Seven Wonders...Sara????

[Lala]

Is she saying Sara between the chorus and the second verse and again between the chorus and the third verse(?...i think that's where it is)???

She says something and from the first time I heard it I thought it might be Sara. After all it is my name. Anyways...thanks for any answers. I'm preparing myself to feel dumb when someone replies..."Well, actually she's saying ______"

[The Chain]

Don't get people started on this

Some think she says "pharoh", which I have to go with, considering, it's about the "Seven Wonders", ...but that's just my oppinion

[Nixxxed]

I've always thought she was saying "Tara", as in Scarlett O'Hara's mansion in Gone With The Wind -- especially since she references Scarlett in "Welcome to the Room ... Sara."

If I'm remembering correctly, there was some mention of this connection in one of the reviews of TITN at the time (maybe Rolling Stone???). It was fairly negative as I recall -- something to the likes of making fun of Stevie's GWTW fantasies. Let's not forget the original/unreleased "Stand Back" video...

I always thought she was saying Sara... On my karaoke machine it says "Seven" (the graphics say seven), but those aren't always accurate.

I always thought it was "Ever - Ever." I do not think it is Pharoh because I do not hear that shound(s). It could be Tara, but again, I just hear "Ever." One more ? to pin her down on in my interview

I don't hear shounds, either. The H must be silent, eh?

She sings Erin who was/is a friend of Sandy Stewart (she wrote Seven Wonders)

Wow - I never heard about that reference. Did Stevie or someone else say that? Otherwise how did you figure that out - I certainly never would have

[ryan8472]

I'm listening to Seven Wonders right now. It sounds like"Tara" to me (which is what I always assumed it was).

I too thought she was saying Sara but lately it has sounded more like Pharoh to me. If I ever meet her I will ask her that.

OK, you know you're a Stevie fan when...you're debating a lyric in one of her songs and the possiblilities range from "Erin" to "Pharoh!"

I agree - I've always heard "Tara."

[DownOnRodeo]

I twisted my brain into knots over this one (hmm lovely imagery there) but think I ended up deciding that she sings different things. Sometimes its 'Never' and sometimes its 'Tara' or 'Sara' or what sounds like 'Pharoah'.
