Here you go!
 

Love how Stevie looks at the video camera and sings the song!! :nod:

Another one
 

All I can tell from these snippets is we are getting some jangly songs. They are not snippeting any ballads.

Stevie talks about the vaults in this clip from an interview at the Hamptons International Film Festival, in 2012.



"The cassettes -- because I have an amazing assistant, and my girl singers, also, have been with me since 1979 -- so between those three, they really keep all those cassettes very organized. So we have vaults in Phoenix, where, because I lived there -- I had a house there until a couple years ago when I sold it -- but I still have all my storage there in Phoenix with, you know, a lot of my great stuff. And all the songs. Then we also have drawers of them here -- I mean, not here, but in Los Angeles. And they are all labelled. So we know where to go when we're looking -- you know, like with 'Annabel Lee.' We found that in the demos."

It sounds like she is singing the words 'frozen love' before turning to the camera but can't tell for sure...

The question is did Stevie & Chris keep their parents home after Barbara passed away..."The Vault" was most likely at her parents house along with all Stevie's stuff that her mom watched over...

Ballots? What's a ballot?

Ballads not sure why that says ballots

How did find she out what songs her fans wanted?:shrug: Did her assistant, aside from YouTube, do some research on this site?

From the 2 songs that we know are on there and the other projected one"Gypsy Beggar" it doesn't seem like anyone did much lurking on this site.Of course there are still 13 others that we don't know yet.

When Stevie first spoke about her new album, she noted that she recorded 17 or 18 of the 25 songs she brought to Nashville. So based on Dave's most recent tweet, it sounds like either Stevie had a poor recollection of how many songs they actually recorded, or they ultimately decided to mix and master only 16 songs, even though they recorded more. Which would be a shame.

Separately, here's a 2011 interview where Stevie talks about her song vault.

MORE: In an interview I did with you previously, you said that you saved all your old tapes from when you were writing or working on songs.

Stevie Nicks: I do. Two songs for this record were pulled right off of old cassettes. "Annabelle Lee" was pulled off of a demo I did in about 1995, and "Secret Love"--the single--was pulled from a demo from a cassette that I wrote in 1976.

More: You must be really organized to be able to find that.

SN: I'm not, but the people who have worked for me have been very organized. I bought a house in Phoenix in 1978 and from 1978 on, we have what we call "The Song Vault.” It’s a storage unit that's temperature controlled, and it's several big armoires that are shelf after shelf after shelf of everything from collections of tapes that I used to make-- that people make now for their iPods—to collections that I play when I'm on the road, starting when I first joined Fleetwood Mac. So I have all the old collections of whatever songs were hits at the time, and then there's just everything else I liked.

Can anyone else hear these lyrics?

I think I hear -

I would follow you anywhere

I don't care

What would life be without you?

Have we not learned to not take what Stevie says too seriously when she references numbers (and dates)? She tends to over exaggerate. 200 demos in Stevie math probably equates to 20 to 40 at the most.

That is what heard

Wow! I can't relate that to any of the "vault songs" we are familiar with.

I could be wildly speculating here - but it feels like to me this is a new section she may have written of "This is My Cross to Bare"

Stevie says twice in the video "I didn't care" and "I don't care" - there's a lot of "care" in the demo - maybe she rewrote it? :shrug:


This Is My Cross to Bare
(Jam Session )
I know your hope is gone away, All I know is a rainy day
Baby come and fly(?) away, I know you've got something on your back
This is my cross to bare, This is my cross to bare,
I know your hope is gone away, Died off….died away.
Well you can go and chatter(?) all day,
'Cause you've got something on him, Oh yeah… This is my cross to bare…..bare, This is my cross to bare, Oh baby, Everyone is gone away
Very gone, Everyone is gone, This is my cross to bare, Oh baby
This is my cross to bare, This is my cross to bare, This is my cross to bare
When you just don't care, This is my cross to bare,
I know this girl is always sad, I can't sleep cause you can't hide
But I know if you look inside, You will find everything is alright
Yeah… This is my cross to bare, This is my cross to bare,
This is my cross to bare, Everything is alright baby,
At least somebody cares, Even though you don't…. That's right…
This is my cross to bare, When you just don't care,
You don't know me right, You told me it would be alright
You know that? You don't know me no more. At least somebody cares…
And you know you're on your own.. ..to carry it all.
At least somebody cares.. This is my cross to bare…
This is alright….this is alright… At least somebody cares…
At least somebody cares… This is my cross to bare..
At least somebody cares… At least somebody cares…
At least somebody cares… At least somebody cares… Oh yeah….

Yes and actually ballads are what I live for. Trying to stay positive about this project. Not engaged at all by any snippets yet. Not at all.

Wow I thought I had heard everything that was out there at some point and don't recognize that last one at all...It does sound like a pretty good rocker though.

I think this might be a new one. And I concur on the wow. She's shaking her finger at us so I hope we'll get treated to this one live. :laugh:

So far I am totally loving the 3 snippets we've been given so far. I don't recognize the words to today's entry though.

It's likely she rewrote it if it is song for the album. This is just raw babbling; fodder for a more concise lyric.

well it seems like she never really wrote the songs we know is on there

likewise! the one posted today sounds amazing...very intense vocal! I also loved how into Stevie was...

It's likely she rewrote/edited it if it is song for the album. This is just raw babbling; fodder for a more concise lyric.

I'm really liking the sound of the (albeit brief) clips we've heard so far. Stevie sounds in great voice, and I happen to enjoy the jangly sound some people are complaining about.

On this latest mystery clip, I hear:

I would follow you anywhere
What would my life be without you in it
Jealous, broken, stars done shining (??)
I don't care

I have no clue what song it is based on this little snippet….

I'm also kinda hearing "jealous, broken, lies unsilenced." or "tell us broken lies unsilenced"

i hear this too


and "jealous, broken *something something*"

{ETA: glad to see i'm probably not hearing things :lol: no idea what song that fits tho}

IMO the vocals on these snippets so far sound stellar..We can say what we want about some of Dave's production choices but he has managed to coax the best vocals out of her on record in decades.

“We found all the songs that, somehow, were taken from my house or picked up or loaned out or whatever… and we went to Nashville (and recorded them),” Nicks told the Associated Press. “So they’re like all starting from like 1969 maybe? I call them my 24 Karat Gold songs.”

Perhaps this new song clip that we don't recognize is something from back in 1969? Something that was never "picked up or loaned out or whatever?" ;)

Another new pic:

"Studio Chaos as usual"

I thought about that too - something from her Fritz days.

I like the sound of all the snippets but this is my favourite snippet so far - I love this one! I tried to listen to this the other day but I couldn't get any sound so I gave up :shrug: I have since realised that I had my headphones plugged in, but not on on my head :o So its great to finally hear it. So excited about this album. :blob2:

It could be like when Stevie worked on Thrown Down & Not Make Believe during Trouble In Shangri La, and ended up pulling those songs for use in Fleetwood Mac. I think Stevie has always known when a song is destined for Fleetwood Mac vs her solo career & vice versa.

It sounds like she is finally letting loose a little bit with the vocals on this record. I loved IYD but the vocals were very controlled, she didn't let it rip too often. Passion!

I think the only reason for the jangly sound is because of how these clips are being recorded - seemingly via Dave's cell phone. So the audio isn't getting all the depth that's likely in the actual recording.
I love this stuff so far.

The music sounds a little like the demo One More Tomorrow, but the lyrics are totally different....

Huh? I don't hear that at all. That is quite a leap.

Agreed...it was a leap.... I know I have heard that music somewhere though....I just can't put my finger on it.

:shocked:

How can you tell from that? It's a bad recording.
