:rolleyes:

I just really detest what I've heard of that song. Adult Contemporary trash. And I personally don't think Dave and Stevie's voices blend AT ALL. I just hope this isn't a taste of what's to come with Stevie's new album... but with the addition of Annabel Lee, I'm guessing it is :distress:.

Agreed. I'm still holding hope though that it will be a typical Stevie album and that Dave's prints aren't all over it. If these two songs make the cut, then it's safe to say the rest of the album will have a similar feel unless they happen to be stand-alone tracks.

I was excited for a split second. This is not new. This is the demo that Dave S. leaked last March on Twitter right after he and Stevie first began writing songs together. I'm sure the final version recorded in the studio last summer will be much more polished, and if Dave's vocals are still prominent on the track, I bet they will be mixed in a way that is more pleasing. Ann Marie Calhoun adds a nice touch on violin. I suspect the new CD will feature strings on several tracks which is also one of Dave's trademark's.

The song has potential. I look forward to it's final form.

I'm lukewarm at best after the first listen.

Oh come on Louie! This is the new Sisters of the Moon! "And the people, they love her, but still they're the most cruel!" "Everybody loves you, but you're so alone" don't you see the similarities?!!?! I bet Stevie does! All this song needs is a jolt of cocaine and some whargarbl and possibly a wtf line such as "and the starts and the river and the moon and the WELLLLLLLLL I thought I told you that this the the edge of the world in a starstream snow dream, LILYYYYYY!!!!!!" and it might not suck some major boar tits!

Please post on the Ledge drunk more often. This is priceless.

I can't believe this was 9 months ago.....

Sorry
 

Im so sorry, i didnt know this was from 9 months ago, sorry for the confusion!

oh ok!!!!:laugh:

Wow, you people are mean.

I liked it. I think it has a nice alternative feel. I've always been a huge Eurythmics fan and Dave did some amazing things with Annie's voice. And I happen to like Annabell Lee a lot so I guess I'm in the minority here.

Can I ask you guys a question though. Here we are on a Stevie forum, and yes we are all encouraged to share our thoughts and feelings, both negative and positive, but how would you feel if Stevie read this board? Aside from the joking around, which I myself have been known to do, comments like saying her new album is gonna suck and the sample of this song is so terrible are really hurtful. I've noticed this on all kinds of message boards. I work for a video production company and when I've spent months working on a project and then I see comments on blogs where people cut it to shreds, often just from looking at a promo and not even the whole video, it really hurts my feelings. Sure, I take it with a grain of salt but it is still hurtful. And I'm shocked that people could be that mean to attack something someone else has put a lot of hard work into with such hate and venom.

Crap.......

According to Dave's interview in Music and Musicians Magazine, Dave and Stevie recorded the "Everybody Loves You" demo separately. I believe he recorded it first and then he sent it to her and she sent it back to him with her vocals added to it, so that's why it sounds so...bizarre.

So just because you like the demo snippet, your opinion is automatically correct? Stevie is 40 years into this. I doubt a few fans disliking a 40 second demo will crush her spirit.

I've seen this happen quite a lot in just the year I've been a member here. It is a discussion forum for a reason, I don't understand why people get so over sensitive over fellow fans discussing.

What is the difference between this, and saying that Oh Diane is an abomination? Or Silver Girl for that matter?

I'm not a Eurythmics fan, nor a Dave Stewart fan, I'm sorry that I don't like this demo thus far and have therefore crushed your spirit with my venom.

LEAVE STEVIE ALONE ;)




[replace britney with stevie]

I don't think it has an alternative feel at all. If it had I would have liked it. The music sounds flat and uninspired, the melody has potential but is sung so uninspired by the male voice that it just sucks every form of life out of it. Maybe the whole track will be better but I doubt this approach is changed in the rest of the track.

Will do :)

I really dislike it. Why sing a duet if you're not going to harmonize? Stevie's voice usually does blend beautifully with other singers. This is not something I would listen to. All that being said, I love Stevie and support her by buying her music and having her back when non-fans bash her.

Exactly. The snippit we are hearing is just the demo that they sent back and forth to each other before the recording process started. I seriously think that the version we will get on her new record will be a completely different version with more instrumentation and harmonies. And remember that HE wrote to the words to the chorus and she wrote the lyrics for the verses. We only heard the chorus. This song could end up being a great track. We'll see how it turns out.

Agreed! :thumbsup:

It sucks. And that's the same thing I said the first time I heard it (insert thumbs down here). No good reason, it just does.

Do I care if Stevie reads this board and sees that? Hell to the no. I've defended that woman till doomsday and complimented her so much her head would blow up. I'm not going to automatically like something just because Stevie's singing on it and/or wrote it.

If I don't like something I simply don't like it. In general I like what Stevie does but I gotta call a spade a spade in this case from what I've heard this song blows.

I'm also going to say what I've said before - if this is an indication of the entire album I'll be very dissapointed but I'm totally not going to jump to conclusions and judge it until I hear the album in it's entire and complete form.

Also from the tidbits I've heard so far, if I could have it my way she would not have worked with Dave Stewart. That being said I am very grateful that she's putting out new material and that someone implored her to do so and I'd rather have this than nothing but thus far I'm not feeling the music, the little tiny bit I've heard anyway.

I'm also in rare form tonight and may not feel this way tomorrow.

what have i done!

I have no idea what will happen with the demo, but there is no more logical reason to think that the final mix would be "completely different" from the demo than to think that the final mix would be identical in every way to the demo.

or maybe david, it was a first outtake you know that you could call it a outtake too!, so it really isn't different its just a first outtake. and maybe they mixed this outtake in with the final song!!

The track sample and their voices together very much sound like Ringo Starr and Stevie doing Nilsson's "Lay Down Your Arms".
It's uncanny.

I have an idea! Why don't we all just forget about the demo snippit, as well as the what ifs, the how comes, the maybes, and just wait for the freakin' album to come out before we all pass judgement on a song for which we've only heard 30 seconds of, in demo form? Sound like a plan?

Ehh, then what the Hell would we have to talk about? We haven't gotten any new songs from this woman in nearly 8 years now... 10 since her last solo outing. We've gotta discuss something... and somebody's always bound to get pissy regardless of what we discuss. **** Everybody! That's my motto for 2011, I think! :D

Rock on! **** everybody then! :P ;)

I suspect a lot of words will be eaten once the final product arrives - mark my words...

I will most happily eat my words, and fully hope that I'll have to! :nod: :wavey:

I guess what's hard for me to swallow is how someone can listen to this clip and feel inspired by what they're hearing. The lyrics are violently banal and cliche. Stevie's singing is okay... but not exactly what I'd consider inspired. On top of that, her and Dave's voices don't blend one iota.

For what it's worth, I think you can make a judgement on a song by it's demo (usually... there are exceptions). Just look at the demo for Space Needle, for instance. It's chilling, haunting, and utterly emotive. It's stunning in demo form... I can't imagine how great a studio production of that song might have been. Not Make Believe and Thrown Down were excellent demos, and definitely made strong finished tracks, too.

I've been spending a lot of time lately thinking back to the time leading up to Trouble In Shangri La lately. We had snippets leaked to us back then as well. But we absolutely knew by them, no question, that we were in for a treat with that album. The clips we've heard of Everybody Loves You and Cheaper Than Free just don't give me chills the way the TISL clips did. They don't excite me. They don't sound ethereal... they're very literal.

I just want everyone to know I'm not picking on Stevie simply to take cheap shots at her. I'm just worried that she's not on the right track. She's giving up writing her own songs in favor of co-writing with someone else. That really concerns me... makes me think back to Street Angel. I adore Stevie and her music. I feel hugely invested in her after following her for decades. I just want her to be at her personal best, because I still feel she's capable of incredible music. :nod:

You are part of the Rebel Alliance and a traitor, take him away!

Totally pointless post
