Landslide - the song that will haunt us till the end of our time on this earth.

Honestly, I don't mind Stevie doing "Landslide" just due to the fact that she nails it pretty much every time, and being that "The Voice" has become a big hit TV show, it's preferable that she comes out smelling like a rose.

. Other than "Rhiannon", EO17 & GDW, almost every older song Stevie does nowadays pales in comparison to its original glory. IMO Stevie's current voice no longer does justice to the likes of the sultry "Dreams" or SDMHA. Even "Stand Back" has begun to sound forced & strident.

My only other dream song would be for Stevie to have the balls to show up on this show and do a duet rendition of her glorious new single "For What It's Worth"

But I'm sure the producers of "The Voice" want her to do one of her classics

I would just sh*t myself if Stevie comes out and does something unpredictable.

I think this could work if they do it in the higher Dixie Chicks version key while Stevie does the low harmony. I do hope I'm wrong and they pull out a killer version of FWIW instead. Not gonna happen though since it's not the kind of song that showcases the range and timbre of a voice.

Precisely what I was saying - I doubt he'd be doing harmony to her for the whole song considering that he's the one trying to win a singing contest.

I mean, I'm not saying they won't do it - it's very likely, Landslide is arguably Stevie's most popular song and given the recent success with Glee and all that jazz, I can see why they'd pick it... I just don't think that it's the most rational song choice, by any means, and hope and pray they go with something - anything - different.

Nothing against Landslide, because, no joke, it's probably my favorite song of all time, as tired as I am of it being performed hah.

Personally if I never hear Landslide- or Dreams or Stand Back- ever again, it will be too soon.

But for the general audience, who aren't HUGE Stevie or Fleetwood Mac fans, hearing and hearing the original singer/songwriter do Landslide may still be thrilling.

Well, you guys called it.

Landslide it is, according to Stevie's facebook.

"Stevie will be appearing on tonight's season finale episode of The Voice. She will be performing "Landslide" with contestant Javier Colon. The show airs on NBC at 8/7c. Also visit NBC.com for an exclusive video of Stevie performing "For What It's Worth" from her latest album In Your Dreams. Check your local listings for more information."

But yay for FWIW!

I wonder what the video FWIW will be from? The Wiltern perhaps? That would be awesome!

Good question. I was thinking it would be like Oprah, and it would be taped at the show and then just not aired and put online... but The Voice is live, right? So that doesn't really work.

Maybe. But they do rehearsals, so she may tape something during rehearsal for the online audience. Or it's from the documentary that's still to be released.

Ah, I didn't think about that. I hope she tapes something there.
