Seven Wonders

Well, as a kid in the 70's (deprived by a freak father that didn't think we needed a TV) I also read Triad (not written by Taylor Caldwell-I can't remember who wrote it but I know it was not Taylor,entirely different writing style) and I read this before I knew Stevie or the song Rhiannon. When I see what this little paperback goes for on Ebay I sure wish I knew what I did with my copy. Anyways, Triad was a shorter and much more entertaining read than anything by Taylor Caldwell...a supernatural tale of twin possesion or something of the sort. I too was fascinated by the main characters names, Rhiannon and Brahnwen (sp?) and thought if my two cats Pinky and Noodle ever died I would name the next batch of cats more sophisticated names like Rhiannon and Brahnwen. If only I had thought to write a song instead....hehe!

Back to Sandy Stewart, Cat Dancer and I Pretend are good songs. I really love I Pretend alot and I love how Stevie sings her parts.

Decent stuff ( those two songs anyway)

I have a third song..her first ( only?)single that was on MTV back in the day( 1984-85?). They have her interviewing and she's talking about Stevie ( WHY their voices are similar=smoking) and her music and then they play the video...very boring. I can't remember the title of the song though.

If you guys have ever seen the alternate video for Stand Back, it's basically a tribute to Gone With the Wind. Stevie must have been heavily influenced by that movie. She's dressed in Scarlett's green dress and rides a horse. There's an soldier who comes into her room in the video...a house on fire....basically, it's Tara. Welcome to the room Sara...for Scarlett....it all fits together! Check out the video if you can. I honestly like it better than the Stand Back that we all know...just because it's such an original concept.

Pinky and Noodle! Lmao! Just as well Stevie didn't read those names in a book and get inspired to write a song about them!

Pinky rides like a bell through the night
And wouldn't you love to love her ...
..All your life you've never seen
Noddle taken by the sky.

OMG-Down on Rodeo-you're right. I never thought of it that way:
"Pinky rings like a bell thru the night..."
"Said Noodle, you're the poet in my heart..."
somehow that just doesn't work!
