Do you ad lib?

[The Tower]

Stevie sez-

"Wake up in the morning, see your sunrise-
Loves to go down...."

Then I sing-

"You don't wanna see it..."

[Sugar]

I always add the "let me down again" line from the Live album whenever I'm singing Over & Over.

Wow, yeah, I do that, too since december 1980.

GREAT part, Great song, very good live.

I sing that too! I think it's a great ad-lib.

And I thought Stevie sings "little bit of fear" live? Someone says that's not part of the song. I know it wasn't in the studio track....

I believe it is on The Dance that Stevie says, "a little bit of fear."

As for ad libs, I wonder, I didn't see too many (if any) ad libs that people make up on their own...that they didn't ever hear, they just sing it. For example, on Everybody Finds Out, each time after the second "I know you don't agree," I sing, "but soon you're gonna find out." It's so hard to explain how it fits in there over here, but the beat would kind of go, "daDA DA dada DA DA!" I like it because it sort of alludes to the title. Also, on Fall from Grace, whenever she sings "you just fall from grace," she sort of does that run of notes on grace. Well, you can hold on to the first note she sings on "grace," hold it out, until it gets (I think) twelve or thirteen beats past that, which then there's just these sort of three accented beats that go DA DA DA, to which I go "FALL FROM GRACE!" So it goes something like, You just fall from gra-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-ah-ah-ah-ah, FALL FROM GRACE!" You can try it, it works, but again it's hard to explain on here how to fit it in. Also, on Running through the Garden, on the second chorus, I sing it this way: "Running through the garden, i'm running in brilliant colors, here in my garden where i am imprisoned." Just a slight change, but I like it.

Yeah, but apparently we all know it, so...but I hardly have any videos, and I don't have Mirage, and I don't have a bunch of stuff, so it's hard to tell where i picked it up, but suddenly (seriously, right this second) i realized i then must've picked it up from the Dance, even though it was not on the CD but on the video...not to say that all you guys couldn'tve picked it up from somewhere else, but I don't think I did....

YES! I forgot that one. I'm always surprised when I don't hear in on the studio version

Another one is I always tend to sing Dreams more like the version from The Dance - ...you know what you lost..."
