Well, let's see - Klonopin for Sometime's It's a Bitch - but seeing as that was the title of the song, and not an impromptu rant during a live show, I don't see where you're going w/ the comparison of that to a coked-out-of-her-gourd Red Rocks performance.

Same here.

Anyone translated what she sings during Edge of Seventeen on Red Rocks, when she's crouched down on the floor?

That's what really puzzles me....

Drugs, drugs, drugs. It's always drugs. What, Stevie didn't do anything interesting that wasn't a result of being high?

Goofy, goofy, goofy ....

People were really angry, some sent me personal emails asking me why I would ruin the list with my comments...

This group is much more fun and lively.

This has happened on every forum since the beginning of the internet, even here. It's usually an isolated incident which gets blown way out of proportion that causes people to harbor long-term grudges. I've always thought it is silly to get worked up over anything posted online, especially if you've never met the person with whom you've disagreed, and had a real face-to-face conversation.

OK guys call me crazy, but I did a little investigation...

I went to windows media player, picked up no spoken word from red rocks
I went to:
- View
- Enhancements
- Play Speed Settings

I took the bar and moved it to 0.5

I played no spoken word about 20 times (for me its on 2:10) on the supposed "cussing part"
and this is what I made out of it

"not from the pages from the long god damn dang stupid book"
try that and tell me what you think

Edit: If you don't have this song on your computer, go to my site and download it (click on Red Rocks)

Here's another question... with as heavily overdubbed as 'Red Rocks' apparently is (I can't say for sure myself, because I've never had a chance to hear the audience bootleg that is supposedly from the same performance), why wouldn't they sanitize a string of obscenities uttered during the middle of a song in the process of recording all of the other overdubs?
Or, if "No Spoken Word" was overdubbed, why would she spout a string of obscenities in the recording studio?

Don't get me wrong, my world wouldn't crumble if Stevie is swearing there. I can cuss a blue streak from time to time myself, so it'd be hypocritical of me to have a problem with Stevie doing the same.
I just don't hear it.

And let's not forget the one documentary (www.allwearesaying.com), where she says "I do not want to be a half-ass rockstar and a half-assed mother"

It's not necessarily her first time, and I don't really give a rip if she does or not myself...but other ppl just seem to be like -GASP-

I just broke out the audience boot of Red Rocks and I still maintain she let fly with the "F" word. At least that's what it sounds like to me.

I decided to play around with the 'uncut' version in Audition (slowed it down and amped it). She's not cussing. For years I thought she was.
This is what I got:

I don't know how to learn it
Not from the pages
Well not that that that...well
From a book

[gold_dustgypsy]

Actually Dark Angel... you might be right!!

[Sahara]

Pulled out my copy of Red Rocks today and had a hard listen ...

I can't tell you what she IS saying. But she's not swearing as far as I can hear.

this is EXACTLY what I've always thought too. it's just rambling, but I don't hear any swearing.

not that I'd mind - I like seeing/hearing that part of Stevie myself.

[pwyll]

I don't think she is cursing in the song. She just stumbles on the words and says..."no no no no not from a..not from a book". ..She was a mess, but I hear no cursing.

[sparky]

I have always thought she tossed a GD and Mofo in there about the book. Always made me laugh.
