What are your unpopular Stevie opinions

Here's why I like that moment: On the surface, it's all pudgy childhood & goodness & light & insufferable "whimsy" & Disneyfied emotions. But there is a fly on the ointment. As Elaine is gripped & pulled up onstage, her bare knee is banged painfully against the stage edge, with bits of skin & subcutaneous tissue being scraped off. Blood isn't directly visible, but it happens so quickly that I wouldn't be surprised if blood were seeping through & leaving stains on the pugdy childhood dress & even on the arena seats. The patella & possibly the shin bone are banged & bruised with purplish-blueish welts, indicating bleeding below the surface, & lending an alluring darkness & nihilism to the papier-mache paste & starched milk quality of the incident.

David, you're my hero!

And I have this hunch that Beethoven and Goethe both had some astute observations there

Indeed. I cringe when I see that.

WOW! What a vivid imagination you have. I love that video..none of anything
you just described is evident to me. Elaine apeared to be quite content in the arms of her muse. What you described seemed like an episode of ER..
