I came up with the idea to put "gldstwmn" on my license plate. I relate to the song in a lot of ways but after a while I decided that wasn't something I really wanted to hold on to so... I bought a new car and decided I wasn't that in love with vanity plates. Lo and behold, one day I'm over on the Nicks Fix and someone has "gldstwmn" on a license plate. So maybe I inspired them to put it on a license plate, who knows?
As for my favorite performances of the song, I like the alternate version that is on 25 Years The Chain box set. For live performances, I prefer the era where she yells "Pick it up!" If I remember correctly it would be Street Angel era. I also love when she ad libs "You don't want to see it." I specifically remember her doing this at the AHI benefit in 2000. I also find myself saying "Pick up the pieces and move on" when things don't go the way I or others expect them to in life. So thank you Stevie for that little bit of wisdom.
Now I have a question for you. You are so good with graphics, is that what you do for a living? If not, then you should. Cha ching!
