Not that lucky. It was really kind of dull.

Guilty. But I didn't pay.

What was all that gibberish about 'The One'? I didn't understand half of it because there were too many people screaming. Did V say something like you end up spending your entire life with someone that isn't The One, and The One could be someone you were with when you were 15? And Stevie chimed in saying "you may be my love but you'll never be my love, it's so universal"? Okay, that last part I am not even questioning, because who else but Stevie says those things.

That was kinda funny. Then they both joked about being "Debbie Downer".

What on earth is Stevie wearing? Looks like some sort of XXL t-shirt or something. Did she just finish doing work in the garden?

She just got done pruning the chiffon vines and gathering bushels of sequins.

Then again, I haven't reached 40 yet.

She had Lasik back in '94 but as you get into your 40's a lot of people need glasses that magnify the print. Over the last year or so my vision has changed so that it's hard for me to read things close up. And I wear contacts and have 20/200 vision uncorrected.

Yes, I am aware of all that. And I know they have varifocal contacts also. But it seems odd to me that you would wear contacts when you are only nearsighted, and since Stevie had her eyes corrected more than a decade ago, that's all she would need.

I really enjoyed that. I will definitely be buying Vanessa's new album. I hope Stevies vocals are on it.

Stevie may have had her eye's corrected but I still don't think she can see too well. She trips over too much stuff. She probably could wear contacts all day and improve her vision. I seriously do not think she just needs them for reading......although she obviously is far more nearsighted. I think she looks cute in her eye glasses but I am not a fan of the frames she has been sporting lately.

I am still dying over her moaning in this song. It sounds like ****. Vanessa is extremely talented though and has a gorgeous voice.

Negative stuff aside, Stevie looks great! And it's really cool that she showed at the Roxy.

I agree..the back up was low and tentative. Why bother.

it bummed me out too. like a bird with a broken wing.

OMG, Can it be? Stevie is stepping out of her comfort zone.
You have to admit that was a treat. Granted you can't hear Stevie all that well, and hey, she just learned the song not that long ago and it looked like it was impromtu sort of. I have to give Stevie a lot of credit for that.

And I am sure it will sound much better and richer and fuller on the recorded version. I for one will buy the CD just for that song. You can really tell that Stevie has taken Vanessa under her wing and wants to support her. That says a lot. Not too many singers do that now days that I am aware of.

Yay! Stevie back in the studio. Maybe this will be the start of some new stuff down the road.
