This is the only song Stevie did with the mac that I don't like. |
It's the only Stevie song on Tango in the Night that I like. Actually I love it. The vulnerability of her vocal, the sadness of the lyrics and LB's voice distant and questioning at the end absolutely make the song.
Although I do love Storms I've always thought it was a little contrived. This sounds from the heart. |
Thanks Vanessa for posting it.
I have Tango on vinyl (thank you to some long lost Ebay seller around Christmas time) but haven't listened to it yet. This weekend when it is hotter than a pizza oven here in Denver, I will go to the basement and dig out the turntable, which is buried somewhere under the stairs... Till then, I will enjoy the computer version you have so graciously shared with me! :D Thanks Vanessa and WildHeart for your kindess is responding to me. |
Thanks for posting that Vanessa! I didn't have that one :)
Actually WISYA is one of the only songs from Tango I didn't bother to purchase from iTunes [just when I got into FM]....I didnt get FM, WTTR...S, or WISYA. I'm Kindof warming up to WTTR...S, and FM is starting to be alright [youtube video...], but WISYA is not worth the dollar to me from what I can make out of the song. I might limewire it :laugh: It does sound sad, like the lyrics do [nicksfix/buckinhgamnicks.net], and her voice on the 30 second sample sound very child like, vaunerable. Ill have to check it out :nod: |
When I see you again....
When I See You Again is my fav FM song....It summarizes Stevie and Lindsey's relationship completely.
Remember she wrote this as she was going away to Betty Ford (the first time) for her coke addiction... I think she was frightened to death !!!! About her voice, her future , without drugs and cigaretts, her writing influences, you can feel very creative when you are high, and she was going away to give that up...What would happen to her? ...And mostly.. her Lindsey.... I think it's soul bearing, raw, incredible vunerable, frightened ,honest and just heart wrenching lyrics that she was completely feeling, when she wrote it. More than any other song she has written. And her vocals were not great at that time, she was checking into Betty for a reason... and that is why she sounds so bad. I mean think about if it were you. You have been with the same man since you were 17, for good or bad- He has ALWAYS been there with her. And he keeps saying "What's a matta baby? over and over-cuz he knows she is not his Stevie!, not in this state. She sings the lyric, but I think it is his question. So, Now, she is leaving, and what if it's not the same when she comes back?, will he still love her? will he still be her best friend? whether they are fighting or laughing, or whatever...at this point I think she still consideres him her best friend--------- Or will she have been replaced by another? Hard lyrics to write, forget about sing without having emotion in your voice! I also love the ending when Lindsey sings back to her while he is playing the accoustic guitar...It is so fitting- It is where they started and now they may be parting... She says..."When I see you again, will it be the same?" He says..."IF I see you again, will it be the same?" Two very different questions. This has always been my favorite soing to discuss (besides Frozen Love) In reality I think it is only the 2nd song they sing lyrics back and forth to each other....I could talk about this song all day...I love the intensity Anyone else? ~~eclipse~ |
I like WISYA. But then again, I do all Stevie songs, but this song is nice and very sad.
It was recorded before she checked into rehab right? |
WISYA is so tender and sad, it's brilliantly understated on the album, I think.
And for me as well, it's Lindsey's part at the end that really gets me!! It's the lyric change from "When I see you" to "If I see you" that's so tragic. I wonder whose idea that was, Stevie's or Lindsey's? I think this alternate mix is better than the album version, though; the way the voices blend at the end and kind of answer each other just fits the whole thing better and brings out that sadness, in my opinion. http://www.yousendit.com/download/bW...SWg4aU0wTVE9PQ |

The saddest thing about When I See You Again is that it made it onto Tango in the Night :laugh:
