[eddiekfan007]

Brilliant song... Very moving and calming

[mccoobs]

was this a result of her and Lindsey breaking? or a more intimate expression of Stevie and Mic's illicitness?

[zzxxqy]

Haunting, but with an important story to tell. Truly, this is one of Stevie's greatest works. Ever.

[deirdrec1]

Hauntingly beautiful..just like the woman!

[lavawax]

One of my top 5 Stevie Nicks' songs. Love it . Thanks for sharing!

[MrPDXJim]

~Lyrics~ And the reason that I paint you in my paintings And the reason I record the sound of your voices The beautiful and the sensitive and the oh so very young We are adapting to your silence I can live here without you At least I'm learning But I cannot live without your songs When this battle is over I feel I will survive In the battle of the dragon No one walks away Oh, you wish it to the end...wish it to the end!

[MrPDXJim]

I dont remember the movie and I have never heard this song before, thank you for adding it.

[gayconusa]

can somebody get the lyrics for this song? be nice.

[lavawax]

Probably one of the most important songs.

[MrWittlez]

Youtube need a 'Love!' button!!

[HaydenOran98]

I accidently, clicked dislike instead of like cuz i was so caught up in this haha! I Lovee this song. So no dislikes haha

[DrMickaelleDougherty]

An all time favorite.

[TheEarl666]

stevie nicks blows everyone else away!!!!!! her voice so beautiful

[Nightbirdrocks]

I love this thanks for posting!!!!!!!

[debrasanders17]

Stevie has comforted me so many times in my life. This is just one of many songs she has written that seems to see through my soul.

[whistlepig75]

The person who down voted must have been twirling like Stevie and got dizzy and hit the wrong one by accident

[TheFryguy82]

I love this song so much it's up there with Rhiannon and silver springs. I alsosort of wonder if this was written partly about going through drug addiction "I got the messege. Stay among the living?"And also about being withdrawn form friends and family because of it "And your friends start asking you why and you just say "nothing" " Also i think it talks about the physical torment of withdrawl "Keep that fury deep inside you, and wish it to end."

[sara31tx]

What dumb ass voted a thumbs down?

[sara31tx]

Love this song

[JoshuaTaylor]

I hadn't heard this song until I bought her boxed set, "Enchanted Works". (That disc 3 is *filled* with obscurities and is worth the price for that alone) and this song stopped me in my tracks when I first heard it. It still does. I'll love you forever and always, Stevie !

[VirtuosticAngel]

The mystic cords of life join together for a moment in time and space to bring a spritual child of the universe. Thanks Nicks for such a divine interlude in my ever changing life.

[TimelessBarbara]

Flawless. Timeless. Thank you!

[Predianto]

she's the reason the 80's was so cool

[velconstantcraving]

I'm pretty set in my ways, musically, in that I don't like very many '80s songs, but this song is just beautiful, regardless of when it was recorded. Her voice rips your heart right out of your chest and makes you eat, swallow and digest it. It can be effortlessly sensual one minute (eg., "Dreams") and then the next minute it wrenches your heart (eg., "Battle of the Dragon", the piano demo version of "Sisters of the Moon", the two famous performances of "Rhiannon" from 1976).

[Mr01271976]

stevie has a very beautiful voice and with her beauty makes her the most beautiful angel i have ever seen ----when i hear her voice it seems like i under her spell it take me to another place-----she is timeless she will NEVER get old -she epitomizes everthing a rock n roll queen should be ----LONG LIVE MY QUEEN OF ROCK AND ROLL ----and in music i hold her in the utmost respect

[48gezza]

Stevie, no more to say

[christyangelides]

She is very talented.

[vonsiems1963]

I had a huge crush on her when I was young, that Bohemian look, her sultry voice, her untamedness. She is still an enchanting woman.

[ladyfuschia]

@vonsiems1963 And does any contemporary female vocalist even come close?? HA! I don't think so!

[stevepaxify]

I am a die hard Stevie fan and yesterday was the first time I heard this. Beautiful

[DancesWithJoy]

she looks so young and she was 27 in 1975!!

[anastasia81472]

@DancesWithJoy Wow, I didn't know that! I was 3 - lol

[DancesWithJoy]

Just for the record, it is dragon not dragons :-)

[4570rifle]

Keeping the memories alive! Thank you!

[J77147]

LOVE STEVIE 5*****

[101Rockker]

This Song Kicks mutha fuckin Ass, I Love It!!!!

This Should Of Been On Rock A Little Album Cd.

Thats Why She's The Queen Of Rock 'N' Roll Forever!

[performingsys]

Listening to Stevie Nicks fires up a spirit inside of my heart and mind.. Always a great experience.. Stevie Nicks Rocks!

[gigi2698]

I love the shot of Stevie on the back of Bill Graham...before he got killed in that freak helicopter ride near San Francisco. That was a sad day ;-(

[amylinnlevi]

wow Stevie @ 1:27!!! the most gorgeous picture i've ever seen of her!!!!!!!!

[jjr7712]

she is not from this world. her music is unreal!

[misteraytch]

First time I ever heard this song. AMAZING!

[twiliterider]

Should be said like this: She is THE best!

[Hungie84]

This song is hard to download... Limewire sucks!!!

[bassretro1993]

I love this song so much... it gives me the creeps like a lot of Stevie's darker songs do.

Thanks

[MyzDefy]

To the poster of this vid..you got some really Awesome pics here...a few blurry...but i've seen some vids all were blurry...you've captured Stevie in many great moments! THANKS!

[MyzDefy]

Trashfished, that's why she "remains" a legend...all these chicks who are naked now...get old...and really...NO ONE wants to see that!

AlexisGuitar94...you and me both...my favorites ever!!!

[Trashfished]

she was an ok singer, but those stupid clothes she wore. never showed any skin and now noone would want to see it anyways.

[AlexisGuitar94]

I love women's voice... She and Ann Wilson are my favorites

[AnnaBananaoh11]

@AlexisGuitar94 me too Alexis!!! Stevie and Ann blow out every other female or male artist on this planet. They are amazing..and untouchable..always be my favorites too :)

[dreamzeppelinarcher]

@AnnaBananaoh11

I looked at your channel, and we too, are also alike with music. A lot alike.

This day just keeps getting crazier O.o

[dreamzeppelinarcher]

@AlexisGuitar94

Me and you;;

Are alike already!!!!

I love Stevie and Ann like no other

[secretworld1]

SHE IS THE BEST !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[cajunbaby1226]

stevie is awsome has the most beautiful voice love her songs

[gregcervantez]

"The beautiful, and the sensitive, and the oh, so very young." This song saved me at a time when my life started to change, I wasn't sure of the direction I was taking, and I needed words to comfort me. The melody still haunts me to this day. Stevie Nicks is a musical genius.

[TheEarl666]

@gregcervantez Stevie is the GODDESS of Music!

[goddessisis3639]

This is my favorite.

[sharon69n]

shes awesome and extremely pretty !!!!!!!!!!!!

[01WildWolf]

I never heard this song till today and WOW . Truly a great song glad I found it.

Stevie you are the best.

[david1513]

thats a work of art dont change the picture it makes stevie look supper nateral, finished work is finished never change a work of art after its done or asumed to be done! D/C

[gypsybasia]

I am not even sure what he is even talking about....

[pasadener]

well there's only one dragon in the title and there's only one stevie nicks. this is a classic hidden soundtrack song that should have been on ROCK A LITTLE and made it a better album!

[SRCUMMI]

I SIMPLY...LOVE U STEVIE!!!

[wmddn]

beutiful music

[MEXICAFOLKS]

Can anyone tell me if this was considered love making music back in the day?

[salome1980]

yes. it still is.

[silvasprings]

Although the meaning of this song has really nothing to do with love-making,

It's about her own battle, and the battle of the many great singer and players with drugs....

It is one of stevies best songs, and i wish for many more to be born!

[XXXxxxLillith]

very nice video !

A lot of pics i never seen before, good work. 5 *

I love the song as well. Stevie is a great inspiration for my own songs :)

[johnnymargaret]

Cool! Pics I've never seen before! Thanks!

[jache77]

keep that fury inside of you............you go stevie!

[ThePipersNicks]

If they'd have let her eh? Too bad for them I guess. Huge mistake.

All the songs they did together are great, and are also the best songs Tom Petty has ever recorded...and he has some good ones!

[NimraukoGalendel]

Actually she was asked to be an honorary heartbreaker. Tom didnt want to fuck up the harmony of fleetwood mac and rightly so. Its not like today where they will snatch someone from another band for their own.

[rockenrollertami]

The 'story' as told by Stevie was "I asked Tom if I could be an homorary heartbreaker and he said 'Stevie, You already are'" I think I say that on VH-1 storytellers, That was around the 'Tusk' w/Fleetwood Mac and her 1st. solo album 'Bella Donna' Stevie always stayed dedicated to Fleetwood Mac while juggling a million other projects. I LOVE HER!!! thanks for all the great posts...

[brilliantone909]

yea, if tom woulda let her, theyd be THE BEST, better then sunny n cher, or paul and linda.. damn that woulda been great

[moonflower0924]

Damn that voice!

[wildpepr]

Stevie has said that if they'd have let her, she would have joined T.P.'s Heartbreakers. I love her vocals w/Tom Petty.

[ThePipersNicks]

I am every 0:20 LOL.

This is one her best 3 songs of all time.

The vocals are unreal. Tom Petty's Heartbreakers band again I think.

[runinshadows]

at 4:20 i was

[shootmewithpotatos]

we're all stoned!

[Adrianafaith45]

At 3:43 she looks way stoned.

[jache77]

no she does not! asshole!

[jache77]

no she does not!

[Adrianafaith45]

She was so sexy back in the day. The girl rockers of today are no match.

[1lhotstuff]

i first heard this song, when her box set came out around 1996 or so, & i fell in love w/ this song right away! a true welsh witch!

[BourbonBellflower]

Beautiful!!!!!!!

[Rhiannon1978]

Thank you EVERYBODY for the lovely comments!

I love this song & Stevie too.

She's a real Goddess!Love..x

[BONEDOMEZ]

shes hot.has she ever been in playboy?

[kaltalseis]

no...

[jache77]

i love this song! great video! thanks kat dancer.

[CoyoteBuddy]

Magnificent! I've never heard this song before. Thank you so much for posting it.

[krustybiker]

Couple of years ago, my son bought me a Stevie Nicks album; went into the shop and said ".....by Stevie Nicks, whoever that is. I think HE's a pretty old singer" He wondered why the guy in the store was laughing. Ain't many other guys can sing like this! And very few women I can think of. What a voice, I think I love her!

[ipostrandomthings]

This is a great song, I love the pictures at the very beggining.

[tmpfan2]

I got this song from Napter way back in 00 before it went down, and it was the only recording I had of it. I love it so much and what fond memories it brings back.

[clampandbush]

..."The reason that I paint you in my paintings and the reason I record the sound of your voices"...

..."I can live here without you, at least I'm learning. But I cannot live without your songs"...

This is the most true lyrics I've ever heard! This is exactly what I, and all Stevie fans on this planet, think every day I guess...it's what we all think about Stevie.

But I think I couldn't live here without Stevie...

[ACELESAGE]

EXCELLENT

[ncranchguy]

The beautiful ... the sensetive ... and the oh, so very young ...

[johnc1970]

"Well I can, and I will, go on..."

[Rhiannon1978]

Yes,it's one of My Favorites to..I just can't get enough of it!

Heard the Demo's and I just LOVE them!Actually i love almost everything you've posted!! ;)

[may3ct]

This ~One~ Of My favorites, I have 3 Different Versions of This song on My page. 2 are demos *s*
