oooohhhh reaaaalllllly -

one of my fave stevie songs is actually a liddy song - go figure
- the love twins strike again.
i had no idea - i just assumed it was hers cos . . . well i don't know why really.

i have been totally enjoying this thread for the downloads and now i get extra bonus info to boot -
thanks so much

is it to early to start nominations for "Thread of the Year"?
I just checked Nancy's site again, and she's listing it as Stevie AND Lindsey as songwriters, so I could be wrong. I always thought it was Lindsey's song (but I can't remember how I got that impression).

Anyone know for sure?

Thank you so much to everyone who helped out in this thread, especially Nixxxed. It really made my day (and gave me something to do while I'm snowed in haha)

I'd still love to hear it.
That song could have been epic. It was even mentioned in a Rolling Stone blurb about Stevie's up and coming album, along with The Tragedy of One's On Soul...which is similar in "style". Obviously, it didn't make the cut. The tempo is a little dirge-like, and the lyrics....well, they are a little dicey...garbled, overreaching, and she never really hits it.

Her tendancy to use "he said, she said" in her lyrics, coupled with ever changing tenses really makes her lyrics uncomprehensable. That is my one big beef about her writing.


Here are the lyrics (as I remember/hear them)

The sky is not crying
No, he said, the sky is blue
I remembering saying that to a friend of mine
Him saying yes baby the sky is blue

And me saying you don't understand at all what I mean
The sky is raining, raining, raining
He who looked at me so much,
For so very long

Don't treat me like a stranger
That sounds like a song, she says
And I never put you in any danger
But you've known that all along

Well, he said, you could come right through my door any night
And I don't want to know about new people in your life
Let me make one thing in all all your dreams real clear
Now lets talk about faith (or fate?)

But he called me as I walked through the door
He ran down his long hallway
And I turned around for more
No, there is not as much laughter as there used to be
Not to speak of you and me

Don't treat me like a stranger
That sounds like a song
He said I never put you in that danger
And you've known that all along

No, the sky is not crying
Oh, yes the sky is crying
So were you, so were you

Don't treat me like a stranger
Don't treat me like a stranger

This was outstanding! It's snowing like crazy in Chicago today, so this was a good project... I have heard several songs that are "new" to me. Including Space Needle, Castaway and Blue Water which are GEMS!!!!! It's good to hear old school Stevie in 2007. Thanks to everybody who contributed, and to Nixxed who shared the gems with all of us... In a quite organized manner too!

Again, it really makes me wonder why she wouldn't release an album with 10 or 12 of these on it?

Okay, the amber song is really bad. "well her mother says here is your coffee and everything will be better". or something like that. But there are some real gems here.

That's like Docklands. Papa says wash the clothes, Mama says... or whatever.

the story I heard is that the night Sharon and Stevie met in Hawaii or shortly thereafter they wrote it together. so it's, what, late 79ish?

I have a fan edit that adds some chimes to the beginning and fixes some of the hiss.

I hope not, because I've got some requests:

No Light piano demo
The Tower piano demo
Smile at You - Tusk demo
Smile at You - Mirage demo
After the Glitter Fades piano demo
If You Ever Did Believe demo (there may be more than one, but I've only heard one, so...)

Probably others, but I don't remember what all I had. I seem to remember some other piano demos from the Bella Donna sessions.

I sure will. I've been downloading like a maniac. Since there is so much, it will probably take me a little time to get through it all. I've found that the quality on my ipod with my car connection is not so great so I need to listen with my headphones or my ipod desk speaker. But, if I do that, I get caught up listening to the music and not working. SO, (after all that) it is going to take me some time. But I will enjoy every minute and I'll let you know as soon as I figure out my favorites! Thanks so much again!
