Any one else really disappointed? - Page 2

Well, I'm not going to buy it. I paid enough money for the box set and I'd rather listen to her rarities and bootlegs anyway. But what I would buy is a dvd of all her old and current concert footage with some FM thrown in there.

Well, she sold out MSG back in June and she only had to sing I Need To Know and a couple of duets!

True... she probably will next tour...by herself

do you think she could? the crowd was loving her...people were chanting her name before she even came on...

Don't get me wrong -- I'm not saying we can't or shouldn't discuss it. We just need to be mindful of its unconfirmed status.

Exactly. How many times have we been duped by Amazon or some other CD selling site before about "future" cds or even DVDs for that matter?

I actually am pretty impressed. I like the remixes, and crying in the night. I just don't get Everyday and HAEWAFY not being on the us cd.

AliceLover · #22 09-09-2006, 11:43 PM

I am not upset by this at all. ANYTHING Stevie at this point ill take. Shes getting older folks. A new CD prob means more touring which I think is great. I don't think theres much more toruing for her left so I say enjoy it while we have it.

DavidMn · #23 09-09-2006, 11:48 PM

Thats not too good if thta's the final song list.

Jeez you people bitch about everything! Its a Very Best Of for goodness sake! It was never going to have 'rarities' on it - its made for the mainstream. We had our release of rarities with "Enchanted".

I think its a great idea to release a current "Very Best of" that showcases that Stevie was just more than the 80s hits. It will also prompt fans to go out and buy full Stevie albums...

Its bloody hard to please you people

Kelly · #25 09-10-2006, 07:13 AM

I was thinking the same thing, Michael.

Its a VBO/GH album....its not going to have rarities! I am so thrilled with Crying in the Night and Long Way to Go......I will buy it just for those two songs. This is a label thing....a way for them to make money. They aren't going to make money selling obscure songs and demos. Nobody likes that stuff but us and this release is not "for" hard cores. I do not think she needs another GH package but it seems to be standard practice.

Where is this all coming from? People aren't posting saying that a commerical Best Of album needs to be filled with rarities. Most of us are saying we aren't interested in a CD that has nothing new or different. And since Crying In the Night is on there, that means rarities were/are allowed and so it's fair for fans to discuss other ones that they would like to see included and to express disappointment there aren't more.

I'm actually quite impressed with the track list for this CD. I think it a good representation of Stevie's work. You can't do a CD like this and please everyone. It's impossible. So, I do have one problem with it. The Nightmare? What's THAT doing on there?

I also really would like to see a NEW shot of Stevie for this cover. It seems like she hasn't done any promo pictures in forever (probably since she hasn't released anything in forever

But I really hope they don't pull out some tired photo for the cover that we've all seen a zillion times...

I don't think I knew that these three were ever released as singles. Probably because they didn't even make the Hot 100. I might have prefered "Touched by an Angel" or "Somebody Stand By Me". I found pictures for Reconsider Me and If You Ever Did Believe, but does anyone have a picture of the Twisted single?

I think Twisted may have just been a radio issued track, or single. I've heard it tons on the radio here.

I think it's a good idea to put this collection out there and have something out that's new on the shelf and updated. Enchanted, like most would agree, can't really be considered a "best of" in the traditional sense - and one that can easily be purchased, cause it can't! So from '91 till now to have an updated "best of" or hits collection, makes sense. She's been fairly active in the last few years (playing only her hits anyway), and this looks to be gathering most of the singles in one collection. A few are missing, but the biggest ones are all there.

I say bring it on...

Since OoohMissionary has been unwilling or, more likely, incapable of producing any evidence that this tracklisting is legitimate, I'd like to stress, again, that we really should refrain from getting too excited or too disappointed by it.
