Hmm, maybe my opinion isn't so unpopular....

Stevie is not and never will be a lesbian! Sorry Folks!
It is not her thing...IMO!Sharon is MARRIED..to a man.

I know EXACTLY what you mean!!!!!!

Edited out unnecessary confrontational response

My unpopular opinions:
- I don't get the wardrobe, twirls, reebok debates.
- Some of her baby boomer fans got a Dorian Gray relationship with her.
- I don't like I can't Wait and Outside The Rain
- Joan of Arc is one of her masterpieces.
- Tom Petty at this point would be a much more exciting tour mate than Lindsey.
- Her romanticism is cleverly used to cover-up a strong confrontational element in her songwriting.

That's all for now.

I agree with all of that except for the dislike of ICW. Romy noooooooo. I really don't like OTR either...

I posted about it, it's in the SYW Tour book. I wish I had it on the 'puter I'd send it to ya!

1.) I think she was a little silly for putting "That Made Me Stronger" on "Trouble in Shangri-la."

2.) I think she sometimes misperceives how hard she works, compared to the "average person." But I feel she's VERY clear on how rough most people's lives are.

3.) I think things sometimes seem much bigger to her than they really are.

4.) I don't think she would ever, ever, ever want to get back together with
Lindsey. Not in a million years.

5.) I think she's still in love with Mick, always has been, and always will be.

6.) I think she didn't actually like Prince all that much.

7.) Not like I think she's Einstein or something, but I think that in interviews she often hides how intelligent and practical she is, although I think she's been a little better about that lately.

8.) I think she's currently doing an unbelievably intense media blitz in Australia with the sole purpose of subtley re-defining her image, headed up by Liz Rosenberg, who by the way was or is Madonna's publicist as well.
She's a total "Top Gun," doesn't come cheap, and I think there's HUGE amounts of effort and thought that are going into this behind-the-scenes.

9.) I think that, although she may still feel somewhat sad, she's having an absolute blast in Australia and absolutely loves it there. And so, along those lines -

10.) I think she's VERY seriously considering moving to Australia. Not necessarily as a primary residence - I guess she considers Phoenix to be home - but I betcha she's been looking at some real estate ads.

11.) I think she still smokes, but is trying not to and doesn't want others to follow her example.

12.) I think that when she's not touring or doing business-related things, when she's at home watching tv or reading or something, she TOTALLY forgets she's a "big rock star" and just kinda chills, no mysticism, no "etherealness," no chiffon, no nuthin' - just this nice lady watching star trek or reading a book or whatever.

13.) Believe it or not, I think maybe she knows how to use a vacuum cleaner and boil water...

14.) Not necessarily an "unpopular" one but - I think she knows how to ski and enjoys it, or at least used to.

15.) I think sometimes she'd much rather be riding a horse or hanging out on a boat than singing "Stand Back" for the ten billionth time in concert. And I think she's so sick of performing "Gold Dust Woman" that she's about to spit.

16.) I think when photographers aren't around, her house is a mess, always has been, always will be.

17.) I think she isn't as careful as she should be about "borrowing" certain things from her influences ( Oscar Wilde, the guitarist of The Police/Edge of Seventeen riff, etc. ) She doesn't know where the line is and she's VERY lucky that she hasn't been sued, and if she had been it would have made her a BETTER songwriter and a BETTER person.

18.) I think she lies through her teeth about what Edge of Seventeen is actually about, and will never, never, never admit what it's really about. And she thinks it isn't obvious to most people over the age of 12. ( Granted it was first written about John Lennon and her uncle and I know that meant a lot to her, but have you SEEN the HBO Special? Please.

)

Welp - you asked!

Excuse me, I'm going to go hide now.

I love your Liz Rosenberg theory..It is interesting she has been hired.

Here you go:

I know this is almost turning into a popular opinion now, but I also love When I See You Again. It never fails to give me chills, especially when Lindsey comes in.

Also, I like Enchanted, Sometimes It's a Bitch and Street Angel (the song, though the album is not all THAT bad either).

Buckingham coming in at the end was downright heartbreaking....just a tear jerker - but I could have done with less of the "whats-a-matter babeh's"....some of them were embarrasingly bad, only to be redeemed as the song carries on.

totally agree
i think 2 what have been plenty
but it doesn't annoy me as much as it must do some people
