barnes & noble exclusive track

Sarah · #1 09-18-2006, 02:41 PM

so yeah, i called my local b&n so they'd at least have one copy in the store (for me).. and i was informed they'd be receiving 2 versions... regular, then barnes & noble exclusive. also, my tickets for the nashville show have "cd available at barnes & noble" printed on them.

on the b&n website, this info is available:

Under the Skin [B&N Exclusive Bonus Track]
1 Not Too Late
2 Show You How
3 Under The Skin
4 I Am Waiting
5 It Was You
6 Try For The Sun
7 Cast Away Dreams
8 Shut Us Down
9 Down On Rodeo
10 Someone's Gotta Change Your Mind
11 Juniper
12 Say Goodbye / Stevie Nicks B&N Exclusive Track

(link here.)

so uh.. what's the deal with this say goodbye? think it's a live one? syw one? or just some sort of corporate trash - simply throwing stevie's name on it because oh my god lindsey couldn't possibly do something on his own?

if anybody knows, i'd like to know.. because i don't want a copy of the exclusive version if it isn't so exclusive. i'm not trying to hate, but none of my other lindsey cds have the stevie nicks stamp on them and that's just fine by me.

None of our Stevie CDs had Lindsey playing on 'em until 'Trouble In Shangri-La,' and I don't remember anyone crabbing about it.
Just sayin.'

I'm bummed that she's not on "I Am Waiting"... her backing vocals sounded beautiful, and now we'll never get to hear that version in full. That's a damn shame.

Yeah, who says he's being forced? Maybe he wanted it on there?

I think it was established somewhere else it was the Soundstage version...you have to admit that's a pretty damn great version.

That's just an added bonus for me

I rather have Lindsey alone in this CD, but then again, nobody is forcing me or any bodyelse to buy from Barnes and Noble. It's a curious move, I think, but then, Lindsey has done the Sounstage show with Stevie too. So in a way, it's expected almost.

I like the I Am Waiting song from the DVD very much but I hoping it is studio version in the Skin cd.

i'm going to go ahead and guess it's the same **** we've heard before.

thanks for actually answering the question, marissa. i appreciate that. i was thinking the same because i've not seen any buzz in the stevie news about it.

and johnny stew.. i can't speak for that, because i'm not much of a stevie solo collector. i am going to kind of agree with you on the i am waiting point, though. i'd rather hear her make an appearance on his cd in the form of a new track. he's talking an awful lot about distilling his new stuff to a certain essence and making a complete work.. i don't see how throwing a recycled FM song (despite the fact that it was intended on being his own only) keeps with that idea.

Come on, the whole musical concept he talks about fits perfectly on Say Goodbye, esp live. This album is NOT provided with that track, only on the B&N version. Don't buy the thing and do it with the original 11-track.

i don't either, other than the label wanting to make a few extra dollars by using her name -- which i believe, especially if barnes and noble is a corporate sponsor (which seems as such considering their name is printed on the back of your tickets). people don't buy a stevie nicks solo album to hear lindsey buckingham (other than us nerds, maybe). however, if this were some new song with the two of them, you know her fans would buy it just for that one song -- even if they didn't really care for lindsey as a solo artist. jmo.

johnny stew, if it were her version of i am waiting, i'd be stoked and would definitely purchase from barnes and noble to hear that. from what we've heard, i agree, it's beautiful.

Just buy the regular CD somewhere else than Barnes & Noble if it ruins your day so much. STOP FRIGGIN' BITCHING ABOUT IT!!!!!

i really don't think what sarah said constitutes as "bitching." she just started a thread to let people know about the "bonus track" and question whether or not it was new, live, or the same version we've heard since the release of say you will. perhaps you should stop being so goddamn salty and embrace healthy conversation.

chiliD · #11 09-19-2006, 03:22 PM

I'll "be" who I am.

Kelly · #12 09-19-2006, 03:27 PM

The label might have wanted to "use" Stevie's name but Stevie had to ok it, right? She doesn't seem to have a problem being on the B and N version. Say Goodbye fits in nicely with the other songs we have, IMHO, especially next to Castaway Dreams. (I don't mean musically.)

I agree with those who would have loved to have the DR version of I am Waiting......her vocals sounded stunning in the short clip we have. It definately enhanced the song, for me.

UnwindedDreams · #13 09-19-2006, 03:28 PM

If people have complaints about what people are discussing and are going strike to the thread starter about bitching and just add NEGATIVITY to the discussion, why do you even bother posting in this thread? Can we please stay on the discussion of the exclusive track and not bitching. Sarah's not bitching btw.

On topic:
I hope I Am Waiting with Stevie is the bonus track. Now Stevie can have Mick and Lindsey at her next FRIENDS show

Aren't ya glad you gave it another chance?

Well everybody prefering stevies vocals on I am Waiting from that short DR-clip is a bit weird to me. I love that segment too, but how can one prefer something over something else that not exist yet? None of us have heard a studioversion of that track yet. We didn't even hear a finished studioversionclip of the FM-version.
