Could you imagine all of the long hours (and coke) they spent trying to pare this down to a 10-song collection?? Not only do they have to have "hit single" potential, the tracks have to flow together properly in sequence. In the end I think BD is about as perfect as an album can be. I feel like I'm 12 years old again gushing about this!

Anyway, my version of BD:

Bella Donna
Gold and Braid
Stop Draggin’ My Heart Around
Think About It
If You Were My Love

Sleeping Angel
Edge of Seventeen
How Still My Love
Outside the Rain
Julia

Bella Donna
Outside the Rain
Edge of 17
Stop Draggin my Heart Around
I Sing for the Things [the Uptempo demo one. not so fond of the RAL version]

Leather and Lace
Sleeping Angel
If You were My Love [I <3 this song. no seriously.]
How Still My Love
The Highwayman

I really think if she would have put Gypsy on BD that it would have just sucked. Without LBs production, it wouldnt have been the same, Lindsey Knows it, Stevie Knows it, I know it and you all know it too.

And Ive never even heard half those songs before

so I cant include something ive never heard.

Agreed. I can't bring myself to change a single thing about it. But I can reiterate that whomever owns those masters and that record now should remaster it and include bonus tracks. It's too bad it wasn't done for the 25th anniversary.

I'd add Sleeping Angel and if I had to delete a song to make room for it, I guess it would be Leather and Lace. But BD is a perfect album so it's hard to even think about messing with it.

Gold and Braid is a fantastic song live, but not sure it would come across as strong as a recorded album track.

In listening to the studio versions it didn't come across as well as it did live. It's a great live song. And Stevie obviously loved performing it.

The studio version called, I think, echo version - is splendid. I think you should post some of the studio ones. I do not have mine anymore

It's mind blowing looking at that list, isn't it? Hmmm.... let's see I wanna choose this one and this one and this one.

The absolute ridiculous thing is- take away the songs that actually made it on to Belladonna and you've got more than enough leftover for another album...

Gypsy
Sleeping Angel
Blue Lamp
The Dealer
Gold and Braid
Castaway
Lady From the Mountain
I Sing for the Things
All the King's Horses
My Love Never Gets Lost
Starshine
Sanctuary
Beauty and the Beast
Baby Doll
If You Were My Love
Julia
Belle Fleur
Rich Old Lady

With the idea that Gypsy made it onto Mirage and Beauty and the Beast made it onto the Wild Heart, here's my Stevie Nicks "lost" solo album from 1982 (in order):

The Dealer
Sleeping Angel
Blue Lamp
Lady From the Mountain
Sanctuary
Gold and Braid
Julia
Baby Doll
Belle Fleur
If You Were My Love

Why she doesn't release an album considering all the material she has (and all the stuff even the fan-based community doesn't know about) is really beyond me........

No shiitte!!!! Remember when Reconsider Me debuted and no one even knew about it

AND -

Taking off the movie songs and the live, but unreleased studio stuff (Sleeping Angel, Blue Lamp, & Gold and Braid) - - you'd still have a way cool if not slightly edgey record

The Dealer
Castaway
Lady From the Mountain
All the King's Horses
My Love Never Gets Lost
Starshine
Sanctuary
Baby Doll
If You Were My Love
Julia
Belle Fleur
Rich Old Lady

I have a question for everyone that put Gypsy on it. Based on the demos, do you guys really think that a Bella Donna Gypsy would have been better than a Mirage Gypsy?

I don't think so. But, then again, I didn't include it on my list, so I guess you're not really wanting to hear from me!
