My Heart in Vegas

diamondsnake · #1 04-06-2005, 10:00 PM

I love this song more then words can describe (can't we all relate to these lyrics at one time in our life: my eyes still close when someone speaks your name, my heart still stops when I stand before you, etc.) Anyways, do you think there is any chance she may do this in Vegas? I know it is a really long shot but if she does anything new I hope she does this song. I really can not wait to find out what songs she will be doing in Vegas.

It's never even been released.

She must have been unhappy with it for some reason or another if she didn't release it on TISL (thankfully), so I don't think she'd ever perform it live. She was scared ****less when she did the new songs from TISL on that tour and those were songs that she had just put out. I can't foresee her taking such a risk.

I just want her to resurrect Sable On Blonde.

Really, you think she was nervous about doing new TISL songs? Didn't she perform one for the Grammys or something?

She certainly feared new SYW songs. I still wish she would have done RTTG more then just that one night. And in the DR doc you can see that she was practicing Illume and Everybody Finds Out. Why didn't she do one of those live?

As far as EFO goes, I think it was difficult to transfer to the stage because it is so heavily produced in the studio. It may just not have worked. I hope she will do it someday, but I doubt it.

I highly doubt Stevie would do an unreleased demo-- My Heart-- at her Vegas shows.

I could see My Heart being the single/new song for this "rumored" greatest hits compilation that may or may not be coming out in 2005 that Stevie may or may not be touring to support (thanks for keeping us fans in the know, The Nicksfix

).

If so I could definitely see her doing it in Vegas!

The Blockbuster Music Awards, and she was (nervously) shaking her dress so much it's a wonder she didn't tear it off. Of course, I thought she nailed it and by the end of the song, it seemed clear she did too, from the way she high-fived Sheryl and walked off the stage like she owned it.

'My Heart' in Vegas? To borrow from the book of Diss, monkeys will come flying out my butt before that happens. It would make no sense... for all Stevie knows none of us have ever heard of it. She seems reluctant enough to try new songs that have been released, let alone throwaway tracks from a previous record.

My Heart in Vegas?? No way.

Back when she did Gold and Braid...she was more willing to try new things, be flexible, loose...now? Forget it. Even if she had the guts to try something like that it would be dropped after the first night or Stevie would only give us a half ass performance of it from lack of confidence and nerves.

Someone said ,and I think Stevie said in that Jim Ladd interview that the Vegas show HAS to be under and hour and half, so I dont see he filling the time up with an unreleased demo...I would be willing to bet money she doesn't do that song..lol. Plus IMO it's not that great of a song

At least there's only a couple of them, now. And one of them is more for planning purposes....

Let's look at it this way: is Stevie going to perform a demo of a song she deemed not good enough to go on her last album, taking into consideration she's never performed unreleased stuff before (unless it was just about to come out) and rarely even performs a lot of album tracks, let alone B-sides? Yeah right. Not only will she play My Heart, I bet she performs At The Fair, Night Gallery and all nine minutes of Castaway too. And she'll dedicate it to all of us who illegally download her songs from the internet.

I'm so smitten.

But you're leaving out Mabel Normand. She's totally gonna rock out to that baby.

Christopher is 16 and an excited new fan... I say let him ask whatever question he wants to ask. No one has to reply if they don't want to.

I'm so sorry.

I just thought that My Heart seems like it would be good live song. And I sort of started the thread hoping to spark some interesting conversations about "My Heart", since I love the song to death. I'm just really excited about going to Las Vegas, it seems like a lot of the people who aren't going keep getting upset by the amount of Vegas threads. I guess I should have taken that under consideration.

I don't like it. Too melodramatic and Streisand-esque for my taste. The music simply slaughters it. I can see why it was left off of TISL.
