Lines That Apply To You

[PenguinHead]

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

Take on the situation but not the torment -- now you know it's not as bad as it seems

Come in out of the darkness you are in love with...and I'm ready to sail

[Boots]

Thanks, Guys. I just blew off some steam. I've been a member of another board (baseball oriented), for years, and I've had to deal with some painful snarkiness - so I guess I was fearful that I was running into that here. But you've all been swell.

Cliffdweller - I have adored the song "Angel" since the day it came out. The song is so understatedly sexy. I call it my Stevie strut song...it's just a tambourine shaking, boot stomping beauty with Lindsey's gorgeous background vocals and guitar licks floating on John McVie's bassline, which is just perfection...it gets under your skin. And Christine's keyboard just adds so much juiciness to that song. That's the song that personifies Stevie to me...like you want to be in her platforms and chiffon and singing that song - meanwhile everyone is loving you and just wants to be you.

Just saw the Tusk Documentary on youtube.com (thanks for the suggestion, guys!). I saw the part where it showed them recording the song - and those practice duets with Lindsey were just heartwrenching. They just soooooo need to be singing together. They were so beautiful together - at least muscially. Dang, I hate to be such a romantic (or a shipper? Not sure what that is -but I think there's a little of the in me), but despite their troubles, there was beaucoup chemistry between the two when he was at the piano. Damn all if he didn't love her then...and there is no way she wasn't taken by him at that moment. Also caught the part where they sang it on stage....love how Lindsey's hands just touched her with the rythmn.

Lindsey's hands were touching more than rhythm! Wasn't that the one where he has his hands all over her head or something...I distinctly remember his hands all over her beret

At one of the tusk shows, didn't Lindsey start dry-humping her during the song?

And she looked at him with this laughing smirk, like "What are we doing?"

My faves
To survive the distance, everyone fights

lovin you isnt the right thing to do, how can i ever change things that i feel

I tell myself you never loved me

One thing i think you should know
I ain't gonna miss you when you go

and thats enough for me

[Richard B]

Don't know why I have to work
Don't know why I can't play
Turn me off turn me out
But don't turn me away

and

So it's hard to find
Someone with that kind of intensity

I was just listening to this song on my iPod this morning on the train to work, and soooo related to it! I don't want to work! I want to play!

But I've really grown to love this song over the years...the harmonies are just so gorgeous.

Umm, I think you're right. I do remember some really crazy hanky-panky going on on stage between those two! Can you just imagine that NOW??

During Angel, was it? I saw the full version of that for the first time this week. It sounds worse than it was. I thought it was really sweet! [Then again, maybe I just like the idea of Lindsey's roving hands. Ah well.] And the cute little "What on earth are you at you complete psycho " look Stevie gives him.

Aww! Everyone go aww.

Yup! First his hand was on her ass, then around her shoulders, and then on her beret, and she just turned and looked at him like...you crazy, man. It was sweet, because I always thought he really despised her dduring this time. Yet, they seemed to find moments where they were on comfortable ground with each other.

I've got to find the dry humping one!!! And if the November 1979 Madison Square Garden performance exists on video - I'd love to find that too! I was there. Sadly, I was also disappointed in the performance. Stevie kept running off to change her outfit, and it was really annoying. The band seemed so deattached - not cohesive - like 5 individual solo artists - not a band. I think this was the performance where someone in the front row yelled to LB that he sold out. I didn't hear it...I was in the back of the arena! I remember Stevie wore high heel shoes - not boots - at one point. And then she kicked them off into the crowd.

What, really? Oh my God. I can picture it now.

Lindsey to Christine: A thousand points if she gets him in the eye!
Stevie: *singing, singing, kick!*
Random fan: Woo! Yeah, Stevie!! Woohoo!
Flying shoe: Bang!
Random fan: *bang in the forehead, unconcious on the floor*
Stevie:

I always did wonder how those shoes landed in the audience. But yeah - that is one memory that really sticks out - other than her constant wardrobe changes.
