Not the same, but singing and weeping at the same time has a name in French: 'chantepleure'. Ain't that pretty?

I LOOOVEEEEEE this performance!! She's just having so much fun out there and killing the vocal, it is just awesome.

Songs that make me smile:

Gypsy
If Anyone Falls
Gate and Garden
Blue Lamp
Gold and Braid
Imperial Hotel
Sometimes It's a Bitch (how can anyone NOT smile at those lyrics?!)

and of course,
any Stevie FM song (or any FM song, for that matter) I am lucky enough to hear on the radio.

If Anyone Falls makes me smile the most

I like to drive around and play this song really, really loud. It's easy to sing along to, it's fun and sweet, and makes you feel pretty damn good.

Me too. Sometimes I catch myself putting my finger to my lips and acting out the 'shhh' part in the middle of the song, whilst the other hand is still on the steering wheel!

#5 I think that everyone has overlooked Stevie's relationship with 'us' her fans. Where would she be without her audience? #6 And very much like"Has Anyone Ever Written Anything For You" ,"Love Is" has become a sweet goodby live.

Artemis · #**281** 09-14-2011, 12:07 PM

Ahhh. Catchup time.

#5) Your favourite of her relationships

Clichéd, I know, but, Lindsey Buckingham. Some of her best songs came from that relationship.

#6) Your favourite song about one of her relationships

Ooh. There's a few. Silver Springs, Beautiful Child, That's Alright, Long Way To Go, For What It's Worth and Thousand Days.

#7) A song that always makes you smile

Lately, Annabel Lee, For What It's Worth and Ghosts Are Gone. But, out of the rest of her body of work... Rhiannon, Gold Dust Woman, Gypsy and T-t-talk to me, mainly because they are so much fun to sing along to really loudly whilst driving.

#8) The Stevie lyric you’d want on your tombstone

Ooh, this is difficult... and a little morbid.

I'm tempted to say "Taken by the sky" at the moment, since I can't think of anything else that would really work... apart from maybe I decided yesterday that I would leave you / I'm alright which can sorta work in a death-related way. I guess.
