To You, What Makes Stevie, Stevie?
 
So, what thing about Stevie is your favorite? What is it that distinguishes her from anybody in music?

For me, first of all, I am absolutely in love with her style. Nobody does it like her. She is so classic and timeless, she will never change.

Also, her voice is so incredibly powerful and unique. Nobody has one like her.

Bottom line, I love the woman. I'm a total chiffonhead to the max. Go, take me to court for it.:p

Anyway, what is it about her for you that makes her so special?????

Music and Melodies,
Ethan

I totally know it. OH MAN, just thought about it, I completely forgot to mention her lyrics, although for me that kind of fits in with her style....

Her lyrics are just perfect. I try to write some that sound like hers, but you can;t duplicate perfection......... I just love the woman, as I have said many, many times before.:p :] :xoxo:

re:what makes Stevie Stevie?
 
In my opinion it's her ability to be haunted and haunt even herself to the point where her songs reflect who she really is, what she truly feels and it just leaves her and the listener totally haunted. She's just THAT powerful. I feel so haunted saying this! I think I have the chills.[/B]

The use of three or more harmonizers in the live mix to make up for the lack of her voice since 1977. The digital wonders of the mankind!

HEY! That's not fair!!!!:mad: :mad: :mad: It was more like 1983!:lol:

SortaSavageLike 01-03-2007 09:53 AM

Her parents.

Also, the fact that her fans don't walk with giants sticks up their asses all day long.

TheWILDheart 01-03-2007 10:03 AM

This is not an easy question to answer. Indeed Stevie has THE voice and amazing lyrics but her whole persona is what makes her. Her presence is so amazing and her ability to fill the room with her voice is just outstanding...and lest we forget the chiffon, the boots, the tambo, the twirls, the gold and braid dance, the welsh witch...OMG EVERYTHING about her... *is overwelmed with thoughts of too much fabulousness*


Damn, I'm such a chiffon-head :D

xdreamsunwindx 01-03-2007 10:13 AM

I think that her whole ~essence~ (no, I'm not talking about the pot) and look makes her ~Stevie~.

I'm dead serious. I have like 500 handkercheif skirts (not because of her, but because I like the whole "botique hippie" thing), and when I wear my platform granny/combat boots (I like to be tall and kick ass), people are all "oh that's very Stevie Nicks." If you look in fashion magazines, when they show the whole chiffon & lace looks (which are coming back), there's almost always a Stevie Nicks or "gypsy" comment. If she dressed in like.. jeans and a t-shirt, I don't think she'd give off that vibe, you know?

Wow, this might be the windiest post ever.

For me, its the depth of her creativity. I can listen to her songs knowing that there was alot of thought put into them.:)

Word. I could do without the rest of Stevie, if only her boobs would show up on stage and do their thing. Do they have boobshawls? That'd be hot. Oh, and little boobtambourines. And boobboots.

Still. At least you manage to keep your posts under 5000 words when you drink. Quite the accomplishment from my P.O.V. :laugh:
If no one had said anything, I wouldn't have known you were drinking. :angel:

Yes, even having some neighbours... :D

By the way, what makes her unique for me it's mainly her songwriting, how she can use mysticism and an oneiric style to communicate a deep realism. And then her voice so true, so brushed by life, so capable to get to people's souls.

Or from any singer in the history of recorded sound for that matter?

Besides, realtime digital harmonizers didn't exist in the '70s (unless there's some truth to those theories of Ian Curtis' voice having been lowered by one). Since the early '80s they've been used in live concerts, and not just for voices but for instruments too. You probably didn't realize that I was exaggerating, chappo. ;)
