Got the full version with the preorder. I think her vocals are amazing! I rank this song very high in her solo catalogue!! I am beyond thrilled!!!

You know, I guess these early leaks are just the techno world we live in, and releasing singles before the album comes out.

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

.

As a fellow Austinite, I totally agree...great vocals!!

She should really do this song on the Grammys!

I hope it's a possibility.

It didn't grab me when I first heard it, but the production certainly sounded very modern and crisp. After hearing it a few times, it did start to grow on me. Far superior to "Every Day," and better than "Say You Will" too.

If this first song is any indication, we all owe Dave Stewart a big round of applause. He seems to have really given her a "new voice."

Just listened to the song. I like it. I'm sure it will grow on me even more as time goes by. Love the the lyrics and Stevie sounds great. I love the part at 1:45-1:56 sec. It really gives the song some added atmosphere.

That little guitar riff someone commented on a while ago reminds me of Book of Miracles. Just a little.

Did you guys notice the piano line from the original demo is in there. Right around 2:15 when she sing "We're already paying the price", it's like a little nod to the original demo because for just a moment it's just her voice and that electric piano we're all so familiar with. I wonder if that just happened or it's actually a little nod to those of us who have been fans of the demo for so many years. I made a remix of The B-52's song Legal Tender and while I layered a new drum track over the whole thing I did a breakdown at one part and let the original drums play for a few seconds because to me they were such an iconic part of that song. That's what makes me think that about this moment in Secret Love.

I'm really just buzzing today. This is so awesome. I love this soooo much.

All i know is that when I first downloaded and played the version that btflclhd posted it played all the way through at 4:20 .since then though it plays at 3:16 I don't have the WB version yet.

But did the 4:20 version end like the WB version...Check the youtube version, that's the WB version

What what what?????? What is this? Is it a new recording of the one from Buckingham Nicks???
