Here's the mp3

http://www.sendspace.com/file/q4ab1e

[danax6]

Alright, now that I've finally seen it... my first response was 'Wowee, it's Stevie Nicks going Diana Ross.' That's some funky hair going on right there. I love it though, it's all wild and messy. I don't get the comments about her voice, sounded like standard Stevie to me, nothing wrong with it. She did sound like she was crying rather than singing the first 2 lines, but she was just nervous. I'd be nervous too if I had to sing in front of a bunch of drunk, camera-horny, dancing football fans and keep a straight face because millions are watching. Love, love, love the short skirt and boots still (I'll be advocating those until the day I die, no matter what anyone else says), but I'm still miffed we didn't get 'something new', like reported. Or, has that always been a Morgane Le Fay creation and we just didn't know? I always assumed it was a Margi Kent creation. Who knows. :shrug:

Btw, I noticed right before the song starts, she throws a shawl behind her (probably GDW), so she had already been performing prior to this. I wish they had shown the entire thing, damnit.

Oh, good - was just thinking if we were all trying more than 1 link it might go more smoothly. But now yousendit is saying "File uploads are temporarily unavailable".

See what we did!!! :lol:

oh lord. the ledgies have crashed the web! :laugh:

[bikerchic]

I got it to work!!! :blob1: Thanks guys so much for posting that! I love it even more the second time. I think she threw the shawl at the last minute because she took one look at the audience and thought I don't think they're a shawl kind a crowd :lol:

[Mike B]

Thanks for the uploads. She looks to me like she was having fun! I think we're in for a great tour this year.:D

[markolas]

Eh. She didn't really seem that into it, to me. I liked her performance on the Today Show awhile back (last year? 2005?)...at least she looked like she was having a good time. At this Super Bowl thing, she looked like she'd just rolled out of bed. :shrug: Not impressed.

No problem , keep it on there. I gives everyone a chance to see it,i'm glad some of got a chance to got it downloaded. thanks for posting it.

[catinthedark]

k - THAT? does not look like a woman approaching 60. i hope i'm that hot at near 60. thanks for posting it to youtube.

she had great energy. hair a touch too long, but i'm not going to quibble. like the wilder look. very hot. once she got past the opening nerves, she sounded great. i must say, i missed the little "WOW-ELL, well you could be standin in... stand back! WOW-ELL, well you could be standin in.. stand back!" from the summer tour (y'all know what i mean, eh? i don't know how to write it out). but overall, great. struck the right tone.

okay - now my little aside... does anyone else find it... i don't know.. weird? odd? sad? bizarre? that in the year 2007, stevie is singing her hit from 1983??? what does that say? (i'm NOT being snarky at all here. i just truly find it odd). i'm curious why she was invited on - as opposed to a christina, or jessica, or someone more to the appeal of the superbowl-type crowd...? i love that she was on - but it's not like she's on promoting new music. you know? btw, what did prince sing? new stuff or old? if he did purple rain era stuff, maybe it was meant to be an 80s feel...?

[UnwindedDreams]

btw, what did prince sing? new stuff or old? if he did purple rain era stuff, maybe it was meant to be an 80s feel...? Prince did like three covers....Proud Mary and All Along the Watchtower were mixed in and he did The Best Of You...I didn't think he was that great...but the stage was AWESOME!!!

[Nixxxed]

Prince did like three covers....Proud Mary and All Along the Watchtower were mixed in and he did The Best Of You...I didn't think he was that great...but the stage was AWESOME!!!
Other than those (plus "We Will Rock You" at the beginning), it was all 1983 "Purple Rain" tunes, catinthedark...

"Let's Go Crazy"
"Baby I'm a Star"
& of course "Purple Rain"

The stage was awesome tho. And the marching band with the glowing costumes was fun too.

well, then you know what? 80s-stevie was the perfect warm-up. she did me proud.

Wow, the comments left on YouTube are pretty brutal. I hate to admit it, but I kinda have to agree... this is not my favorite Stevie TV performance. :sorry:

yeah. well, what else would she sing? i'm not trying to be snarky either -- cause lord knows tired and old are the songs she sings. but seriously? other than standard fleetwood mac songs, this is the one song that defined her as a solo artist to the masses.

i'm sure if we were to sit down and take a look at who represents the artists that performed tonight, there'd be a connection -- either in record label or publicity.

[GardenStateGirlie]

Wow, the comments left on YouTube are pretty brutal. I hate to admit it, but I kinda have to agree... this is not my favorite Stevie TV performance. :sorry:

i thought it was fairly lackluster -- she was smiling but going through the motions. sharon sounded good though! :laugh:

[jwd]

I was disappointed in the vocal performance. Maybe she was just all tense from nerves. Or just trying to push it a little past her limitations. Then again, I thought the band and the "girls" sounded, "not so good" too. It all sounded kind of muffled and flat to me. So maybe it's just the way it came across on TV. Nothing like her Today Show performances or how she sounded on her solo tour and the Petty gigs. :shrug: On a positive note, I thought she looked GREAT! This woman should be a role model on how to stay sexy and young for females in their fifties and pushing sixty!! :shocked: Love the wildness in her hair. I mean, after all she is a ROCK STAR!! :xoxo:

[Rickypt]

I thought Stevie did a very good job, given the audience and how nervous I'm sure she was. I mean, she's nervous playing for her diehards so I could only imagine how she was with this crowd and the nationally televised thing.

But we can't be surprised to read negative reviews of her performance. She played for the whole country today. Many of these people haven't thought about her for 20 years or so, many others have never heard of her. It's just the way it is.

[MacMan]

Wow, the comments left on YouTube are pretty brutal. I hate to admit it, but I kinda have to agree... this is not my favorite Stevie TV performance. :sorry:

I'd almost completely blame it on the audio feed - not so much the performance. Maybe the high humidity has an effect on a voice:shrug:

I think Stand Back was the best choice. she had small timeframe to perform and no matter how "tired and old" Stand Back may be to some, it always manages to get any crowd on it's feet and is a great, feel-good song, plus Stevie has said it's her favorite song to perform onstage.

and as for the artists performing being connected, that's not a new thing...it happens all the time. it's not like they just threw Stevie in for the hell of it or it was a favor to anyone.

I agree with you on every count. For 60...it was great!

[foxyluva]

I think she sounds ****ing fantastic :thumbsup:

[SpyNote]

Oh, and if anyone says she looks FAT, I think I'll kick their ass! :laugh:

Well, people are always going to say that about her and any female celebrity who isn't 98 pounds. It's ingrained in our culture and subconscious.

Stevie looks fantastic for 58, and is still quite sexy. :woohoo:

[jwd]

70's Stevie looks ready to kick ass in your sig. "Wutchu say about mah ass?"

:D No ****...don't MESS with "THE WITCH"!!

[Little Nicki]

She looks like a pissed off, down and dirty rocker for most of it. Well, that's relative to regular modern day Stevie anyway. It's all in the stance.

She's hitting hitting notes in unexpected places, seemingly performing for her own pleasure rather than putting on a smile-time-happy-good-times act for the crowd, and there's something about the way she says "away from you" after the bridge.

I thought it was great, much better than ANY non-Live in Boston/Today Show performances from the last eight years.

[jwd]

Stevie looks fantastic for 58, and is still quite sexy. :woohoo:

I disagree....in part.....I think she'd look fantastic and sexy for a woman in her thirties :thumbsup: She's smokin' hot, and I'm sure she gave a lot of the red blooded American males in the audience a "little rise"! :laugh:

[DestinyRules]

Not the best performance of "Stand Back" I've ever seen, but it's hard to top Live in Boston. The July 10, 2005 Nissan Pavilion version played it safe vocally, but she was REALLY into it from the physical standpoint.

I guess considering the high humidity, she did pretty well.

[The Catdancer]

I think she sounds ****ing fantastic :thumbsup:

And she looked ****ing amazing :] . I'm not that hot and I'm in my 40's. Go figure....

[BombaySapphire3]

After watching it a few more times ,vocally I'm hard pressed to come up with a worse rendition of Stand Back and that includes the Klonopin years.I'm really hoping it is something to do with the mic because if her voice really has deteriorated that much it is really upsetting.:distress:

This is what she sounds like now for years..I heard no difference.

[jkmaletic]

I thought she looked and sounded great. My in-laws almost didn't believe me when I told them how old she was. Thank God for Stevie too - did you see the REST of the pregame show? Especially the Cirque De Soliel part?? - that was HOORRRIBLE!!

I have a feeling she just had an off-day yesterday. For whatever reason. Humidity. Jet lag. Nerves. Allergies (mold season?). Bronchitis acting up? Illness? Vocal mix (which was very, very dry). I also think it could have partly been related to the altered/shortened arrangement and being careful not to screw up. And with all of those lights and cameras buzzing around in the air, it was probably very, very distracting, making it very difficult to concentrate on her vocals. Also, if her ear monitors were too quiet, she may have felt the need to belt out each line even harder Suffice it to say, she was totally outside of her comfort zone yesterday. Okay, enough excuses for Mama!

Still, I was so surprised to hear her sounding so "off" yesterday, especially since she was singing like a bird in December. :shrug: And SB over the years has kind of morphed into this three-note scream-fest. I wish she would follow the melody of the original recording more faithfully, slow down the tempo, and stop yelling out the lyrics. :rolleyes:

I saw part of it. I am actually quite an admirer of Romero Britto's art, so I was expecting some beautiful "artwork come to life" sets. Instead, it was just a bunch of guys wearing these ugly baggy boardshorts with Britto graphics with a white tank top. Muy creative!! :rolleyes: :lol:

Girl, you and me both.


she had great energy. hair a touch too long, but i'm not going to quibble. like the wilder look.

I don't know if anyone saw Katie Couric on the pregame show but her hair looked the same way. I wish I knew how to capture a screenshot of it and post it for you guys. The humidity with the drenching rain in Miami must have been hell for the hair and makeup people. I also noticed that Gloria Estefan just went ahead and pulled her hair back for her introduction of the Cirque Du Soleil.

[gldstwmn]

right tone.

okay - now my little aside... does anyone else find it... i don't know.. weird? odd? sad? bizarre? that in the year 2007, stevie is singing her hit from 1983???

Yes. I was thinking the same thing.


btw, what did prince sing? new stuff or old? if he did purple rain era stuff, maybe it was meant to be an 80s feel...?

Prince tore the joint up with Let's Get Crazy, Proud Mary (!) some Hendrix and closed with Purple Rain. If this is what his show at the Rio is like then I so want to go to it. He ****in' rocked, in the pouring rain no less. It was really kind of a cool effect for him to do Purple Rain in it. I was so afraid for his dancers because that stage was soaked. And I was worried about him ruining his guitars. :o

[strandinthewind]

I thought she sounded okay - In fat, I think she gave it a little uummph that has been missing in some recent shows.

[bikerchic]

She's on Perez http://www.perezhilton.com/. I guess we can call him a member of our Street Team :thumbsup:

[strandinthewind]

Was that Lori all the way to the right on back up?

[bikerchic]

Also - she twirled her a$$ off on the SYW tour and the GD tour :shrug:

They didn't really show them too much, which is sad because I LOVE Lori!!!

About f*cking time he mentioned her - he's been in Miami all week mentioning anyone even remotely famous.

And it's the awesome YouTube posting from The Ledge guys! Congrats Macfanforever & SpyNote!

Also - my fave "incidental" part of the video is the first "one man ... did not call" when a guy in the audience is raising his index finger, making the "1" sign in the lower right corner of the screen.

[bikerchic]

Nobody ever shows the girls! Perfessional or bootleggers! Taku got no camera time :mad:

Perez always has nice things to say about Stevie though. Thank god! That website gets millions of hits a day. "Most" of the comments are good too.

The hand behind the ear for "I did not hear from you" is new. No?

[strandinthewind]

. . . The hand behind the ear for "I did not hear from you" is new. No?

I think so.

You know, I watched the performance again, and she sold it. She even stayed in the higher range for the "so I went on down the road" part. I don't get all the grief being given for this performance. Was it her best - no -- but is that a solid B+ IMO.

[bikerchic]

^ I thought it was a great performance! I'll take anything from her now a days.

[ELIUD]

I'm so confused by the new skirt. It's the same one she's been wearing lately, i.e. Tom Petty tour and Dec in Vegas, but it's not a standard handkerchief hem. It looks like it started out as one but may have turned out to be too long so she rolled up the hem and kinda tucked it underneath somehow. With staples maybe? I've done that with my jeans. It's just very wierd.

Love the jacket though.

[HejiraNYC]

Also - she twirled her a$$ off on the SYW tour and the GD tour :shrug:

I think she was making baby-twirls yesterday because of the shortened arrangement. She probably has each of her power twirls timed for her normal show... but she probably didn't know how many she could squeeze into the shortened guitar solo yesterday, so she stopped a little early, for fear of overtwirling. :lol: :shrug:

Yes, the only part she ever twirls in was completely cut. I'm surprised she did anything outside of her pre-planned movements. Another reason why this was not an awful performance.

She probably has each of her power twirls timed for her normal show... but she probably didn't know how many she could squeeze into the shortened guitar solo yesterday, so she stopped a little early, for fear of overtwirling. :lol: :shrug:

I agree. Though, I do love to overtwirl :cool:

[Sahara]

Mmmmh. Vocally not her best (probably for a multitude of reasons already mentioned) and there's just no point twirling without a massive shawl to set it off ;)
But she definitely got into it around the second verse or so. Towards the end she was certainly rocking!

Thanks for posting guys! :wavey:

[ELIUD]

All of her faster twirling of late has been while wearing the Frankeboks. I haven't seen her twirl in heels since the Katrina concert on the Today show. And that was very similar in momentum. I'd rather she wear the heels and keep the twirls moderately paced then ever put on those ugly-ass shoes again.

[bikerchic]

Don't you find she walks like Herman Monster when she wears the frankenboks (stiff and from the hip) but walks "almost" normal in the boots with heels:shrug: My husband watched some bootlegs with me just lately of the recent Vegas shows and couldn't get over how she walks in the reboks and then yesterday after this performance he said "I'm glad to see she's walking better in those kind of boots" :laugh: That's funny for him to notice that :rolleyes:

[Macfanforever]

I'd almost completely blame it on the audio feed - not so much the performance. Maybe the high humidity has an effect on a voice:shrug:

I have to agree about the sh2tty audio feed ,no stereo seperation mix of the band.it sound like cbs did not care about it.I hope they do better at the grammys next week. Stevie's performance was superb under the short time limit, they gave her.and the weather didn't help at all.

Thank you, Liz!!! :lol:

[skcin]

I watched it again & realized what's was bugging me. She looks almost mad. Not many smiles, ala' the Today show performance last year ('05?) Kind of harsh & forced & not thrilled to be there. It was OK, not great.

Love the new "sympathy" moves though. "And.........JAZZ HANDS!!!!!!" :lol:

I'd rather she put on the Reeboks and twirl superfast than have her wear the boots and struggle to frickin walk like she once did.

Sorry, but comfort > style. Especially on the Edge of Sixty.

[HejiraNYC]

Thank you, Liz!!! :lol:

That's Mistress Rosenberg to you, Basketboy! :p :lol: :xoxo:

[SortaSavageLike]

At least she did the " La la la la la..." part this time. She almost drowned out that sugarplum fairy Jana. :rolleyes:

[xdreamsunwindx]

I think it was really bland. No umph at all. It sounds like she's singing it just because she has to, rather than singing it for her own pleasure.

I love Stevie, and I know that she's pushing 60, but I have heard much better. To be honest, if I were singing a song that's been played to death for the past 20-some years, I'd half-ass it, too. She looks great, though.

What else is she supposed to do? You can't do much when you have to stand in front of a mic to sing it...

[xdreamsunwindx]

I don't know, maybe put forth a little more effort? I definitely think she wasn't digging the song, and felt like she HAD to sing it, so that's why it was so vanilla. She could have pretended to dig it a little more, though..

[camchristo]

I enjoyed her performance. I'm sure she was really nervous performing in front of that crowd. I just didn't like all the drunk superbowl fans who were more worried about getting themselves on tv for a split second rather than watching Stevie. Shame on them for disrespecting my girl! Oh, and I loved the hair. I'm sure it was just the humidity but I really wish she would wear it curly sometimes or that look on the Dance DVD cover, party crimped, party straight, messy and sexy as hell!

Partly crimped, partly straight....

[EveryHour]

I wholeheartedly both agree and disagree with many comments here, but I have to say I was amused by Stevie performing in front of a backdrop reading "Tailgate"...........

[gldstwmn]

Love the jacket though.

The boobage was not on display. Maybe they were warned no boobage after the Janet Jackson incident.

[gldstwmn]

Yes, the only part she ever twirls in was completely cut.


They cut to Al during part of the twirls. :rolleyes:

[HejiraNYC]

I think she would have received RAVES if she'd worn the boob shelf. Many SOTB converts would have been made. :nod:

Could you imagine Stevie with a wardrobe malfunction? :laugh:

[gldstwmn]

Could you imagine Stevie with a wardrobe malfunction? :laugh:

Actually, from what I could see in that dress she wore to The Melbourne Cup or whatever that thing was, her surgeon did a magnficent job in reconstructing her boobs after the removal of her implants. Her nipples looked fabulous. And I mean that in the most complimentary, unfreaky way possible. I'll go on Wire Image and copy and post the pic I'm talking about in a little bit. I'd love to know who did the implant removal surgery. Because I would love him/her to fix mine. :lol:
So maybe Howard Stern would have had a much higher opinion of her appearance if she did have a wardrobe malfunction. :laugh:

I thought she put forth a damn good bit of effort actually. considering that Stevie is a pampered professional, it was destined to be imperfect since it was in front of a ton of people, not her usual setting, outside, after the rain and in the midst of choking humidity.

to me, the look in her eyes at one point and that hair...I was like "damn, wild Stevie is in there" - she sang hard and smiled and gestured and twirled and changed up the notes a bit and wore BOOTS and danced...what other effort would've satisfied you? a split and cartwheel?

[SandyMac]

Seeing her twirl without a Stand Back cape was a bit odd, but cute at the same time. I think I almost saw a smirk or little laugh as she was doing it, kind of like laughing to herself since she had no cape.

[SandyMac]

I'd rather she put on the Reeboks and twirl superfast than have her wear the boots and struggle to frickin walk like she once did.

Sorry, but comfort > style. Especially on the Edge of Sixty.

I can't believe I am saying this... but I would prefer the fast twirls and her rockin' out to the safe little twirls with the boots. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE the boots, but LOVE the fast twirls better.

[DestinyRules]

I don't know, maybe put forth a little more effort? I definitely think she wasn't digging the song, and felt like she HAD to sing it, so that's why it was so vanilla. She could have pretended to dig it a little more, though..
I thought she should have either done a new song (if she even has such a thing these days) or she should have done a different song if she's going to half-ass it with a phone-it-in performance like she did.

However, for anyone who's complaining that Stevie looked pissed, "Stand Back" is a pissed off kind of song. It's like one of the few keyboard-based pissed off rockers there is. When she sang that song on The Dance tour, there were a LOT of more pissed off performances of "Stand Back."

[xdreamsunwindx]

I don't want to see her junk, to be honest, so I'll pass on those suggestions. I thought she sounded really bored, which comes across as a less than stellar performance. The end.

[carrie721]

I don't want to see her junk

that's where we differ. :D

[JazmenFlowers]

phone-it-in performance
lord can we please stop using this phrase. it's so done.

I know. She walks like her feet are in cement in those damn sneakers. It drives me crazy.

[jwd]

I like this performance better. Screw the Super Bowl!

[Serrart]

It really didn't seem the best set for a performance, and the feedback onstage sounded really bad. I think she looked a bit annoyed at the start by the situation, but from the middle to the end her exhibition is in a nice crescendo. IMo she did pretty well. :thumbsup:

:lol: you crack me up :lol:

[StreetAngel86]

Eh. She didn't really seem that into it, to me. I liked her performance on the Today Show awhile back (last year? 2005?)...at least she looked like she was having a good time. At this Super Bowl thing, she looked like she'd just rolled out of bed. :shrug: Not impressed.

i thought so too
but that wild crazy hair made her look totally hot
and it WAS raining (and prob humid too)

and keep in mind.....Stevie usually gets up at 1-2pm
this was at what 4pm? and with the time diff she probably would still be in bed
SO yes, she probably did just roll outta bed

but who gives a *****
she was HOT
especially with those boots :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

:: clap for Stevieness ::

[markolas]

I thought she looked like she needed a haircut and some V05 Hot Oil, but that's just me. :shrug:

don't disagree there

at least she colored her roots :D

im still waiting for her to CUT her hair
into a sexy little bob!

Wow, She looks very professional in that photo,oh the Superbowl hair,I think she did not care what her hair looked on tv, as the cbs sound crew did not give a crap on the sh2tty sound mix they gave us, as Howard Stern mentioned on his show too.

[Sahara]

I really wish she would wear it curly sometimes or that look on the Dance DVD cover, party crimped, party straight, messy and sexy as hell!

Partly crimped, partly straight....

Let me hear AMEN!
:wavey: Couldn't agree more, that was one of the most fantastic do's ever. I'd love to try it but I don't think I could pull it off like she did (could anyone?)

[Sahara]

Also, I wanted to smack each and every one of those eejits who turned and waved at the camera as it passed over them during the performance.
I wanted to smack them really, really hard. How dare they?! :mad: :shocked:

Apparently, there is a DVD of the whole Superbowl performance. I got an email saying it was $18 or so. So, while I ain't paying for a boot, it likely will surface for free in a matter of days. If not, so be it.

It sounds like whoever was recording it sang the "whoo-ooo-ooo-ooo" part. Am I imagining that? As in "whoo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo, taken by, taken by the sky-eye."

[DestinyRules]

lord can we please stop using this phrase. it's so done.
Can she stop doing a tired ass performance? Then we won't have to hear "phoned in performance." When she and Kid Rock did "Woodstock," that was the Stevie of old, wailing and cutting loose like we all remember her back in the day.

For the people who complained Stevie didn't look happy at the beginning, "Stand Back" is supposed to be an angry song! LOL
