Are you saying these are the ONLY Stevie demos on YouTube? Or is this a list of demos posted from one YouTube user in particular?

Because you failed to mention quite a lot in this list, like "If You Were My Love" and "Sanctuary" for example, which are both definitely on YouTube, as well as a lot more not mentioned on your list.

I also noticed these missing, just off the top of my head:

Love Don't Fail Me Now
Beautiful Ghost
Knocking On Doors (Definitely not on YouTube; I haven't checked the others)
Ooh, Ooh Baby
Takes a Long Time
You Like Me
The Tragedy of One's Own Soul

No, I was saying that there are A LOT of songs NOT included on Welcomechris' list that ACTUALLY ARE on YouTube. "Sanctuary" and "IYWL" just being some examples.

It just occurred to me that Stevie has mentioned "Prettiest Girl In The World" in at least one interview in the past so I wonder if it might be included? I say this because she rarely talks about unreleased material in specific terms, so it would seem she not only remembered this song, but was probably keen to record it one day.

Although I've had this demo in my collection for years, I've only recently become familiar - I hope it's included.

I seem to remember hearing about this being one of the tracks that she worked on with Dallas Austin for TISL, but can't find any source. Maybe I imagined it?

Yeah I'm pretty sure she first mentioned "Prettiest Girl In The World" around the time of TISL and possibly again about 5 years ago. There must be a newshound among us who can turn the exact details up...

2007 Telegraph UK

Does she see beauty when she looks in the mirror? 'Sometimes I still think that I'm looking OK. And other times I look at myself and I go, "Oh, my God, you're so old." '
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. When you've been all that and you're a lot older, it is hard. You see the lines' - Nicks runs her fingers along the thickening curve of her jaw - 'and you start to see this happening; and even though I'm thinner than I was a long time ago, you see your body changing and you go, well maybe this is not age-appropriate and I shouldn't wear the chiffon scarf any more; and then you go, but if I'm going to change the whole thing it's not me any more.' She shakes the thought to one side. 'I'm just terribly excited to get into my rock'n'roll penthouse and out of here. I feel old here.'

Just in regard to Stevie regularly wearing the same outfit, I seem to recall some photos that were taken during the recording of IYD where she did wear some different items of clothing - including colour! I specifically remember a shot of her learning over a musician playing a keyboard and she seemed to be wearing some kind of pinky, peachy chiffon top, but it might have been a different colour. I was hoping to see footage of this in the documentary, but don't think it was included. (I can't be sure because I couldn't watch it all the way through and just started skipping at intervals after the first five minutes.)
I must say that the top with cut-out shoulders doesn't do it for me - she's much too old and chubby to carry this off these days. She started wearing this type of style during the Street Angel promo photos and it didn't do her any favours in her mid 40's, let alone mid 60's.
I recommend she get into some brightly coloured, lurex cat-suits - that's where all the action is!!

That's funny because none of those songs on your list are on YouTube (except for You Like Me which I had)

Interesting! I didn't check, except for Knocking on Doors, only because I wanted to link it here a few weeks ago.

I think Stevie should record Melacine, as is, without any additional lyrics. It would be fine as is - it just needs a polished instrumental track.

Same with Forest of the Black Roses.

They could be interludes between two lengthier songs.
