[sorcerer999]

Hmmm…well, my first impression is…LOVE the music! LOVE her vocal! It’s the lyrics that I’m not sure about. But, yet again, here we have only 10 seconds to go by. Like everything else, reserving judgment for the first listen of the FULL ALBUM!

[welcomechris]

Another "I Don't Care" snippet! This sounds great!

[Johnny Stew]

If Stevie had released this back when she originally wrote it, she would have rendered that Backstreet Boys song redundant by 10 or 12 years. ;)

"I don't care who you are, where you're from, what you did -- as long as you love me."

:laugh: Holy sh t, you're right!:lol:

[sorcerer999]

I guess we can safely say that this isn't a "re-titled" old demo that we've heard previously.

UNLESS...both the old and new "snippits" are just added words to an old demo, a la "Moonlight".

[Jondalar]

I like this a lot. It's a little Led Zeppelin.

[louielouie2000]

I'm just glad we finally have a rocking clip. :nod:

[sorcerer999]

I'm just glad we finally have a rocking clip. :nod:

"Belle Fleur" was a rocking clip!

[Jondalar]

"Belle Fleur" was a rocking clip!

That was countryish.

There are a bunch negative comments about this clip on Facebook which is surprising. Think people forget she is a rock artist.

So people are entitled to their own opinion

[sorcerer999]

That was countryish.

ONCE AGAIN, that's your opinion. In MY opinion, it's a fast moving ROCK song.

[Jondalar]

So people are entitled to their own opinion

Yeah and there are plenty negatives over this. Maybe she should of released a different part of the song. The lyrics are generic.

[Rod~A~Little]

The clip I've been waiting on! Stevie is singing as if she's kicking and screaming. Love the attitude...it reminds me of the way she sang on Smile At You..the angry version. Can't wait to hear the whole thing! This just made my Friday so much better!!!

being who she is , she probably heard or read it all ....until she hired Madonna's publicist she was the joke of the music industry , with Liz she bought respect .

I could care less what people think My husband can't stand her so what

[markolas]

Most of the people commenting on her FB page appear to be functionally illiterate. That makes it difficult to take their opinions seriously.

This sounds very interesting, and I like it a lot.

[APerfectLie]

Not really liking this part of the song, but I loved loved loved the first clip we heard of it. Maybe it will turn out like Everybody Loves You, which also had a lot of hate based on the intial snippet.

Those are her fans

[jkmaletic]

I like this a lot. I love the attitude, as someone else mentioned. Although the 15 second clips can be frustrating, it is nice that they're doing this. Better than nothing.

"ELY" was my 2nd fav song on IYD. And I HATED the first snippit of it. We can only hope this will be the same. Not that I'm disappointed with it, but the lyrics just seem so...I don't know...done a million times before?

The music and vocals are awesome. It's just those lyrics, man! :shrug:

[BlueDenimLamp]

Well this is different from the clip Dave posted..."I Don't care" (https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=10152091604747133&set=vb.12134457132&type=3&theater)

Judging by the clips it is a rocking song indeed...

[MoonSister75]

This is my least favourite clip so far - just personal taste on the style of song though. The song sounds good and the vocals are excellent. It will probably be one of those that grows on me when I can listen to the whole thing. I'm glad it's a change in music style from the other clips, variety on an album is so important to keep it interesting. Stevie's always liked her rockers so it's good to see one here :)

[Johnny Stew]

I like the guy who said, "Come on Stevie we need another scorcerer or rihanna."

Yes, I really do wish she would write another "Rihanna." That's my favorite song of hers. "Scorcerer" ain't half bad either.

[olive]

:(I like the guy who said, "Come on Stevie we need another scorcerer or rihanna."

Yep I prefer this clip. Looks like Stevie's enjoying it - go for it Stevie!! :blob2:

[editme2]

Yikes! The people on Facebook are being so cruel. All this hate for a 15-second clip.

I will say this clip isn't my favorite of the bunch released so far, but it's not bad. It sounds like a slow-burning blues/rock track that (based on Dave's earlier clip) picks up momentum as it goes along. I'm definitely looking forward to hearing the entire (6-minute-long!) version.

It's funny how people just cling so desperately to the young version of Stevie and have a hard time accepting that she's a 66-year-old woman who's voice has changed, who's look has evolved, yet who's passion and commitment to music and her fans is as strong as ever. I'm glad Stevie doesn't check her Facebook page, especially today!

[Johnny Stew]

It's funny how people just cling so desperately to the young version of Stevie [snip]

Yep, and they expect every song to sound like "Silver Springs" or "Landslide."

Or "Rihanna" and "Scorcerer."

[sorcerer999]

Or "Rihanna" and "Scorcerer."

I'm dying over here! Choking on my snack reading your posts! Too funny!!!

[MoonSister75]

I'm dying over here! Choking on my snack reading your posts! Too funny!!!

I know, just brilliant :laugh:

[Machu]

I like it a lot. I also love that it is clearly going to build from a slow rocker to an all-out head banger.

So far, my ranking of the snippets (not including the two full songs we have):

01. Belle Fleur
02. Mabel Normand
03. I Don't Care
04. If You Were My Love
05. All The Beautiful Worlds

What I think is going to be so great about this album is that the songs sound so diverse that everybody's favorites are likely going to be dramatically different. I can see why people would dislike "I Don't Care" if they are fans of the 'airy-fairy' Stevie but I remember many comments from people wishing there was more rock on In Your Dreams and this is definitely ROCK. Luckily, I like both! :cool:

[HoursAndHours]

I'm dying over here! Choking on my snack reading your posts! Too funny!!!

It's that kind of illiterate hilarity that keeps me from being too upset at the exceptionally rude commentary. I wish she or her team would go on Facebook and tell some of these people to go f@c& off. :sorry:

Edit: Actually I wish she'd pretend to be a witch and tell them they're cursed or something.

[tabruns]

01. Belle Fleur
02. Mabel Normand
03. I Don't Care
04. If You Were My Love
05. All The Beautiful Worlds



Mine would be:

1. All The Beautiful Worlds
2. Mabel Normand
3. Belle Fleur
4. If You Were My Love
5. I Don't Care

But I've liked everything, including "The Dealer" and "Lady".

[wheart]

LOVE IT!! The sound caught me by surprise since everything we've heard so far has been somewhat sedate in terms of production. Her vocal on this sounds killer also. This is the first snippet that made me really want to hear the entire song.

[tabruns]

I like it, and I think the snippets have shown a good diversity of music. So whoever it was that said "It all sounds the same" needs a head check.

[BombaySapphire3]

I'm with the people who like the vocals and sound of the song but feel that the lyrics are a bit pedestrian .I noticed that this song is so far the longest on the album that has a time posted .So just hoping it isn't nearly 6 minutes of "I Don't Care" repeated interminably.

[sorcerer999]

Tell me if anyone had the same experience upon listening to this clip for the first time...

She sings the first two lines...

"I don't care where you go
I don't care what you do..."

(I start bobbing my head and groovin' out to the music and the rhythm)

She sings the next line...

"I don't care what you said..."

(still bobbing the head and groovin' and waiting for a good line and word that rhymes with "do")

and then she sings...

"I just care that you love me!!!"

HUH? (double take) Well...THAT was a bit unexpected.

Anyone else put off by this, just a little bit? Like I said before, it's only 15 seconds of a sample, and I'm sure there is a hell of a lot more going on in this song (as evidenced by Dave Stewart's FIRST video snippit many months ago) but I just found it odd that they decided to post this portion of the song.

[WatchChain]

It's hard to tell what anything will sound like with only a 10 second snippet. However, I must say that I'm unimpressed by "I Don't Care" thus far. This is the first track what I'm not really excited about.

The lyrics in the snippet are not impressive but the music is good. The snippet backfired.

i dont like the lyrics either from this clip :sorry:
she sounds like a pouty 13 year old or something

[Keith]

feels like an interesting track - not a big fan of the lyrics. Hopefully, there is a "in the middle of my room, I did not hear from you" moment in the song somewhere.. One month today and my vinyl copy of 24 Karat Gold should be at my door. :blob2:

The lyrics of "I Don't Care" are on Metrolyrics.com. Is this legit?

http://www.metrolyrics.com/i-don-t-care-lyrics-stevie-nicks.html

Why is it
I'm the one
Who is always cleaning up your mess
I Don't Care
Where you hide
I Don't Care
Where you go
I Don't Care
What you do
I Don't Care
What you said
I just care that you love me

Your in trouble again
For the wrong things
I didn't know her
I didn't know you
There she goes again
Ooh, she says
"Do you think that this could be one?"

Cause' I don't really care unless you love me

I just care of the hard work I've owed you anywhere
What would my life be without you in it
(Each others broken, lost outside of this)
I Don't Care!

You don't even have to believe
Just open your eyes and baby you'll see
I Don't Care!
I Don't Care!
I Don't Care

I Don't Care
Where you go
I Don't Care
What you say
I Don't Care
What you do
I Don't Care
What you want
I just care that you love me
And don't tell me anything else
Just tell me that you need me

Baby!
I just care of the hard work I've owed you anywhere
What would my life be without you in it
(Each others broken, lost outside of this)
I Don't Care!

You don't even have to believe
Just remember what you said to me
Long ago, baby
And don't tell me anything else
Just tell me that you need me
And anything else...
I Don't Care.......

If this is legit, it shares a few lyrics with the "Priest of Nothing" demo we have.

[WildHearted]

I'm not really feeling this one - the arrangement is so melodramatic while the words are not very compelling, which is an odd mix...

I kind of took this to be a nicer Stevie way of saying "I don't care as long as you f*** me"

I don't care what else you're doing in your life, this isn't about that; I just care that the sex with you is amazing and as long as you're doing me, that's the only bit of your life I care about.

It's Mama gettin' her dirty on. Love it.

[HoursAndHours]

It makes perfect sense in the context of an open relationship. Go see whoever you want, f@c& whoever you want, but you only get be in love with me... After Stevie's storied history, I can certainly see her being in just such a scenario with someone. :nod:

[Johnny Stew]

I'm dying over here! Choking on my snack reading your posts! Too funny!!!

Thanks! :o Always glad to make someone smile.

[bombaysaffires]

I just care of the hard work I've owed you anywhere

now THAT'S a tortured lyric (ie a real stretch to make sense of it) even for Stevie.

But I can see this being a song about Joe.

I can't say I'm that surprised by this. Stevie's songwriting technique knows no bounds. She changes tenses often (as Lindsey tried to point out in the Destiny Rules DVD), she rhymes him with him and me with me...not exactly the best songwriting skills. And sometimes her "he says" and "she says" constantly can grate my nerves. All in all though, we know she can write some killer tunes!

Hard to know. Might have been at one time; might be made up by someone.

Doesn't match the bit on Dave's clip:

I don't care
I would follow you anywhere
What would my life
be without you in it?
Jealous, broken
(dark?)and silent
I don't care!

Look, nobody can make out exactly what shes singing in Dave's clip. The quality is horrendous it was recorded over a phone, then put on a laptop and recorded over a phone again. If this is the right lyrics for I Don't Care then it is not the worst stevie's ever written but it's still bad

Yes, the "He says, She says" are one of the weaknesses in her writing. And she too often emphasizes and reminds us to "remember."

[markolas]

Now y'all stop that. Ivory Keys says that we hate Stevie and think she's talentless and worthless. We should say ONLY positive things about Stevie!!!!!!

[sorcerer999]

Yeah, well...MOST of the folks over at Ivory Keys have the brain power equivalent to that of a goldfish...or a ladybug. They love EVERYTHING Stevie does. They think every song she writes is stellar. They praise the subpar and the atrocious. They're incapable of any "critical thought or analysis". Top 40 is right up their alley.

...but I digress...

Well, I (usually) love the atrocious stuff too, but that doesn't mean I can't call it what it is. :D

[Macfanforever]

I dont care either.LOL.

Song with an attitude.She wants to get her point across.


I couldn't get much out of the quick clip but I would like to hear the complete tune soon.

What vintage is this song and which album it supposed to go on and who she's pissed at.I forgot the info and absent on the day at SN101 class.

[StreetAngel86]

Well, I (usually) love the atrocious stuff too, but that doesn't mean I can't call it what it is. :D

this forum would be bloody @s$ BORING if all everyone did on here was praise EVERYTHING Stevie did ALL the bloody time

This song is her bEST
so is this one
WOAH i love this song
this is her best album ever
so is this one
that lyric is perfect :laugh:

[gldstwmn]

I just care of the hard work I've owed you anywhere

now THAT'S a tortured lyric (ie a real stretch to make sense of it) even for Stevie.



It seems like it's misquoted. I'll bet that's not the correct lyric.

[bombaysaffires]

It seems like it's misquoted. I'll bet that's not the correct lyric.

Agreed. In my earlier post I put what I *think* the lyric is on Dave's clip. Guess we'll just have to wait and see!

[pryderi]

Don't mean to change the subject but after hearing the old watchain demo, I think this song could be epic.

[Hawkeye]

I did not think it would be possible for stevie to keep knocking on doors as is. I thought there's no way she could any of the songs we know from the 70's that relied so heavily just on her soft voice. But I'm shocked. This is better then her vocal on knocking on doors. Think this might be my favorite ballad of hers other then storms crystal and beautiful child. Those 3 are untouchable. But I may like it more then any of her solo ballads.

And I disagree that Lady isn't an appropriate title. I feel she repeats the "lady you don't have to see" line as much if not more then "I'm tired of knocking on doors" and she definitely sings that line the most passionately.

[Hawkeye]

Oops, wrong song discussion.

[MoonSister75]

Don't mean to change the subject but after hearing the old watchain demo, I think this song could be epic.

I'm really excited to hear what they have done with Watch Chain.

I also prefer the vocals on the new Lady. I really love the old demo, but I'm so impressed with this new version.

I'd also agree with you about the title of Lady. It's just as good as Knocking on Doors, and it looks great on the single cover :)

[HoursAndHours]

I'm really excited to hear what they have done with Watch Chain.

Me too. I'm having a terrible time not referring to it as Watch Devil, though. :laugh:

[Jondalar]

Reading the comments, I'm still floored at how much people hate this song has received on Facebook. Most of the hate revolves around the lyrics too, which doesn't bode well for awards.

That amount of hate for a 10 second clip is just stupid. I'm glad I don't use facebook - uughh :shrug:


Have they forgotten about the clip Dave posted? I don't remember people hating that. I think it sounds great.

Well this is different from the clip Dave posted..."I Don't care" (https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=10152091604747133&set=vb.12134457132&type=3&theater)

Judging by the clips it is a rocking song indeed...
