This is something special
Posted by David Hepworth on 15 January 2010 - 10:31pm.
Stevie Nicks singing along with a demo of "Wild Heart" in 1981 while having her make-up done. Don't look for this kind of thing in the future because everybody today is far too savvy to let anyone film them putting their make-up on.

Where's the bloke?
You know.. the special bloke with the straw who.. you know.. blows the you-know-what up her.. well.. you know.
Or was that rumour attached to Cher?
You mean...
Wot no anal cockage action then!
Coke-age?
I hope that's what you meant!
:-)

Next week, we'll have footage of David Bowie on the khazi, reading an Exchange And Mart, smoking a Woodbine and humming "John, I'm Only Dancing".
That was wonderful.
Despite the fact that there is a camera filming, she comes across as so natural; just enjoying singing her song. Her eyes are amazing... I love it when she looks straight at the woman doing her make up and sings to her. I have a warm fuzzy glow in me after watching that.
And what a voice she has... one of the very best in my opinion.
That is my favourite musical moment of 2010, and it's only January.
You said it
Just watched it , now smiling Patrick said the rest .
I'm not even a fan
But I thought that was lovely.
Her enjoyment is the key. To me it's the key to great live performance. When a musician is really enjoying what they are doing it gives that transcendant performance that elevates a good performance to a great one.
Outstanding
That would brighten up anybody's day.
Stevie
one day you will be mine.... oh yes.
*cackles in best dastardly tones*
Another female voice in the background?
Sounds pretty damn good too!
The third woman
I assume that the other person singing is the woman sitting to her left that SN keeps looking at throughout the clip. She certainly looks like she's singing but youcan't see her lips move!
La Nicks
The Rock Chicks' Rock Chick. The Licks. Sex on a Stick. A singular trick of being able to move your heart and stir your loins. "Dreams" amd "Landslide", "Sara", "Room's on Fire" - Candles. Wine. And y'know.
In the clip above you can see The Road and The Life and The Stuff starting to show as The Face has puffed a little beyond the contours of its previous perfection - but there remains The Voice chiming The Innocence and The Eyes suggesting its end
Fabulous.
Thankyou for posting that, you've brightened up a dismal wet Saturday morning. I can face Sainsburys with a smile in my (wild) heart now.
Wow
That is all
Slap application...
Near the end of the clip she talks about not liking to put too much make up on, but realizes that when people are looking at her in an enormodome she has to overdo it a bit and it doesn't look over the top.
If "She is not even fit" (see Formbyman)
Who the FUCK is?!
Kirsty Gallagher
.
zzzzzzzzz
Lad mag sports tottie. No class. Oh, and it's 'Gallacher' I believe.
I just knew
I had seen that hair somewhere before 8-}

She's not even fit...
... and the only thing interesting about the Fleetwood Mac story is that they were all off their tits on coke shagging each other - coz the music was trans-atlantic shite.
A question
Up to you if you don't like it but what's the crossing of an ocean got to do with it?
Well...
for one thing, they'd never have met if they hadn't crossed that ocean - unless they went the long way round.
Oh
I see. And doesn't that apply to most acts working in the rock and roll idiom? Isn't it a form of music that has its roots in the emigration of British and Irish folk music to the United States where it rubbed shoulders with the African/American music that had grown up there as a result of slavery? And then - in the fifties and sixties - came back here? I thought the very trans-atlanticism of the cultural trade was what made it interesting.
er - no
most acts consist of members from the same country.
I think you are speaking metaphorically (?) whereas Formbyman was speaking literally - referring to the anglo american line-up of the band.
You made your point though. You should do more of this writing lark.
Formbyman rather haughtily asserted that
the music was 'trans-atlantic shite'. Not the membership of the band.
I know that version of the Mac was distinctively transatlantic, but the cultural exchange that DH referred to is surely a musical one, not just a mix of passports?
sometimes we reply to the
points we think or wish the poster made rather than what they actually said - that used to, quite rightly, annoy DH. I know I'm guilty of it at times. You and DH are referring to the first post by Formbyman, not the second one which I was referring to.
DH is - as usual - correct in what he says about the transatlantic mix of most pop/rock music - you, however, appear to have used 'haughtily' instead of 'accurately' ;-)
I love this clip so much...
I must have watched it about 30 times now. It captures something so fundamental about the joy to be found in singing... the money, drugs, stardom and adoration are all well and good, but this is why people start to make music in the first place.
It is great
But is it only me who thinks the make-up girl is stood there thinking "That's lovely, Stevie, but will you please just shut up, stand still, and let me get this pigging slap on your face?"
I didn't think that
But I got the GLW to have a look and that is exactly what she said.
Never paid her more than cursory attention before but
wow, that is lovely.
Thank you.
Too savvy - probably no
Personality and drug use aside, SN was probably well aware she was gorgeous enough to get away with that, with or without makeup, whereas many womenfolk in the media probably couldn't.
Slight tangent.... I accidentally ran into a whole bunch of bikini model contestants at a hotel I was staying at (really, just business many moons ago) and was struck that up close and in the flesh (well, in the lift and lobby), I wouldn't have called more than 5% of them attractive in any way. Probably lovely girls if you get talking to them (I didn't), but on the purely superficial surface level....
