"Without You" Will be a New FM Song

[Bandon]

According to an interview on Access Hollywood via http://www.nickslive.blogspot.com/, Stevie says "Without You" will be released as an FM song. She sings I think part of the second verse! Stevie also goes on to say she wrote it about Lindsey. I didn't know which one wrote it until now. Also, Mick says this is the fastest selling FM tour in 24 years (since Tango in the Night?). Stevie says she knew when they were recording the new songs.... the tour was going to be huge, and says it was like "witchery" that she knew. You can hear the interviewer chuckling, but whatever....that's our Stevie. :nod:

[Villavic]

Also, Mick says this is the fastest selling tour in 24 years (Tango in the Night?).

Faster than the Reunion tour (The Dance)? Hard to believe, isn't it?

[WildHearted]

Those are not the words to Without You, Stevie :lol: Close, though.

Lol @ Mick thanking Stevie for the premonition of the tour being big.

[Bandon]

Those are not the words to Without You, Stevie :lol: Close, though.

Yeah, the word "symphony" is "melody" in the demo. The rest of the verse appears to be the same. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fc3VbDk3Fv4

[WildHearted]

Yeah, the word "symphony" is "melody" in the demo. The rest appears to be the same.

Demo:
"Come to me now, and I'll never know another
You are a song for me, a melody
Ingrained in my soul
Sing, sing your song
For my ears they only hear you"

Stevie:
"Come to me now, for my eyes they only see you
You are a song for me, a symphony
Ingrained in my heart"


But yeah, close enough. :lol: Clearly I've been listening to it rather obsessively lately haha.

Yeah, that's it. Either she has changed the words or couldn't remember them since it's from so long ago. The demo sounds like Lindsey is lead vocal..that's why I didn't know which one wrote it. It will be interesting to learn who is lead in the new version.

[jkmaletic]

I have this on a boot cd, but was it actually part of the original Polydor BN release or was it a demo that never made it onto the record? I can't remember..

Jamie

[Johnny Stew]

They sing that part twice in the original demo -- I wonder if maybe, for the recording, they'll sing it the way we know it the first time, and then switch it up with "my eyes they only see you" and "a song for me, a symphony" for the second.

Either way, I cannot wait to hear it!

[Johnny Stew]

It wasn't a part of the original album, but it's often tacked onto bootleg copies.

Even though Stevie keeps questioning why it didn't make it onto 'Buckingham Nicks,' I think it was actually demoed for the second album they were working on when Fleetwood Mac came calling.

Lindsey thinks so too.

I've seen online that it was supposedly written by both of them?

According to a recent interview, Stevie said "Without You" could have gone on the BN LP, but had no idea why it didn't make it (She said the same thing about "Secret Love" and "Planets of the Universe" not making it onto Rumours.) Lindsey explained "Without You" was written after BN was recorded, and Stevie said something like, "Oh." :nod:

yup, Lindsey keeps saying in the interviews every time when Stevie brings up that she doesn't know why it was not on the original BN "cause it wasn't recorded yet". you can see him saying that in one of those videos from the series they couple of weeks ago, and she replies "you know, i think you are right!"

LOL. We know our SN/LB/FM. :D

i think you are right! i kept going back in between written and recorded b/c i couldn't remember which was it. he said the same thing it that his and hers RS interview so that might be the easy place to check.

[elle]

so to be honest, while i'm happy that they are finally releasing a song, i'm a bit disappointed that we will not hear a completely new song that we know nothing about yet. but hopefully once they release the first one, other 2 will follow in a short succession.

Did they specify? I thought she said they just decided to put it in the FM "wicker basket" with the others.

Also nice to hear her say that maybe they could get another song recorded - good that she's at least open to the idea of doing more new music.

People are always saying they want to hear new studio versions of demos instead of saying they want to hear great new material. The new versions of demos can be good, and I am curious to hear them, but I know the songs already and would rather hear a great new song. The one exception for me was the revised version of Planets of the Universe, which was killer. :thumbsup:

ah, guess i should listen to the interview before jumping to conclusions from just reading this thread. :)

I found it rather amusing. Apparently Lindsey's studio is like a bunker.

just did. thanks for pointing it out Bandon! so it's another one from the series they did that one day in village recorder studio.

and agree, they didn't say anything about which song will be released first, just that Without you will be released as FM, not as BN.

it would seem they have maybe just a few days left before going into rehearsals so i hope they got their asses into gear with recording additional songs by now. holed up in Lindsey's "bunker" studio under his garage ;)

[elle]

Why? Have you heard it?

i think Michele is not very happy with the lyrics that stevie and lindsey quoted as being a part of that song. also, if you search youtube for fuse fleetwood mac interview, some people are speculating that the background music for most of that video might be instrumental for Sad Angel, while the rocking music at the end might be Miss Fantasy.

Okay...I see. Well I have been under-impressed by a lot of Lindsey's music for the past 16 years, so I can understand the concern.

interesting, so you were under-impressed with GOS1, UTS, GOS, SWS?

see, for me GOS1 and SWS are stellar and contain a lot of my favorite LB music and GOS1 is perhaps the greatest album never released. but i do think that his music is and always was all over the place and in tons of different directions so it's really hard to tell where he will go next. during UTS and GOS years he seemed to be unable to write non-grating hooks, and then he came back with those unbelievable hooks on SWS. but the 3 songs from This is 40 soundtrack were somewhat... well, not that great. ;)

i'm pretty sure you can see it if you look up those 3 songs in Lindsey forum.

I'm in the camp that would love to see my favorite demos recorded and released over new material. :o

"Without You" is one of my all time faves! :woohoo:

Well, that's what she said - that they were going to save it for the BN 40th anniversary and then she said, no let's go ahead and put it in the FM basket.

Oh, I thought she was just saying that they were gonna save it in case they ended up doing something for the release (Stevie didn't even seem to know when the actual anniversary was :lol:). Not that they were certainly going to.

Of course, I hope you're right and that there are plans in the works!

[elle]

Lindsey, do not listen to her.

Yeah - they're doing it. I don't think she's pulling out that oldie to record "just in case". I also think they're putting out with FM to create more interest in BN...which is already being increased with the Sound City movie. :D

I love how she says she couldn't write a song like that now because she's not in love with anyone like that now and at the same time they are holding hands. How cute is that? ;)

[jkmaletic]

I can't wait to hear this. I think I might even get emotional when I hear it hecause it'll be like full circle for them, you know? So cool.

I hope they do it at the upcoming shows and NOT drop it by the time they get to Cali.

I know!!! I hope they don't drop anything, really. I would love for them to just keep a set in place. Especially if it's new songs. It's a treat to hear them live for the first time in person and it's nice to have the social media, but still not the same as being there to experience.

[michelej1]

Karen told Lindsey and Stevie to get back to work. Apparently, she was tired of listening to their 100 stories.

Michele

[shackin'up]

For the millions they are going to make, I'd Hold hands with all my exes. It's always a bit hypocrite. when I look at them, I think: She'll be telling stories about how aweful the tour and Lindsey was, 12 to 16 months from now...

[CADreaming]

But still, of all the songs to dig out of BN vault - "Without You"!

They could have done "Heartbreaker" or "You Won't Forget Me" or I'm sure others we don't know about.

I know it's sappy to the cynics. But, it's sappy because as Lindsey says - it's sweet. :)

I'm so excited! I can't wait to hear all the new material! To have any nod towards BN is just simply the most divine icing on the cake! Buckingham Nicks is the last thing they haven't truly focused on. I mean, the mainly FM fans have gotten new Mac stuff and the mainly SN/LB fans have gotten several new solo projects from them since The Dance. So, forgive me if I relish in these small Buckingham Nicks moments and thanks for humoring my happy delirium.

[FierySequences]

Oh, I thought she was just saying that they were gonna save it in case they ended up doing something for the release (Stevie didn't even seem to know when the actual anniversary was :lol:). Not that they were certainly going to.

Of course, I hope you're right and that there are plans in the works!

See, what I heard SN say was "we were saving it for BN anniversary" as in a matter of fact that they were going to do something.

But again, this may be SN talking out her ars...to publicize FM/her reunion with LB.

I agree that she may have the dates wrong...but if BN was released in 73 then wouldn't this year be the 40th anni? (this is not a sarcastic comment, I just did the math, lol)

Also, this is Not a popular opinion here, but instead of doing a new FM album, why not take the new recordings with WY, Heartbreaker, IYWML, etc and release them as FM on the 2nd disc to a BN reissue. :shrug:
Makes perfect sense to me.

[KarmaContestant]

Hmm...So Without You is being released, and is going to be a Fleetwood Mac song. That's great, but just reinforces that there will be no BN reissue. As it has been in the past, I believe that this BN talk is just that - talk - to garner interest in the FM tour.

[CADreaming]

It's happening. It's obviously more than talk now. :)

[Andrew Smith]

So, is this track (Without You) going to be featured on a Fleetwood Mac release, such as a new FM album or Greatest Hits compilation? I can't see it being released as a FM single and that's it! I can't see them including it on a Buckingham Nicks reissue either if it's being released under the Fleetwood Mac name, although I do hope the original Buckingham Nicks version will be inlcluded on a Buckingham Nicks reissue (if this ever happens). It was featured on the bootleg Deluxe Edition of Buckingham Nicks.

Did you listen to the video interview where Stevie said they were going to save Without You to be released with the 40th anniversary BN but decided to release it with FM instead? That's as good as official. In conjunction with the other facts I have posted regarding the licensing of two BN songs in the Sound City movie.

Geez, I hate repeating myself. :rolleyes:

Yeah, if you checkout the recent videos and articles, Stevie and Lindsey say they have decided to release BN. Will it actually happen? Only time will tell.

can't be that i'm the only one who thinks BN 1973 album is way overrated?

[Lilyfan]

can't be that i'm the only one who thinks BN 1973 album is way overrated?

I'm from Birmingham where that album was a big hit. They played it on the radio constantly. Frozen Love and Long Distance Winner were the first two songs I ever heard by them. For me, all it took was one time with Frozen Love and I was a Buckingham Nicks fan for life. Is it overrated? Possibly by today's standards, but back then - it was the real deal.

[SteveMacD]

can't be that i'm the only one who thinks BN 1973 album is way overrated?
You're not alone. It's got a few good songs, but it shows me that they needed Fleetwood Mac as badly as Fleetwood Mac needed them. I suspect the fact it hasn't been available commercially for over 35 years lends to its legend.
