You think? Didn't you hear it??

Completely changes the meaning of the song once I figured that out. "You just had to fall..." What is she talking about? It's something she remembers, but is it someone falling as in falling from grace shamefully or tragically? Or more like falling for someone...falling for her?

Man. Gooseflesh every time!

The question was if this was a chorus or bridge that was played in the snippet---I'm not sure if it's a chorus or a bridge (it sounds more like a chorus but Stevie's songs are not structured like traditional pop songs---they are poems set to music)--I just remember the song building like this at the end. It's a pretty long song. I was not enamored with this song when I heard it.

Well... we only heard the lyrics that Dave wrote.

well, regardless...

They sound awful together in my opinion. His voice is profoundly unpleasant.

She said she really thought this was a hit. Maybe on the country charts but not pop (that's my opinion).

She did say she felt the lyrics were sort of Beatle-esque and once she said that I kind of got it. I at least appreciated it more. If John Lennon wrote a lyric like that, no one would complain, right?

I don't think you could say that to John Lennon!

BUT isn't some rule in writing not to follow descriptive words like faster and deeper with those same danmed words!
Yes. Faster than a fast car? Deeper than a deep well? That's redundantly redundant.

Fall in love. or maybe we'll find in the context of the song/lyrics that the object of this desire was building up walls and afraid to commit or fall head over heals committed.

Agreed! I don't care how good the singing and music are, with lyrics like this...I'm trembling about the next line... and the one after that.

I guess I just don't get it. Everyone has a right to there opinion, but at least those lyrics are coherent. I mean as someone who remembers when Rumours came out and has followed her career over the past thirty something years, I think those lyrics are fine. At least it's not pieced togother dribble. It amazes me what people latch on too and hate. Then again, there are people on this board who cannot believe I hate Blue Denim and Two Kinds of Love or Street Angel. To each his own, but I think that song has a great chance of getting her and Dave some very positive attention.

It's on Amazon too so I'm starting to think that this really is the final tracklist.

Wow, it is the final then. I don't think I've ever seen amazon change a track listing before, so it's gotta be. I hope we get previews.

Amazon listed the title of Crystal Visions as "Reflections" before it was changed at the last minute by the powers that be to "Crystal Visions"... just sayin'

I know - why does it matter? We'll all find out in a month.

Yes, but that was before Amazon had the album art up with the track list.
This must be the final IYD track list. Only 4 1/2 weeks left. Time is beginning to fly.
