Tom Petty songs you'd like to hear Stevie sing

OTR is one song I can't bear to see leave; that song is too good. She can drop Dreams, Rhiannon, I Need To Know, and Stand Back in favor of other stuff, though.

Waddy said on the Q & A that he argued for Bella Donna as the opener but it didn't work out. That would have been amazing.

That having been said, I think I could like Stevie recording Breakdown (with more vocals/lyrics) and Refugee, but my first choice would be Into The Great Wide Open. It has a Stevie kind of vibe & her mature voice would handle it well.

Yes on refugee and breakdown and Wide Open (though I don't like the song that much) But...I happen to love SDMHA, and especially NTK, a lot! My other fav. Tom songs are Am Girl, Waiting is Hardest Part, some other ones i can't remember. Stevie's welcome to cover them all, as far as i'm concerned.

You're saying OTR is better than those? I don't imagine you can mean you're just sick of those songs but not OTR after all the times she has done OTR.

I agree. I don't think Outside The Rain is a good opener, don't get me wrong, I LOVE this song but it doesn't really get a crowd pumped up. OTR would be a better song sandwiched somewhere in the middle of a set.

I think Enchanted would be a great opener

I still want to hear Belladonna someday; does anyone know if she's ever performed it live?

Those two songs go beautifully together....(and maybe it's because they're the same song! )

She can drop Dreams and Rhiannon because she does them with Fleetwood Mac. She just kicks so much ass when she does Stand Back that it must never be dropped either with F.M. or solo.

She can add, The Blue Lamp, Nothing Ever Changes, and How Still My Love while we're on the subject...

She performed it during the Belladonna tour.

I know I've heard versions on the web before, so they're out there.

I think OTR does a nice job of setting up the magical, dreamlike atmosphere of the show. The thing is, other songs could do just as well, plus be a novelty.

HSML was great even on TOSOTM Tour. NEC would rock in cocert!
And you're right, Stand Back gets Stevie moving, so it should not leave the set!

I would love for Stevie to sing "Insider" as a solo instead of a duet. I love that song as it is, so it would have to be great with just her singing it. I love the song "The Waiting," so that might be interesting. I also enjoyed her version of "I Need to Know" on the Stevie Nicks: Live in Concert (HBO Special). It was pretty cool!

Is GDW her usual solo tour opener? Anyway, I would absolutely melt if she did Belladonna live, I'll save that thought for her next solo tour .

If Stevie were to do yet another Tom Petty song I would choose "You Wreck Me." I'd love to hear Stevie really belt that one out, although I don't know what she would do with lines like, "I'll be the boy, in the cordoroy pants"...

i have a cd live concert from a fellow fan named jeff & it is the same live show they video-recorded the "white wing dove/bella donna" tour 4 HBO~ the 1 where her dad introduces her ( my most fav 1 HE HE), but the cd i have also has like 4 more songs than they put on the video, & 1 of them is her singing "bella donna" live & it is GORGEOUS!!!~ i could try 2 get it 2 u if u wish~ it is an awesome live show on video but the cd is so awesome, the setlist is:

Goddess6: sounds like an awsome CD you have there, I never knew she did angel solo.

Anyways as for Tom Petty songs, I'd rather her not cover any more, I can't listen to her doing Free Fallin' for me that's kinda like listening to someone else doing Rhiannon or Gypsy (I don't think others have covered these, if so I haven't heard them). For the most part I like hearing Stevie sing Stevie songs.
