if she is one of several artists, they won't give her more than 4 or 5 songs to perform... and i don't think she will turn her set into a depress-fest either... she'll do her hits, the ones i listed above.. as they are not offensive lyrically, and they are not ALL doom and gloom..

I posted a setlist and kept it with nice songs. I was going to put Stand Back and Rhiannon but it did not fit right for a benefit for the aftermath of a hurricane.

Landslide would not be appropriate!!!!!!

I just say that because she wanted to sing it for NYC after 9/11. Personally, I think it would be appropriate and moving. But, to each their own.

landslide has to do with natural disasters and hurricanes have to also.

I know - but that is so not the point of the song. I mean, then she cannot sing anything with wind, rain, etc. in it. Actually, that is most of her stuff

In that case would Storms be totally out of the question?

Edit: I appoligize in advance if anyone was offended by that.

I don't think Stevie should necessarily avoid wind and rain (the sheer impossibility of it is one reason).
I think Storms would be very touching, but too sad - and - she wouldn't do it anyways, so

I was actually going to put that in mine but I tried to put all the songs that would possibly be played. I am going to revise mine.

If were getting picky about things that are inapropriate for the occasion then I guess Drerams/ When the Rain Washes you Clean You'll Know is out

I don't know how well that would go over if she did a 3-song set of Dreams, Storms, and Landslide lol.

And HAEWAFY has the section about "And the Rain Came Down" Well thats the whole reason New Orleans is non existent now. Did homegirl write anything not about Rain or other natural disasters.

I can't imagine Stevie singing "Landslide" to a TV audience of millions at a hurricane relief concert. It doesn't matter if the point of the song isn't about a natural disaster. Most of the people hearing it won't know that, and it will come across as inappropriate singing about a landslide bringing someone down when there are numerous bodies floating around in New Orleans. Surely Stevie's PR people will realize that.

I think HAEWFY is the most appropriate song. Outside of that, it would be nice if she would find some covers that are relevant to the reason she is on stage. These televised post-disaster shows aren't just a rock concert to raise money; they are intended to bring people together and be a part of the healing process. I don't see how Stand Back fits in, myself.
