I couldn't have been more shocked myself when I heard the full song. I immediately teared up... it's been such an ugly, ugly decade... and we've had no new Stevie music to escape into. Honestly, this might just be the best single Stevie's released since Rooms On Fire (including the Mac). Even my other half totally digs the song... and Stevie doesn't do much for him. This is the reassurance I think we've all been waiting for for so long

. I can't believe what Dave did with what was a very lackluster demo. I can't wait to hear what everything else sounds like now since this is the safe radio friendly cut

.

After a few more listens, I do like the ending. It's haunting. Really cool.

It does also remind me of 10cc but I also was reminded of LB's new "Stephanie" that I heard over the pa's at the Unleashed shows - the ending on it was also very abrupt. A trend, I guess. haha

I think the song is better than Rooms on Fire

All of this.

But back to the positive - I know the cold ending seems abrupt, but I like it. I think it's dramatic.

Yeah, being a short song to begin with it almost sounds like this might be an edit and could go on, similar to how Planets goes off into this frenzy near the end on the extended version.

And, as of two minutes ago, I have my "instant" 7 hour download from WB!

But it's all good. It's STEVIE!

TrueFaith77 · #**340** 01-13-2011, 07:52 PM

If this were a duet with Lindsey, it would be GREAT.

Nikolaj · #**341** 01-13-2011, 07:52 PM

I have catching up to do with this thread- Can someone give cliff notes? IS the song available for full download now, or do you have to wait til February to get the download?
If it's only a short clip right now, I see no reason to pre-order a cd 4 months in advance of release, I think it's ridiculous. I may just do it anyway!
I can't believe I thought she'd sing anything other than freakin 'Stand Back' on Ellen. She must earn a ton of publishing by singing that song on tv every time-
It reminds me of a skit a comedy show did about Irene Cara when 'Fame' was a big hit single:

"Baby look at me, the girl who's on TV
Sings the same song ev-ery time
I'm sure by now you know every rhyme...
It's always The Same!
I'll sing this same song forever"

Me too! And they noted the cd should have been 12.99.

gldstwmn · #**343** 01-13-2011, 07:53 PM

Having heard it in full, I think it sounds great. She really should have done this song on the Ellen show.

I got a Planets vibe from listening to this. I think it was just the music like you said from the extended version that made me think that but at least I know that I wasn't imagining that.
