violet and blue

aleuzzi · #1 07-01-2008, 02:16 AM

someone mentioned violet and blue in another thread and I froze in my tracks. I'd forgotten all about this AMAZING song, which I loved so much when it first came out. Why oh why did I forget it?

I just tried to purchase it on I-tunes but it's not available! Ugh! Does someone have an Mp3 of it?

That happens every so often...As a matter of fact, I haven't thought of that song in a while either. Such a great song...sorry, I don't have an mp3 of it.

Unusually, it's on the UK iTunes.

I think the rule on this board has always been we're not allowed to post commercially available songs, but I guess it's up to Michele.

But you know, I always find it baffling why any Stevie fan wouldn't own the Enchanted box set. It's pretty much a must-have imo.

I agree the Enchanted box set is a must have, just its so hard to come by, and when you do [say in FYE, etc.] the price is outrageous!
Then on eBay you can find it, but either shipping is horrible, some stuff is missing out of the boxt [-.-]. or you get outbid at the last second.

Plus in my opinion the only disc that is a must have is the Third with the rare stuff, the other two are basically just her CDs on another CD...

But anyways, Violet and Blue, I have never heard this song. ever.

oh and aleuzzi...what you could do to get it on iTunes, is send in a request to apple.com. I did that with the Enchanted box set. I would like to just get a few songs off of it, and you can write that in the 'comment' section of the form.

Here's the link to Apple's site if you want to send in a request to the US store.

It's not that expensive or that hard to get, it's $27 on Amazon (although there's a few weeks wait for it) and as little as $18 on Amazon marketplace for a new copy, which you would get right away.

http://www.amazon.com/Enchanted-Work...4919249&sr=8-1

The other two CDs do have some rare stuff too, different versions of the Street Angel tracks, Edge Of Seventeen live, I Can't Wait extended, Garbo and What Has Rock N Roll Ever Done For You.

Honestly, try Amazon marketplace. I use it all the time and have never had any trouble. I sympathise that you just want a few tracks, but given Stevie's recent comments about fans sharing her stuff, I don't really want to prove her right.

Actually, I was in Sam's the other day and they had the Enchanted boxset for $25 new and I about $h!T myself. And I've seen it in several places like Hasting's used for around $30.

Btw, Violet And Blue ROCKS!

I sent a PM to trackaghost about amazon, havent gotten to look yet. There aren't any Sam's around me...well a BJs, and I have no idea what Hasting's is...I live in the middle of nowhere

lol., but Those prices aren't bad. Just at FYE its like 50 bucks for a new 3 disk set. I find that outrageous. [sp?]

I guess its all about where you look.

What Has R-n-R ever Done For You on the Boxset???

BrokenHearted · #9 07-01-2008, 10:45 AM

^ I think trackaghost meant One More Big Time Rock And Roll Star...

IKV Nexis · #10 07-01-2008, 11:23 AM

Looking for Violet and Blue. it is also avaliabel on the movie soundtrack Against All Odds. Might be cheeper than the box set if you can find it.

SmileAtYou · #11 07-01-2008, 11:37 AM

Maybe there's a loophole. If you post an alternate/demo to the one that was made commercially available... then it isn't actually the same song, right?

I'm pretty sure I bought my Enchated box set on Amazon. And it may have even been the marketplace. I think it was under $25. Always check Amazon. They have the best prices, generally, if you don't want to mess with an auction on Ebay. Plus, if you spend over $25, shipping is free. That doesn't apply to the marketplace, but shipping there is usually only $2.98. Shipping on Ebay is usually higher cause that's where sellers make part of their profit.

Enchanted box set is a must have. Buy it.

Thanks, I will check UK I-tunes! I wholeheartedly agree with the policy and just wanted access to the song. Can't wait!

I have a question about UK iTunes...
If you have an account on iTunes USA, but you sign into the UK one, could I use my account money to buy songs?
I would just get the few I want for a few dollars...

I can't beleive that UK iTunes has Enchanted, and the USA doesn't...wtf?
