Some of those are a stretch.
You forgot Think About Me

His guitar and backing vocals on The Smile I live for should qualify it for the list.

I didn’t include Think About Me because of Stevie’s vocals.

Where? Is that Stevie, Christie, or Lindsey at 0:19 on the second vocal on the line "and I think it would work out"?

Who is Christie?

I've never noticed Stevie on TAM, other than the oohs at the end.

Christie is the jiggly fellow who made a traffic jam on the George Washington Bridge. :laugh:

Still amazing that Think About Me was played on the On With the Show Tour. Wonder if Christine brought it up during rehearsal.

Stevie comes in on the chorus.

I don't hear her on the chorus. I don't hear her on the "oohs" at the end. If anything, I hear her only at the 0:19-mark on second vocal on the line "and I think it would work out" (though even there I'm not so sure it isn't Lindsey).

I frequently listen to the live version that's on YouTube, so my visions aren't so crystalline.

I dig it. And I can hear and understand why you picked the songs here.

You can really hear Stevie better on the reissues and the the 5.1 surround sound mix. She is definitely on this track.

The reissues and alternate tracks definitely have Stevie. But she is on Think About Me as much as Hold Me. Only live in concert.
She may be in the mix but turned way way down to not hear her. Chris and Lindsey sound so good together. Lindsey and Chris sing the entire song together. Sort of like Dont Stop. Its not until the very end of Dont You Look back that there is a trace of Stevie.

But Stevie's backing vocals on Songbird give me goosebumps every time.

I've toyed around w making a Best of BuckVie playlist before. This inspired me to go at it again, this time in two volumes, split by earlier & later eras.
I have a few "stretches" on here too, I do agree that Think About Me should be included, though I am in the "I can hear Stevie on it" camp- she's doing a very low harmony in the chorus, I can hear her most on the word "think". The song is very BuckVie in spirit nonetheless.
Same, IMO, for Bleed To Love Her, even w Stevie's vocals tacked on. We all know how that song was born, again, I feel it fits in w the spirit (think of how well it would sit on the actual BuckVie album, in an alternate reality)

I came up with this:

Vol. I

World Turning
Think About Me
Shadow of The West
Don't Stop
Eyes of the World
The Smile I Live For
Hold Me
Down Endless Street
Isn't It Midnight

Vol. II
Everywhere
Bleed To Love Her
Feel About You
You and I, Full Version
Red Sun
In My World
On With The Show
Carnival Begin
Where We Belong

Agree with all of this. The intent of Don't Stop, Hold Me, TAM, etc. all have a sort of "etiquette" that this turned out Buck Vie. And live just confuses it when she gets in there. Sometimes it works.. until it doesn't.

When she adds her "YEAH's" at the end of the live World Turning, I want to strangle her. STFU, Stevie! Musicians are at work here! Go polish the taped down jingles on your tambourine!
