bill doing sisters of the moon.


i like it better than any version of FMs :shocked: well, maybe it's a tie between that and the mirage-speaking-in-tongues one. but it's damn close.

I vote Bill's version of Without You. Oh yeah.

Speaking of... a few days ago at work I heard a cover version of Stand Back. It was on commercial Top 40 radio, but I couldn't place it at all. Am I that out of the loop that I missed a cover of Stand Back doing the rounds? :shrug:

Mishypoo, pishypoo!! :wavey:
I've never heard Bill's Sisters of the Moon but would like to. Did he post a video? Good ol' Bill. He's a great singer -- he's better than Stevie, currently. The rhythm section should bring Bill in to the band & get rid of Mae West. Imagine how cool it would be to hear Sisters of the Moon, Angel, Gold & Braid, etc., again!

Imagine the joy of hearing Bill & Eliza (ragandbone) duet on Crystal or something.

But Bill needs to get out from under that swordfish mounted on the wall. One of these days, it's going to plummet to the stage floor & either hit someone in the band or create such a clang.

i totally agree. I played SOTM for a friend of mine (who is a stevie fan) and she said he sounds like a male stevie. if bill replaced stevie,i would still SO go see the mac.

I get to hear him play angel in 2 weeks :] but no SOTM :( I'll have to find out about G&B.

wow. that would be absolutely stunning. or insider. ****. i just peed a little in my pants with anticipation.

i'll get him over here to post it, or i will :) (unless he disapproves...)

Bill's version of The Tower (Goodbye Baby) is one of the most played songs on my Ipod. I always had a difficult time pretending to be Stevie while singing to her songs. Now I just pretend I'm Bill. That ones more believable. :lol:

I don't like anyone singing Stevie's songs, however, I like Laura Branigan's recording of Cry Wolf.

I haven't heard that many cover versions, but am I allowed say Rod Stewart's version of Stand Back?
Or will that lead to lynching? :angel:

This is excellent. I guess I missed this the first time around ... ?

Bill's band is good, too, but they seem not to have much enthusiasm for the Stevie Nicks material because they play it sort of carelessly, probably not doing their homework on the song's structure.

Wow, you guys choke me up - thanks a lot. really.

And I would be thrilled to sing with Eliza.
I have recently lost contact with her but will seek her out again to see what's up.

and alas, i believe the bar with the big fish is in it's last throes.:mad:
God I loved that place.

You didn't miss this the first time David because I never posted it before. Just gave it to Michelle. :wavey:
In their defense (the band) this recording is the one and only time that we played this song in front of folks. We only got to practice it twice and both times were great. Then when we did it live, well, there was some descrepancy as to when to change between the two musical parts of the song.
I can remember singing it and being pissed that they got lost and I think I can hear the anger in my voice actually - lol

Well, I tucked this away in my pile of **** no one would ever hear until one day I sent a copy to ole Mishy Poo (Michelle) and she just loved the performance and didn't seem to mind the band's wandering around. i listenened to it again at that point and I gained a different appreciation for it.

Since then, Michelle has been my greatest musical advocate and I am working on a plan to make her my personal publicist. And I am lucky enough to get to perform for her Live and In Person in a couple short weeks.

Thanks again you guys.

If anyone is interested, I have some stevie/mac stuff on youtube (Angel, Dreams, Leather and Lace, Why, without you, Insider, gold and braid and goodbye baby) here:

http://youtube.com/results?search_qu...b&search_type=

there is some other non-mac stuff tunes up there as well mixed in with videos of our animals.

If anyone lives in Portland, we have a couple mac/stevie tributes set up for end of may and mid june. Hit me up for details.
