Everyday
 
I read an earlier thread about some people not liking Everyday and especially the "I close my eyes it gives me hope" part. You know what? I was just watching the video and Stevie could have been singing her recipe for Fleetwood Mac Party Dip and it would have still sounded wonderful. Her delivery of that part is so honest and sincere, it still makes me weep. And the strings and lush arrangement. I'm sorry if y'all don't like it but I do. I just wanted to defend this sweet little song. :)

I hate the song. She sings it in her granny voice, so I think she sounds awful. And the lyrics are nothing special either. But that's just my opinion. :nod: :)

I agree wholeheartedly. It's the song that got me into her and it remains one of my very favorites. And the part you mentioned is my favorite. There is so much emotion in that song; I don't know how people don't see that. And that is one of my very favorite Stevie voices, too. She sounds very sexy in it.

And please don't think I'm being an ass, but I have to say that it's "Every Day," not "Everyday." "Everyday" means something different. I'm an English major so it's one of those things. ;)

The song is rather generic, but I do like the video. She looks very pretty in it.

I really do like it on the album, but I thought it totally flubbed live.

I agree. It's a very ordinary song but I still like it.

The lyrics are bland and I tend to not like songs where the singer is so needy, but I think it's a pretty tune. A little too Adult Contemporary for me, but with Stevie singing it I don't mind. And the video is beautiful!

I also loved her live performance of it on Rosie. I thought she sold it to the back row, esp. the end when she threw her arms up after the bridge and into the chorus.

I like the song.

I cant listen to it mostly because of the dronning vocal at the start of the song. That lower register just grates on me. Shoe does manage to recover though about midway thru the song and the strings are very nice.

I really liked it live though.

The video, Oh gawd what were they thinking? Doesnt match the sentiment of the song at all and the rats on the dinner table were rediculous.

Too bad cause she does look really good in the video.

I like the song... the lyrics are a little under Stevie's level...
The video is my one of my favorites... second only to 7W. :rolleyes:

The song had to grow on me. I can tolerate it more now than at first.
I agree that in the video she is absolutely gorgeous but still don't get the reference to all the weird images like the rats, people in the trees with masks on, etc... Kind of felt more like a "Eurythmics" video to me. What were they thinking when they made that video? I would expect more of a relationship type video showing a couple or something.

She does look great in that peach/pink dress in the video though.

:blob1: I LOVE THIS SONG! :blob2: and I LOVE this video!!! :]
I couldn't dissagree more about the live part It translated really well on stage,
The part right after she sings "it cures the silence......" got really quiet, and the crowd at both shows I heard went nuts.! LONG LIVE EVERYDAY!

Oh, okay! I didn't realize that's how you were thinking about it. I see.
