yes, but not really. it's something i don't happen to care about, but i can see how people would... just cause people seem to care about everything. I'm all for any footwear that can make stevie move better. that's all i'm saying.

Back in the day when I spent a lot of time listening to music loudly through headphones (all hopped up and no place to go) I remember thinking listening to it that way you could clearly hear the T sound. Oh yeah-I f*cking love that song and the voice/delivery of the last "oh well if I hope and I pray Maybe it might work out someday". Surprising and a shame that song wasn't top 10!

Hello, thank you. favorite part. FAVORITE PART! hehehe. The whole vocal is so debauched, and therefore heartbreaking. Top five, for sure.

Unfortunately.

It would seem the move to orthopedic S.A.S. should've caused a sharp increase in mobility. Perhaps Stevie doesn't realize in her twisted, through the looking glass world, where the "the answers to your questions lie sleeping in your dreams" and where "big is not necessarily tall", that smart footwear is not necessarily mobility increasing. I think maybe she'd be better off wearing the platforms but just remember to drink milk everyday !?

well, sure, but she is only 5'1" And the difference in comfort between platforms and heels is immense...believe me. i think she should have flats.
"oh, the humanity. Stevie in flats? Unthinkable!"

When she was in her 30s & 40s, she used to keep her platform boots on all the time -- onstage & off -- because she said they were so comfortable.

I don't believe I ever recall hearing of her wearing the platform Reeboks on stage until she injured/broke her foot on that little Millennium Tour she did.
I wonder if it never healed properly.

Offbeat question... would years of drug abuse mess with your bone density? Of course, middle-aged women often have to contend with bone density problems regardless, so I guess that wouldn't matter.

"With a broken foot in 1989, Stevie had to start her The Other Side Of The Mirror tour wearing platform Reeboks, but did switch to her trademark boots after the foot healed."

You know what... a friend of mine in high school had told me at the time about hearing that on the radio, but I've never read an article or review that mentioned it, so I always wondered if perhaps my friend had been mistaken.

Thanks for the confirmation, Jason!
