Question #22: Three of your favorite lyrics?

chiliD · #**497** 09-30-2011, 10:12 AM

ADDING ON...

Question #1: "Crying In The Night". It was the first song on the first album I heard of Stevie Nicks. Wasn't really the SONG that "drew me in"...it was the album cover (DUH!!).

Question #2: can't narrow it to one, difficult enough to narrow it to 5. Don't have time to search 'em out right now, but will come back to edit this question when I find the photos.

Question #3: Fleetwood Mac at Anaheim Stadium (Sept 75) when they opened for Loggins & Messina and The Faces. The "Rhiannon" that day was jaw-droppingly stunning.

Question #4: Yes, I will admit that there've been a few occasions where my eyes have welled up while listening to either a Stevie song, or one of her songs with Fleetwood Mac. Ok, I remember, USUALLY it's after one of the pre-79 live "Rhiannon"'s

Question #5: Her relationship with.....ME! Because that's the only one I know the intimate details about. (and, yes, I AM being serious)

Question #6: "Dreams". No..."Silver Springs". No..."Dreams". Well, either one of those two.

Question #7: "No Spoken Word", "Ghosts Are Gone", "Sisters Of The Moon", any live "Rhiannon" before 1979 (the weird occurance of "smiling" AND "crying" simultaneously).

Question #8: wouldn't really have one (a tombstone, that is, since I want to be creamated & ashes poured into the surf in SoCal)...but, for the game's sake:
"I have always been a storm".

Question #9: Patti Smith's version of Buddy Holly's "Words Of Love". Her arrangement sounds custom made for Stevie.

Question #10: "Dinner tonight? Or, breakfast tomorrow?"

Question #11:
I Can't Wait
Sable On Blond
Maybe Love Will Change Your Mind
Rooms On Fire
Planets Of The Universe
No Spoken Word
Ghosts Are Gone
Touched By An Angel
Bella Donna
Talk To Me
In Your Dreams
Sorcerer
Violet & Blue
If I Were You
Stand Back
(encore 1)
Moonlight
Edge Of Seventeen
(encore 2)
Gold Dust Woman
Has Anyone Ever Written Anything For You

Question #12 (uh, there were TWO #11's people...nobody noticed? Shame on you!):
What she wore for that photo shoot on the hood of the race car.

Question #13 (or 12 for those who haven't been counting): A beach, a sunset, a crackling fire, a bottle of champagne on ice, an acoustic guitar

Question #14 (c'mon people, keep up...or recount the questions YOU'RE OFF BY ONE...STILL!!!!): Bella Donna

Question # 15: I don't have one.

Question # 16:
"Rhiannon", August 30, 1977, Great Western Forum, Inglewood, CA.

Question # 17: There's probably a few, but I can't specifically name one at the moment.

Question #18: Hmmm...can't think of somebody for the younger Stevie, but for the Stevie from about 1990 on, Carrie Fisher or Linda Blair.

Question # 19: Oh, without a doubt it HAS to start with Bombay Sapphire Gin, sweet & sour, and cranberry juice.[/QUOTE]

Question #20: Pick any from the following list:
The Second Time
No Questions Asked
Welcome To The Room...Sara
any song after "Rooms On Fire" on tOSotM
any song after "I Can't Wait" on side one of RAL
Running Through The Garden

Question #21: Her guest appearance with Bob Welch's band when he opened for the New Barbarians at the Forum...when, during the middle of "Ebony Eyes", she stopped the band to give a whole lotta crap to the "industry a$$wipes" in the first few rows for being rude to Bob & band.

Question #22:
"What was it she wanted? They said she had everything."
"If I were you, I'd trust in me like I trust in you"
"I should have known from the first I'd be the brokenhearted"

Impossible!! With my other favorite singers I could do it....but not with Ms Nicks. That's why I love Stevie, every song has a lyric or a verse that I love......
"what a minute, baby...stay with me a while...you said you'd give me light but you never told me about the fire"
"Women, they will come and they will go...when the rain washes you clean, you'll know"
"I will follow you down until the sound of my voice will haunt you"
and it goes on and on....storms....beautiful child...spinning wheels...outside the rain....IMPOSSIBLE!

"Where is the reason? Don't blame it on me, blame it on my wild heart!"

"Step into the velvet of the morning, let yourself lay back within your dreams. Take on the situation, but not the torment. Now you know it's not as bad as it seems."

"It's just the ghost of what you really want, and the ghost of the past that you live in. And it's the ghost of the future that you're so frightened of..."

21 I'm proud that despite the mess she was in both creatively and personally during the late eighties and early ninties, she came full circle with 'The Dance'. She looked and sounded amazing, and a lot of the material from the last two albums stands up with her classics. I think her 'legend' status is quite firmly secure now.

22" If I had my life to live over, I would never dream, I'd still wish you gone, and I would live alone."

"She is dancing away from you now, she was just a wish, she was just a wish, and her memory is all that is left for you now."

"The clouds never expect it when it rains, but the sea changes colour, but the sea does not change."

Question #23: If you were Stevie for a day, what would you do?

jellyman10 · #**504** 10-03-2011, 03:00 AM

Favourite lyric:
He was singing
And undoing
The laces
Undoing the laces

If I was Stevie for a day:
A day isn't enough time to write my autobiography, so that has to wait till I'm Stevie for a Year!!
So with my day, I would shout on Karen and tell her to book me a solo gig in the UK, but remember to check with Jellyman10 on available dates first.

WildHearted · #**505** 10-03-2011, 07:57 AM

Favorite lyric.... Most all of them. The entitety of storms, dreams, the highwayman...

If I were Stevie for a day, I would hang out with Lindsey.

Aussie W/Heart · #**506** 10-03-2011, 09:55 PM

Question #22,
I close my eyes softly,
Till i become that part of the wind,
That we all long for sometime

All of moonlight, gypsy & GDW..

Question #23

I would write like a manic & finish that autobiography, then hand it over to a publisher, insisting that my book will be on the shelves no later than Xmas...

Question 22:

Some favorite lyric lines:

Fleetwood Mac

When the rain washes you clean you'll know

Take your silver spoon and dig your grave

Never have I been a blue calm sea, I have always been a storm

Solo

That is how songs are written, stories are told, rumours are started

You don't give in to yourself, you give in to your friends

Well, I've already done everything that you are doing
