Favorite Tango DVD song
Well the tour was not a Rumours lineup so I think this is the right forum. What song from the Tango in the Night Live DVD is your favorite? There are 13 songs, so it wouldn't fair to post a poll with just 10 options:
1 The Chain 2 Everywhere 3 Dreams 4 Seven Wonders 5 Isn't It Midnight 6 World Turning 7 Little Lies 8 Oh Well 9 Gold Dust Woman 10 Another Woman 11 Stand Back 12 Songbird 13 Don't Stop https://is2-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/t.../640x480mv.jpg |
Another Woman
Here's the YouTube link to the video (includes song-by-song timestamps): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E3klWVak8dA
I went with "Another Woman." A great version of a song that turns up on no other live release. Honorable mention to "Isn't It Midnight" for showcasing how Stevie could have contributed to the studio version. |
“Isn’t It Midnight” hands down…

Isn't It Midnight

Stand Back and I Loved Another Woman
Contrary to other opinions.... I really don't like this Isn't It Midnight... Something about the percussion I don't like. |
As much as I liked the live concert, the lip syncing concert video is not my taste. I hate all the Stevie close ups in Dreams and GDW. I think the Chain is a lame version and someone correct me if I am wrong but both Rick and Billy take Lindsey's vocal which sounds cheezy IMHO. I love Isn't it Midnight but the close ups of Stevie ruin it for me.
I vote Everywhere. Its a live cut of the song being played during rehearsal. We get to see Stevie smoking one of her long Kool 100 cigarettes and her with little make up, hair fried and her jean skirt? But her coming in late and her "I wanna be with you" is so vintage Stevie how could you not like it :lol: Seriously, if this was the actual video, Everywhere would have been a big hit on MTV and possibly a big top 10 hit. BTW, the editing compared to Red Rocks is only slightly better. In Red Rocks Stevie has different hair but they keep the camera for live shots far from her. The close up singing was reshot. With Tango, we get those fuzzy, cloudy edits with showing the crowd with some haze of the band on stage. Red Rocks is so bad its good. Tango is just bad. I like Songbird with showing live clips because at least its not lip synced :eek: My least favorite moment on this Tango video is GDW; Stevie with her Debbie Gibson hat, big earrings, and the constant close ups and Stevie's constant "oh yeah's" Pick your path and I'll pray OH YEAH. Watch your sunrise love to go down OH YEAH. NOT AGAIN BABE |
^^^ I did love that Everywhere. I thought it was cool in 1987/1988. :rolleyes:

Chris chasing the camera guy with the hair dryer is pretty cool too. |
I haven't watched in years because it's such a poorly produced "live" show even without the numerous Stevie closeups. I think I Loved Another Woman was the least overproduced of all the songs so it almost wins by default for that. Rick's performance is pretty great though.

The reason Little Lies was the biggest hit and is the only top 10 single you still hear from the album is because it has life (sorry Steve, not because Lindsey left). Its not stuck in the programmed 80s sound. Thank goodness Little Lies did not take the same approach as Everywhere. It would not have had the same success. Long story short, Tango has good bones and some good songs and had tremendous potential but the big 80s synth pop controlled far too much of this album. Stevie contributed all "current" and freshly written songs for Tango. Someone should have stood up and told her the songs were crap and asked her to dig out an older song like Smile At You or something. |
I don't really care for Tango OR BTM. White through Mirage live in my heart, always. The ONLY other FM album that does, is BuckVie.
If I were spending the rest of my life on a desert island, those 6 albums would go with me. The rest are just filler. I'll mail you my copies of SYW, BTM, Tango, and Time. :lol: |
