I think the reason some people feel it would be in poor taste is a landslide is a destructive force of nature.

During a landslide homes slide down just as peoples homes slid into the Gulf. The visual imagery would be too painful.

No it wasn't a landslide in NO, but still it would rub a lot of people the wrong way. Twister and Storms would also be inapproprate. But most fans know it is unlikely that she would perform either of those two, but Landslide has a good possibilty.

America is watching this one---not just SN fans.

Besides, how do you have a landslide with "snow covered hills", that's an avalanche (you can thank Paula's husband for pointing that out )

Yup - another vote for Has Anyone Ever Written Anything For You.

I really, really hope she doesn't do Landslide. Don't care if it is about snow covered hills, or mud consuming life (as in a real landslide) - wouldn't be appropriate.

So, HAEWAFY... or a cover not yet mentioned here.

Ok after seeing the first few acts in this benefit there is no way she's doing Stand Back. They are all doing slow, emotional songs. She'll do something touching. Stand Back is not touching. Looks like HAEWAFY is the best choice at this point.

Since I don't have a crystal ball, I don't know what she will sing, but I know what I think would be kewl for her to sing and that is Touched By An Angel.

Default glad someone said it...

I think Illume would be GREAT and appropriate. A chance for something new from her (to the public) and basically what she wrote the song for...surviving a great tragedy. Even the mood of the song would be appropriate.

That's my vote as unlikely as it is.

My initial reaction was, she can't do Illume. It was written about New York City and Sept. 11th. But, actually, the words really would be quite relevant. All the stuff about coastal cities and rivers... I guess the question would be whether Stevie would be comfortable taking a song so clearly written for Sept. 11th and singing it in response to another tragedy. Know what I mean? I tihnk it would work perfectly well - and certainly there are millions of people who have no clue it was written in response to Sept. 11th. They might think she whipped it up just for Katrina. But I guess it's all about whether Stevie would feel comfortable doing it.

Default Benefit Song Selection

My vote is for HAEWAFY and I am thinking she may also do "Whenever I Call You Friend" with Kenny Loggins since Loggins and Messina are also on the bill for the benefit.

I don't think Stevie and Kenny Loggins are too friendly nowadays.

Default Heartfelt Tunes

Well she is supposed to sing a heartfelt tune, so I would say she will probably sing Has Anyone ever Written Anything For You or Landslide( to the discussion about natural disaster songs, it does not matter, people are not going to look for disaster related words). But on the radio they said Fleetwood Mac was going to be there and I think Sara would be very appropriate and I would die if they did it.

HAEWAFY--hands down IMO Landslide doesn't fit........it's too much about herself........ Although the When the rains come down--there's no pain and there's no doubt (HAEWAFY)--kind of doesn't fit either...... hopefully she will surprise us all and sing something totally unexpected......... I think she will do 1 song and then everyone will do a song together at the end...... Is this going to be broadcast does anyone know???

Default Astounding...

I'd LOVE to say "Planets of the Universe" but I don't think enough people

have heard it. . . .

But how about "Trouble in Shangri-la?"

Gotta admit HAEWAFY sounds most likely, though.
