I'm sitting here watching Will & Grace on Lifetime and during a commerical I hear the guitar. I look up and I see they are promoting Soldier's Angel as part of their Coming Home series (for anyone who doesn't know what that is the show reunites military families with their soldiers.) Anyway, they are teasing the next Coming Home and then they jump to how you can support the Yellow Ribbon fund and get a free download of Stevie's Soldier's Angel.
I was wondering if Lifetime was going to pick up on that because aside from Coming Home, they also air Army Wives (great show btw).
Here's the link to what I was able to find on the web: http://www.mylifetime.com/shows/coming-home/stevie-nicks-yellow-ribbon-fund-donation
I suddenly see this song having a whole different commercial success.

I appreciate the message of the song, but jeez, imagine being a casual fan and hearing *that* song as new Stevie material. I'd be running away from In Your Dreams!

Multiple formats helped Trouble In Shangri-la.
"Soldier's Angel" could do great things for Stevie, even if there is another mainstream single, like "Moonlight".

I'm watching Lifetime this morning! There's this campy TV-Movie from 2005 called The Perfect Neighbor starring Barbara Niven. She's so crazy! I have it on DVD, but watch it anyway whenever it is on Lifetime, which is all the time!
Great hearing STEVIE during it!

Nothing like getting sucked into a Lifetime movie. Especially on a day when you can just chillax and not be at work.

I just posted in the other thread that Stevie's voice is the first thing in the commercial, all loud and strong!
SO exciting to hear Stevie's voice on a commercial!

The commercial ends with the voiceover:
"For more information about the Yellow Ribbon Fund and for a free download of Stevie Nicks' 'Soldier's Angel', go to mylifetime.com ."
Wow!!!
We should all download it to show support for Stevie!!!

On the homepage they have a link that says 'Join Stevie Nicks in supporting the Yellow Ribbon Fund'
It takes you here: http://www.mylifetime.com/shows/coming-home/stevie-nicks-yellow-ribbon-fund-donation

Ps I love that drawing they have on the website too. I'm assuming she drew it? I haven't seen it before. Wish we could donate to purchase a HQ copy of that. :)

Yeah, she's signed her name by it so it's by Stevie. I love it too and wish there were a larger version I could look at!

I unfortunately have to agree with you. :distress:

I'm shocked so few donated to Stevie's charity yesterday. Only 6? :eek: A lot of fans paid serious money to be at the Wiltern. I'm surprised the soldiers angel ebay page hasn't gotten more action. It's a great cause close to Stevie's heart. I know all of us already have Soldier's Angel because we bought IYD and many people don't care for the song. :sorry: , but I didn't donate to get the free download. I did it to support Stevie's cause. I'm also going to put it on my facebook page if the link is still active. I mean, we've all gotten together to push her to the top of indusrty polls, to get people to buy her cd, etc. It's sad her charity has so little support. People who aren't fans probably don't know about it. Even if we all can't personally donate $1.99 maybe we can spread the word online? The online campaign worked to get her on Oprah, right?

I donated. It's obviously very close to Stevie's heart. If you can spare a couple bucks, it's a great cause. :angel:

I did too. I was hoping we'd have the old girl up to double digits by now. So far Stevie has only 8 donations.
Unbelievable. :shrug:
I just donated. Is the only way to donate via Ebay by purchasing Soldier's Angel?
I know Stevie doesn't do the computer, but someone in her camp should be getting this info out to the public, if only to her die hard fans. I only knew about it by reading this topic. Or, maybe she doesn't want to push it on her fans. Anyway, thanks for the info and link.

I got onboard, but wouldn't have even known about it if it weren't for this link.
It doesn't look like everyone who donates is leaving a feedback but now there are only 9, and only a few more who didn't leave feedback...
I don't want to sound political, but does anybody out there remember the tv news during the Vietnam war? Every night we saw the dead and wounded. I think it was what made people get up and question the war. We see next to nothing now...like it's not really even happening... unless you are one of the people Stevie sings about. It breaks my heart, it really does...
