Please take these songs down a WHOLE STEP! (musical post)
Hi all, my first post on the thread and am excited to be part of this Fleetwood Mac community. I am a young Fleetwood Mac fan here.
One thing that has been getting to me recently is that why Stevie, in particular, doesn't take some of her songs down a whole step or even a half step!
Her voice has gotten particularly worn in the past two years--most definitely from singing SO MANY GIGS at her age-- and it would benefit her to take songs like Gypsy or Sara or Dreams or Edge of Seventeen (I know it's a solo song, but it still bears mentioning) down a whole step.
But instead of lowering the key, she sings the harmonies, which I understand is more of her thing. It is just a little frustrating when in Gold Dust Woman, people like me want to hear her belt "Go HOOOOOOOME" and in stead of getting the high A, we get the F, E, D minor walk-down instead.
Thoughts from other musical people???
Don't get me wrong, I am and will always be at Stevie's shows, no matter what the hell she does.
