It's too bad they had to cut "Stand Back" on TV. They missed a golden opportunity for Molly Shannon to do her 50-year-old lady character and point out that Stevie is 63 and can "still streeeeetch....aaaaaaand KICK!"

Well said! Thank you for that! And I totally agree. She is a graceful, kind hearted rock and roll witch that still has it!!!! Stand Back was amazing!

I think the last time I saw her in the knee high tall black ones was when she performed the Super Bowl. I love when she brings out the tall ones for us like this.

She wore the tall red "original" red ones on the Unleashed Tour in the beginning before she switched over to the flat shoes after a couple of weeks or so.

that's a beautiful shot. I miss those skirts SO much. I wish she'd return to wearing them on a regular basis.

because her album wasn't charting on itunes, the show pushed her album up on amazon, but that doesn't count for a lot of sales.

Why doesn't Stevie take advantage of these talk show appearances and promote more songs from In Your Dreams? She has a new album but continues to perform(for the most part) her signature songs instead of new songs that aren't well-known amongst the general public. (I was stunned when she appeared on Ellen earlier this year and performed Stand Back instead of Secret Love.) If anything, this should generate a renewed interest for Bella Donna and The Wild Heart but I don't think it's doing much for In Your Dreams.

Stevie has limited choice in the matter. She's mentioned that all of the shows ask her to do "Landslide." She backed out of an Idol appearance this year because they wouldn't let her play "Secret Love."

She stated in an interview that Ellen wanted her to do Stand Back, so I agree, I don't she always has the choice of what to perform on a show. I liked the mix of old and the new single on The Talk. I'm so happy we didn't get Landslide again and got Edge of Seventeen. The Rhiannon she did was a great version, best I've heard in awhile.

This is funny when the girls of The Talk made the announcement about Stevie will be on the show.

I finally got a chance to watch this. I thought Stevie did excellent in the interview and the performances. She seemed super confident, and I think that all has to do with how happy and proud she is of In Your Dreams. I love watching her when she's like this!

It was a great pic. I've also been wondering where are all the clothes she was supposedly having made for this tour? I see a couple new tops but thats it? No one's saying anything about it though. I would love to see the handkerchief skirts return and the fab couture tops with the boots. I know Stevie has this stuff.

Wow - thanks for posting the songs from the show! I missed them on tv. I never, NEVER thought we'd see a short version of "Edge of Seventeen", on tv or much less, on tour. It's actually very refreshing.

Before this tour and this show, i thought Edge would eventually become 30 minutes, and that a future tour would be just Dreams, Stand Back, and Edge of 17, with an encore of Landslide.
