....but I've been listening to If You Ever Did Believe a lot lately...esp for these lyrics:


Well one more night, I'd like to lie and hold you
Yes, and feel....
To make you smile I'd like to be there for you....

I thought for the longest time that the lyrics were "to make you sigh, I'd like to be there for you..." I was so dissappointed when I found out the actual words Right now, I'm REALLY into Sisters of the Moon

[1934mission]

Because I just got the cd and I love her vocal range.

Well, to be completely honest, at this point I am really not into Stevie or the Mac that much anymore...which is so weird to me. I first saw Steve live in '89 and I really became a huge fan of the Mac about 10 years ago, and I thought there was no way I would ever tire of them. I was completely into them...bought up all the albums, collected bootleg videos and tapes, downloaded demos, bought posters and LP's on Ebay...you know, all of that.

And now, I don't know. I mean, maybe I'm just finally burned out. I don't think I've put a Stevie or Mac CD in my player in several months now. I did see Stevie in Houston this year and really enjoyed it, but other than that...I don't know.

My tastes have just changed some I guess...even Pink Floyd who was my #2 band for years and years have kind of fizzeled. I think I was just SO into them that I ignored a lot of other bands...and now that I've gotten away from them some, I've discovered so much more. I actually kind of like a lot of the alternative stuff that is out now...and thanks to my new obsession with a certain movie, I have really gotten into 80's new wave/alternative a lot.

Anyway, I didn't mean to be a Debbie Downer or anything...and I still plan on seeing every Stevie and Mac show that ever comes to town...but I think I just need a break.

But, to the question at hand...since I am not "currently" into any Stevie song, I think I'll say that my all-time-ever-could-never-really-get-tired-of song would have to be...

BEAUTIFUL CHILD

I have loved this song since I first heard it...I had The Chain box set before most of my Mac albums besides GH...and a lot of the Stevie songs on there were so new to me, and so good, that I wondered how I had never heard them before. And I think Beautiful Child was definitely the top out of those. To this day I love it. And when she pulled it out for the SYW tour, I was STUNNED and so thankful it made the DVD so that I can have it forever.

Anyway, sorry for the novel I just wrote, and I hope I didn't put a damper on anyone's love for the band...just some thoughts I was having and thought I'd share them...I'm sure I'm not the only one who's become burned out at some point. Ahem, anyone else let me know so I'm not alone!

Have a nice night,

Brad

Space Needle........since i first heard this number, it cut me deeply. from the long fade-in, that ever-so-strange, water drop, chirp sound that I cannot identify at the beginning, the sad, lonely guitar part just before the vocals, it's just all too amazing. Darkness and loneliness closes around you and swaddles you in a protective emotional armor, hand hammered from a tough alloy of hopelessness and apethy. people looking on, unable to hide looks of disapointment, embarrassment and saddness, all of which fade into expressionless, everted faces of uncaring. The wounds of loss heal into emotional scars. Like scars of flesh, they are hard, stiff and only serve to knit you together, they cannot feel nor function in other way. It's just such a painfully honest look into her mind, I sometimes feel guilty looking in. Sometimes I have to take it off of the player because it hits me so hard and renders me functionless. It's like looking upon something so beautiful that you cannot look any more and must turn away. I guess it's all part of being hopelessly enchanted.

I get burned out on Stevie/Mac. I listened to nothing but them for 2 years straight, and this summer I actually listened to them very little. I started collecting Heart bootlegs and listening to alot of Zeppelin. But lately I have been listening to Stevie more and more. Strangely enough I have been listening to Rock a LIttle, which I never listened to much before. And in the months that I didn't listen to much Stevie/Mac, the one CD that would get occasional play was BuckinghamNicks. But I know how you feel

[totallycait]

My current favorite is an alernate mix of Rock A Little, where you can clearly hear the girls singing.

My obsession of the day 2day is Insider

[DavidMn]

Gypsy. It has been my #1 favorite song of hers ever since its release. nothing will ever top it for me

[Serendipity]

As this moment is now different to when I first asked, I'm changing my mind. Today, I am mostly listening to "Angel". I dont know why but I am going through a "Tusk" week.
