Weren't We Getting Some Sort of Preview this Week - Page 11

All in all, despite some feeling things have been seemingly delayed. In the grand scheme of it all I think things are dropping at an appropriate pace now, other than having the song Secret Love too early, which was really what set us up for wanting more..more... MORE!

*Over the last 2 weeks we have gotten to hear all those pre-recorded radio interviews drip out - even while some of them were redundant - though the KBCO-Boulder one was pretty good.

*All the Stevie press/media references regarding In Your Dreams beginning inspiration courtesy of the New Moon scene that struck Stevie, reminded her of LFTM.

*The In Your Dreams album cover unveil this week

, and the Glee debut of Landslide, and all the coverage and trending from that. It would seem that right at the moment there is no reason to debut the video with all the press mentions Stevie is getting.

*And in less than 2 weeks Lily hits the stage for the Heart & Soul tour debut.

So really after the video debuts - probably next week b4 the tour starts - and the track list is official (of which we already have 12 titles anyway), the waiting is the hardest part. May 3rd is practically at our fingertips, just 7 1/2 more weeks

I'd say things are looking good after all.

In this attention deficit, instant twitter-verse age, I think it smarter to unveil things as close as possible to the IYD release date.

Btw I'm more xcited to see the *sizzle reel* that the SL vid at this point. I wanna hear previews of some other songs.

Ditto! Although I think the "Secret Love" video will be great, the sizzle reel will really get us pumped for the new record, what with scenes from the documentary plus new song snippits. Does anyone remember the length of time between the trailers and the release dates for "Crystal Visions" and "Soundstage"?

And another question - where did we get the posting of the full tracklist for TISL? I can't remember where we got it first.

I know it was our very own LukeA who leaked the snippets... I'd have to imagine he was the one who leaked the tracklist, too.

Nice (hopefully intentional) Tom Petty quote there! I'm actually listening to the Linda Ronstadt version of that song right now.

I agree with all of this except what I bolded. In my opinion, everything that has been going on lately, especially Glee and the Twilight mentions may have sparked some interest in casual/new fans who went and looked good ol' Stevie up on youtube. I think they've missed a huge opportunity by not having the Secret Love video or the sizzle reel on youtube. They definitely could have used the sparked interest to give people a taste of her new album in hopes that they may sashay on over to the Nicks Fix and preorder it, or at least buy the single, yet anybody who searched her probably only knows her new album is called In Your Dreams, if they even know that much.

I was reading that earlier. When someone posted to this thread I had an adrenaline rush. I'm getting sorta pisssed. Today, is new music day. Usually videos and stuff are unveiled early and still nothing from her. I'm soooo sick of false hopes with this crap.
