She never totally stopped drinking, she was just off the Klonopin and coke at that point I believe.

I will never, ever, ever understand why they dropped Running Through The Garden or Destiny Rules from their setlist on the Say You Will tour. If those guys kept plugging those two songs, they'd be seen as classics today, in my eyes. Stevie just sounds fantastic;

Toally agree. I love this video. When i saw it i really wondered why it wasnt in the set anymore. Especially on the DVD...

I just spent 3 days in Las Vegas on business, and didn't see ANY promo for Stevie's upcoming show next month. I drove by Caesar's Palace and Janet Jackson was on the big sign, and the huge video screen showed clips from upcoming acts like Ricky Martin and Kylie Minogue, but no Stevie!

I finally went inside Caesar's because I just had to see if there were any posters of her upcoming show.....and there was not a single one. There were posters for Kylie and Chelsea Handler, who both appear weeks AFTER Stevie, but no Stevie posters. Why wouldn't her record company or management make sure her upcoming show and NEW ALBUM are being promoted at a place where thousands of people walk around?

I would just like to say I am so overwhelmed with emotion right now I can barely breathe! What a magical time to be a Stevie Nicks fan and with all this excitement around us we should all take a moment and thank Stevie in our own way and express our gratitude for the simple fact that she's the happiest she's ever been AND she's still got it! Who would have guessed our beloved gypsy would be back with such a vengeance? THANK YOU STEVIE!

P.S. To all you critics who wrote her off, kiss this!!

Very well put and I feel exactly the same, as probably most of us do. A few times this week when reading reviews or watching the Secret Love video I just became completely and totally overwhelmed with love and gratitude for Stevie and this new music she is giving us. Honestly, I never thought it would happen and certaintly not happen on such a grand scale. It's not just the wonderful music but it's the change in Stevie herself that's so very exciting!!!!

What a lovely post! I agree 100% with it. It's incredible, once you stop to think about it, that the same girl who was writing and singing Long Distance Winner (first song that popped into my head from B/N) nearly 40 years ago (

) is STILL making incredible music to this day.

Completely agree with you all. I've been a fan since 2003, so I've never experienced the release of new material, so this is really just too much for me. Just wish it wasn't the last 2 weeks of the semester!!

jellyman10 · #**234** 04-29-2011, 08:00 PM

I've been in the pub. But I just want to say that I agree. It is worth celebrating that Stevie is not just alive but THRIVING and - perhaps - maybe - ready to embrace new ways of working that will make her produce more new music in a shorter timeframe?? *needs a 'fingers crossed' emoticon*

SapphireSister · #**235** 05-20-2011, 04:46 PM

BUMP!

So remember I was telling you guys I had the opportunity to record something in the studio and I chose Some Become Strangers because I love it and have the instrumental? Well I'm about to get my chance and I've totally lost all my nerve. I mean half the reason I was going to do it was so I could post it here for your entertainment but does anybody really care that much? Is there anything left to say?

No really though, should I do it? I really can't sing but it would be fun right?

jkmaletic · #**236** 05-20-2011, 05:07 PM

Go for it , Lindsay! I would be interested inseeing/hearing it!

Gypsybecca · #**237** 05-20-2011, 06:08 PM

Lindsay, do it!

If not for yourself, then do it for the world...

jkmaletic · #**238** 05-21-2011, 08:03 PM

Random, but cool- I heard Secret Love being played over the sound system in an outdoor mall here in San Diego!

I'm completely blown away about how well they delivered that song. And Lindsey's guitar playing was so good! I wonder what circumstances took place for them to decide to drop it from the set. Probably Stevie's choice! The frustrating thing is that it's one the best live songs they performed from the Say You Will album. It was hugely missed opportunity. They performed it, what, twice? It should have been a staple of their set. It should have been on the Live in Boston DVD/CD. Tragic!

I will probably get hit by a rolled up newspaper for saying this, but I'm just not nuts about Stevie's current house (the big white Southern style colonial we see in all these IYD photos & videos). It just seems too traditional, fussy, and blanched of personality & soul for Stevie. It's a gorgeous home, no doubt, but it's just not the type of place I'd envision Stevie living. I guess I just expect her to live in something more whimsical and less formal, if that makes any sense.
