Stevie

[rubylounge]

From reading the lyrics of this song it sounds like Brian Wilson from The Beach Boys had a thing for Stevie. Was this song ever recorded? What was Stevie's response to it??


"Stevie" by Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys

I have adored you for so long
And the vibrations are so strong
You make me feel like I belong

And when the sun goes down so slow
Evening shadows seem to glow
I'm waiting here for you, alone

Walking closer in my dreams
Closer every day, it seems
Taking care of all the ordinary things

I'd wait for days to be with you
There's nothing else I'd rather do
It's such a special event, that's true

Yes, I know you're one of a kind
It's OK, come inside my mind
You might be surprised what you find

Wish there was something you would do
I'm waiting for your love to break through
'Cause, Stevie, I'd love to share with you

Have I been dreaming 'bout your song?
Why has it taken me so long
To say what's been so hard to say

Hey, you're just around the corner
You don't have to feel like a foreigner
Won't you come a little bit closer to me?

I'd wait for days to be with you
There's nothing else I'd rather do
It's such a special event, that's true

Yes, I know you're one of a kind
It's OK, come inside my mind
You might be surprised what you find

I have adored you for so long
And the vibrations are so strong
You make me feel like I belong

And when the sun goes down so slow
Evening shadows seem to glow
I'm waiting here for you, alone...

Someone referenced a Rolling Stone mention of this song a few years back on The Ledge.

"Stevie"
Brian Wilson
Circa late Seventies
Inspired by Stevie Nicks?

Brother Dennis had a romantic dalliance with Christine McVie, but he may not have been the only Wilson boy with a thing for a Fleetwood Mac beauty. It's been speculated that this Wilson solo outtake was written in admiration of Stevie Nicks. Full of vintage Brian romanticism -- "I have adored you for so long/And the vibrations are so strong" -- "Stevie" finds Wilson typically wearing his boyish infatuation on his sleeve. We may never know the song's true origin, but Nicks seems like just the kind of California girl Brian would dream about.
