Omg!!!!!!

I just heard Lindsey's ORIGINAL Peacekeeper ON THE RADIO!!!!!! NO Stevie, it was the version on that CD!!!!!!!!!!!! HOW FRICKIN COOL IS THAT?!?!?!?! I walked in the room coming from my bedroom and I had left the radio on and I come in and I hear something familiar...and I turn it up and I go OMG, PK..YAY..then I listened more and I'm all "OMG!!!!!! It's NOT the SYW version!!!!!!" I was FLOORED!!!!! LOL

It was on some radio station in Weatherford, Texas that I stumbled onto last week I think...they play a BIG TIME MIX of songs...very unique station.....anyways...

COOL!!!! :blob1::blob2:

Hey Christy that IS "omg" material!! :nod: That original version really knocked me over, and their are some elements of it that got lost in the Fleetwoodization process. I still think the FM version is stronger, and I can't go past the BN magic, but I've been listening to that original Lindse demo recently too (see my LJ) cause it's faster and a bit more aggressive!
I especially love the "se-e-ell" part - Lindsey sounds so good.

The original version easily outshines the Fleetwood Mac version. How cool would it be if radio stations everywhere started playing it?

[Sarah]

That's the only version I've heard on radio. How f'ing weird.

When I heard the CD version for the first time, I thought.. "Stevie's on this song???"

Damn, no wonder I've always liked this song as a single more than everybody else.. I've been hearing the right version the whole time.

While I like SN's harmony on the SYW version, I also really liked the ACLU disc version i think we are talking about. So, I think it would be hysterical if the original ACLU disc version got picked up in heavy rotation and became a huge hit. Talk about in your face irony!!!!!!!!!!! I would fully expect LB to call up the execs that panned his solo record and say "Take that Warner/Reprise execs. Maybe you will listen to me next time you bunch of $)&$%)(#&$&#_Q&_&%$_Q&% " In fact, I might be tempted to do it for him!!!!!!!!!!! :laugh:

Then again, we would not have gotten WTWCT if they had listened. :cool:

[CarneVaca]

Hmmm... this is very interesting. I wonder just how this version came into rotation. Perhaps Sarah can shed some light on that.

Hmm good thinking strand :D . Just think what the SYW opener would have been like without that passionate inspiration ....

There's no probs I see...
It's all fine with me...

And the lone highway
Doesn't sound so great

I was wondering that too.... I would think Reprise wouldn't be thrilled about it.

This station is new to me and it's QX FM. They never said who was singing or the name of the song either, the DJ's really don't speak much at all. They probably got a hold of that ACLU CD somehow and decided to play PK since they know FM is out with SYW. :shrug:

They seriously play a lil bit of everything...I am listening to "I Honestly Love You" (where's that barf smiley?) by Oliva Newton-John right now...I hope they play PK again...and announce it or something.

Here is their website...nothing impressive, and no way to see a playlist...but you can listen online if you install the player.

[Les]

Thanks, Christy. It's certainly interesting that they'd play that version!

Fleetwood Mac - Peacekeeper [AC/CHR Mix]

is listed in the top 30 (i think it was actually 15) on the music service that my station uses' list of AC songs for air. I'll have to go back and check the cds it came in on (2 different cds from the same company for different formats) to see if one of them is the version with just lindsey, but I do know that in my radio station's computer, we have the version with just lindsey.

We don't air it because it isn't in our format- but we continue to get the discs the new music comes on out of contract, so we rip them in and save them for production uses.

I'll double check at work tomorrow.

I heard it AGAIN today...it's really popular in Weatherford, Texas!! LOL Right now, it's Celine Dion's "Where Does My Heart Beat Now" playing...well, NOW, is Huey Lewis "Do You Believe in Love"..I am LOVING this station...a great mix of music!!

[Rhiannon191]

:shrug: I have no idea what ACLU is. :confused: Could someone please explain? Thanks!

[wondergirl9847]

ACLU = American Civil Liberties Union

Lindsey's original version of PK was on a compilation CD for that particular group. Also, Lindsey had a song "Someone's Gotta Change Your Mind" and Stevie's "Everyday" were on a compilation CD for GLAAD (Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation).

ADDING: PK just came on AGAIN a few seconds after I posted this!! LMAO!!!!!! WOW....AMAZING!!!!!

[CarneVaca]

Christy, still the solo version!? That is wild. Isn't that weird?

Rodeo, you kill me, dude. Very funny.

[seteca]

I'm glad the original version is getting so much airplay...it has SO MUCH more energy than the album version.

Imagine if they peformed it like that in the concerts!! It would R O C K!!!!:]

I know. The same for me goes for Say Goodbye. The CD cut is fast, but they play it slower in concert. But, hey, they are in their mid 50's so I cut them a little slack, esp. LB after ripping like he is 20 years old through Big Love, Come, and ISA not to mention GYOW and Tusk!!!!

;)

[wondergirl9847]

I heard it again TODAY....it plays at LEAST once a day on that station!!!

Yeah, they SHOULD play this version in concert and I agree, it has SOOOOO much energy than the SYW version.....:nod:
