Maybe this is a sign of a new era to come. David called the album right here.
she does sound pretty decent here, better than other shows that have gotten posted. I do hate how she just rushes and mumbles through the words though.... and it's still kinda cringey how she often looks like she just doesn't connect with the music anymore... she used to really FEEL the music back in the day, even through some of the more recent FM tours.... this is just like...meh. (I get she may be bored with the same material after decades, but she's the boss and is the one who could change that and do stuff that interests her more... just saying ) Her movements also generally make it seem like she's in some pain or has some sort of issue/illness with her joints or something. I don't expect her skipping in high heels across the stage any more, but she was barely bending or even swinging her arms til a little bit at the very end.... Her costumes don't help, they make her look a lot bigger and bulkier than she really is... which again makes me wonder, is she trying to keep her joints or muscles warm or something? She's doing it, bless her, but.... kinda painful to watch

A few more things for the timeline:

In 1989 she recorded I Still Miss Someone (Blue Eyes) from TOSOTM.

In 1993 she recorded Destiny and Rose Garden for Street Angel.

She released It’s Late, a country duet with Chris Isaak.

I forget the year, but for Trouble in Shangri-La (2000?) she duetted with the Dixie Chicks on Too Far From Texas.

On In Your Dreams, she recorded For What It’s Worth, a country song.

In 2024 she duetted with Dolly Parton (even though it was a pop/rock song, it was with a country legend).

I think it was at Divas 2002.

I never really thought of the first four songs as country, and I’ve never heard Smiling Islands before. I can kind of see Garbo as a country song, though.

No Questions Asked has a country twang to me.

For me, #1 and 2 ARE country songs. #4 is not. I don't know #3.

Rose Garden is from your favorite Stevie album Street Angel.

I think you'd actually like it. It was written by her in the 60s but was released on that 1994 album.
