Sounds great! And it's very much reminiscent of her live versions.

The Uncut magazine critic called this a ballad:shrug:

I knew this would happen. All I can think about is the absence of Lindsey's voice, lol. I enjoy it well enough, though. More than the demo, at any rate. A great song whatever packaging it's given.

This is, thus far, the BEST track on "24 Karat Gold". Yes, the one that's already had two other recorded official releases AND an appearance in a tour set. Oh well!!! It's just a damn good song !!!! This version blows all others away !!!! Holy s**t is right !!!

I've always liked this song. I think it represents one of the best narrative lyric Stevie has written. Maybe it is because we know exactly the story that it was written about. It fuses both the mystical and spiritual which are both common themes in her song but not usually intertwined. It does seem like this song resonates with Stevie on some level...why else would we have three versions of this song? I have to say that I am happy to have Twisted redone than Gold & Braid which is what I thought we were getting when she eluded to a song played in concert that was never released (I guess she meant on a solo album).

I absolutely love this version. It's simply beautiful. Though I have always liked the duet version, this newest take carries much more emotional weight. Her vocal, soft yet forceful, is perfect, and the music just propels it all forward to a dynamic conclusion. Just great!

I'm sorry, everyone seems to love it, but I just disagree. I love the lyrics to Twisted, but what really gives it power to me is the duet between Stevie and Lindsey. It's them coming together after years of having nothing to do with one another. I don't see how this is different enough from the version on Enchanted to merit it's inclusion on this album. In fact, I think I prefer the Enchanted version - the instrumentation is far superior - to me this sounds way too muddy.

Definitely resonates.

When I was asked to do a song for the movie “TWISTER,” I had my friend Rebecca read the script. She then gave me the ‘Reader’s Digest’ condensed version so I could decided whether to do it or not. As she explained it to me, I realized this really was… MY… story. It was about people who had extreme jobs… like chasing tornadoes, or being in a rock band. Anyway… I really hand-crafted this song for the movie. Unfortunately, if you saw the movie, you missed the song… and you certainly missed my message. So I decided to give you the original demo, recorded March 10, 1966 on a 4-track Tascam by my assistant extraordinaire, Karen Johnston. I was living in a beach house overlooking Sunset Boulevard and the Pacific Coast Highway, and beyond that, always… the ocean. When I decided to put this in the ‘box set’, I called Jesse V. (just last week), and he put some ‘vibe’ mandolin on it.
I love this song.
I hope this time… you will understand it.

I don't care for it. :shrug:

It's probably my least favorite version of the song, so I really don't see what the point of doing it yet again was.

Oh, I would've much rather she'd redone Gold & Braid. I don't care for this at all.
