The reality is, with one or two exceptions, Stevie probably didn't actually get most of these songs from Youtube. Something like The Dealer has probably been in her mind to officially record for years. Yes, maybe she went to Youtube to listen to it again, but she didn't discover the bulk of them again on Youtube the way she says she did Without You. She probably had a list she was thinking of and sent other people to Youtube to help her figure out which from that list would make the cut.

And you're right that what she didn't choose is interesting. Because then everyone will have to make two columns and decide if she didn't choose it because she rejected it for good or because she's saving it for later. With the Rhiannon songs, based on what she's been saying for decades now, she's saving them, for sure. With other songs, as was discussed withSpace Needle, that song is never going to be released. It's over. Fergeddaboutit.
