Also hope she leaves out Gold Dust Woman, Gold and Braid, and I Need To Know.

I could do without Dreams and Rhiannon, but that'll never happen. But she could easily drop Gold Dust Woman and swap in 2 other songs instead. It wasn't a single and wouldn't be missed as much as her other FM songs.

Anyway, here is my list:
1. Rhiannon
2. Dreams
3. Outside The Rain
4. Stand Back
5. Landslide
6. Gold Dust Woman
7. If Anyone Falls
8. Edge of Seventeen
9. Sisters of the Moon
10. Talk To Me

I could go on, but I'm going to leave it there.

Bwboy,

Funny about Whole Lotta Trouble. I love that song and actually turned someone into a Stevie fan with that song (along with Gold And Braid). It may not be her best but it certainly is not her worst in my opinion.

mmmm, let's see here...

1. Copa Cabana
2. Muskrat Love
3. All I Want to Do( is Make Love to You) (I kill two birds with one stone that way :) )
4. I've Never Been to Me
5. Light My Fire
6. Lights
7. Heard it From a Friend
8. Free Bird
9. Born to Run
10. Cheaper than Free

There, see, there are so many really bad songs out there, whatever she does do will be great. :)

Wow, you don't seem to like many of her hits! Although I know some have been overexposed, Talk to Me and If Anyone Falls don't fall in that category... she's taken those two songs a break plenty of times.

I just hope that SOTM isn't a song that she decides to clear the dust of off. She can't sing that song with the same intensity as she used to.

Bwboy, you got me all wrong. Just because I don't want to hear her perform "the hits" it doesn't mean I hate those songs. Let me make something clear: If Anyone Falls, Stand Back and Edge of Seventeen are among my favorites of her solo work. It's just that I would love to see her bring out deep album cuts and/or rarities.

She could swap If Anyone Falls with Bella Donna, Edge of Seventeen with The Wild Heart, and Stand Back with Sleeping Angel.

The only song in my list that I don't like at all is Talk to Me. I Could never get into that one.

Sorry for giving the wrong impression. :wavey:

:lol: You're both making these statements as if "Gold And Braid" was a constant staple in her solo tours. She hasn't performed it live in over 18 years. And before that, 15 years. It was only performed during the "Bella Donna" tour, a handful of "Wild Heart" shows and the "Enchanted" tour. Don't get me wrong, though. I love the song but it's such a "time capsule" tune that I really only equate with "Bella Donna". The "Enchanted" tour version paled in comparison and it's not a song I'd like to hear live ever again.




I doubt "Sisters Of The Moon" will EVER appear in a Stevie Nicks solo set. She's said many times it's a Fleetwood Mac signature song. Even when Jim Ladd suggested she perform it in Vegas, she "humored" him that it was an interesting suggestion, but of course it never happened. and you're right, BellaDonna, the song has lost a lot of its intensity on stage these days...but then she's in her late 60's and not under the influence of a lot of drugs anymore so there's that. I could list several more songs that have also lost that "intensity" from her wild, youthful, drug fueled days. :nod:

Agreed that she should NEVER do cover songs in her live shows anymore. "Rock And Roll" went on for TOO MANY tours! :( And "Circle Dance" and "Face The Promise" were two songs that were not only boring, but nobody knew what they were unless they were hardcore Bonnie Raitt and Bob Seger fans. Stevie's all about performing "deep cuts" of other artists' catalogs...but not her own? :rolleyes:




This one's a touchy subject for me. I think the album version is sublime and beautiful (HATED the music video, though) - but I'm in agreement that it doesn't translate live very well at all due to her propensity to BELT OUT most of her songs these days. The Tonite Show performance was difficult to watch. However, like Olive stated, I'd take it above the exceedingly over-performed songs like "Landslide" or "Gold Dust Woman".

I think she needs to give "Enchanted" and "If Anyone Falls" a rest. They've been a couple of her "go-to" live songs for quite a while now because they're easy for her. Hopefully she can find a nice vocal/musical arrangement of "Wild Heart" that will be both easy on her voice and majestic for the audience...but I also wouldn't mind it if she added a few more songs from the "Wild Heart" album to her set list, whether on this upcoming tour or for future tours. "Nothing Ever Changes" would be nice and can you imagine if she EVER pulled out "Sable On Blonde" for a live show? :eek: I'd die a happy Stevie fanatic!

I agree with Soldier's Angel. Only because she mentioned in a recent interview that she wanted to or had to sing this one. I appreciate the thought and the sentiment of the song and understand it's significance to Stevie. But I saw her perform this on the tour with Rod Stewart and it brought the entire show to a halt. Everyone was like - WTF. It just really stymied all of the energy and enthusiasm and killed all the excitement in the venue.

I want to have fun and be happy and escape from the world and my everyday problems when I go to a show. I don't want to listen to a slow clunky song about war and wounded soldiers for entertainment.

If she needs a slow ballad, bring back HAEWAFY. I know we heard it for years, but it's been gone a while. Or even Beauty and the Beast. I will cringe if she does Soldier's Angel again.

She has enough of a big back catalogue, both solo and with Fleetwood Mac, to fill a setlist of her own material. She's also overlooked over half of her solo career in her live sets for over 16 years. Even songs that were big hits get ignored.

I get that people want to hear "the hits", but bring out a few deep cuts each tour instead of random covers and balance that with the crowd pleasers.

In fact I've seen people here even praise other artists for their set lists and many times these artists play tons of covers per tour. Tom Petty is the first thing that comes to my mind. Yet stevie always gets blasted for playing covers. I think the short lived spontaneous performances of Circle Dance and Face the Promise were some of the best set lists decisions ever. Talk about unexpected. And unless you are also a die hard bob Seger fan how was face the promise not the same experience as her playing gold and braid in 1981?

So I would not be disappointed at all with an out of left field cover taking the precious space of one of her own songs, as long as it provides a great live stevie experience.

But this is excluding rock and roll and I need to know.

Why sing covers when she has so many songs in her own catalog she hasn't sang? I'd love it if she whipped out Sometimes It's a Bitch instead of Need to Know, for example. Or Doing the Best That I Can.
