Book Of Miracles
Two part question here:
1) Am I the only one that realized that "Juliet", the Stevie demo, is in fact Book Of Miracles with words? 2) Which version do you like better? Which should have been released (in whatever capacity whether a B-Side or album track)? -Brian

Re: Book Of Miracles

The similarity isn't all that apparent to most people, probably. Essentially, it's the chord progression that is identical; the guitar riffs on "Juliet" are different, & the rollicking Hornsby piano helps hide the similarity, as well. Fleetwood Mac's "Juliet" is vastly different from the released "Juliet" that Rupert Hine concocted. It's a power-chorded riff throughout & some kick-ass rhythm courtesy of Fleetwood & McVie. I prefer the Fleetwood Mac "Juliet" to either "Book of Miracles" (elevator music) or Mirror's "Juliet" (bad Rupert Hine mix). As for Stevie's demo for "Juliet," I haven't thought twice about it. |

Let us not forget that Stevie actually sings the words "book of miracles" twice. I mean, it's pretty much impossible that the two weren't different incarnations of each other in the Tango sessions.

Book of Miracles is so awesome!!
I LOVE the instrumental Book of Miracles, I DO NOT like Juliet. Sorry. I didn't notice the similarity until Brian pointed it out, because I'm just not good at that sort of thing. I heard BOM first and just recently heard Juliet for the first time.

Ok...
1) Am I the only one that realized that "Juliet", the Stevie demo, is in fact Book Of Miracles with words?
I figured that out when I heard "Book Of Miracles" in about 5 seconds...lol... 2) Which version do you like better? Which should have been released (in whatever capacity whether a B-Side or album track)? I actually like "Book Of Miracles" better than Stevie's version of "Juliet"...I also like the 'Mac outtake of "Juliet" though, Just "Book Of Miracles" sounds MUCH better!!!...Brian

Well, I love the music for Book Of Miracles... but I love the lyrics for Juliet too. If they could have combined the two a little better, it would have rocked!

Now that I listen more closely, I *think* it may actually be the same drum track. Hmm, I'm going to try to take Laura's advice and actually put them together. I'll post my results a little later in the evening. -Brian

IT'S ALIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVEEEEEEEEEE
I HAVE DONE IT!!!!!
Ah such minor accomplishments bring such joy. I joined the "Juliet" demo and the instrumental as one. Imagine how absolutely KICK-ASS this song would've been!! And if too many people download it and you get a silly red message from Geocities, just wait (I believe it's one hour) and it'll be ready to go again: http://www.geocities.com/bri3047/REA...f_Miracles.mp3 So? Did I do well or what? Hehehehe... -Brian

Brian... that's awesome! :-D
How on Earth did you accomplish that!? And it's pretty amazing how well those two tracks merge. Thanks! Johnny Stew

I am unable to hear it also. And I have an iMac, so can't right click. I will try back later because I *REALLY* can't wait to hear it!
I LOVE Book Of Miracles. And when OSOTM came out, I loved Juliet. But it did seem like it was lacking something. But it seemed to have a lot of potential. I hate to say, but I am not a big Rupert Hine fan. I would have loved to hear OSOTM produced by someone else. I also wonder about the songs he selected for it, and didn't select (I heard Stevie say in an interview she let him pick from her demos). I only have one demo for Juliet and it seems like it must be one from OSOTM era. It sounds very similar to the album version. But I do like it a little better, and it again just made me feel it had so much potential (just like the song That Made Me Stronger has potential, but I am not overly crazy about it). But she does seem to sing it a bit more on the demo than just speak it. You know? To hear BOM and Juliet merged together! Wow! I hope I am able to pull it up later. I really am dying to hear it! Plus, I never heard a FM Juliet demo version. I bet it's really cool... Last edited by Ghosty; 06-28-2002 at 09:56 AM.. |
