No like: I don't like the vampire stuff; I'm just not into it.

I hate the different girls saying "I am Stevie Nicks." It's weird & creepy.

And what's up with the owl? (I know, I know, what's up with the cockatiel...)

I like the vampire stuff, gives it a very gothic look/feel. The clip is very much True Blood meets Edgar Allan Poe meets Stevie Nicks. A great combination!
I think Stevie has been tied to witches so long more so than vampires, this is a nice change of pace.
As for the little girls, I think that is part of something bigger, like Stevie thru the years kind of thing.

I'm at work and I just did it...You won't be sorry!!

I don't know if I can add anythign that hasn't already been said but if this is just a taste, we are in for quite an amazing ride!

IMO the vampire thing totally fits with Stevie in a Beauty and the Beast kind of way.

Stevie has always been the singing Anne Rice to me. All that stuff (vampires, ghosts, witches) fit. No female singer ever started that before her.

Not to change the subject, but the person tweeting for Stevie must be high. Just got two really weird tweets.

Dot it! It features only 20-30 second snippets of four songs. Definitely gives you a taste of what's to come :-)

A special Thank You to Dave for reviving her artistically, and visually. The reel looks amazing and so does she. Really, it seems they have created something special...not just for Stevie fans, but it looks like it could also have a broader appeal without sacrificing herself (or her music).

I am totally knocked out by the power ballad (maybe) at the end when the awesome ariel camera panned away and up above the balcony...while she sang...you had to just gooooooo.

I think that is going to be my heart wrenching awesome identifying experience song...the DP and Executive Producer and the Director have outdone themselves...flattering...in your dreams...mindscape stuff...

takes my breath away...

I think the video is pretty bad.

-Terribly edited. There is no rhythm or meaning. (was very instructive to watch the first time with no sound)

-And the waste of 30 seconds at the beginning with Dave Stewart is garish. What's the point of bringing in that bit of neo-Bob Fosse/Moulin Rouge? It suggests Stevie is just showbiz kitsch.

-The vampires are ridic. If you're gonna do Twilight, the emphasis should be on hormones, not teeth.

-'I am Stevie Nicks." It was a lame trope when Spike Lee did it (and had already been lampooned by Robert Downey Sr. in the 70s(?)). And it remains lame. Many layers of offensive in this context.

This worries me. Dave is not the man to handle Stevie's visual persona. Too bad she and the Mac are too cheap (or broke) to afford music video greats.

Aaaaanyway, as for the music: everywhere from intriguing to ravishing.

Thanks everyone for trying but nothing has worked. My computer wont play the danm thing. This is torture knowing it's right there and I cant see/hear it.

I don't think there's really enough there to ruin it for you. It's really exciting, though- do it!

Watch it. it's a good tease, but it doesn't really give too much away.

i know alot of folks find 'twilight' cheesy~ & i admit it does have a sort of cheese factor to it, especially the movies~ but i loved the books~ it reminded me of my first true love & seeing as stevie is a romantic, i don't find her 'twilight' concept so far fetched or kitschy~ at least she wasn't sporting a pair of fangs, well at least that i could see~
