No More New Music???

RhiannonBoy · #1 03-05-2006, 04:15 PM

So what's the deal that Stevie may not release any more albums?? I know she's disappointed with the success of TISL, but it was so well received...I can't believe that it may be her last work! She's also really against downloading and bootlegs, but we all crave her stuff so much, that her real fans will buy whatever she puts out - Any news on the new Greatest Hits compilation she spoke about before starting the Aussie tour????

I don't think anyone knows what's going to happen, probably not even Stevie.

If you're waiting for new Stevie music, all you can do is keep your fingers crossed.

I think she was probably the most disappointed with the SAY YOU WILL album...I guess she figures if a Fleetwood Mac studio album can't even reach a million, then that doesn't leave much hope for a solo album--or getting a label interested in one for that matter..I still say Fleetwood Mac should've went to Interscope records even though they weren't offered as large of an advance, I think Interscope would've shown more interest in the album, with the Jimmy Iovine-Stevie connection and all.

In my opinion it's just people being paranoid. There's been NO real indication of this, just random speculation based on no real evidence and people reading too much into things. I do think that they'll have to re-think some things and maybe get a smaller label, personally, but as Mick says, "She'll be doing this for donkey's years." Stevie, if anything, has indicated in recent comments that she has absolutely no plans to stop any time soon.

Well when she says stuff like this you tend to think she's not much interested in doing another album :

"It's like, does it really matter at this point?" she says when asked if she is working on a follow-up to her last solo album, 2001's Trouble In Shangri-La. "Do people really want to hear a whole other solo record, when you can get one or two songs for I-Tunes? I'm thinking about a way you could just put out a few songs once in a while, maybe four songs that you loved, instead of having to figure out 16 songs, many of which you might not love."

about Say You Will

"I'd be totally lying if I said that record is what I wanted, because it isn't," she says. "I argued with Lindsey all the way through it, and he argued with me. It wasn't very much fun, and I wasn't that pleased with the music. I felt my demos were better, which of course is easy to say, but I did. And what can I say? It wasn't a lot of fun."

Also the fact that she says she hasn't written a song in forever leads me to believe she isn't exactly gearing up for a new release!

This isn't anything new. The quantity of releases has been declining since Timespace. Waiting is just part of being a fan of her music. I'd prefer that Stevie stop complaining about the state of the music industry and just make the damn music.

Yeah, and then when she says the exact opposite thing the very next day you tend to start rolling your eyes.

Stevie has hired a (not) new - oops! :blush: Publicist named Liz Rosenberg - who is or at least was Madonna's Publicist. That's ALLLLLLL i'm gonna say here....
