Stevie looked really good! I thought she sounded a little nervous. I thought she sounded raspier than normal. But it's really cool to see her at the Grammys and I loved the way they ended Rhiannon. I don't like Swift - she didn't sound that great. Glad to see Stevie was into her song though and looked happy. Loved that hug they gave at the end. I hope we can buy this on itunes.

I'm sorry, but the harmonies sucked because Taylor Swift was flat. I thought Stevie sounded good on Rhiannon, but it seemed to me she was trying not to upstage Taylor, but she should have IMO!

I thought Stevie looked and sounded good. But Taylor, yikes, she was definitely off-key and the harmonies on Rhiannon were terrible (but better on her own song). I never really took much notice of Taylor Swift before, I'm sure she's a good songwriter and seems to be a charismatic performer but she's definitely not a strong vocalist.

HOLY CRAP! Taylor was dreadful! Stevie why did you let that go on?!?!?!?! You shouldve just taken the mic from her! and WADDYYYYY good ol' Waddy! I will give her this much - Stevie has very high standards for her duets, so i do respect Taylor for that.

They sounded better together on Taylor's song - how cute was Butch Walker on the banjolin? He truly looked thrilled to be onstage w/ Stevie.

I know a lot of you are still wondering, "who the hell is Butch Walker?" Google him and then buy all of his solo records!

a little disapointed only because Taylor wasn't very good. But I was so glad to see Stevie.

NY Times Liveblogging is pretty brutal (but kinda funny, I have to admit):

Taylor Swift Performs With … | 9:44 p.m.

D.I.: Wait, Ryan Seacrest on a non-Idol broadcast? Nobody tell Simon Cowell! He’s here to introduce Taylor Swift, who is playing a guitar made out of a wicker chair, apparently.

I’m glad they engineered all her victories to justify the song selection.

J.C.: O.K., this is easily the worst Taylor Swift single ever. Like an funnyordie parody of Taylor Swift.

D.I.: Sad thing is, all the teens in the audience are thinking. Why are they singing about Rihanna?

J.C.: This explains the draping of Taylor Swift’s sleeves, at least.

D.I.: Who is out of tune? WHO???

J.C.: Stevie Nicks is trying very very very very very hard not to outsing Taylor.

D.I.: She is succeeding beyond her wildest dreams.

J.C.: So who brings out Lindsay Buckingham - Flo Rida?

D.I.: Yes, Stevie, get back on the tambourine. Away from the mic.

J.C.: Stevie’s having more fun than she’s comfortable admitting on this alt-version of “You Belong With Me.” I bet Chris Thile is MAD right now.

D.I.: At least she will some day provide Jennifer Coolidge a role to play in the VH1 Stevie Nicks biopic.

Look I thought Stevie looked really good. But those harmonies were a disaster. I thought they would sound good together. But Stevie sounded like Pazuzu from the Exorcist and Taylor sounded like a younger version that didn't know what she was doing. It was terrible. The worste performance of the night.

That was cool to see. When Taylor started and I saw Stevie decorated mic out there, I smiled hardcore.

I never realized that Taylor struggled so much to match pitch. It was sad. Stevie was cute though, although their voices didn't blend too terribly well. Hope Stevie is having fun tonight though!!!! I love that lady. Gonna go listen to me some Stevie. It's been awhile.

I'm afraid to admit that... I agree with every single word of this post.

Stevie's tambourine made Taylor's song better, never mind her voice. Taylor is good but not enough to sing with Stevie and it totally showed. I would've declined for fear of sounding just like she did. Stevie was good, though.

Taylor is an extremly talanted young lady, and yes she didn't sing great tonight, but she was also sing with Stevie Nicks! So I could understand if she was nervous. With that said, Stevie looked amazing and she sounded great! I love that woman to death
