Maybe I am just desparate to hear a collaboration between Stevie and Lindsey so this had me thinking....why does "Everybody Finds Out" say (lyrics, Stevie) when all of Stevie's other songs just say (Stevie)??? Could this mean that the music came from Lindsey??? I don't know but that would be cool. The official list says the same for "Running Through The Garden" We all know that this is a Stevie song.

I am also very curious about SILVER GIRL.....

SILVER Girl
and
GOLD DUST woman

Does anyone else think this is funny?? I hope Silver Girl is just as good.

Stevie wrote the lyrics to "Running Through The Garden," but the music was written by Gary Nicholson and Ray Kennedy.
(Gary Nicholson also co-wrote the music for "Battle Of The Dragon," along with John Jarvis... and Ray Kennedy co-wrote "These Strange Times" with Mick, for 'Time.')

Presumably the music to "Everybody Finds Out" was written by one of Stevie's usual collaborators (most likely Mike Campbell), since I *think* they would have pointed it out if Lindsey had written the music to it.
Would have been nice though.

GEEZ!!!! I guess we wont hear a collaboration AGAIN. I don't get it, they are supposed to be like "best friends" you would think they would write or collaborate one song.
I am happy that April 15th is getting closer.

I don't get this "music written by" crap. Isn't this Lindsey's job as a guitarist/keyboarder/producer as well as the band's?

"Running Through The Garden" was written several years ago (it was first copyrighted in 1992, though many fans feel it's actually a 'Rock A Little' era track).

As for "Everybody Finds Out"... it's hard to say why someone other than Lindsey wrote the music.
Usually when the music to Stevie's songs was written by someone else, it starts out as an instrumental track that someone has given her, and she writes lyrics to it.

It's quite possible she wrote her lyrics at some point during the 'TISL' tour, to music that someone (Mike Campbell? Sheryl Crow?) gave her... which would explain why the music isn't written by Lindsey (if it indeed isn't).

So what did Lindsey, John and Mick do? I mean, did they have to play according to how the music was written, or just Lindsey and John?

This is wierd.

I'm not entirely sure if I understand the question, but I'll try to answer it.

The musicians in the band would do what all musicians do, they would play the song that was written... adding to it and elaborating upon it, with various instruments.
As a producer, Lindsey might fiddle with the tempo, or the arrangement, but it's highly unlikely that he would alter the melody, etc.... no matter who wrote it.

I think sometimes the idea of Lindsey "constructing" Stevie's songs, gets a little muddled.
He doesn't "write" the music to Stevie's songs, and I don't think he's ever completely overhauled her original melody... he simply molds the song into a finished product, by fine-tuning it in various ways.
He'll take Stevie's fairly straight-forward and simplistic chord structures, and build the instrumentation around them. He'll also decide which musical ideas from the original demo should be pursued, and which should be abandoned... like any good producer should.

(By the way, I'm in no way belittling the amount of work Lindsey does, production-wise and instrumentally... I'm just trying to clear up the idea that he basically writes the music to Stevie's songs. He follows Stevie's original idea, and enhances it so that it will have broader commercial appeal.)

Okay...I just thought that many times she would just write lyrics, and the band would just jam until they found the beat for the song. Ya know?

estranged4life · #12 03-03-2003, 05:27 PM

thanks for the info...I programmed the demos of the songs into my TDK DA-3826 system to see how they flowed, Not bad IMO...Brian J.

strandinthewind · #13 03-03-2003, 05:32 PM

I am still holding on to the thought that one of these songs is really Space Needle. I mean it could be Space Needle now has added lyrics and became Silver Girl or Everybody Finds Out couldn't it

Other than that - will April 15, 2003 EVER get here!

NoQuestionsAskd · #14 03-03-2003, 07:00 PM

I think there is still a chance "Everybody Finds Out" is a collaboration ala "Crystal"..lyrics by Stevie might mean music by Lindsey...

stefan · #15 03-03-2003, 07:27 PM

I think it`s great that somebody else offers Stevie a song melody. Seven wonders was great imo and from time to time she should be given a different idea like then.
