It's called "Destiny Rules." It's my new favorite song. I love this video. Stevie is properly attired & sings it movingly. The music is clear. Everything is clicking. Do they do this song this year? What is this song about?

Peestie, why don't you staff-notate the guitar part from this song the way you did for "I Am Waiting" a few years ago? Someone named Reed Peterson tabbed it on the Web (on Ultimate-Guitar.com), but his chord names are all wrong. The chord names he supplies have nothing to do with this song. I don't know whether his tabs are any good because I don't read tablature.

When I watched this video, I ran to the piano & tried to get the opening essential chords.

But Peestie should staff-notate the guitar part entirely. Go, Peestie, go!!

They sing this song in place of Dreams. Stevie says it is her new standard and she will never take it out of the set list. The song is about how every decision you make is spontaneous and your life can take a thousand different turns, depending on which way the wind is blowing that morning. Nothing is predetermined.

When did she ever sing this instead of Dreams? And obviously they took it out of the set list haha...

[kak125]

Oh my how I miss the Stevie/Lindsey interaction. Can we just go back to the year 2003 please? I saw them 3 times on that tour and it was just so damm good. I love Say You Will and really miss those songs on this tour.

that was sarcasm.

:lol:

[louielouie2000]

It's a damn shame they dropped Destiny Rules so quickly. In my opinion, it was Stevie's strongest Mac song since Gypsy. I hate they dropped it before I got to see them on that tour too. Oh well, such is life!

God I love Say Goodbye from the tour. I just don't get why its so oddly sped up on the album :confused:

[louielouie2000]

I totally agree! The song is haunting, beautiful, heartbreaking live... but it's just... odd... on the album. Oh well, a LOT more people heard it live than on the album, so I guess that's what matters! :thumbsup:

Its like they didn't have enough space on the cd so the had to speed it up to fit it in or something :laugh:
Goodbye Baby is also insanely cool live :nod:

[Peestie]

I am buried in work until next Friday but if you send me a PM or something to remind me I'll give it a go then. I think I did the outro of the studio version for Madness Fades a while ago.

I think the latter may just be the greatest song of all time -- possibly excepting "Yesterdays" (Kern/Harbach).

I disagree. The first live versions of DR were terrible. Stevies voice was so weak it sounded like a whisper. The only plus about it was that Lindsey was using the acoustic. When they added DR back into the set, he switched to the turner.

I think RTTG had the most potential of all the live songs they did on the tour. If this is what it sounded like on opening night, I can't even imagine how great it would sound by the end of the tour. I think this song totally rocks live. Even with Stevie's bum hip here, she sort of gets into it at the end and the crowd reaction at both the beginning and end is great.

The only thing I remember liking about DR live is the added vocals at the very end. They injected energy. I wish there had been more of those throughout the song.

DR is a close second to Thrown Down for me.

Yeah, its a GREAT GREAT song. I listen to it all the time on my Ipod (album version). But the live version of RTTG was just great. I was heartbroken when I heard they dropped it.

ohhhh lol i feel stupid now :p
But still, one can always dream...

This was THE BEST! It's such an intense, fierce song, and even though her hip was bad here, her voice sounds FANTASTIC!:blob2: It would be incredible to see it back in the set one day, but let's face it, chances are about 1 out of 29023830123908.

And Goodbye Baby was excellent live, I clearly remember being pleasantly surprised that at both Cleveland shows, TONS of people sang along to it :))

Damn, I had forgotten how good that song was live! I hate they dropped it... they all just synched up so well for it! And you can tell Stevie was totally into her performance too...

[Janis_no1]

Regarding Destiny Rules, Yeah agreed, is very clear isn't it! surprising and enjoyable!

Isn't it great! Running through the Garden is also one of my favourites from the album. She sounds good doesn't she!

Ugh. Annoying metrenome, annoying metrenome, annoying metrenome. Ruined the song. :distress:

[nightbird89]

It's pretty much flawless. And it's such an intense song, really great lyrics. Almost as good as Silver Girl (sarcasm alert).

[LukeA]

Ugh. Annoying metrenome, annoying metrenome, annoying metrenome. Ruined the song. :distress:

The only thing that ever ruined "Say Goodbye" is Stevie.
