Unconditional Love Appreciation Thread - Page 2

I know this is a "appreciation" thread and it is a sweet song if I'm not really paying attention to it. Cause the chorus blows with this lyric:
"The one condition of love...
Is there are none at all"

Ooohkay. Super lame choice of wording there. I understand what she was going for, but it's just sounds really dumb.

I have to say - that version posted by SapphieSister kicks ass - 10 times better than the SA version

...one of her worst songs and vocals, ever

Do you have Stevie favourites???

I don't know how anybody can have a top 5 list or even a top 10 list - there are just too many great songs to choose from

That's absolutely my favorite part of the song, especially on the demo version I posted. Her voice is so soothing and it goes along so well with the guitar strumming (of course they added more music in the album version so it doesn't sound as good).

BTW have I mentioned how adorable you are? (in addition to others who have noticed the same) And it's damn hard to notice someone else when they are standing next to Stevie but you are quite the looker. If I were straight and you lived in LA I'd be all over you like static cling.

I think that line is breathetakingly beautiful. I have also been lucky enough to feel that way about someone. So, it hits home for me.

I'm glad that line touches you, I love hearing that from fans. I think we all have lines from Stevie songs that strike a chord so it always interesting to hear what they are from other fans.

That being said I think this song is an ideal example of Stevie using other writers' material on her albums when it works. Some people have difficulty with the fact that she uses other people's songs when she has such a wealth of her own original music but to me this song is very Stevie and captures her essence. I can see why she picked it. While they may not be her words they are definitely things that she has experienced and wants to pass on to us. Even though she didn't write the words persay I feel confident she put them out their knowing her fans could identify.
