Planets of the Universe---"No Light"
Who, besides me, is totally digging this version on the Rumours re-issue? I find myself constantly humming it every day!!! I think it sounds very unique and different from Stevie's other stuff, the sound and flow is just amazing. It got me to thinking about Lindsey's comment in "Performing Songwriter" concerning what he loves most about Stevie's songwriting: "her sense of rhythm". I think this statement is proven in this song, the rhythm of the vocal is just amazing!!
Any thoughts?

I still think "Butter Cookie" is the best thing on there -- the best thing I've ever heard by Fleetwood Mac, in fact.

I love this version of Planets of the Universe too. I keep listening to it over and over again. I just has a different feel to it than some of Stevie's other songs.

It's pretty good, but I can see why they didn't use it for Rumours.

I like it, especially the do-do-do part at the end, but I prefer the demo with just her and the piano. That vocal is amazing.

I LOVE it! But I can totally see what Stevie meant when she said that FM could never really figure out what to do w/ it. I love the original demo and I also love the TISL version (thank you, John Shanks!). But, I ALSO love the remixes - I cranked up that CD on Saturday while I was vacuuming! LOL
I absolutely love this song, in any form. It's one of Stevie's best, lyrically, imo. Even the "mean" verse.

I'd rate the "extended album version" from the maxi-single, as the best version... then the original piano demo second, and the 'Rumours' bonus disc version third.
It's a brilliant song in any form, but I think the 'TISL' version approach was the absolute best.

I also have a demo with a synth playing. I cannot tell the era, but it sounds like RAL maybe. That version is pretty cool, but nowhere near the TISL one.

She could WHISTLE the dang song and I would love that version! LOL I just adore this song in ANY form. I started tearing up when listening to the Rumours bonus disk version. I'm a goober, sue me.
 I love listening to the Tracy Young remix....that sucker KICKS and I usually HATE and DESPISE remixes! 10 minutes of greatness!!

My faves are the Rumours version and the extended album version. The Rumours one is greatness. I'm in love with it. The piano demo? Not so much. For the most part, I don't like the piano demos.
