- Shadows Of Love (The Dance demo)
- So Far
- Thunder

Some of these titles are....interesting

If Just Like Jesse James is the Cher recorded version written by Diane Warren and Desmond Child, I would DIE to hear it! JLJJ is my fav Cher song. Idk why. I'm strange like that.

The fact that Stevie wrote a song titled 'Chiffon' gave me the giggles, I won't lie.

I'm reading all these titles and trying to think of how they might sound/what they are about - kind of weird.

Baby Don't Lose Heart (or a similar title) was mentioned in an news article many years ago. I recall it was a Bruce Springsteen song that was presented to Stevie. I believe that Bruce eventually released his demo/outake version on a rarities box set several years ago.

It seems that over the years, Stevie received many songs from famous artists who wanted her to record their work. Yet, she rarely did.

Yes, wasn't the story that the song was called 'Janey, Don't Lose Heart' but that Stevie changed 'Janey' to 'Baby' and Bruce didn't care for that, so asked for all the tapes to be handed over?

It's not the same song. In January 1995, Stevie's then-manager told me about the upcoming rarities collection for Stevie, and "Just Like Jesse James" was one of the titles he told me. I asked if it was the Cher hit, and he said, "No" and that it was a song Stevie wrote and recorded in the Early Nineties. (OF course, this rarites collection was never released).

FYI, other songs he mentioned on the disc would have been:

Violet And Blue
Sleeping Angel
Running Through The Garden
Blue Lamp
Just Like Jesse James
Gold
Love Don't Fail Me Now
Playing In God's Garden
... plus a few more he didn't list.

Other never heard songs:

"What Would You Do?" - Written by Stevie in 1999.

"Song For An American Prince" - Written by Stevie in 1999 after JFK, Jr.'s tragic death.

"You Like Me" - Stevie's version.....

"Poor Me" - Liza Jane told me in 2005 that Stevie definitely recorded a version of the song the two wrote together in December 1990 after the final Behind the Mask concert.

By strange Stevie coincidence, this afternoon I had the TV on The Real Housewives Of Atlanta, a show I've never seen before. The episode was originally aired on November 4, 2008. One of the housewives was going to record a song in Atlanta with Dallas Austin producing.

Dallas was showing her around his studio and told her:

"Everybody's sung in here: Madonna, Gwen Stefani, Pink, Stevie Nicks."

(I LOVE hearing people say her name!!!)

If only we knew for sure what songs Stevie recorded with him and what they sound like!!!!!

Thanks for the info! I can rest my mind over it. Too bad that project never came to fruition.
