Stevie's writing was ABSOLUTELY the greatest during the "Tusk" era......
 
"Oh, dreaming...
And the wind became... crazy
And he reached her gently......

Dreaming and the wind became... crazy
Well, there's a heartbeat...
And it never really died

Dreaming... never really died...
Would you swallow all your pride???
Could you speak a little louder....??
Dreaming...

All I ever wanted...
Was to know that you were dreaming!!!!!!!
But there's a heartbeat and it never really died...
Never really died...
No, it never really died.....
Never really died....
Could you speak a little louder?????

Swallow all your pride!!!!!
But you never change...
Never change!!!!!

And the wind it became, it became....
CRRAAAAAZZZYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!

Will Stevie ever eclipse this masterpiece????? And will we ever see it live again??? If only this version.....

(Thanks to the magnificiant SaraRhiannon for complete verification of the extended lyrics! :wavey: )

Oh, Stevie....... you were SUCH a goddess..... You still are today, but I miss that chick from the "Tusk" pictures- especially while you were sitting at the piano and pouring your soul out for your muse......

Tower, what an emotional post! :)
I totally agree with you, though. TUSK was Stevie's high point, IMO.

Totally agree. Storms. 'nuff said!:cool:

I think her vocal ability was at its peak during this era too.

Absolutely! Sara, Beautiful Child, Storms, Sister of the Moon! These songs never get old for me!

Spot on!!!
 
I will NEVER forget the first time I heard the extended version of Sara....it gave me goose bumps, shivers, tears in my eyes and a melancholy smile on my face all in one!!!

NO ONE else ever does that to me like Tusk era Stevie can.

Love and happiness from Sarah

Tusk...
 
The time before Tusk and during the year or whatever it was they were recording, was kinda turmoltulous, the Mick thing, the break up with Lindsey, they say drama makes for good drama and that all leads to good poetry and writing.

I love this part of this version of Sara as well. She even kind of goes into this part on the album cut at the end.

Also, in the very end on the version you quote, Stevie seems to be saying something like:

"and in that carzy wind you will see (or possibly make) me smile"

Perhaps I am hearing things, but I think she says this or something like it. Help!!!
