I think maybe what Stevie's trying to do with all the hand movements is to get the fans to mimick her when she's on stage, like they did during Say You Will. Remember those movements? lol I used to try doing them while driving if the song came on. Those movements were more fun than what she's doing now though.
Stevie looked amazing on Ellen. She obviously is still under the weather and I just hope she's not going to push herself too soon. Pneumonia takes alot out of a person.She didn't hold any long notes most likely because she still can't fill her lungs with alot of air yet without coughing. I can't imagine her doing a whole concert for a while.

That's funny. My mom said the same thing. She was pushing for either the ribbons on the mic stand or...shawls! I can't tell you how many times she has said Stevie wears the same thing, yada, yada...and now she wants the return of the shawl!

It was quite funny. Mom asked if she gave up smoking recently. Uh, why no, Mom. She never started

I like the hand/arm movement. It's like she's trippin' at a Dead show or having a flashback of some sort.

OH thanks so much for posting this! I had to work yesterday. I think she looks and sounds great and so humble and grateful but Ellen should be thanking her for gracing her stage. I do think Ellen couldn't stop saying "I love you" as she should have. I gotta say, that flu/pneumonia went around this year and it is bad...it was a combo of sinusitis, bronchitis and ear infection...the 5-day antibiotic ...some of us weren't 100% for a few weeks, ugh. She'll be strong again for her touring, I'm sure!

Maybe, but I also think Stevie's nervous about presenting new material--she is afraid no one will know what she is singing/saying and wants to get the words across. (she said she doesn't like to dump a whole lot of new songs on her fans at a show, and doesn't want to present anything NEW or classic on TV, either). It's kind of like "stevie signing."

Oh she does... it's not that high, only goes up to the fourth F sharp on the piano. She sings the A above that tons of times in every show. She might have some trouble with the low note in the verse, "and soft yellow" cause it's the second B on a piano and most females can't even come close to that, but it's such a short note that it wouldn't make a difference. The climactic F sharp, wouldn't expect her to hold it for 13 seconds like in the studio version but she could do at least a good 6-7 seconds easily, especially since there's a pause right before it.

Don't know what's wrong but the video is lagging way behind the audio.

What player are you using? It's a HD, so it's best to use the VLC player, which is freeware and can play more cross platform file-types than anything else.

Dude I'd let Stevie kiss me any day even if she has pneumonia .

P.S. I'm sick to my stomach from nerves over this LA ticket thing. I hate waiting!!! I can't' concentrate on anything right now.
