I sorta agree as far as radio singles go. Rooms on Fire is another one of Stevie's songs in A minor. It comes off a bit moody and slow buiding. This song leaps off the speakers in a happy friendly way like Talk To Me. TISL singles (POTU & Everyday) were good, but a bit muddy sounding, thats why I always thought they should have released Love Changes off TISL 1st.

I talked to that WB Sarah... and she said she just got confirmation that the downloads that didn't go out should go out now...

Got mine:

The ending we are hearing on the 3:16 version of the song is a cut off .It goes on for about another minute which is actually one of the best parts of the song.

i was just wondering about that...do you have the WB d/l version? is that where the difference is from?

My opinion of the song is improving. I still don't see it as a supersingle, but I think it's classy, and some of the things I didn't like at first seem more ok to my ears now.
Maybe I'm getting over the initial shock -the demo vs this version, and I can appreciate this one as a fresh new song.
The subtle arrangements (Dave's I suppose) are growing on me also.
This will be a very interesting album to listen.

I am getting some sort of Wilson-Phillips vibe from it--the song "Hold On" somehow. Partially the harmonizing, I think.

skcin · #**354** 01-13-2011, 08:19 PM

THis is hard to get used to after listening to the old piano demo for so many years. I will keep trying. The "ooooh-eeeee's" are bugging me.

Could be because Glen Ballard co-produced Stevie's new record. He produced and arranged Wilson Phillips records.

I didn't know that. Thanks for the info. Makes sense.

I adore Stevie. I just get so annoyed when she doesn't live up to her full potential.

I think you might just be right.

And this is after I've listened to the full song quite a few times now... this isn't just an emotional first-listen response. The sound is so fresh yet textbooks Nicks, and Stevie's vocals are probably better than anything she's recorded since the '80s. I'm just so very proud of her and Dave

WORD!

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

i love the "cold" ending. great word. def abrupt
it perfectly fits a kinda dark song that it otherwise "upbeat" lol
