Seems like weird requests but that’s what she said. She also mentioned having some sort of nasal surgery, too.

I think the close ups of her look really great. She’s wearing colorful dresses and her hairstyles are (mostly) flattering. And I like the way the pictures on the wall are the backgrounds for her when she’s singing.

But I can’t argue about the sax playing or the dancing. That’s actually pretty amusing, I think.

Yes but you are quoting Stevie when she was not well. I think there is a two seconds of a tambourine in I Cant Wait. Her close ups in I Cant Wait were ridiculous with all those fans blowing on her. I also think that is the only video where she looks high. She says on the recap of the video why she could not have stayed off the drugs and tequila for 3 days before the shoot. She was such a mess. Look what a mess she was in Austalia partying and promoting I Cant Wait for MTV Australia.

I think there is too much ballet dancing in In Anyone Falls. But I love the ending with Stevie in the movie theater and she walking into the theater. I dont know why but that was a cool yet simple effect. What I meant by Lindsey being in Paper Doll is that they put his Seven Wonders footage in the video which was weird IMHO. So they were giving him a tribute?

You forgot Sometimes Its A Bitch

Sometimes its roses
Sometimes its weeds

I always think of you when I hear that song.

My favorite vid is “Dragonfly” on the Beat-Club. It isn’t that the green screen or the videographic effects are great but that the whole thing just goes right to my mind and my heart. In 2023, it feels lifetimes past. Makes me think of everything that was and everything that might have been — and all the people gone (three in the video are dead). The video effect makes them look like apparitions in one’s memory, and the camera pan just feels so nebulous, like life. You want to reach out to each of them and grab them and hold them still for a second, but they elude any attempt to fix them for even a few seconds to get your fill.

The other vids I like — including “If You Ever Did Believe” and “Little Lies” — don’t have much to recommend them as classics, but they’re OK to rewatch every five years.

We can only hope there was a video for Two Kinds Of Love that was never shown

Apparently there was a video for Unconditional Love when it was slated for the first single off Street Cardboard but rumour has it she destroyed it in a fit of rage when Walgreens lost her klonopin prescription.

Is there a alt version of Stand Back floating out there?

An excellent selection, sir.

It's not a music video per se since the song wasn't a single, but you gotta love "Angel" from the Tusk documentary.

It's hard to choose an actual music video featuring Lindsey since he is surely one of the absolute worst video lip synchers of all time.

In that case perhaps M Night Shyamalan makes an appearence in the Everywhere video, seeing as he inserts himself in his films.

Yeah but Piggy through the keyhole and Piggy In The Middle gets me everytime.
Wrong is all about his blowout with the band at Chris's house and how Mick got it WRONG.
I think the video is brilliant. The guy playing piggy in the middle playing aka Mick should have won an award or something

Ugh- Walgreens is the worst LOL!

I am surprised there wasn’t a video for Two Kinds of Love, I mean it was publicized as Stevie’s next Leather and Lace and the record company had to know it was going to be a single. Who knows, a video might have helped the single chart.

The Unconditional Love video would be interesting to see. I wonder if it was filmed but never actually put together for a final product, once they realized it wasn’t going to be a single?

I forgot about Sometimes It’s a Bitch. That is kind of a sad video. It’s interesting Stevie chose to use the same set on her Talk to Me video for the scenes where she’s by herself, complete with the same pictures on the wall, if I remember correctly.
