For only $10 how can you not? It's a nice little time capsule of the 80's. Stevie at her megalomaniac best, sticking extra lines in songs and having her own close up. I swear she needed the extra close ups just so her hair would fit into the screen. If they didn't do it they would have had to put everyone else up on boxes so they'd all fit on the screen at the same time. But her outfits are superb. And I love the arrangement of Seven Wonders. I think the ending works better live than on the album cut. And I know I'm in the minority here but I love her extra little bit in Everywhere is great. I think Christine trying to sing the little "do do do's" at the end doesn't really work. That really should have been a keyboard. And whoever did the sound mix should have brought up the background vocals for that part. I think they were trying to do something like they did with Eyes of the World during the Mirage tour doing some interesting vocal play but since you can't hear the background singers as much it makes Chris sound silly. But I love the video of the rehearsal and everyone vamping it up for the camera. That's the highlight of the whole video for me and worth the $10 alone. I'd say get it. It's fun. Not the best FM performance there is out there but still, very fun.

Doesn't the ending bit sound basically the same on The Dance?

Yes, it does. They pretty much did the exact same arrangement except without Stevie. I always had this fantasy that somewhere on the cutting room floor there's one shot of Christine launching into to the chorus giving Stevie a look of "so help me, if you even..."
