I must have super-hearing or something because I've always heard this, especially the "yearsh"

Power is generational. LOL but when I learned it was not that I could here the right lyrics.

ewewewewew! Does she really say Mick in there somewhere? Because, right before the first howwillwefeeltwentyyearshfromnow there is some other nano-second of something being said, which I can't make out and is not on the lyrics.
Makes sense in some weird way, because Mick's in the video.

Want to hear something bizarre? The first time I saw the video on MTV, I thought it was Nipsy Russell (and not Mick). Don't ask me why.

I've always thought this song was about Joe Walsh since they did brake up during the recording of RAL LP....she does state that she was so in love with him that she'd have given up 'her damned career' for him. So...she was posing the question 'How will we feel 20 yrs from now?".......at least thats what I sum up out of that song......she couldn't wait to see him and she loved him alot but it didn't work out.....but she'll always love him. (recall the demo song: She Loves Him Still....Joe ? maybe Lindsey.....who knows a combination of many past loves of her life?).....just some random thoughts...............
Guess only Stevie really knows......

David Letterman a while back said that he used to play that song because he could never wait to get her on his show, in the mid 80's. So he used to play that song. Or something like that.

Getting closer.

Except the way I was singing it wasn't like, real words.

Ooh, do you not like the Mick/Stevie relationship?

Plus, isn't it also printed in the lyrics/liner notes? I don't remember, and don't have access to the CD right now.

I'm not sure if I can here mick in the album version. But on one of the live versions I've heard before she does say 'How will we feel 20 years from now, Mick?' It might have been early on in the RAL tour but I don't really remember.

I didn't, actually. And I can't even explain why, to tell you the truth. I just loved her Lindsey, Don Henley and Joe Walsh affairs for some reason. Maybe it's because Mick does that solo on 'World Turning' that sends me to the concession stand (LOL!).

Seriously, my "ew" has no basis in any rational thought at all. I just have my own crystal vision of Stevie, and an affair with Mick seems to not fit in correctly. But, it seems like she has counted him as a great love in her life.

And who am I to argue about love? What's more magical and mysterious?

I've always heard the "Mick" in there, too. I put my headphones on and listened again real close to make sure, and I still hear it.

Do you ever look at the one you love and ask, "How will you feel ten years from now?" When I read through this thread all I could think is how will my love feel ten years from now? Will he still be my love? Will he be my friend? Will I know him? The thoughts poured and poured. I know that ten years from now if he is still there I would lay at his feet. I have never had a love that long. I am sure that I would be different. Less wild, more kind, and a better guy. I guess what I am asking is, How do YOU think your love will feel ten years from now? I think I know my answer. What is your's?

Don't blame it on me... Blame it on my wild heart...

[baboles]

I always thought she said "How do you resist temptation?"
