Deep dense?

steve's riff immune

[sodascouts]

Deep dense?

steve's riff immune

Yes. You obviously realize Steve's Riff is much too lame to last without your help. And I think Lindsey would agree, as he never completed it!

STEVE'S RIFF IMMUNE.

BEGIN ROUND 8.

[wondergirl9847]

ARG, after this one is gone, this will be friggin' impossible!

[shackin'up]

Yes. You obviously realize Steve's Riff is much too lame to last without your help. And I think Lindsey would agree, as he never completed it!

congratulations gerald...and THEN start complaining....

by the way, immunity is all about saving what you like. I LIKE IT. And it's a in memoriam-vote for Given Thing anyway. lindsey's roughs are sometimes beautiful. I don't care what HE thinks is good. I'm Gerald, you know. And I think my hero is way too much of a perfectionist. He could have brought out at least double the amount of material that I would have liked....

[mondaymornin1]

Yep, and after this one, it'll be tough!

[shackin'up]

Even his own soundstage-dvd cover says: Down on THE rodeo, so I say down with rodeo.

[AliP]

ugh, all the songs remaining are great...but come on, Steve's Riff does not even compare. I'm sorry Gerald. It has nice guitar work, but that's about it. Give the songs that deserve it a chance!!

Too slow for my taste.

[Red]

This is awful. I loooove this song.

[AliP]

I prefer Steve's Riff to most of the songs remaining. Do I get a public lashing as well? I would be ever so grateful.


Yes. Lash, lash.

The ultimate finale should be between Shuffle Riff and Twist of Fate. :cool:

oh! it looks like a real alliance :D

[John Run]

Time To Go was two votes ago

[shackin'up]

Sorry Gerald, out of the tunes left I like this the least. Gift Of Screw is next on my hit list though!

yeah, well, excuses accepted ;-) . I'll have to keep playing my own game I guess....because GOS is in my top 4.....

[shackin'up]

oh! it looks like a real alliance :D

use your 2000th post to say something nice to me, love. i need it. Even the nutkeesjes are against me this round....

[Mari]

Aww.. ok. I won't vote for Gift Of Screws next, because I love that one too. Very much. Baaad Sharon.

Is that alright?

....how ironic is it that 'face of glass' got THAT one right! Ah well. CONGRATS, that means "Gift of Screws" is immune for Round 9 which begins..... oh....right about.... NOW.

[rezamatic]

Well, can't say I don't enjoy it. But no way it deserves to be up in the top four.

[face of glass]

Sorry Gerald.

[sodascouts]

As much as I enjoy listening to Lindsey moan suggestively for several minutes, how about we keep this Survivor to songs Lindsey has actually completed and intended for public consumption?

Well now you are pushing it. You know there's only one who's going to respond to this. I pissed you off huh? Stop that arrogant tone. Lindsey did NOT present this material to us as finished, dear. We know it, but we are not supposed to. And his intentions are something you can only guess about. You made the list. So every song has a chance. Don't lecture on what are good choices and what are bad choices. Just get pissed off if your fave is gone or try to go for immunity if you think you are the only one. That's all.

[AliP]

Which Gift of Screws demo was co-written by Stevie Nicks?


Nancy (or anyone) could you please explain this to me? How do you know this? Is there any information about when it was written etc? I know I probably heard the story before, but I need a refresher course.

[face of glass]

From Javier Pacheco's Q&A:
Yes, I was very critical of Stevie, but her songs did move me, I didn't try to block her creativity--I did think she had a talent for expressing honest sentiments. Her first FRITZ songs have stayed with me. In fact, one song in particular I have sung over and over again for the past thirty years--country and simple, but right on the mark. The lyrics go thusly: "Well there's a deep sense of a funny kind of love, ...when you look back on the way it really was. Kind of like a marriage after it has broken up; Well, there's a deep sense of a funny, ...kind of love."
Although I have no idea of where the people have gotten the impression that it's a co-write with Lindsey. :shrug:

I think it is more than a guess that the songs he submitted to Warner Brothers were intended for public consumption. I think it is more than a guess as to why Steve's Riff was not among them.

You made the list. So every song has a chance.
It was only fair to include every song. And I understand that every song has a chance. Duh.

Don't lecture on what are good choices and what are bad choices.
I can and will, and hopefully I will sway a few people along the way. That's what this game is about, babe.

Just get pissed off if your fave is gone or try to go for immunity if you think you are the only one. That's all.

I don't understand this last statement. How can I go for immunity? Have you forgotten that I write the immunity questions? :confused:

[sodascouts]

Although I have no idea of where the people have gotten the impression that it's a co-write with Lindsey. :shrug:
I asked Javier about it and he said so.

[face of glass]

I asked Javier about it and he said so.
Ok. When did you ask him about it then, was it when you were posting the Fritz snippets at your site? Because I remember your speculation said "Written by L. Buckingham and S. Nicks; Sung by L. Buckingham" even before the posting of those snippets.

I can only interpret this post as an utter selfish bellybuttonstaring moment. I guess I have to forgive you because I don't get such a pile of empathyless reading.

I exchanged e-mails with him for a while before that. But indeed if you look at the Q&A you will see that the lyrics are different, which leads one to the conclusion that Lindsey changed them. In fact I edited the above to read that, but I saw you had quoted the old version, so I changed it back. :)

Did you have some bad bologna or something? Your posts are making less and less sense.

I just assumed that Javier's memory wouldn't be that good, after all it's a song that was written 30 years ago when he was doing his Q&A. But I guess he has a recording of the original too, somewhere.

[shackin'up]

Did you have some bad bologna or something? Your posts are making less and less sense.

no dear. you just don't understand me. Did that option come to mind too?

That's exactly what I meant by that bellybuttonthingie.

You're right. I don't understand you. You seem to be getting very belligerent for very little reason.

[shackin'up]

belligerent

:confused: :confused: :confused:

by the way: I responded to an arrogant tone. I said that too. Nothing there to not understand.

[sodascouts]

I'm confused again. Why are you holding a contest for his unreleased material at all then? Unless it is released, it would be rather presumptuous to conclude what his intentions are or were.

I'm confused as to why that matters at all when we're just having fun here. I am unconcerned as to whether Lindsey theoretically would approve or disapprove of a game being played on a message board. Therefore, whether I am presumptuous in my assumptions or not bears little relevance to the reasoning behind holding a contest. The reasoning is simple: this is entertaining to many people. I am not sure why you are so adamant that this game should not be played, but if it pleases you to continue protesting this scandalous thread which for some reason you are still following, who am I to stand in your way?

[David]

It should have been called "Steve's Lick"

I have never heard an adequate comparison of "riff" & "lick," so I voted off this song.

Plus, nobody even remembers Steve Ross.

Oh, David. I love your signature. :laugh:

Is he that guy who co-wrote "I Want You Back" 20 years ago? Or do I have him mixed up with someone else?

It is the weakest link...goodbye.

[Mari]

Difficult choice now, but this one's the weakest that's left.
