Bob & Tom Radio Interview

Amlyn · #1 02-21-2011, 09:20 AM

I caught a bit of the Bob & Tom radio interview with Stevie this morning....at least until my webcast cut out.

Anyway, since there was a long discussion in another thread, I wanted to share that Stevie mentioned the Moonlight song and said that it was inspired by a scene in the New Moon movie and that she could relate to it (something that happened to her with a relationship and she hasn't ever gotten over it) and it made her think of LFTM and so the Moonlight song includes 2 verses from LFTM and and a new verse that she wrote in Oz on the Unleashed tour. She mentioned something about how she knew some of her fans had heard LFTM before cause of the circluated bootlegs, but she sorta just brushed that off. Anyway, she didn't say too much else about it, at least that I can remember.

As for the rest of the interview, she talked a little about how she got started with Dave back in 2010, then talked about how 2 of the songs are Mike Campbell songs, how she cowrote 7 with Dave, then she went into some flashback about "Don't Come Around Here No More", then brought it back to only working with Dave as her producer going forward -- solo or with FM. Nothing we haven't already heard in some way, shape or form recently.

What else, talked a little bit about the tour with Rod, mostly about how they don't know what duet they are going to do till they get to rehearsals in FL. About 30 seconds into that my computer connection went kaput, so i missed the rest of the interview. Oh, she mentioned something about emailing with Rod. I just chuckled given we all know it's not really her writing those emails.

Did anyone else caught this? I hope the B&T show site posts this. I know Nickslive originally posted about the inteverview, so hopefully they have a link or it will be available for download.

And so that is that. Stevie is known to regurgitate (for lack of a better term) phrases and verses in her songs so maybe someday she'll release a full version of Lady From The Mountain. And now I'm going to light a candle for all those who will be heartbroken by the confirmation of this news.

It could end up like Planets of the Universe - same song, additional verses. Although the chorus is probably totally different.

Kinda sad, actually.

LFTM is one of my top favorite Stevie demos. My initial heartbreak to the news that it has been morphed into "Moonlight" has now been replaced with sheer curiosity. Those who heard it at the Industry show a few days ago say it's really good. And like someone else pointed out, "Planets" got new verses and still ended up a really good song. I still think of it as an entirely different version to that of the "No Light" demo.

But I also think of "Goodbye Baby", which I was kind of disappointed at.

I guess we'll find out come May 3rd if Moonlight is worthy of the LFTM demo. I'm no longer sad, and actually looking forward to hearing it now.

Edit - I just read Karma's post about Planets...so yeah...ditto!

If they had left it as it was in the Destiny Rules doc it would have been perfect.

I love "Goodbye Baby" exactly how it is on the CD, I'm not dissapointed in the least. This is why it is sometimes good to not hear these demos for years and years. At least in this case, it worked out in my favor.

Artemis · #7 02-21-2011, 03:06 PM

I'm sort of really excited to hear how she's gone with this. I think had she attempted to just remake Lady From The Mountains, a lot of people would have been disappointed; myself included. I love all the brilliant wailing that she does in the demo; she couldn't possibly do that now.

So, it has two verses from Lady From The Mountain... Sticking my neck on the line, I'd say she might possibly use these two; (credit to BuckinghamNicks.net for the lyrics!)

You love her
But you love your life alone as well
But do you know the road
Or the reasons why
Well, if you leave her
You'd be losing the chance to stay alive
Well, the candle burns bright
Then the candle dies
Burning from the middle
Like a candle
Burning, burning
Hopefully learning

So go with her
You know that you want her
Think you could use a dreamer
I think somewhere on your side
And maybe
If that woman could make you crazy
Did she call out, did she say, "Please save me"
Woah, tonight
She says, "Tonight"
Tonight

Since it seems to fit in with the Twilight/Romance theme more, I can see them working out.

I'm inclined to agree, but I really just wanted to say I love your signature pics. They're always great!

I heard it on Saturday and I thought it was amazing! I will truly be shocked if anyone here is disappointed. Seriously.

From http://nickslive.blogspot.com/

"MOONLIGHT A VAMPIRES DREAM": The first song on the CD. Two of the verses were written sometime in the mid-1970's and said a lot of her fans have that demo already bootlegged... Was touched by the movie New Moon in the Twilight series, where he says to her "I'm leaving you because you're not very good for me". Said she had an experience like that a long time ago that she never really did get over. So when she saw that part in the movie where she's sitting in the bay window just staring out and it goes Oct...Nov... Dec... and she's not eating or sleeping, she thought about the lyrics, "Some call her strange lady from the mountains..." and the story takes place up in Oregon. So she thought these words in this old song were almost like I wrote them for this movie a long time ago. So she wrote one new verse and a chorus and she did that in Australia 2009 right after seeing the movie. It's her favorite song on the CD.

Now that has me very very excited. And intrigued.

Same with "Silver Girl"! Stevie's demo in that doc is 5000 times better than what LB morphed it into.
