My beautiful...beautiful....beautiful.....beautiful beast

Dreams unwind

She was just a wish

My first mstake was to smile at you
eek...I did this all wrong didn't I??? Sorry, I just couldn't get one or two word phrases. I just love these phrases in her songs. And a ton more. lol But then I'd have to list at least one phrase from ever single song! lol

[Chrislit18]

I agree with you, steviechaser, its not just the words, but how she uses them in the songs with the other words. i tried to use dream in a song, but eh, not half as good as stevies. :)

anyways, i like

gypsy
dream [especially from WLT!!]
angel
'blue green colors flashing'
'long nets of white'

there you go :)

her OSOTM lyrics are the most ~magical~, so those are def. on my top stevie phrases :)

That's okay~ I like the phrases you chose! I forgot about dreams unwind~ love that~ we can do another thread of favorite Stevie's verses, but I think I did that before awhile back~ it might of been on SW though~ I can't remember!LOL

[michelej1]

Well, these aren't my five. They just come up off the top of my head.

"yesterday I was fascinated by somebody else."

"wild eyed in my misery" [but there are many phrases from Sorcerer that fit the bill including (but not limited to) "snow dream" and "man and woman on a star stream"]

"twilight dreamtime"

"starling flew for days"

Angel [almost all the phrases]

[Remy]

a phrase:
'... wrap her in velvet robes of gloom.."
"i see myself remaining, when all of you are gone"

[gldstwmn]

Words/Phrases

3) "Part Of Me Used To Love You; Part Of Me Still Does."

That song sounds so much like Stevie inside and out that it hurts. The only one she didn't write that I'd lobby to have in the setlist. Yum, yum and yum.

ChimpanzeePete, I laughed so hard when I read this that I decided to start a new thread in your honor on Chit Chat.

Words/Phrases

4) "Wild"


I was thinking this actually.
I really just love the part in Love is Dangerous-my favourite part of the whole song, when Stevie/Rick are like 'Standing at the Crossroads' and then Stevies all 'ohh yeah this wild'. I just love it.

Thanks for posting this one! :D

I also love.. "Take your silver spoon and dig your grave"- GDW
"Let me put you on ice"- Sorcerer
"Just an invitation would have been just fine"- Standback
"And black moons in those eyes of hers" - SOTM
"My walls are flamin" - Smile At You

LOL.. Guess those were more lyrics than words.. but I love them all.. LOL

[gldstwmn]

For two words, it's pretty descriptive.

[michelej1]

Guess those were more lyrics than words.. but I love them all.. LOL

Yeah, that's what I was thinking about Some Become Strangers. It's whole strings of words:

Giving you, is giving out

Thing is, time was

I was hoping to remember you with just a smile

From Stevie's pen:

Shaken my faith in everything else

[Steviefan49]

For two words, it's pretty descriptive.

They are Chris!;) LOL..

:D


Sunflowers and your face.

Then I knew - in the crystalline knowledge of you.

Two-part personality: The flower and the vine.

And we fight for the Northern Star.

There is a gate - it can be guarded.

Outside the rain, and the heart skips a beat.

And my all-time favorite -


Dark upon light, because it hurts too much.


Freaking brilliant. :]


P.S. - And as MichelleJ1 mentioned -

Thing is - time was - Part of me used to love you; part of me still does.

[wolfontherun]

OMG how could I forget

BABY BABY BABY BABY BABY

[Steviefan49]

OMG how could I forget

BABY BABY BABY BABY BABY

Ahh... GREAT ones! LOL

[SandyMac]

okay, you know you are a fan when you read these over and as you are reading them, you hear Stevie singing the words in your mind. :nod:

[michelej1]

How Still My Love (outstanding use of phrase both in HSML and in EO17).

Also, live she will sometimes say, "Or should I say, hold still, hold still my love."
And that works too:laugh:.

Michele

[macmar71]

I love to waltz with a man in a dark linen suit.....

Twas I who was the hourglass and the sands of time like shattering glass went past me like a tunnel to the sea.....


Not all the prayers in the world can save us..........

I don't want to live forever, I don't want to die alone, a pair of eyes that love me is all that I want......

Some call her strange lady from the mountain and others say she's not really real.............

[Steviefan49]

okay, you know you are a fan when you read these over and as you are reading them, you hear Stevie singing the words in your mind. :nod:

(hides face) Yep! I got the whole visual also.. Heard Stevie singing "Baby, baby, baby, baby.. too" LOLOLOL:laugh:

Okay, that just about made me pee myself! :laugh:

[Chrislit18]

I don't want to live forever, I don't want to die alone, a pair of eyes that love me is all that I want......

oh.my.god.

I love this. :D
I have never heard these lyrics before, I had to look them up.
I would die to hear this song...the rest of the lyrics are beautiful too.

[UndoingTheLaces]

Okay, here are mine. I think I've got ghosts and angels on the mind today.

some Christmas angel - Blue Lamp
So you look to your guardian angel - Ghosts
was this your world or just my darkness - Castaway
'till I become part of the wind - Angel
like a ghost through a fog - Angel

[CelticGypsy]

Here's some favs:

enchanted
dreams unwind
a spirit in flight
blame it on my wild heart
like a strand in the wind
set your secrets free
and many of those dreams pass us by

Really too hard to choose only five words. She writes and sings the most beautiful songs like everyone else has also mentioned.

[Matthew]

I can´t choose five, so here is what I really like.

generally:
well
baby
you know

And some parts of lyrics:
stand back, he said take it aaaaaaaaaall (´90,´91 and ´94 live versions)
all the same - Rhiannon (BTM live version)
well just like the white winged dove (RAL live version)
sometimes it´s a bitch
i'll come back and get you - Blue Denim
runnin' in the shadows - Gold Dust Woman (BTM live version)
i wish that you´re mine - Beautiful Child (SYW live version)

[PenguinHead]

Go
Down
Hall

Fog
Amphetamines
Pills

Maybe
Woman
Falls

Ahh
Ha
Ooo

[madolyn]

* And undoing ... and undoing ... the laces
* Lousy lovers pick their prey but they never cry out loud
* ... Comes your real life and the life that you know
* And the days go by like a strand in the wind
* And a black widow spider makes more sound than she

limited to five, that's my list!

-- Madolyn

[Ghost_Tracker]

"Some call it love -
some say they're above that.
Above that!?"



(Might not be word-for-word but I think maybe that's the way she meant it.) :]
