brought out something in me that I've never been since." Whoa. My heart is all tied up. Plus, I wasn't exactly impervious to the way she and Lindsey got nose to nose during the live performances of that tune. And the lasso dance -- well, the song that brought us that must be revered.

Reading this about you can't have me unless you take my BFF actually reminded me of Lindsey's ultimatum to FM about bringing in Stevie into the band. It was a package deal. I kind of see the same type of similarities here in a way.

Still, I bring it up because I think you raise an interesting point about that time in the band. There, Mick was not the one making the ultimatum. He, Christine and John were together no matter what. The question was who would join them. Here, it's a little different. Last we heard, Stevie was saying that she, Mick, Lindsey and John were NOT going to be together, unless they did something that she wanted. So, that's the contrast. Mick was consulting with his bandmates to expand the band and Stevie was telling the guys she isn't even going to be part of the band unless it expands. Still, Sheryl's involvement can be a little less than band member. She did mention singing on FM songs, but she also said "collaborate." If she was going to be a part of FM maybe she would have used a different term that implied a merger or partnership. A collaboration seems like something that is less than totally uniting the artist with the band. Although, come to think of it, Lindsey has described himself as collaborating with Stevie (on Gypsy) so . . . I don't know. I wonder if Sheryl thought her comment would be carried on all the wires and mentioned in 100s of newspapers -- not to mention analyzed -- across the world or if it was just a casual aside and she didn't even realize people would have inquiries about it.

Imagine if all Sheryl had to do is go, "Hey Lindsey! LOVE Tusk, especially love..." and then go on to name all nine of his songs, grin, slap him on the back and walk away. They would be golden. |

That's exactly what I was referring to back in post 163--Steuart Smith was used by the Eagles in that same manner. He isn't "an Eagle" any more than I suspect Sheryl Crow would be a member of FM on this NEW Fleetwood Mac album. This said, I suspect Sheryl will at least get a picture in the insert of the cd, maybe not the cover, and she'll probably be paid better than Steuart, because she's got a large following of her own and will help fill seats. Poor Steuart got a paycheck, a mention on the cd, including writing credits, but no pic. He has been playing and touring for them since 2001 and he still hasn't gotten wings. With all this news, with all the hand wringing and concern about the impact Sheryl could have positively or negatively on unique balancing act of the band, I think it's AMAZING that now there is finally talk of a new album coming out, rather than just a fairwell tour. Ditto on the Sheryl Crow comments to the media. If she wasn't authorized for this stuff to come out, her comments spread like wildfire across the internet. Makes you think people are already excited that something NEW is coming, even if it's only one internet website coping the info from another. |

What Lindsey did say in Destiny Rules was "if there was even a chance" that Stevie might not want to tour beyond the initial 40 dates, then he couldn't afford it. He stated that, in order to be able to recoup his losses, the band would have to do a "much longer tour" and record another album and tour again. He never said she wasn't going to do a full tour, it was a "what if" scenario. Also - for all we know, when they came together initially, their managers or they negotiated the 40 city tour as part of the package and then once the idea of a double record came up, that "deal" was revisited. In the end, it is all speculation on our part. And, even if they (all of them) say something, people tend to disbelieve it and insert their own beliefs. But, it is fun to talk about. |
