Me too. This is why I love the Jim Ladd interview from '79 so much. My favorite part is when she talks about meeting the fan in Ann Arbor.

Some of you have already mentioned some of my favorites but I didn't see this one yet:

"When I say, 'Wild in the darkest places of your mind/That's where I needed you', I mean the things that you think about in the wildest places of your mind, that you don't ever tell anybody about. Uh, only the children lie hopelessly enchanted. That's how we are. Hopelessly enchanted. Wild in the darkest places of your mind/Don't blame it on me/Blame it on my wild heart. Yeah, that's those places that many people don't even have. But you see, my audience has it."

- Jim Ladd Innerview, 1983

I like this one too:

"I think that people are gonna love 'Wild Heart'...it's the one song that I go back to time and time again and listen to. There's something about the vocal that just gives me shivers, because it's just so real. People will understand that probably more than a lot of other things, because it definitely takes you through your nervous breakdown, and through your recovery and it takes you through your survival.

And everybody's heart is wild, so it's not like I've got any kind of hold on it, 'cause this entire album was written for everybody, and their wild heart. This was very much meant to be shared and given to people, to have them just love the idea that they have wild hearts, 'cause I love that."

- The Wild Heart Press Kit, 1983

Tusk, I would guess. It's from People magazine, 1982.

From an old radio interview on Nicksfix - an audio file - I think this is still there but I'm not sure - I don't currently have the software to listen to it so I don't know if it's still "up and running" or not - - I thought the way she phrased things was very interesting -

(I'm paraphrasing, by the way)

Interviewer: "There's a DARKNESS to your songwriting."
Stevie: "There IS, yeah."
Interviewer: "It's almost a SADNESS."
Stevie: "Yeah."
Interv.: "Does the SONGWRITING help the sadness, or does the SADNESS help the SONGWRITING?"
Stevie: "I think the SONGWRITING helps the SADNESS until the next sadness comes ALONG. But
I don't think I'm really all that sad of a person; I mean, *I* don't think . . . . . I am."

One of my favorites is from one of the master reels:
Guy in studio to Stevie: "You don't look 30"
Stevie: "I do when I wake up!"

Those reels were funnay. "I would luuuuv to smoke a joint."

My quote is from the 1982 Playboy article, btw.

[daniellaaarisen]

She's so freaking funny. But on a more serious note...

"I think if you are really into words and poetry and situations of life, there is always a little kiss of sadness on everything you do... It's just the kind of person who I am. I always look carefully beneath the outward appearance of things. I want to know what's really going on in somebody's heart."

Where'd she say this? I like it.
