The song Stevie and Lindsey were fighting about on "All Access"....
 

From what Stevie was wearing, it appears to me Lindsey made a critisism on "Illume". If you go back and look at the footage on the 'Very Best of', Stevie is wearing the EXACT SAME OUTFIT as in the All Access........BUT She could have also worn the same outfit on many ocassion.....Anyone else have any thoughts?

I kinda don't think so. Lindsey actually listed "Illume" as a favorite of Stevie's in a recent interview....

In the Uncut article earlier this Spring, she said that everyone really liked her "Phoenix Four" songs, which includes Silver Girl, Illume, Say You Will and Destiny Rules.

Without more explanation, it's hard to know what some of those things in All Access were really about. It's possible that that argument captured on camera wasn't even about some of the songs on this album. They could have been sitting around discussing something from the past. Just a thought.

And Stevie has also said that Lindsey was very complimentary toward her, where "Illume" is concerned, and that she was so touched that he felt that strongly about it.

My money is still on "Silver Girl," as I can imagine Lindsey being less than enthusiastic about the extremely fey quality of that one, when the rest of album is rather straight-forward.

Very true, Les... and that's definitely a strong possibility.

It could have been one of those, "oh, remember the fights we had about ______? And I just knew that of course Lindsey wasn't going to like it, because I wrote it!" type conversations.

I also thought that she was talking about Silver Girl when I first heard that part. But Les made a good point, in that with editing and putting parts here and there, it could have been from long ago.

i thought -- momentarily -- that they could have been discussing the Dixie Chick's version on "landslide" ... since LB has mentioned that it was not his cup of tea.

I guess that does make since. But I don't think Lindsey would even think to hate Landslide because she wrote it. Landslide is like...their song. Heh.

It might be plausible that they were talking about a past song IF Stevie hadn't mentioned "Well then think of something else!" It seems that that line had to have been working with an ongoing conversation about what to do about a song they were working on. MY money still goes on one of the songs about or potentially about Lindsey, such as Everybody Finds Out or even Smile at You. That seems like the most logical reason he wouldn't like a song and that Stevie KNEW he wouldn't like it because she wrote it. Or it could be a song they didn't even do. But I also think if they were talking about a past song and a past argument of a song, they really wouldn't be so heated about it. But we'll never know until it is clarified BY the members themselves. :shrug:

Their voices during that part is really funny....they're both such emotional people but we rarely hear their exchanges in conversation...it's usually via their songs. Stevie sounds genuinely (very!) upset, her voice sounds almost like a teenager complaining to her boyfriend, as opposed to a 50+ year old woman! The way Lindsey answered was funny too....you can clearly hear the frustration in his voice..."It's not because you wrote it...".....lol!....can you imagine how many 1000s of times conversations like this must have happened between them over the past 30 years....! This is gonna be a great documentary.:nod:

:wavey: :wavey: :wavey:

It also could have been "Not Make Believe" since that didn't make the album, and they didn't consider it good enough to keep behind and save for a future album.

Nooooo....:(

lol:laugh: I can't believe either of them were disappointed with NMB - I'm sure that it was a very difficult decision to have to relegate it to the LE bonus disk - and even then I think that says they thought it was good, rather than not. Lindsey's production on that seems to suggest he really dug it. (But what do I know..)

My initial thought was Thrown Down seeing as it caused some problems ... one way or the other it got completely overhauled. The "Well think of something else" made me assume it was TD.

But Silver Girl does seem to be the likely choice ... (I know it got me aggravated ;) )
"It just has that feel about it.." as Lindsey said.

LOL! Glad to see I was not the only one! Yes that song gets me everytime I hear it..right now I test myself on how fast I can get to the CD player to push skip.. :D

I'd love to see some enterprising fan remix "Silver Girl," like someone did with "Candlebright," and "I Miss You"... I think the song would have been lightyears better if it had been arranged in an upbeat & funky way.

It's tough for me to hate the song, because I like the lyrics, and Stevie's voice on it... but arranged as a mid-tempo ballad, it comes across as a totally "blah" song.

Ah well. :)

It could be a song that didn't make the cut...

To me, it didn't really sound like a "heated" argument, but more of a brother/sister kind of argument where you raise your voice to each other but you're really not all that mad. One of those arguments that you have with someone you know really well where you're yellling one minute and laughing the next. Just a thought.
