Sometimes I know my friends think I am cracked, because Stevie doesn't really seem to fit into their musical schemes...but I have never cared. When Stevie says she hopes her music can take people away for a little bit...well, it has! When I'm by myself its virtually all I listen to. If I'm sad there are songs that touch me...if I'm angry there are songs that touch me. I'm not a fan that ever wanted to really be like Stevie -or try and write mystical poetry- or to paint misty scenes with maidens. But in some small way I think we are all similar...we like the mysterious, the ambiguous. And we all like to be taken away, at least for a little while. Who else can do that as well as Stevie can? No one.
