You bet! And it took her a while to settle on a replacement (I think she went through eight or nine different heads in 1985 alone), but she seems to have been very happy with Carol Channing's noggin since 1992.

Your comment reminds me of 'Return To Oz.'

Stevie circa 2004, singing Sara onstage:

Yeah, but it's a very wholesome, down-to-earth kind of stoned!

I think the decapitation took place in another life, and now she's not able to throw her head back because of lingering memories of her death. Yet we've seen her pose like this both on the cover of Mirage and the Stand Back video. Oh Stevie - what tall tales you tell.

She does looked stoned, and happy there, even without her body. I don't think I have seen such a clear, close up picture of her face before. Thanks for posting it.

About Return To Oz... I love that movie! It has parts from Ozma of Oz, and the Magic of Oz, which are my favorite of the Oz books. Fairuza Balk was a beautiful little girl, and I liked her in that role.

Here is a decapitation poem:

Note On The Door
When the wind is in the East, the door is slow to latch
My hat is still upon my head, my head is not attached
My head flew off across the street and landed by a car
My arms reached out as if to say, “Head tell me where you are!”
“I see you arms, I’m on the road , I’m leaving you, Behind.
I find you coarse and needy, while I am more refined.
I’m striking out , I’m moving on , it’s easier this way.
Don’t try to speak, you have no mouth, there’s nothing now to say.
If I return I’ll look you up and tell you what I’ve seen .
And you can take me for a walk to show me where you’ve been.”
It tipped it’s hat and rolled away
My hands waved their goodbye’s
The body felt a little sad
But had no eyes to cry.
When the wind is in the West I turn toward the door
It closes very quickly, I don’t latch it anymore.
