No but I saw it on youtube, it may still be up. Not sure. You should check, though.

I think the flames on the screens they used for FFG are being recyled on American Idol.

I think it's somewhere on YouTube. The audio kicks ass. What power! But Sheryl being there? Er ....

Sorry -- she pales in her shadow! But then again who doesn't?

you know, I've noticed that whenever Sheryl sings harmony with Stevie something is just off...like Sheryl can't find her part. this is a good example. but I love that "wahwahwah" part at the breakdown of this song...and it amazing during this performance.

damn, this song should have been remixed!!!

Definitely. In Sorcerer, too. On her own she sounds pretty good, but next to La Nicks she sounds very shrill and out of tune [I think I may get slammed for saying that!]
As a production team or as two songwriters maybe they work well together. But their voices to me seem totally incompatible.

I think studio tracks sound fine...but live she just doesn't cut it. I think Sheryl has the potential, but just can't find that harmony without creating dissonance (sp?).

Wow, I think they sound great together in general. I don't like Sheryl much, or not like her much, but I like her when she sings with Stevie. Better than her shrill, over perfect sounding backup singers.

I love Stevie's voice in harmony with pretty much anyone, including Sheryl. FFG at the Blockbuster awards is damn fine, IMO. But nothing beats them doing "Difficult Kind" at the AHI Benefit. NOTHING!

I hate her "over-perfect-sounding" backup singers. They are not good! Their vocals are too dated and shrill. I think Stevie sounds best with male backup singers like in "Real Tears".

Ah! Yes. Stevie's backup singers are great singers, but I often long for a voice that is a bit rougher like Stevie's. However, in the past her backup singers have been dynamite with her. Mainly when Stevie's voice more closely matched theirs, a la "Nightbird". That SNL performance with Lori is amazing.

Oh, that's too bad. I'd never seen that before priest put it up on youtube, either. It was fierce, that sucks I can't watch it again.

YOUTUBE!!!!! *shakes fist*

My memories of this version of the song:

I played it for my then-roommate and I noticed he was playing air guitar after the first chorus (he had done so for the studio version as well), but unlike the first time, he specifically remembered doing so for this live version. He was very much taken with the power behind the song and even suggested I call Stevie's A&R people to get them to make "Fall From Grace" the next single and have that be the video.

I played it for my friend Nicole and she literally applauded after Stevie twirled at the very end of the song. She likes the twirl!
