So, how come this is only on Live? During what era was it written? (Tusk maybe?)

And isn't it great?

It is a Tusk era song. There are a few studio demos/outtakes out there. One outtake I call 'offkey' is so horrible! Stevie sounds awful It makes me laugh.


I love this song a lot. The main reason I do is because it is along the same vein as The Chain.

Off-key singing is pretty much always entertaining. It seems strange to me that it's a Tusk era song, because, for some reason, it really doesn't seem like any of her other Tusk songs to me.

I have a remix I can send you that I got off the StevieNicks.info site. If I send you the one of the CD, I'd have to send it as a .wav file, though, because I don't have the software to convert it. But I'll do it if you have the space in your e-mail inbox.

I haven't tried that yet. I know that from Yahoo mail, you can choose the "attach files" option when you're composing an e-mail, find the file on your hard drive by pressing the "browse" button and looking for it. A friend of mine told me about this site you can use for e-mailing music to people called You Send It. It's very cool because you can use it to send files up to 1GB.

I think there are several studio versions of FireFlies. Maybe not, I'll have to check. I love the song on the live album, though!!

I think the version on LIVE can be considered the song's studio version since it really was never performed live, it was recorded new for the album.

And it's absolutely one of her BEST songs. I always forget it because of it not being on any album, but when I remeber it, it's easily in my top 10 Stevie songs. It's amazing. I think it's a more poetic band song then The Chain (which is great but more obvious)
