"You Won't Forget Me" 1975

Yes, I got into this song very late. WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!

What an incredible rocker from Stevie!!! There was that 26 year old girl belting out those angry lyrics, right after she had joined FM, but before she was a superstar. Just a pissed-off girlfriend ~ love it!!!

Although I love "All the Beautiful Worlds" (which incorporates the chorus), "You Won't Forget Me" stands on its own as a very strong example of Stevie's songwriting.

If only this song could have survived in some way, like if FM had decided to perform it in the 1975-1976 tours, making it a concert classic. "Rhiannon" made her the Rock Goddess, and "You Won't Forget Me" could have solidified it early on. "Gold Dust Woman" and "Sisters of The Moon", while rock songs, definitely were the of the more haunting, slower type. The early live versions of "Silver Springs" come closer to achieving what Stevie had already accomplished with "You Won't Forget Me".

What a lost classic...

i Que lastima!

I just discovered this song a few weeks ago myself and agree it could have been a killer concert staple if given the chance.

I've been listening to the BN shows from Birmingham and Tuscaloosa quite a bit since I downloaded them from BN.net...what great shows and the quality is remarkable considering they are from 1975. And I love the live version of IDWK.

mikebise 03-19-2010 09:38 AM

How do you download those shows from BN,net? I could only listen to them. (I downloaded "You Won't Forget Me" from... another site).

Am I doing something wrong? I just had PLAY available on my iMac.

That "I Don't Want To Know" is KILLER!!!!!!

On my computer (a Dell PC), you right-click the mouse and several options come up. I click 'Save Target as' and choose what folder to put it in and then it asks if I want to run or save the file.

Thanks for the song, Mike, both versions. Cool to hear her all young and wild.

mikebise 03-20-2010 08:05 AM

What I love is that it's Stevie-written and so fierce! Another glimpse into her early writing and performing.

Holiday, that doesn't work for Mac. Maybe someone will post those songs?

Mike, I had a little difficulty at first on my Mac, but this worked for me...
  • Right click on song title.
  • Download File As
  • Save
  • Separate Download box opens, then double click song title in download box

pwyll 03-21-2010 02:47 AM

I always knew this song as "Telephone"

Thanks for the help, but it doesn't work for me. I have an Apple mouse, and all right clicking does is play the song.

I appreciate your help though. Thank you.

mikebise 03-21-2010 04:30 PM

BTW, "Take Advantage Of Me" (which I easily DLed through a different site) is a fantastic performance by Stevie!!!!!

Javier wrote it, huh? It SO sounds like a Stevie song! Great different kind of song, yet she makes it her own.

(Wish I had "Farewell Failure")...

I haven't heard that one; it's the first time I've heard that title! Where can I download it?? Thanks for your help.

Me too, which is a better title.

mikebise 03-21-2010 07:03 PM

"Take Advantage Of Me", presumably written by Javier Pacheco, performed by Fritz, lead vocals by Stevie!!!

http://www.mediafire.com/?tim2wolic4y

"Farewell Failure" is a live BuckinghamNicks song from January 1975, available on buckinghamnicks.net, except I can't figure out how to download it with my Mac.

Can you repost the song? The link has expired. Please?:o I can give you 'Farewell Failure.

That's odd, I have an Apple mouse also, yet when I right click, it brings up the option to "Download Linked File"

It's been quite awhile since I've uploaded anything, but I'm sure I can figure it out. I should be able to get those two BN concerts up for you on Wednesday evening.

And I tried those BN.net links again. Maybe I have a bad mouse. :(

Haven't heard this one. Will dl tonight and share my thoughts. The first thing that came to mind when I saw this post was How Still My Love "You don't forget me" (obviously a word off but still the same idea).

mikebise 03-22-2010 04:27 PM

Thanks, HR!!!

The chorus of "You Won't Forget Me" are lyrics Stevie recycles in "All The Beautiful Worlds".

mikebise 03-22-2010 05:47 PM

Sounds great!

Anyone heard of Stevie singing a song called "Deep Dense" A/K/A "Funny Kind of Love"? She supposedly wrote this one back then, too.

Thanks for the new link! Much graditude. Hope your mouse is getting better!

mikebise 03-22-2010 06:34 PM

No, it's still not "right-clicking" these songs into downloading... Maybe someone will post "Long Distance Winner", "I Don't Want To Know" and some of Stevie's other live songs from those 2 shows?

BTW, during "Farewell Failure", I started hearing "Sweet Girl". Maybe the forceful way Stevie was singing it, but it definitely reminded me of the sound of "Sweet Girl".

At work today, I was hopping around with Stevie singing "Take Advantage Of Me" all day... so fun to hear!

Thanks again, HR!

Introducing "Long Distance Winner", Stevie says, "This is for all of the gypsies out there..." Nice little flashforward to 1983, when Stevie would use a similar intro for "Gypsy" on some shows on The Wild Heart tour.

I also love the end, where Stevie adds:

"I tried to win, and I lost again!"

mikebise 03-28-2010 08:22 AM

I posted this on the Demo/Live Request thread, but thought maybe someone would see it here:

OH!!!!!!!!!

I was just listening to the BEST "Rhiannon"!!!!!!

It's labeled "Rhiannon ~ Rehearsal 1975", and CMcV introduces the song and Stevie, and it's PERFECT!!!!!

However... During the guitar solo before Stevie starts the "Dreams unwind..." part, the guitar solo keeps looping over and over, like a stuck record! The song never returns to Stevie before it ends!!!!!

This isn't the 1975 King Biscuit Flour Hour/Rock Hoppers Live 1975 version (which JMcV introduces), but a totally different (BETTER! IMO) "Rhiannon".

Does anyone have this????????

Where were you listening?! Oh gosh I need to hear this! If it's YouTube, I know how to rip the audio.

mikebise 03-28-2010 09:30 AM

No, someone sent me a (very) flawed CD a few months ago of Live Stevie songs. There were also her songs from St. Louis 1979, but I could not get them to play.

This "Rhiannon" is SO much better than the King Biscuit live version! There's some audience noise before CMcV introduces the new song called "Rhiannon" by Stevie Nicks. It's perfect stereo sound, not an audience bootleg. Just incredible!!!

But it's fkeucd up during the guitar solo, repeating itself, and ends before Stevie's "Dreams unwind" even starts. Some technical glitch in the CD transfering, I guess.

SO frustrating to have this RARE Live EARLY "Rhiannon" and only 5/8ths complete ~ and no Screaming Stevie!!!!! :)

?? Sounds as if you were describing the Trod Nossel Studios RHIANNON, although there are plenty of copies of that around with no skip forward.

mikebise 03-28-2010 10:10 AM

Can you please direct me to a link so I may download this amazing version?

How does it compare with "Rhiannon" from the Rosebud documentary? That seems to be the DEFINITIVE performance of the song. I've never found another performance as powerful and spontaneous as that. Has a stereo recording ever circulated from the Rosebud performance?

mikebise 04-02-2010 09:47 AM

Someone posted a link to the one I was asking about on the Demos/Live Requests thread.

did it sound like this? I was just listening to it and noticed the one you were describing had a similar intro to this one, and the quality is amazing! don't ask me where it's from cause i have no idea - it's just this random Rhiannon i obtained.

Yeah, I found it!! LOL I spent quite alot of time this morning downloading there!

This "Rhiannon" is pretty good - but I still think the Rosebud version is THE definitive performance of this song. The Midnight Special was close and she looks gorgeous, but once again - it isn't as spontaneous. The whole "dreams unwind..." (which is the BEST part ;-) ) seems almost rehearsed, or that she's trying to recapture the spontaneousness (is that a word?!) of Rosebud. The lyrics don't make much sense, yet do during Rosebud. She just seems to become "possessed" and really "lost in the song" during Rosebud.

Greetings mikebise,

Sorry if this is old news to you by now, but tonight I was trying to download from BN.net and came across the same problem that you had - I couldn't right-click with my iMac mouse, either. I figured it out, though - you need to hold the ctrl key down with one finger then click your mouse. The download option will pop up.

And I agree - the live version of "I Don't Want To Know" is KILLER!!!!!!!

Hope this helps for future downloads!

Melissa

mikebise 05-28-2010 06:05 AM

Melissa, thank you! This iMac user and Stevie Fan greatly appreciates your help!
