You've had many dreams come true, but if you were granted one wish, what would it be?

Stevie's answer:

If I had one wish, it would be for world peace….

What a laughably generic response! What is this, the Miss America pageant?

Generic, perhaps, but still a nice thought, no?

Maybe I'm being a little crabby tonight, but what else was she supposed to say? "My wish is to make another million dollars" Or, how about, "My wish is to one day eat pasta and bread again."

Of course, I guess if she learns to twirl a baton while it's on fire, she just might be a shoe-in for Miss Middle-Aged America after all.

Actually, those words are just what the doctor ordered this evening.

It is a laughable and cliche response, but in times like these (especially after the tragedy of last night, imo of course) it's an appropriate response.

Given our past discussion about how unsatisfying Stevie's Q&A answers are, this one stuck out as a prime example. Sure it's a nice answer, but how about elaborating a bit, being more specific? How about a little personality?

I liked it. Brief and effective.

Even though I agree with the answer and I think it's much better than some things she could've said, I still agree with what you're saying. Elaborating and actually showing that she has a personality would have been nice. My favorite is still the one about "Doing the Best I Can (Escape from Berlin)." Classic.

I swear she doesn't actually write these. This is not something Stevie Nicks would say (word for word) if she was asked if she had considered making a country album: "Yes I have, maybe some day I will!" Someone else writes them- trust me!

OMG - that had me in stitches...

That would be my #1 wish!!

I do think her answer is a nice sentiment...

I bet she said that. Stevie's been saying that very thing about doing a country album for more than twenty years.

P.S. For "country album," you could also insert your project-to-be of choice, like Rhiannon album, autobiography, children's book, etc. It's always "I will do that some day."

She should've wished to have her range and mobility back...
