Best wailing And ooooh aaaaahs.
 

Taaaaake it wiiiiiith you ahhhh haaaa!!! Violet and Blue wow shes smoking here really some of her best belting.

I have others I love but this is my current favorite.

oh wow...I'm gonna have to think about this one for a bit!! good thread....I just have to ponder for a few!!

Violet & Blue..Straight Back...Edge Of 17..One More Bigtime R&R Star!!!

Yes Straight Back is another fav! Love the Wo Oh about 3/4 a way thru the song its like an exilirating declaration of emotion, just love it.

o.k...of course sisters of the moon on mirage

blame it on my wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiilllllllldddddd heeaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrtttttt!!!

rhiannon from rosebud-the entire end..
ALL the saaahame...ALL the saahaame....

I'll try to think of more...

Yup WH for sure prob her best overall.

I also love the the Sable on Blonde starting with the "just how deep do you hold that dream in your hands each night Oh in your hands each night" then " this time I think that it was youuuu babyyyyyyyyy woooo oh oh oooo oh" its almost like she goes into delirium(sp?) mode!

Sable on Blonde is my favorite. She sings it with such emotion. You can feel her pain.

Agreed! There have been other threads to this song but I never get tired of hearing it or talking about it. To be its everything that is Stevie Nicks. Its like an ampted up sequel to Dreams and Iv always wished with all my heart that she would have done an entire album with songs like that, lush, smooth, nice strong bass drum interaction and perfect vocals. Something tells me that song took alot of practice and overdubs to create and is the reason there arent more songs like it. Though BatB in the perfect follow up to it.

Wailing, not whaling. Unless Stevie's out catching whales. Which I highly doubt.

OOOps! Thanks spelling police. One thing Iv always wondered though about people like you do you go around in real life correcting people all the time or only on line cause your anon?

I mean in real life if you did that people prob would hate you right?

Sorry; I'm a grammar/spelling nazi. I correct people all the time. I can't help it. That's just the way I am. People don't seem to mind. :shrug:

And "your" should be "you're" in "or only on line cause your anon?" :sorry:

No one cares here but u though, at least contribute to the thread and make yourself valuable to the online community. Otherwise your just a scary lurker.

Part of the fun of a chat room is that you dont have to edit yourself as much when writting but I guess someone like you wouldnt understand that. Anyway I understand your anger and desperation, these are hard times we r a livin!

I understand that most people don't love grammar as much as I do. I'm not trying to start any arguments. I just thought the whaling/wailing thing was kind of funny. :sorry:

So, I'll make myself valuable to the community. I really like the "Weeeeellllllll I don't think you do" in the newer live versions of Rhiannon.

Thank you! And i apologize too, and im glad you pointed out the wailing/whaling thing but i wish you would have first followed the thread and then pointed it out. Anyway no worries.

Good example too I like that one, she has many "wells" in her songs and she more often than not stretches them out like in your example.

Just what is scary about a "lurker"? :rolleyes:

Back on your little topic here, :rolleyes:, about the "whaling" I'd say that Stevie's best "whale" would be from "The Dance". Gold Dust Woman. She looked quite slim and not at all "whale-like."

I love Sable on Blond.

Gold Dust Woman from Japan 1977 and the Dance. :blob2:

I really try not to be a lurker. But I also try not to post too much, because I'm afraid I'll annoy people. Like I am now.

Stevie's "whaling" on GDW is great. She looks very non whale-like. :laugh:

Why? There's no harm in reading and not posting. Who the hell cares about that? :p


.The people who are annoying are (teenaged) newbies who tell others how they should be posting/lurking etc. THOSE people need a good slap upside the head. :eek: :thumbsup:

I was going to make some mention of this myself, but looks like someone beat me to it.

I was going to point out that if Stevie's whaling, Greenpeace must be pretty pissed off.

You know what annoys me? Bad spelling. :)
Oh, and GDW Japan. "Oooowooowowowowowowowaaaoooowwwooooaaawwww"

Don't you all forget the Love Is Like A River yell. :thumbsup:

I like them in IYEDB, too.

Yip, you beat me to it, I was going to bring that one up. Tres fabulous, and I don't recommend trying to 'whale' along with it, unless you want to end up with a sore throat. :laugh:

There are a couple people here who post way too often and come across as pretentious twit know it alls. Thats what annoys me.

And those same peeps, one in particular, seems to trash Stevie far too often, that also is annoying. Yes Stevie has had her share of clunkers and there is nothing wrong in discussing them, but again some take it too far and end up looking like haters.

Spelling errors? If that annoys you you must be a very uptight person. Content, stupidity and misguided anger is what annoys me.

A lurker is harmless and is a noun.

Scary is a verb or maybe an adverb.

Choose your battles wisely.

"Take your violet and blue mornings with you"

Put them together and you have scary lurker my way of describing the spelling police.

Actually, it's an adjective. :wavey:

Hey! I'm a teenaged newbie! Please don't slap me upside the head! :laugh:

No, I'm just a person who spells well. And enjoys the clarity that good spelling brings to any expression of thought.
I said it annoys me, I didn't say I would die if someone spelled something wrong.

Hold on now...

We should give Wolfontherun some credit. She/he did not actually misspell the word but rather used the wrong word which, IMO, is far more annoying than a simple spelling error. ;)

Turn off Mom's computer, now. "It's Late" and you'll just get into a "Whole Lotta Trouble" telling people in this forum how and what to post. And please don't "Talk To Me" about spelling and grammar until you've finished the 7th grade or I'll be the "Kind of Woman" who will make you "Stand Back" and you'll never see "The Edge of 17." :p

Bravo and amen. :thumbsup:

LMAO!! :laugh:

LOL cute..

LMFAO!!!!! :laugh:

Serious Sass

Not as powerful a 'belt' as some others mentioned, but I love her "Whoa, you know it's been on my mind" in That's Alright!!! I'm partial to her big "whoa's"!

"Just like a white-winged dove, sings the song sounds like she's

"Whoaaaeaaaa, it's me that's talking to you" -- "How Still My Love" 10.02.83

"Whhhhhheye know" -- "Rhiannon" 9.19.82

that's one of my favorites too

She did a really good wail during GDW during a Sheryl Crow TV special a few years back. :nod: I can't remember the name of the show, but it was the only song Stevie did for it.

Blue Lamp. Especially the alt. version.

big whoas
 

I thought she had those removed several years ago
