Fill in the blank: You can't be a true Stevie fan without ______
 

I mean this to be lighthearted and not self-righteous. (Please don't be offended if you don't know any of these; I mean them in fun.) Here are mine:

You can't be a true Stevie fan without -

- knowing which releases are solo and which are with the Mac.

- wanting to see her in boots.

- thinking her parents are adorable.

- liking at least one song on Street Angel at least a little bit.

- disliking the production on at least one song on Street angel at least a little bit.

- wishing she'd make eye contact with you in concert.

- wishing she felt up to dancing a lot more in concert. (Fix that hip so you can kick again and feel well!)

- knowing which one is Sharon and which one is Lori.

- knowing the name of at least one of her relatives, even though you do respect their privacy.

- thinking Phoenix is much cooler than it would be without her.

- liking Stevie's music with Lindsey. And Tom.

- knowing what Fritz is. And the blue lamp.

- knowing the names of at least three of her songs with Angel in the title. Not counting Angel.

- having a great deal of difficulty choosing your favorite three songs by her.

- feeling she was robbed of the Grammy at least once.

- knowing what the Stevie look and props consist of.

- having bought at least one of Edward W.'s books about her and thinking the writing is a huge disappointment.

- having listened specifically for one of her songs during a movie when you heard she was on the soundtrack.

- shuddering at the thought of how she could have been with at least one of her exes, though you'd still like to know some of her secrets when her book is finally released.

- having acknowledged long ago that her book ain't being released for a loooong time.

Any others?

- Jake

You can't be a true Stevie fan without...

- checking out the Stevie and Mac sections everytime you're in the music store, even though you know nothing new is out.

- defending her "goat-iness" to your friends, family, and acquaintances.

- knowing the roadie-and-coke rumour. *dead-silence* :laugh:

- owning more demos and boots than actual albums.

- owning her singles and 45s, even though you don't have a record player.

- logging onto the Nicks Fix at least once a day.

- sending in a Stevie Sighting to the Nicks Fix.

- knowing the story behind the Civil War video...and you don't agree with Stevie about her weight in it.

- searching VH1.com to see if she'll make any appearances anytime soon.

- knowing all about her next album before she even schedules studio time.

- referring to Sheryl as Stevie's "wife."

- mispronouncing a word and immediately thinking about the Mirage version of SOTM.

- bitching and comlaining about the live show setlist because you've heard it so many times on a boot.

- wondering what kind of a child that Stevie and Prince would've created.

- having every clip that is shown in the Sometime's It's a Bitch video already on tape.

- having a favorite Stevie photo and knowing exactly where it is online.

- searching for a Stevie mention in every mag you subscribe to before reading anything.

I'll think of more later! :D

I love all of these, but this one hit home. I was a stutterer growing up, and it still happens on occasion. Yesterday while teaching a lesson I stumbled on the word flooding and the word farting came out. Actually I said farding, but try convincing a room full of kids that.
Hey, at least they were listening.
Anyway, I take consolation from the fact that Stevie enthralls millions and makes millions when much of the time people can't understand her.

- Jake

OMG, you guys are so funny.
Farding. Heh heh.

I say you can't be a true Stevie fan without being able to guess within a year or two of when a song was recorded by the sound of her voice.

-Sonia

lol lol! I must be as sick as you! I do that all the time!!!

These are so great...I love 'em!!

Here's another one

You can't be a true Stevie fan without staying in a store that's playing Rhiannon until the song is over even though you have it at home on like 5 different CD's and you've heard it 1000 times.

These are great! I do all of these things. Anyway, here's another one.

You know you are a true Stevie fan when you can tell by her hairdo when the picture/video was taken.

You can't be a true Stevie fan without -

- cringing whenever anyone tries to cover one of her songs. (Give it up, Young Turk!)

- knowing what her signature looks like.

- being able to picture from memory the title logos of every one of her albums.

- beaming with pride the first time you heard her nail the live vocal recording of At Last.

- being able to cite multiple examples of her contradicting herself in interviews on the same topics.

- having purchased at least one piece of writing just because you read it had inspired her to write a song. (Mabinogi, Rappaccini's Daughter, Annabel Lee, Triad, etc.)

- having a favorite live version of Rhiannon.

- thinking that the anti-drug campaign should drop the fried eggs campaign, and do "This is your nose. This is your nose on drugs." Think belt.

- Noticing immediately when Stevie changes (or misses) lyrics in live performances.

- Jake

You know you are a true Stevie fan when...

You know the names of her dogs.

You count how many times she twirls during Stand Back.

You know the difference between the Stand Back cape and the Gold Dust Woman one.

You miss it when she doesn't do the "do, do, do's" in Gypsy.

You will actually listen to a Kenny Loggins song just to hear her sing. :laugh:

These are great!

I do admit going to the N section and F section in record always hoping for something new LOL.

I do have all the 45's and never owned a record player.

I have like 65 videos and most of them have the same footage but that one tiny new clip makes the video worthwhile.

Street Angel starts out GREAT, wonderful and ends horribly! LOL

I wear a moon necklace.

I cant look at black lace without thinking " thats so Stevie"...

LOL, we are all hooked!

A customized Stevie blow up doll. Life size cardboard cut outs of Stevie in every room. I know all of you have these, but I’ll bet you don’t talk to them as much as I do? I have a wish list that includes wanting to lick her eyeballs too. Now that’s a true fan. I need to get back to searching for my blow up doll now. I got kinky, and was nibbling on her butt. She cut a huge fart, and flew out the window. I’ll bet she’s mad at me again.:rolleyes: ........Mark

Normally, I would chastise you for saying something like that...but I can't because I found it so goddam funny!

*wipes spit off of monitor*

Go lick an eyeball! :laugh:

Whenever you here things, you think of a Stevie song

Examples : Think About It..ect.

When you're in the record store looking for the "N" and "F"...either you put your favorite album in the front of the stack...or strategically place it on one of the BESTSELLER RACKS...or something lol

Chris

LMAO!!!
 

I do all of these things! Especially the putting an album on the best sellers rack:laugh: The people that stock the store must hate me lol.

Some more:
You can't be a true Stevie fan without ______

Wishing you could dress like her all the time. Even if you're a guy.
Thinking the thought of Stevie and Mick together was gross.
Wondering who could do a good cover of one of her songs.
Wondering what songs Stevie could cover well.
Wishing she'd do some more obscure songs on tour.
Trying to convert as many fans as possible!

That's all I can think of now. My brain is fried!
