Small things you notice about Stevie... - Page 6

She always makes googly eyes at Lindsey while he's playing or singing, but he doesn't seem to do it back to her as much.

She does the "frozen face" look in pictures because the wrinkles don't show! Smile, and all the lines around the eyes and mouth suddenly appear. Plus I love that pout.

I love her articulation. I'd like to be able to speak that way without always using contractions. That said, she does say some things differently, like for today: "too-day" instead of "ta-day." Or for July: "joo-ly" instead of "juh-ly."

She's very serious in interviews. From the ones I've seen on TV or the PC, she doesn't smile that much and is very intense.

Oh, and gotta give a shout-out to this one:

Quote:

i love thee stevie, with hair like silk,
lips like cherries, skin like milk,
your shell-like ears, your dainty hands,
and eyes so black, like frying pans

Is this from The Flintstones, per chance?

Blissed out is watching Stevie perform Gypsy live in your 75 million dollar mansion while sipping pina coladas after getting caught in the rain. Hey, I can dream!

Would she be riding a Unicorn??

For instance when she sings..."I Have..." there is a phlemmy kind of sound she makes.

Ya know, I thought I was the only one who noticed this..It's especially prominent in the Dance version of "Gypsy" she says "have" almost like with a G instead of H.

Totally. And nearly suffocated.

I never really noticed the H before, maybe because English is not my native language? But is that why when she hurls 'And go hoooooooooome' in Gold Dust Woman, I always think she says 'go gooooooold'?

Yes! Yes! Yes! Perfect example!

The "I Ghave no fear".....part really shows it.

It's very sweet, actually. I'm not ranking on it at all - it's a very Stevie-esque inflection and it adds to the juicyness of her songs. I just wonder if there is a bit of a septum problem. She has such a gorgeous, delicate nose (I always despaired that she would damage it with crap like cocaine), so perhaps there is a malformation in her nasal passages that produces her beautiful sound, but makes it hard for her to get her throat around her "h's"? I don't know...I'm only 'speculatin'.

Yeah, that's why! I could totally see thinking that, too.

Thats a picture of the OSOTM hologram. That is an actual snapshot of the hologram. The other picture it depicts is her smiling.

Oooh, that annoyed me!

Are you serious? I thought it was the most adorable thing ever when she bit that bottom lip but I've often wondered why she stopped. Did someone tell her "Stevie, you must stop biting your lip on stage!" or did she just naturally stop doing it.

Also, she talks about cats a lot for someone who is such a big dog lover (and has 2 of them) but then again "she is like a dog in the dark" doesn't have quite the same affect.
