At about the :11 sec mark, where she sings "I wanna wear feathers & lace" her voice gets just a little deeper and vibratto for the "& lace" part in a way that is so uniquely Stevie. Sometimes I can get on the bashing bandwagon when I think I'm all fed up with this fandom and then I will hear a little snippet of something new like that part in the song, and all of a sudden I remember why I have loved her for so long. No one sings quite like her-and when she's good, like this little acapella or surprises like Call On Me For Magic-she is really good!

p.s. does anyone catch all the lyrics she sings here? can you post them here if you do? or do we have the full lyrics anywhere? thx

well, calling this gorgeous based on this crappy vid IS very odd. After hearing the audio in Brian's thread in the Rumoursforum, I must say it sounds very pretty. But it is definately no song. It's a verse. With the wrong melodyline in a chorus, bridge or verse it can easily be butchered.

Oh in a positive view: with a gorgeous chorus, bridge or verse this can easily be gorgeous.

Sounds like:

I want to sing in the streets of the French Quarter
I want to dress up, I want to wear beads, I want to wear feathers and lace
I want to brush by the vampires that go down Bourbon Street

Yeah..would it have killed them to do the entire song?In exchange she could have let Lindsey do Love Runs Deeper.

It's weird how excited that 20 seconds has me. 6 years since i've heard new words written by Stevie has us all really thirsty. If that 20 seconds has me this excited a whole album would maybe send me into cardiac arrest.

yes, that's why part of me is glad the tour is, for the most part, finished. Hopefully, some creative juices will start flowing and she'll get the itch to record some new stuff!!

Thank you for posting this! Anyone think the vampire reference could be a nod to Anne Rice/"Interview With A Vampire"?

No. I think she got the idea from Tom Petty. After all she did cover the song herself: All the vampires walking through the valley......

Yea, as soon as I heard her say "vampires", Free Fallin' immediately came to mind.

hey guys...the vampire reference is about the l8 niters who do walk around in capes in new orleans...they are known as vampires by the locals...i thought it was cool that stevie was aware of this and put it in her song which i really like btw...i think it would have been a mistake to put it on crystal visions as that was all the videos from her career and this song is new...it deserves to be put on a new album or at the very least as a single on itunes...hugs pat
