Nice!! It seems like she hasn't been on his show in some time...unless I just missed it. Guess she'll sing FWIW being that it's the new single.

My thoughts exactly, that would be just fab! Don't disappoint us Ms. Nicks.

Just please don't be Landslide OR Secret Love.

I so wish she'd step out of the box and do Annabel Lee. She seriously needs to rock out again on TV and that song would just be killer~!

Annabel Lee is great live! But it would make sense for her to sing FWIW because it's the latest single.

I have a feeling that song is going to tank worse than 'Secret Love'! The record company should listen to the &^%$(&@ fans on what the best singles would be!

Yes, but when artists do ask fans what the next single should be, that single usually turns out the be the worst selling single of the bunch.

Maybe so. However, I don't expect Stevie to have a hit single no matter what song they choose. I just don't think it's realistic to expect anyone over 50 (even 40) to have a Top 10 hit.

I just read that there is to be a new movie about Edgar Allan Poe.

http://popwatch.ew.com/2011/07/22/jo...con/?hpt=hp_t2

Director John McTeigue and the stars of The Raven, John Cusack, Alice Eve, and Luke Evans, debuted the film’s first trailer for the fans of Hall H today. Cusack plays Edgar Allan Poe in a fictionalized account of the author’s last five days alive, in which he must help track down a serial killer inspired by Poe’s writings. “He was a bit of a rock star in his day,” Cusack said of the charismatic writer. “He definitely was the godfather of goth.”

The dark and moody trailer definitely brought the goth, including plenty of dead and mutilated bodies, and — of course — screeching ravens. “It’s an art movie and a popcorn movie all at once,” Cusack said during the panel (moderated by EW’s Anthony Breznican).

And for all you Poe fans, Cusack had no problem answering which works by the author are his top five: the short story “Hop-Frog,” the poem “The Raven,” “The Cask of Amontillado,” “The Tell-Tale Heart,” and “The Pit and the Pendulum.”

The Raven will be in theaters March 9.

There's lots written about Poe--obviously this movie is not based on historical records about the man, but if you are interested in Poe, you might find this interesting:

including this:

"Not long before his death he was cruelly beaten, blow upon blow, by a ruffian who knew of no better mode of avenging supposed injuries. It is well known that a brain fever followed — that he left New York precipitately — that he reached Baltimore, the city of his nativity, and there died on the fourth of October, 1849."
