I'm sure the retrospective at the start will clarify who he is & how they "burst onto the music scene with the blockbuster Rumours album..." along with other cliche phrases.
No doubt we'll hear how she would have auditioned for Idol & how she can totally identify with the contestants' overnight fame because she went from supporting Lindsey to being rich in an instant. One day I was scrubbing toilets, months later I was worth a million dollars with Lindsey.

I hope they use good pics. My pet peeve is when they talk about the 1970s but show pics from much later (like in Behind the Music).

Considering the theme of the week, I'm wondering whom she will talk about as being her own idol. Joni, Janis, Bob Dylan, Led Zeppelin, the Allman Bros, Buddy Holly, the Eagles, Tom Petty, her grandfather...
Guessing there will be a lot of talk about getting to work with your idols, getting to cover your idols, having to be distinct as a performer and true to your vision so you can be someone's idol in the future. Guessing the show might also mention that Stevie has mentored many younger performers over the years.


I haven't watched this show in many years & of course I'm flying to a conference the week she's all over TV. I don't have a DVR, & I worry that American Idol can be pretty vigilant about getting things yanked off Youtube. I'm hopeful I'll get to see this stuff eventually, though. Hoping there's at least something worth seeing & not just the same old same old talk.
