"My new album, 'In Your Dreams', is my masterpiece! I think it will be out by the end of 2011, or whenever my brother Chris finishes designing all the photo inserts and fonts."

I thought it was very interesting how the story evolved from a few sentences to a full blown monologue by the end of the tour. Although like you, I loved hearing it each time.

I don't know why but it bothered me when she muffled "Let's Get This Party Started" during Unleashed. If I never heard that again that works for me.

She said this in Connecticut on last years 'This is Not A Tour Tour.'

I wish she would omit the verbal crutch "thing" from her vocabulary. If she's the poet she thinks she is, you'd hoped she could find more descriptive words. Even in her lyrics, she sometime uses weak generic terms, where a better word would strengthen the lyric.

That bothered me too for some reason... it just didn't sound natural and I kept thinking - is this what my Stevie/fairy godmother/soul mate/sister of the moon calls a party? Must be...cause if she's using the weird muffled voice, she means business!

I wrote this song in colorado and it was a time where Lindsey and I were not sure what to do next should i be in the business or back to college, well you know Lindsey and I were like married you know. And we got to taste the finer things of life recording in a big studio making a record to have it just be dropped as soon as it was released was like were back at square one you know and Lindsey and I were like married you know i did stupid jobs so he can practice day and night and to get us to were we want to be its alright for me to do stupid jobs because it was fine.

Here it goes..."This next song is from our new record Say You Will...it's the song itself, Say You Will..."

a bit awkard but Stevie may it sound charming nonetheless

Oh, I also don't want to hear Stevie talk about how we can all save the music business by going to cafes and having a revolution. WTF was that nonsense all about??!

Kind of like...who cares...shut up and sing?

I really dig her rambling...she get excited...and its neat because you see and hear the woman...in all her hilarity, oddity, human...emotional, loving etc...the person that keeps writing for the things money can't buy?
Stevie, to whom do you cry...when people are unkind? And yet you still dance across the stages of the world...Sweet Girl.
