She will sing, of course, Landslide and HAEWAFY - I mean they are show stoppers to most.

Having said that, I could totally see her doing a duet with Elton or some other legend.

What about God Bless America? Stevie might be good at singing that.

Stevie participated in one artists' rights benefit . Here's a list of other causes she has supported with concerts or guest appearances over the last 10 years: Arizona Heart Institute, Breast Cancer Coalition, Yellow Rose Gala (benefits Multiple Sclerosis), City of Hope, Thoreau Insititute, Robin Hood Foundation (targets poverty), KFOG Concert For Kids, A Very Special Christmas (benefits Special Olympics), Live In Central Park w/ Sheryl Crow (pediatric AIDS research), Andre Agassi Foundation (benefits underpriveliged children), VH1 Save The Music, Kids In Camp (benefits children with cancer), Center For Biological Diversity... this is not even an exhaustive list, but those seem pretty worthwhile to me.

On edit -- in addition she has promoted charity to tsunami victims, the One campaign, victims of 9/11, the Red Cross, and U.S. troops & veterans.

Somebody Stand By Me would be the best choice and most appropriate, if she decides to do this benefit. It would have to be a powerful vocal. However, it's a long long long shot.

What a great cause! I will be going with or without Stevie....I am going to try to coerce Marissa into going with me. (birthday present) New York is an hour and a half from me and any excuse to get up there is a good one.

Thankfully Taku's family is safe.

Thanks for posting the charties, Tiff. Stevie has ALWAYS supported charities from the very beginning. In 1979, she donated all her future royalties from Beautiful Child to Unicef. She might not be a visible as Sean Penn or Celine Dion when doing it, but that just makes her more classy in my mind. (Celine and Sean are classy too......)

I knew who he was married to but had no idea she was from the Neville family.

Sheesh... how much heartache and tragedy can this woman handle? She just lost her father and now this. I think it was perhaps a bit of an eye-opener- the magnitude of the Katrina tragedy compared to her own personal loss. I love the fact that she is putting on her brave face to do this rather than curling up in a fetal position (which she has every right to do, by the way).

I guess it goes without saying... I'M SO THERE @ MSG!!!!!
