There's an old folk song Annabel Lee, too, with a different melody, I guess. It's in my compendium folk song book.

YES...and it's for this reason, that I think "annabel lee" might not be a bad idea for the album title. It's unique, it's "Stevie" without being *too* "Stevie" ("In Your Dreams"...no thank you), and conjures up such imagery and character when you take the song lyrics into account.

Agreed.
Oh, I do hope Stevie is on a moonlit beach wearing a black lace dress and a funeral veil. Sad Gothic Stevie? Yes please!

Love this idea. I could totally see them using that theme.

I don't think Annabel Lee works as a title--too confusing. There would be concern people would assume Annabel Lee was the artist. Maybe she would use a lyric from it, though: "Kingdom by the Sea"?

Bella Donna...Annabel Lee - I can see it...

By the way Waylon Jennings recorded a song called Beautiful Annabel Lee on an album in 1966. It was written by the lengendary songwriter, Harlan Howard.

Maybe it's nothing, but Dave referred to the 'Stevie Movie' as 'Tales of Mystery and Imagination'. Wouldn't that be an amazing album title? Annabel Lee would make sense with the Poe inspired title, and it would add to the whole gothic thing we've got going with 'The Ghosts are Gone' and the Twilight song.

Stevie Nicks - Tales of Mystery and Imagination. Oh yeah. I can dig it.

call me crazy, but due to the personal nature of the material...or so it seems...it almost seems like it should be a self titled album???

Hmm... This title might have been more fitting with Street Angel ;-) Not that Stevie had ANY resemblance to a large, bellowing, pasty white, blubberous mammal back then..

An ooooold friend of mine from college had those words on his CD that he recorded. I bought a copy, to show my support. It arrived at my work. I never allowed it into my home. And I eventually threw it away.
