Another "New" Stevie song......
 

This time it's Lily Girl.

Mathew first posted this on Nancy's board and thought I would pass it along. It is a reel and purchased by a "group of fans" from a source that is not well know. It is not in circulation at this time. Thanks Mathew for the info/lyrics.



Lily Girl
Stevie Nicks
4-15-88, take 2
Originally transcribed by Jan and Jill

One found out all the sudden what was going on
And this made you mad and he said
I'm not gonna do this anymore
Well, I can't live like this
She was a Lily Girl
Not made for this world
Veiled eyes covering nights of tears... nights of tears
Like the blue blue water and the crystal fountains
Why I simply could not believe it

One found out all of a sudden
We don't have so very much in common
You don't have very much to say
So you tell me what it is that you are wanting
Just look at me with those signs and say nothing

We don't talk to each other every day
In fact, sometimes weeks go by
We don't speak and then something in the mail comes
She goes a little bit into shock

Ooh he's back, something's gotta go wrong, I know
She was a Lily Girl
Not made for this world
Veiled eyes covering a night of tears... night of tears

We don't talk to each other every day
In fact, sometimes weeks go by
We don't speak, we don't have very much in common
And we don't have very much to say

Would you just tell me what it is
That you're wanting from me
Just look at me with those eyes
And you say nothing

One found out all of the sudden what was going on
She was a Lily Girl,
Not made for this world

We found out all of the sudden
What was going on
And what made you mad
When you said
We don't have so very much in common anyway
But you don't have anything else to say

We don't talk to each other every day
No, sometimes we don't talk for weeks
Weeks go by
We don't speak

Just everything about this
Is too good to be true
Something's going to go wrong, I know

And you wake up in the middle of the night
It's just a bad dream baby
No, it was a nightmare
And it started a fight

It was a bad dream baby... she was a Lily Girl

I guess sararhiannon.com was the first to break this news. Thanks! :)

Good Lord. Gee, i wonder why this wasn't released? :rolleyes:

Christ, what a beast. :eek:

LOL

We can fill a 2 disc "CrapSpace....Worse of Stevie Nicks" yet.

We've already got that, Curtis, now we're shooting for "Disenchanted" as a deluxe four-disc boxed set. I think all master reel songs would qualify.

"We don't speak and then something in the mail comes
She goes a little bit into shock"

What the f*ck is in the mail? :laugh:

A. Anthrax
B. a plugged in toaster that is wet
C. an actual hit song

D. Her dealer's bill
E. A book on grammar
F. A swift kick in the ass

a) High Top Reeboks
b) A black dress
c) A horrifying glimpse at her future

GAWD. It was recorded in '88. I bet Kenny G plays the clarinet and Rupert Hine produced it. :distress:

:shocked: And I bet it has that Klonopin voice on it, too.

"Onnnnnnee fooooound oooout allllll ooooooof aaaaaaaaa suuuuuuudddden whaaaaaaaaaaaat waaaaaaaaaaaaaas goooooooooing onnnnnnnnnnnnn."

This song is going to be classic!

:laugh: :p :laugh: :p :laugh:

Hmm, sorry, Stevie, but that's not going to be my new favorite song anytime in the next hundred years.

Of course, being that these are transcribed lyrics, there might be a few errors and perhaps (hopefully) some of the lines aren't quite as atrocious as they seem.

But, beyond that, I'm not finding any redeeming qualities in this one.
I'd venture to say that this song is probably one of the ones Stevie is thinking of, when she says she didn't write anything good during the height of the Klonopin addiction.

Didn't she say in an interview that she had given like 100 songs to Rupert and they went through them and HE had to narrow them down, cause she loved them all so he narrowed it down to 50... down to 20.. and so on... and so on.

So, I wouldn't doubt that there's a lot more where this came from!

Ei yi yi. Let's hope that one stays in the vaults. :laugh:

That paragraph is also used in a song known as The Tragedy Of One's Own Soul. so I'm thinking this song probably sounds somewhat along those lines. Another OSOTM outtake that most of us didn't know about?

Good eye! :xoxo:

As for other OSOTM outtakes, I hope that Love Don't Fail Me Now surfaces on a master reel. I've always kind of liked that song, it's very torch singer-esque.

I'd love to have a clean version of The Tragedy...I kind of love that song, Kenny G and all. :shocked:

:p

I like it for the first couple minutes, but by minute seven, I'm ready to gas up the oven. :laugh:

Yeah, what on earth did she do to that poor baby to make her kill herself? Damn you & your mean letter Mrs. Huber! :mad:

Wait...

Finally, someone else who admits to liking that song! I think it's beautiful - one of my favorites. And unlike "Lily Girl" its lyrics are coherent.

It might be better if this never leaves its cave :p

OKAY. I have only read the title of this thread, and the first post with the lyrics. After I press "submit reply", I am going to read the rest of this thread to see if this is all just a practical joke.

Did you wake up in the middle of the night, Sparks?
It's just a bad dream baby
No, it was a nightmare
And it started a fight
Ooh, ooh, la-la-la-la, fairy farts
Check your mail tomorrow, no spoken words
You'll go into a little shock

:woohoo:

Lord Have Mercy. It's real.

This ranks right up there with Dial The Number.

I am going to go see if I have any alcohol in the house. I know I have a Xanax. I may need both. If there was a recording circulating, I think it might make Dissention start drinking.

What the hell is in the mailbox ?

1. A thesaurus
2. Mel Bay's Guitar Chords
3. Betty Ford HERSELF...and she is pissed off.

:lol: Too late, bud.

Maybe it was a chastity belt in the mailbox. Would explain many, many things. Or maybe Connie and Raymond Marble sent her a package. :eek:

The lyrics are just about the worst I've seen from her -- and that's saying something -- but I'd still love to hear it. I guess I'm an incurable completist. :)

I also love Dial The Number, another song from that period. But yes, there's something so...Stevie about Tragedy. Kenny G really adds to the song too and I don't usually like his music. I think it really reflects where she was at during that period. And it is just so sad. :distress:

Worse than "no you write your songs yourself?". :lol: No way.

Oh. Shameful! :lol:

Ah, but I have very, very little shame.
:woohoo:

Not even that unfortunate motel incident :eek:

You actually made me stop and think for a minute. Something from Phoenix briefly entered my mind and I had to kind of....block it out.

:shocked:
