Pick the *1* song you think Stevie will do for the benefit

[SapphireSister]

Since this is going around in a couple different threads I thought I'd start one on just this topic. If you had to pick one song you think she'll do what would it be and why? Then at the end we can see who was right :).

[Neal]

'I Can't Wait'

[LilyRose]

Paper Doll.

:laugh:

Seriously though...HAEWAFY.


Susie

[StevieNicksEO17]

Paper Doll.

Holy crap, I wish.

Probably Landside or HAEWAFY.

HAEWAFY - she said she wanted to do it for NYC on 9/11.

Interestingly, I wonder of Crowe or Buckingham will join her. Cuz ya know Mick is gonna be there :laugh:

[Rickypt]

I think it will be a cover song that she's never done before. Something like "Help".

[chiliD]

Like I said in the other thread..."No Spoken Word"


...and the wind & the rain and the WATER-R-R-R-R-R!

[Livia]

HAEWAFY :angel:

[ontheEdgeof17]

Circle Dance

Landslide

or

HAEWAFY


Longshots:

Unconditional Love <3333
Street Angel
Somebody Stand By Me

[estranged4life]

I will have to go the different route:

"Rock N Roll" (Her cover of the Led Zep classic)

[dissention]

Has Anyone Ever Written Anything For You. No doubt about it.

[LiquidBlue5000]

Longshots:

Unconditional Love <3333
Street Angel
Somebody Stand By Me


u call those longshots, eh?? i would call those miracles ;)

... your Street Angel love never ceases to amaze me :xoxo:

[GypsyAsh]

I totally think she should cover 'Me and Bobby Mcgee'..
It just fits....
busted flat in baton rouge....waitin for a train.... and i was feelin as faded as my jeaaaaaaaaaaans..
bobby flagged a deisel down.. just before it rained.. it drove us all the way to new orleaaaans...
woo wee... i'd love to hear Stevie sing that... everyone would get a kick out of it too...

just my opinion..
ciao!
Ash

[SapphireSister]

I'm thinking she may do a cover or perhaps not a solo performance at all. Maybe do a song with a bunch of other people on stage at the same time.

[ontheEdgeof17]

... your Street Angel love never ceases to amaze me :xoxo:


Maybe Love Will Change Your Mind....(about the album) ;)

[GarboSpeaks!]

"Has Anyone Ever Written Anything For You"...she can say this is for the survivors of the disaster...it is "for them"...will totally go over.
I hope I can swing plane fare and tix for this for my Birthday gift to me :)
Hope to see some of you there!

*Barbara*

[danax6]

Most definitely 'Has Anyone Ever Written Anything For You'. Beautiful. :)

[AliceLover]

Maybe Beauty and the Beast. She knows its been a show stopper at her recent concerts. I think theres a good chance for that........and the hideous outfit.

[Stephanie]

I think Landslide. I feel like she would to sing something mass numbers of people are familiar with. Then I think she will be part of a multi-artist finale. But I really think that would be it, even though I am hoping for more.

[reebokandlace]

I think performing Landslide would be in very very poor taste.

HAEWAFY/DREAMS/RHIANNON would be a much better...anything but landslide.


PS- i love the song landslide, just not for a natural disaster benefit.

I still think she might do it due to popularity. Or Dreams.

[GypsySorcerer]

HAEWAFY, though I could see a duet with one of the other performers.

[Stevie_Buck]

I wished Beautiful Child...
But I'm going to have to say def. Landslide. :nod:

[mylittledemon]

Probably Landslide.

[Nicksluvver]

I think HAEWAFY will be in the set. Circle Dance might be too soon after Jess's death or it could be a healing song to sing - so who knows? I wish I could go - I just moved from NYC to FLA !! PLease please someone post clips

[LiquidBlue5000]

I seriously doubt Stevie Nicks will pick a Bonnie Rait cover to sing as a song to represent her solo career... no doubt it will either be Stand Back, HAEWAFY, or Landslide...

[Nicksluvver]

I seriously doubt Stevie Nicks will pick a Bonnie Rait cover to sing as a song to represent her solo career... no doubt it will either be Stand Back, HAEWAFY, or Landslide...

If she gets to do 2 songs - my 2 top picks are HAEWAFY and Stand Back

[LiquidBlue5000]

If she gets to do 2 songs - my 2 top picks are HAEWAFY and Stand Back


most likely :nod:

[Nicksluvver]

most likely :nod:

I was looking at the performers list and I think it will get longer as this event gets closer. I hope she does get to do 2 songs, but when it comes Stevie I am happy no matter how long shes up there! I wish I could go!

[Karlie]

HAEWAFY. And Stand Back if she gets to do 2 songs.

I really hope it's not Landslide.

[Hawkeye]

I dont get why everys so hung up on Landslide being offensive. I think Dreams with Rain washing you clean is far worse. Landslide talks about snow covered hills and reflections and hell sure Landsldies, but there werent any freaking Landslides in New Orleans, just lots and lots of toxic rain. Landslide to me wont be remotely wrong to preform.

[Nicksluvver]

[eclipse]

I can bet with most confidence.....It will not be STORMS ;)
don't think Landslide either (also not appropriate)
Sara with the "drownding" line...nope
Boy when you think about her songs and lyrics there sure is a lot of references to:

rain
wind
sea
ocean
river
twister
even in The Nightmare she sings about a hurricane (although she didn't write this tune-it deserves mention)

With that in mind I think she will sing a new song that she will have written for the occasion-like Illume for 9/11

only this will be for the Katrina Survivors...
That's my story and I am sticking with it!

[pastalady]

I was thinking about this last night...Stevie has never gone out on a limb on stage, it's just not her way...she sticks with the songs that she knows work. I highly doubt you'll see her pulling pulling "Sleeping Angel" out of her back pocket, but that would be my wish...
If she does a short set, I hope she doesn't open with "Outside the RAIN", and "LANDSLIDE" is just another natural disaster, "Silver Springs"?not with the 'ocean crashing' line, "Stand BAck"? naa..'it's alright to be standin' in a line', they did enough of that,
I think she's only left with Dreams, Rhiannon, and HAEWAFY

[skcin]

What I'd like her to do: Somebody Stand By Me

What she will do: HAEWAFY :nod:

[Villavic]

I can bet with most confidence.....It will not be STORMS ;)
don't think Landslide either (also not appropriate)
!

I agree, though I love those songs.

so.. Stand Back rocks, so it's an option. Gypsy could be cool also.

[Raeven Skye]

I totally agree with everyone's summation: HAEWAFY (most likely), but if she wanted to take it in a different direction, Stand Back would rock, EO17, would also rock. I hadn't considered Gypsy, but that would be really cool. If Lindsay and Mick will be there, I wonder if there'll be a "Mini-Mac" song...

[lagringader&r]

Definitely Landslide but I'll go one further and say BATB.

[Nicksluvver]

What I'd like her to do: Somebody Stand By Me

What she will do: HAEWAFY :nod:

That would be awesome, and I would love to see her do it again with Sheryl !!

[reebokandlace]

Landslide talks about snow covered hills and reflections and hell sure Landsldies, but there werent any freaking Landslides in New Orleans, just lots and lots of toxic rain. Landslide to me wont be remotely wrong to preform.

I think the reason some people feel it would be in poor taste is a landslide is a destructive force of nature.

During a landslide homes slide down just as peoples homes slid into the Gulf. The visual imagery would be too painful.

No it wasn't a landslide in NO, but still it would rub a lot of people the wrong way. Twister and Storms would also be inapproprate. But most fans know it is unlikely that she would perform either of those two, but Landslide has a good possibilty.

America is watching this one---not just SN fans.

[bikerchic]

Besides, how do you have a landslide with "snow covered hills", that's an avalanche :shrug: :rolleyes: (you can thank Paula's husband for pointing that out :laugh: :wavey: )

[catinthedark]

Yup - another vote for Has Anyone Ever Written Anything For You.

I really, really hope she doesn't do Landslide. Don't care if it is about snow covered hills, or mud consuming life (as in a real landslide) - wouldn't be appropriate.

So, HAEWAFY... or a cover not yet mentioned here.

[SapphireSister]

Ok after seeing the first few acts in this benefit there is no way she's doing Stand Back. They are all doing slow, emotional songs. She'll do something touching. Stand Back is not touching. Looks like HAEWAFY is the best choice at this point.

[paperflowers]

hawafy is most likely imo...Illume would be cool and appropriate prolly wont happen though

[desertangel]

Since I don't have a crystal ball, I don't know what she will sing, but I know what I think would be kewl for her to sing and that is Touched By An Angel.

Laura

[rojorisin]

I think Illume would be GREAT and appropriate. A chance for something new from her (to the public) and basically what she wrote the song for...surviving a great tragedy. Even the mood of the song would be appropriate.

That's my vote as unlikely as it is.

[catinthedark]

I think Illume would be GREAT and appropriate. A chance for something new from her (to the public) and basically what she wrote the song for...surviving a great tragedy. Even the mood of the song would be appropriate.

My initial reaction was, she can't do Illume. It was written about New York City and Sept. 11th. But, actually, the words really would be quite relevant. All the stuff about coastal cities and rivers... I guess the question would be whether Stevie would be comfortable taking a song so clearly written for Sept. 11th and singing it in response to another tragedy. Know what I mean? I tihnk it would work perfectly well - and certainly there are millions of people who have no clue it was written in response to Sept. 11th. They might think she whipped it up just for Katrina. But I guess it's all about whether Stevie would feel comfortable doing it.

[hopesong]

My vote is for HAEWAFY and I am thinking she may also do "Whenever I Call You Friend" with Kenny Loggins since Loggins and Messina are also on the bill for the benefit.

Krista

[Kelly]

I don't think Stevie and Kenny Loggins are too friendly nowadays.

[UnwindedDreams]

Well she is supposed to sing a heartfelt tune, so I would say she will probably sing Has Anyone ever Written Anything For You or Landslide( to the discussion about natural disaster songs, it does not matter, people are not going to look for disaster related words). But on the radio they said Fleetwood Mac was going to be there and I think Sara would be very appropriate and I would die if they did it. :nod:

[Glittermoondust]

HAEWAFY--hands down :) IMO Landslide doesn't fit........it's too much about herself........ Although the When the rains come down--there's no pain and there's no doubt (HAEWAFY)--kind of doesn't fit either...... hopefully she will surprise us all and sing something totally unexpected......... I think she will do 1 song and then everyone will do a song together at the end...... Is this going to be broadcast does anyone know???

[AliceLover]

[Glittermoondust]

Sara could work.

Drownin' in the sea of love.........where everyone would love to drown........

nope........... :shocked:

[Ghost_Tracker]

I'd LOVE to say "Planets of the Universe" but I don't think enough people

have heard it. . . .

But how about "Trouble in Shangri-la?"

Gotta admit HAEWAFY sounds most likely, though. :nod:

[LiquidBlue5000]

Drownin' in the sea of love.........where everyone would love to drown........

nope........... :shocked:


:lol: :laugh: :lol: omg, that would be terrible!!

[Stevie_Buck]

Illume would be good, but how well would it transfer to stage?
Didn't they have a lot of studio enhancement and technical stuff on that one?
Maybe I'm wrong...

With the Stand Back... Nah, I just don't think she'll do an upbeat song at all.
Maybe she will. Maybe they'll try to make it upbeat, but I just don't see that happening.

What I feel they may end up doing is taking a song... something in the league of "Lean On Me" and breaking it into parts (as someone mentioned before).

But... the question is...
Will there be a DVD or CD?
I think there probably will be since they're trying to raise money.
I hope so!
Maybe a single of the hypothetical group song? :laugh:

My vote goes to "Beautiful Child..."
Although the lyrics don't fit the situation, it's a slower song that doesn't mention natural disasters. :p

Ehh... the more I think about it... HAEWAFY. :rolleyes:

[LiquidBlue5000]

Illume would be good, but how well would it transfer to stage?

FM should have done "Illume" acoustic during the SYW tour.. would have went over well.. much better than that "Red Rover" crap :p

[Moony]

She needs to do Touched by an Angel.

[Nicksluvver]

My vote is for HAEWAFY and I am thinking she may also do "Whenever I Call You Friend" with Kenny Loggins since Loggins and Messina are also on the bill for the benefit.

Krista

I remeber hearing somewhere that she had trouble getting that song on Enchanted and that she was annoyed with him? Anyone else recall something like this?

[BlackWidow]

Since this is going around in a couple different threads I thought I'd start one on just this topic. If you had to pick one song you think she'll do what would it be and why? Then at the end we can see who was right :).
She will open with "TROUBLE IN SHANGRI-LA
Then do.."ROOMS ON FIRE"
Closing with.."STORMS"
Encore:"THE NIGHTMARE"


Yea right! NOT!!!!

She will do "Has Anyone Ever Written Anything For You"

Lanslide seems inappropriate somehow...IMO

[Serrart]

I jump on the HAEWAFY bandwagon, with maybe Stand Back or Edge Of 17 too.

Romy

[realcowgirl]

I'm betting on HAEWAFY.

But, I wouldn't be surprised by Landslide, either.

[Rickypt]

that "Red Rover" crap :p

And here I thought I was only one.........

[chiliD]

I will have to go the different route:

"Rock N Roll" (Her cover of the Led Zep classic)

I dont get why everys so hung up on Landslide being offensive. I think Dreams with Rain washing you clean is far worse. Landslide talks about snow covered hills and reflections and hell sure Landsldies, but there werent any freaking Landslides in New Orleans, just lots and lots of toxic rain. Landslide to me wont be remotely wrong to preform.


Let's combine these two and have her do a Led Zeppelin (version of a) song that would be potentially offensive:

"WHEN THE LEVEE BREAKS"

[UnwindedDreams]

FM should have done "Illume" acoustic during the SYW tour.. would have went over well.. much better than that "Red Rover" crap :p it was minutes away from going on their setlist. :(

[AliceLover]

it was minutes away from going on their setlist. :(

I thought Red Rover was incredible. it was Say Goodbye that I couldn't stand.

[catinthedark]

it was minutes away from going on their setlist. :(

How do you know that?

[strandinthewind]

How do you know that?

I believe they practiced it in the SYW DR doc. and/or it was on some early set list.

They also practiced EFO.

[catinthedark]

I believe they practiced it in the SYW DR doc. and/or it was on some early set list.

Right. I guess I didn't consider that just because they were doing it in the doc that it was "minutes away from being in the setlist." My feeling was that they rehearse lots (see that long setlist in the DR doc) and then decide what's in. Anyway, what do I know?

On edit: wondering if unwinded dreams has more info...

are u feeling ok today, littledizzyboy? "Say Goodbye" was one of the most beautiful performances of the entire show..

Snooze fest. Why not do miranda instead.

[LiquidBlue5000]

Snooze fest. Why not do miranda instead.


well, i agree on that.. but "Miranda" should have been done instead of "Red Rover" or "Whats The World Coming To"... a MUCH better stage song than either of those two, imo...

[Rickypt]

Miranda would have been amazing. It's the catchiest song on SYW and would have translated live very well, I believe.

[ontheEdgeof17]

are u feeling ok today, littledizzyboy? "Say Goodbye" was one of the most beautiful performances of the entire show..

I hated it, too. SOOO Boring.

[ontheEdgeof17]

I didn't enjoy Red Rover. It sounded jumbled and all over the place. I think it was the music....it never seemed to fit together.

As for WTWCT...I loved it....esp at LIB....great song to dance to in the crowd.

Basically Stevie And Lindsey picked all the songs off Say You Will that I didn't want them to perform.....that doesn't count RTTG and DR.

Well no... that would be illegal. :p

DR was not good live. It was okay in Pittsburgh, but I'm glad they dropped it. It just droned on and on....and her vocal was too too too low. It's one of my favorites on the CD, too. Too bad it didn't translate well on stage.

[SapphireSister]

I thought Red Rover was incredible. it was Say Goodbye that I couldn't stand.

Ooooh you are so fired! That was one of the best performances of the whole tour. How could you not love seeing Lindsey sing directly to Stevie the song he wrote about her and their realtionship and her intense reaction? That is so personal for both of them. Kind of like Stevie singing Silver Springs to him.

They were playing it for the audience IMO. Someone said here once that their off stage chemistry is little to none (emotionally) these days. Stevie and LIndsey knows what works a crowd and what doesn't. Don't compare SG to SS, becuase SS is a masterpiece compared to this.

Well, those same people that said it was there in The Dance are mostly the same ones saying it was there in the SYW tour :shrug: I mean La Nicks was clearly playing to the audience with SS because she essentially did the same schtick every night, though I thing the emotion was true. Personally, I think they have their love affair on stage just as they say. Other than that, I keep my visions to myself.

[dissention]

They were playing it for the audience IMO.

They sure were. Everything is a rehearsed roadshow, from the speeches to the movements to the embarrassing "Landslide" pandering. That's not to say that they don't have an emotional investment or feel what they're singing, but it's still one big act that they put on because they know it pleases the crowds.

Having said that, "Say Goodbye" is perfection, definitely one of the highlights of the tour. "Silver Springs" should have never been brought back, it paled in comparison to the amazing renditions of it on the '97 tour.

[SapphireSister]

Personally, I think they have their love affair on stage just as they say. Other than that, I keep my visions to myself.

Exactly! Trust me I don't think they have some secret feelings still lingering and are longing to be together again but I think for those few moments when they are on stage singing their songs to one another the emotion is real. And of course they are going to play it up a bit but it still enjoyable knowing the history between them.

FYI Jimmy you are right - SG does not compare to SS but I was just using that to point out songs they have written for eachother and performed together.

[AliceLover]

Well Say Goodbye they just looked at each other. if I stared at someone dead in the eyes for that amount of time it would look emotional too.

So do you think the '97 versions of Silver Springs on The Dance tour were a "rehearsed roadshow" or do you think there was real emotion behind it?

[dissention]

Well Say Goodbye they just looked at each other.

There's a lot to be said for subtlety.

[strandinthewind]

So do you think the '97 versions of Silver Springs on The Dance tour were a "rehearsed roadshow" or do you think there was real emotion behind it?

I think it was both, just like I think the Dance and SYW versions of Landslide were rote, but full of feeling. I think this is what they mean when they say "love affair on stage."

[dissention]

So do you think the '97 versions of Silver Springs on The Dance tour were a "rehearsed roadshow" or do you think there was real emotion behind it?

Both. Her conviction in what she was singing didn't waver, but that doesn't mean the performances were any less rehearsed and consciously crowdpleasing.

[Rickypt]

Everything is a rehearsed roadshow, from the speeches to the movements to the embarrassing "Landslide" pandering.

Bingo. Which is why I laughed everytime Lindsey gave his prewritten speech before WTWCT lamenting the loss of spontaneity of all things!

[SapphireSister]

Did you guys ever see that tv performance of Silver Springs on some talk show in Holland I think it was? That is seriously my favorite SS performance ever. He walks over to her at the end and she bows her head down to him and it is just so incredible! I've never seen anything that intense between the 2 of them in recent years. I would love to believe that that emotion was real, even if it was onstage and only for a moment.

either you get it or you don't... you obviously don't get it... at 16, i guess you've never been in love with someone before.. for those of us who have, we could totally relate to that song and that stage performance.. it was beautiful..

"Has Anyone Ever Written Anything For You"...she can say this is for the survivors of the disaster...it is "for them"...will totally go over.

It's my b-day gift to me too! When is your b-day?

Hope you can make it!!

[realcowgirl]

I thought Red Rover was incredible. it was Say Goodbye that I couldn't stand.

It's funny, I thought Red Rover was okay, until I heard it live....then it really really grew on me, I love it. Although, I have to agree, to hear Illume would have been great!

[SapphireSister]

The one where she lip-synched? :shocked:

I didn't like Say Goodbye live for one reason - unless you're a huge fan & have the SYW CD & know the words, you could barely make out what they were saying at the shows I attended. Great for me, but I wanted the whole audience to know what an emotional song it was, rather than use it as a beer break.

[tlssln]

u call those longshots, eh?? i would call those miracles ;)

... your Street Angel love never ceases to amaze me :xoxo:

You call those miracles? I call them, no ****ing ways. lol

[tlssln]

Ooooh you are so fired! That was one of the best performances of the whole tour. How could you not love seeing Lindsey sing directly to Stevie the song he wrote about her and their realtionship and her intense reaction? That is so personal for both of them. Kind of like Stevie singing Silver Springs to him.

I agree 100%. Red Rover sucks. I always skip that on the CD. Say Goodbye kicked ass.

[tlssln]

Most definitely 'Has Anyone Ever Written Anything For You'. Beautiful. :)

Most likely but she needs to change the end a bit. The stuff about the men in her life *cringe* being legends and all that won't seem right.

My initial reaction was, she can't do Illume. It was written about New York City and Sept. 11th. But, actually, the words really would be quite relevant. All the stuff about coastal cities and rivers... I guess the question would be whether Stevie would be comfortable taking a song so clearly written for Sept. 11th and singing it in response to another tragedy. Know what I mean? I tihnk it would work perfectly well - and certainly there are millions of people who have no clue it was written in response to Sept. 11th. They might think she whipped it up just for Katrina. But I guess it's all about whether Stevie would feel comfortable doing it.
Stevie will stay in her comfort zone!

Thanks, guys. Sometimes this place can make you feel really insecure. :wavey:

Let's combine these two and have her do a Led Zeppelin (version of a) song that would be potentially offensive:

"WHEN THE LEVEE BREAKS"
It is innapropriate because it would serve as a Metaphor for disaster & havoc.
In that setting it would not be perceived as a little ditty about romantic love.

[BlackWidow]

[QUOTE=reebokandlace]I think performing Landslide would be in very very poor taste.

I agree!

[BlackWidow]

What?!?! :shocked: Stevie? :shocked: Cover a song that Bekka covered?!? ;) Say it ain't so! :laugh:
Bekka? Who is Bekka?
You mean that girl who was in the band for two seconds?

[BlackWidow]

Like I said in the other thread..."No Spoken Word"


...and the wind & the rain and the WATER-R-R-R-R-R!
"IN the beginning I beleived in love and things...
It happened like a HURRICANE!!!!"

[BlackWidow]

I agree. I don't want it to be this song, but it will.
"And sometimes they ask her about the disasters in her life...and she says
As difficult as it has been..they are all lessons..and you are all now priests of nothing..but you are evacuees" :laugh:

I think Illume would be GREAT and appropriate. A chance for something new from her (to the public) and basically what she wrote the song for...surviving a great tragedy. Even the mood of the song would be appropriate.

That's my vote as unlikely as it is.
If Stevie were to ever perform Illume 9/11..
It would have been on SYW Tour! She is not going to take a risk and pull it off now by herself..she will stay in her comfort zones now till the end.

[BlackWidow]

My vote is for HAEWAFY and I am thinking she may also do "Whenever I Call You Friend" with Kenny Loggins since Loggins and Messina are also on the bill for the benefit.

That would be a miracle. I dont think stevie could handle all those high notes now. They did not part as friends anyway..he has never been kind about her in past interviews. Melissa Manchester wrote the song and was to record it with Kenny..at the 12th hour the record label said she was not a big enough name..so Stevie was hired.
