I just love it when Stevie talks about her demos and unreleased songs in interviews....

She pulls a face and laughs. 'I wrote a song once called The Prettiest Girl in the World, and that was a long time ago. But when you've been the prettiest girl in the world - and I don't mean the most beautiful girl; I just mean a really pretty girl, a really talented girl, a girl who writes really good songs.

The songs must be floating around in her head still. I wonder what this one would sound like if she were to sing it today.

She was just like you....

Awesome, Pip and Sharon! Thank you.

Goddess had that pic in her sig a couple days ago, and I went *thud* and asked her where it was from. Just gorgeous, all those sumptuous winter colors are my fave. I, too, am a fan of lighting.

"I don't know if Stevie Nicks's passport describes her as 'rock'n'roll star', but it is the term she uses to describe herself, completely unselfconsciously, as if rock'n'roll star were a vocation, or a destiny embodied in the genes."

I always thought it was funny that she completely unselfconsciously called herself that, too.

"'And believe me, talk about feeling old.' Nicks laughs. 'I go in and some of these kids don't even know who I am. So of course I tell them.'"

of course!

I think I'm the only one who does not love the new pic. I like her hair and I like the whole set up, but her face just looks too airbrushed to me.

'If you asked me, "What's your idea of a good time?" I'd say a fantastic grand piano, overlooking the ocean if possible; or going to a studio and being able to record; to write a new song and listen back to something I wrote yesterday and really put it together.'

WOW...is anyone as shocked as I am that she said this? Hint, Hint, I hope!

Terrific interview.

Quote:

At that point if I could find a Percoset, because I'm so miserable, I'd take that, or I'd take a Fiorocet - anything.

These two pills are for pain relief. Fioricet is for complex tension headaches. To take pain medication when you don't have some kind of chronic pain affliction; yes, I'd say her addiction was out of control by then. I wonder if these other drugs were from that same psychiatrist, or if she got some from friends or what.

Quote:

Nicks admitted herself to the Daniel Freeman Memorial Hospital in Venice Beach.

I had always wondered where she went the second time. But I researched a little, and I think where she went was the Daniel Freeman Marina Hospital which is in Marina Del Ray. The Daniel Freeman Memorial Hospital isn't even in Venice Beach; it is in Inglewood. All locations near each other.

Here is a picture from the website:

The facility was built in 1969 as Marina Mercy Hospital. Then in 1980, it changed to the Daniel Freeman Marina Hospital. Now it has a new name.

Quote:

Three years ago Nicks and a couple of girlfriends spent three months in Hawaii brainstorming the Tetralogy with a view to translating it into a musical work. 'It could be a movie. It could be a record. It could be a couple of records. It could be a mini-series. It could be an animated cartoon.

Basically, Stevie went to Hawaii after Fleetwood Mac ended their tour in September 2004. For "brainstorming" purposes. And apparently the "brainstorming" hasn't even resulted in a conclusion on the format of the work. That is some damn ineffective brainstorming.

I just emailed Perez: "Here's a bit of fabulousness to cleanse our palates from Britney, Ms. Nicks looking FIERCE in Telegraph."

Yes, it's a slow day at work.

I'm with everybody else. I LOVE THIS PICTURE!!! She's got to find a way to use it somewhere else. It's just so cool!!!! It is her and she looks like 25 years younger in this one.

Loved the article too. But have to admit as her good buddy Tom Petty says, she does not live in the real world. Take the comment that she has no idea what her zip code or her phone number is!!!! I knew she had no driver's license since 1978, but she got me with the zip code and phone number comments. And of course, the comment about investing her money but has no idea in what. Gotta love it !!!!

And OMG, the story about Glenn Perish (is that the guys name). Could not believe he'd be so dumb to take a total of 6 tranquilizers and not think he might be risking his life. Come on people. We kiow her brain had been "turned off" for a quite a while. What was he thinking. I am so amazed that Stevie and the rest of the MAC survied all the drugs.

And oh yeah, the comment about seeing Joe Walsh and falling for him instantly. Gotta love her. Who else do you know that see's somebody and instanly 'jumps on their lap". That's our Stevie -- ("once in a million years a lady like her rises.) She got that right. She is unique and I just love her. Tom Petty described her as the little sister in your family that you love but that's different, you know the one you love but don't want to talk about. She certainly is that and why she's so special.

Regarding her great loves, she is friends with Mick and Don Henley. I wonder if she has any contact with Joe Walsh or Rupert Hine. Anybody know anthing?
