no problem, you are completely entitled to your opinion of this song and of the many other Stevie tunes which you do not like. It does not speak to you whereas the stuff Bruce recorded, did speak to you. and that's alright...
That's why, thank goodness, we have many many different types artists and art in the world to help us interpret, escape from and/or deal with the reality and fantasy of our lives.
Stevie poetry/lyrics and her stripped down music on the many demos has always spoken to me. from her corniest hokey lyrics of Jane and Ghosts to the lyrical perfection of Sara and Landslide...from her halting piano of her Rhiannons to her acoustic guitar on Twisted. please don't get me wrong, I like the produced and finished products as well but I also enjoy Stevie's musical talents as limited as they may be.
and Illume did touch and please me as well. And as a long time fan,. Stevie had a big order from me to live up my expectations prior to my first hearing of Illume.
and it is so odd, but at that dinner I referred to in my previous post, my hubby actually found out from our Italian friends that a girl he had casually dated in college died in the towers..."just remember when I'm haunted"
